SCP-564 | Incomplete Primitive Cyborg (SCP Orientation)
[Music] item number scp-564 object class safe special containment procedures scp-564 is to remain on the assigned betting at all times due to the fragility of scp-564-1 contact with scp-564 requires special clearance for testing purposes only for its own safety access to its point of origin is to be restricted to those with approval for testing anything removed from the area is to be kept in the same container as scp-564 communication with scp-564 requires level three or higher clearance communication is to be recorded via audio recording devices addendum communication now required to be recorded visually as well communication with scp-564 is now restricted to written notes with its available hand description scp-564 was located in data expunged which appeared to have been abandoned for at least five years several commonplace tools were contained within the room along with a few objects of unknown purpose or identity scp-564 appears to be a construction assembled of various materials resembling an adult female human of exactly 1.5 meters in height the outer shell of its form making up most of the body is primarily compressed sandstone with traces of an unknown material inside the limbs chest and head runs a network of poorly insulated copper wire and rubber tubes which carry a golden brown fluid of unknown composition eyes resembling those of a normal person are large pearls there is also a small gap where our mouth would be but aside from a rough shape no other external body parts of normal humans have been replicated on the construction scp-564-1 resides in a cavity accessed by a panel on the chest region of scp-564 it appears to be a large transparent and slightly luminescent blob surrounded by an iron ring with numerous holes in the edges it is assumed to be highly elastic as portions are stretched through holes in the iron ring and held in place with large orange nails of an unknown alloy currently scp-5641 contacts the ring in such a way in nine different locations around the ring a network of wire appears to connect to each location and run to various points within the structure of scp-564 scp-564 is sentient it appears to have severely limited control over the constructed body and unless otherwise noted is completely immobile the following observations have been recorded to date it can move the right arm freely small movements of the left index and ring digits have been noticed we can move the left leg freely at any point below the kneecap structures resembling eyes are active however only the right eye can move freely scp-564 claims to have been human at one point its identity before its current form is assumed to be data expunged it was recorded missing in 19 however there is currently no evidence to support this addendum testing of scp-564 is restricted until speech can be regained see test log five sixty four four test log five sixty four one test approved by o5 and carried out by dr tools used forceps and a nail recovered from the site of discovery of scp-564 subject scp-564 scp-564-1 was manipulated with forceps scp-564 noted feeling pains in the left leg below the hip nail was then brought into contact in the same area and the level of pain reportedly intensified forceps was used to manipulate without removing other nails in the iron rings surrounding scp-564-1 a number of sensations occurred in various locations around the body seemingly associated with a specific nail test log 564-2 test approved by o5 and carried out by dr tools used forceps and a nail recovered from the site of discovery of scp-564 subject scp-564 a portion of scp-564-1 was extended away from the central mass with forceps subject complained of pain in the left wrist it was manipulated into a hole in the iron ring where doctor inserted a nail in a fashion that resembled the others subject experienced intensified pain in the wrist area and the right leg began to move erratically test was forcibly ended after scp-564 refused to cooperate test log 564-3 test approved by o5 and carried out by dr tools used x-ray machine drill hammer forceps and a nail recovered from the site of discovery of scp-564 subject scp-564 a portion of scp-564-1 was extended away from the central mass with forceps subject complained of pain in the right hip doctor attempts to find an opening to the corresponding part of the body to no success drill used to create a hole into corresponding part to no success hammer used to shatter the outer sandstone layer to no success x-ray machine brought in and corresponding part was viewed wires running through the area were noted and one that connected to that area was traced back to the iron ring of scp-564-1 portion of scp-564-1 manipulated through the corresponding hole and a nail was inserted in a fashion that resembled the others subject complained of slightly increased pain movement of the hip was noted when subject was asked to attempt to move the leg nail removed and test was ended test log five sixty four four test approved by o5 and carried out by doctor tools used x-ray machine and forceps subject scp-564 a nail on the ring of scp-564-1 was chosen at random x-ray machine brought in and wires extending from the ring of scp-564-1 were traced a short distance away to the right of the base of the neck forceps used a whole portion of scp-564-1 held by the nail and the nail was removed subject started moving erratically with available body parts internal liquids suddenly vomited and subject lashed out at doctor attempts at communication with subject were met with silence due to the reaction of scp-564 towards doctor portion of scp-564-1 being manipulated was lost to the central mass test was forcibly ended after scp-564 refused to cooperate loss of speech was noted conversation log 564-14 doctor please tell me anything you remember between now and expunged scp-564 i was returning home from expunged a man approached me he assaulted me and covered my mouth with something until i fell unconscious doctor do you know who he was scp-564 no doctor continue scp-564 when i came to i couldn't see or hear or feel anything except for a faint throbbing pain all over my body i don't know how long i remained like that eventually i heard a terrible static noise that lasted minutes until the sound became the voice of a man muttering to himself i can't remember what he said after that point occasionally a point on my body would hurt intensely for a moment before returning to normal sometimes i'd be able to feel normally with an arm or a leg shortly afterwards but most of the time it didn't last long eventually my vision came back too i was in the room that you people found me in doctor did you ever leave that room scp-564 no doctor was there anybody else there scp-564 yes i think it was that man i saw before i blacked out doctor how about any others like yourself scp-564 i don't know there were other things that looked like people some of them laying on tables but none of them moved doctor continue scp-564 i don't remember much else the man looked like he was working on something on my chest but after a few days he didn't come back i was laying there for a very long time until eventually you people found me doctor how long scp-564 i don't know it felt like an eternity maybe years i was unable to sleep the entire time end of

Excel Sumifs multiple columns multiple criteria
in this video i'm going to teach you how to use subs with multiple columns and i'm going to show two variations of it that will help you use sumifs with multiple columns faster so let's get into it so we have with us this data where we have date source website platform and visits as you can notice there are two different sites available and the platform that we have is mobile and web so i have two different columns and i want to summarize the visits based on the website and the platform to begin with i'm going to show you how we can use sumifs with just one column i'm going to use first some ifs here now with sumifs i'm going to take some range as visits this is what you want a summary of and that's why this is going to go in the first column now unlike the sum if the sum range goes towards the end the criteria range and criteria comes here first but in some ifs you have the sum range first and then you have multiple criterias later on so now next we need to select the criteria range so the criteria range is going to be website here and that's the column that i selected and then i will select site1 the value that it holds is present here so i'm going to select that so i'm going to select this particular value and now i will have the sum of site 1 visits in this particular data right so if i had to sum up all the rows that have site 1 in it and sum it up that would be 75 233 that's the number that we got right and so if i drag this formula down i should be getting the sum of visits for the site 2 that is this right and that is 84 292 which is what we got here now if we have to upgrade the same thing or the same formula to two columns this is how it's going to be done right so if you have you have the criteria range here and the criteria one here now you just need to say comma and extend that particular criteria so let's do it again and write for multiple columns right so it's going to be sum ifs some range is going to be this one here comma and i'm also going to use the criteria range one that is website comma and this time i'm going to give site one as the input right this is the first criteria next i will select the second criteria range this is this is the platform where it contains mobile and web and so now i need to give a second criteria right so this is how it goes guys multiple columns multiple criterias right so if you see here this is basically your criteria range one and then this is criteria range two and along with it the filters or the criteria if i close this bracket say enter i will be getting four mobile site 1 34 770 right so basically if you take all the mobiles for site one here um that will be 34 770 which is what we got here and so if i now copy this down i will get 40 463 for web visits and so if i sum up these two it should be idly equal to the site one visits here right now next if i had to do the same formula for site 2 it's going to be a simple copy and paste if i just copy and paste this down you'll see the same formula applies but just these values change and that is why i'm able to get these values and the sum total is equal to 84 292 which is what we want now next so i told you i'll be showing you another simpler example for this and this time it's more like pivoting data right so if i basically insert a pivot table here and expand this a little bit if i take let's say website and platform and save visits so this is how i get the summary now if i change the layout a little bit it's going to be similar to what we saw in the sum of multiple examples here so if i go to the design tab and say subtotals at the bottom of the group and report an inserter blank row report layout more of a tabular form and let's show this at the bottom yeah so this is how you will basically get the summary that we have here if i had to put it in pivot table but the way that we are going to modify now is that i'm going to take platforms to the columns area and then you will see that you get a totally new summary which is much more concise and much more readable along with the grand totals that is available here right so this is what we are trying to recreate in the second example so the second example i have the summary placed here where i have site 1 and 2 and then mobile and web here and now i want to get the use sumifs to basically get the value here so we'll begin by doing something like this i'll say some f's the sum range is going to be visits here comma the criteria range is site 1 here and site 2 that is websites comma now this is the tricky part if i select this i need to press f4 once twice and thrice to basically fix the column so if i copy this cell towards the right hand side the h will remain h but then if i copy it down the seven should be changing to it and that's why i fixed only the column in this case next if i select the other criteria range and then select the criteria for platform it's going to be mobile so in this case you have to fix the row so if i say f4 once and twice now you notice the row will be fixed that's because i don't want this criteria to move down but i want it to move right hand side because it needs to change to web right so that's how i basically use the subway function just change the fixing logic a little bit and so if i do enter and copy this formula and paste it for all the four cells you'll see i'll get this summary that i have which is equivalent to what i have generated here right so these are the two methods of how you can use sumifs with multiple columns to generate a summary this is the first summary this is more like a tabular format where we get this output and this is more like a cross table format where you get the value and it's much more summarized with grand totals and totals visible much more easily and to just call it out you'll see that it's also very similar to how you do things on pivot table and this is actually what's going on in the background when you are using pivot tables thank you for

King David tumb in Mount Zion aconflict between Judaism & Christianity
good morning everyone my name is Robbie daniela so we're here in jerusalem by the grave of King David and we want to describe the conflict between Jewish and Christian Judaism Christianity Judah Christian conflict and will go along and explain our position what we think about the conflict let's get inside and look at the place and then we can start with the explanation you as we can see we can see here Sarkoja right here and this place that was the place where King David to be Ark of the Covenant from adamak ET and he brought it here for 44 years the Ark of the Covenant was here because the Temple of Jerusalem was not built yet God didn't give a permission to King David to to build the Talmud Jerusalem despite the fact that he was seeking to build it so therefore the Ark of the Covenant was right here and King David used to live in the tower and he did want to build for his own a castle because there is no building there is no temple for a foot for the God of Israel so he didn't want to bid for himself a castle or house a nice house as a king because God of Israel have no temple yet so he King David was the one that founded the concept and he is the cornerstone the concept of the temple he was seeking but asking from God to build the temple I got told him you're not gonna build a temple your son gonna build temples so he was trying to gather gold and silver and diamonds and whatever all treasures for the temple to be built in the future and he wrote The Book of Psalms in order for the Levites to read it before the altar while the sacrifice will take place in the temple of Israel in the temple Jerusalem when it will be built now as we can see here we can see huge big stones right here then we are on the first floor huge stones we're gonna go even further deeper to see the rocks and stones underneath to understand that its form the earth for example and even prior to the first temple and and it matches our tradition to tradition of King David was buried here and besides when we look up were here over over our head take a look at take a look at at this point where the huge big stones ended and then smaller stones was built in the 1300 see which can provide us an information that second thought was not built was I exist was not in existence it was built the second floor was built 800 years ago and the last upper room could not possibly be over our head or in over a King David tomb and besides as we can see and we can see the place people coming here to Dublin to pray and we have here a little space in between the wall and the tomb which was the entrance to the cave underneath King David and the city just cover it up recently for two years or three years ago and we show how they cover it up so let's go down underneath and see the huge stones that matches the rocks and the stones of the western wall to understand that the first floor it was built in the era of the first temple and the upper floor was not even in existence at that time or of the Second Temple you as we can see right here we can see the stones there just like the stones in in the western wall very huge big stones that can be a comparable evidence that the tomb of King David belonged to the era of the first temple or even prior to the first Temple of Jerusalem and that's the right place for the tomb of King David while when we look when we saw upstairs we saw right above over the soldier with the the over the head we saw as smuggle stones that was built in the 1300 BCE which is like a hub years ago and couldn't possibly be the Last Supper room because the last program was not existed in the time of the Second Temple Jerusalem all of the archaeologists agree that the there was no second floor above the timber King David and therefore that's not the right place besides we have to understand that according to the Jewish tradition it's impossible to do the Last Supper over a grave in a cemetery that was this area was a cemetery this area was a grave of King David you don't go as a Jew of keeping the Jewish tradition and and taking a place inside a cemetery over the grave of King David and we we also have to understand that all what all the claims of Christianity there is a conflict among Christians whether this place is a the Last Supper room for example the Protestants are not coming here at all they don't think they don't consider the Last Supper as the right place it's it's a it's a big debate among themself and besides if if we if we want to really to understand what's going on there we we claim that they're trying to build a legend over our head for example they could could pick up any other place in claim that it's the room of last there's a lot superb room but they Christianity chose or the branches of Christianity that chose this place they picked up very precise over the tomb of King David to claim that King David died like any other human being and Jesus overtook him and he rose erected from the death on his back and he replaced him so therefore they need to pick up exactly this place and again they want to create another legend of another new religion and overtake Judaism and therefore they want declaring that the new testament emerge and was created and the universal the universal church was created right here above the tomb of King David because it's symbolized the Ark of the Covenant that was here for 44 years the Old Testament that like if it's passed away and then the New Testament emerged over over their head so in order to create the legend they had to pick up this place but if we really want to know what's going on then we have to dig into the theology of Christianity and according to the theology of Christianity and we have the four Gospels Martin Marcos Lucas John John is the fourth gospel and he contradicted the synoptic gospel which is Mattie Marcus Lucas the synoptic Gospels Matty Mauk was Lucas claim but the Last Supper was little sadder parts of Passover Seder but then John contradict them and claimed no it was the eve of Passover why is it that the Gospels the fourth Gospels which is the latest one contradict the synoptic Gospels because he was was the last one any understood that if he want to claim that Jesus was the lamp of Passover he had to wait as the truth according to our tradition we're to sacrifice the lamp of Passover in the eve of Passover so so the Last Supper couldn't possibly be so he must die in the eve of Passover so it's impossible to claim that the Jewish people took someone to kill in the holiday he understood John understood that and he understood that that in he understood that in order to claim a juice is the land of Passover and he is a sacrifice of Passover you have to to grow according to the Jewish tradition and to follow so therefore we have to understand what is the lamp of Passover well according to the Jew tradition God took us out of Egypt and he told us take the god of the Egyptian which is the lamp of Passover they used to worship the lamp used to worship horse which is the lamp and how is it say the god son of the Egyptian he was born in a virgin birth to Isis and he was conceived in a miraculous way and and and Isis I got got pregnant from from özil ease the her brother in a miraculous way according to the to to the Pharaohs tradition set tear apart or Zyliss and he took his body part and threw it all over Egypt and then Isis his his sister was mourning she was mourning over her brother and then she was collecting her he's a body part from all over but she couldn't find the certain parts and that and then according to nature she couldn't even get pregnant out of him because she couldn't find the right parts for that but a miracle occur and then azules rose erected from the death and then she was conceived in a miraculous way and she delivered in a virgin birth horse which basically the entire story of Christianity is the Egyptian story the Christianity it's a stretch arm of the Egyptian culture the different names in different metaphor and then they try to pour into the symbols of the Jews which is said their Passover cellar which is a a very holy and sacred meal and an end tradition to pour inside Egyptian concepts and they're basically again they're over our head trying to take Judaism and to pour inside the Egyptian culture that's Christianity for us so therefore the fight between the God of the Egyptian and God of Israel that took us out of it yet continued nowadays and we got to understand that that that's what exactly the New Testament even even even claim in a stupid way to take the the god of the Egyptian to claim that Jesus is because of the Egyptian that's what they're doing the Gospel of John claimed that when Jesus was on the cross a Roman soldier took her knife and appears him on his side and blood and water came out of his side but his bones were never to be broken why is it because according to the Jewish tradition when we take the lamp of Passover were not allowed to break his bone so in order to fulfill the prophecy which is not even a prophecy it's a command command it's not a prophecy but anyways in order to fulfill the prophecy that's what Christianity claimed that's what the New Testament planned the Gospels of John then the bones of Jesus was not broken so clearly we see according to the New Testament Jesus symbolize the the was Osiris or horse the gabble of the Egyptian and we got to understand that according to the Jewish tradition we have to roast the lamb and not to cook it in or in order for the smell to spread all over the country so the egyptian will smell it and and then they will remember that since the 10th of the month of Nisan which is according to the horoscope that's the land horoscope and and in when the Egyptian when the Egyptian came to the house of the of the Jews detect them to to a ward on the field then to enslave them in the morning then they saw the land tied to the bed and they thought that they that the Jewish people want to worship Him to worship the God of the Egyptian but then by the fourteenth day of Nisan we had to slaughter the god of the Egyptian to take the blood to put it on the door so and and not to fear the Egyptian not to fear the God of the Egyptian and the influence of the stars because we're we belong to God we belong to Hashem we're aural stars Nitza it's an infinitive Israel we're above the stars we belong to her shell dad told us give us a condition you want to live Egypt physically okay so you have to live Egypt spiritually to live their own God not to believe in him to slaughter him when exactly in the middle of the month when the moon is full and when the Sun is in Nissen month and the influence of the stars of the land over the earth planet Earth is the most stronger when the Egyptian worshiping it then at that time don't fear him be belong to me a slaughter the God of the Egyptian and we have to do it not to break his bone because bones because if the Egyptian will enter to our house after day so they smell the smell and then they saw the blood in in at the door and then they break the door and walk inside they will be able to see a comparable evidence so it's not a stake of a cow or any other meat but their own God and if they come while we scale the the land then they will see a complete lamp we're not allowed to cut him to portions or to but but a complete land and so they will see their own guy on on the fire why is it we have to believe but because we don't believe in the God of the Egyptian that's not exactly why the miraculous of the of living a jet from and living the Exile and and and walking out of Egypt to the Land of Israel will occur the because we don't believe in the God of the Egyptian that's why we have to have our shoes on we have to have our stick and our pack on our back when we eat the land of Passover because we want to show the Egyptian that we're God is about to create a miracle and because we don't be living there on that we are about to live Egypt God will will create America of living Egypt and from from exile to Redemption now by by the but what we see here is a tried to create a legend and and to try to try to overtake Judaism and in many ways by putting the room of the Last Supper right above the tomb of King David symbolically by using the Most Holy Tradition which is the Passover Seder and pouring into it the Christian concept which is even at organic because they do be living in the in the that the when they drink the wine they believe that it become the blood in their mouth and literally and I believe that when they eat the matzah that's a flash of of Jesus and then it become in miraculously in our mouth as a flesh so they're very currently basically very cannibalistic I'd say a very poor Ganic ritual they have nothing to do the commends of the Torah which basically not allow us to do such a thing it's a contradiction to the Torah law so therefore if I would like to sum everything then I would say there is a reason for us in order to overtake another culture you have to create a legend over over their head but we do know that the Vatican basically want to relocate the Vatican and bring it to the mount of Zion right here not the Second Vatican the first Vatican gonna be here in order to rule a world and to create a world religion and and therefore they have a that's that's a place where conflict some Christian claims now we don't if the the fact that King David is very bearing here and you believe in it it's also a legend but that's not sure we do know that those Christians denominations of coming here believing that King David is being buried here but why mean we know that because they asked from the Israeli government to give them five times a year the opportunity to enter to the tomb of King David not to the upper floor to the second floor but to the to the - King David - to what what for to do the nice inside if they don't believe that the King David is being buried here they don't believe that the Jewish tradition that over 3,300 years is true why is it that you are asking from the Israeli government and from the Israeli police to grab us out waste our to fill in our head in the middle of the of shashlik deafening with this affectaura opening with our talents by force with insult Minh and then allow all the priests on or the bishops of the Greek Orthodox Greek Church and the Catholic Church to enter to the place and to do their own maze by the supervising of the Israeli police the supervising of the Israeli government because they do believe that it's not a legend so why is it that they claim such a thing basically they want to deceive the police population it's a conspiracy that the Vatican is trying basically the Vatican is trying to deceive the population by financing desk evasion the our killer archaeologic vision in the valley down there to claim that the city of King David is down there and not up here in the hill but it's impossible that King David will protect the city of Jerusalem from underneath the valley must be a poor general to choose such a thing he must and we had a comparable evidence that's the the house of of weapon the house of the heroes where when they put their weapon we were able to find it archaeologically and it's right here up the hill it's not down there and we had we were able to to find out our killer our archaeologic founds here for example the Tower of the walls of the first temple and the second temple that was circling this mountain so this mountain was was inside the walls and in order to protect the city you have to be inside the wall it cannot be outside the wall besides we have we know that King David was buried here and the question is according to the law of the Jews we cannot the the inside the inside the walls we have to keep it clean pure so therefore there was a tunnel underneath from the grave of King David to the river outside of the walls which is a Sheila and to keep it the claim but when where the place where Christianity claim where Jesus was buried the go gold that place it's just impassable place to to bury at that time of the Second Temple because it was inside the wall it was very far from the second temple wall that circle the city so and there is Tunnel from that can take the unclean a unpure thing from of the dead body out of the city so it's a legend that Christianity was created besides I going to the rule the governmental rule patrician are not allowed to to do Mesa complete Mesa which is which mean with all the symbols to engrave on the floor across to light up candles to bring their icons of the of the cross of like in the height of a four meter or two and a half meter or to do the mist allowed to sing I don't have to do they're not allowed to run allowed to do a Mesa but then they don't keep the rules they do their Mesa the light-up smell and all the ceremonies that we know that according to the rule and according to the status quo are allowed to do they broke the law here in the last program and even when they allowed to enter to the king baby tomb in the first floor just to mammal prayer with her lips they'll also do all the ceremonies with all their symbols even though it's a synagogue even though it's a bet members when we study Torah even though it's a middle of prayer of a Jewish prayer with was that the filling on our head and and and and cetera open and with a big insult meant by grabbing us outside from the tomb of King David so they can do their own ceremony and break the law and you cannot claim anything because probably that they can have a lot of force and a lot of influence of the Israeli government and they dictate what to which law to be applying which one not to be applied and probably it's being a selective application of the law which is not - not for us but probably more to appreciate the Vatican and in the Orthodox Greek Church rather than to appreciate the native Jewish people and their own tradition that's a shame as we can see here you can see two sets of steps the steps were the unpure people used to walk down the steps and after getting baptized they used to climb this day the the other set of steps behind it so they won't touch one another and that's a place where King David used to get baptized to purify himself a year ago right here in this place we can see here stones and rocks this place will suddenly open a world work a whole world open underneath the wall and right here we can see there we can see the walls of the German Church nearby we have the Greek Orthodox Church but then where the priests and monks right away they came to cover it up so nobody will enter to that place because right underneath the church there is a lot of rooms and treasures of King David Barry for Solomon King didn't use them for the first temple when he built it but he kept them for the third temple now was many people that were trying to enter to the cave in order to rob or to bad intention or to enter to the to the treasure places and to rob them and for example for example holders with his two guards enter and to to rob the place to take the treasure of King David or settlement the king hide them but King David Metta swore with angels to protect the place with third temple so the angel will give the key to the Messiah for the real Messiah to build a third temple so the two guards of holders died right inside were Tongo fires two tongues of fire burned them up and how those left and left the place and since then he didn't come back to himself he was you know it's kind of a terrified feel till today died yeah that he we have a lot of legends about the place a hundred and twenty years ago when the mandatory Turkish used to rule the pet of the place there was two painters a father and his son but used to paint for the Turkish government and since it was a Muslim holiday so they left them along and they decide to enter to the cave when they enter they saw a big huge Bell and in writing in Hebrew writing was a big sign that said the the graves of of the kings of Judea and they saw the grave of Salomon King the grave of his key all the king of the grave of King David and they they bent right away because they saw a big light and they they they were sure that they're about to die certain mumbled prayers and they were able to leave the place alive we have that testimony of the painters that were giving to to the big rabbis back then and they took her a draw of the place exactly what they saw so we have the evidence of the painters we have also some other evidence of the people that were trying to enter two priests that were trying to try to enter eight hundred years ago and then when they enter a big storm make them fall to the ground and for 24 hours they lost their consciousness and they were you know right there inside inside the cave on the floor and after they woke up the ran away and they came to their high priest and he went to Rabbi Avraham Koons vom Constantine and he asked him he told him what happen and then I'll be able hum told them ok let's enter together week from now and and see what's going on underneath so 24 hours after those two monks that enter were found on their bed the dead so I'll be able I'm figured okay it's not a will of God so they shut down all the place and there is no no enter to the cave as we can see we can see the trees like bending to the King King David that was buried right here and so it's it's another phenomena we that we can see it clear but by the year 67 they the Jewish people could not go to the Western Wall they used to put here 10 that's the place but they used to build their tent in in hoggish of world in Passover and to stand here and to come in 2000 by the by the Last Supper room which was a synagogue and I'd like to add one thing UNESCO claimed that mama Rachel Rachel the tomb of Rachel is not a place there is an Arab a shaft that they're there and in salon in the cave of one above the other father's no that's not the real place and the Jewish people have nothing to do with the western wall or the amount of that of the temple of Salomon of course they will say so they go with the New Age movement now going by the books of Alice Bailey which prayer prioritize Lucifer over the God of Israel over the God of the Bible so therefore they're trying to pull the carpet I'm from underneath the Jewish people and their tradition because there is a culture fine we are not impressed with on ESCO they have no no credit and we don't really care what they say because they're not entitle to contradict 3,300 years of history and tradition that we have here used to come doesn't pray through the thousands of years through the era of the first temple second temple we know our way UNESCO before before anezka was created King David and our fathers and our tradition used to be existed I thank you for listening as we can see here in the mount of Zion you can see the house of here whether where they used to put the heroes that used to protect the city is to put here their weapon so we have an archaeological proof that the City of David was here up the hill like we expect from the wise heroes from a wise general to protect the city from the height not from the valley and therefore we we know that this place was the place of the city of the real place of the real city of King David now we we know that we're not allowed to excavate here but that's something that supposed to do to rise questions why is it that nobody here we can see stones just like in the Kotel just like in the western wall why nobody come here to dig what they're trying to hide whether they're trying to cover we're trying to cover the truth we're trying to convince us to go to the to the valley and to be convinced that the City of David is right there and not here so they can take over besides we have evidence that the walls of the first temple and the second temple were you know circling the mountain and and therefore when therefore we know that the city of of Zion is inside the walls to protect the city from within and we have here the American University American College that covering up another archaeologic fan which is the tower of the two walls that meeting together from the south and from the west and that and right in the middle was a tower and we have that archaeologic found right inside that American College where it was built right above it so we do know for sure that that's the place now here was the entrance to the city the entrance today to the cave which filled up with a lot of sand now and they have to dig inside to find that big entrance to the tomb to go to and to visit the the real tomb of King David and inside the inside the Zion mountain unfortunately a we can see here a lot of cemeteries of the Greek Orthodox and the Catholic and they want to be buried right here because according to the legend a Jew he revealed himself according to Luke and and and John in Jerusalem but that there is no evidence that it was here like we told you there is no specific place and besides there is a lot of contradictions between the tradition or the Christian and I think that in order to sum all that when we have when when the Christian tradition is so unclear so obscure cannot go and build a legend and and insult some other people and native people that live here that have that inherit the blessing of the Bible and there are they a ascendant of Abraham Isaac and Jacob and and try to overtake their symbols and to pour inside a Christian oil and to try to and to overtake Judaism with and I would say personifying a the Jewish symbol and overtaking it and abusing it and converting it to Christianity I thank you very much for listening and I hope you enjoyed my explanation here and pay attention to the contradiction of the New Testament and the contradiction between the Christian tradition itself about the place

Snorkeling for Wild Scallops in Nova Scotia
[Music] what is going on guys this is noah with northern scavenger and welcome to this week's video a couple weeks ago i filmed a video of me snorkeling on the south shore of nova scotia looking for scallops i did not find any scallops but i had a great time looking around at all the lobsters and sea creatures and see life that are down there let's address the white elephant in the room this is not a dungeon this is actually my basement in my house and i use this as a staging area i've been thinking about getting back out there ever since i went out and thanks to you guys you gave me a lot of great tips on where to actually find scallops so this video is a scallop redemption i'm heading back out with my friend kyle who you guys might remember from an old video we ran the bangs falls whitewater event here in nova scotia where we used a radisson canoe we ended up sinking it and you know how the saying goes if you sink a canoe with someone you guys remain friends so in this video we head back out looking for scallops in a new spot new opportunities and i'm excited to share this one with you all right we just got to our spot here and from what i've learned from you guys is scallops like a silty sandy bottom with a current and we found this spot that has all the bright conditions we're very optimistic that this is gonna be the spot uh kyle's already in the water i just got my wetsuit on already soaking wet with sweat got about to join them let's see if we can get them here's the belt i use for work a little nature of weight belt i used my only work belt i sacrificed it to the ocean gods to make this video and to try to get some scallops all right five pounds heavier let's do this [Music] i came across this jelly filled pumpkin looking thing that was attached to this rock i tried doing a little research to figure out what this was not too sure but if you guys know it please comment below [Music] every time i dive it seems like there's a whole new terrain down there and there's a different abundant sea creature this time i found a lot of these northern sea stars from my research and from you guys i learned that scallops like a silty sandy bottom with eelgrass and that's exactly what we're seeing here very optimistic it's just a matter of time [Music] so you guys know how i like to catch that majestic casual b-roll [Music] look at that kelp just dance in the water i almost forgot we were scallop diving and i got lost in nature [Music] i spotted the shell on the ocean floor to my surprise when i opened it up there is a purple sea star inside hell yeah first scallop that's [Music] so just like that we're on them once we found the bed they were everywhere and we got really good at finding them [Music] we found a lot of them were hiding below the seagrass if you look close enough they look like a white wallet [Music] so [Music] not only did we find a lot of scallops there were also a lot of scallop shells sometimes we got tricked [Music] when you're scallop diving in nova scotia it's very important to be familiar with the regulations because across nova scotia there are different size limits as well as different seasons where we were the size limit was 10 millimeters that is about the size of my palm of my hand so if it's anything smaller than my palm i know that it's too small to harvest [Music] so [Music] in nova scotia the bag limit per day is a hundred scallops it's very important to snorkel and harvest them sustainably you don't want to wipe out an entire bed we left a lot of scallops there and we did not take our maximum bag limit [Music] what do we got here we got a bag beautiful scallops i think we're going to try a raw one apparently you can do that i'm not sure how to cut oh my god i can see the muscle look at that i don't want to put your finger in there off the side of the shelf right like that and it opens up i'm not sure what what tool would be best for you you got a longer what's that and that's a fillet knife yeah it's probably going to dull your blade whatever we do whatever oh you didn't like that eh no there's a scallop right there this guy the inductor muscle i'm gonna go like this i guess and some people eat the row but in nova scotia it is illegal to eat the row really for some reason let's go for it hey you get that one i ate this one wow it's sweet yeah wow that's really good it's good really good that is so good i was expecting it to be chewy it's like it just melts in your mouth oh my god i've never had a raw scallop before we got in here there's two sides there's the bigger side and the flatter side and the abductor what i need to cut is the flatter side so then at the back here there's a little opening you won't get the knife through the front these tightens up real tight through the back there's a little opening get the knife in there and kind of work along you're trying to bend it a bit so it it's staying as close to the abductor as i can and you'll feel it as soon as i get it yeah i can then kind of open it and then really just scrape along there and there's a little left you can scrape that off and there is the abductor in there that no one will come in so once we get to this situation i come in with this knife and pull off the apron just so we got the inductor muscle which looks like this which you can see in the stores [Music] keeping it simple a little butter and garlic cooking right in the shell around the [Music] barbecue all right a little bit of the secret sauce here it's like a vietnamese fish sauce other ones we'll do it those ones in the [Music] middle come together [Music] better start with a scallop [Music] oh man so good it's like sweet wow the taste always tastes better when you get it yourself too no more filming time to eat [Music] you

got golden Bachelorette Bachelor whatever it's called right golden Bachelor ladies yeah we Next Level I'm saying we next level like what they were doing originally just Bachelor batch the red you know make it more interesting share the spotlight with many more people than just one but uh now on the Family Feud classic game sure of course but uh why talk to a hundred people for these questions when you can just talked to one you only need one you know and listen to them for like in real life yeah like in real life like to see it written down on a board so that's just how we roll people say Zig we zag people say up we go down I say it's Innovative yeah it really is it really is and it's a lot of fun so sea bass is out there on these streets and uh he's got a person asking them the same type of uh Family Feud questions now we did get a a win right where sea bass is going to have to act normal people have been asking about that for an entire day yeah and see this is one of those things I didn't want to rush because like I want to make sure that we pick our spot we're not just kind of like you know right using it and then going oh man you know what we really should have used it for right and you said May 4th is a Saturday yeah he hates May the fourth be with you no but he's gonna have to like acknowledge people and he can't say no thank you when we say God bless you you know you got to do all that yeah he's got to tell us about his weekend he's got yeah yes he's gonna invite us into his life yeah he's got to act like a normal person wow those are all the things you should put on your list it's on the list I don't see a list of course you're not going to see the list it's our list to put together for you yeah and we'll we'll have to unveil It Anyway is there any kind of uh challenge this time around understanding on a win I I can't offer you more the same so if you guys get two out of six matches in this round of the family uh what do you show Family Feud I will from my own expense and all of my own doing two baby ducks and raise them to be adults here yes yes these answers no no I'm vetoing that we're done with animals oh in the studio if you want to have them that's fine you can do it at your place I'm so over having it was so exciting yeah but now when we walk in I'm relieved yes it's so much cleaner maybe sent us a picture of uh the Perkins from uh from last last week right yeah updated picture they're huge yeah I will and you wanted to keep them for two months yeah or so yeah or so yeah they're ginormous they're huge we have a patio can we get a can we get a pizza how about the new Little Caesars four quarter calzone yeah how about that all right okay about five of them yeah five quarters all right time for uh Woody show Family Feud yeah you are matching with Dietrich and to get you a little more info like you I was like where do you find these people yeah very easy Dietrich was walking down the street okay with a uh Margarita and a joint and just having a walk and he's gonna tell us something nice yeah just walking down here four miles back and forth yeah just kind of getting some nice sun in exactly that's what we're doing right now he's dude he's on his work break yeah you know the vibe it's for babies retirement plan yeah [Music] what a show Family Feud and uh so again we have um you know these questions we just got to try to figure out and this is this is the trick this is where we really kind of messed up for the first couple we were really kind of thinking of like what answer we would give on the TV version of this we gotta think we got to put our ourselves in the shoes yeah and we'll start with ravey name something you will find on a breakfast buffet see I didn't give this to Matt it's gonna be too easy there's so many options I know eggs bacon one touch pan pancake mix maker possible sausages right waffles hash browns eggs okay now look I'm gonna you know what I'm gonna try to think about like where I would be if I was smoking a blunt walking the streets yeah oatmeal Margarita uh the breakfast food that I would want sorry Sammy would be bacon and like a mountainous but I do agree with your answer yeah now why uh why would you say that to Sammy why would you say that Sammy hates bacon which is weird right it is legal weirdo but that is what I'm gonna go with I'm gonna go with bacon that's a good answer I think that's good all right let's see if we get a point name something you find in a breakfast buffet eggs you like your eggs scramble okay wet so that's a soft scramble right right soft scramble yes sir see you you know about the white era because you see how you you do that soft scramble because how many black people gonna ask how they want their eggs I'm gonna take these eggs how you get them all right yeah soft scrambled with some cheese up on it oh yeah one bacon was what came to mind first exactly I didn't know that was a white person thing but High Raby wants bacon you overthought it didn't know that either uh Woody show Family Feud Gregory yes name someone on whom people blame their problems oh wow it'd be either general or specific right see my very first instinct would be mothers yeah uh spouse yeah sure boss oh girlfriend oh when you're when you're a parent you can blame a lot of stuff on your kids sure kids are a great excuse for Stuff [Music] your employer government that's good too government women maybe in this case women women in general yeah I'm putting myself in the shoes of uh Dietrich maybe in this case a police officer [Music] interesting I okay me personally I would say parent but I think Dietrich would say girlfriend or his his lady okay that's a good answer all right all right okay I'm just going with it what do you show Family Feud Name someone on whom people blame their problems Donald Trump everybody blame Trump he's not president anymore though that's the problem why y'all still saying he [ __ ] with y'all if he ain't president no more did he cause you any problems didn't cause me none matter of fact if anything he made me feel good because it took some of the pressure off me because now I ain't the bad guy no more ha ha government yeah took the pressure off me I'm not the best I'm not the bad guy oh it's funny actually that's a positive spin yeah that's good all right what do you show Family Feud who's next okay yeah name a form of communication that few people use anymore uh let's always be talking about his pager yeah letters I'm saying uh pigeon if he's right on this okay can I make some kind of side wager appeaser I'm so confident he's wrong okay but we've had this before where like he says something like that and he ends up being absolutely right yeah and this is kind of like the whisper is what I'm saying yeah I'm willing to make some kind of like uh okay and so you already made the pizza thing with him yes okay um five pizzas Menace if you were right about this yeah I will bring in breakfast that includes someone making omelets kind of like my dream yeah all right it's pigeon yeah all right come on dog let us pray all right here we go name a form of communication that few people use anymore do you know anybody's phone number still yeah my auntie because when I was in jail she used to always help me out bayout her yeah just not going to jail yeah yeah I'm here talking to you never again right never again never again also he on Mike gave me his Auntie's phone number which I really cut out of course yeah damn oh man that sucks man I could almost taste The Omelette yeah I was already thinking like what kind of fixings I wanted yeah more like a Greek omelette so like some ground in that ground the the roasted chicken and some feta some spins I like the feta I don't like yeah oh even though it's made it's different like it's Gotta I gotta like you know it's a soft kind of like gooey like yeah not a dog that I love I love feta give me extra feta yeah oh well ah darn it show Family Feud all right well we missed that was a good Menace question there too Sammy all right there's something you do to freshen your breath uh brush your teeth good answer good answer go with that stick with it mouthwash guns I say uh Listerine strips yeah let's go to Mr Bodega breath himself opposite of Menace Listerine strips yeah Bodega breath candy is candy in there I'm gonna stick with brushing your teeth that's a good answer [Applause] that's a good answer let's find out if we uh get a point yet name something you do to freshen your breath brush my tongue okay do you ever have a like morning breath someone rolls over they want to kiss you no cause I don't sleep with people like that oh no very rarely because I ain't gonna have enough roll over in the bed with me all right you said teeth yeah yeah silly me this guy's too coherent yeah dude I know yeah yeah we're thinking overthinking all the answers yeah I brushed my tongue so aggressively that I gag you guys do that sometimes yeah once in a while I feel like I haven't done it good enough unless you until I gag yeah I no longer brush my teeth in the shower but when I do I gag brushing my teeth in the shower but not outside breathing the same way interesting through your nose so Woody's there just going like [Music] I mean I get it all the way in the back of my throat yeah you do all right uh what do you show Family Feud name something a man might do at the gym to impress a woman what does that mean hitting Jim Jim can you explain Jim what is a gymnasium um to impress a woman oh I would say like like uh Make It Rain Fall Out lifting real heavy weight that's what I was that's what I was thinking wear chains you know chains like something something above your building yeah Make It Rain yeah yeah I would say lift up I would say like a big lift heavy heavy weights yeah yeah heavy weight like but they got it yeah Flex let's do that so that song yeah let me stick with Sammy and menace I'm kind of are Sammy and uh really I would like to get your from a female perspective then guys at the gym what are they doing yeah I mean if I saw any of this like a big lift or a shirt off or a fast run I'd be like oh what a dry heart what do you guys feel the best answer is I I mean if assuming it's a really like ripped attractive guy take your shirt off noise shirt off yeah yeah all right but I could see a lifting heavy weights I'm also trying to think of d-trick all right you know what I'm gonna stick with my original answer the uh the gut and also because Raby contributed it the female perspective I'll go with uh lifting very heavy heavy weight very good no I like that yeah all right here we go the shirt thing could be all right let's find out name something a man might do at the gym to impress a woman do more lifts like if I'm doing eight he gonna drive do 20 to impressive you ever picked up a girl at the gym no I'm gay I'm in the guy I ain't got time to be the time all right yeah sure why not yeah all right yeah nice all right the other day at the gym he took his shirt off because you want to look cool more questions and then he had to get a towel to put down on the bench because his shirt was off yeah but you got the shirt's there for a reason yeah somebody on the deck said hip thrust you know I get what you're saying but that's a chick exercise it is oh absolutely I mean I see guys do it I see guys do it occasionally but it's a girl exercise is it really what's for your butt yeah it's butt stuff but don't you want to have like a don't you want to have like a nice firm ass fellas there otherwise lunges it's called lunge score if you're Minnesota even though we're fat and disgusting we have naturally firm asses yeah we do yeah Raven you touched them you can bounce it was actually kind of shocked my ass dude medicine I have like rock solid concrete asses you wouldn't think so but you couldn't even get a finger in there if we decide that we didn't want anything go like nothing like dude not happening you're not breaking the plane the Fort Knox it really is I'll drop the soap all day and still be confident that I'm good that's right truth on that that's right all right let's get uh one more question here what do you show Family Feud okay baby black back to exercise name a sport that can be very peaceful sports that can be very peaceful hmm like the first thing that came to mind to me was golf me too or fishing that's a good one too early sport but it's called a sport right yeah golf I would say even though a lot of the golfers I know are rageaholics think about like when you're watching golf or yeah and how quiet it is yeah although CBS used to pump bird noises right on the on the telecast I'm gonna stick with golf you're gonna stick with the golfer say croquet croquette yeah I think deer Trick's Gonna Know croquette okay uh golf let's see if we get another Point name a sport that could be very peaceful walking because it's a sport people do it you ever do hiking go up in the hills yes I've done that before my white days when I was young I mean like when I was growing up when my people were trying to make us be like white you know oh Family Feud all right we're gonna take a quick break nice Play Everybody only one point but it's still fun all right yeah that's what I like about that game even when you lose it's still fun yep true no omelette station either no no [Music] no no no

Async Django - presented by Ivaylo Donchev
uh yeah first of all thank you for coming uh let me ask you how many of us have used django or jungle daily daily work great that's great okay i'll first quickly introduce myself before we start my name is ivayo donchiff i'm from bulgaria i'm a technical team lead in hack soft in a software company in bulgaria we're basically using jungle a lot i mean a lot and yeah we aim to be up to date with the latest jungle trading and that's why the topic of facing jungle game it's not something new we know it like three years ago with jungle 3.1 but it's nothing that's still growing it's not it's not yet it's not yet established as a standard so when we had the i think jungle if you open the documentation you see that and then when i opened it my first thought was okay it seems like i need to just put an async keyword uh before my dev definition review and that's all and it works it really works but then i said to myself okay i'm going to to execute on orm query and i got that and i was like okay i put this magic async word whatever it means before my view isn't it already async yeah i knew nothing at that point so let's first go through the terms what's the difference between sync and tasting well the standard python code that we use in jungle is synchronous it means that we define a sequence of actions that will be executed once at a time the asynchronous code is another pattern you basically define a set of actions that needs to be executed not necessarily in the same order and they they need to be executed concurrently and potentially in parallel so what the difference you can if two things are going parallel it means they are making they're actually making progress at the same point so we will see that in the examples after that so on our question how many of you have used async python okay great i'm gonna quickly go through this and so we basically have three main tools uh for async python we have other but this is the tree that we are going to focus on we have process we have threads and we have coordinates so multi-processing what that means is basically a python way to start a physically start a new process in the operating system that potentially could be handled by another cpu so that that's basically the the way to scale and use your cpus from your or your python program and it's really powerful for for heavy calculations trading okay so trading in python are not like trading in some other languages like java for example normally you you use thread in java to use another cpu and basically gain more cpu power in python because of the global interpreter work you cannot do that because c python is not thread safe the decision has been made to introduce this global interpreter walk on top of c python that basically prevents a single cpu to or a single process to handle more than one threat so basically cannot scale and scale in cpus but you can unblock your i o operations we see that uh so yeah there is a really good talk of david billy that he said the threats it buying you the ability to stop and walk basically so yeah let's see an example we have a simple function that only sleeps for two seconds we use time sleep a lot in this presentation you can think of it as an equivalent equivalent to an oram query or or calling a third party they're all i o operations so if i want to execute this code five times this function normally i'll make for loop and just run it five times if i want to make it concurrently and in parallel i'll then import this threading module pass the function then start all the threads which will basically tell the operating system that it should make start making progress on them and then wait for them to finish and we can see in the example that they're actually sleeping at the same time without each one blocking the others so yeah we have process and threats but since python 3 we have a really good interface to another pattern of facing programming and this is the async io module and basically the asynchroid keyword that came with python 3. the key thing here is that you're getting exactly the same benefits that you would get with threads but core genes are faster than threads because the implementation of the and they run inside the threat and if you if you run according to a tritium we call that async threat and the other key thing is threats are cooperative we see that in the next example why so how do you use that first you need to start your main function in async i o loop then each function each coordinate is a standard python function but it needs to be defined with this async word before that and basically if you want to colonizing function you need to await it so yeah here's a more complex example you have the main function that's awaiting according function twice which is calling a synchronous function which is we don't have a problem of that you can actually call synchronous code in asynchronous context but this is this is actually really dangerous in i told you that uh the curtains are cooperative and we see that in this example we have two chords good quartering which uses the asynchro sleep that's the time sleep equivalent in async context that doesn't actually block the entire thread and you have a bad quality in that use a standard time sleep that actually blocks the threat and then we see we call the esteem kio getter which is the python way to say i wait for all this quartering concurrently so what happens is that both functions sleep for five seconds we have a thousand coordinates starting then they they wait for the one quarter that block the threat to finish and then continue basically mean if you have one bad curtain it could ruin the day for everyone basically so yeah that's that's really dangerous and the rule number one is don't block the main threat that's the the most important thing and then we have the futures library futures library is the high-level interface that that uses both processes threads and curtains so if you have if we have these three two links let's say what what if we can actually call we can actually make the async python and the synchronous python to talk each other and make a blocking operation from the synchronous python for example from some legacy code that doesn't actually block the main thread and we can do that let's say we we want to interface that just a decorator some magic decorator that puts this into event warp and doesn't bought it right let's say that decorator looks like this it's a pretty complex but what it does is basically runs the thread pull executor which is a class instantiated from the futures and starts a new threat throws the function there make a so-called future or awaitable objects that behaves like a core team then you can actually use it as a core team but actually you're you're moving your code to another thread and waiting to finish your main thread so yeah just keep in mind this example we'll get back to it later oh i think jungle uh we're going to see this picture a lot i think it's really really nice this it shows on a high level what's happening into the request response cycle in jungle uh that's how it normally looks like we have an ngnx that usually behaves like a load balancer then the request goes to the usb then it moves through a chain of middlewares it hits our view of the business logic and meanwhile communicates with the oram so the first bottleneck of introducing asynchronous behavior in django is the views and that's the tools that we have process triads and core genes well we don't really talk much about the processes because the websites and web apps are by definition more io heavily not more cpu heavily normally when you make an http request your website communicates with the database or calling the third party rather than making some calculations so yeah let's see what if we use threads in our reviews this example it looks strange it actually works you can actually start new threads and uh make an orange query or send email then start for them to finish and then start them then wait for them to finish but that's what hard to manage then how do you handle exceptions i mean that's the entire new threat what happens with the transactional atomic by the way transaction atomic uh the key the key point here is that the database connection in django is thread bound so if you start a new thread you forget about the transaction atomic in the same context and that's not good for data fetching obviously so it's clear that jungle went with i think io for this behavior we have this small example with this view and that that would work but we don't have the event opening that was the first problem when introducing these views and that leads us to the second bottleneck the whiskey what is whiskey whiskey is maybe one of the best thing that happens to python it's actually the standard that make python suitable for web programming it's used for for from django from fast api flask anyway framework basically it defines a single interface for that but it's never made to be async that's not that was not the idea of it so we need a new new new standard we need the aggie asynchronous server gateway interface and this is a code from documentation edgy the spiritual successor to wiki it's basically adding an event loop implementation and provide an interface for core things so we saw that we have an interface for coroutines uh in the digital interface and on the other side we have uh a way to define asynchronous view but we have middlewares between them how do we handle them well here's how a standard middleware looks like it's a basically a higher order function that accepts a get response function that will handle the the business logic and the new thing here is that this function could be a standard python function or could be a core thing so we basically need an e-file statement that checks if this is a core thing but the next problem is how does the asgi knows if your middleware is already handling both curtains and standard functions because it will it would be good if you have some not suitable middleware to get a warning about that well we have decorators that comes out of the box from django and what they do is just attaching two new properties uh to your middleware so if you imagine the algae server like a four wall handling request it checks the the view check the middleware if there are anything capable and then pass the request and that's that's actually the official example from the jungle documentation that's how it looks like to write an async middleware but this decorator is more or less depending on the good will of the developers so let's say you're installing a third party which is making a blocking operation inside the middleware like rmquery and they didn't put the decorator so what happens then uh i'm telling you from my experience a few hours of debugging uh it's you're sending a request you're sending a bunch of requests and you know that you have async apis but they all behave as synchronous apis because because the middleware is like a funeral it blocks the main thread it doesn't allow the junk to be async so yeah just just to have in mind some bad experience and yeah this is my favorite part the aura so imagine that you're a jungle core developer and you have a project that's like 15 years old and the most complex module inside is never made to be async where where do you start from you can't start from scratch obviously uh so we we can we don't have an easy way to do that because the database at first of all database adapter is synchronous so we need to prevent that we need to do this this error is basically saying you i don't know what you're doing but please stop that that's wrong i mean you're walking threat and they do that yeah first rule number one don't block the main thread and they do that this is uh uh codeball from the podgrass uh database backend it points to the mysql and the other but they have this ac unsafe decorator it's basically telling you if you're trying this key point where the sql query is triggered if you're trying to do that and you're into an event loop just raise an error and that's the example that we saw before starting with the jungle so we actually had to have a way to make a blocking operation uh that is blocking cooperation inside an event warp we have a core team that doesn't actually walk the main threat and that's what they did but they call it syncq async and async to sync that's basically the the core implementation i mean these guys that released the algorithm apart from the jungle it's another package but part of the jungle or organization these guys are demo smart there's tons of checks tons of validation inside but the core logic says if you want to use drm put it into a threat wait for it and yeah and yeah i think you think is basically doing the the just the opposite thing with similar implementation so this is a more complex example how it works you can basically put this decorator to sync twice into a normal python function and you can await it you can call according from it you can decorate the coroutine like async to say async to sync which will make it a normal standard sorry standard python function and that worked fine so what happens with the transaction atomic we said that the database connection is threadbound but you if you if every time that that you make some rm query you go to another thread you still lose your ability to make atomic transactions well the truth is that you can make them but you must encapsulate the codes that make sense to be transaction atomic into a synchronous box and then call them uh with uh sync to async you cannot depend on the standard way of making uh atomic atomic requests to an entire http request you just have to to pay more attention which blocks actually make sense to be put into transaction so yeah it's increasing complexity a little bit and you can use this utility functions think to async to basically all the orm methods but but you need to put it into the method that actually triggers the query so if you see the last example with the user.object.o because the user.object.org doesn't make a query it makes a query when you start actually iterating over it uh you need to tr to apply the function to the [Music] thing that actually triggers the iterator inside it and what's new that that's actually uh there was a pull request that were that was open in the jungle repository for like a few months or something and it was merged two or three weeks ago it's completely new it will be released in jungle 4.1 uh which puts an asynchronous version of almost each of the methods of the query set and they add this a before the method so you can weigh them with the functions that that are iterated you don't need that because you can define them both as standard iterators and asynchronous it uh generated actually basically so yeah that's really nice uh if you wonder how it works under the hood they wrap the functions that trigger the query with sync to async it's the same thing but the good thing is that if they change the implementation you're using the jungle official jungle api of the oram so they are free to change the internal implementation now and you don't have to use this utility function so yeah what what did we achieve with all of this if we if we did our attach to not block the main thread let's see this this simple view this is uh just sleeping for no point one seconds it's not not doing something because or what i did is sent a 100 request simultaneously to the api and see how it behaves and this is this is uh the performance when you deploy your code with whiskey so it what basically done if you have if you sent us 100 requests it handled the first handle the second third fourth so yeah you wait around for 10 seconds if you use add key what happens is if you if you sent 100 requests it's actually swore for everyone it's actually sore because you block the threat each of them blocks the threat and all of them wait because aggie by by definition is handling uh that's what what they say in the documentation is async outside but it's synchronous inside but they handle all the requests and then depends on the fact you you you're not blocking the threat um let's say we we move our we uh we rework our view as an async api what happens is it it's like 10 times faster or something all of the the only limitation is the threats that you could spawn you handle the request to handle the uh if you use the standard time sleep for example if you replay that with an rm query and yeah having that in mind you you you can also but this is this is uh another topic you have a way to fine-tune how many threads you could spawn from the very beginning in the jungle that can handle the that can handle the oram interactions and basically have a way to potentially concurrently make multiple transaction atomic blocks so what we had we have four phases to make our jungle framework async the first one the or was the ascii support which makes it possible to have a quartering interface of the chain then we have the middlewares and this is this is uh maybe the slowest part because we depend on the ecosystem around jungle or the third part is to migrate and make sure they they're suitable for async which many of them already did then we have the views that just need to be according and we have the orm that the current state is you can make it asynchronous from the from the perspective of the main thread but you cannot simultaneously send hundreds of queries and yeah the point of uh this talks and i hope i made it uh clearly was that we have we have a really good and stable framework we knew that the future is async and we need to get at that point uh we need to get there at some point we knew that back three years ago when jungle 3.1 uh came and we have a plan to do that we just need times to to get there here's a list of useful uh links that explains the we're going by we're going to share the presentation in linkedin and twitter so if you're if it's interesting to you you can check it later and yeah i'll be happy if you have some questions and thank you very much for the attention [Applause] [Music] [Applause] if anyone has any questions just come on up we have plenty hello thank you for your presentation uh i have a question for or um do you have some limitation for database in giants like will it work for my sql postgres for all of them okay uh so i mean you if you have some limitations uh in the simultaneous connection yes yes well there is every database has a limitation of how many connections uh could be be mated to it uh you have a way to fine-tune that from the jungle and it's the so-called ad gi underscore threads uh setting environment setting so that basically tells the sync to async class to how many threads you should execute executed when you start the jungle how many trades it will be executed from the very beginning and wait for them to handle oh yeah yeah thank you thank you hi thanks for the presentation uh i was wondering if you know like in terms of the solution that was designed uh to to have a sync orm how does this compare to like uh sql alchemy it has also an async like back end now apparently i'm not sure how it handles i feel uh skill alchemy like a few years ago not sure what's the state there okay thank you hello um about the middleweights and their compatibility with assing there is fun fact the middleware mixing that was supposed to bring very old middlewares into django 2.0 i think also adds the async function just by wrapping it in async to sync so you can apply it to newer middlewares to make them i think that's not really a question just i can't yeah okay i haven't tried that but yeah sounds like a good idea hi thank you for your talk um as a developer that has a non-sync django application and wants to move to an async one do i have to go to every step of the way like um i assume rms and views yes and yeah and switch from the wsg to the a like how does the middle are like how this migration look like well it depends on yeah basically the state of the project if you can move to your first step is obviously moving from whiskey to algae then you may you need to make sure that uh your first up-to-date jungle so your internal middlewares are handling curtains uh then if you use some third-party middlewares that they are actually doing that uh and the next step is basically defining uh i don't know if there's an easy way for existing views apis probably better ways will be to introduce a new one new ones that could reuse the same logic from the legacy code by wrapping them within two i think uh hi thanks for the talk um are there some benchmarks available comparing jungle run the traditional old way on the async way uh no what i use for the example was a cli tool called hey that you can tell how many requests you send simultaneously and and what portions and what i did is just send a single portion of 100 requests to the view do we have any other questions hearing no questions okay then thank you all for coming [Music] [Applause] [Music]

Embodied Ethics: Session 7 - Altruism: Capitalism's Disease
right so let's go ahead and get started um so welcome welcome online welcome to the room um so this is our embodied ethics class um we are talking tonight about altruism um so we're here at the San Francisco Dharma Collective which I'm really loving with this series of classes that every topic that we've been covered every ethical topic that we've been covering the Dharma Center is an embodiment of it so I'm really loving that that kind of connection that really makes sense um so tonight with altruism you know that like the Dharma the the driving and tension behind the Dharma Collective is to exist for the good of the community for the well-being and benefit of others um so just like I've been saying with our other classes uh we are sitting inside an embodiment of altruism just by being here in physical space online so um thank you to the volunteers board members everyone that brings the Dharma Collective to life for the well-being of others for those of you that I haven't met my name is TIG uh I am a meditation teacher a contemplative artist I trained in medical and research institutions and that's also where I teach so at the Mayo Clinic Brown University and Pratt Institute end here at the Dharma Collective um and you know with this theme of altruism I was reflecting on what is it that brought me to teaching and I was reflecting on that there was a very specific moment where I had been practicing for many years and and I almost started seeing the practice and the teachings as medicine and uh I kind of something clicked in me of like oh it would actually be selfish if I just kept this to myself and so the driving kind of motivation that I had in starting my teacher Journey was um altruism to you know spread these this medicine for the well-being of others so um I can't really see it but the shirt at one time said heavily meditated which I kind of love because it's like got that parallel with heavily medicated but it's definitely meditated um so this shirt is kind of like a ground for altruism for me so here we are kind of exploring what embodied ethics means so if you're just joining for the first time we have a bunch of recordings on YouTube that kind of sets up in more detail um kind of the journey that we've been on and um the background of embodied ethics but the cliff notes version um kind of Ethics as a a system or actions and behaviors that contribute to the well-being of others um we've been using this word constructive a lot constructive action constructive thoughts constructive intentions where a lot of unethical Concepts might be considered destructive personally for me that's really what makes a difference it is really hard you know to kind of like nail down exactly what our ethics it can be very subjective and so for me I kind of like it's a very simplistic version if it's constructive for self other environment Planet community then it's ethical if it's destructive it causes harm to self to other to community to Planet then it's unethical that's my simplified version of it um but this idea that it's embodied you know it's not just we're thinking about ethics but we're also practicing them and that we're experimenting and trying things out on what it feels like in the body what it feels like when we hear each other speaking when it what it feels like when we hear these teachings or points of view around ethics um what is it like when we go out into the world after being in this class how do we show up how do we embody what it is that we're learning and exploring here um so that we don't just leave it in the room or leave it in our neurons that we actually go out into the world and practice um so there has been a theme very clearly emerging we're on week seven now of this series and there has been a theme that we've really been exploring a lot around our form of economy and how ethics relates to this kind of the World As We participate in this economy uh and how do we protect our minds and our hearts as we move through an economic system that is pretty unethical uh so we're going to continue that tonight um for those of you that saw kind of the promotion the flyer for this it's altruism capitalism's disease so we're going to be talking about how altruism but also how it is considered to be a disease to the functioning of capitalism um so I'll present a couple different points of view on that and we'll have some time to talk about it and then we'll also have two periods of practice tonight so one which is going to happen shortly is just a opening uh reflection and arriving and then we'll have our teaching and discussion and then we'll actually end tonight with the practice um to cultivate that ethic of altruism so with that let's um let's start settling in for just uh maybe about a 10 minute practice so finding a way that's comparable to hold the body and before we come into Stillness I want to invite a little bit of movement if it feels good maybe just giving yourself a little massage in the hands treating yourself to this little gift of touch and release and this is an act of both giving and also receiving and so maybe you want to extend that up one of the lengths of the arms if that feels good massaging up to the shoulder and then maybe patting down back the arm and then switching skipping your arm a little massage a little love and then coming back down just getting the energy moving and then let's try out a little acupressure so coming into the third eye just lightly tapping right here on the center of the forehead it helps bring our awareness into focus and a concentrated state and stay here with his tapping or maybe you want to try out some very gentle squeezing of the eyebrows moving down the length of the eyebrow and this whole area is known to stimulate the meridians of concentration so perhaps setting an intention to be present to be focused to be here for our session together and then let's come down to the Heart Center maybe tapping with one or both hands right in the middle of the chest if that feels comfortable kind of waking up the seat of emotions the Heart Center here and then maybe placing one or both hands on the chest and some very gentle circles here just coming into awareness of the heart maybe setting an intention to bring an open heart to this session tonight because we're talking about altruism a very heart-centered concept I've been taking a deep breath in and on the exhale relaxing into Stillness perhaps you like to take a few more deep breaths just to arrive and settle in let go of what happened before not concerned about what comes after just being here in this moment been noticing what's alive for you right now perhaps Sensations in the body maybe it's an energy in the mind lingering conversations or activities of a day what mood are you in right now and what emotions are here and whatever it is that you're noticing welcoming and the fullest expression of the present moment right now no need to fix or change no expectation of how you should or shouldn't be feeling in this moment just giving yourself permission the gift to allow yourself to be exactly as you are so we're going to make a transition to a short reflection for our opening practice it's a gathering up all the attention coming to the domain of the mind and the Heart and last week we explored gratitude and gifting economy what is it like to receive so let's begin there I'm calling to mind something that you received from someone else something like a gift or an act of kindness that you received can be a big thing a small thing maybe it's material object that someone gifted you or perhaps it was the present of time support love and as you call to mind this gift that you received notice how does it feel what comes up in the body and as we start to shift our attention from receiving to giving the next Reflection Point is call into mind something that you did for someone else maybe an act of kindness maybe a gift maybe checking in on a friend maybe imagining and you're doing this act of kindness or giving this gift and again what comes up in the body how does that feel no expectations here what you should be feeling just noticing being curious what arises these reflection prompts and you know considering something that you may have done to benefit your community and again it can be big or small to be material object just be walking around your neighborhood and smiling how does that feel have you noticed the Mind wandering getting lost in thoughts or analysis or distracted by sounds or Sensations in the body we just use our mindfulness practice to notice that's what's happening and come back without any judgment shifting now to our next Reflection Point of considering something that you did to benefit the Earth maybe walking or riding your bike maybe recycling turning the lights off when you left the house how does that feel no matter how small or my new that action may have been how would it feel to know that it's contributing to the well-being of this planet and our final Reflection Point this one's a little bit more complicated but calling to mind something that you did to take care of yourself that also benefited another may even want to consider coming to a class like this coming for the benefit of teachings and practice but also to move out into the world and spread ethics and goodness benefiting all those that you'll come into contact with after this class so how does that feel to consider something that benefits yourself and other people around you notice if this is a similar or a different flavor from the other reflection points before we transition out of this practice let's take a moment just to feel the body be supported by the chair and the floor or cushion taking a moment just to be with the sensations of contact a way of centering and grounding ourselves as we enter into our time together and knowing that this is a a home base for you if at any point during the class emotions arise or Things become overwhelming you can always return to this feeling of the body resting in the chair knowing that the support is always there for you just need to turn and look an invitation here to follow the next breath all the way in through the nostrils down into the chest and then as you exhale slow and extended exhale letting go of that breath letting go of that opening practice and as you transition back to Open Eyes if they were closed bring with it any awareness or presence that was cultivated in that practice maybe what could mean some movement back into the hands or the feet stretches welcome to those that are just joining online nice to have you with us so thanks for joining me in a short practice and just curious what that might have been like for you as you reflect on um what it was like to um offer gifts to people around us or Community the planet especially that last one what was it like to think about something that benefits Us and other people so if you're on Zoom feel free to raise your hand or you can simply unmute yourself and talk if you're in the room just ask that you would use this microphone to our friends on June can hear you so what was that like what did you notice in that practice laughs I can go um this is Tia and I um I was really bouncing between like the kind of uh uh the joy of giving the sympathetic Joy of being with people that I care about and giving and receiving that uh is memories of like actual direct experience and then really uh touching into the the struggle of receiving um and um the the I don't know there's a difficulty in the uh like who's giving first that sometimes comes up um and and uh oh a way of like once it gets big like to the planet like really kind of like since nothing's enough I can't I'm not like the the joy of giving it feels deluded in the extra space so that's okay thanks for sharing that Tia and did I hear correctly that you felt like it wasn't enough only when we got like you know what have you done for the planet it's like oh yeah yeah people in community I feel in better balance um yeah yeah thanks for sharing that it's not a lot of people nodding their heads that seems resonant any other thoughts anything else come up for you how about with that that last one and something that benefits yourself and other people was that tricky was that accessible for you how did that feel so this is Cecily um I've come off of a week last week of a lot of giving um in an emergency and I found that when you were describing the things I was like not today I'm done I'm all done it's time to pour back into me and it was lovely to to know that I can say that because my person is safe I guess we fixed it everything's done like I'm literally no longer in a crisis um so I got to be for the moment we were contemplating delightfully selfish and unless I told you out loud you wouldn't know and thank you for your happy dance yeah yeah we're gonna talk uh we're gonna talk about selfishness tonight so thank you for kind of uh naming that it's not always a bad thing uh and yeah you know like we're we're shifting last week we talked a lot about receiving uh and this week we're going to be shifting more towards giving and so you know I'm hearing what Cecily was saying is it can be exhausting right it could Tire us out right yeah so we have to take care of ourselves so we can maybe keep doing more I don't know yeah thanks for sharing that Louisa are you gonna share I'm glad your friend is safe Cecily I'm sure they're super happy you were able to help uh in the time of crisis um yeah I'm actually in this in a interesting situation a good friend just went into surgery today and he's having a real hard time receiving help and all of the friends are kind of trying to get him to accept help and he's been just I think really overwhelmed with everything and so it's it's been an interesting place where we're available for him if he needs us and he probably will need us at some point he needs to be off his foot for six weeks um but yeah it's been like we want to give but he has a hard time receiving but I wanted to bring in when I thought about something that I can do that benefits others too I was just cooking earlier today and I was trying to find someone to come eat with me and no one was available and it's so interesting how like for me if I cook and I share a meal of someone even if I just give my neighbor some of it and you know it's it's a whole other scenario I don't know it's so much more inspiring for me to cook that I'll be I'll be sharing that either like eating with them or sharing uh without having to sit with them necessarily but that's what came up so sorry to say yeah I really love the words but I love it you said inspiring like it inspires you yeah so like not just our own well-being but the inspiration to all her others yeah and I also wanted to just name like the part of altruism around giving oftentimes is exactly what you just named availability it doesn't mean that someone will actually take it but like how meaningful is it to know that people are available if we need them or when we are ready to receive uh that there are people out there giving so even just the availability um that we can offer other people is a form of altruism so thank you for naming that any other thoughts anyone in the room so thank you for all of the um the shares of those that were spoken also those that weren't um and I think you know this what we did here really points to that there is a felt experience to this it's not just a cognitive thing and it really shows how whether it's being exhausted from giving or being inspired by it you know whatever it may be there's a felt experience how does it feel to give how to offer support to other people to our communities to the environment um and so I really like these Reflections when we're talking about altruism because it's not so much about like keeping track keeping score of like did I do enough it's not really about that it's more of how does it feel you know how does it feel for us to give um while there are things like meeting rests and knowing our boundaries which we're going to talk about today um it's really taking time to check in with ourselves like how did that feel to hold the door for someone or to say thank you or to cook a meal for someone it really helps kind of with that motivation to keep doing more when we stay with the feeling of altruistic actions and behaviors so the one one of the components of tonight obviously is altruism and so this kind of really simple definition of altruism being a thought an aspiration a wish uh an action a behavior that would benefit others uh this there's a lot of definitions of altruism also include the word selflessness which we're going to talk about because sometimes there's like an extreme there of like giving more than we might have or giving in a way that depletes us and we need to take care of ourselves so I'm a little iffy on the selflessness part but we'll talk about that it's for now it's just about the well-being of others so I'm going to I want to read this passage some of you may be familiar with Matthew Ricard who is a Tibetan monk and I just really like the way that he kind of frames altruism so he says we have all tavarian degrees had the experience of profound altruistic love even right there he's associating altruism with love amazing of a feeling of all-encompassing benevolence of intense compassion for those who are suffering some people are naturally more altruistic than others at times to the point of heroism others are more focused on themselves and find it hard to consider the welfare of others as an essential goal and even harder to put the welfare of others before our own in any case it is essential to cultivate altruism being altruistic not only helps us to benefit others but is also the most satisfying way to live so there we're kind of seeding it's not just about benefiting others it also feels really good this is the opposite of a heightened feeling of self-centeredness which Cuts us off from altruistic love and compassion and only brings pain to ourselves and others in general when altruistic thoughts arise in our minds they're fairly quickly replaced by other less wholesome thoughts such as anger or jealousy no judgments that is why if we want altruism to play a major role in our being we must spend time cultivating it because just wishing is not enough we must realize that in the deepest part of ourselves we do not want to suffer we want to be happy once we recognize this aspiration the next thing we must do is realize that all beings share it this really touches in on a lot of the things that we've been exploring in this series of classes particularly that last one this is compassion right that all beings share that same desire to be happy and free and one of the pillars of secular ethics is this interdependence and shared Humanity that we could all relate to that we all come from different walks of life we all have different experiences different Joys different Sorrows but the Common Thread is that we all share um this this aspiration to not suffer and be happy this all-encompassing benevolence intense compassion for those who are suffering I kind of love this idea of altruism a lot of times we talk about love and kindness and compassion it's two separate things and they are kindness is the wish for happiness compassion is the wish for freedom from suffering and I love that altruism brings together both it's kind of like a One-Stop shop for the hard opening practices um even harder to put the welfare of others before our own so again this kind of selflessness you know I'm not promoting in in this class that we do that I don't think as as gnome and I were talking about earlier today like we can't fall on our own swords we're not we're go no benefit to anyone else if we are depleting ourselves or we're not maintaining our boundaries um so I think he is right it is harder to put the welfare of others um before before our own uh but it doesn't mean that we're not altruistic if we take care of our wants and needs we're going to talk about this next week kind of the difference between a want and a need so if we're giving to a point where it depletes our needs that might become problematic and then we can't give any more than that um but if it's we can give and we sacrifice some of our wants then maybe there's a little bit more room there for altruism uh that doesn't deplete us and then this point about the opposite of self-centeredness altruism is the opposite of self-centeredness it's the awareness it's the awareness of the well-being of other people community the planet all those things that are around us and when we're self-centered none of that really matters it's almost like the spotlight is turned in but we've been given this beautiful gift that shines outwards and so a lot of the theme tonight is going to be this kind of back and forth of how do we take care of ourselves and other people um we must spend time cultivating it that's why we're here we're practicing right I do believe and it will come up in uh in another reading um that it is innately in us that we are innately altruistic it's just that there's things that are layering on top of us I come from a school of thought in the world to you that we are inherently good that these nature that these um these aspects that we're talking about loving kindness compassion altruism ethics are available to us it's not something that we have to go out and get but we do have to cultivate it we do have to uncover what might be blocking us from that you know the onion peel back all of those layers of of hurt and conditioning and you know foreshadowing capitalism that makes it harder um to cultivate it but it's there and that we all share it so before we move on I wanted to name um also that this isn't really about um aspiring to be perfect or to feel bad if we don't feel like we're we're not giving you know we have to take care of ourselves like we heard Cecily like it's exhausting and so to not feel bad if taking care of ourselves means that we're not as giving as we might want to be there's no judgment in this class around that it's really more of an opportunity for you to check in on where you're at I'm not telling you that you need to be a certain way or not um also as as we were talking earlier today a lot of these teachings are kind of given in the framework of the ultimate nature like if everything was perfect and we lived in this enlightened state of being um that yeah we could we could walk around just giving and loving and compassionate um but we live in a very real relative world and so we might aspire to some of these values but also being really realistic like we do need to take care of ourselves we do live in an economy where there is scarcity and lack mindset so we do need to make sure that our basic needs are met before we can really give to others um and I wanted to name that because in my journey even though the this class is slanted more on the secular Viewpoint in my journey through studying and practicing Buddhism and other spiritual practices there's been this kind of self sacrifice or that like oh I'm just attached to my body and my belongings and so I can't I can't um I can't give um so I want to be realistic here you know that we're not saying throw yourselves to the Wolves for the benefit of the Wolves right um and we do need to take care of ourselves I just wanted to set that framework because sometimes these teachings can come across as very high level you know there there's actually a teaching in Buddhism where it's like you feed yourself to the Lioness so she can feed her Cubs or Cubs and then it's a beautiful aspiration but also how are we going to continue benefiting other people if that happens you know so anyway um as we've been talking a little bit about like we do need to have boundaries um so I want to kind of evolve this idea of of talking about altruism to how that might show up in our form of economy um so those of you that uh are familiar with this term that altruism is considered to be a disease to capitalism so we're going to go a little bit deeper into that this book I mentioned it during the series of this class it's called the Buddha on Wall Street uh it's been super influential on me and and my world view on the economy and these spiritual practices I highly recommend it it's a very down to earth easy to understand uh like a lot of economics it's super confusing and like even it feels like really over over my head but this book really feels relevant and applicable to understanding so I want to read a couple points here um so this is um really a point of view around capitalism in general capitalism has led us to a situation in the world today in which it's possible to conceive of a fulfilling life for all but further progress is being suffocated by a neoliberal form of capitalism that threatens the environment and perpetuates suffering in the world primitive instincts for individual survival such as greed and hatred served us well in earlier evolutionary times but as Darwin argues the human species has succeeded because of characteristics such as sharing and compassion especially now in our interconnected world where our actions Ricochet rapidly from place to place and can threaten our very survival the progressive evolutionary impulses of sharing and compassion need to flourish instead of neoliberal capitalism with its emphasis on Greed and selfishness we need a different form of economic organization one that combines thoughtful self-interest and the Creative Energy and Dynamics dynamism of capitalism with the values of generosity and altruism one that combines thoughtful self-interest and the Creative Energy of capitalism with the values of generosity and altruism so you know I think as we've been exploring in this class this isn't necessarily about down with capitalism let's get rid of it and replace it with gifting economies or an altruistic economy it's more about how do we cultivate these values of generosity which is what we talked about last week in altruism which is what we're talking about this week so we're living in a system that thrives on being self-centered capitalism needs us to be focused only on ourselves in order for it to work and so what I am kind of proposing is some consideration around how do we participate in the system because we have to it's What here it's what's here it's the water that we swim in but protect our heart how do we still uncover these innate qualities of kindness compassion altruism giving generosity even though we're surrounded bombarded by marketing messages by selling tactics that tell us that there's not enough or that we're not enough or that there's not enough for us to give uh many of you are any of you familiar with Anne Rand that familiar name yeah so the um she's referred to a lot in this book for those of you that are not familiar she uh lived is a Russian immigrant that lived in the U.S she passed away in the 80s um and um had some very strong philosophical views on this so she saw altruism as a disease that was incompatible with freedom with capitalism and with individual rights for her altruism was a kind of primitive social Instinct left over from our earlier Evolution as humans interesting how that's kind of opposite of what we just heard she held the view that we may still be in evolution as a species and we may be living side by side with some missing links these missing links can be found she thought and those people who fail to utilize their rational selfishness it's kind of hard to even read this to its full potential she deeply believed uh so there's some some gendered pronouns in here that I'm gonna do her the favor of switching because this is a quote she deeply believed that each human must live as an end to themselves and follow their own rational self-interest uh in one of the books that she wrote that's called Atlas shrub the hero exclaims I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man nor ask another man for to live for mine her conclusion that was if any civilization is to survive it is the morality of altruism that men have to reject and this is the person that has influenced the economy that we participate in right all the way up into Paul Ryan Who quotes her in a lot of his speeches on the house in the past so I can tell from the reactions at least in the room that there is an aversion to some of these things that we're hearing it's hard for me to say a lot of it but yet we live in it this is the starting point of our economy you know of our political views on our economy and and it's not just Republican so the uh the idea that there's another section I want to read from before we move into a discussion that altruism that these these heart qualities are actually a limited resource that we don't have enough and we need to be really careful where we spend these heart qualities I also don't agree in before we move into that I do I love this kind of counter argument from our man the Buddha the Buddha told us the Cycles go forth and go forth for the good of the many for the happiness of the many out of compassion for the world for the welfare for the good and the happiness of others even just reading that it feels very different you know it's a completely different energy of this kind of altruistic orientation to life versus one that that proposes that are thriving as a species comes from our selfishness so one more point of view and then we can open it up for some discussions on this going back to that idea that um that altruism or that these qualities of the heart are limited resources which both political parties consider to be true so in reference to an ran their way of thinking about altruism generosity and love as resources of limited Supply like a fossil fuel that is diminished with every use is bizarre altruism generosity solidarity and Civic Spirit are not Commodities that are depleted with use they're more like muscles that develop and grow stronger with exercise one of the defects of a market-driven society is that it lets these virtues languish to renew our public life we need to exercise them more strenuously so what happens when we start exercising these more strangely when we start acting and behaving out there in the world in a form of economy that is going in polar opposition from some of these these values and ethics that we're exploring here I have a couple things to consider um around how altruism is counterproductive to the um the system of capitalism is what I call Distortion of incentive so that if we were to operate in an altruistic way for the good of all not just for self that it would weaken the drive for individual achievement and Excellence so right now we're really motivated for success by our own needs our own basic needs but also our own income it is very self-centered so if we start acting in a way that is truly altruistic really considering these actions what I'm buying how is this impacting other people where is this being made is me shopping in this place spending my money with this organization or on this product is it coming from ethical sources is it ethically made is it causing damage to the environment um and so this idea of a distorted incentive uh can come to play like it could actually be very damaging to capitalism uh misallocation of resources so um altruistic impulses result in the misallocation of resources within a capitalist economy so when resources are directed towards supporting those in need or pursuing social goals rather than being allocated to Market demands and individual preferences it will lead to inefficiencies our economy will collapse if we like that's really powerful to consider if we shift it from thinking about Market demands and individual preferences to social goals and supporting those in need capitalism will begin to fail and then finally this last point in finished infringement on freedom so there's a Viewpoint that when altruistic values are imposed on individuals largely through government intervention or social pressure it infringes on their individual freedom so we live in a country for those of you that are in America where Liberty were founded on Liberty with no safety net right so it's it's our own personal Liberties at the expense of whatever whatever damage it causes there's no safety net that's built in so if we really consider altruism as a way of being in the world as an ethical value that we embody we might actually have to give up what we would consider to be some of our liberties or freedoms or the benefit of others so there's a lot of really charged things in here I'm presenting multiple people's points of view to kind of stir the pot my point of view as I already said is we need to protect our heart right we still need to cultivate altruism even though that we're operating in a world that is set up uh anti that it's the exact opposite so I'm not here to try and suggest that we we bring down capitalism I'm here to point to how important it is for us to practice cultivating an altruistic heart which our practice is going to be tonight but I want to open it up what's coming up as you hear this what is this how does this land for you what is what's resonating what's making you angry what's confusing let's open it up Community dialogue respecting other points of view no advice just deep listening as people speak from their heart so again if you're online feel free to unmute or raise your hand and in the room if you could use the microphone so altruism is the disease to capitalism and take some time to let that all absorb well I'm no philosopher but I would think that the highest form of rational selfishness is altruism because when we're altruistic we create a web of interdependence and kindness and reciprocity it literally serves us in a selfish way even though that may not be our intent there's a there's a there's a selfishness even at the highest level of the bodhisattva so I don't know what Anne rand's talking about that's that's crazy talk I mean there's only so many basic needs you can have met before you're a hoarder so we're here on this planet because that's our highest good those are the people we remember we remember the Buddha and the Jesus Christ and we don't remember Anne Rands so I'm gonna ask a question yeah we don't remember Piet our economy is influenced by her true and by people that think this way yeah I mean these people have been all have always been around I mean the Pharaohs the Kings of England I mean I it's it's almost this sort of spectrum of Enlightenment rather than the individual system itself I don't yeah yeah yeah so the individual May fade away but the values that are being instilled in the way that it's having a direct impact on our life you know and that we're continuing to propagate this when we go to the grocery store yeah go ahead it's such a challenge right like how you can't you keep what are you gonna I mean except for going and living in a cave somewhere um I don't I I I it's you know no matter I feel like no matter what I do I'm contributing to it somehow I mean I feel like I have to think about it from like what's the least amount of damage I can do because I'm going to be doing damage no matter what and I really don't like that I'd rather not be part of this system at all but um it's so toxic can I ask how does it feel for you to share that to say that um I just feel my body very tense and you know um have been a bit of a feeling of hopelessness a little bit you know just feels overwhelming um yeah thanks for being real with that it is a lot of these ethics conversations that we're having around ethics can feel really overwhelming and I think it also goes back to what Tia was sharing is like the bigger it gets the harder it might be you know or like it feels like it's not enough like we feel like these little things that we might be doing here and there to affect change might not be enough but trust me those Ripple effects even coming to a class like this you know like having conversation naming the discomfort in the body I'm angry I don't want I don't like that I have to I feel like I'm being forced into this and I don't like that you know it's a sense of Injustice comes out for me so I think that this is the starting point and one of the themes in this series of classes has been we have to name it right so thank you for being brave and and saying you're sharing with us how it feels and I think that a lot of us really relate to what you're saying it just feels really big and overwhelming thanks I just want to say and definitely anger I you know I'd rather I'd like to try to somehow transform that energy of anger into something useful as opposed to just grinding my teeth you know well yes absolutely and I think you know for those of you that are familiar with cultivating emotional balance program um that we we really consider an emotion like anger to have a very potential constructive outcome right that it could actually be that motivation for taking action um so one of the things that I think requires a lot of Bravery in addition to naming the feeling is also staying with it right staying with the discomfort because it's I I've noticed in my experience very easy for me to turn away it's very easy for me to just not think about it when I'm at the store uh but then nothing changes you know if we kind of just look the other way or we push those feelings down or we move our attention somewhere else now I'm not saying that we self-sacrifice I'm not saying that we just wallow in it but as long as one of the teachers I was on retreat with last year I love this idea said take three small sips and then move on to something that brings you Joy so it's like take three small bites of that anger or dissatisfaction with capitalism or whatever it may be and then go do something that feels good you know like ease into it rather than becoming so overwhelmed by it thank you I am I keep wanting to hold the kind of both hand multiplicity of the some of the things that you've said um throughout this which is where in capitalism and the capitalism has a lot to do with the the self-serving and the hoarding and it's not necessarily the use of money right that those things aren't the same and it came up again for me like the discernment of that we talk about capitalism and we whoever we are but when I talk about capitalism or when I'm hearing it often I and I either I am completing or I'm hearing a completion of like capitalism of the as the waters we swim in as Society so when we say when somebody says the in in those quotes the end of capitalism I can hear it as they're saying the end of society which is maybe not the bad thing maybe it's just the end of capitalism on its way to a different use of money so I'm trying to hold all of that and it feels weird and awkward and big yeah and not to add to that feeling but where does altruism fit in there for you for me it's uh I don't know it builds the bridge right like if we're gonna get from the place where winning capitalism is having enough money to build a spaceship instead of feeding people like the decision of what to do with the hordes of dollars if dollars are going to stay of of value to redistribute that in a way that benefits people and the decision process the shift in decision process is benefits right it benefits people people instead of person or benefits the idea of the ways that companies have become self-perpetuating um and yeah that so I feel like it's the the like it's the road yeah yeah I love it I love that you said that build a bridge altruism gratitude gifting kindness all these ethics that we're exploring at the bridge yeah beautiful thank you Tia and and again also thanks for being real with that it's big how's it feeling to kind of be exploring sort of this this concept that that altruism is a disease to capitalism what's that feel like for y'all see a lot of wheels turning if I can jump in it's an extremely loaded way of talking about altruism yeah it is wow you know yeah it's like yeah uh sorry Tanya were you that's all I wanted to say is it's just that it's safe it is it is it's totally yeah kind of it stirs the pot right and it's true Angela yeah for me when it's framed that way it makes me feel I want no part of capitalism in that case if that's the ending of capitalism um and and I've heard uh our current system of capitalism described many ways like they call it late stage capitalism in fact recently I read an article uh where the pope uh said you know children families in Italy cannot afford to have children uh because the cost of living is so high and and he called it it's due to Savage capitalism I've never heard that before he called it Savage capitalism and and you have crony capitalism I mean on the whole um I I thought I I my my my thinking is that you know democracy is in place to hold capitalism in check the unrestrained uh capitalism right you need it but you need it uh it's it's it's maybe like the monkey but you need it constrained to be effective and and somehow um democracy is not very effective at this point in holding it under control or yeah so it's it's it's gone wild Capital hasn't gone wild that's what we are dealing with yeah absolutely and and same same kind of question like thank you for sharing that with that point of view uh and how does the altruism fit in there for you um so I mean it's a way to exchange goods altruism is bigger much much bigger for society to function you need altruism uh market and a market economy doesn't replace Society and so if all you have is a market economy then you don't have society and you don't and you don't have altruism and it's it's um not a good place to be I think if you put all your eggs in the basket of capitalism in a market economy and no no resources into uh maintaining community and society and social [Music] I know I I keep wondering they keep talking about economy economy economy all the time and I'm thinking what about Society where our social goods like why are we not focusing on social infrastructure and not just economic economic goals and because economy you can count but so good of society is a little difficult more difficult to measure well right right absolutely yeah and it's like how do we have an economy with social safety nets underneath it because I think that for me my viewpoint right now is that we capitalism gone wild we have no safety nets and in fact America in particular was designed that way right there it's just Liberty there is no Do no harm you know like do whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt someone else we don't have that it's just do whatever you want all right so uh yeah I I really appreciate the image that you're painting of like Society versus the economy and I think that that's why this these values these ethics are coming through in our society but not so much in our economy and so how do we bring those together uh uh Cecily hello I wondered if you could expand on your feeling that we don't have social safety nets in the U.S because we do but maybe because they're economic you're thinking of social as something different um sorry maybe because they're actually monetary that doesn't feel the same as social well because yeah and because they're linked directly with the economy so Equitable access to healthcare being number one for me you know that we have to pay for that so I think it's social I'm not promoting socialism I just won't say that no I am that's why my president me the ACA okay great I think that the [Applause] um I think that our social safety nets of like we're talking about well-being for all in this country right now the safety nets are well-being for some and so I think like how do we expand it so that people have access to health care and education and the resources that they need to not just survive but also thrive um so I do agree that there clearly are social some social safety nets in this country uh but in relation to like what we were talking about Angela house social Society plugs into economy it's really only benefiting a very small number of people um so what's your viewpoint on that I was barely politely typing in the chat so I wouldn't interrupt you again um yes here's the difference that you and I have uh it's um not bad even a little bit my social safety nets that I know my government offers are to keep you alive and your vision of social safety nets or to help you thrive and I agree we do not have the thriving and I also agree that the monetary options we have um while they will keep you alive they will not provide you with what's the thing inside you that makes you know that you're a good person okay sorry that's a real question say it again you conscious sorry I have Aphasia so sometimes I literally can't remember the word yeah they don't make you feel like a good person they don't let you know that you are supported they're just like finger wagging yeah so I'm keep you alive and and yours will help you thrive and now I can see the difference thank you yeah yeah and and interesting it's a really interesting conversation because then where does the term well-being fit in if we have what if we have Survival on one side and thriving on the other side where is well-being you know I think it's probably subjective but uh you know for me I know we have we do have enough resources on this planet for everyone to be doing more than just survive right and so I think for me and it can be different for all of us that the well-being is more on this end is on the thriving end but I really I really appreciate uh your point of view I want to okay go ahead yeah all right and all coming up to the surface now um one concern I have and I think I've brought this up before uh but I'll bring it up again but I won't talk about it is the number of human beings on this planet I think that's a huge problem that is not uh caused simply by or exacerbated simply by capitalism but it it it it exacerbates a lot of the problems we have and while I agree that there are enough resources on the planet now for everyone to thrive ish I think that that that's not unlimited and unless we decrease the number of human beings on this planet we're going to continue to destroy other living things and to some extent harm ourselves but what I really want to talk about was that I have a really hard time with limiting there's when you read uh Anne Randon I don't know her never met her but it seems to me that all of us experience altruism to a point I don't know if she has kids or siblings or parents that she loved and cared for and wanted good for but I'm guessing she did and I'm guessing all these people who espouse that altruism is the disease for capitalism do as well I think it's a matter of like where do you extend that sphere to and I think that's something that in this practice we do we talk about it all the time it's you know all sentient beings all sentient beings all sentient beings do we really not believe that other people's good benefits us everybody they're you know there are some sociopaths it's maybe half a percent of the population but pretty much everyone else understands that the benefit to others is benefit to ourselves but what do we mean by others and how can we extend that sphere Beyond you know my partner or my child or my best friend right right to include everyone and it's challenging and it's part of why the modern society and and the and going back to the population issue is that we're we're sort of uh evolved to live in small bands of human beings where you do know everyone and so it's a no-brainer to extend your altruism which I do believe is inherent you know to everyone but when it starts getting to like the way we live in the modern world in San Francisco is every day I see dozens or hundreds of people who I don't even know and so then it becomes this whole other practice to to extend my compassion and love and altruism to them not to mention to the whole world whatever that even means that you know going back to what Tia said like it it gets too big oh yeah but but on a day-to-day basis my practice is to do it with everyone I encounter yeah that's all I can do yeah that's embodying right that's embodying this ethic that we're talking about yeah thanks though yeah thank you can I say one more thing too sorry you know um you know I don't know that one has to come maybe click out like it's either altruism or capitalism and you can't have both it seems to me that there could be like a middle ground right there's ways of of being a um having a business that are have integrity and are how I would imagine allow people to have enough right without having to have as much as they can right and then and then their way of being in the community it's like you said you have to Res well it's and they're in the way that they use their resources to help others right so it's a balance right you know I think there's there's a middle ground you don't have to like burn the whole house down um I'm not an economist that just is just kind of how I feel but the way that our economy is going right now and the way that things are built in like you know having the stock exchange and all it's about is like profits it drives everything just for profit profit profit profit profit with without that kind of um you know I'm talking about these giant corporations like on a smaller scale smaller businesses I think are probably more likely to be able to function with Integrity but I just want to kind of put out there because I didn't it was feeling to me like it was like Burning Down The House like you either have one or the other but it seems to me that there's some way of coexisting yeah absolutely I'm so glad that that you said that and I agree I I don't think that this is about like getting rid of capitalism and then replacing it with um I don't know what the term for ulcers economy is like a gifting economy or something like that the the intention of this class is to stimulate conversation like this and I love what you were saying about how do we find and I think you use these words but how do we find the middle path you know how do we find balance and I think that there was in one of these readings about there is a certain level of creativity and Innovation that capitalism does stimulate um so how do we take the best of that model uh kind of the free market and incorporate it with Collective well-being and one of the themes that I've heard from three people already is size right it seems like this is more scalable within our friends our families our communities our direct businesses and so maybe that's just where we started so yeah I want to leave a little bit of time for practice but I know we have two more so let's go to Daniel a couple of thoughts about just from a personal perspective for me I feel like I need to be careful with how I think and engage in conversations like this first of all because in the past the feeling that feeling overburdened with my responsibilities has led me to harm and has also led me to try and be helpful in ways that were harmful and I'll give an example of each so for example I used to be an actor drug user very dangerous drugs and I remember the first time I got high the first thought I had was oh my God I don't have to worry about the environment that was the thought I had it was this feeling that this weight that I had been carrying my whole life was like I had was liberated from it so that's like a very clear example of self-harm in terms of for others you know I'm thinking about certain jobs that I had for example where I was for example going in as a white person into like a community of color where I you know thought that I like with a do-gooder kind of um intention without really a appropriate sense of humility about what I could could or could not bring to the table based on just my own life experiences and the way I look and that that there was a part of that tied into my own ego about my right-sightedness right decisiveness and so those are just a couple of things that weighs so I have to be really careful about how I engage with these topics and it's also very important for me to feel empowered like no matter what the conversation is you know I want to be able to not leave feeling crushed or or for me also to just to go into there's also I mean talk about self-centeredness there is such as there is a sense of narcissism and self-centeredness about just sitting there feeling like I'm responsible for everything and so I love this idea of just the people I interact with every day you know I can be a on the road on my motorbike occasionally yeah occasionally you know it's like that is something I have a lot more control over than capitalism and fixing it yeah thank you Daniel boundaries right we talked about I think it's super important that we make sure that we participate in this ethical orientation to life with very strong boundaries so that we're not causing harm to ourselves or others in an attempt to do good and then going back to this quote from actually recorded about um some people are naturally more altruistic than others at times to the point of heroism being a hero trying to save everyone trying to fix everything you know so I agree you know we have to we have to really monitor what our response is um and then again as you were saying keeping it small feels like there's this theme of like affecting action within a smaller a smaller Circle I do want to point out because we are talking about economy and capitalism our dollar our money and where we spend it is one of the most powerful ways that we have to affect change and so if you want to talk about empowerment it's in your pocket it's in your wallet so we vote with our money where we spend our money the organizations the product that we spend it on that's super powerful yeah your hand up yeah um I'm gonna I'm attempting for concise um I wanted to say at some point um that the altruism valve of the capitalism that we're experiencing in America maybe since the beginning but certainly since like 18 something is philanthropy um capitalists poured the money and then funnel it through philanthropy back into whatever they're funneling it into and uh uh modern day is you know the Gates Foundation can't give the money away fast enough Jeff bezos's ex can't give the money away fast enough um so there's a there's some striving in there but I think as a as a I don't think that we're I don't think that we're seeing it function altruistically the way we're talking about now and um uh there's a there's also in the way that capitalism functions the difference between the small companies and the large companies the small companies I think really are kind of using money as a means of exchange and corporations under corporate rules are kind of instructed it's in the structure that they hoard money and horde resources um recently which might be 10 years there's a new kind of Corporation that's at B Corp where you get to say my goal is not to hoard money my whole my goal is to use my profits for for the good of something I think Paul Newman's company is probably the the most well known but but B Corps are becoming more and more but it's changing the rules like that thing actually changes the rules about corporations which are the big vehicle of capitalism that we're living in um yeah that one of those things beautiful and what what is the Turning Point what's what makes the B Corp different than something else they don't have to like they need to be sustainable they can't operate at a loss in some ways that and they're not asking for donations the way nonprofits are but they are not required to maximize value for shareholders they can have different goals which are based in based on the the mission of the company um I the the one that one that I'm working for right now is to serve you know to serve the business interests of small businesses and and um and outline with outlier business owners right like that's their goal so they get to make choices that may not maximize profits that serve that goal right and that goal being to benefit others yes yes right so this is great you know like this is a big part of this this this time together is to talk about [Music] um Solutions and ways of offsetting and different models and so you know maybe going back to the the previous comment that I just made is like maybe that we're really making sure that we're you know what is the model of the organization that we're supporting with our money that we're buying product from is it a b Corp you know can we buy our clothes or our groceries from from organizations like this so I really appreciate that I really appreciate all of the the shares the the brave ones that talked about how difficult and uncomfortable it is the ones that talked about um Solutions and different ways of circumnavigating the problematic aspects of this form of economy in relationship to these ethics and especially that at that point that we heard from Tanya about the middle path about finding the balance and my my point of view is that as I said a couple times already tonight is that we have to protect our mind and our hearts from this all-pervasive corrosive way the society this economy that we live in and there are ways of doing and offsetting doing good practicing coming to classes like this taking this home and having conversations with people in your community or journaling about it tomorrow morning just let it really sink in uh and um each of the meditations that we've been doing have really been about cultivating these ethical values even among the exact opposite that we move about in the world uh so one of the best ways that we can bring positive constructive ethical change is to practice so let's do that for our last seven or eight minutes together one of the things that we talked about tonight was how um altruism covers this it's like this umbrella for a lot of the immeasurable qualities of the heart kindness compassion empathetic joy we heard equanimity so we're going to end our session tonight with just a little bit of a meta practice a loving kindness practice so altruism Being for the Benefit of all and loving kindness as a wish for happiness so these two handshake in this practice so maybe you'd like to close the eyes or soften the Gaze and just as we did at the start of the class just notice what's here energy in the body and the mind and the Heart these conversations may have stirred things up and so just noticing what it is that's here right now and so to begin this practice of loving kindness let's call to mind someone in our life that brings us joy smile to our face when we think of them perhaps imagining their image in front of you or just calling to mind their essence or likeness been called to mind that this loved one or close friend experiences joy and gratitude notice what arises as you reflect on the joy of this person and also that they experience stress fear anxiety doubt and notice what arises as you consider the suffering of this loved one and so in a way that feels comfortable for you we can bring those feelings of kindness altruism compassion into our heart and extend it to our loved one so maybe that's just extending this feeling of kindness or compassion maybe it's visualizing a light or an energy emanating From The Heart Center falling upon this loved one maybe it's offering them some wishes silently in your mind for happiness peace well-being perhaps there's an intention that you'd like to set to offer after this meditation this person a gift whether that's time an object or even just these silent wishes from your heart center right now then you're welcome to invite your loved one to stay with you for the next few minutes of this practice as we expand our awareness to all those that are gathered here in this class both on zoom and here at the center and calling to mind that just like you all of these folks experience Joy happiness pleasure an altruistic wish for them to continue experiencing happiness and its causes and also calling to mind that all of those in this room experience stress anger fear and the heartfelt wish of compassion for them to be at geese as they navigate difficulty perhaps you'd like to visualize this altruistic light emanating from your heart a wish for well-being of all of those gathered to our class tonight perhaps repeating those Praises silent in your mind wishes for happiness health peace ease and let's expand our awareness one more layer stretching that heart's eye to include all beings those that we know those that we don't know those that are near those that are far those that are in human form and also all the creatures in the land sea and sky and calling to mind that just like us all living beings want to be happy been free from suffering and so if you're working in a visualization of energy or light perhaps seeing that extending in all directions from the body out into the world touching every living being perhaps there's an altruistic wish that you would like to offer silently in your mind to all beings a wish for happiness for well-being for peace and even though this seems like a very tall order to Aspire for all beings to be happy and free from suffering this is the starting point this aspiration this altruistic orientation to life to move about the world in a way that benefits others while taking care of ourselves to discern and Choose Wisely our actions where we spend our money the media that we consume may all be for the greatest benefit of all beings where we end our session tonight perhaps there's an intention that you'd like to set silently in your heart a way of moving forward embodying this ethic of altruism in your own way whether big or small and there never really is an end to a practice like this so even though in a moment we're going to transition back to open eyes and awareness of the world around us perhaps considering to let this practice continue moving with you as you go out into the world allowing this beautiful altruistic heart of yours to lead and together let's follow the next breath deeply in through the body into the chest as we exhale letting go of our session tonight taking your time to transition back to Open Eyes if they were closed I'm going to offer deep house of appreciation and gratitude to each of you for coming and exploring these embodied ethics so we have two more sessions in this series so I hope to see you next week same time Dharma Collective is a Donna run organization so your support through a donation allows us continue to be in the space and online and support our teachers so maybe that's your first active embodied altruism is taking a donation if you can and if not a wish from your heart for the success of the center to continue propagating teachings like this is more than enough so thank you all

Peter Clutterbuck at Resolution for 2013.mp4
please leave your body material and as you Millicent you have vocal groups here in the region even active and more than 25 communities around problems with local groups to support essentially the main objectives in our right to be the eradicate power and deep poverty picture people on social assistance is the first step no one lives only eighty percent of the party line in province secondly I am working properly make sure people who are working at the low end of the labor market earn a minimum wage and get some out of poverty that we have under the recommends ten percent and we protect food money as necessary in terms of maybe sure housing and us are accommodated what people need and we look at the commissioners report a lot of time in love it but it could be of course agreed as your most of you do and I'm happy to their recommending a hundred dollars a month increase and what they call the standard rate for single people and they recognized me an advocacy that exists unfortunately they also are paying for them both pain without by hiding a good chunk of the special dye allowance of disability workers benevento and they only recommend eighty-six percent increase that's $86 most hundred dollars from people who are getting together which might see them see the people who live together and our social assistance do share costs when you're talking people that will win of the income side of things what he knows makes a difference you know and essentially have their daily expenses on based on the current rate or even the increase weeks ago $23 or forty dollars a day of Rome on business is a significant difference i recommend that we folks not be on the advocacy issues commissioners recommend a standard weight be established for all people on social assistance with but they call building blocks additional benefits will help them improve their income situation and also be available with a split transform assistant not just people on social assistance but working for people as well so they have but they consider to be a standard weight but they all basic measure value see if we want to point out some of the problems about to begin with first of all our real concerns is the commissioners no longer want to use the official poverty income measure of the low income and low income measured as the body official poverty line of the province is that everybody should be at least fifty percent of the median income to be able to be able to be considered out of poverty festa serious problem essentially there will be establishing what it means in terms of in terms of measuring progress as your distance in the labor market as opposed to your distance from the poverty line and we think that's a backward step we fought our in the poverty reduction strategy was was being developed 25 by Edward to one of our wings was to establish low-income measure used internationally as a basic measure of in harmony as being an investor should be used to determine those in poverty rules out of poverty and how we market our our progress which of the UK that you might expect will be the chart progress over time so we think actually kind of getting rid of the low income measured as our basic measure of official poverty by mid or ignoring just really not too is we do a backward step our next problem is that they talked about setting a new standard waiting all basic measure mathema see which when you actually look at the research that it's based on it's really not so much it is not a basic measure of advocacy it is really a basic measure of subsistence you know what people need medically to try to get through the month and essentially the one of the reasons we're doing this is what they call the fairest test of a disincentive to work test the angle the canard essentially that people if they are too much and social assistance that are going to want to work which hasn't been demonstrated any practical empirical ways or an ideological position than actually evidence-based position in terms of what the social systems rate should be we don't think that essentially a fairness deaths and based on distinguishing between the needs of people on social assistance and the needs of people are working for people in kind of disinfection like that is helpful we think the true measure of a fairness should be how much you know are these both populations being assistant to actually be part of society part of the community being included in terms of work another copy yes sir they have to offer as opposed to being kind of hidden against each other in terms of what's had it would to provide me too we had a labor market that actually provided a decent minimum wage that got the lot of poverty and was moving towards living wages that help people who said essentially itself so kind of incomes that they could learn to be more deeply entrenched in the mainstream society but that would be essentially the part that the fair test of what you know that atticus you should be when we look at but the minute when the commissioners are recommending even in terms of it what they call basic measure of advocacy which we do you think is basic measuring subsistence they're establishing our way even with one hundred dollars a month additional income increase for that were implemented their basic measure of adequacy would bring that standard rate up to an amount which is still for a single person about six thought South Walker's before below the official poverty line and for a single person with a child is what eight thousand dollars to devote the initial property line so essentially they're establishing a very slow floor under standard rate which it's uncertain how much adding additional benefits who salsa partner disability then does how much that is really going to bring people up to any measure so that is still may be undetermined and we were concerned also when you start to establish things that are based on standard baits bus supplemental benefits we know very well you can set up targets for when certain governments want to reduce whether we use of the overall weight that might reduce some of the methods we see that even turned to the implementation of the Attero child benefit you know first of all was accelerated it was decelerated first of all was given in terms of children and family and then it was at the same time reduced in terms the basic needs allowance to the parents so when you start to fragment the income security system in this way you give politicians a lot of targets and ways in which intermediates what's happening special diamonds what's even happening to the see some benefit rate you give all kinds of ways in which what look likes these significant changes I make it real impact on people's lives unfortunately but even look at where the subsistence of measure comes from it actually comes from social Planning Council of Winnipeg research was done from them by welding party schemes for her employee of the provincial government paid us a pretty good research based on what's called the market business market basket measured and he essentially based his research on the nature of the case law in Manitoba showing a lot more people we're a product me of the labor market for you know the reasons other issues as opposed to people who are kind of detached labor market and was less plus barriers to being able to impart the labor market and mr. Stevens oil when he actually does his research is quite clear that he's talking about a subsistence measure as opposed upper part of the population as opposed to an advocacy measure he talks about the basic beef budget covers the cosmic food clothing and footwear shelter personal needs and household supplies excluded from this budget our range of consumption is the Canadian families normally purchase like maintenance and repair furniture appliances home entertainment sports recreation equipment reading materials postural communication services all these are not included in what he would consider to be a poverty with a social assistance made based on on justice subsistence level of England I says over the longer term not having income sufficient that purchase these other custom services garmin consumed by a blowing up families in the individuals and families and social systems will dip them to their basic East budget the purchase that phone down where I do with other in the case of sports and recreation equipment and we join the absence of income increases children's risk of social exclusion a key rationale for including exciting to market basket measure for we've done was to measure standard of living that allowed participation of the rider community activities and social inclusion and when you look at blowing the measured is promoting European Union and the UN they actually look at poverty income measured based on the local come based on the lamb as a measure of inclusion of getting people out honks that they can never figure out and pay for what they need to have all these other things that these are part of the casebook population under the middle of the commissioners proposal would be a denial to people we look at what's providing the current standard wait until we had seventy percent of the poverty line now there is going to be something started with a standard way not to be a first step for data it was either that basically in the first instance brings people up to eighty percent uh don't be proud in poverty line and there were other additional supplements are needed to get people close to the pump suppose as possible about a mi another those who wrote in the labor market and still those who are working at the ten percent above the labour market because we have an adequate minimum wage if people what they need to make sure that other party so we essentially essentially I'd like to say something later on about the whole focus on this distance where the labor market is versus the distance from the poverty line is because I think that's a major major assumptions included in there that actually are reflected in terms of the advocacy levels that are being recommended in terms of social assistance I hope I get a chance to say that later but I know whether it's here I only for example power going to cover that and essentially i think i hope the twist is going to talk about a close to sarah economy that actually looks at how to essentially provide security to everybody whether the in the labor market road and provides a kind of labor market that we need so that everybody can participate assignment

ATTACKING THE LARGEST POINT OF THE MEDIA'S WAR ON VIDEO GAMES!!!
hey everyone what's up it's me cloud gaming here bringing you another red dot or another video but the background it's the um video that i was promising you guys earlier today i'm gonna go ahead and upload it today obviously but um it's basically dividing games callers violence i'm looking at um i'm looking at basically the biggest source of what the basically what the main extreme media uses i guess you could say here they are sure if you really want to call them that that's what they're tactically called but i really want to call them that then okay but um basically the statistic that i'm looking at is um violent crime rates um since uh since the 19th since 1991 or 1990 actually but the earliest that i um the earliest high that i saw was 1991 i'll get into that later but um let's go ahead and get into it i have um i have all the facts and stuff written down i'll have it in the description below but um um so basically i'm using the not only frame rates of total but i'm also using cram rates in the youth since the 1990s to 2018 um i researched both of them um they're both fbi findings they're both um per 100 000 people this is how many people um have done the violent crimes and this is not only murder which was what my last main video was about which is murder but this is other crimes such as so it's murder assault um kidnapping grand theft auto and other stuff like that but um so what i have done is basically per 100 000 the highest amount for total crime per 100 000 um 758 and that was all the way back that was back in 1991 758.2 per person and the lowest was 361.6 which this was this was uh six years ago this was 2014 but i have another one which is more recent um which but still this is basically halved before the first violent victim quote-unquote violent video game that came out which um what's in my last one which oh which was in my last video was super mario it was basically just emphasized how wide spoke that they have made um their quote-unquote violent video games how wide of a scope that it is it was super mario bros but um so the second statistic that they like to bring up is violent crimes in the use so um let me go ahead and bring this up um in 1995 8 thousand four hundred seventy six point two violent crimes um youth which is basically per minor out of a hundred thousand now if we go to the lowest crime rate of 2018 it is almost a fourth it's 2167.1 per 100 000 per 100 000. give or take a couple um but so since violent i think it's the qualification video games um since the first game that was actually had a decent amount of pixel i think it was eight bit pixels um crime is crime and youth has gone by down by almost a fourth and crime in the older um generation like it's not the older generation but older um so i think it's like useless um below 18 so and um oh and total no use was the one that i just covered um and then the other one was all all crime combined that's um that's above so that's anywhere from like i think i think it said anywhere from 10 years old to basically a senior citizen and it was 8 000 and it dropped all the way down to um it dropped all the way down to 21.67 since video games have occurred um merged in the video since the since super mario bros basically and on so that is that that in itself is the pretty large argument against video games but it still probably won't be enough so i'm gonna go ahead and amplify this argument um i guess not an argument i'm saying it um just to you guys correct me on anything that you guys find in the comments i'd like to um check resources back and forth if you guys want to if you guys disagree please do um tell me why and like uh show any evidence that you have or anything like that but anyway um there's also the argument though of desensitization to the younger audience and how it's a bad thing um which i agree to extend to an extent desensitization can be a bad thing but um in some cases it can also be a good thing so let's let's play deadpool tag again for those of you who don't know devil's advocate is basically a game where or a thought exercise i guess where you basically either bring up something to start a thought provoking argument or you attempt to see both sides of an argument so for this i'm going to say that for for the first part i'm going to say that final video games are not uh decent titan people um people who play violin video games are not desensitized at all and in this case violent video games or um for example i'm just going to use instead of mario for example because jumping on turtles wouldn't really teach you anything but violent video games such as call of duty or red redemption 2 other games like that can actually teach you a great bit about the real world um they can teach you about povertization or law or history in terms of red dead redemption and written redemption 2. they could teach you about crime um in the term of almost all rock star games they can teach you about war in the terms of call of duty um battlefield um which i guess could teach you about world wars um and they could teach you about all this other stuff and um if it does desensitize you um which again i'll be using for this if it does desensitize you then you are more likely to be able to use some of these things um if let's say it desensitizes you not only does it educate you about all this stuff this education um might persuade you to get um it's self-defense lessons or stuff that could er lessons in or training and stuff that could maybe help you protect yourself for the people um that you love or maybe in the terms of war it might um encourage you to invest in the military or something or maybe in terms of the crime and stuff it might and encourage you to maybe i don't know give give some more thought to charity or stuff like that in order to make it possible for some kids um or younger generations to not have to go into this um lifestyle where they have to go into a life of crime in order to survive at a younger age um but also what this comes at is by learning this stuff you are you might be better able to react in a situation and stay calm um in the midst of maybe um your house gets rocked or maybe you see somebody on the street being attacked or harassed and you can actually react to that stuff um without getting scared or panicking which in an effort situation could mean bladder could mean death um but now let's say it doesn't mean since decent disease let's say that don't get this exercise at all you still feel everything um violence still affects you just as much and that argument is completely irrelevant irrelevant you not only are more educated in this stuff all these things and more in um crime and propertization all this stuff but more likely to maybe take these classes in defending yourself or people that you love or something like that more likely than what um but you might also have the ability to try and reason with these people um maybe again if we use a scenario maybe you see somebody out on the streets um maybe playing these games could possibly give you more of a mindset into um some types of people who gave me this um maybe be able to not just defend yourself and other people but also be able to like help somebody get out of that life maybe somebody has to do this be in this life in order to survive and you can talk them you could say um and you could be like oh there's there's other things that it might not be as good but it's still a better life than this and you're not at and risk are just hypothetical of course but um but there's also the fact that through this again you can teach others about this maybe you're playing games or pl just playing games and you have the idea to enroll in the military to um help the world call of duty or something and you want to educate people on the experiences that you had but you do not think that by playing violent video games you are going to be able to enroll in the military by any means you're still gonna have to go to the training and everything holding a fake gun is nothing like holding a real gun there's recoil there's all these different things don't think that they're similar in any way if that's what you think they i mean that's it's not um but maybe through doing this through the information of what it's like um in other parts of the world or something you want to enlist in the military go through all of those training to get ready for combat and the world some battles in the military are fought for um for actual honorable reasons rather than just trade and stuff like that but anyway um let's say that you do let's say that you're not like before you're now actually fighting for a cause greater than yourself which you could say that oh you said uh unless in the military that's violent there's plenty of things that aren't violent in the military there's there's cyber um stuff there's uh protection so you're not going to be violent you're gonna die you're basically defending everything like that which is not causation it is merely causation video games did not cause um the violence but merely your profession did but anyway um with all these things with the fact that whether it does or doesn't cause desensitization let's just let's just leave that out of here um with the fact that the crime lights have dropped [Music] video games which cannot be defined um if if it's to the media standpoint depending on how it is described to other factors like mental illness and other stuff like that which if you want me to cover that in relation to video game violence please do tell me down below but all these different factors um we can't blame the single um offense to violence as violent video games it's it is insane borderline insane i should say and the media saying this is borderline insane as the the definition of insanity is doing something over and over and over and over again and expecting a different result and that is partially what the media has been doing first it was first it was the radio and then it was tv and then and now and even back and forth times older eras it was voice and i don't i just don't know wouldn't be enough for the generation to say okay i don't understand this that doesn't mean it's violent or that doesn't direct me i hope you guys enjoy this video i'll leave my i guess technically essay that i wrote about this which is a little more well written than i said if you guys didn't really like comment if you guys want to see um the difference between um video games and guns causing violence compared to how many of the school shooters or i guess not specifically super shooters but how many of these violent acts were caused by um illness um at home issues bullying that's cool different things like that because there are more crippling aspects of what makes somebody want to do these violent things than violent video games and there are many of us who play video games um such as red dead redemption modern warfare gta call of duty in general i should say gta um and different games like that who are not crazy and who are not psychopaths but are made out to be which is completely absurd and completely unreasonable and but if you guys do want to see um the good formation compared to causation of things like mental illness and other stuff like that please do tell me down below if you guys have any different facts and stuff that i didn't cover um please do tell me down below if you guys disagree please do tell me um again tell me down below i like to have a civil discussion not an argument not a debate i guess the debate is a civil argument but just a civil debate i guess um i ideologies um i'll see you guys in the next one you really made a name for yourself huh oh

Blood Bowl 2 - TEAM POSITIVITY vs. Wood Elves - Match5
how every welcome to team positivity game number five a huge TV advantage against woodies which is a double-edged sword I'm not just I'm not saying as the worst worst possible matchup but you know you can get a good start here or wizard stuff obviously I should be favorite crop basically just gonna just got to play better and then that's their shared spying my friends pleasures by they both think it's really good big both I'm not both of my friends I know - two of my friends play it there I know three people who play games workshop games well and two of them play each other and think it's good 40k riffs of Starship Troopers does it surely surely 40k was before Starship Troopers a bribe in a Tremont interesting decision goodbye son [Laughter] the book was written in 1959 alright fair enough fair enough yeah yeah the license a lot of things yeah yeah they give our they give our minds weird and it but I mean I think they should have tried to make a good one and the other oh there's that one Donna war isn't it I know about the other like Donn 59 yeah every that's true school that's cool fair enough that's fair enough the problem with [ __ ] minute 40km images is just the transportation like storage and transportation that's the killer that's the absolute the absolute killer is it's just storage in transportation you know I've got loads of got necro nekron army what a Space Marine army great Knight Army had an elder army high elves undead you know those are stuff but the problem is storing it and taking it anywhere to play and the setting up takes ages oh man you go a tournament you like you just [ __ ] get out you all your armies and that takes about 10 hours I'm definitely not gonna do any passes here I think I'll just carry on them on the blodger to be safe 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 good man turn one that seems as he was worth it give me the hip let him base alignment Whitson that's what seems good use frenzy to defend the ball need another one here don't hurt to base him then he comes around alright bit off-center for which elf and peaceable blitz one two three four five six yeah hopefully it does Evie you don't think pending 40 K is a pain yeah painting them it's also been enjoyable isn't it so I yeah painting around me is it depends doesn't it like you know painting it depends there's pros and cons to it because on the one hand having an unpainted Onias [ __ ] and having loads that you've gotta paint is really hot a nightmare but like I generally like painting it's just things get put off by how much if what I do isn't you know painting like to do is really cool but painting sitting there and thinking like god I've got all these armies to pain is a nightmare so yeah six and two threes I'd stay with it with a painting also when you're a little kid in your life Wow showing my age when you're a little kidding you like oh man I'll never be as good like McVeigh and I think his [ __ ] I'm actually you're not [ __ ] it's just that no one has it was night my way except might make very which is why he's made Macbeth you're not pretty much did not kill him spot times has lucky dingo guess what I want to do is you get away from them what answer so picking over the witch health what sounds horrible it could be your kids I don't know how a safety cage here I don't want the tree to be able put pressure on E humm day off and his most so much it over the failed the handoff couldn't have thought a fail a pickle but I think a handoff fail here isn't so bad Shane I didn't Casas wall dancer but one down as good isn't it cost me giving up a hit which is really really bad every metal for ten years well like it's different it's different in half that's pretty cool it's pretty it's you know it's obviously different for you who's good but you not I mean like when I was and it's different now with the internet but like when I was when I was a little kid on that you know buying white dwarf and what-have-you you know I used to think I was [ __ ] at painting and it was pretty like disillusioning but it was disheartening it was disheartening you know because the the I was all I could only compare myself pretty much of the people in white dwarf who were like the [ __ ] best in the world weren't me so yeah yeah I've got unpaired teams going on for a decade of war from Ajax I mean it doesn't help I've got like over 20 teams but and yeah the Congo applause can I apply the miniatures to [ __ ] collective images as well and then I don't [ __ ] it up I don't wanna [ __ ] up the models you know turn one room is glorious yeah that's true that's true excuse that's a very good that's a very good very good strategy I wish I had calmed down a bit right the only place safe from armless two ordinances so and go here for a turn to the options you know I'm nothing new Sevenfold next term and teach somewhere that's not really an issue what I want to do is get there here on the water answer here don't know somehow oh yeah he go there which huh I don't to make a GFI but if I could make a GFI he could blitz he could block he could blitz and then get the assist I don't I don't know for all two pluses I guess I have to I guess I have to make this gf I don't wanna but if it means hitting the ward answer with tackle it's probably worth it isn't it maybe get a surf as well one day [Laughter] worth it the dancer in it there is I could have served and actually with some kind of crazy Oh Gopal random random power they're pretty good right it's a good turn I shall just turn this off for a second hi is clinic there on the sheet I will never I will never attempt to surf ever again any attempted one like the turn after I wrote that on this sheet he's using these using a rear all night dodge I guess he was gonna get served and yes he thought it was worth it I mean I get this is all go out and come back and protective honest oh man yeah every metal is completely amazing it would be unbelievable being but you know as a thing I don't look at these things how much do you want to [ __ ] my models or you know I can I can imagine I can imagine that I could pet them as good as the pros one day whereas if I actually pay them avi I'll have to I'll have to a deal with the reality that painted a bit [ __ ] I'm glad he didn't push anyone in the tree escape yeah I've hosted I've hosted in fact and I know it's not it doesn't mean much or anything because how many viewers are getting how many may get but I've hosted the warhammer TV a few times and you know they they have some kind of painting things on sometimes and I thought that could be interesting I told you stay fantastic right I mean you could leap in and get the terrace cutter here company which is a bit crap inaudible it's the war dancer he can block him he can block him she can block him wanna hit the water and that's how I do it he has to block him and - he has to block him on - then he blocks him yes still the name is I should have gone three in four the sky so what starts this this starts it aha [ __ ] he's done assist Oh [ __ ] up get a navy break oh maybe I can hit the air he can could hit the air cutter I guess with the catcher and then here in fish for a cow maybe no blitz does it bring the witch after here walk him and then what's the country don't blitz the catch oven what's this guy nice cheekier be break yes now there's a bit of a cage isn't there half the pitch is a cage hopefully that's enough just [ __ ] wood Al's yeah ii-i've got a fully mechanized in PR me as well forgot to mention that oh yeah the spore mines I had 200 army as well I'd used over tyranny darling yeah he's gone for the week then so yeah I guess I should have gone three away cuz he's still getting to do the leap then he's got to make a GFI so at least it had something to see I can just go this way i how much is that he did it wrong there didn't he caused the leak takes two squares even if you only draw one but yeah I should have shouldn't let him go into they shouldn't let him go in the crowd shouldn't know looky I'm history roars gone so I got about I was looking out as I could have possibly gone didn't feel right so I can block him block him to there and then sir potentially a really good one getting lots of little blocks as well Oh sir like that's gonna happen look at the paper here look at the paper [Music] I mean it's all decided this coming turn isn't it really either I surface dancer and ruin him or he knocks out his own war dancer here and things dog conceit I mean he was horribly unlucky to her for his treat rude turn one but one VP for the Blitzer they've got a cast brilliant a great start for lemon is good I mean they've all will make more in in like you know tabletop kind of not able to like Nath style I'd make more leaves against higher quality opposition you gotta make a lot more leaps as well haven't you try and make something work and there's always the threat of the leap which is terrifying alright so still more star player on which of which of needs to get touchdowns obviously this guy needs one touchdown and then the [ __ ] are pretty much finished out and once they got butch these guys need an easy match like versus something that is an ad for so they can get their passes now I've got three rules the passes is something much more likely work that was a nice quick game wasn't it thanks for watching if you enjoyed it over leave a like and subscribe and stay fantastic

four types of the leaks are there salt water fresh water artificial leaks artificial leaks now the what's the role of the rivers in economy rule of rivers in economy what's the significance of the rivers and the lakes in the economy rivers rivers provide as a water for the agriculture for thailand's alluvial plains of india are the result of a deposition of sediments brought by the river to its in-coast and deposit at their valleys which resulted as the formation of punjab haryana uttar pradesh planes alluvial prince of india due to as a large number of rivers in india alluvial soil is a most widely spreaded over a landmass of india most extensive area extensive area of india is spread under the alluvial soils second rivers are a source of water for the domestic and industrial needs rivers they play as an important role in a uh important role in growth of industries urbanization navigation navigation rivers played an important role for a generation of hydro electricity hydel power stations dams which are built across the rivers dams built across the rivers supports for a generation of a hydroelectricity a number of dams built on a reversal on satellite dairy dam on a head stream of ganga so these number of dams helps for a generation of hydro electricity generation of hydroelectricity rivers are also the source of the marine life fish pc cultures are practiced in a large arena parts of those those rivers those rivers of a himalayan originate which are presently as the tributes of a large rivers as fish production for fish production rivers are used growth of the fishes etc clear so last as a gang action plan ganga action plan initiated by the government of india in a 1985 ganga action plan introduced by the government of india in 1985 according to which as a government took as a effort it took efforts for a cleaning of a ganga that ganga were polluted by their cities located at its basin ganga river basin lucknow lucknow haridwar allahabad these cities dear water domestic breeds water industrial wastewater it has directly discharged in a ganga river which pollutes it which is as the impact over the marine life of ganga especially the gangetic dolphins gangatic dolphins their population is affected as a larger in number due to the pollution increased in a ganga river system so such amount of pollution reduced by the ganga action plan which earlier initiated to clean ganga to make ganga as a free from pollution till 2000 but now as i re initiated till the 2025 in ganga it will be as a freed from a pollution for a proper implementation of a ganga action plan for which as a national river conservation plan initiated in 1995 in this process as all those savers which are polluted in a larger number for which as a government putting their efforts for which as a yamuna their protection in punjab there are the rivers satellite and the bias these are protected by the number of social activists one of them is a simple piece in sichuab which put their efforts for a conservation of our water resources balbil singh cicebal efforts it has given their effort for a conservation of our river water of abyas and saplog bias and sapload the causes which are responsible for the river water pollution in india are what are the causes responsible for the river water pollution are first reverse used for a bathing and washing purposes for washing off clothes washing off clothes religious ceremonies religious ceremonies are also influenced as some of the extent which leads to the river water pollution religious ceremonies in rivers next rivers are carrying the larger account larger quantities of a domestic industrial waste industrial and domestic waste which leads to the river water pollution industrial and domestic wastewater discharge in a river water for example as a yamana yamna drains as a domestic waste of delhi domestic and industrial waste of delhi example yamuna next rivers which are used for inland waterways inland waterways due to the oil spillage oil spillage leads to the river water pollution oil spillage from ships and boots lead suda which leads to the river water pollution oil spillage lead suda river water pollution next a modern inputs are farming modern inputs of farming which includes fertilizers excessive use of fertilizers insecticides radicides which leads to such number of materials chemical materials when they mix with the rainwater they go towards as the streams and pollutes the rivers which pollutes the rivers which pollutes the rivers clear this was our chapter drainage any questions at the beginning we discussed we started as a discussion of a chapter from a drainage patterns drainage pattern is generally carved by the river in its course with their tributary when the river flows through the different gradients slope of a region volume of a water velocity of a water types of a rocks nature of rocks influence as a formation over different types of drainage patterns in which we discuss as a trellis trellis rectangular radial centripetal then uh parallel pattern and dendritic pattern dendritic pattern then we discuss as a river system drainage systems deny system means growth of river and its stupidities in a passage of time afterwards sorry in drainage system we discussed as a two of the drainage systems himalayan river system second hazard peninsula river system himalayan rivers which are originated from the graciated parts of himalayas which are perennial in nature flow throughout the year like ganga indus and the brahmaputra river system and second peninsula river systems are seasonal in nature they are getting the water through the monsoonal rain through rain in a particular months of the year limited period of a year they are filled with water afterwards day drives under such circumstances peninsular river system in peninsular river systems most number of the areas the drainage basins of a rivers are having as a water scarcity because of the seasonal nature of rivers seasonal nature of rivers makes as a water scarcity in extensive areas of peninsula india so peninsula river system divided into two parts westward flowing rivers like looney and eastward flowing rivers clear we discussed in this chapter as the three courses of a river upper coast in which river having has a high velocity high velocity due to the steep sided slopes of our mountains under such circumstances river engaged in a deep water erosion downward erosion for example gorgeous canyons v-shaped valleys v-shaped valleys waterfalls are resulted on a upper coast of a river at this stage the river is a youthful in stage second state mature stage of a river middle stage of river whenever starts to cut their sights when the river leaves the mountains enters in a plane suddenly decreases their velocity decrease in a velocity resulted as a formation of planes alluvial planes in such parts as a meanders rivers start to flow according to the slope of a region which makes the meanders loops cutted from the main coast of a meander named as oxbow leagues river when can't carry as a larger boulders it start to deposit in its course which leads to formation of a river iron islands and when river river water river water their streams are flow along the riverine islands known as the braided scenes clear next the lower coast of area river old stage of river it is the mouth of a river where the river reaches at the mean sea level due to as a extremely low gradient low grade gradient gentle slopes river starts to divide it into the smaller distributes smaller distributes and a deposit of sediments in its bank in its course which leads to the formation of a deltas etudies levies and distributors clear and afterwards at the last lakes water bodies surrounded by the landmass named as a lakes lakes categorized into the four categories on the basis of their availability and their presence first tectonic leaks which are the resulting of convergent and divergent movements due to which acid depressions occur on a surface filled with water melted from glaciers and rain water second fresh water leaks rivers which are sorry those lakes which are the result of accumulation of rainwater on a surface are the sources of refresh water sources of fresh water these fresh water are the sources of rivers third salt water lakes both number of salt water leaks are located on a coastal regions of kerala and orissa in orissa as a chili cup which is the example of a lagoon when depressions are filled with depressions are filled with the saline water during the high tides known as a lagoon example cherika when when the gentle areas when the mean sea level it becomes as the similar to the land similar to the land which resulted the formation of formation of a brackish water bodies b r a c k i s h this is also example of a salt water leaks these are preferably lights in the parts of a carol bambanan bambang in kerala in rajasthan the formation of a salt water leaks is the result of excessive evaporation under high temperature under high temperature next the artificial leaks when humans they are manufacturing they are making acid leaks for their recreation or generation of a hydraulic city are the artificial leaks and in the end we discuss as a ganga action plan initiated in 1985 which modified into as the nrcp national river conservation plan in 1995 1995 for a conservation of all those rivers of india conservation of a rivers of india from pollution clear so next chapter as a climate next chapter climate next is there are now climate climate is concerned about the atmospheric conditions prevailing in a region atmospheric conditions prevailing in a region weather and climate both works as a side by side the weather keeps as a changing from hour to hour hour to hour and a day today weather is the atmospheric conditions which are changes hover to our and day to day for a shorter tenure of time which are related to the particular period of time particular period of time means when we are talking about atmospheric conditions of our jp nagar we will use the word weather whether of a gp naga it may vary from the adash nagar or shakti nagar clear but the climate is a extensive the broader term which means as long-term atmospheric conditions prevails in an extensive area when we're talking about atmospheric conditions of punjab or india or southeastern asia eastern asia or asia or earth then we will use as our northern hemisphere we will use the word climate climate is a broader term which has concern about the concern about the atmospheric conditions previous in extensive area atmospheric conditions prevailing in a extensive area for a longer duration of time climate of an area changes shower to our day to day but the sorry weather offer area particular place changes hour to hour or day to day climate of a country which changes has a 32-40 years 30 to 40 years the elements of a climate includes as a rainfall forms of rainfall forms of rainfall which includes dew frost dew frost hail dew frost hail fog water droplets snow these are the forms of rain second temperature third humidity fourth atmospheric pressure atmospheric pressure fifth prevailing winds all these are the all these are the elements of a climate elements of climate next the elements of the weather are elements of weather are which includes hazard temperature and precipitation only rainfall and precipitation rainfall and temperature rainfall and temperature associated with a particular place of area in gp nether when the rain has recorded rain occur in the same time may be possible data such differences are due to as a weather it's due to the weather clear next is the factors which are affecting as a climate of world climate of a world which are influenced by a certain number of factors are there factors are there the latitudes first latitudes on equatorial areas are low latitudes generally there are the higher temperature has prevails throughout the year due to the high temperature more evaporation and more precipitation occur on equatorial areas zero to the 10 degree northern and southern parts daily as a rain has received daily rain record due to the vertical sundays mix as a possibilities of more evaporation and condensation process more evaporation and condensation as compared to the equatorial areas as compared to the equatorial areas the polar regions they are receiving as a less amount of rain less amount of rain clear next the altitude when we move the upward direction temperature decreases temperature decreases during some months over june planes of indus and ganga they are experienced as a hot and dry summer conditions hot and dry summer conditions weather conditions are prevailing over a great prince of india in the same time on our himalayan regions the temperature is a low that decrease in a temperature is due to the normal lapse rate decrease in temperature with increase in altitude with increase in altitude decrease in temperature that decrease in temperature has decreases with the rate of after 165 meters of height one degree celsius temperature decreases 165 meters of height one degree celsius or one after every 1000 meters means one kilometers of the height six point two five degrees celsius temperature decreases six point two five degrees celsius temperature decreases and this drastic fall in a temperature continues till the extent of a troposphere its average height has a 13 to 14 kilometers from a mean sea level troposphere till that extent as a fall in temperature has recorded fall in temperature continuously has recorded on a surface till the height of a till the extent of a troposphere extent of troposphere clear tell there any questions any questions next distance from the sea when we move away from the water bodies areas are experiencing as the areas experiencing as the extreme weather conditions the landlocked areas they are experienced as the extreme weather conditions extreme weather conditions that's why in the southern states coastal parts of india coastal parts of gujarat maharashtra goa karnataka keral tamil nadu andhra pradesh orisha they are experiencing some moderate weather conditions throughout the year it's due to as are those sea breezes sea breezes the movement of the wind from a sea to land which decrease as a surface temperature of surface temperature of their adjoining areas as they are compared as compared to the coastal legends landlocked conditions and landlocked areas they are experiencing as extreme weather conditions during summers are too hotter during winters as a two cooler so it's due to azure drive ends which are blowing from a land to the sea land breezes makes as the land breezes mix as extreme weather conditions prevailing over extreme weather conditions prevailing over the land landlocked areas delhi delhi amritsar jalandhar they are experiencing as extreme during the summers as a too hotter till the 46 47 degree celsius temperature recorded in a plane such praise of india and during as a winter's temperature as recorded as the during winters as zero degree celsius zero degree celsius during the winters during summers as of 47 48 degrees celsius temperature recorded clear fourth factor affecting as a climate of the earth as a distance between sun and earth distance between sun and earth influence the climatic conditions of different regions for example earth earth rotates around the earth revolves around the earth revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbital plane elliptical orbital field the total distance in between after earth and sun when it is as a nearest to is it when earth is nearest to the sun in that state the total distance in between order both as a 147 147.1 million kilometers 147.1 mil 47.1 is a perihelion situation and apparent situation when the distance between earth and sun has a maximize 152.1 million kilometers 152.1 million kilometers if the sundays cross a longer distance in a state of appealing more absorption of a sun seat by the atmosphere those elements which are present in the atmosphere they will absorb the incoming solar radiation insulation means incoming solar radiation sunlight incoming solar radiation more absorption will occur on a occur by the atmosphere means gases dust particles and water vapours water vapors but in other seats perihelion state when the distance between earth and sun as a minimum under such circumstances less absorption it will be as recorded it will be as occur by the atmosphere under such circumstances under such circumstances there will be a more heat received on a earth surface earth surface supposed factor influencing as a climate of the earth fifth vector influencing the factor of the uh over equator sun's rays fall vertical over the equator equator to the tropical areas and sun rays are fall vertical over there yes now i am edible now voice is clear arbitrage now is it clear now is it clear okay when sunday sun says they may fall as a vertical overhead twitter vertical over equator this state is known as equinox if the sun's rays are a vertical over equator means has a more heat receives on a equatorial areas or a turret zone zero to a twenty three and halfway north to the south zero to twenty three and half degree north and south the more heat it will be as a receiving compatibility comparatively the whole world areas when sun rays sun says they are moving towards as a polar regions due to as a curvature curvature of the earth's surface less heat has receiving on a earth surface it's due to as a distance more distance covered by the sun's rays to travel and reach over the surface of the earth crust surface of the earth grass but as compared to this the situation of equinox equinox when the sun rays are fall may fall vertical over equator vertical over equator it has happens twice in a year it happens as a twice in a year when sundays are fall vertical over a equator these are the months of march and march and september september 21st of june 21st of june sundays are for vertical over 23 and a half degree tropic of cancer 23.5 degree 23 and half degree tropic of cancer as their opposite has 22 or 23 of december sundays are fall vertical over a topic of capricorn tropic of capricorn the state is known as a winter solstice winter solstice it is known as summer solstice summer solstice this rate is known as a winter solaces when sensories are fall vertical over may fall vertical over capricorn and when sunsets are fall vertical over equator as the ethynoxis equinox so 23rd of march 22nd 23rd of march sunsets fall vertical over equator zero degree zero degree on equator afterwards sunset is moving towards the 21st of june tropic of cancer again as of 23rd of september on equator then the 22nd third december of a tropic of capricorn again moving towards earth so most of most of the times sun's rays they may fall vertical over the vertical over the turret zone torrid zone zero to 23 and half degree nothing in the southern parts which has influenced the climate of area when some studies are fall vertical over a torrid zone more heat receiving on our torrid zone comparatively temperate and frizz its own as compared to temperate and frigid zones these are the factors the major factors influencing as a climate of earth which are influencing as the climate of earth other factors for example i said differential characteristics of land and water what are having as transparency river water ocean sea waters trees are having as a transparency and neither static under influence of a prevailing winds water bodies are their water hazard moving from one place towards other one place towards other so under such circumstances heat which has a concentrated honor water bodies it has spread in a larger extensive area which this is the reason responsible for the reason responsible for the longer time taken by the water bodies for the heating and cooling processes as their opposite land surfaces they are not having as a transparencies so when heat concentrated on a land which heated the land surfaces as a sudden invade same as the air cools down land surfaces are cools down that's why during asa summers during summers and deserts daytime temperature receiving as a high due to the vertical sun rays in a rajasthan gujarat makes the high temperature in night time when the temperature released by the earth's surface through the process of a re-radiation process of re-radiation through which as such parts of rajasthan and gujarat has experienced as a low temperature in a midnight high range of temperature recorded in a desert areas high range of temperature recorded in a desert areas which are experiencing as a extreme weather comparatively the coastal and centralized parts of our country clear these are the major factors influencing as climate of a world climate of world next now the factors which are affecting as a climate of india india's climate this is as tropical as well as a sub-tropical climate india's climate is a tropical as well as a subtropical climate tropical in the sense the areas which are located at the south of the tropic of cancer means gujarat madhya pradesh maharashtra karnataka kerala telangana andhra pradesh these states allies under monaco islands luxury violence they are located as the south of the topic of cancer south of tropic of cancer which are experiencing as a tropical weather conditions as their opposite north of a topic of cancer these regions are subtropical regions subtropical regions which are experienced as extreme weather conditions these states includes gnk punjab haryana rajasthan uttar pradesh they are located north of a topic of cancer which experience the extreme weather conditions extreme that's why we call india's climate is a tropical as well as subtropical climatic conditions prevailing in our country we use in context of india's climate as a monsoons we use the term monsoons in context of india's climate monsoon term derived from the arabic word which means arabic word mossim which means as a reversal of winds reversal of winds earlier those winds which move from south towards or north see towards a land afterwards they start to move from a land towards the sea land towards sea or north towards southward reversal of winds monsoons makes asset difference in between our summers and winters summers which are running in our country experience in our country in a march april and may afterwards as the june july august is advancing monsoon season september october are the retreating monsoon season in november december january february as again winters begin so in between our summers and winters break is caused by the monsoons that's why we call india's monsoon india's climate is a monsoon also india's climate is a monsoon the term monsoon derived from the muslim word arabic word alpha muslim which means as reversal of wind this type of a climate this monsoon type of a climate is found mainly in the south and south eastern asian countries despite an overall unity overall unity and commonality in the general pattern there are the perceptible regional variations in climatic conditions within a country the temperature touches as high as 55 degrees celsius in the western deserts during as a summer season whereas it drops down as low as minus 45 degree celsius in a upper altitudinal parts of a gnk in sierra glacier in sierra chin glacier in la la da during the winter season similarly as the variations are the noticeable not only in the type of precipitation but also in its amount also northeastern states assam regalia receives a plenty of rainfall due to the excessive rain recorded in a meghalaya the world's wettest place situated at this state named as some merchandise which deceives more than 1200 centimeters located in a east of a country as their opposite west of a country jaisalmer barmaid they are receiving as a less than 20 centimeters annual rainfall such kind of differences the variations recorded in a physiography as well as climatic conditions of india is that clear so today this much we discuss as a factors affecting as a factors affecting the climate of climate of earth that's it that's we will continue in our next class any questions any questions any question next period we will discuss studying as a factors affecting climate of india which includes jet streams himalayas jet streams himalayas latitudes latitudes prevailing conditions over conditions prevailing in us surrounding regions of india and varied reliefs reliefs of india they are also influencing as a climate of india impact over a climate of india clear

SCP-2295 The Bear with a Heart of Patchwork |object class Safe
Item #: SCP-2295 Object Class: Safe Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2295 is to be kept in a standard containment locker within Storage Wing-25 in Site-37. Personnel with Level 3 or higher security clearance are authorized to perform tests on SCP-2295 after filling out the appropriate paperwork. Please contact Dr. Gergis if required access to SCP-2295 is expected to exceed twenty-four (24) hours. Description: SCP-2295 is a patchwork stuffed bear, approximately 0.46m from 'head' to 'foot,' and stuffed with synthetic fiber and cotton. SCP-2295 has a small, anatomically correct pin of a heart on the left side of its thorax, and a bow wrapped around its neck. The fabric and color of SCP-2295's patches vary. Tests confirm that no components of SCP-2295 contain any anomalous chemical properties. SCP-2295 enters an active state when within two (2) meters of a human sustaining major trauma to an organ. When in the proximity of two or more possible subjects, SCP-2295 will invariably choose the youngest subject. SCP-2295 will anomalously produce scissors, white thread, and either sewing needles or a crocheting hook from its mouth and use any fabric and stuffing in close proximity to fashion an instance of SCP-2295-1, a patchwork imitation of the subject's organ. Footnote 1: Materials have included yarn, textile, cloth, cotton, silk, synthetic fiber, polyester, wool, and thread. Footnote 2: How SCP-2295 is capable of the dexterity necessary for these actions is unknown. SCP-2295-1 vanishes from sight and the subject falls into a state of unconsciousness. SCP-2295-1 instances then replace the subject's damaged organ via anomalous means. The whereabouts of organs replaced this way are undetermined. If there is no usable material in close proximity, SCP-2295 will use fabric and stuffing from itself. SCP-2295 regenerates one (1) gram of stuffing every day until completely replacing any lost or used stuffing. Note that fabric used this way does not regenerate, and additional fabric must be placed near SCP-2295 for the purpose of self-mending. Instances of SCP-2295-1 successfully carry out their respective functions despite the numerous expected biological, chemical, and medical incompatibilities. Once within the subject, adjacent tissues and veins attach to the imitated organ without observable complications. There have been no cases of rejected SCP-2295 instances, and all subjects recorded at the time of writing made full recoveries. Test Log-2295 Testing approved to test the limitations of SCP-2295. Materials provided within testing chamber. Subject: D-2353, 38 years old Diagnosis: Lungs heavily damaged as a result of twenty-five (25) years of smoking Notes: SCP-2295 creates SCP-2295-1 using one (1) black textile swatch and one (1) red textile swatch. New 'lungs' act at a capacity similar to those of healthy adult lungs. Subject: D-3452, 50 years old Diagnosis: Frequent heart palpitations and severe atherosclerosis Notes: SCP-2295 crochets SCP-2295-1 using various surrounding yarns. SCP-2295-1 observed to have a heartbeat before vanishing. Transfer successful - how SCP-2295-1 manages to perform function despite absorbent properties of material and multiple gaps in design is unknown. Symptoms no longer present in subject. Subject: D-7894, 24 years old Diagnosis: First and second degree burns ranging throughout upper torso, left lateral, and right leg. D-7894 sedated during testing. Notes: SCP-2295 sews two (2) 5m x 5m sections of patchwork fabric. SCP-2295 cuts appropriately sized swatches and manually places one layer onto subject's affected areas, creating multiple instances of SCP-2295-1, and then repeats this process. The created SCP-2295-1 layers act as dermis and epidermis and, upon recovery, D-7894 claims to have retained feeling in replaced 'skin'. Subject makes a full recovery. Subject: D-2723, 18 years old Diagnosis: Cerebral hemorrhaging Notes: SCP-2295 grasps various materials in its proximity in a distressed state for approximately one (1) minute. SCP-2295 then anomalously produces a ███████'s Dove Milk Chocolate King Size Candy Bar and offers it to subject. SCP-2295 spends rest of test embracing subject's lower right leg while anomalously producing a saline solution from its 'eyes'. Addendum-2295: Document 2295 was recovered taped to SCP-2295 inside the site of a crashed mail delivery vehicle. Document-2295 is a red "Get Well" card with the text "KAIROS THE BEAR" written on the front cover. Contents of Document 2295 To Tommy, Because only time can mend all wounds. Love, Grammy

HR when he was alive used to live a good deal in Dublin and he was once a great while out of the country on account of the 98 business but the servants kept on in the big house at Roth all the same as if the family was at home well they used to be fr frightened out of their lives after going to their beds with the banging of the kitchen door and the clattering of fire irons and the pots and plates and dishes one evening they sat up ever so long keeping one another in heart with telling stories about ghosts and fetches and that when what would you have of it the little skullery boy that used to be sleeping over the horses and could not get room at the fire crept into the hot Hearth and when he got tired listening to the stories sort of fear him but he fell dead asleep well and good after they were all gone and the kitchen fire raak up he was walk with the noise of the kitchen door opening and the trampling of an ass on the kitchen floor he peeped out and what should he see but a big ass sure enough sitting on his carab Bingo and a yarning before the fire after a little he looked about him and began scratching his ears if he was quite tired and says he I may as well begin first as last the Poor Boy's teeth began to chatter in his head for say he now he's going to EIT me but the fellow with the long ears and tail on him had something else to do he stirred the fire and then he brought in a pale of water from the pump and filled a big pot that he put on the fire before he went out he then put in his hand uh foot on I mean into the hot Hearth and pulled out the little boy he let her Roar out of him with the Fright but the Poke only looked at him and thrust out his lower lip to show how little he valued him and then he pitched him into his Pew again well he then lay down before the fire till he heard the bile coming on the water and maybe there wasn't a plate or a dish or a spoon on the dresser that he didn't Fetch and put into the pot and wash and dry the whole Bing of them as well as air a kitchen made from that to Dublin town he then put all of them up on their places on the shelves and if he didn't give a good sweep into the kitchen leave it till again then he comes and sets form at the boy let down one of his ears and cocked up the other and gave a grin the poor fella strove to Roar out but not a deag to come out of his throat the last thing the PO had done was to rake up the fire and walk out given such a slap of the door that the boy thought the house couldn't help tumbling down well to be sure if there wasn't a Holo next morning when the poor fella told his story they could talk of nothing else the whole day one said one thing another said another but a fat lazy schullery girl said the wittiest thing of all MOA says she if the PO does be cleaning up everything that way when we are asleep what should we be slaving ourselves for doing his work hug goodine says another them's the wisest words he ever said cop it's me won't contradict you so said so done not a bit of a plate or dish a drop of water that evening and not a bessom was laid on the floor and everyone went to bed soon after some down next morning everything was as fine as fine in the kitchen and the Lord mayor might eat his dinner off the flags it was great ease to the lazy servants you may depend and everything went on well till a fool hearty gag of a boy said he would stay up one night and have a chat with the puka he was a little daunted when the door was thrown open and the ass marched up to the fire and then sir says he at last picking up courage if it isn't taken a liberty might I ask who you are and why you are so kind as to do half of the day's work for the girls every night no Liberty at all says the puka says he I'll tell you in welcome I was a servant in the time of Squire R's father and was the laziest Rog that ever was clothed and fed and done nothing for it when my time came for the other world this is a punishment was laid on me to come here and do all this labor every night and then go out in the cold it isn't so bad in the F weather but if you only knew what it is to stand with your head between your legs facing the storm from Midnight to sunrise on a bleak winter night and could we do it anything for your comfort me poor fellow says the boy MOA I don't know says the poer but I think a good quilted freeze cour would help to keep the life in me them long nights why then in trth we'd be the ungrateful of people if we didn't feel for you to make a long story short the next night but two the boy was there again and if he didn't Delight the poor PUK holding up a fine warm coat before him it's no matter between the PO and the man his legs was got into the far arms of it and it was buttoned down the breast and the belly and he was so pleased he walked up to the glass to see how he looked well says he it's a long Lane that has no turning I am much obliged to you and your fellow servants you have made me happy at last good night to you so he was walking out but the other cried a sure you're going too soon what about the washing and sweeping ah you may tell the girls that they must now get their Turn My Punishment was to last till I was thought were the ever reward for the way I done me Duty you'll see me no more and no more they did and right sorry they were for having been in such a hurry to reward The Ungrateful puka end of the kildair puka the solitary fairies the bansi the bansi from b b a woman and she she a fairy is an attendant fairy that follows the old families and none but them and whales before a death many have seen her as she goes wailing and clapping her hands the Keen Keen the funeral Cry of the peasantry is said to be an imitation of her cry when more than one banshe she is present and they wail and sing in chorus it is for the death of some holy or great one an omen that sometimes accompanies the bansi is the coab Bower coow an immense black coach mounted by a coffin and drawn by head less horses driven by a dulahan it will go rumbling to your door and if you open it according to kroer a basin of blood will be thrown in your face these headless Phantoms are found elsewhere than in Ireland in 1807 two of the centes stationed outside St James Park died of fright a headless woman the upper part of her body naked used to pass at midnight and scale the railing ings after a Time the sentries were stationed no longer at the haunted spot in Norway the heads of corpses were cut off to make their ghosts feeble thus came into existence the dulahan perhaps unless indeed they are descended from that Irish giant who swam across the Channel with his head in his teeth Ed end of the solitary fairies how Thomas Connelly met the Banshee J Todd Hunter ah the banshe sir well sir as I was striving to tell you I was going home from work one day from Mr Cassidy that I told you of in the dusk of the evening I had more nor a mile I it was near Two Mile to thr to where I was lodging with a decent wedy woman I knew bitty Maguire B name so is to be near me work it was the first week in November and a lome road I had to travel and dark enough with threes above it and about halfways there was a bit of a bridge I had to cross over one of them little strains that runs into the daughter I walked on in the middle of the road and there was no toll path at that time Mr Ary nor for many a long day after that but as I was saying I walked along till I come now upon the bridge where the road was a bit open and there Ro enough I seen the Hogs back of the oldfashioned bridge that used to be there till it was pulled down and a white Mist steaming up out of the water all around it well now Mr Harry often as I'd passed by the place before that night it seemed strange to me and like a place he might see in a dream and as I come up to it I began to feel a cold wind blowing through the hollow of me heart Mo Thomas says I to myself is it yourself that's in it says I or if it is what's the matter with you at all at all says I so I put a bald face on it and I made a struggle to set one leg before the other until I came to the RO of the bridge and there God be good to us in a candle of the wall I seen an old woman as I thought sitting on her hunkers all crouched together and her head bowed down seemingly in the GR Affliction well sir I pied the old creature and thought I wasn't worth a thine for the Mortal fright I was in I up and says to her it's a cold loding for ye M well the S po she says to that nor took no more notice of me than if I hadn't let a word out of me but kep her rocking herself to and fro as if her heart was breaking So I says to her again again ma'am is there anything the matter with G I made for to touch her on the shoulder only something stopped me for as I looked closer at her I saw she was no more an old woman or was she an old cat the first thing I took notice to Mr Harry was her hair that was string down over her shoulders and a good yard on the ground in each side of her oh be the Hokey farmer but that was the hair the likes of it I never seen on Mortal woman young or old before nor since it grew as strong out ofs out of air a young slip of a girl you could see but the color of it was a mystery to describe the first squint I got of it I thought it was silvery gray like an old Cron's but when I got up beside her I saw by the glance of the sky it was a sort of an escarate color and a a shine out of it like floss silk it ran over her shoulders and the two shapely arms she was laying in her head on for all the world like Mary magdalene's in a picture and then I perceived that the gray cloak and the green ground underneath it was made of no earthly material I ever laid eyes on now I needn't tell you sir that I seen all this in the twinkle of a bad post long as I take to make the narration of it so I made a step back from her and the Lord be Tunas and arm says I out loud and with Dad I blessed myself well Mr Harry the word wasn't out of me mouth before she turned her face on me a Mr Harry but was that was The awfulest Apparition ever I seen the face of her as she looked up at me God forgive me for saying it but it was more like the face of the axy homo Beyond in the mar BR Street Chapel nor like any face I could mention as pale as a corpse and the most of freckles on it like the freckles of a turkeyy egg and the two eyes sewn in with red thread from the terrible power of crying they had to do in such a pair of eyes as the world Mr Harry as blue as to forget me nuts and as cold as the moon in a b hole of a frosty night and a dead and L look in him that sent a cold shiver through the Mara and me bones be the martal you could have run a take up full of cold perspiration out of the hery head that minute so ye could well I thought the life would leave me entirely when she Rise Up from her hunkers till B dead she looked mostly as tall as Nelson's pillar and with the two eyes gazing back at me and her two arms stretch out before her and a keen out of her that rised the haam me sculp till it was stiff as the Hogs bristles in a new Hearth broom away she Glides Glides around the angle of the bridge and down with her into the stream that ran underneath it it was then I began to suspect what she was weas Thomas says I to myself says I and I made a great struggle to get me two legs into a throt in spite of the spaven aight the of the Moran and how I brought myself home that same night the Lord in heaven Only Knows for I never could tell but I must have tumbled again the door and shot in head foremost into the middle of the floor where I lay in dead Swoon for mostly an hour and the first I knew was Mrs Maguire standing over me with a Jor of a punch she was pouring down me throat to bring back the life into me and me head in a pool of cold water she dashed over me in her first fright AR Mr Connelly sh she what H she say she to put the scare on a lawn woman like that say she am I in this world or the next says I Musha where else would you be only hear in me kitchen says she oh glory be to God says I but I thought I was in paratory at the least not to mention an uglier Place says oi only it's too cold I find myself and not too hard says I fith and maybe you are more or halfways there only for me say she but what's come to you talal is it your fetchy seen Mr Connelly ah nol says I never mind what I seen says I so be degrees I began to come to a little and that's the way I at the Banshee Mr Harry but how did you know it really was the banshe she after all Thomas the garer I knew The Apparition of her well enough but was confirmed by the circumstance that occurred the same time there was a Mr O Nails was come on a visit you must know to a place in the neighborhood one of the old o nails of the county Tyrone a real old Irish family and the Banshee Was Heard Keening around the house that same night be more than one that was in it and sure enough

but the night wind sweeping down the hollow Glenn the Banshee of The McCarthys T cofton kroer Charles McCarthy was in the year 1749 the only surviving son of a very numerous family his father died when he was a little more than 20 leaving him the McCarthy estate not much encumbered considering that it was an Irish one Charles was gay handsome and fettered either by poverty a father or Guardians and therefore was not at the age of 1 and 20 a pattern of regularity and virtue in plain terms he was an exceedingly dissipated I fear I may say debouched young man his companions were as may be supposed of the higher classes of the youth in his neighborhood and in general of those whose fortunes were larger than his own whose dispositions to pleasure were therefore under still less restrictions and in whose example he found at once an incentive and an apology for his irregularities besides Ireland a place to this day not very remarkable for the coolness and steadiness of its youth was then one of the cheapest countries in the world in most of those articles which money supplies for the Indulgence of the passions the odious exciseman with his portentious book in one hand his unrelenting pen held in the other or stuck beneath his hatband and the ink bottle black emblem of the Informer dangling from his weset button went not then from alh house to alh housee denouncing all those patriotic dealers and Spirits who preferred selling whiskey which had nothing to do with English laws but to lud them to retailing that poisonous liquor Which derived its name from the British Parliament that compelled its circulation among a reluctant people or or if the gager recording Angel of the law wrote down the padillo of a Publican he dropped a tear upon the word and blotted at out forever for Welcome to the tables of their hospitable neighbors the Guardians of the exis where they existed at tal scrupled to abridge those luxuries which they freely shared and thus the competition in the market between The Smuggler who incurred little Hazard and the personage E clapped Fair Trader who enjoyed little protection made Ireland a land flowing not merely with milk and honey but with whiskey and wine in the enjoyment supplied by these and in the many Kindred Pleasures to which frail youth is but too prone Charles McCarthy indulged to such a degree that just about the time when he had completed his far and 20th year after a week of great excesses he was seized with a violent fever which from its malignity and the we weakness of his frame left scarcely a hope of his recovery his mother who had at first made many efforts to check his vices and at last had been obliged to look on his rapid progress to ruin and Silent despair watched day and night at his pillow the anguish of Parental feeling was blended with that still deeper misery which those only know who have striven hard to rear in virtue and py a beloved and favorite child have found him grow up all that their hearts could desire until he reached manhood and then when their pride was the highest and their hopes almost ended in the Fulfillment of their fondest expectations have seen this Idol of their affections plunge headlong into a course of her Reckless profligacy and after a rapid career of Vice hang upon the verge of Eternity without the Leisure or the power of repentance fervently she prayed that if his life could not be spared at least the delirium which continued with increasing violence from the first few hours of his disorder might vanish before death and leave enough of light and of calm for making his peace with offended heaven after several days however nature seemed quite exhausted and he sunk into a state too like death to be mistaken for the Repose of sleep his face had that pale glossy marble look which is in general so sure a symptom that life has left its tenement of clay his eyes were closed and sunk the lids having that compressed and stiffened appearance which seemed to indicate that some friendly hand had done its last office the lips half closed and perfectly ashy discovered just so much of the teeth as to give to the features of death their most ghastly but most impressive look he lay upon his back with his hands stretched beside him quite motionless and his distracted Mother after repeated Trails could discover not the least symptom of Animation the medical man who attended having tried the usual modes for ascertaining the presence of Life declared at last his opinion that it was flown and prepared to depart from the house of mourning his horse was seen to come to the door a crowd of people who were collected before the windows or scattered in groups on the lawn in front gathered around when the door opened these were tenants fosterers and poor relations of the family with others attracted by affection or by that interest which partakes of curiosity but is something more and which collects the lower ranks around a house where a human being is in his passage to another world they saw the professional men come out from the hall door and approach his horse and while slowly and with a Melancholy air he prepared to mount they clustered around him with inquiring and wistful looks not a word was spoken but their meaning could not be misunderstood and the physician when he had got into his saddle and while the servant was still holding the bridal as if to delay him and was looking anxiously at his face as if expecting that he would relieve the general suspense shook his head and said in a low voice it's all over James and moved slowly away the moment he had spoken the women present who were very numerous uttered a shrill cry which having been sustained for about half a minute fell suddenly into a full loud continued a discordant but plaintive wailing above which occasionally were heard the Deep sounds of a man's voice sometimes in deep sobs sometimes in more distinct exclamations of Sara this was Charles Foster brother who moved about the crowd now clapping his hands now rubbing them together in an Agony of grief the poor fah had been Charles's Playmate and companion when a boy and afterwards his servant had always been distinguished by his peculiar regard and loved his young Master as much at least as he did his own life when Mrs mcarthy became convinced that the blow was indeed struck and that her beloved Son was sent to his last account even in the blossoms of his sin she remained for some time gazing with fixedness upon his cold features then as if something had suddenly touched the string of her tenderest affections tear after tear trickled down her cheeks pale with anxiety and watching still she continued looking at her son apparently unconscious that she was weeping without once lifting her handkerchief to her eyes until reminded of the sad duties which the custom of the country imposed upon her by the crowd of females belonging to the better class of the peasantry who now cry in audibly nearly filled the apartment she then withdrew to give directions for the ceremony of wgon and for supplying the numerous visitors of all ranks with the freshments usual on these Melancholy occasions though her voice was scarcely heard and though no one saw her but the servants and one or two old followers of the family who assisted her and the necessary arrangements everything was conducted with the greatest regularity and though she made no effort to check her SARS they never once suspended her attention now more than ever required to preserve order in her household which in this season of Calamity but for her would have been all confusion the night was pretty far Advanced the boisterous Lamentations which had prevailed during part of the day and and about the house had given place to a solemn and mournful Stillness and Mrs McCarthy whose heart notwithstanding her long fatigue and watching was yet too sore for sleep was kneeling in fervent prayer in a chamber joining that of her son suddenly her devotions were disturbed by an unusual noise proceeding from the persons who were watching round the body first there was a low murmur then all was silent as if the movements of those in the chamber were checked by a sudden panic and then a loud Cry Of Terror burst from all within the door of the chamber was thrown open and all who were not overturned in the Press rushed wildly into the passage which led to the stairs and into which Mrs McCarthy's room opened Mrs McCarthy made her way through the crowd into her son's chamber where she found him sitting up in bed and looking vacantly around like one risen from the grave the glare thrown upon his sunk features and thin ly frame gave an une Earthly horror to his whole aspect Mrs McCarthy was a woman of some firmness but she was a woman and not quite free from the superstitions of her country she dropped on her knees and clasping her hands began to pray aloud the form before her moved only its lips and barely uttered mother but though the pale lips moved as if there was a design to finish the sentence the tongue refused its office Mrs McCarthy sprung forward and catching the arm of her son exclaimed speak in the name of God and his Saints speak are you alive he turned to her slowly and said speaking still with apparent difficulty yes my mother alive and but sit down and collect yourself I have that to tell which will astonish you more than what you have seen he leaned back upon his pillow and while his mother remained kneeling by the bedside holding one of his hands clasped in hers and gazing on him with the look of of one who distrusted all her senses he proceeded do not interrupt me until I have done I wish to speak while the excitement of returning life is upon me as I know I shall soon need much Repose of the commencement of my illness I have only a confused recollection but within the last 12 hours I have been before the Judgment seat of God do not stare incredulously on me it is as true as have been my crimes and as I trust shall be repentance I saw the awful judge arid in all the Terrors which invest him when mercy gives place to Justice the Dreadful pump of offended omnipotence I saw I remember it is fixed here printed on my brain and characters indelible but it passes human language what I can describe I will I may speak it briefly it it is enough to say I was weighed in the balance and found won the irrevocable sentence was upon the point of being pronounced the eye of my Almighty judge which had already glanced upon me half Spar my Doom when I observed the guardian said to whom you so often directed my prayers when I was a child looking at me with an expression of benevolence and compassion I stretched forth my hands to him and besought his intercession I implored that one year one month might be given me on Earth to do Penance and atonement for my transgressions he threw himself at the feet of my judge and supplicated for Mercy oh never not if I should pass through 10,000 successive states of being never for eternity shall I forget the horrors of that moment when my fate hung suspended when an instant was to decide whether torments unutterable were to be my portion for Endless ages but Justice suspended its decree and mercy spoke in accents of firmness but mildness return to that world in which thou Hast lived but to outrage the laws of him who made that world and thee three years are given thee for repentance when these are ended Thou shalt again stand here to be saved or L forever child strength continued just long enough to finished these last words and on uttering them he closed his eyes and lay quite exhausted his mother though as was before said somewhat disposed to give credit to Supernatural visitations yet hesitated whether or not she should believe that although awakened from a swoon which might have been the crisis of his disease he was still under the the influence of delirium Repose however was at all events necessary and she took immediate measures that he should enjoy it undisturbed after some hours sleep he awoke refreshed and then forward gradually but steadily recovered still he persisted in his account of the vision as he had at first related it and his persuasion of its reality had an obvious and decided influence on his habits and conduct he did not altogether abandon the Society of his former Associates for his temper was not soured by his Reformation but he never joined in their excesses and often endeavored to reclaim them how his Pious exerion succeeded I have never learned but of himself it is recorded that he was religious without ostentation and temperate without austerity given a practical proof that Vice may be exchanged for virtue without the loss of respectability popular ity or happiness time rolled on and long before the three years were ended the story of his vision was forgotten or when spoken of was usually mentioned as an instance proven the Folly of believing in such things Charles Health from the temperance and regularity of his habits became more robust than ever his friends indeed had often occasioned to Rally him Upon A seriousness and abstractedness of demeanor which grew upon him as he approached the completion of his 7 and 20th year but for the most part his manner exhibited the same animation and cheerfulness for which he had always been remarkable in company he evaded every Endeavor to draw from him a distinct opinion on the subject of the supposed prediction but among his own family it was well known that he still firmly believed it however when the day had nearly arrived on which the prophecy was if at all to be fulfilled his whole appearance gave such promise of a long and healthy life that he was persuaded by his friends to ask a large party to an entertainment at Spring House to celebrate his birthday but the occasion of this party and the circumstances which attended it will be best learned from a perusal of the following letters which have been carefully preserved by some relations of his family the first is from Mrs McCarthy to a lady a very near connection and valued friend of hers who lived in the county of car at about 50 Mi distance from Spring House to Mrs Barry Castle Barry Springhouse Tuesday Morning October 15th 1752 my dearest Mary I am afraid I'm going to put your affection for your old friend and kinswoman to a severe trial a two- days journey at this season over bad roads and through a troubled country it will indeed require friendship such as yours to persuade a sober woman to encounter but the truth is I have or fancy I have more than usual cause for wishing you near me you know my son star I can't tell you how it is but his next Sunday approaches when the prediction of his dream or Vision will be proved false or true I feel a sickening of the heart which I cannot suppress but which your presence my dear Mary will soften as it has done so many of my Saras my nephew James Ryan is to be married to Jane osbor who you know is my son's Ward and the bridal entertainment will take place here on Sunday next though Charles pleaded hard to have it postponed for a day or two longer would to God but no more this till we meet do Prevail upon yourself to leave your good man for one week if his farming concerns will not admit of his accompanying you and come to us with the girls as soon before Sunday as you can ever my dear Mary's attached cousin and friend an McCarthy although this letter reached Castleberry early on Wednesday the messenger having traveled on foot over B and mo by paths impassible to horse or Carriage Mrs Barry who at once determined on going had so many arrang to make for the regulation of her domestic affairs which in Ireland among the middle orders of the Gentry fall soon into confusion when the Mistress of the family is away that she and her two young daughters were unable to leave until late on the morning of Friday the eldest daughter remained to keep her father company and superintend the concerns of the household as The Travelers were to journey in an open oneh horse vehicle called a Jon car still used in Ireland and as the roads bad at all times were rendered still worse by the heavy rains it was their design to make two easy stages to stop about Midway the first night and reach Spring House early on Saturday morning this Arrangement was now altered for they found that from the lateness of their departure they could proceed at the utmost no farther than 20 miles on the first day and they therefore purposed sleeping at the house of a Mr Burke a friend of theirs who lived at somewhat less than that distance from Castle Barry they reached Mr Burks in safety after a rather disagreeable roid what befell them on their Journey the next day to Springhouse and after their arrival there is fully recounted in a letter from the second Miss Barry to her eldest sister Springhouse Sunday evening 20th October 1752 dear Ellen as my mother's letter which encloses this will announce to you briefly the sad intelligence which I shall here relate more fully I think it better to go regularly through the recital of the extraordinary events of the last two days the Burks kept us up so late on Friday night that yesterday was pretty far Advanced before we could begin our journey and the day closed when we were nearly 15 miles distant from this place the roads were excessively deep from the heavy rains of the last week and we proceeded so slowly that at last my mother resolved on passing the night at the house of Mr burk's brother who lives about a quarter of a mile off the road and coming here to breakfast in the morning the day had been windy and showery and the sky looked fitful gloomy and uncertain the moon was full and at times Shone clear and bright at others it was wholly concealed behind the thick black and rugged masses of clouds that rolled rapidly along and were every moment it becoming larger and collecting together as if gathering strength for a coming storm the wind which blew in our faces whistled bleakly along the low Ledges of the narrow road on which we proceeded with difficulty from the number of deep sloths and which afforded not the least shelter no Plantation being within some miles of us my mother therefore asked lar who drove the jnan car how far we were from Mr barks is about 10 spars from this to the cross and we have then only to turn to the left into the Avenue ma'am very well lirry turn up to Mr Burks as soon as you reach the crossroads my mother had scarcely spoken these words when I shriek that made us thrill as if our very Hearts were pierced by it burst from the Hedge to the right of our way if it resembled anything Earthly it seemed The Cry of a female struck by a sudden and mortal blow and given out her life in one long deep Pang of expire and Agony Heaven defend us exclaimed my mother go you Over the Hedge Larry and save that woman if she is not yet dead while we run back to the Hut we have just passed and alarm The Village near it woman said lirry beating the horse violently while his voice trembled that's no woman the sooner we get on ma'am the better and he continued his effort effs to Quicken the horse's Pace we saw nothing the moon was hid it was quite dark and we had been for some time expecting a heavy Fall of Rain but just as Larry had spoken and had succeeded in making the horse trot briskly forward we distinctly heard a loud clapping of hands followed by a succession of Screams that seemed to denote the last excess of Despair and anguish and to issue from a person running forward inside the head hedge to keep Pace with our progress still we saw nothing until when we were within about 10 yards of the place where an Avenue branched off to Mr Burks to the left and the road turned to Springhouse on the right the moon started suddenly from behind the cloud and enabled us to see as plainly as I now see this paper the figure of a tall thin woman with uncovered head and long hair that floated around her shoulders attired in something which seemed either a loose white cloak or a sheet thrown hastily about her she stood on the corner hedge where the road on which we were met that which leads to Springhouse with her face towards us her left hand poined to this place and her right arm waving rapidly and violently as if to draw us on in that direction the horse had stopped apparently frightened at the sudden presence of the figure which stood in the manner I have described still uttering the same piercing cries for about half a minute it then leapt upon the road disappeared from our view for one instant and the next was seen standing upon a high wall a little way up the avenue on which we were purposed going still pointing towards the road to Spring House but in an attitude of defiance and command as if prepared to appause our passage up the Avenue the figure was now quite s silent and its garments which had before flown Loosely in the wind were closely Wrapped Around It Go on Larry to Spring House in God's name said my mother whatever World it belongs to we will provoke it no longer is the beny ma'am said ly and I would not for what my life is worth go anywhere this blessed night but the spring house but I'm afraid there's something bad going forward or she would not send us there so saying he draw forward and as we turned on the road to the right the moon suddenly withdrew its light and we saw The Apparition no more but we heard plainly a prolonged clapping of hands gradually dying away as if it issued from a person rapidly retreating we proceeded as quickly as the Badness of the roads and the fatigue of the poor animal that ruus would allow and arrived here about 11:00 last night the scene which awaited US you have learned from my mother's letter to explain it fully I must recount to you some of the transactions which took place here during the last week you are aware that Jane Osborne was to have been married this day to James Ryan and that they and their friends had been here for the last week on Tuesday last the very day on the morning of which cousin McCarthy dispatched the letter inviting us here the whole of the company were walking around the grounds a little before dinner it seems that an unfortunate creature who had been seduced by James Ryan was seen prowling in the neighborhood in a moody Melancholy state for some days previous he had separated from her for several months and they say had provided for her rather handsomely but she had been seduced by the promise of his marry in her and the shame of her unhappy condition in with disappointment and jealousy had disordered her intellects during the whole for noon of this Tuesday she had been walking in the plantations near Springhouse with her cloak folded tight round her the hood nearly covering her face and she had avoided conversing with or even meeting any of the family Charles McCarthy at the time I mentioned was walking between James royan and another at a little distance from the rest on a gravel path SC skirt and a Shrubbery the whole party was thrown into the utmost consternation by the report of a pistol fired from a thickly planted part of the Shrubbery which Charles and his companions had just passed he fell instantly and it was found that he had been wounded in the leg one of the party was a medical man his assistance was immediately given and on examining he declared that the injury was very slight that no bone was broken it was merely a flesh wound and and that it would certainly be well in a few days we shall know more by Sunday said Charles as he was carried to his chamber his wound was immediately dressed and so slight was the inconvenience which it gave that several of his friends spent a portion of the evening in his apartment on inquiry it was found that the Unlucky shot was fired by the poor girl I just mentioned it was also manifest that she had aimed not at Charles but at the destroyer of her innocence and happiness who was walking beside him after a fruitless search for her through the grounds she walked into the house of her own accord laughing and dancing and singing wildly and every moment exclaiming that she had at last killed Mr Ryan when she heard that it was Charles and not Mr Ryan who was shot she fell into a violent fit out of which after working convulsively for some time she sprung to the door escaped from the crowd that pursued her and could never be taken until last night when she was brought here perfectly frantic a little before our arrival Charles's wound was thought of such little consequence that the preparations went forward as usual for the wedding entertainment on Sunday but on Friday night he grew restless and feverish and on Saturday yesterday morning felt so ill that it was deemed necessary to obtain additional medical advice two Physicians and a surgeon met in consultation about 12:00 in the day and the Dreadful intelligence was announced that unless a change hardly hoped for took place before night death must happen within 24 hours after the wound it seems had been too tightly bandaged and otherwise injudiciously treated the Physicians were right in their anticipations no favorable symptom appeared and long before we reached Springhouse every Ray of Hope had vanished the scene we witnessed on our arrival would have rung the heart of a demon we heard briefly at the gate that Mr Charles was upon his death bed when we reached the house the information was confirmed by the servant who opened the door but just as we entered we were horrified by the most appalling screams issuing from the staircase my mother thought she heard the voice of poor Mrs McCarthy and sprung forward we followed and on ascending a few steps of the stairs we found a young woman in a state of frantic passion struggling furiously with the two men servants whose anointed strength was hardly sufficient to prevent her rushing upstairs over the body of Mrs McCarthy who was lying in strong hysterics upon the steps this I afterwards discovered was the unhappy girl I before described who was attempting to gain access to Charles room to get his forgiveness as she said before he went away to accuse her for having killed him this wild idea was mingled with another which seemed to dispute with the former possession of her mind in one sentence she called on Charles to forgive her in the next she would denounce James Ryan as the murderer both of Charles and her at length she was torn away and the last words I heard her scream were James Ryan it was you killed him and not I it was you killed him and not I Mrs McCarthy on recovering fell into to the arms of my mother whose presence seemed a great relief to her she wept the first tears I was told that she had shed since the fatal accident she conducted us to Charles's room who she said had desired to see us the moment of our arrival as he found his end approach and and wished to devote the last hours of his existence to uninterrupted prayer and meditation we found him perfectly calm resigned and even cheerful he spoke of the awful event which was at hand with with courage and confidence and treated it as a doom for which he had been preparing ever since his former remarkable illness and which he never once doubted was truly foretold to him he bad his Farewell with the air of one who was about to travel a short and easy journey and we left him with Impressions which not withstanding all their anguish will I trust never entirely forsake us poor Mrs mccarth arthy but I'm just called away there seems a slight stir in the family perhaps the above letter was never finished the enclosure to which it more than once alludes told the sequel briefly and it is all that I have ever further learned of the family of McCarthy before the sun had gone down upon Charles 7 and 20th birthday his soul had gone to render its last account to its creator end of section 15 recording by Douglas Taylor squim Washington on Facebook at Papa Doug actor

a pale of boiling water without thinking of the warning words instantly a cry Was Heard as of a person in pain but no one was seen however the next night a black lamb entered the house having the back all fresh scaled and it laid down moaning by The Hearth and died then they all knew that this was a spirit that had been scalded by the woman and They Carried the dead lamb out irreverently and buried it deep in the earth yet every night at the same hour it walked again into the house and lay down moaned and died and after this had happened many times the priests were sent for and finally by the

of Irish peasantry edited and selected by WB Yates section 20 the radiant boy Mrs Crow Captain Stewart afterwards Lord CER when he was a young man happened to be quarter in Ireland he was fond of sport and one day the pursuit of game carried him so far that he lost his way the w other two had become very rough and in this tra he presented himself at the door of a gentleman's house and sending in his card requested shelter for the night the hospitality of the Irish Country Gentry is proverbial the Master of the House received him warmly said he feared he could not make him so comfortable as he could have wished his house being full of visitors already added to which some strangers driven by the inclement of the night had sought shelter before him but such a commendation as he could give he was heartly welcome to where upon he called his Butler and committing the guest to his good offices told him he must put him up somewhere and do the best he could for him there was no lady the gentleman being a widower Captain Stewart found the house scammed and the very jolly party it was his host invited him to stay and promised him good shooting if he would prolong his visit a few days and in fine he Tau himself extremely fortunate to have fallen into such Pleasant Quarters at length after an agreeable evening they all retired to bed and the butler conducted him to a large room almost divested of furniture but with a blazing Turf fire in the r and a Shakedown on the floor composed of cloaks and other heterogeneous materials nevertheless last to the tired limbs of Captain stward who had had a hard days shooting it looked very inviting but before he laid down he thought it advisable to take off some of the fire which was Blazing up the chimney in what he thought an alarming manner having done this he stretched himself on his couch and soon fell asleep he believed he had slept about a couple of hours when he awoke suddenly and was startled by such a vivid light in the room that he he thought it on fire but on turning to look at the great he saw the fire was out though it was from the chimney the light proceeded he sat up in bed trying to discover what it was when he perceived the form of a beautiful naked boy surrounded by a dazzling Radiance the boy looked at him earnestly and then the vision faded and was all dark Captain stward so far from supposing what he had seen to be of a spiritual nature had no doubt that the host or the visitors had been trying to frighten him accordingly he felt indignant at the liberty and on the following morning when he appeared at breakfast he took care to Evin his displeasure by the reserve of his demeanor and by announcing his intention to depart immediately the host expostulated reminding him of his promise to stay and shoot Captain stward coldly excused himself and at length the the gentleman seeing something was wrong took him aside and pressed for an explanation whereupon Captain stward without entering into particulars said he had been made the victim of a sort of practical joking that he thought quite unwarrantable with a stranger the gentleman considered this not impossible amongst the parcel of stuffless young men and appealed to them to make an apology but one and all on honor denied the impeachment suddenly a seemed to strike him he clapped his hand to his forehead uttered an exclamation and rang the bell Hamilton said he to the butler where did Captain stward sleep last night well sir replied the man you know every place was full the gentlemen were lying on the floor three or four in a room so I gave him the boy's room but I lit a blazing fire to keep him from coming out you are very wrong said the host you know I have positively forbidden you to put anyone there and have taken the furniture out of the room to ensure it's not being occupied then retiring with Captain Stewart he informed him very Gravely of the nature of the phenomena he had seen and at length being pressed for further information he confess that there existed a tradition in the family that whoever the radiant boy appeared to to will rise to the summit of power and when he has reached the climax will die a violent death and I must say he added that the records that have been kept of his appearance go to confirm this persuasion and of the radiant boy the fate of Frank M William Carlton there lived a man named M at the hip of one of the mountains Hills which divide the country of teror from that of monagan this McKenna had two sons one of whom was in the habit of tracing hairs of a Sunday whenever there happened to be a fall of snow his father it seems had frequently remonstrated him with upon what he considered to be a violation of the Lord's day as well as for his General neglect of mass the young man however felt otherwise harmless and inoffensive was in this matter quite insensible to paternal Repro and continued to trace wherever the avocations of labor would allow him to it so happened that upon Christmas morning I think in the year 1814 there was a deep fall of snow and Yana instead of going to MOS cut down his stick which is a staff much thicker and heavier at one and then at the other and prepared to set out on his favorite Amusement his father seeing this reproved him seriously and insisted that he should attend prayers his enthusiasm for the sport however was stronger than his love of religion and he refused to be guided by his father's advice the old man during the altercation got warm and on finding that the son obstinately scorned his authority he knelt down and pray that if the boy persisted in following his own will he might never return from the mountains unless as a corpse the impation which was certainly as harsh as it was imperious and senseless might have startled man a mind from a purpose that was to save the least of it at variance with religion and the respect due to a father it had no effect however upon the son who is said to have replied that whether he ever returned or not he was determined on going and go accordingly he did he he was not however alone for it appears that three or four of the neighboring young men accompanied him whether their sport was good or otherwise is not on to the purpose neither am I able to say but the story goes that towards the later part of the day they started a larger and darker hair than any they had ever seen and that she kept Doling on before them bit by bit leing them to suppose that every succeeding C of the stick would bring her down it was observed afterwards that she also LED them into the recess of the mountains and that although they tried to turn her course Homeward they could not succeed in doing so as evening Advanced the companions of Manana began to feel the Folly of pursuing her further and to perceive the danger of losing their way in the mountains should night or snow storm come upon them they therefore proposed to give over the Chase and returned home but McKenna would not hear of it if you wish to go home you may said he as for me I'll never leave the hills till I have her with me They begged and intreated of him to deist and return but all to no purpose he appeared to be what the Scots call Fay that is to act as if he were moved by some impulse that leads to death and from the influence of which a man cannot withdraw himself at length on finding him invincibly obstinate they left him pursuing the hair directly into the heart of the mountains and returned to their respective homes in the meantime one of the most terrible snow storms ever remembered in that part of the country came on and the consequence was that the self-willed young man who had equally trampled on the sanctities of religion and parental Authority was given over for for lost as soon as the Tempest became still the neighbors assembled in a body and proceeded to look for him the snow however had fallen so heavily that not a single Mark of a footstep could be seen nothing but one wide waste of white undulating heels met the eye wherever it turned and of McKenna no Trace whatever was visible or could be found his father now remembering the unnatural character of his imprecation was nearly distracted for although the body had not been yet found still by everyone who witnessed the sudden Rage of the storm and who knew the mountains Escape or survival was felt to be impossible every day for about a week large parties were out among the Hill ranges seeking him but to no purpose at length there came a th and his body was found on a snow wrath lying in a spine posture within a circle which he had drawn around him with his stick his prayer book lay opened upon his mouth and his head was pulled down so as to cover it and his face it is unnecessary to say that the rumor of his death and of the circumstances under which he left home created a most extraordinary sensation in the country a sensation that was the greater in proportion to the uncertainty occasioned by his not having been found either alive or dead some affirmed that he had crossed the mountains and was seen in monogan others that he had been seen in clones in m in five M town but despite all these agreeable reports The Melancholy truth was at length made clear by the appearance of the body as just stated now it so happened that the house nearest the spot where he L was inhabited by a man named Deli I think but of the name name I am not certain who was a her or caretaker to Dr Porter than Bishop of clur the situation of this house was the most lonely and desolate looking That Could Be Imagined it was at least 2 miles distant from any human habitation being surrounded by one wide and Dre waste of dark Mo by this house later root of those who had found the corpse and I believe the door of it was borrowed for the purpose of of conveying it home B this as it may the family witnessed The Melancholy procession as it passed slowly through the mountains and when the place and circumstances are all considered we may admit that to ignorant and superstitious people whose Minds even upon ordinary occasions were strongly affected by such matters it was a sight calculated to leave behind it a deep if not terrible impression time soon proved that it did so an incident is said to have occurred at the funeral in finee keeping with the Wild Spirit of the whole mly event when the procession had Advanced to a place called moltini a large dark colored hair which was instantly recognized by those who had been out with him on the Hills as The Identical one that led him to his fate is said to have crossed the roads about 20 yards or so before the coffin The Story Goes that the man struck it on the side with a stone and that the blow which would have killed any ordinary hair not only did it know injury but occasioned a sound to proceed from the body resembling the hollow one emitted by An Empty Barrel when struck in the meantime the interment took place and The Sensation began like every other to die away in the natural progress of time when Behold a report ran abroad like wildfire that to use the language of the people Frank Mna was appearing one night about a forthnight after his funeral the daughter of Del the her a girl about 14 while lying in bed saw what appeared to be the likeness of mcken who had been lost she screamed out and covering her head with the bed clothes told her father and mother that Frank McKenna was in the house this allow arming intelligence naturally produced great Terror still dally who not withstanding his belief in such matters possessed a good deal of moral courage was cool enough to rise and examine the house which consisted of only one apartment this gave the daughter some courage who on finding that her father could not see him ventured to look out and she then could see nothing of him herself she very soon fell asleep and her father attributed what she saw to fear or some accidental combination of Shadows proceeding from the furniture for it was a clear Moonlight night the light of the following day dispelled a great deal of their apprehensions and comparatively little was thought of it until evening again Advanced when the fears of the daughter began to return they appeared to be prophetic for she said when night came that she knew he would appear again and accordingly at the same hour he did so this was repeated for several successive nights until the girl from the very Hardy hood of Terror began to become so far from me realized to the Spectre as to venture to address it in the name of God she asked what is troubling you or why do you appear to me instead of to some of your own family or relations the ghosts answer alone might settle the question involved in the authenticity of its appearance being as it was an account of one of the most ridicurous missions that ever a spirit was dispatched upon I'm not allowed said he to spake to any of my friends for I parted with them in anger but I'm come to tell you that they are quarreling about my breaches a new pair that I got made for Christmas Day and as I was coming up to chance in the mountains I thought the old one would do better and of course I didn't put a new pair on me my reason for appearing he added is that you may tell my friends that none of them is to wear them they must be given in charity this serious and solemn intimation from the ghost was dly communicated to the family and it was found that the circumstances were exactly as it had represented them this of course was considered a sufficient proof of the truth of its Mission their conversations now became not only frequent but quite friendly and familiar the girl became a favorite with the Spectre and the Spectre on the other hand soon lost all his terrors in her eyes he told her that whilst his friends were burying home his body the hands spikes or poles on which They Carried him had cut his back and the cake ented him great pain The Cutting of the back also was known to be true and strengthened of course the truth and authenticity of their dialogues the whole neighborhood was now in a commotion with the story of The Apparition and persons insided by curiosity began to visit the girl in order to satisfy themselves of the truth of what they had heard everything however was corroborated and the child herself without any symptoms of aniy or Terror artlessly related her conversations with the spirit in hurtle their interviews had been allal but now that the ghost found his footing made good he put a Hardy face on and ventured to appear by daylight the girl also fell into stairs of synal and while the fits lasted now conversation with him upon the subject of God the Blessed Virgin and heaven took place between them he was certainly an excellent moralist and gave the best advice swearing drunkness theft and every evil propensity of our nature were declaimed against with a degree of spectral eloquence quite surprising common Fame had now a topic dear to her heart and never was a ghost made more of by his best friends than she made of him the whole country was in a tumult and I will remember the crowds which uh flocked to the lonely little cabin in the mountains now the scene of matter so interesting and important not a single day passed in which I should think from 10 to 20 30 or 50 persons were not present at the singular interviews nothing else was talked of thought of and as I can well testify dreamt of I would myself have gone to D were it not for a confounded misgiving I had that perhaps the ghost might take such a fancy of appearing to me as he had taken to cultivate an intimacy with the girl and it so happens that when I see the face of an individual nailed down in the coffin chilling and gloomy operation experienced no particular wish to look upon it again the spot where the body of M was found is now marked by a little heap of stones which has been collected since The Melancholy event of of his death every person who passes it throws a stone upon the hip but why this old custom is practiced or what it means I do not know unless it be simply to Mark the Spot as a visible means of preserving the memory of the occurrence D's house the scene of the supposed Apparition is now a shapeless ruin which could scarcely be seen were it not for the green spot that once was a garden and which now shines at a distance like an emerald but with no agreeable or pleasing associations it is a spot which no solitary school boy will ever visit nor indeed would the unflinching believer in the popular nonsense of ghosts wish to pass it without a companion it is under any circumstances a gloomy and Barren place but when looked upon in connection with what we have

irritation he recited the Lord's Prayer backwards as an imprecation on his enemy before his death he will reveal the mystery of his power but not till the The Hand of Death is on him for certain when he does pral it we may be sure it will be to one person only his successor there are several such doctors in County sgo really well up in herbal medicine by all accounts and my friends find them in their own counties all these things go on merrily the spirit of the age laughs in vain and is itself only a rippled pass or already passing away the Spells Of The Witch are all together different they smell of the Grave one of the most powerful is the charm of the Dead hand with a hand cut from a corpse they muttering Words of Power will stir well and skim from its surface a neighbor's butter a candle held between the fingers of the Dead Hand can never be blown out this is useful to robbers but they appeal for the suffrage of the lovers likewise for they can make love potions by drying and grinding into powder the liver of a black cat mixed with tea and poured from a black tea pot it is infallible there are many stories of its success in quite recent years but unhappily the spell must be continually renewed or all the love may turn into hate but the central notion of Witchcraft everywhere is the power to change into some fictitious form usually in Ireland a hair or a cat long ago a wolf was the favorite before geraldus cinus came to Ireland a monk wandering in a forest at night Came Upon two wolves one of whom was dying the other entreated him to give the dying Wolf the last Sacrament he said the mass and paused when he came to the viaticum the other on seeing this tore the skin from the breast of the dying wolf laying the form of an old woman thereon the monk gave the sacrament years afterwards he confessed the matter and and when geraldis visited the country was being tried by the sinot of the Bishops to give the sacrament to an animal was a great sin was it a human being or an animal on the advice of geraldis they sent the monk with papers describing the matter to the pope for his decision the result is not stated geraldus himself was of opinion that the wolf form was an illusion for as he argued only God can change the form his opinion coincides with tradition Irish and otherwise it is the notion of many who have written about these things that magic is mly the making of such Illusions Patrick Kennedy tells a story of a girl who having in her hand a of grass containing unknown to herself a fourleaf shamrock watched a conjur at air now the fourleaf Shamrock guards its owner from all P's spells and when the others were staring at a carrying along the roof of a shed a huge beam in its Bill she asked them what they found to wonder at in a with a straw The Conjurer begged from her the S of grass to give to his horse he said immediately she cried out in Terror that the beam would fall and kill somebody this then is to be remembered the form of

Miss letia mlto not far from Rolan lived last spring a family called Hanlan and in a farmhouse some Fields distant people named doy both families had good cows but the handlon were fortunate in possessing a carry cow that gave more milk in yellower butter than the others Grace dogy a young girl who was more admired than loved in the neighborhood took much interest in the carry cow and appeared one night at Mrs hanin's door with a modest request will you let me milk your Moy cow and why would you wish to milk we moily Grace there inquired Mrs hland oh just because you're say throng at the present time thank you kindly Grace but I'm not too thr to do my own work I'll no trouble you to milk the girl turned away with a discontented air but the next evening and the next found her at the Cow house door with the same request at length Mrs Hanan not knowing well how to persist in her refusal yielded and permitted Grace to milk the carow she soon had reason to regret her want of firmness moyy gave no more milk to her owner when this meanly state of things lasted for 3 Days the handland applied to a certain Mark macaran who lived B on that cow has been milked by someone with an evil eye said he will she give you a weed drop do you think the full of a pint M would do oh I Mark I'll get that much milk for her anyway well Mrs unland lock the door and get nine new pins that was never used in cloth and put them into a saucepan with a pint of milk set them on the fire and let them come to the boil the nine pins soon begin to simmer in moily milk rapid steps were heard approaching the door agitated knocks followed and Grace doged his high tone voice was raced in eager intreaty let me in Mrs Handlin she cried take off that cruel pot take out them pens for they're breaking holes in my heart and I'll never offer to touch milk vs again there is Hardy a village in Ireland where the milk is not thus believed to have been stolen times upon times there are many counter charms sometimes the counter of a plow will be heated red hot and the witch will rush in crying out that she is burning a new horseshoe or donkey shoe heated and put under the churn with three stws if possible stolen at midnight from Over The Witcher store is quite infallible editor a queen's County witch it was about 80 years ago in the month of May that a r Roman Catholic clergyman near Rath Downey in the Queen's County was awakened at midnight to attend a dying man in a distant part of the parish the priest obeyed without a murmur and having performed his duty to the expiring sinner saw him depart his world before he left the cabin as it was yet dark the man who had Callen on the priest offered to accompany him home but he refused and set forward on his journey alone the gray Dawn began to appear over the hills the good priest was highly enraptured with the beauty of the scene and rode on now gazing intently at every surrounding object and again cutting with his whip at the bats and big beautiful night flies which flitted ever and Anon from hedge to hedge across his lonely way thus engaged he journeyed on slowly until the narrow approach of Sunrise began to render objects completely discernible when he dismounted from his horse and slipping his arm out of the rain and drawing forth his brary from from his pocket he commenced reading his morning office as he walked leisurely along he had not proceeded very far when he observed his horse a very spiritual animal endeavoring to stop on the road and gazing intently into a field on one side of the way where there were three or four cows gracing however he did not pay any particular attention to this circumstance but went on a little farther when the horse suddenly plunged with great violence and endeavored to break away by force the priest with great difficulty succeeded in restraining him and looking at him more closely observed him shaking from head to foot and sweating profusely he now stood calmly and refused to move from where he was nor could threats or in treaty induced him to proceed the father was greatly astonished but recollecting to have often heard of horses laboring under a fright being induced to go by blindfolding them he took out his handkerchief and tied it across his eyes he then mounted and striking him gently he went forward without reluctance but still sweating and trembling violently they had not gone far when they arrived opposite a narrow path or bridleway flanked at either side by a tall thick hedge which led from the high road to the field where the cows were grazing the priest happened by chance to look into the lane and saw a spectacle which made the blood curdle in his veins it was the legs of a man from the hips downwards without head or body trotting up the Avenue at a smart Pace the good father was very much alarmed but being a man of a strong nerve he resolved come what might to stand and be further acquainted with this singular Spectre he accordingly stood and so did the Headless Apparition as if afraid to approach him the priest observing this pulled back a little from the entrance of the Avenue and the Phantom again resumed its progress it soon arrived on the road and the priest now had sufficient opportunity to view it minutely it wore yellow bukin breaches tightly fasten at the knees with green ribbon it had neither shoes nor stockings on and its legs were covered with long red hairs and all full of a wet blood and Clay apparently contracted in its progress through the thorny Hedges the priest although very much alarmed felt eager to examine the Phantom and for this purpose summoned all his philosophy to enable him to speak to it the ghost was now a little ahead pursuing its March at its own brisky Trot and the priest urged on his horse speedily until he came up with it and thus addressed it hell our friend who art thou or whether are thou going so early the Hideous Spectre made no reply but uted the Fierce and superhuman growl or oomph a fine morning for a ghost to wander abroad again said the priest another oomph was the reply why don't you speak you don't seem disposed to be very laqua this morning again the good man began to feel irritated at the obstinate Silence of his unearthly visitor and said with some warmth in the name of all that sacred I command you to answer me who art thou or Where Art Thou traveling another oomph more loud and more Angry than before was the only reply perhaps said the father a taste of whip cord might Rend you a little more communicative and so saying he struck The Apparition a heavy blow with his whip on the breach the Phantom uttered a wild and unearthly yell and fell forward on the road and what was the priest's astonishment when he perceived the whole place running over with milk he was struck dumb with amazement the prostrate Phantom still continued to eject vast quantities of milk from every part the priest's head swam his eyes got DIY a super came all over him for some minutes and on his recovering the frightful Spectre had vanished and in its stad he found stretched on the road and half drowned in milk the form of Sarah Kennedy an old woman of the neighborhood who had been long notorious in that district for her Witchcraft and superstitious practices and it was now discovered that she had by infernal Aid assumed that monstrous shape and was employed that morning in sucking the cows of the village had a volcano burst forth at his feet he could not be more astonished he gazed a while in silent amazement the old woman groaning and writhing convulsively Sarah said he at length I have long admonished you to repent of your evil ways but you were deaf to my entreaties and now wretched woman you are surprised in the midst of your crimes oh Father father shouted the unfortunate woman can you do nothing to save me I am lost hell is open for for me allegion of devils surround me this moment waiting to carry my soul to ption the priest had not power to reply the old wretches pains increased her body swelled to an immense size her eyes flashed as if on fire her face was black as night her entire form red in a thousand different contortions her outcries were appalling her face sunk her eyes closed and in a few minutes she expired in the most equisite tortures the priest departed homewards and called at the next cabin to give notice of the strange circumstances the remains of Sara Kennedy were removed to her cabin situate at the edge of a small wood at a little distance she had long been a resident in that neighborhood but still she was a stranger and came there no one knew from whence she had no relation in that country but one daughter now advanced in years who resided with her she kept one cow but sold more butter it was said than any Farmer in the parish and it was generally suspected that she acquired it by devilish agency as she never made a secret of being intimately acquainted with sorcery and fism she professed a Roman Catholic religion but never complied with the practices enjoyed by that church and her remains were denied Christian sepulture and were buried in a sand pit near her own cabin on the evening of her burial The Villages assembled and burned her cabin to the Earth her daughter made her Escape and never after returned end of section 22

Function (mathematics) | Wikipedia audio article
in mathematics a function was originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity for example the position of a planet is a function of time historically the concept was elaborated with the infinitesimal calculus at the end of the 17th century and until the 19th century the functions that were considered were differentiable that is they had a high degree of regularity the concept of function was formalized at the end of the 19th century in terms of set theory and this greatly enlarged the domains of application of the concept a function is a process or a relation that Associates each element X of a set X the domain of the function to a single element Y of another set Y possibly the same set the codomain of the function if the function is called F this relation is denoted y equals F X read f of X the element X is the argument or input of the function and Y is the value of the function the output or the image of X by F the symbol that is used for representing the input is the variable of the function one often says that F is a function of the variable X a function is uniquely represented by its graph which is the set of all pairs X F X when the domain and the codomain are sets of numbers each such pair may be considered as the Cartesian coordinates of a point in the plane in general these points form a curve which is also called the graph of the function this is a useful representation of the function which is commonly used everywhere for example graphs of functions are commonly used in newspapers for representing the evolution of price indexes and stock market indexes functions are widely used in science and in most fields of mathematics their role is so important that it has been said that they are the central objects of investigation in most fields of mathematics topic definition intuitively a function is a process that Associates to each element of a set X a unique element of a set Y formally a function f from a set X to a set Y is defined by a set G of ordered pairs X Y such that X element of X Y element of Y and every element of X is the first component of exactly one ordered pair in G in other words for every X in X there is exactly one element Y such that the ordered pair X Y belongs to the set of pairs defining the function f the set G is called the graph of the function formally speaking it may be identified with the function but this hides the usual interpretation of a function as a process therefore in common usage the function is generally distinguished from its graph functions are also called Maps or mappings however some authors reserve the word mapping to the case where the codomain y belongs explicitly to the definition of the function in this sense the graph of the mapping recovers the function as the set of pairs in the definition of function x and y respectively called the domain and the co domain of the function f if X Y belongs to the set defining F then Y is the image of X under F or the value of F applied to the argument X especially in the context of numbers one says also that Y is the value of F for the value X of its variable or still shorter Y is the value of f of X denoted as y equals F X the domain and codomain are not always explicitly given when a function is defined and without some possibly difficult computation one knows only that the domain is contained in a larger set typically this occurs in mathematical analysis where a function from X to Y often refers to a function that may have a proper subset of X's domain for example function from the rails to the rails may refer to a real-valued function of a real variable and this phrase does not mean that the domain of the function is the whole set of the real numbers but only that the domain is a set of real numbers that contains a non-empty open interval for example if F is a function that has the real numbers as domain and codomain then a function mapping the value X to the value G X equals one F X display style G X equals t frac 1 FX is a function G from the rails to the rails whose domain is the set of the rails X such that FX does not equal 0 in many cases the exact domains are difficult to determine but this is rarely a problem for working with such functions the range of a function is the set of the images of all elements in the domain however range is sometimes used as a synonym of Co domain generally in old textbooks topic relational approach any subset of the Cartesian product of a domain X display style X and the codomain why display style why is said to define a binary relation ah x times y display style our subset ik x times y between these two sets it is immediate that an arbitrary relation may contain pairs that violate the necessary conditions for a function given above au navale intraluminal why element of our x/z element of our y equals Z display style X Y in our land X Z in our quad right arrow quad y equals Z univeral ations may be identified two functions whose domain is a subset of X a left total relation is a relation such that X element of x/y element of Y X Y element of our display style for elects in X exists Y in y : X Y in our formal functions may be strictly identified two relations that are both Univ eylandt and left total violating the left totality is similar to giving a convenient encompassing set instead of the true domain as explained above various properties of functions and function composition may be reformulated in the language of relations for example a function is injective if the converse relation ah tea y times X display style our carat text T sub set X Y times X is Univ eylandt where the converse relation is defined as our t equals why X X Y element of our display style our carrot text T equals y X sadface X Y in our topic notation there are various standard ways for denoting functions the most commonly used notation is functional notation which defines the function using an equation that gives the names of the function and the argument explicitly this gives rise to a subtle point often glossed over in elementary treatments of functions functions are distinct from their values thus a function f should be distinguished from its value F x0 at the value x0 in its domain to some extent even working mathematicians will conflate the two in informal settings for convenience and to avoid the use of pedantic language however strictly speaking it is an abuse of notation to write let F ah our display style F : math br-2 math BR B the function FX equals x2 since their X and x-2 should both be understood as the value of F at X rather than the function itself instead it is correct though pedantic to write let f ah ah displaced I'll f : math BR - math be R be the function defined by the equation FX equals x2 valid for all real values of X this distinction in language and notation becomes important in cases where functions themselves serve as inputs for other functions a function taking another function as an input is termed a functional other approaches to denoting functions detailed below avoid this problem but are less commonly used topic functional notation as first used by Leonid Euler in 1734 functions are denoted by a symbol consisting generally of a single letter in italic font most often the lowercase letters F G H some widely used functions are represented by a symbol consisting of several letters usually two or three generally an abbreviation of their name by convention in this case a Roman type is used such as sin for the sine function in contrast to italic font for single letter symbols the notation read y equals f of X Y equals f-x display style y equals FX means that the pair X Y belongs to the set of pairs defining the function f if X is the domain of F the set of pairs defining the function is thus using set-builder notation X f X X element of X display style X FX X in X often a definition of the function is given by what F does to the explicit argument X for example a function f can be defined by the equation F x equals sin x 2 plus 1 display style f x equals sinh X Charat 2 plus 1 for all real numbers X in this example f can be thought of as the composite of several simpler functions squaring adding 1 and taking the sign however only the sine function has a common explicit symbol sin while the combination of squaring and then adding 1 is described by the polynomial expression x2 plus one display style X Charat 2 +1 order to explicitly reference functions such as squaring or adding one without introducing new function names eg by defining function G and H by G X equals x2 display style G x equals x carrot 2 and H X equals x plus 1 display style H X equals x plus 1 one of the methods below arrow notation or dot notation could be used sometimes the parentheses of functional notation are emitted when the symbol denoting the function consists of several characters and no ambiguity may arise for example sin X display style Synnex can be written instead of sin X display style sin x topic arrow notation for explicitly expressing domain X and the codomain y of a function f the arrow notation is often used read the function f from X to Y or the function f mapping elements of X to elements of Y F X why display style F : x - y Oh X F why display style X tilde stack rule f 2 tilde Y this is often used in relation with the arrow notation for elements read F maps X 2 FX often stacked immediately below the arrow notation giving the function symbol domain and codomain X f X display style X maps tow FX for example if a multiplication is defined on a set X then the square function sqr display style operator name sqr on X is unambiguously defined by red the function sqr display style operator name sqr from X to X that map's X to X X sqr xxxxX display style begin aligned operator named s QR : X into X X and maps to X CDO TX and aligned the latter line being more commonly written xx to display style X Maps dou X Charat too often the expression giving the function symbol domain and codomain is emitted thus the arrow notation is useful for avoiding introducing a symbol for a function that is defined as it is often the case by a formula expressing the value of the function in terms of its argument as a common application of the arrow notation suppose F X times X Y X T F X T display style f : x times X to Y X T maps tow FX t is a two argument function and we want to refer to a partially applied function X Y display style x2 y produced by fixing the second argument to the value T zero without introducing a new function name the mapping question could be denoted X f xt0 display style X maps dou F X T underscore 0 using the arrow notation for elements note that the expression X f xt0 display style X maps dou F X T underscore zero read the map taking x2 f xt0 display style FX t underscore zero represents this new function with just one argument whereas the expression f X 0 t0 display style F X underscore 0 T underscore 0 refers to the value of the function f at the point X 0 t0 display style X underscore 0 t underscore 0 topic index notation index notation is often used instead of functional notation that is instead of writing FX one write F X display style F underscore X this is typically the case for functions whose domain is the set of the natural numbers such a function is called a sequence and in this case the element F ehn display style f underscore n is called the nth element of sequence the index notation is also often used for distinguishing some variables called parameters from their true variables in fact parameters are specific variables that are considered as being fixed during the study of a problem for example the map X F X T display style X maps to F X T C above would be denoted f-t display style f underscore t using index notation if we define the collection of maps F T display style F underscore T by the formula f t X equals F X T display style F underscore t X equals F X T for all x:t element of X display style X T in X topic dot notation in the notation X F X display style X maps tow F X the symbol X does not represent any value it is simply a placeholder meaning that if X is replaced by any value on the left of the arrow it should be replaced by the same value on the right of the arrow therefore X may be replaced by any symbol often an inter punked this may be useful for distinguishing the function f from its value FX at X for example to display style at sea do tea carrot too may stand for the function X a X to display style X maps tow ax carrot to and f you d you display style text style int underscore a caret C do TF you do may stand for a function defined by an integral with variable upper bound X a X F you D you display style textile X maps tow-in to underscore a carrot XF you do topic specialized notations there are other specialized notations for functions in sub disciplines of mathematics for example in linear algebra and functional analysis linear forms and the vectors they act upon are denoted using a dual pair to show the underlying duality this is similar to the use of bra ket notation in quantum mechanics in logic and the theory of computation the function notation of lambda calculus is used to explicitly Express the basic notions of function abstraction and application in category theory and homological algebra networks of functions are described in terms of how they in the compositions commute with each other using commutative diagrams that extend and generalize the arrow notation for functions described above topic specifying a function according to the definition a function is defined by associating each element of its domain with a corresponding element of its codomain when the domain and the co domain are sets of numbers this association may take the form of a computation taking as input any element of the domain and producing an output in the co domain this computation may be described by a formula this is the starting point of algebra where many similar numerical computations can be replaced by a single formula that describes these computations by means of variables that represent computation inputs as unspecified numbers this type of specification of a function frequently uses previously defined auxilary functions for example the function f from the rails to the rails defined by the formula f x equals one plus x2 displaced I'll f X equals s qrt 1 plus X Charat 2 employs as auxilary functions the square function mapping all the rails to the non-negative rails the square root function mapping the non-negative rails to the non-negative rails and the addition of real numbers the whole set of real numbers may be taken as the domain of f even though the domain of the square root function is restricted to the non-negative real numbers the image of f consists of the rails that are not less than 1 a computation that defines a function may often be described by an algorithm and any kind of algorithm may be used sometimes the definition of a function may involve elements or properties that can be defined but not computed for example if one considers the set P display style math Cal P of the programs in a given programming language that take an integer as input the terminating function is the function that returns 1 if a program of P display style math Cal P runs forever when executed on a given integer input and returns 0 otherwise it is a basic theorem of computability theory that there does not exist an algorithm for computing this function more generally computability theory is the study of computable functions that is the functions that can be computed by an algorithm the above ways of defining functions define them point wise that is each value is defined independently of the other values this is not necessarily the case when the domain of a function is the set of non-negative integers or more generally when the domain is a well ordered set a function maybe defined by induction or recursion meaning roughly that the calculation of the value of the function for some given input requires values of the function for lesser inputs for example the Fibonacci sequence is a function from the natural numbers into themselves that is defined by two starting values and a formula recurring to the two immediately preceding arguments see above for the use of indices for the argument of a function f 0 equals zero f 1 equals 1 and f n equals f n minus 1 plus f n minus 2 for N greater than one display style F underscore zero equals zero chord F underscore one equals one quad text and chord F underscore n equals F underscore n one plus f underscore n 2 quad text for n greater than one in calculus the usual functions considered have extensive regularities that is the value of the function at a point is related to the values of the function at neighboring points this allows defining them by functional equations for example the gamma function is the unique meromorphic function such that gamma one equals one display style gamma 1 equals 1 and gamma Z plus one equals Z gamma Z display style gamma Z plus 1 equals said gamma Z for any complex said that is not a non positive integer by differential equations for example the natural logarithm is the solution of the differential equation d lane x-d x equals 1x display style track D Lane X DX equals track 1 X such that lane 1 equals 0 by integral equations or by analytic continuation equals topic representing a function equals a graph is commonly used to give an intuitive picture of a function as an example of how a graph helps understand the function it is easy to see from its graph whether a function is increasing or decreasing some functions may also be represented by bar charts equals topic graphs and plots equals given a function f X Y display style F : x 2y it's graph is formally the set G equals X F X X element of X display style G equals x f X X in X in the frequent case where X and y are subsets of the real numbers or may be identified with such subsets eg intervals an element X why element of G display style X Y in G maybe identified with a point having coordinates X Y in a two dimensional coordinate system eg the Cartesian plane parts of this may create a plot that represents parts of the function the use of plots is so ubiquitous that they too are called the graph of the function graphic representations of functions are also possible in other coordinate systems for example the graph of the square function X x2 display style X maps tow X Charat 2 consisting of all points with coordinates X x2 display style X X Charat 2 for X element of our display style X in math be our yields when depicted in Cartesian coordinates the well-known parabola if the same quadratic function X x2 display style X maps tow X Charat 2 with the same formal graph consisting of pairs of numbers is plotted instead in polar coordinates our theta equals xx2 display style our theta equals x X Charat to the plot obtained is Fermat spiral topic tables a function can be represented as a table of values if the domain of a function is finite then the function can be completely specified in this way for example the multiplication function f one five two our display style F : one L dots five carat to two math B are defined as f X y equals x why display style FX y equals x y can be represented by the familiar multiplication table on the other hand if a functions domain is continuous a table can give the values of the function at specific values of the domain if an intermediate value is needed interpolation can be used to estimate the value of the function for example a portion of a table for the sine function might be given as follows with values rounded to six decimal places before the advent of handheld calculators and personal computers such tables were often compiled and published for functions such as logarithms and trigonometric functions topic bar chart bar charts are often used for representing functions whose domain is a finite set the natural numbers or the integers in this case an element X of the domain is represented by an interval of the x-axis and the corresponding value of the function FX is represented by a rectangle whose base is the interval corresponding to X and whose height is f x possibly negative in which case the bar extends below the x-axis topic general properties this section describes general properties of functions that are independent of specific properties of the domain and the codomain topic canonical functions some functions are uniquely defined by the domain and codomain and are sometimes called canonical for every set X there is a unique function called the empty function from the empty set to X this function is not interesting by itself but useful for simplifying statements similarly as the empty sum equal to zero and the empty product equal to one for every set X and every single tuned set s there is a unique function called the canonical surjection from X to s which maps to s every element of X this is a surjection see below except if X is the empty set given a function f x/y displaced I'll f : x2y the canonical surjection of F onto its image F X equals F X X element of X display style F X equals F X mid X in X is the function from X to F X that map's X to F X for every subset X of a set Y the canonical injection of X into y is the injective see below function that map's every element of X to itself the identity function of X often denoted by it X display style opera tour name it underscore X is the canonical injection of X into itself topic equality of functions two functions F and G are equal if their domain sets are the same and their output values agree on the whole domain formally F equals G if and only if they have the same domain X and for all X element of X the Equality f x equals G X is satisfied when functions are viewed as maps this is when the study requires distinguishing the co domain then for the Equality of functions it is required in addition the equality of their Co domains for example the functions f G are our display style FG math br-2 math be our and H R minus 1 1 display style H math B R 2 minus 1 1 define this f x equals sin 2x display style FX equals sin carat 2x G X equals 1 minus cos 2x display style G x equals 1 cos carrot 2 X and H X equals sin 2x display style H X equals sin carat 2 X respectively satisfy that F equals G equals H display style F equals G equals H however when viewed as Maps then F equals G display style F equals G but H display style H is considered a different function topic function composition given two functions F X Y display style F : x 2y and G Y Z display style G : y - Z such that the domain of G is the co domain of F the composition is the function G f x/z display style gee sir keV : X right arrow Z defined by G f x equals G F X display style G sir keV X equals G FX that is the value of G f display style G circ F is obtained by first applying F 2x to obtain y equals FX and then applying G to the result Y to obtain G y equals G FX in the notation the function that is applied first is always written on the right the composition gee F display style G Cirque F is an operation on functions that is defined only if the codomain of the first function is the domain of the second one even when both G F display style G search F and F G displaced I left sir G satisfy these conditions the composition is not necessarily commutative that is the functions G F display style G sir keV and F G displaced I left sir G need not be equal but may deliver different values for the same argument for example let FX topic x2 + GX X plus 1 then G f x equals x2 plus one display style G FX equals x carrot 2 plus 1 and f G x equals x plus 1 to display style FG x equals x plus 1 carat to agree just for x equals zero display style x equals zero the function composition is associative in the sense that if one of h g f display style h search g cirque f and H g.f display style H circ G search F is defined then the other is also defined and they are equal thus one writes H G F equals h g f equals h g f display style H Sergey Cirque F equals H search G Cirque Fe equals H Cirque G Cirque F the identity functions it X display style operate or name it underscore X and it why display style operate or name it underscore why a respectively a right identity in a left identity for functions from X to Y that is if F is a function with domain x and codomain y 1 has f it X equals it why F equals F displaced I left Cirque opera tour name it underscore X equals operator name it underscore Y sir keV equals F topic image and pre image let F X Y display style F : x 2y the image by F of an element X of the domain X is FX if a is any subset of X then the image of a by F denoted F a is the subset of the codomain y consisting of all images of elements of a that is f a equals F X X element of display style FA equals FX mid ex in a the image of F is the image of the whole domain that is FX it is also called the range of F although the term may also refer to the codomain on the other hand the inverse image or pre image by F of a subset B of the codomain y is the subset of the domain X consisting of all elements of X whose images belong to B it is denoted by F - 1b display style F carrot - 1 B that is f - one B equals X element of X F X element of B display style F carrot - 1 B equals x in x mid FX in B for example the preimage of 4/9 under the square function is the set - 3 - 2 - 3 by definition of a function the image of an element X of the domain is always a single element of the codomain however the pre image of a single element y denoted F - 1x display style F carat minus 1x may be empty or contain any number of elements for example if F is the function from the integers to themselves that map every integer to 0 then F minus 1 0 equals Z if F x/y display style F : X to Y is a function a and B of subsets of X and C and D are subsets of Y then one has the following properties B F a F B display style a subset xB long right arrow F a subset hf b c d f - one C F - 1d display style C sub Sutekh D long right arrow F carrot - 1 C subset HF carrot - 1 D a F - 1f a display style a subset Akef carrot - 1 f a see F F - 1c display style C sub Sutekh F F carrot - 1 C f - one F a equals F a display style F F carrot - 1 F a equals F a F - one F F minus 1 C equals F minus 1 C display style F carrot - 1 F F carrot - 1 C equals F carrot - 1 C the pre image by F of an element Y of the codomain is sometimes called in some contexts the fiber of Y under F if a function f has an inverse see below this inverse is denoted F - one display style F carrot - one in this case f - 1c display style F carrot - 1 C may denote either the image by f - one display style F carrot - 1 or the preimage by f of C this is not a problem as these sets are equal the notation F a display style f/a and F minus 1 see display style F carrot - 1 C maybe ambiguous in the case of sets that contains some subsets as elements such as X X display style xx in this case some care may be needed for example by using square brackets F a F minus 1 C display style F a F carats minus 1 C for images and pre images of subsets and ordinary parentheses for images and pre images of elements topic injective surjective and by jected functions let F X y displaced I'll f : X to Y be a function the function f is injective or one-to-one or is an injection if f a does not equal F B for any two different elements or and B of X equivalently f is injective if for any y element of why display style why in why the pre-image f - one why display style F carrot - 1 why contains at most one element an empty function is always injective if X is not the empty set and if as usual the axiom of choice is assumed then f is injective if and only if there exists a function G why X display style G : y 2x such that G F equals it X display style G Cirque F equals operator name it underscore X that is if f has a left inverse the axiom of choice is needed because if f is injective one defines G by G why equals X display style G y equals x if y equals F X display style y equals FX and by gee y equals x zero display style G y equals x underscore zero if why f-x display style why not in FX where X zero display style X underscore zero is an arbitrarily chosen element of X the function f is surjective or onto or is a surjection if the range equals the codomain that is if FX equals y in other words the pre image F - one why display style F carrot - 1 why of every why element of why display style why in why is non-empty if as usual the axiom of choice is assumed then f is surjective if and only if there exists a function G why X display style G : white two x such that f G equals it y displaced I left search G equals opera tour name it underscore Y that is if F has a right inverse the axiom of choice is needed because if f is injective one defines G by G why equals X display style G y equals x where X display style X is an arbitrarily chosen element of f - one why display style F carrot -1 Y the function f is bijective or is by jek Shanor a one-to-one correspondence if it is both injective and surjective that is f is bijective if for any why element of why display style why in why the pre-image f - one why display style F carrot - 1 y contains exactly one element the function f is bijective if and only if it admits an inverse function that is a function G y X display style G : y - x such that G F equals it X display style G sir care fee calls operate or name it underscore X and F G equals it why displaced I left search G equals operator name it underscore why contrarily to the case of injections and surjections this does not require the axiom of choice every function f x/y display style f : x - y may be factorized as the composition is of a surjection followed by an injection where s is the canonical surjection of X onto FX and I is the canonical injection of FX into y this is the canonical factorization of F 1 to 1 and 'enter a terms that were more common in the older English language literature injective surjective and by ejected were originally coined as French words in the second quarter of the 20th century by the Bourbaki group and imported into English as a word of caution a one-to-one function is one that is injective while a one-to-one correspondence refers to a by ejected function also the statement F Maps X onto y differs from F map's X into B in that the former implies that f is surjective while the latter makes no assertion about the nature of F the mapping in a complicated reasoning the one letter difference can easily be missed due to the confusing nature of this older terminology these terms have declined in popularity relative to the Borba kin terms which have also the advantage to be more symmetrical topic restriction and extension if F X Y display style F : X to Y is a function and s is a subset of X then the restriction of f to s denoted FS is the function from s to Y that is defined by F s X equals F X for all X element of s display style F underscore s X equals F X chord text for all X in s this often used for defying partial inverse functions if there is a subset s of a function f such that FS is injective then the canonical surjection of F s on its image F sulphur mono sulfide equals F s is a bijection which has an inverse function from f s to s this is in this way that inverse trigonometric functions are defined the cosine function for example is injective when restricted to the interval minus 0 pi the image of this restriction is the interval minus 1 1 this defines thus an inverse function from minus 1 1 2 minus 0 pi which is called R cosine and denoted R cos function restriction may also be used for gluing functions together let X equals AI element of I you I display style text style x equals big cup underscore I in I you underscore I be the decomposition of X as a union of subsets suppose that a function f i you i why display style f underscore i : you underscore I to Y is defined on each you I display style you underscore I such that for each pair of indices the restrictions of f I display style F underscore I and F J display style f underscore j to you i you J display style you underscore I cap Q underscore J are equal then this defines a unique function f x/y display style f : x - y such that f you i equals f i display style f underscore u underscore i equals f underscore i for every i this is generally in this way that functions on manifolds are defined an extension of a function f is a function G such that f is a restriction of G a typical use of this concept is the process of analytic continuation that allows extending functions whose domain is a small part of the complex plane two functions whose domain is almost the whole complex plane here is another classical example of a function extension that is encountered when studying holography of the real line and homography is a function H x equals a X plus B see X plus D display style H x equals frac ax plus B CX Plus D such that ad BC does not equal zero its domain is the set of all real numbers different from - d.c display style d.c it's image is the set of all real numbers different from a/c display style 8c if one extends the reel line to the projective lis extended real line by adding infinity to the real numbers one may extend h4 being a bisection of the extended real line to itself by setting H infinity equals a see display style H of T equals a see and H - D C equals infinity display style HD C equals empty topic multivariate function a multivariate function or function of several variables is a function that depends on several arguments such functions are commonly encountered for example the position of a car on a road is a function of the time and its speed more formally a function of n variables is a function whose domain is a set of n tuples for example multiplication of integers is a function of two variables or bivariate function whose domain is the set of all pairs two tuples of integers and whose Co domain is the set of integers the same is true for every binary operation more generally every mathematical operation is defined as a multivariate function the Cartesian product X one x times X n display style X underscore 1 times C do TS x X underscore n ave n set X 1 X n display style X underscore 1 L dots X underscore n is the set of all n-tuples X 1 X n display style X underscore 1 l BOTS X underscore n such that X I element of X I display style X underscore I in X underscore I for every eye with one i n display style one le qi l eq n therefore a function of n variables is a function f you why displaced I'll f : you two why we're the domain you has the form you x one x times X n display style you subset X X underscore 1 times C do TS x X underscore n when using function notation one usually omits the parentheses surrounding tuples writing f X 1x2 display style F X underscore 1 X underscore 2 instead of F x1 x2 display style F X underscore one X underscore two in the case where all the ex I display style X underscore I equal to the set our display style math be our of real numbers one has a function of several real variables if the X I display style X underscore I equal to the set C display style math b/c of complex numbers one has a function of several complex variables it is common to also consider functions whose codomain is a product of sets for example Euclidean division maps every pair a B of integers with B does not equal zero to a pair of integers called the quotient and the remainder Euclidean division z times z 0 z times z a be quotient a B remainder a B display style begin aligned text Euclidean division : quad math be Z times mass be Zed set - 0 and 2 math be Z times mass be Zed a B and maps to' operat or name quotient a be operat or name remainder a be end aligned the codomain may also be a vector space in this case one talks of a vector valued function if the domain is contained in a Euclidean space or more generally a manifold a vector valued function is often called a vector field topic in calculus the idea of function starting in the 17th century was fundamental to the new infinitesimal calculus see history of the function concept at that time only real valued functions of a real variable were considered and all functions were assumed to be smooth but the definition was soon extended to functions of several variables into function of a complex variable in the second half of 19th century the mathematically rigorous definition of a function was introduced and functions with arbitrary domains and Co domains were defined functions are now used throughout all areas of mathematics in introductory calculus when the word function is used without qualification it means a real valued function of a single real variable the more general definition of a function is usually introduced to second or third year college students with stem majors and in the senior year they are introduced to calculus in a larger more rigorous setting in courses such as real analysis and complex analysis topic real function a real function is a real valued function of a real variable that is a function whose co domain is the field of real numbers and whose domain is a set of real numbers that contains an interval in this section these functions are simply called functions the functions that are most commonly considered in mathematics and it's applications have some regularity that is they are continuous differentiable and even analytic this regularity ensures that these functions can be visualized by the graphs in this section all functions are differentiable in some interval functions enjoy point-wise operations that is if F and G are functions the sum difference and product two functions defined by F plus G x equals FX plus GX f minus G X equals F X minus G X F x equals FX g x display style begin aligned f plus g x and equals FX plus g x FG x and equals FX g x FC do TG x and equals FX c do TG x end aligned the domains of the resulting functions of the intersection of the domains of F and G the quotient of two functions is defined similarly by F G X equals F X G X display style frak FG x equals frac FX G X but the domain of the resulting function is obtained by removing the zeros of G from the intersection of the domains of F and G the polynomial functions are defined by polynomials and the domain is the whole set of real numbers they include constant functions linear functions and quadratic functions rational functions are quotients of two polynomial functions and the domain is the real numbers with a finite number of them removed to avoid division by zero the simplest rational function is the function X one X display style X maps dope frac 1x whose graph is an hyperbola and whose domain is the whole real line except for zero the derivative of a real differentiable function is a real function an antiderivative of a continuous real function is a real function that is differentiable in any open interval in which the original function is continuous for example the function X 1x display style xMAP stoke frak 1x is continuous and even differentiable on the positive real numbers thus one antiderivative which takes the value 0 for x equals 1 is a differentiable function called the natural logarithm a real function f is monotonic in an interval if the sign of F X - f why x- why display style frak F X F Y X Y does not depend of the choice of x and y in the interval if the function is differentiable in the interval it is monotonic if the sign of the derivative is constant in the interval if a real function f is monotonic in an interval I it has an inverse function which is a real function with domain F I and image I this is how inverse trigonometric functions are defined in terms of trigonometric functions where the trigonometric functions are monotonic another example the natural logarithm is monotonic on the positive real numbers and it's image is the whole real line therefore it has an inverse function that is a bijection between the real numbers and the positive real numbers this inverse is the exponential function many other real functions are defined either by the implicit function theorem the inverse function is a particular instance or as solutions of differential equations for example the sine and the cosine functions of the solutions of the linear differential equation y+ why equals zero display style y plus y equals zero such that sin zero equals 0 cos 0 equals 1 sin x x 0 equals 1 cos x x 0 equals 0 display style sin 0 equals 0 quad-core zero equals one quad frack partial sin x partial x 0 equals 1 quad frack partial cos x partial x 0 equals 0 topic complex function when working with complex numbers different types of functions are used complex valued functions functions that return complex values F x-c display style f : x2 math bc4 X display style X an arbitrary set or perhaps a subset of the real numbers or a function for which both domain and range of subsets of the complex numbers f see see display style F : math beat c2 math b/c complex variable functions that return say real numbers or other values F C X display style F : math beat c2 X the study of complex functions is a vast subject in mathematics with many applications and that can claim to be an ancestor to many other areas of mathematics like homo topi theory and manifolds topic function of several real or complex variables functions of several real or complex variables are functions which domain consists of tuples of real or complex numbers this is the domain is a subset of ah n display style math be our carrot n or C n display style math b/c carrot n for example the division operation is a function that inputs a pair of real or complex numbers one to be the dividend and the other the divisor and returns the quotient a B a B display style a B maps to a B in the case of functions of several variables the functional notation can be used in two ways the symbol F X display style FX could denote a function of several variables if X display style X is assumed to be denoting tuples of real or complex numbers X equals X one X 2 X n display style X equals X underscore 1 X underscore 2 L dots X underscore n alternatively the components of the tupple can be made explicit in the notation when this is written as f X 1 X 2 X n display style F X underscore 1 X underscore 2 L dots X underscore n the repeated parentheses f X 1 X 2 X n display style F X underscore 1 X underscore 2 L dots X underscore n that would result from syntactically replacing X display style X by X 1 X 2 X n display style X underscore 1 X underscore 2 L dots X underscore n in the symbol F X display style FX a generally avoided in mathematics topic vector-valued function when the elements of the codomain of a function of vectors the function is said to be a vector valued function these functions are particularly useful in applications for example modeling physical properties the function that associate stewey CH of a fluid its velocity vector is a vector valued function some vector valued function are defined on a subset of our n display style math be our carrot n or other spaces that share geometric or topological properties similar to Oh ehn display style math be our carrot n light manifolds these vector-valued functions are given the name vector fields topic function space in mathematical analysis and more specifically in functional analysis a function space is a set of scalar valued or vector valued functions which share a specific property and form a topological vector space for example the real smooth functions with a compact support that is they are zero outside some compact set form a function space that is at the basis of the theory of distributions function spaces play a fundamental role in advanced mathematical analysis by allowing the use of their algebraic and topological properties for studying properties of functions for example all theorems of existence and uniqueness of solutions of ordinary or partial differential equations result of the study of function spaces topic generalizations topic natural extension it is rather frequent that a function with domain X may be naturally extended to a function whose domain is a set Z that is built from X for example for any set X its power set px is the set of all subsets of X any function f XY display style F : X 2y may be extended to a function on power sets by P X P Y s FS display style begin aligned and math kal px - math kal P Y and s maps tow FS end aligned where FS is the image by f of the subset s of X according to the definition of function f maps each element from its domain X to some element of its codomain y it is often convenient to extend this meaning to apply to arbitrary subsets of the domain which are as immediately can be checked map to subsets of the codomain thus considering a function f tilde display style tilde f mapping its domain the power set P X of FS domain X to its codomain a subset of the power set P Y of FS codomain y P x-p why s F s display style begin aligned math Cal px2 math Cal P Y s maps tow FS end aligned under slight abuse of notation this function on subsets is often denoted also by F another example is the following if the function f RS displaced I'll f : r2s is a ring homomorphism it may be extended to a function on polynomial rings are XS x i equals 0 and a IX I I equals 0 NF AI X I display style begin aligned our x + 2 s X sum underscore I equals 0 carat n a underscore i X Charat I and maps tow sum underscore I equals 0 carat NF a underscore IX carat I end aligned which is also a ring homomorphism topic multivalued functions several methods for specifying functions of real or complex variables start from a local definition of the function at a point or on a neighborhood of a point and then extend by continuity the function to a much larger domain frequently for a starting point x0 display style X underscore 0 there are several possible starting values for the function for example in defining the square root is the inverse function of the square function for any positive real number x0 display style X underscore 0 there are two choices for the value of the square root one of which is positive and denoted x0 display style sq r-tx underscore zero and another which is negative and denoted - x0 display style sq r-tx underscore 0 these choices define two continuous functions both having the non-negative real numbers as a domain and having either the non negative or the non positive real numbers as images when looking at the graphs of these functions one can see that together they form a single smooth curve it is therefore often useful to consider these two square root functions as a single function that has two values for positive x one value for zero and no value for negative x in the preceding example one choice the positive square root is more natural than the other this is not the case in general for example let consider the implicit function that map's Y to a root X of x3 minus 3x minus y equals 0 display style X carrot 3 minus 3x y equals 0 see the figure on the right for y equals 0 one may choose either 0 3 or minus 3 display style 0 SQ rt3 text or sqr t 3 / x by the implicit function theorem each choice defines a function for the first one that maximal domain is the interval minus 2 2 and the image is minus 1 1 for the second one the domain is minus 2 infinity and the image is 1 infinity for the last one the domain is infinity 2 and the image is infinity minus 1 as the three graphs together form a smooth curve and there is no reason for preferring one choice these three functions are often considered as a single multi valued function of y that has three values for -2 usefulness of the concept of multi valued functions is clearer when considering complex functions typically analytic functions the domain to which a complex function may be extended by analyst continuation generally consists of almost the whole complex plane however when extending the domain through two different paths one often gets different values for example when extending the domain of the square root function along a path of complex numbers with positive imaginary parts one gets I for the square root of minus one while when extending through complex numbers with negative imaginary parts one gets I there are generally two ways of solving the problem one may define a function that is not continuous along some curve called a branch cut such a function is called the principal value of the function the other way is to consider that one has a multivalued function which is analytic everywhere except for isolated singularities but whose value may jump if one follows a closed loop around the singularity this jump is called the monodromy topic in foundations of mathematics and set theory the definition of a function that is given in this article requires the concept of set since the domain and the co domain of a function must be a set this is not a problem in usual mathematics as it is generally not difficult to consider only functions whose domain and codomain are sets which are well defined even if the domain is not explicitly defined however it is sometimes useful to consider more general functions for example the singleton set may be considered as a function X X display style X maps dou X its domain would include all sets and therefore would not be a set in usual mathematics one avoids this kind of problem by specifying a domain which means that one has many singleton functions however when establishing foundations of mathematics one may have to use functions whose domain Co domain or both are not specified and some authors often logicians give precise definition for these weakly specified functions these generalized functions may be critical in the development of a formalization of foundations of mathematics for example the von Neumann Bernays gödel set theory is an extension of the set theory in which the collection of all sets is a class this theory includes the replacement axiom which may be interpreted as if X is a set and F is a function then FX is a set topic in computer science in computer science functions are callable units of code for example the Code defines square underscore function X returned X asterisk X can be called by the expression square underscore function X where X can be replaced for example by numeric literals is in square underscore function 2 or identify as of other valid input the calling of the unit of code consists in the expression square underscore function X being replaced by the execution of the code inside the functions definition in the example it would be replaced by executing the evaluation of the expression x asterisk X this expression in turn could be indicating to compute the multiplication of X by itself in the case of x representing a numeric value the evaluation would then compute the square of X the result of this evaluation is called the return value of the function as in the example some functions in computer science behave like mathematical functions the computer science function of the example would normally behave for numerical inputs like the mathematical function f X equals x2 display style f x equals x carrot 2 on the other hand not all functions in computer science behave like mathematical functions functions in computer science could not have a return value the return value could not be unique for a given input as they are required to be for mathematical functions this is due to the execution of the unit of code depending also on the state of the computing machine at the time in which the call is executed topic lambda calculus relevant to computer science and logic is lambda calculus which is a formal system based on the abstraction of function application it is constructed using only variables anonymous functions functions without name like in the arrow notation X X display style X maps dou X which in addition have only one input in this system are lambda lambda display style lambda dot notation is used instead giving it its name for example X X display style X maps tow X would be denoted by lambda x.x display style lambda X X instead elements of this formal system are called lambda terms which can be manipulated with a set of transformation rules the transformation rules are analogous to evaluating an anonymous function replacing a free variable by some other element of the formal system and creating new anonymous functions out of other elements of the system by joining them with the lambda display style lambda and dot notation the system is expressive enough to allow modeling any Turing machine topic see also

John Radsan - Religious Extremists and Terrorism: How Should We Respond?
good evening and welcome to the westminster town hall forum my name is tim hart anderson i'm the senior minister here at westminster presbyterian church and moderator of our forum with afsheen john rodson many of you know our original speaker tonight sam harris chose to cancel his appearance here at the tunnel forum just about 10 days ago it was a surprise to us he told us that he had received so many threats against his life that he was concerned about appearing here in the twin cities as you know he's a well-known author as an atheist has skewered every religion including the one i adhere to and and uh it was going to be interesting to have him in our pulpit uh but he was going to speak on spirituality and religion and uh actually his new book is a guide to being spiritual without being religious or something like that so i was going to ask him if he actually finally got religion but uh i don't have the chance to do that because of his sense that he was under threat and didn't want to appear and it was his decision we don't have any basis for understanding whether those threats are real or not in fact we'll discuss them maybe tonight but our first inclination frankly was to just kind of close down the forum and not have a forum tonight and then we said to ourselves no this is probably a topic that we need to talk about this is the kind of kind of thing that the forum exists to do to have public conversation on issues that matter and this certainly is a issue that matters religious extremism in our midst in our city and so we decided instead to turn to a local expert who could engage in conversation with us on that topic and we're very honored that afghan john rodson could join us this evening especially on such short notice i'm also grateful to susan mckenna who is the director of the forum susan over here who managed to turn all this around so quickly let's thank susan for all she does for the forum welcome to the westminster town hall forum where for 34 years we have engaged the public in reflection and dialogue on the key issues of our day from an ethical perspective all forums are free and open to the public and information on upcoming events can be found online at westminsterforum.org you can like us on facebook and follow us on twitter as well my name is tim hart anderson i'm the senior minister at westminster presbyterian church located on nicolette mall in beautiful downtown minneapolis and moderator of the forum in the last several weeks national attention has focused on minnesota as a center for religious extremism tonight afsheen john rodson who is a professor at william mitchell college of law in saint paul and a leading authority on national security issues will explore the topic of religious extremism and terrorism how should we respond he brings a unique combination of professional experience in both law enforcement and intelligence activities to this issue he has served as a federal prosecutor and as assistant general counsel at the cia and over the years he has advised officials from countries around the world on legal issues related to national security at william mitchell he is founder and director of the national security forum an organization committed to increasing public awareness and influencing public policy on the balance between liberty and security in american counterterrorism policies ladies and gentlemen please join me in welcoming to the westminster town hall forum of sheen john rodson at this moment i may be the only one in this great setting that is happy that you lost your other speaker i hope that by the end of the presentation there will be some people that will say that was not so bad and i have brought two family members and at the end they're going to put their hands up and say i'm happy that that speaker canceled too there is something divine about the number three there are three great religions judaism christianity and islam in christianity we speak about three manifestations of god the father the son and the holy ghost and i'm going to carry out this tradition of threes to give you three options during this presentation the first option it has to do with what you do with your eyes i'm 51 so i need reading glasses so there's a barrier between me and you all but those of you that would like to close your eyes for the entire presentation you're welcome to do so close them now but please don't snore the second group if you like you can attempt to keep your eyes open the entire presentation this will be tiring by the end but you can continue to stare at me for 53 minutes or most of you i invite you at various segments to visualize a visual image that makes sense and you'll count these visuals and you'll notice that somehow they divide by three now the first place that i'd like to take you to is london july 7 2005. now we had the fortune of doing an event with minnesota public radio in london and we discussed the significance of this day now this is a day after 9 11 where there was a terrorist attack in london if you recall there were four suicide bombers they were killed and there were 52 other people that were killed civilians innocents in the tube in the bus and it's a sad day and we've had other sad days in the fight against terrorism so i don't want you to focus on that negative but i want you to think about the next day and my ideas are about what we do after the next attack and the british they have had more experience than we have in war and in terrorism and what you will see in london if you go back and this is the visual is to think of piccadilly circus an iconic location and people went about their business as usual they took the tube they took the bus and implicit in that is that we will not allow threats from whatever sources to change our way of life we will be free we will be reasonable but we will go about our business now you're probably used to hearing the word first responders when we have an attack we read the 911 report about the success and lack of success from fire departments police departments the military we hear about the hospitals this is all the physical necessities to protect buildings to seal off areas and i think we've gotten very good in terms of physical preparedness now you recall it was not a terrorist incident that we had here in the twin cities but we had a bridge that went down the public sector the private sector they worked very well we rebuilt the bridge so i'm not talking to you today about physical preparedness but i want you to have something else in mind and that is a kind of emotional preparedness to say to yourself we're going to have another attack it's going to happen president bush said it president obama said it they don't get into the details of it because it's bad politics but i think we would be better as a nation if we accepted this tonight we're going to have an attack and ask ourselves how will we behave the next day and then the normative question how should we behave after the next attack and that's the core of what i'm asking you today and i have some ideas about what we should do in terms of the next attack now you're very kind to have me here tim mentioned my cia and justice department experience and you're probably ready to hear these hard recommendations and there's going to be a lot of softness in what i'm saying and your second visual if you choose to close your eyes is to focus on the statue of liberty this great symbol of openness to all people of all faiths or whether they have faith or not and we're going to get together at that location after this attack and we're going to be holding hands we'll have yoga pants on we're going to be flexible we're going to be open-minded we're not going to turn on each other we're not going to identify people from particular groups but we're going to say that this group of individuals did something wrong how can we learn from it how can we reduce the chances of another attack now the speaker that canceled probably identified a particular threat that exists here in the twin cities and we've been getting coverage in the new york times and if something makes it to the new york times it's been validated in the country and around the world so let's let's talk about this community and i remember when i showed up here in 2004 i went to meet a former governor and i wanted to tell him about the events that we were going to do in this location hopefully in other locations and he told me what are you doing peddling fear and the next thing i knew it i was being escorted out of the office and i realized maybe maybe it's because i don't root for minnesota he could tell i was a duke fan but there was something deeper going on in this this discussion is that he didn't want to talk about what was going on right here in the twin cities that i knew about from my friends in law enforcement and intelligence community i'll just go through some observations you'll nod you said we've heard this before but let's put it together and we know that we have the largest somali community in the united states now the estimates of that community are about a hundred thousand the united states and thirty to forty thousand right here but the new york times will say repeatedly we have the largest somali community here and they came like my parents seeking a better life they came fleeing problems in their home country and they had a refuge here how did they end up here i've asked them how did you all end up here i tend to have this conversation when it's 20 below zero with them and we're we're asking ourselves yes one winner but why would anyone come back and they say that there was a church group and social services and the first group that came here after the problems in their country they were well received they got jobs and as happens with many immigrant groups then word spread back home and some when someone decided to come to the united states they didn't do the sensible thing and say let's go out to san diego where the weather is nice all year round they said you have a cousin you have a brother you have a grandfather that lives in the twin cities why don't you go to the twin cities and that explains here and they've spread to other parts of the country why we have such a large somali community now there is a concern about radicalization and somalis are not the only group that's susceptible to radicalization radicalization is something that happens to all people of faith or not faith but what we can see and maybe we'll just discuss this in the back and forth is kind of a conveyor belt going down the line of people willing to do certain services and then going all the way at the end of the conveyor belt where they're willing to kill other people or to kill themselves while killing other people when we had cia officers recruiting spies it's a similar conveyor belt you get people to do something for you then you ask them to do more you ask them to do more and you work on any type of weakness that you see economic problems resentment about what's going on here idealism about what's going on in their home country you use those human emotions to move toward a goal and we can see that in the recruiting that's going on of somalis today whether it's here in other parts of the country something that has made it even more difficult to track is the social media the internet facebook i mean this is different from the 911 generation in 9 11 people were using the internet to put messages but they were not using it as the sophisticated recruitment device that it is today and you'll see in the literature that they talk about jihadis in the basement that you don't even need to go to a training camp you don't even need to be part of a group you can find fellow travelers there on the internet and some of these kids may be telling mom and dad they're doing their homework they're doing math and science when they're downloading videos they're getting manuals and this makes it very difficult to fare it out especially in a society that values its liberties we don't want to be snooping but we don't want people building bombs or concocting plots the new york times at various times has said that the counter terrorism investigation that goes on here in the twin cities is the most significant counter-terrorism investigation since 9 11. that's disturbing probably to most citizens it gives me an opportunity having worked in this area to talk about these issues to talk about issues that matter to you right here we know or i'll remind you that the first american suicide bomber a man by the name of sherwood ahmed was from the twin cities he was recruited here and he went back to somalia fighting against what he considered oppressors but fighting for what the state department considered a designated terrorist group he blew himself up 2008. and you don't have to be the head of the cia or the head of the fbi to figure out that that's a problem that if somebody is willing to blow himself up overseas it won't take much to turn that person back to the united states now isis or isil is in the news we're concerned about the situation in syria and iraq and we find out that that recruitment pipeline that involved 20 or so people here seems to have expanded that we have people not only going to somalia to train with al-shabab but we have people that are going to syria and iraq to fight against our interest so this is i mean this is a concern and for this visual i'd like you to imagine a tale of two cities but it's not the cities from dickens but it's the cities that are important to this community mogadishu in somalia and little mogadishu here today and to keep in mind what's going on in those two communities because they do have an interplay let me present you an alarming scenario and it plays into my idea of what we do after the next attack i have bad news while you've been here three men and one woman have been recruited in the twin cities and they are engaged in a terrorist attack they trained in somalia at al-shabab camp and they are now at the mall of america they watched what happened in mumbai at a series of hotels and they've carried out this plan at this moment and they're shooting people in the mall of america they're detonating bombs and there's a lot of blood there explosives and this has happened this is this is the reality that we're going to face when we leave this this fine setting and i want you to ask well what what are we going to do what should we do and that will be the test for all of us and it's a simple test between our brain or in our brain a battle between the front part of your brain the cortex and the back of your brain the reptilian side because you will be angry and you'll want to stop other people from doing this but i'm not sure that that's the right approach now i've been asking you to close your eyes and have these visuals it would be easy for me to say visualize a brain scan i don't want you to do that i want you to visualize the american eagle if you notice the cia seal incorporates the eagle my national security forum we have an eagle there and what i like about this symbol is that it represents two ideas that are not always in balance but need to be one is to protect ourselves against the exterior threats to defend but at the same time that you're doing this to protect your liberties because the eagle stands for defense and liberty at the same time so that's a nice image for you to have in your minds think of that great american eagle doing both of those functions so how about a few comments about islam let's not dodge from this topic what's the muslim world if you do a wikipedia you'll see about one 1.6 billion people some are devout some are less devout some are shiites some are sudanese and within this community the number of people that are hardcore sunni extremists is very small and you're probably not going to change their mind if you were able to meet iman zawahiri the head of al qaeda as charming as you are as much minnesota nice as you do you will not talk him out of it don't don't even try and then he has an al-qaeda a few hundred people that are with him and you probably can't talk them out of it but it's that next circle the people that might drive for them the people that will give a hundred dollars those are people whose minds can be changed and you might not necessarily change them by going at them and pointing fingers or fingers at them and telling them that they're a threat and then there's that third circle which will be all the muslims in the world and if they feel that you're attacking that second circle or people that are like them they will feel threatened and they may be radicalized or they may not help you so the visual that i want you here to imagine is three circles now three circles there's a bullseye that's small there's a second circle these help us and then there's a lot of space in the third circle and we as a country are fighting for the people in that second circle bring them to the peaceful side get them to help us even if they won't help get them to not be willing to help extremists and that's a daily task for all of us now i can see there's this gentleman here is saying you know professor that's all very nice but would you be practical give us some ideas of what we can do right now that we've had the attack what recommendations do you have and i'll give you a few recommendations one is one is to work on this idea of assimilation whether it's coaching soccer educational programs reaching out so that people whether somalis iranians whatever nationality so that they do not feel that they're on the margin get people like that to come to these kind of events reach out to them i mean this is one of our main lines of defense and and the experts will tell you if somebody spends a lot of time here it's difficult for many of them to maintain that hatred because we're generally good people now what was surprising about muhammad atta one of the 9 11 hijackers is that he spent a couple years here and maintained that hatred and as i said with that inner core there's only so much you can do i would increase the amount of electronic surveillance we're doing this is not going to be well received but i think the debates about nsa and snowden i think they're somewhat off mark is after the next attack you'll look it back at those debates and say this was off we need to have more electronic surveillance we need to be giving up some of our privacy to be able to ferret out some of these plots we need to be running more intelligence networks whether it's here or overseas human sources developing relationships whether it's the cia overseas whether it's the fbi here and then here's my professorial mode educational programs i think everyone should be required to take a course in anthropology and to look at where humans where they started and where they spread and if you really think that you're superior because you're a swede over the norwegians you need to go back for another course and then discussions about islam and don't get high-minded because a muslim will then come back and tell you that if you only focus on the crusades the inquisition and what went on in northern ireland your religion may seem violent to many people there are negative aspects to islam and practice we can be aware of it but we don't have to emphasize it and blow it out of proportion so here's my seventh visual and this is this is a collage of faces of muslims the diversity of the muslim world and it's got the title under it says i am a muslim i am a muslim you'll see africans you'll see blonde blue-haired blue-eyed people that look like you all i am a muslim get used to it there are a lot of them now this the caveat as i head to the home stretch is that i don't have an answer to one scenario and i think the president agrees with me about this and we want to push this off if we have a catastrophic attack chemical biological or nuclear weapons i don't think that we are capable of a proper emotional response i think it's over it won't take the united states away physically but i don't think that we will live our life the way we did before it's too much to ask that's a catastrophic attack that's not the attack that we just had at the mall of america in my scenario that's not 911. that's not even a dirty bomb we we can handle those kind of attacks we have the resilience as we showed in boston but if you have a bomb a nuclear bomb that goes off at an american city that's the end and i think most cia directors most intelligence officials will admit it it's a new it will be a new era and that visual and it's a negative one is something out of a mad max movie who's who's seen that movie mad max mel gibson the early ones it's post-apocalyptic and there's a still from that and keep your hands up because i need these votes that say i'm happy that radson came here instead of that other speaker keep keep them up let me give you some more bad news before you say to yourselves we can rise to this challenge that professor ransom has given us today our track record is mixed in terms of dealing with crises the palmer raids have you heard of the palmer raids when we went after communists in the 20s we saw reds everywhere red was the color in everybody's eyes it's as if our retinas had changed korramatsu does this ring a bell in turning 120 000 japanese americans and japanese aliens in camps on trumped-up charges of espionage sabotage there wasn't anything to it landowners in california they wanted to take the land of japanese farmers this was convenient world war ii not such a great reaction and those of you that keep score republicans and democrats remember korematsu that was fdr that's on a democrats watch the hostage crisis 1979-81 scapegoating that went on here we saw iranians everywhere they even considered me a threat american-born my uncle was on a kill list but that reptilian brain said he looks like them he smells like them he eats the same food that they do i don't know that i trust him and i'm hoping that the cortex will take over so this is you know this is the negative image maybe some of you that haven't been pleased with the presentation will enjoy this but the image is me in a detention camp that after all my service if something goes boom you won't even be comfortable with me you won't feel safe with this american-born person that's been trying to help his country and if our somali friends think that i'm picking on them i want to remind them i'm a child of immigrants my parents are both both muslims they're from iran i think iran conjures up as many negative images as somalia and we ask people deal with it embrace us we're not all terrorists so what we what can we do i don't want us to end on a sour note and i think tim is happy we're we're staying within time and how many times have you heard that a professor would speak 25 to 30 and he stayed within his time limit this is an accomplishment in itself so i want you now those of you that have been playing with these visuals i want you to open your eyes open them wide i want you to smile as things go on i want you to hug your neighbor i want you to rejoice remember you survived one of the worst winters in minnesota history you survived another year in what the new york times as early as the 19th century described as american siberia you made it you're up to the challenge you can handle another attack you can do it we trust you bismillah rahman and may the peace of allah and god be upon us all today as we handle these important issues i believe that's the first time a town hall forum audience has been asked to hug one another but restrain yourselves minnesotans i know you want to do it but thank you john rosden you're listening to the westminster town hall forum broadcast from westminster presbyterian church on nicolette mall in downtown minneapolis my name is tim hart anderson the senior minister here at westminster presbyterian church and moderator of the forum our speaker is officine john rodson a leading authority on national security and professor at william mitchell college of law in saint paul while the ushers collect questions from the in-house audience i'd like to invite the radio audience to join us at westminster church for our next forum on thursday october 16 at noon when distinguished journalist bob herbert will speak on the topic losing our way can we restore the american dream our events are always free and open to the public and further information can be found at our website westminsterforum.org now john rosden if you would return to the pulpit i will present the questions from our audience i'd like to return first to the three circles you mentioned you said the inner circle radicalized extremists who who really uh we couldn't affect or change a few hundred of those the second circle i believe you said to me before the program a couple hundred thousand maybe several hundred thousand i wouldn't even go that high not even that high okay let's let's say in the tens of thousands but okay tens of thousands and the third circle of course the rest of islam a billion point five or one point five plus muslims how are our policies affecting the size and the direction those circles go uh what we're doing for instance right now in syria and iran and what's your sense of whether that's driving people from the second circle into the inner circle or out toward the vast majority of muslims if we focus on iraq and syria this is a delicate play for the president and all his advisers we know that we have a threat there this threat may eventually reach us in the united states it's destabilizing the region it would take discipline it would take courage not to do anything about the situation what's clear to the advisors is that by going into this area and bombing or rounding people up using force this is going to be played or distorted on in the various media outlets and we're probably going to create people that do not like what we're doing so it's going to have that boomerang effect and and that's the balance of the the long-term strategy versus the immediate strategy you'll hear somebody like david petraeus talk in these terms about the counter insurgency aspect which is the long the long game for this and i've i've focused my remarks on this counter insurgency but if you have an immediate threat you have to deal with the terrorism the counterterrorism the short-term threat and sometimes those are in sync sometimes they're not does religious extremism really have anything to do with religion it it it may i i think in this society people that are devout perhaps are in the minority people that take their faith seriously for one of the first times in history are in a small group and they will seem to atheist agnostics they will seem extreme that they carry these views now even within these traditions you're going to have a range of practices some of which correspond with our society that is a blend of religious and non-religious and some that will seem some of it will seem extreme but i think the tipping point for most is when you decide that you're going to kill other people because of their religion their thoughts or their group identification this is something that those three great religions should come together and say this is this is wrong you don't you don't pick out shiites if you're a suddenly extremist to kill you don't pick out christians you don't pick out jews and with this type of extremism that we focused on they have attacked all of these groups and and part of our long game is trying to remind the muslim world that muslims have probably been a higher proportion of the victims of suddenly extremist attacks whether it's al qaeda whether it's isis or whether it's al-shabab the original town of forum program for this evening featured a speaker who is a well-known atheist uh and he felt he had to withdraw because of the many threats against him uh in in coming to the twin cities threats from religious extremists how can we assess whether those threats were real or not what's your reaction what's your feeling about that i don't want to diminish uh any of the explanations that you've heard if he has voicemails if he's had letters emails that are of a threatening sort and he's decided that he doesn't want to speak here because of that we'll have to accept that that he has that kind of information on the other hand if he's reading the new york times about our community and deciding that this is a hotbed for radical acts i think that that is an extreme reaction in itself that people are safe here i i feel safe the somali community feels safe they've had some people that have decided to go and train in camps they've been recruited for groups but as i said to a family member that i love more than anything in this world i think that there was more of a threat in our drive from saint paul to here today than there was from any terrorist attack for me or anyone else here and some of you were driving with me and if you had that text at the same time that you were reaching around please don't do it you're going to hurt yourself and maybe hurt somebody else in your remarks you mentioned little mogadishu a neighborhood here in minneapolis how do how do we as a community open some dialogue across barriers that are cultural and and ethnic and and immigrant and non-immigrant conversations that we presently are not having in the community between perhaps the the community of little mogadishu and the rest of this city on these very issues it it's difficult because you don't want to invade people's sense of their space what is familiar to them but i think you want to you want to meet people on on their area where they where they like to eat where they go and smoke cigarettes where they have tea if you know a somali ask ask to be taken to that place it's also a great opportunity for interfaith dialogue because many of our somalis are devout they revere their religion but they understand that christianity is also a religion of the book and if somebody of you reach out to them and say you want to talk about areas where you have things in common or common common difficulties that you have for people of faith whether they're christians whether they're jews or muslims i think most people would be receptive and i think a lot of the religious leaders in town have have been willing to have these kind of exchanges and we need to do more and not not only church the church find find out what they'd like to do whether they like to play soccer or other sports when we we were relieved i was playing uh soccer with my son in saint paul and there was an area it was fairly clear that they were playing soccer among themselves it was a somali group and we thought well maybe we won't be accepted into this group and they were far more welcoming than people playing sports on other playgrounds and we got over whatever inhibitions we had and there was no reason to have these inhibitions it's it's reaching out and i again disagree with tim if you feel like hugging your neighbor go ahead and do it it'll it'll be okay and if anyone feels like hugging me you come on up here i'll i'll give you a big hug yeah uh you've got a long wait before that will happen this question has to do with your background on national security and as a person who formerly worked with the cia do you believe that today in 2014 the fbi and cia and other u.s agencies are sharing security information more effectively than they were in the years months and weeks and days before 9 11. the record was so bad before 9 11 they don't have to do much more to say that they're doing better and i i ask my friends in the fbi and you know the fbi they're much more willing to talk about their work than the former ci or the current cia and i only had a few years of the cia i had six years of the justice department and i ask them this question and they all tell me that we're we're doing better we're doing much better but i sense in their body language that maybe we're not doing as well as we should they're they're different organizations the fbi and the cia they have different cultures they have different missions they're going to be some problems in communication for those groups you remember in 2009 the attempted christmas day bombing the underwear bomber he tried to detonate explosives in his underwear and president obama was appalled because we had set up these memoranda better cooperation among the agencies we had set up the national counterterrorism center with this idea that you would take the bits and pieces of intelligence and put it together we had the bits and pieces there but we didn't put it together but keep in mind as they say they have to be 100 percent effective all the time for you to be happy all it takes is one slip up and there's there's a loss of life and there's a damage to our american fabric so that's a high order but i'm hopeful i think i think they're doing better than they did i think we had an opportunity in the first few years after 9 11 before we made the pivot into iraq we were doing far better in afghanistan than people imagine we were winning the counter-terrorism mission to borrow from what president obama said al qaeda was there in afghanistan saddam hussein was a secular leader he didn't have any links with al qaeda if he did they were marginal and then we made this pivot for other reasons a country that was boxed in by no-fly zones we should have finished the counter-insurgency job in afghanistan and then there would have been the possibility to address other other problems in other parts of the world but we have to play the hand that we have today and it's a very disturbing situation in syria and iraq that you might look back to the al qaeda problem and say that was easier to handle going into afghanistan once we had american will i don't see that there's an easy solution to what's going on in syria and iraq what do you see as the long-range future of isis or isil the i'm not a politician so i can tell you i have no idea and i think the president has no idea and they say that they're going to decimate them get rid of them that's the posturing that must come from politicians but they're hoping that they can reduce the threat from isis back here and reduce the destabilizing influence that it has in the region now this problem creates strange alliances remember isis is a sunni extremist group the syrian group is fighting against assad assad is propped up by the iranians but we don't like the syrians or the iranians but they would be two very important partners in fighting isis and we keep courting iran asking them let's do something and iran wants the sanctions taken away and we missed an opportunity for cooperation i think earlier on with iran and they're they're playing the long game in the region and i i wonder from their perspective are they sincerely concerned about isis coming to them is it a threat or do they view it as something that will weaken our position in the middle east and they're probably sophisticated iranian officials that have each of those two views and they're debating that do they consider isis to be their problem a real problem if so then there are areas of cooperation with us or is this a way to bleed us in the middle east in that case they're not going to help us until only a few months ago really most of us had never heard of isis will there continue to be new extremists separatist groups uh splinter groups forming if isis is in fact defeated or degraded sure this is uh what the terrorism experts describe as a metastasizing is that you you go after one group it splinters you get more radical groups there are people that are talking to reporters at the new york times at other places saying that there there are groups even worse than isis and isil there are groups that are more radical and once you eliminate isis or isil or once you lower the threat then some of these groups will emerge this this is what president bush said this is what president obama said that this fight against extremism against terrorism is a generational fight generations are 20 to 30 years and i think both of them mean it we went a number of years without any problems here in the united states we thought that there would be more attacks major attacks in the united states we've gotten 13 years that's not that long in the perspective of some of these terrorist groups it's obvious to you but let's repeat it the first attack on the world trade center was 1993. they killed some people they took a part of the building they kept coming and they waited eight years and in that nasty and hateful way they finished the job so even if we've gone eight years ten years without an attack it's not done now the interesting question i'll turn is how do we know that we've won the war on terror how would you set up the metrics for that how many years do you have to go without an attack and some of you may be suspicious i mean this props up a lot of spending by our national security machinery and ask it from the perspective of a president i mean when can you tell the people relax it's not as bad as i said and then if you have an attack how the people will come after you and keep in mind that this president's name is barack hussein obama and i think he's worried about your reptilian response if something happens and you haven't protected the american homeland so he's going to er on the side of protecting rather than have he's not so concerned about you worried about your civil liberties he wants to make sure that something big doesn't go boom in an american city and it's a huge responsibility if we increase electronic surveillance as you recommend won't we be giving in to terrorism by giving up our individual liberties that we seek to defend yes in part we will but i think it's a it's a sacrifice that's worth making because if we have that next attack i i think people will then put on the table far more aggressive measures i'm trying to put off that catastrophic attack i'm trying to figure out if we have a series of attacks in the next 10 20 years what is the reasonable long-term framework for battling terrorism something that doesn't swing back and forth and i'm i don't i don't spend much time if any on facebook or these areas i assume that somebody's listening to my phone conversations i try to be more eloquent i work on it it's it's not it's not tough with you remember the prior president he had a problem with subject verb predicate so i am happy to be here and that's a sentence and i'm doing better than one president of the united states how do you assess the actions of former nsa employee edward snowden who released information on this electronic surveillance done by the government was this an act of treason or the act of a whistleblower i was asked this question once before on minnesota public radio so for those of you that go on the archives i'm going to give the same answer the answer is both and it depends on point of view or emphasis from the standpoint of the american intelligence community you can't have people deciding that they can share top secret information with the russians or other groups you'll break down any military organization any intelligence organization so this is an act of treason an act of espionage it's a crime that needs to be prosecuted on the other hand from the standpoint of citizens we feel that there's too much secrecy we don't know enough about our government i think many of us appreciate information so we can have a more robust debate on this proper balance of electronic surveillance within a democracy i keep talking about balance there's another one of these balances that is very very difficult you have democracy which requires openness transparency but then you have agencies that need secrecy to be effective the cia the military the state department you can't tell people in syria where we're going to bomb in advance it will break down now how do you balance this what is the right level of secrecy and transparency that's very much in the eye of the beholder and it sometimes depends on whether your guy or gal is in the oval office and what i'm suggesting is let's think about a proper balance that will span a generation democrats republicans i i'm willing to accept a little bit more electronic surveillance but i'm i'm not sure let's have the debate and i think the president is not sure he's been calling for this debate with the american people to find you know to find the right equilibrium point what's your position on aggressive interrogation or torture with suspected terrorists as a means to national security remember this was the big issue after 9 11. we did not interrogate that many people we're now killing rather than capturing and interrogating people by the use of drones i i think the debate's been simplified and i'd like to again create the third category the question is not to torture or not to torture there's one threshold of what we can do if we approach this problem from the law enforcement standpoint the fbi's rules due process that gets you about this far then there's a gap and in that area you have some tactics that go beyond what the fbi can use but are below any reasonable definition of torture i'm not talking about waterboarding i'll give for example the idea of sleep deprivation a day of keeping somebody up two days the definition of torture is severe physical or psychological pain i think you cheapen the word torture by saying a day of sleep deprivation is torture so if you had iman zawahiri in custody the head of al qaeda and he's not giving you information and you're worried about active plots i as the president or i as his advisor would be tempted to go beyond the fbi model and the president retains that discretion right now he said we will not torture but that's not as a matter of american law that's an executive order and he has this gray area that is permitted to him for these interrogations and the question i have for you all is is obama charming enough or duplicitous enough to say we don't torture we have this executive order and he signed a secret amendment to that executive order allowing some of these enhanced interrogations that's a problem for democracy but i think that the secrecy that goes with presidential power permits this and when you pick a president you're picking the possibility that someone would do that in addition to the possibility of taking us to war can you say something about the psychological profile of people that uh are being drawn into the radical islamist groups from say europe or united states what are the the reasons young men and or women from somali neighborhood in minneapolis might be drawn into joining a militant group overseas there's a whole host of reasons and i don't claim to have any particular profile or trait i don't think it exists within the law enforcement community i don't think it exists in the intelligence community and this is public record for a while we were trying to figure out what causes people to become traitors if we're recruiting spies or are people becoming spies for the other side and you find out that there's a whole range of reasons of why people are unhappy why they would do something that's a crime or why they would go on this conveyor belt but tim on this on one point where the experts agree is we used to believe we had this narrative about muslims in europe and muslims in the united states and for a long time we thought that we had the happy muslims people muslims that come to america they're happy they're not going to do anything wrong and the muslims that they have in england and france those are the unhappy muslims they do bad things in those countries and they get recruited that narrative has broken down because if you go back on basic immigration patterns these muslims started in many of the same countries whether they had the family network or an opportunity some of them go to europe some of them go here through the social media we find out that there are a lot more connections now between european muslims and american muslims in this this broader radicalization process it's it's a problem it's been a problem for them it is a problem for us to what degree to do uh policies that try to force assimilation for instance uh laws against wearing a burqa in public to what degree are those contributing to the problem radicalization i we don't we don't force that upon people here we may have our social pressures but i think your your question or your question is getting into some of the practices in france i mean france is very adamant about protecting their secular values insisting that women take off the burqas or other headdress as a part of their their values there and i i followed some of the reading i'm not an expert there but it seems that this is then uh bothering alienating some of the muslims there and it's definitely being discussed in capitals in the muslim world they point to france and say to their people or others look this is how they treat muslims they don't respect your religion and it has a possibility in terms of radicalizing the last time we had a tunnel forum speaker who told us that he was threatened coming to speak here was morris dees of the southern poverty law center and his work uh as focused on going after u.s domestic-based terrorists mostly christian extremists on the right and apparently there are several such groups in minnesota and he was threatened but he came anyway and spoke we haven't talked about domestic terrorist uh non-islamist terrorist timothy mcveigh comes to mind to what degree is that an actual threat today in our in our culture in our society do you think it's we we have that potential in other groups and the mcveigh will then be the non non-religious type of terrorists my sense is that relative to the threat that comes from muslim-inspired groups that that that has receded but we we may be letting down our guard and i want to make one one comment you heard some arabic words that's the invocation from the quran i'm not a religious muslim it's the invocation to every chapter but i noticed some people were very troubled to hear arabic words in a church and it means most compassionate most municipal god i mean we all believe in the same god they they're fulfilling your mission so just because it was spoken in arabic doesn't mean anything naughty was said salaam alaikum right peace be upon you peace be upon you sounds nicer but it's all right if it's said in a different language control control those reactions i should point out that's not the first time arabic has been spoken in the sanctuary uh we've been called to worship by uh arabic muegons from a local mosque but i know why the woman disapproved because i'm a persian speaking arabic with a persian accent she said his arab his arabic is so bad and i think she wants to come up here and do that invocation when we finish and i i again embrace her and i won't hug her somebody's got to give this man a hug when this program's over all right tim that's coming from you let me let me ask you about uh minneapolis city council abdi warsami elected as a somali-american from little mogadishu and now on our city council is that going to affect in a positive way the kind of assimilation you're talking about in our community how could it not we believe in democracy elections we're telling people if you want to push your values run for office vote for people that you accept in office how could it not and i i believe that the election of obama was a great victory against some of the recruitment because of his immigrant background because of a grandfather that was a muslim what a great symbol for the united states that goes beyond politics the first election i watched some of the news i speak spanish and french and i watched the news programs there on the internet and they were asking among themselves they didn't know that there was an american listening in they said could this happen here could we have somebody with obama's background to rise to the highest position in our democracy and the answer in the uk was no the answer in france was no and the consensus was that they were a generation away so i've given you some gloomy scenarios but that is good news that goes beyond his politics that it is something great for this country that you can elect somebody whose father came from africa right who has a crazy name i think it's one of the comedians that said this is the greatest politician right barack it reminds you of iraq hossein it's going to remind you about saddam hussein then obama you confused with osama and that's and that guy gets elected two times that's that's great i i'm glad we're ending on an upbeat note because it was a little bit uh rough earlier let me just ask you this knowing what you know and you know a lot more than the people in this room about religious extremism are you hopeful for american democracy and our future in this land yes we've had extreme views political views religious views and it seems to work in this country i talked to a religious iranian who's a former adviser to one of the presidents we were walking down the beach in venice in california and you have all kinds there and he had a big smile on his face and i said what's going on he said your country is the most amazing large intestine that i have ever seen and you i s you know what he meant but i said what do you mean he said you can take anything and you digest it and you seem to get nutrition from it that is great that's something to be proud of you began by saying you were going to offer us some really good visual imagery and you you ended on a notable image thank you very much thank you john rossdale you

420 Show: Origins, 107 Year Old Downer, No Drug Tests, Safe Cookies - THE CORRECT VIEWS 4/20/2018
greetings unsettled soul welcome to the correct stand my feet again G do it in the 420 show you guys know what we doing 420 right we bring out the characters they bring out the characters they come to see us on Halloween they come to see us on Friday the 13th and April Fool's Day and of course for it's fun everybody's favorite buddy puff is going to be giving you four new stories here on 4/20 they all at least have something to do with marijuana and again for those of you that have been followed the show or maybe new to it all of the stories that you will be getting a real however the character giving it to you the intern of the show he's not real but he could be hey buddy are you ready can you have it all right fine I'm gonna have you go live are you ready okay Betty yeah hey just as soon as you sit oh hey what's up man it's foolish believe me it's like a major hall keep in mind for those of you that tune in to all the show I'm gonna let you know something you can do with your stems man in states where it's legal keg is you can view it in states where it's not legal to but anyway I wanted to let you know that it's 4/20 nothing to do with Hitler's birthday people would like either Hitler was born on April 20th then a superb [ __ ] you know what happens it listen to the Yahoo News for 20 long strange trip to talk holiday like it began in California I don't think anybody's really that shocked about it I kind of like a nice musical that's not it started so please Allison check this out man San Rafael California in Friday 420 or 420 men the people that originally started naming it that are now like gray hair of California dudes in their 60s now let me ask me how many of you thought it was named that because pot came up on route 4 20 out of Mexico that's always been the story I was told man but you they might have been like IR it's up when they were telling me anyway I hate when Yahoo does ap that's not smart enough to kill that they're like oh they're now and they're talking about how it came to be and this was like a really cool story check this out we thought it was just like a joke then he said that 50 years ago Reddick's and his four buddies named Steve Cooper Larry Schwartz and I was working with him Jeff no well like a present manner before 20 present and what gavage were stone and click and they hung out at particular were all between classes and that was it San Rafael high they dubbed themselves the Waldos a term coined by comedian Buddy Hackett to describe people who were kind of odd well they supposedly had a a special map purported to show a location of a marijuana garden in the forest that was nearby Point Reyes National Seashore so like any good pot heads me and they went to go and check it out in the pot patch belonged whose brother-in-law was it like Coast Guard he like I don't know much about the Coast Guard but I don't think sure to say they were very happy about it the classmate explained that his brother-in-law paranoid have exposed you and washing out the reserves was we now the ownership of the guard me and I gotta want it no more yo he handed camper the map and said the Waldos were welcome to the feed and the five excited friends what after school and decided to meet at Louie pastures [ __ ] Louie passed you statute 4:20 p.m. and then two of them finish practice man late pirate in the cap was 1966 and power which like men was new you know and pop down the Grateful Dead and the 8-track I bet they're in better shape the story yeah but anyway they passed around the joint and they took the 45-minute ride man five now firmly middle-class fathers dressed in palo t shirts and khaki pants which is why I'd rested my spiffy sports coat because I think Christelle move with the bungee shirt men they laughed about tumbling out their water smoke with the car when they got there and said it was like straight out of a teacher child movie according to Schwartz they didn't sign of hash that Dave avowed to keep searching and they would whisper 420 newest after the past year past um dude to each other in a new attempt it was kind of indicated that they should meet at 4:20 at the past your statue well the patch never was family think we were probably too stoned divided but then 4/20 became something that we talked about it was a this muted 422 get high after school and I don't think we ever thought it would catch on and of course everybody knows now it's all about smoking weed and even that's it like the dictionary and stuff you can read the article and it's posted Yahoo but I thought that was pretty cool and now unfortunately me in the second story I got to get you isn't cool and once again it hanging around to the end and I let you know what you should do with your dams me keep them on here and I'm gonna keep you by Oh little bit of insight I check this out Pittsburgh CB s social and this isn't a long story for 420 but man it is kind of a downer queen for a day Pittsburgh woman celebrates her holidays and seventh birthday and I mean this is really cool I'm happy she made it that long that she says thank you Lord I don't know how much longer I'm going to stay here but I had a good time and you know what you think man she mighta had a good time getting high like token up she was born on March 29th 1911 man what you Pittsburgh she said she ate everything that was nailed to the floor I mean like you name it she was eating it unfortunately she says she never smoked man she said she had food vices and would not ever ever smoke she never drank either so it's like me you get to be like I don't even seven years old but he did you find out that you can't even talk up on 4/20 so we're gonna stay with and dirt it we it seems right man seems like me was talking about cigarettes and we were talking about weed mrs. Ford funny all right listen to this Bloomberg the club coming decline of the employee drug test now this is good news in all the ways that the last one was like down and out yeah and I'll tell you why that so would need you pissed at some people man it goes against the Fourth Amendment the Fourth Amendment clearly says that you are not to have any searches or seizures or unreasonable snoop it's done on your stuff you know and it happens all the time they've been taking your URI you got a bit of a cold here to it like right now employers are struggling that happens when you get read with other people and gotta go not that I would employers are struggling to hire workers in the tightening us child market if marijuana is not legal at nine states including DC meaning more than one in five American adults eat drink or smoke or faint as they please the result it says is a small steady decline in pre-employment drug test Man which for decades have been a requirement for new recruits industries ranging from manufacturing to finance is misconception that is she liked to smoke up a little man you can't work in finance but ask anybody that's ever sold a bag of weed man you gotta know how to add subtract you got tutors are coming in listening to the 4/20 show man listen it's beginning of 2018 excellence half eight in Las vegas-based health care company with around six thousand employees there's like a lot of people they no longer drug test people coming to work at the pharmaceutical side of the business the company stopped testing for marijuana two years ago man and said we don't care what people do in their spare time and that's a core like the leader fire a company spokesman so little by little what you're seeing is that you keep all of your rights pac-man because pots become legal in a whole bunch of places and this fact is that someone for alcohol yeah oh my god one story left oh man it's so cool absolutely back home we have to call it too bad no cos were in Ohio oh I'm sorry seems like nah man it is okay that brings us to the Debian yeah they'll read the tub D of the day goes to the people that got high up for cookies you didn't have anything in it to get in my high do you ever go ahead and you give somebody like nod we'd give him like comes and you need parsley and then they think they're high you give them like half a shot of vodka it like two shots and water and they're falling down the steps because they think they're plants well that's what happened to these people in this story it was long reported and even same report about it on the conservative Daily Post that he wrote an article all about these weed cookies man well listen to the way it ended you'd have to be stoned to make this bunch of a bit statement yeah Yahoo did it again they're gonna mess me up yeah this isn't Bangor Maine like I wonder if Stephen King at some officials say that cookies dropped off at of Maine daycare center staff members complained made them feel high contained no and listed substances so whoever made it was being stingy with the Green Man about a dozen staff members that watch the shy day carrot banger reported feeling intoxicated again happens last Valentine's Day after they ate cookies for that holiday man that was dropped off by a parent the Bangor Daily News reports of according to police they seized the remaining cookies and haven't tested sergeant Wayne betters man he's thought better of it said Monday that none of the cookies tested positive for any controlled substances a given they would be a stingy with the green police don't know what caused the staff to feel fuzzy and say that man they are you gonna be no challenge it's bad because they were just like cookies man the daycare doubt prohibits outside food children and staff and no children ate the cookies so even though their buddy did anything nefarious to the cookies they're still like man we're gonna be like cookie donkeys we're gonna come in and out let you have any and that's your 4/20 show I'm really go ahead and I hope you liked everything I did I hope you eat chairman in the next Friday the 13th oh yeah but if there isn't one before Halloween then bloody puffle be back meanwhile it's Sam I be saying I hope you liked your 4/20 show friends you can donate at the correct views a hotmail.com donate through PayPal and all the money you give to me goes towards a better show how did you like the 4/20 show hope you did oh yeah you wanted to know about the stems you can take your stems and put them in in the coffee maker just like regular coffee and put a filter under it of course and brew it you can do it more than once the THC holds for those of you that don't have a coffee maker you can take the Stephan's wash them off it helps it's not going to matter in a minute and then put them in the microwave in a coffee cup in just nuke it it's going to come out really strong you can add cinnamon honey or sugar to it either that or you can make really small amounts with the same amount of stems and it'll be really really tart when you drink it but you can do it like a shot and it will extract the THC from them and you will be lit up like the family Christmas tree good night friends god bless happy 4/20 oh yeah

Chandler Carruth: Refactoring C++ with Clang
so my name is gemma crew here from google touch a little bit about clank specifically about refactoring sequel's plus with play just first quick question how many folks here at her dance playing before all right how many folks you're asleep okay that's not what I think just checking okay so if you ever got flying for I'm sorry I can't help you should go you should go to learn about finding amazing tools but I'm going to be talking about something very specific and that's refactoring now you guys do know what refactoring it anyways not know what refactoring is okay good good that simplifies is talk so the real goal of refactoring simple questions to make Sable's plus a much more fun language right now c++ if you get annoying right is essentially surprising right so this plus has some pretty clear priorities right and you know it's really good at some of these things it's got a fantastic performance it's it's pretty good product productivity right it's got a lot of generic solutions it's got a lot of things and it's libraries it helped be productive but it also had some shortcomings and when you get down to fun things are a little bit more grim force equals plus equals plus is not the world's most fun language to write coding and we think that's something we can change we're gonna make this much more fun and exciting learning to write coded um and and you kind of see the fundamental problem if you've ever work in an open source community you've probably seen discussions like this right someone comes along this great new feature fantastic it's wonderful then there's some fancy personal mailing lists sometimes this is me right like actually jumping in saying like actually you've done it all wrong you need to go into reflow all your code you have to go ahead and fix a bunch of things and this is tedious right this is make work this isn't something interesting this isn't exciting or fun to go into Vedas and this is what you know kind of holds plus plus back though I think a lot of small annoying things yes I'm not talking about massive missing because we're talking about the small everyday in the latencies so there's a good way to solve these types of noises and those that's through tooling and automation I mean you know traditional approach to it so some of the things we want to get out of this are a lot of Matic code formatting and what that you want to make sure that all the code formatting busywork just vanishes from your life right renaming things you know moving things around these are very mechanical operations but they can be very painstaking and time-consuming to perform and it's really important we can perform them easily and quickly when we need to and we also want to support boilerplate generation right we want to be able to generate the structure in the form of the code the ceremony that has to go with something without you having to do a lot of work these are all really really important concepts to install through tooling an automation and that's those are the kinds of things we're looking to solve a plank now unfortunately this is not easy it is actually quite hard to solve the first problem we run you do when you do this is that there's a cross translation unit barrier here a lot of operations that we're talking about here they don't actually fit within a single translation unit a single file of code gotta have a broader perspective we've got to have you know infrastructure to handle that broader perspective in order for your tools to affect me we have to integrate with lots of build systems and editors all over the place at all differently I'll work ever so slightly differently right and you can't change these things a lot of people have tried to build C++ tools by saying well if you use our building system and our editor in our integrated development environment then you'll be able to have these facilities but that doesn't scale very well for the sequel posted all in community it's a very diverse community they have different tools different platforms different systems and frankly I never ever want to try to remove Emacs from anyone's hands okay I understand how morally that will go so we have to actually getting great with lots of different systems north this to be that compelling solution and also really fast as something people tend to overlook a slow tool is a useless tool the whole point of this was to make things fun and easy for programmers if they have to sit there waiting for their tool that undermines and undercuts every single thing you're trying to achieve so you have to have really good performance and these things kind of the challenges that you know crystallized uh the solution that we're building on top of climate so let's talk a little bit about that solution I just want to give you guys kind of high-level overview of the architecture we're building the platform we're building on top of plank to solve these problems you start with cut all of the things incline lots of talks have gone into the architecture climb okay I'm not going to repeat a lot of that here right I understand climbing is a modular modern sequel's plus compiler it has all the semantic analysis smell the other fun bits you would expect in a compiler on top of clang we're going to start building your libraries right library components that are specific to the two building tools or you have a tooling library that helps you with the very core infrastructure of building the tool and running a tool over code we have a refactoring library kind of encapsulate all of the the tricky parts of changing the piece of source code from one piece of textual representation to another and we also have something called the ast matchers and why this separate library is necessary is really not clear at first we're going to talk a lot more about the ast matchers throughout the lecture these are essentially how we navigate the structural representation of sequels present so when you tie all these together you get kind of the nail augmented clang platform right this is how we've augmented claims library platform to support building tools building refactoring tools and building an other kind of code analysis tools now on top of this platform we need to actually go one step further and build some integration layers right need ways to get your tool logic connected with the actual developer who's using the tool and these takes different forms that are really tailored to the different use cases we have the first one I want to talk about our plugins right then we plugins are not a new thing to compilers GCC actually is head plugins for about as long as crime has been able to parse equals plus good it's not really a new thing but they're really an important use case plugins handle these case when you want to augment the actual act of compilation it's not a separate tool that you want it's a tool that actually goes along with the compiler on every single compilation this is really useful if you have some form of you know static checking that is absolutely critical you can never allow this checking to be missed and so you want to tap on every single compile it's also useful if you have some formal language augmentation where you want to generate extra code or exhilarating time you compile with your source code now the second kind of paths of integrating an actual tool into the developer workflow is called Lib clang right now this is a C staple library the clang developers have built encapsulating a lot of the logic inside of this platform to try and allow external tools to link safely against the entire clang platform all right now Luke Lang is a sea library for ABI stability and for API stability and for inter language use cases it's really really nice if you have to do a foreign function interface you have to reach out from one language to another - bindings are built on top of Lib clang right the integration that happens inside of Xcode apples IDP is built on top of lip plane because it allows them to innovate with Objective C this makes for a really nice high level and very straightforward integration layer but it has one a very important presumption and that is that whatever tool is doing this integration whatever tool is linking in lips lagging is a blog lived entity right it's something that's going to actually running and keep running and keep running it is going to kind of be a monolith month with identity managing all of the clang operations going on now that fits perfectly with the IDE mod right and that's where it was developed for but there are other use cases that we need to support as well and that's why we're starting to build infrastructure around standalone tools okay these are tools that are not part of ninety they're not part of some integrated system instead they stand on their own they often take the form of command-line tools and they can be integrated independently and they can also be integrated into multiple different editors and development environments and those are really really important to us alright now that we've gotten this so first off questions about this platform I'm happy to take questions throughout the entire time everyone's just really happy so now we're going to talk about standalone tools okay and I'm going to spend most my time talk about stable under factoring tools because I think that's the most applicable people in this audience in particular we're going to take a case study and that is the idea of refactoring API and I don't mean refactoring in some of the senses that you might be familiar with from Mike Fowler's where you're trying to do extract method or simply renaming things but really deep refactorings the use case I want you to keep in mind imagine you're the author of a fantastic boost library it should be altar of a fantastic boost library from five years ago and unfortunately it is not aged well and you as a good citizen are trying to build a new library that has a much better interface based o lessons you've learned from the old interface but you have a problem you have a large body of programs out there they're using this old interface that are expecting that old interface to be maintained and supported for a long period of time but and you would like to move them onto your new interface that's the use case that I want you to keep in mind here the idea of API migration API updates because this is one of the most powerful things you can do on top of the standalone tool platform and it's something that there simply are no other alternatives out there for right there's really no other technology is going to allow you to do this today so is that I'm going to give you my my complete Stroman interface and I want to emphasize there have been several talks that have said this but it pairs keeping the code I have on a slide is designed to fit on a slide it is not designed to be representative okay imagine there's actually a complex and interesting interface here not a very silly interface like I'm using this is just useful for presentation okay so this is my interface right and here we have a base class which I am showing you but you can kind of figure out what it does it has a virtual methods called get right you get return something just not too surprising all right and you know I'm subclassing it and implementing it here all this seems perfectly reasonable makes sense seems like something's kind of sort of reasonable there's a problem with this gap the get name isn't really representative what this is this elements is trying to model some kind of container this doesn't tell me what element I've gotten out of it just says get some element and I'm not going to be much more explicit I might want to this to be Franklin's this is actually the first element in the container okay so now we have you know a bad API we'd like to transform into a good API make sense all right we'd like to build some automated system for doing this now when you go and start thinking about how to solve this problem the first thing we're going to need is we're going to need well we're going to a tool that does anything else so the first step is we need to understand that fundamental tooling library and how you can use it to build an actual tool that runs over your code and for that we're going to start diving into actual source code so when you go and you start writing on a tool using our library there's a really great framework available to try to make it easy to write simple and straightforward tools it provides all the kind of basic primitives you would expect when you're writing a program right we've got a command-line parsing library there are lots of other primitive libraries available as it's a nice and rich framework to start writing your programming and eventually you get your actual program and it's going to start looking something like this and I'm going to I'm going to try and step through every component of this program and this really is this is the end of program okay and we're going to explain how all these pieces come together to build an actual refactoring tool okay the very first thing we do right is we we parse out command-line options that's nothing fancy but this lets us you know configure and set up our entire system and then we're going to do a probably the most fundamental part of the tooling infrastructure library that we die to be claimed and that is to build up this ideal the compilation database okay this is an LVM weird fake unique pointer I don't know why they decided not to you know model it on the real one player so we're building up a compilation database and we're doing that by loading a directory and what this loading of a directory means is we're actually to go we're going to find directory where you built your project right the actual build tree of your project and we're going to look in that directory for artifacts left over by the build system they tell us how to compile your source code you don't know how to compile your source code we can't analyze your source code can't analyze your source code we can't refactor it so we've got to actually go and kind of mind the build system for this information and the way we do this we've actually gone in and modified build systems to produce a generic and independent protocol for telling tools like this about how your compilations proceed so we modified see make as kind of a prototype we modify to see make to when when you build your project it drops out a JSON database of the compilation should take place and it looks something like this it has the directory in which the compilation took place the command used to actually do the compilation and what file is being compiled right very very straightforward it allows us to kind of map a source file to a particular compilation let's figure out how to run the compilation and how to actually understand your source code just make sense questions about compilation database everybody get wonderful alright so once we've got this compilation database we've loaded it up we understand how to compile your source code right we get it through and we we build a refactoring tool refactoring tool is just going to be kind of the driver going to manage going off running all claims infrastructure compiling the source code that's necessary building a STS and running your tool over alright and so what what really important here are these magic dots we have some magic dots here and here we need to fill in those dots nor to have a tool but this is the skeleton alright this is the tooling library skeleton but all of the standalone tools fit in to make sense okay let's start fleshing out the skeleton since we do need some magic in here and the important magic that we need is how do we actually navigate the structure of a program find the entity that concerns us and construct a refactoring to the desired in result right that's that's the magic that we left out here so we're going to step through that magic now one of the important things is that it turned out you tried to write these tools by hand actually doing the refactoring rewriting source code to have a different string of text was remarkably easy we did that in one day okay there's nothing interesting to it it's text processing we know how to do text processing that's not the hard part the hard part is actually the structural manipulation of the existing code finding the exact right part of your program to manipulate and transform the refactoring and so that's what we spent a lot of time line and that's what I really call the magic this entire system and that magic is kind of encapsulated in this idea of an AST match your library now this library forms a library of predicates over clangs ast s right it's a predicate library over cleanse ast we formulated as a predicate library so that we can build up a very large predicate without actually looking at any source code at all and then we can hand it off to the infrastructure which runs it over the source code and actually an optimized way finds places been structurally match and it calls back to your actual code to handle it the predicate library makes it much easier to compose all the things you're trying to match structurally without having to do it in a kind of process right you know if you if you listen to Sean talk this morning right we don't want loops we'd only be looping over data structures we can actually express this entire thing as an algorithm okay so to explain how this predicates library works because it's probably the most complex part of this entire system I'm going to walk through a very simplified example and show you how we kind of build up these predicates so the codes think I'm going to walk through here is just four statements right we've got an assignment method call different method call other assignment now clearly the thing we're looking for is what we've got outlined in green here right we want to find the get call on one of these elements containers so let's see how we do that the first step is we're going to build up the kind of most primitive matcher we might want for this particular example we look for calls okay when you look for calls are going to find a lot of things we didn't want so everything that's green would actually be matched here throughout this entire example everything that's green is going to be back by the predicate that I have built up here we need to restrict this further the way we start restricting this is actually we need to narrow the domain of our predicate so this doesn't actually remove any of these matches but it allows us to write more predicates about this component of what we've matched the calling alright so make some sense so now we can add a predicate on that call you can say this collie has to be a method not just a function and immediately the global function falls out of the set of matched entities right now our only matching methods okay let's let's add another predicate it's not just method to method it has a particular name that name is get okay now we've narrowed it a bit further so we're closing in on that other thing we want but now we've hit you so up until now we've been in regular expression length right this is what you might possibly do with text processing but now I need to write inquiry which has no textual basis because the only way to distinguish these two is in the type system right and so we have to get more interesting so again we're going to create a scope for narrowing our predicate so we're going to focus a predicate under this pointer type right once we focus on that this pointer type we can fill in a predicate that actually pins exactly the thing we're looking for we want it to be a class and one to be a class which is derived from element space make sense yes are we really looking for the call or the method itself I mean we're gonna get there we're going to get there for this example we're looking at the call but yeah certainly there are more things you need to look for if you haven't use method there um it would actually imply that it's a method I'm trying to show matchers yeah you can call the rectus more dead so other questions yes yes there are namespace matches you can actually use a qualified names here and if there's any qualifiers in it we actually run some of claims code over the text once you give it and we look for qualified name syntax we find that we asked for the qualified name and we enforce a more strict match if you give an unqualified write due to a looser match there are lots of different ways to composes yes is there any dependency on the order of the pretty good these are in dependency on the order of the predicate um there is in a sense um so you don't you can't see it here eventually you'll be able to see it because we have combining predicates like any of or all up and with any of the order actually matters because this one be first match wins and that can be very important because some matches have different effects from other matches and we're going to see how that can actually play into things when there is an or constraint its first match wins but the way these are applied because we're building a predicate it's applied holistically the entire predicate has to match a particular note in the ast or it doesn't match yes so on then get about your your source code example in this is derived from element space means it wouldn't catch the definition of I'm so glad you asked that question Marshall and turns out that we don't use a a strictly derives from definition we actually include a is derived from we actually defined this predicate to specifically say is derived from or is equal to because every single person that wanted is derived from wanted to match space class and took us quite a while to find a single person who wanted to not match base class and actually that that's easier to do with an additional predicate oh yeah you can just say ng is not yeah yes it's very odd actually that's exactly how it is face up in the standard page yeah it was they built this by looking at his face up yes good argument types just just there are a lot more matches here I can't go into all the managers here yes you can go in I'm going to show you some more complex matters for the end other questions yes that's a good question it's actually a function name um we wanted it to be a type name but it's very hard to use in tightening for this because we actually want to do on tight deduction and so we make all of these functions and then they return objects which then build up into a tree structure that we can optimize and hand to the match or later other questions oh right so we've got some magic now let's go and use this magic to actually implement the rest of our tool so we're not only going to where we had that magic that ellipsis we're going to plug in our magic here before you plug it in we have something to plug it into things here what's called a match finder this actually holds all of the trees of natural predicates that are active in the system and we need a callback and this was going to be called coal renamer is a little collec to actually do something when we discover a match okay this is visit that action we're going to get to see what the definition of this looks like then we add a matcher we give it the fence the exact match that we wrote up right and we give it the call that so that we can actually take action when this happens okay so now we've got a matcher here so now our main function is essentially complete right we've handed this this Mac finder into the the tooling infrastructure when we do this here this will actually go and run the matcher over all the ASDs in each of the different translation units and collect all the results sound good so far fairly happy all the way so what does this renamer doing so the renamer is is the callback and the callback it has one interesting role here right so first of all the guys are kind of expected things right you have a virtual function right and this is this has an interface that we expect because we don't have lambdas right so we design this point over lambdas otherwise this would get much much simpler and it accepts this weird result object all right this result object contains information about the ast node which was matched and one can we discovered was that if we just if we just passed the node in here you end up having to write a whole pile of boilerplate code inside of your callback in order to extract the various different components of that subtree of the asp in fact you had to write all the exact code we didn't want you to write and we built the matchers to avoid because this you actually the same problem in extracting information as you do in identifying the interesting information and so in order to populate this with a lot more interesting results we actually need to take a step back to our our matcher and add some additional information and in this extra predicate here that we need to add so as an extra predicate on the colleague we add a bound matcher so the ID here this will match anything it just matches anything that its sub matcher matches but it associates it with a name in this case member right this allows us to really put build up the data structure of each individual interesting part of the tree that we matched okay and this gets back to your order question the only place where order really matters is here because if you if you have an any out of matter if you're taking the first one of several different options only the one we actually take has its nodes bound to the to the maintenance and so that can matter but it's very very unusual most the time the order doesn't matter making some sense they we have to do this okay now let's look at how this actual callback is implemented okay so this is this is the callback it's going to go through and replace the tip the taxi that's this is I think my favorite part of the framework because it was so if you had this on day one and it just works you pull out the node right and this is looking up that bound node we had by it by its name and then you add in a replacement you have to craft some boilerplate around and this is a blob of text this is a blob of code that just gets the exact range of characters that make up that name of the function in the member expression makes sense replace it anger done yes and yes whenever replace on picking let's back up a little bit so the replace object is something we pass into the callback right you can struck the callback with it back up still further we pass it out of the tool so the tooling infrastructure provides this replacement its object right and this is an object that kind of advocates together edits to files keeps track of all of them over time after all of the edits have been you know computed it goes back over all the files applies the edits in one pass it detects conflicts so one of the tricky parts of this is what happens when you have two edits and they actually overlap in the text where they modify each other well what if they don't actually overlap in the text they just seem to overlap in the text right this can get this can get into really hairy problems with macro expansions and so the replacement object has a lot of smarts to actually understand the different replacements that you're giving it to reject any edits to the source code that have problems log errors of you actually have a good point you can find macro calls of this oh yes absolutely or I can also search the code poser expansion so so alright it's a good question it brief side so the way clang partisan source code as as its lexing all the source code builds up a source location data structure and the source location data structure consists of a very small key into a tree an expansion tree for where that particular piece of code came from and this keeps track of each layer of macro expansion keeps track of both where that macro is expanded to and where the text that made up that expansion was written in a file right and you can actually walk both direct close Pertino directions of this independently iteratively it even keeps track of how macro arguments are expanded first into the macro definition and then that expand in fact whether it's used so yes you can reconstruct any of the various layers of information you want and your replacer will actually replace the method call inside a macro definition yes precisely other questions yes and the most recent ruling to be able to interactive inner iteratively build up these match notices I'm building them I see my match easily this is the this is the single most requested feature we don't have it yet um well why not because it's hard to write um we have a prototype for it it has some unfortunate trade-offs for example the prototype isn't typesafe the mattress looking you don't notice when you look at this you can't just put any predicate here call is very attic but it accepts a particular type as its argument and the set of things which actually produce having a predicate object of a compatible type is restricted so that you actually get static type checking for each layer of this predicate and then that's really really important for caching just completely means those predicates early and all of the dynamic systems that people built don't actually have that and right now the best idea for how to build one is to use clang itself actually build one by running over the implementation of the ast matchers you haven't gotten to beta it's a lot of work had several questions look we finished the ast ones yeah okay just in general how much well is fun it's pretty well-documented but nozzle to chummy all of these different parts they have lots and lots of comments most of the documentation and comments we're working on actually building proper documentation but this is this is relatively new but the past six months we've been working on moving this from a research project to part of the open source client project and so that's been our primary focus we're actually now starting to write proper documentation for it because it landed with your first product so documentation is actively being added go on macros but you have to think about every situation we're trying to replace gilfer on the face Madame aquata says do get x/x opiates and i collette mark or sometimes four steps so when you in fact it was going to happen that depends there are a lot there a lot of options there so one of the things we can do is we can actually detect when you're inside of a macro expansion and prevent rewriting the macro definition the other thing that we are looking at doing is actually rejecting edits when a subsequent recompile finds compilation errors and so we would edit the macro definition and we try them piling it again you reject it because you know other people other places aren't using the same interface and we'd like okay that edits that there are a lot of options for how we handle that as an option to just run them again that's always an option but you'd have to actually write explicit logic to do that we don't do that automatically because there are a lot of cases where that's not the right choice so essentially what we're trying to do is once you hit macros and you have these things we don't want to have a too much in the way of default behavior we instead want to kind of you know like we have very simple default behavior that's easy to explain if you want something more complex here the tools yes quickly so this creates a expression template essentially yes and it must conform to a certain grammar yes so we use bouche brutal if you want to apply is because it's not it's not expression to learn more traditional sense it one of the one of the interesting things is it's actually very easily implemented by using non templated implementations because all the credits are doing essentially the same thing they just have slightly different parameter ization and so it's not I don't know that it would be a perfect fit for this program but also with other people writing this new proof yes is there also an engine oil Sega could you compose expressions for the nature like looking for a call or yes there's a any of a tan all of which are kind of combining and there are a lot more batteries I a kick with all the mattress there were hundreds of match or credits and they compose that's a whole different topic anyways I want to keep going so I've got some more really fun examples want to get to alright so we've written this is done the rewrite now as someone mentioned we don't want to just match calls we're going to need another mattress this is the other half of the magic and this is matching declarations of this method right you've walked through it really quickly here we will want to match a method which has a name again it's a method of a class which is derived from element base make sense bloody hard to follow yes ending is to define your beanie it's a more yeah this is interesting thing so we're adding this to the same finder you can add as many predicates as you want to find her each one is matched independently and the call that fires independently and this is particularly nice because you often are matching in separate domains for example one was a matcher over expressions this one's over declarations they're never collide you just want to do all them at the same time it's a really big efficiency way alright so this one has a problem that looks a little bit different but not very much different the only difference is here is we have a different type coming out of the result and we have a different expression to compute the actual range and if we were actually writing this and we actually cared about this clearly the fact that these out because this is a really trivial thing to abstract away sound good alright so that actually is all there is and I have actually a live demo that I'll show you to have time but I'm running a little bit low in time and a live demo of this it does work all those codes checked in but I also want to show you guys what a real matcher for a real problem looks like these are a little bit contrived so this is a real matcher a tool we built and this tool is actually I think one of my favorite tools what it does is it looks at your code and it looks for places where you have an expression right in this expression um calls the see stir a member function on a string object and the result of that is then passed into a context that accepts a string object right it's just really easy to do if you know at one point you refactor one part your code you switch to certain stood straight and then you guys Auto piastres that other code that's old and still speaks it's a karas are applied Caesar done right and then you know two months later some other person comes along reach back to the other side I do change this interface except us and string well nothing like it still compiles just fine but WoW is that a waste right right now like like copying data everywhere running sterling over it the worst part is sometimes this has different behavior you have null characters in your string you get a different result all right so we built a tool to go into TechEd all this and to actually rewrite it to just pass the string object through this found thousands of instances of this pattern in our code base alright we read it over clanging all the O's code it's a relatively small project right and it found about 50 instances of it just in that project alone okay so this is like humans are bad at spotting this right piece it works okay so what this does is it goes through it says okay we want to find a constructor call alright and the constructor call is a string constructor right it has students the to argue with formulas Reconstructor the first argument is a call of a member which is a which is a see string method and these are just string constants that we you know wasted out here and it's on some some arguments a margin expression and the second argument is actually the default argument the user didn't write it right because you know you have to be very careful here it's a two argument form of the constructor and it's not valid to replace any cases whether the person actually passes an alligator it right so we catch that in the only in so many fires when the default arguments use second what yeah so you can actually match against implicit calls yes and that is a key realization we've had when we presented this to a bunch of people they immediately said like oh come on I don't want to write this giant predicate what I want to write is C++ code but with patterns in it and then just like pattern match it against the code and find things this there have been several systems implemented in this form James Gosling wrote a really impressive one for Java while use the Sun lots of other people have played with this the problem with it is it doesn't work well in matching the implicit constructs in C++ you start having to invent pattern grammars to match implicit constructs it gets really complex the sequel toaster is already too complex actually writing out an explicit creditor seems to be easier than coming up with patterns so that is one of the key things all right so this is a real matcher right and if you want to go and write tools you can now everything I've showed you is open source it's all available it actually builds and works you can get it today it's all in a branch of the client project we're slowly merging all that into the main line there's only one piece that's left in the branch and those two ast matchers I also make sure that we have some of these examples checked in and actually building it available in the branch so the the rename that I walked through is actually checked in I can go to look at it and go read the code has lots of comments that help you understand this stuff that I kind of glossed over here and the C sir removal on the actual ceased removal is here as well there's a lot more to this one this one has lots of other logic to detect other patterns other weird you know constructs so feel free to go and pull these up you can check out this branch of clang is just a straight branch of the claim repository build it try it out let me know if you have problems and by the time if you get like five minutes you guys want questions or live demo here rerun your sister tool for data um we should actually okay so first thing I want to be clear about you guys see this all right yeah all right so what I have here is a dummy CMake project alright it's really really boring so apparently I have like some code let's show you the code real briefly so these are the actual source files they're really really boring there is nothing interesting going on here right we define some gap functions different translation units we actually call them from other translation units right there operator overloads and other things in here not that any of that really matter and yeah we have the have the header files sure again really really boring I can show these in more detail if you want but I think that's the interesting part so first off let's make sure this builds builds right and you can run it program runs prints out 42 and all the places we expected to go now go up to my little tool okay so this is rename method I just built it in my clang LVM client on the side so I run it it's going to go and process all these files all right I like the accomplished image - yes so so you can see the compilation database if you want right that's a compilation database for the same and now so this is a I already put this in get specific so I can run get def so now you can see we've replaced all the declarations would get the front we catch ones I wanted to point out here know that we catch this right this was a this is actually a member expression on get but there's no member here again we're able to match the implicit this arrow that shows up there and handle it in the exact same code paths as we pay know anything else right if you go and replace the virtual one in the base class get all this stuff and the demo replace all the calls to it and if I go over and wipe demo gods are with me at store thousand runs so all right and I have like three minutes for questions we got some questions we've got a pin up first so if you have a say you have a template that was only being stand shaded for the cruise and it was calling yet we're did find a replacement then what about the case for the templates to instantiate sometimes twos and sometimes for something totally unrelated um it's great cause like the macro case now it matters yeah the Mac user met with macros um I actually think we handle that one better we actually specifically don't met modify the template it cuz in the template it's not it's not for you it's for an instantiation and on the template parameter but again in all the situations where you have these kind of you know dual concerns what we have to do is we have to back off and let you let the the programmer pick one and you can you can find out whether what you have what you're looking at is a typical situation or not and I'm going to make a decision based on that and you can even write stuff so one of the things we've definitely seen written is people write two sets of predicates one which matches outside of template instantiation and one which matches specifically inside it implements an XI Asians and tracks whether or not there are competing and template instantiations from some other type if you flag those and then actually say okay these are the safe templates these the dangerous templates you can outdated something so he's right if you can actually handle that so is the other explicit disambiguate errs inside so you can say for example I bet you two eight one is that I pop at the dialogue um no it's not an interactive tools right now instruction in tile is a batch tool but you can essentially write kind of in in your actual natural logic you can you can back to them apart and handle it in separate runs we just don't we just don't have it's not structured interactive and it'd be hard to do because one of the things we want to do is we want to be able to run this in mini threads on your machine and we actually really like to be able to farm it out if you have like a dizzy C cluster if it has a client sitting around on it one of the things we'd like to see we can do is actually farm it out to your your estranged build system so that even if you have tens and tens of thousands of files you can still actually do these types of operations so I can't they actually add my own code for example to a place where I don't that they're just called ass right pull ups you guys so any like a time I didn't they fall back yeah I know you don't have a Windows second but could be factored into it um that requires parsing the windows code which has its own set of problems which is a long sort of story but there's the impromptus bus good I mean C++ code it is strict standard C++ and uses no windows go gadget works in fact a guided like so so this is built jointly between two teams one in California one in Munich and the guy in Munich possession done the lion's share of the work here he actually implemented the rename tool last night on Windows and what tested it out on business so yes it does work had one thing I noticed that implying is when there are variations on the variable naming standard and then ICU commitment basis it will you be using this to make a normalizer for the client code base um that's a great question a lot of people - that's but that we want to do on coding and convention stuff and that's actually pretty high on the list of things to work on coding kovitch normalization was one of the real the next things at the back I saw hand yeah I'm going to ask for something completely unreasonable I want something that he texts stuff that could be context for it makes them that's very easy to write Wow okay it's not reasonable at all so personal my team richard smith has an intern i'm planning on writing a set of tools to detect code that could be shifted to C++ 11 patterns beneficially and provided essentially a suite of stand-alone tools for that verbs okay so yeah so all gonna be ready in four loops right choice for Lucas context would actually use context or technique quake periodic statues

hello everyone and welcome back to video number one where we're going to be looking at the extinction of species so this is kind of like the um the background of extinction um within individual species as well as a little bit of the history of thought regarding extinctions and as you can tell from my cover slide i'm a big fan of gustav dormi so you know if you ever want some nice wood cuts of biblical scenes gustav dory good place to look so without further ado let's move onwards and let's go first look at who first identified extinction so i wanted to put this slide in this is my bit on the history of evolutionary thought essentially because extinction was not thought to exist throughout many of our early scientific scientific endeavors so um if you know about the enlightenment this is the period of time when people started turning to evidence and reason as a basis for kind of naturalistic explanations of the world geology as a topic was being born hand-in-hand with paleontology and at this point most scientists in europe and america still believe that the natural world was complete full and perfect as created by god so even though we had this kind of um rationalistic movement towards um towards trying to understand the world i have a feeling based on my reading that there wasn't this widespread um feeling uh that that applied to um to extinction essentially to the to the fossil record and so within that world view no species ever became extinct because such an event event would destroy the perfection of nature right and so um it took the world a while really to um costing on to the existence of extinction and this happened through the work of a number of people but the person i'm going to be introducing to you today is georges cuvier this handsome chap on the left here who lived from 1769 to 1832. so this was during that enlightenment period um and he was a voice of um of essentially um of logic and reason i suppose during this time period who established extinction through study of natural world he was a french naturalist and zoologist he was based in paris and during his life as i've mentioned the existence of extinct species was frequently questioned by many scientists he however showed that this must have occurred and he demonstrated this by using a thing called comparative anatomy in particular he did this uh looking at vertebrates the example that's shown on the right here is um his study of elephant anatomy that showed that not only do african and indian elephants the bottom image here is an example of a jaw of a living indian elephant differ from each other so they should be considered different species identified that these are different species of elephants but he also recognized as part of this work the fossil mammoths a jaw bone of one of these is shown on the top here of europe and siberia were different from either living elephant species the implication of that discovery given that mammoths are no longer around must therefore be that the um the mammoth species have gone extinct and george cuvier published study after study documenting the past existence of large mammals that resemble no living species and by doing so he helped embed the idea that extinction exists i think it's of note that he suggested that extinctions could be due to periodic catastrophic floods this placed him as a key proponent of an idea called catastrophism this is kind of often contrasted to the idea of uniformitarianism so uniformitarianism is the idea that things that happened today happened in the same way in the past whereas catastrophism is the idea that the um these are kind of um punctuated by um sudden changes in environment in environments and these were two at the time seen as fairly mutually exclusive ideas that kind of battled it out over many years over the development of geology um and indeed we have a far more nuanced view of that today as we'll be getting onto in the later videos in this series but just bear in mind that was one area that he had quite a lot of say so along with his idea of extinctions he had this idea of large catastrophes and certainly the idea that single species went extinct was accepted by most people following his work and his publications relatively quickly so we now know that extinction happens all the time okay species have a natural duration of anything from a few thousand years to a few million and so they live for a time and they disappear this could be due to a wide range of different causes that we're going to be looking at later in this particular video but the examples i've chosen to put on this slide are examples where organisms species have gone extinct due to the activities of man so my example on the left here is the famous dodo a ground-dwelling relative of the pigeons his extinction resulted from the impact of man through both hunting although i believe that contemporary accounts of the dodo suggested they didn't taste particularly good so that's a bit of a kick in the teeth in terms of the hunting but also through invasive species on the island of mauritius so man's activities made this particular species of bird go extinct so we recognize now as i mentioned there is a pattern of normal background extinction and this will often happen without any broad-scale cause one could argue that man is a broad-scale cause but in many cases looking back into the fossil record species will just go extinct and there could be many reasons for that but they won't necessarily be uh ones that we can identify looking at the fossil record this doesn't happen i wanted to highlight as my other example in this slide um in uh you know globally at once what we tend to see is a thing called exterpation this is localized extinctions in a particular area and this occurs before the complete extinction of the species so this could be viewed as the species may have a fairly big range and then that contracts prior to their extinction and in any of these areas um which aren't um where they're contracting towards that will appear like a localized extinction in the fossil record that will appear as the extinction of that species if we don't have rocks from where they're still living but that's actually a thing called extirpation so extinction rarely happens globally in one place my example of this is shown on the right and i think this is a really good example so this is a rocky mountain locust this little guy here really handsome chap an orthopedic insect and this is a really good example of how ranges can reduce before a species eventually dies out so this locust is particularly interesting because it coalesced into swarms which were really really large swarms of this rocky mountain locust consumed 50 tons of vegetation a day in 1875 this fish species formed the largest locust swarm in recorded history it was an aggregation of around 3.5 trillion insects it formed 110 mile wide 1800 mile long aerial river of insects that eclipsed the sun's sun for five days as it passed overhead according to accounts of the time so this is a really really um impressive um pattern uh that we see within this particular insect however between uh these swarms these drought-driven upsurges the locusts actually were treated into the mount rocky mountains shown here in the middle these are the extent of the swarms but their home is is around here in the rocky mountains um where they generally lived most of their life in fertile mountain so mountain based river valleys this was what we would call a tight ecological bottleneck and it also happens to be areas of land that pioneers were converting to agricultural production um by the early late 1800s and early 1900s that decimated the breeding ground of this insects and they were extinct by 1902 so between 1875 and 1902 um the uh behavior and the habitat changes driven by humans has led from this being a insect that could swarm over many parts a significant proportion of the us to one that was going extinct so that's an example of species extinction so let's give it a definition and you can see i've put a definition on the slide here extinction is the irreversible condition of a species or other group of organisms of having no living representatives in the wild which follows the death of the last surviving individual of that species or group extinction may occur on a local or global level more broadly we can say that a species is functionally extinct when all interbreeding populations have been eliminated or a population is small enough that it is no longer viable so while our definition that i've just given you says extinction occurs when the last thing dies um before that point we may be able to identify that a species is essentially functionally extinct is not going to survive the example that i've put on this slide which is a very sad one is sudan this is the last male northern white rhino dying being comforted by a guy called joseph akira one of the people that was looking after him and sudan died in march 28 2018 he was the last representative of this particular subspecies of rhino and it was an extinction has been caused by poaching since the 1970s so this is our example this picture um i guess is uh records the point at which this particular group of rhinos goes extinct so if we're thinking about this in terms of kind of the broad sweep of life and its history on earth we can say that between five and 50 billion species have lived on earth big error bars on that it's an estimate so take it for what it's worth there are 5 to 15 million species alive today most estimates would suggest this means that if you think about it 99.9 of all species that have ever lived are now extinct okay species have been lost either through perturbations imposed on them from the outside these are things that we would call extrinsic causes for um of extinction so these could be biotic or abiotic or extinction could result from evolutionary changes within the members of a species these are what we would call call intrinsic causes so extrinsic from outside intrinsic from inside obviously these two different types of causes of extinction can and do interact we should also note that extinction isn't really thought to be random much of the time for example it appears to be um phylogenetically nested so um things that are more closely related to each other um if one of those goes extinct other um place related organisms are more likely to go extinct than in other areas of the tree of life a useful way to kind of think about this and to identify why this may be the case is that there are factors um which dictate extinction risk within any n within any area of the tree of life so for example we know that body size may well have an impact on extinction risk there is some evidence that larger body sizes in mammals for example increase extinction risk and there's also evidence in other groups that extremes of body size either if you're really small or really large make you far more likely to go extinct it's fairly well uh documented the specialization makes you more likely to go extinct so for example if you specialize towards a narrow temperature range or a specific fey item that increases your risk of extinction um so that kind of makes sense right if you are specialized for one particular um temperature and there is a global climatic shift it may be that your species range no longer exists or it moves to a different area where you're in competition with different organisms and therefore you're more likely to go extinct you can compare specialism to generalism there are some organisms that are just fairly good at living wherever you put them a typical example people tend to think of is the cockroach and certainly pest cockroach species species that we have in in say towns and cities can survive by eating virtually anything unlike the panda on the left here my example of a specialist which is specialized towards eating bamboo um so that has quite a limited um diet unlike that modern cockroaches can survive by eating electrical insulation so that gives them a far wider range of things they can eat survive if they need to then they're generalists another thing another kind of intrinsic um kind of uh part of the of a particular area of the tree of life could be reproductive rate so low rates of reproduction increase the risk of um of something going extinct bear in mind of course the reproductive rate is linked to both body size which is another risk factor and population density and the pander is another good example of this furthermore um the range size is a good is um linked to the risk of extinction within groups so um species with small geographic ranges are more likely to go extinct the top of this image on the right here you can see the concentration of mammal species with limited geographic ranges and on the bottom you can see the concentration of threat and mammal species and you can see that those two do to a degree coincide because the smaller ranges the the more likely you are to go extinct and we should bear in mind when we're thinking about the extinction of species as we have been talking about that the extinction of one species is likely to have knock-on effects within the ecosystem in which it lives and that includes further extinctions there's an ecological concept the idea of a keystone species this is a species which has a disproportionately large effect on an ecosystem relative to its abundance and the knock-on effect of those going extinct those keystone species is likely to be particularly large an extreme form of um of this kind of this impact this knock-on effect is when coexist co-extinction occurs so for example if you are a predator specializing on a particular prey item and that item goes extinct or for example you are a plant relying on a particular pollinator and that goes extinct or you're a parasite and you're parasitizing a large organism if that goes extinct this is likely to be a bad time for your species so the extinction of that related species um i shouldn't say related not um that ecologically rather than phylogenetically related species is likely to spell the end of the existence of your species you can't survive as a parasite without a host as a plant without your pollinator or as a predator without your particular prey item in many cases think the avocados are a particularly neat example of this which i wanted to put into this lecture because i learned it this world right in the lecture and it's really cool it's been suggested that avocados um you can see an example of one of these here have you ever thought about why they have this massive stone the seed in the middle what is the point of having a seed that is so large that the majority of creatures can't eat it right it doesn't make sense generally seeds are there to be eaten by mammals um or birds or other organisms that can um can then distribute it and um while they're digesting the fruit um they will eventually um kind of uh evacuate to the seed leave it in a nice pile of fertilizing manure for you and that's providing a useful function but that makes no sense if your seed is so big that things can't eat it which seems to be the case in avocados well it's actually been suggested that this is a specialization towards um ground sloths which used to be um around in the americas and were there along with a number of other members of the pleistocene megafauna were eating avocados and spreading these massive seeds obviously a lot of these extinct organisms that were very very large were capable of eating these very large seeds these are now extinct and indeed if it weren't for the fact that we farm avocados they would probably be at risk of extinction because seed dispersal by living species is not really possible anymore so we're looking at this situation where the seed spreader has gone extinct but the specializations towards that seed spreader are surviving within this particular crop which is really interesting so i wanted to finish by looking at the extreme the kind of factors that can cause extinction and i wanted to start with extrinsic factors and indeed i think i'll probably for this um for the purposes of this lecture only focus on these so extrinsic factors factors that cause extinctions include habitat habitat degradation or destruction this is when a habitat becomes incapable of supporting its native species so think about that today that's largely driven by human activities we're changing a lot of environments and driving the organisms that are in those into extinction predation and disease can cause extinctions um so predators and pathogens evolve and if a species does not keep up does not manage to evolve to um to meet that threat um those those threats can threaten the survival of that species right so there's this constant arm race this idea of the red queen that we met in the first video set of videos that i did for you of co-evolution of these things climate change can cause extinction this happens throughout earth history it changes the range of organisms and can then drive those organisms and those species into extinction as their ranges become either increasingly small or um it brings them into contact with other species which with which they have to compete invasive species um are a significant driver of mass extinctions especially today this occurs if a species that is not native to a specific location is introduced so this can either be through natural causes such as plate tectonics that's happened multiple times over the history of animal life certainly on the continents of the earth but also through anthropogenic activities two examples of the latter are shown uh on this slide here so on the left here you can see the asian hornet which was identified for the first time in the uk in 2016. this creature well it's looks beautiful on this slide is a voracious predator of honeybees and other insects and so its introduction here is a significant worry for our native insects um the other example here is the eastern grey squirrel this was deliberately released into the wild in great britain in 1876 the species carries a pox virus to which the native red squirrel is particularly susceptible as such as a result of this introduction red squirrels have now been essentially wiped out across britain with few remaining in england or wales there are some strongholds and further the further north but the impact of the the introduction of the species over the course of 100 years has been quite significant well i suppose 125 145 years either way that's relatively quick on geological time scales ironically now in parts of the uk a melanistic so black form of the eastern grey squirrel is now driving the grey form out so that's particularly true in for example cambridge here where black squirrels are now becoming more common than grey scrolls today many of these extrinsic factors are driven by human activity and we'll be learning a lot more about that in the final video um of today's series so that is the extinction of species i hope it was interesting i accept it was a bit depressing especially that thing about sudan paul sedan um and we'll get on to mass extinctions in our next video i'll see you in a minute

Hi Florida...So The Atonement
okay so having a little discussion with my friend Florida Line Flor Florida Line Point number one that first video was not a fail it was a success it was a Triumph it was a brilliant concise easily understandable theological Triumph okay the atonement uh I will try to do this as simply as possible the atonement Jesus Christ is 100% man as a man he is he is going to be a representative of all Humanity now I've heard Richard's Dawkins talk about you know the Old Testament God is one of the most unpleasant characters in all of literature and actually that's not a bad Richard Dawkins you may think it is but it is not so I have heard Richard Dawkins say say that not understanding the Theology of the Old Testament or the Bible in general atheists love to point out Old Testament God really means spirited they misunderstand what is going on in the Old Testament we have a righteous God meets sinful man this is the theology behind it it does not go well why does it not go well well half to time God is dealing out smiting on sinful man they cannot interact because we have holy God and sinful man and they do not get along and most of the reason they do not get along is that God in his righteousness must punish iniquity whenever whever and whenever he finds it people misunderstand eye for eye tooth for tooth they misunderstand what that means they say oh it means evil blood God of Judea whatever no it means there is no such thing as moral TR transgression without moral consequence that's what it means an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth every moral transgression that is committed in this world requires consequence punishment if you will so God has a problem he's got to deal out smiting because people are sinful so he's got to deal out some some some hard times on the people well why is that a problem because in his mercy and his love for Humanity he doesn't really want to he wants to let us off the hook so he finds a solution I God am really really mad at the sin that people commit but I God am also very loving and merciful so I am perfectly righteous I must punish sin wherever I find it but I'm also perfectly loving and forgiving so what's my solution I got it I will send my son as a representative for all of humanity who is also 100% man and mysteriously me that's the part where you're getting confused it is it is me God I the father am sending me my son who is 100% man to stand in for everybody else Jesus says if it if it is possible take this cup from me what cup the cup of God's Wrath poured out on sinful man Jesus goes on the cross so God can pour out his wrath on him Jesus Christ so he can let me Craig and you hopefully Go free see I do things that are sinful maybe even this morning you know I did this that and the other thing maybe not but maybe I did God doesn't want to smite me because he realizes that I'm weak and I'm incapable of righteous action because I am a human I am not perfect I'm close but I'm not there so he devises a solution and pours out all of his righteous indignation on Jesus Christ the son of God God In the Flesh but also 100% man so you're you're pretending like there isn't mystery in this there is

Over hill & dale I heard her wail, so through misty field & sheep I walked
a misty misty morning and i fed the sheep earlier but i'm coming out to look at their hay and i could hear the distinct calling of a sheep and i think we all know which yo it is who's stuck in the fence everyone else is fine they were all lying down until they saw me now they're beginning to get up yeah you can hear the stress stressed call of a stuck yeah it's a very very misty morning maya leave her alone leave them alone very very in lamb yes look at how heavy she is there's quite a few of them are very heavy in lamb now i'll have to look at the hay as well because it's gonna rain tonight huh you can see the dark smudge of wool of i'd say it is ebony that's the only yo i think it is ink is coming with me yeah your pathetic calls i could hear you in the garden in the garden there was i was doing some planting of some hellebores and digging up some worms so i had a robin fight robins were fighting over some worms that i dug up i must have been digging on the border of two different territories so there you are and i know you were at breakfast this morning because i counted you and i saw you look at you yeah she hasn't been here too long only one poop there we go one-handed yeah aegis and she's going right back into the wall again look at that right back in now somebody has said well why didn't i make put up a fence that has smaller holes in it the problem with that smaller holes is that rabbits and hair and other wildlife can't get through look at her she's putting brambles in her face she's just likes eating the wildlife the wild plants in amongst this is the old stone wall there's the road so will i be hearing from you again when you get stuck again i'll be in the garden yeah having a pee anyway there we go

Fast Update! No frills
kind of very quick update had a bit of a disaster my phone of five years it's an s6 plus note 5 and the doohickey this was my office in the pocket but more than that they had a really good camera and most of my shots including with a stabilizer that I now have but most of my shots over the last three years were taken by this we've also got a GoPro but there's some issues with it particularly the microphone and sound is already a problem and I've got this tripod camera which is real good but it's it's a big contraption you can't be taking it out walking around the streets this you've got in your pocket if you see something interesting you pull it out you take it it just died it's been getting hotter and hotter and hotter this is the sealed case they don't do it anymore I guess but they thought it was a good idea they wanted to be like Apple sealed case you can't change the battery you can't actually get in it for repairs from what I understand but what happened was this thing got so hot that it was like it came out of an oven I mean it was like oh my god I threw it in the freezer I didn't want it to explode but it's gone so I don't know what I'm gonna do about this but to top it off I was just bragging about how my internet has never gone down it hasn't until two days ago and I'd been having one heck of a time getting it back in I waited in line for an hour so get some pictures of video on here which I'll never see and it's still not up this is the next day at noon and still not functioning I can't upload some videos I've got done this one I don't know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna look for some Wi-Fi I got to go back to the internet place so anyway just quick update see you soon hopefully

2022 May 04 - Planets over Egyptian Pyramid
greetings and welcome to the introduction to astronomy one of the things that i like to do in each of my introductory astronomy classes is to begin the class with the astronomy picture of the day from the nasa website that is apod.nasa.gov apod and today's picture for may 4th of 2022 well it is titled planets over egyptian pyramid so what do we see here well in the foreground we see one of the oldest pyramids that is known dating back to the 27th century bc so extremely old and you can certainly see how worn it is over the centuries how worn down it has become up above it in the sky we see a line of planets and in fact four planets there that are visible in the morning sky right now we see off to the left hand side we see jupiter the largest planet in the solar system a little bit above and to the right of that we do see the planet venus which is the brightest object in the sky other than the sun and moon and then further up we see mars and saturn now we note that the planets are all lined up in a line so that is because the solar system is flat and when in the past you may have drawn a solar system on a piece of paper that's really not that bad of an approximation as to how flat the solar system is and that's way when you're looking at it from one planet all the other planets will seem to follow the same path in the sky now there will be some slight variations because yes each planet's orbit is slightly tilted relative to the others so if you tried to draw a straight line through these four you would find that you were unable to do so and that some some of them would be slightly above or below and you're seeing that slight tilt of each planet's orbit however they do follow this path which we call the ecliptic now the eclip ecliptic is also the path that the sun and moon would follow so the sun moon and planets all go through the same set of constellations over time and that means they will pass through those same constellations and we call those the constellations of the zodiac with which you may be familiar and those are where we will find the planets so it is very rare to find on any of these objects outside of those set of constellations right along the ecliptic that we call the zodiac there are a few times depending on the tilt that one might actually reach into another constellation barely that is nearby but for the most part you will find these these planets and others along that range now we continue as these continue to orbit their pla their positions is changing or changing and in fact jupiter and venus already shifted places last at the end of last month where they shifted and now jupiter is higher up than venus and it is approaching mars so as jupiter gets higher and higher and towards the end of this month jupiter and mars will be very close together so it's jupiter is the continuing as each planet follows its own orbit and we see their positions in the sky from our perspective here on earth so that was our picture of the day for may 4th of 2022 it was titled planets over egyptian pyramid we'll be back again tomorrow for the next picture so until then have a great day everyone and i will see you in class

Bishop McKee Says Thank You
i want to say a word of appreciation to all of you to the laity and the clergy of the north texas conference of the united methodist church we know that 2020 was a challenging year to be in ministry for our clergy is challenging for our laity as well because nothing happened the way any of us would have expected it to have happened but you were still the church while you couldn't gather in person in large groups you were the church in the community in all the communities across the north texas conference they were deeply blessed by by you your presence and your generosity and i want to thank you for the way in which you've been generous to your neighbors and extending the hands of christ to those who are in need i also want to say this special word of gratitude as well you have been very very generous with your contributions and so at the end of the year of 2020 you uh the laity and the clergy in the north texas conference have paid apportionments and the rate of 89 which is approximately what was paid last year so while there were financial difficulties at time you have been most generous and i want to thank you so very much for your generosity not only locally but to the larger church that is around the world god bless you for your ministry and your generosity blessings

Are You There God? - Kinsey Bates - Daily Faith TV Clips
listen to this story folks that's that thing and a little bit of background it's like i grew up in a good christian home and i love the lord and i thought i knew the lord and um and growing up you know you go to work you go to school and then next thing you know i i feel the call of the lord to move and um little did i know i would meet my husband there which was neat but um this exciting thing is that is that you know we fell in love and we got married and it was just this wonderful story that this fairy tale wedding my whole family was there and i know you guys couldn't be there but um it was just amazing just to see how like two families can come together and and you know you think that you have it all together and it's just wonderful you go through trials in life and marriage and you know i was a little rough at first and then you know you pray and ask god and you just think you know and you're doing all of the right things everything that you learned when you were younger all of these things and then next thing you know yes tragedy struck and it hit us and it was like wait what what what's going on like it was just a blur it was this fog like is this my life is this really happening like do these things really happen and it was such a whirlwind at the moment and not understanding in that point you just feel like god is are you there do you hear my prayer like do you do you see what i'm going through and the amazing thing is his grace is that he was there the entire time so first year of marriage i i don't want to go into the thing too much in detail because a lot of this litigation and stuff is still going on but you were part of the ministry and and then stuff started happening that you you i'm sure you're nothing you're in the boiler room just doing what you're doing within your little world and unknown there was stuff that was happening outside of your control that ended up the fbi and all kinds of involvement in in the ministry sure i mean next thing you know we're it at working and then next thing you know you know we're going to court because we've been sued and it's like wait what what what's going on i mean you're talking about just things being taken away your life your freedoms your everything and it's it really is such a whirlwind and in that moment it's finding out okay god what's going on you know everybody was great we're living a wonderful life we're married and the next thing you know i'm sitting in a courtroom in a federal courtroom about to go to prison you know and it's you told me last night something that blew my mind was towards the end you didn't have a lawyer to represent you is that correct yeah i was pro se the entire time in federal court so you had to represent yourself against these lawyers represent myself in federal court yes i was 27 26 turning 20 so at 26 you are sitting in a federal courtroom fighting for your freedom literally and no no legal counsel just left there to sit in in the most i would guess the most petrifying circumstance yeah i mean you're just gripped by fear it's this fear that just comes over you this this paralyzing moment where you can't even it's like an out of body like you didn't even know that was me this is my life like that experience it's sitting in a courtroom and then you hear the judge say you know you're guilty you're you're going to prison and it's like what you know and the next thing you know they take you away and the next thing most of the things that were going on were ridiculous misunderstandings i'm familiar with the case so there's no intent there was no there was nothing evil in anyone's mindset they were just doing what they thought was was a was a a good practice and you were even further down this this this chain of understanding that you're just kind of answering the phones and and being nice to folks so you're swept up in this whole case and you end up representing yourself because they wouldn't give you funds to hire a lawyer to defend yourself and you end up five years sentenced to five years in prison how does it feel a young girl of 26 to be looking at a judge across a courtroom and him say and hit that gavel and say five years it must have been like the end of the world yeah i told you to try not to cry that's okay we want to weep with you today it's it's an experience that it's just so hard to explain and um the fear that grips you that feel like your life is over you feel like you are all alone just there and there's nobody there to help you your husband can't help you your family can't help you nobody can do anything and you're at the mercy your husband bought it in a separate thing he's also sentenced to how many years was he sentenced to i'm about 15. so you're going you're you're looking at a five-year prison sentence your husband is a 50-year prison sentence and he's still there right now yes and i mean what what does a a a girl because excuse me you're a woman i know but to me i still know you as a girl in my heart what does a girl do is she she's walked out of prison i mean it must seem that there's no there's just no there's no future where's it gone it really you you feel like everything's gone i remember getting to the facility that i had to be in and it was it was so surreal you just want to pinch yourself okay god this is a joke like okay wake me up now okay this really here is this really my life like yeah and you're there you're really there you're really in this place of desolution like this destitute you're just there's nothing that you can do and you're told what to do you're told when to eat you're told when to go to bed you're told when to get up you're told when to make your bed you you have no control over anything you get a limited amount we heard of this and um it's to the point that you when they put you in this facility you need money to buy stuff from the commissary is that correct and you you have funds you don't want to do that and we were able to send a little bit of money to give you at least the comfort of having clippers and stuff but i mean yes you are literally stripped of all dignity of of all of all liberty of all thought processes basically and um so tell us how how do you find yourself one once again in the middle of this this cave of darkness once i got there i remember going to this room and you know growing up in the church being a pastor's kid living my life for the lord and everything that i knew of god to do i get to the word and i have this bible and i just start talking to god saying where are you what's going on how is this happening you know you say you're real but why am i here i wasn't mad at god i was just very confused and i didn't understand and i didn't know what's going on and you know the state of confusion that hits you amidst the the panic and the fear that you're in and you're alone and you don't know anybody or with a whole bunch of strangers but i just think okay god fine this is it if this is where i am at this is where you are and this is where my time is if you are who you say you are then show me yeah then show me what i'm here for why am i here you know and i took the bible and i threw it on the bed and i said fine you speak of faith what is faith show me what your faith is and i really just got in the word and i put the lord to the test just just saying okay fine i'm here there's nothing else i can do i come to that conclusion that this is you know what it is and next thing you know no no next you know no i've started this journey and i remember this one lady was telling me um she was like oh honey it's fine you're new don't worry about it you know i i see what's going on it's okay you know god just has you on this journey right now i did not want to hear anything about god was saying i did not want to know i hated that word journey i was like why why me i was still upset with okay god fine you're going to show yourself to me let's do this okay with that attitude you know i mean but i was like okay i felt justified because i'm sitting in prison lord what do i do but um anyway so it was just this moment of this journey with god in finding him and i remember i speak of my birthday i remember laying there and i woke up and i think that was the most painful thing is waking up in prison and it's your birthday and you have no family you have nobody around you you have you know my family is everything to me my family is my life and to not be with them and i think it just caused more stress and turmoil and everything but through that god is so faithful how his mercy that he kept me the entire time and and all these little moments that i had with him that were god moments and and all of these little things that i remember just it's okay you can do it you can do it just keep going it's one day this is not that bad just keep going i had to put myself in a mindset that i just knew that god was going to do it and that's it i don't know how i don't know when i just know that if god is either a man that he would lie or he knows exactly what he's doing and that's the thing god doesn't lie god can't lie in finding that out in life in this journey it's god so i know exactly what you're doing your promises are your word and discovering that and finding out who god is in this journey and and finding out who he is in me made me to be the woman of god i remember sitting there and just saying you know if i'm going to do this god i want to be a woman of faith i want to be someone that you can look up to i want to tell my friends this i i would see you know the christian networks i would see like tbn and joyce meyers and all these other women and you know these men just thinking oh wow they're up there and their stories and how they got there and but i just remember saying you know god i i can do that i want to do that i can do that like i just just help me to be that woman of faith that you've called me to be and little did i know it was this process of praying in the mornings and spending time with god and worshipping him and you know it's kind of like dating it's kind of funny but it's kind of like dating um you find out that god is a gentleman and you find out that when you give him a little then he gives you a little you talk a little bit you talk he talks when you listen it's so sweet and it's so loving and it's just so peaceful and how the holy spirit would just come over me and just wash over me was just i remember sitting there having this alone time with god in the morning and just saying god i could really use a hug right now i could just really use a hug and when i closed my eyes i could feel like hugging jesus i could feel him right here so close and it was just this warming experience i can't it's so hard to explain but it's just this joy that overtakes you and tears were falling down my face i was thanking god and praising god and just just his love and his mercy that he kept me the entire time just give me just for today you give me just enough for today he just gave me just enough for that moment

Hurricane Irma terror caught Largo with a glimpse of the damage:
we're seeing our first pictures of the damage in some hard-to-reach communities the Florida Keys face what one official called a humanitarian crisis Irma made landfall there with a hundred and thirty mile an hour winds Elaine Quijano has made it to Key Largo with a glimpse of what Irma left behind Elaine good morning good morning to you Nora by daylight now we are getting that first glimpse of some of the devastation Irma left behind we see piles of debris here in Key Largo things like sliding glass doors fences down piles of wood mattresses and take a look beyond that property over there across the water it is much the same story you can just see the force of the water that came through as her washed ashore now earlier we saw from our vantage point a chopper authorities appearing to survey the scene here and they're now going to have a chance to get to those hardest hit areas traveling at night without any electricity it was very difficult even just making our way to this point but now they will be able to get some help to the folks in the Lower Keys and the middle Keys they'll be doing that of course all throughout the days and weeks ahead what we know here is in Key Largo we've been able to survey a little bit of the surrounding area and clearly there was a storm surge effect but even just a little bit further down from here along the overseas highways it's known route one that's the only way in and out of the keys we saw boats we saw refrigerators in the median we saw coolers we saw furniture things you don't normally see on a street just some of the things that we were able to see as we were making our way over here so it is going to be a massive recovery effort ahead authorities are still not even sure what precisely they're dealing with of course we're in the very early stages of it will be a long and difficult recovery process Charlie

Sew Along: Teaquilts Quilter's Patch Month 7 Assignment
[Music] hi it's Steve with equals and I'm here working on my Cochise patch so along I'm actually trying to work on a month 7 and I also did some adjustments to a block that I made earlier I don't know if you recall where I made a block that was totally white background and I didn't like it with the other blocks so I did end up t dyeing that block and then what happened once I T dyed it is that the block then shrunk a little bit I have the right coloring that I wanted but my block went from 12 and a half inches on finish to 12 inches and then even though the block was the right coloring it was still just a little too plain for me so I thought that I would just share with you what I did with that block so here is my completed block I didn't take pictures of it as I went along but I just took one of my tulip fabric marking pins I actually did a review on these pins and I'll put a link up above just click on the I above in the upper right hand corner of the video and you can watch my review on that but I used that pin and just decided to make like sixes and nines or pins with a curl however you want to look at them I was not consistent but overall I feel like the overall effect is really good and it blends in well with my other blocks when I first started I thought maybe this was a bad idea but I know that I can always use it in an extra block quilt but I really like it here and then because the block was now smaller I did go ahead and Reese quare it up and then I added an inch and a quarter strip on one side and the top and then I squared that up to 12 and a half inches and I did look at the pattern and let me zoom out so I can show you on the book here I did look on the pattern and saw that between these two blocks there wasn't any space so I said oh that would be a good place to put my extra strip and they didn't have an extra strip up at the top I didn't want to put it on the bottom because all of these blocks kind of anchor the bottom row there so there was some planning as to where I was going to put my extra pieces and they are not straight but the block itself is straight because when I put it into the hot water with the tea then the block kind of shrunk a little bit so I'm now happy with the block at first I thought I was going to have to make a new one but I'm glad that I am able to use it this way well first before we talk about the blocks we're going to do things a little different this time because I'm so late and working on these blocks and I need to get this video up right away first off I just want to give a quick tip on these two blocks you have a lot of pieces that you're cutting and I like to just take pieces of painters tape and I just tear pieces off and then I write the alphabet to indicate what part of the block I'm going to be using that piece for so that way I'm not remeasuring as I'm making the blocks and then I take those pieces and I stick them on the outer edge of my cutting board and I'll insert a picture so you can see that and then as I'm cutting pieces I can then go ahead and pull those pieces off the edge and go ahead and put them on the fabrics as I cut so another change for this month is that I have already pre-cut everything I have pre-cut for both of those blocks I'm gonna go ahead and give you my information on both blocks because there's not much difference for a month-to-month there's nothing really new this month the only thing that I'll say is on your sweet pea block you do have some different measurements for your stems so just be aware of what you're cutting for your stems and then we do have a paper piece section and I just copied this straight from the book and when I copied it I made sure that my copy was the exact size of what it needed to be for the finished block and mines did come out the correct size so I don't have to make any adjustments but if I had to make some adjustments I would just make sure that I had extra fabric laying on the outside of the pattern as I was paper piecing and then I will just trim that block larger and not and I'll ignore the seam allowances on the actual paper piece unit but mines copy the exact size so I don't have that issue and then that's just paper piecing that unit I've got videos on paper piecing so I'm not gonna really go into that one and then on the bachelors button block you also have another paper piece unit where they're having you make your half square triangles you actually need to have two of those to make half square triangles for your leaves and I think she's just trying to get you some different techniques throughout the quilt so you can use it as a learning sampler so I think that's why she did that if you don't want to do the paper piecing of the half square triangles you can just cut your units to the appropriate size if you like and we did have to cut some diamonds this month for the bachelors button block so these are my diamond fabrics and it's they have you cut three strips from ten inch square I just cut one strip from a yardage of fabric and just cut the number of pieces that I needed and that was a lot quicker tip for me than to cut three strips and then to three strips from two different fabrics and then go and cut those into the pieces that I needed I just cut it from a long strip I'm just going to go ahead and start piecing these blocks and I'm back with my completed block this is the sweet pea block and I just wanted to say that you will have some extra pieces when you're piecing this block you'll have a next a half square triangle and an extra Q half square triangle and I am just going to go ahead and sell those two together and use them in some future project and then the half square triangle on the bottom you will end up with an extra half square triangle just because you need it five of those instead of six but you make them in pairs so this block I would say the sewing was pretty simple you do need to be careful when sewing your stems because they're so tiny you really don't have enough room for both of the seam allowances to overlap so it's a little bulky when you're sewing so just something to be cautious of there so I'll just go ahead and sew the bachelors button block next hi I'm back and I have song two of these Lemoine store blocks and I will tell you that they are beast to sew the one on the left I actually sold according to the directions in the book except that I decided to mark the 1/4 inch sewing line on the back so let me show you that so so you can see where I have drawn my quarter-inch sewing lines when I drew the sewing lines on the star pieces I drew on both the pink and the red diamonds so that way I had a choice on which side I wanted to sew and then when I marked on the triangles in this area here I only did it on the inside edges as well as on the square I only did it on the inside edges also when you start to sew I did start sewing from the end and then I stopped 1/4 inch in and this center here is how they tell you how to do it in a book where you start in the center go out start in the center and go out it's not as accurate as the one where I sew just straight across for some reason actually the seam is this way but it's still not as accurate this has one point that's off and this has too many more points that are off because it has a little tiny hole in the middle if you just made half square triangles and squares that are in a even grid this is not a true even grid maybe because it's more of a nine patch instead of us four patch or sixteen patch block but I would do that instead because this is very time-consuming I think it took me about 40 minutes to piece each one of these blocks so that's over an hour in about 20 minutes to piece two blocks and I still have one more to go so I just thought I would give you that tip so here is my completed block I do have to square it up I haven't squared it up yet but this one was a chore I would say that this was the hardest block we've had so far so and it's only because it's more time-consuming and the pieces are so tiny I'll add a picture at the end of the two blocks that I made with the block that I also adjusted [Music]

Mainstream News: The Eclipse Earthquake Will Be Transformative
[Music] it's the daily comedy news with your host Mark Pyers join us for breaking headlines and all kinds of Comedy Shenanigans brought to you by the beat [Music] seat welcome welcome to the show that never ends the mark Inspire show day 1922 in a row part two so we had our second earthquake and Aftershock I guess you call it in the uh Left Coast I think we're switching you know existences here that a few people respond to my you know earthquake message earlier saying you know over here in California we didn't have one I'm like yeah we what's what happened here like I don't remember ever having an earthquake they said there was one in 2011 but I don't remember that I would say that the Aftershock was a little jarring I did uh mention it on Tik Tok but um what do you guys think because apparently there's going to be a massive one during the eclipse the eclipse is going to trigger some massive earthquake and the News the mainstream news the guy came out and said it he goes uh she said you know thank go gosh we made it through and he goes yeah but that's just a Prelude he's going to be the the really big one to look forward to is during the eclipse the eclipse earthquake and I'm like what and she just kind of smiled the other newscaster we're going to see if we could find that clip for you and we're just going to discuss a couple of the theories that are out there about this Monday the eclipse Total Eclipse of the Heart and possibly more I mean a few of these theories are are downright frightening and I don't know if I could put much comedy into this because this is frightening stuff but we're going to talk about it there may be a few funny things especially in some of these conspiracy theories but some of them are really scary CU they seem like they could be very true um so I want to talk to them you know talk to you about them and see what you think maybe you can leave your comments and we can have a little conversation about it uh possibly even I don't know make some do some Callins or something like that um we have clap around with us so I don't know if we can do that but besides the point send messages in the chat let's see if we can delve a little deeper on this topic I'm going to open up a screen here and see if we can find we have Matt zoski here as you guys know he's a woohoo guy that's Joan she's the [Music] Weezer first thing I wanted to discuss with you guys what is this about what is this about this was yesterday the Statue of Liberty some say it's Apollo Statue of Liberty getting struck by lightning yesterday what do you guys know about [Music] it how often does that happen and then we have an earthquake the very next day how often does that happen the last time Statue of Liberty was struck by lightning I'm curious if you guys know uh I'm in the process of building four beat seats so I don't know if it's going to be a very long show I got to where I may put a movie on or something but uh Matt zoski what's up Joan keep the we down please Z Joanne oh my goodness I'm sorry that my bad Joanne sometimes pushes it out of me oh goodness so let's look at this what do you guys think about this lightning strikes the goddess right oh here it is look at that I didn't even know there was video where's the strike I don't see it I think that this is uh either fabricated or someone really caught video of it but that's crazy lighting up the torch I mean it always goes for the uh it always goes for the highest point look it here we go freaking hell look at this the informant here said apparently people in New York are believing the end of the world is very close the Statue of Liberty was struck by lightning yesterday suffered an earthquake today and will undergo a total eclipse on Monday a unique alignment of the planets a comet El Diablo Three NASA launches honoring Pagan deities and the activation of CERN on the same day but it's all coincidence it's so freaking scary that they're doing all that they're turning on CERN during the total eclipse NASA is shooting three rockets at the total eclipse for science purposes guys LD the the the devil Comet I'm pretty sure this is a Planet X thing so that's one of the theories look at this here we go solar eclipse coming earthquakes locusts coming devil as our president war is Raging huh well my Aunt Judy told me I'm supposed to destroy the country yep you're doing it buddy uh so that's I guess what it looks like pardon me I got to turn the heat on I also have dust because I've been building four beat SE as I told you this is the face of one of the Beet seats I just laser engraved the Beet seat logo on it uh and that's why I have dust in this freaking room but I also have been cutting bead seats downstairs they got all four cut and one of them is already put together but I have to put the snare wires in then I have to build the snares and so I'm realizing I'm probably going to be up all night cuz the have to be ready for this kind of get together on Sunday with a bunch of special needs individuals if you don't know anything about my drum the beat seed I invented it for myself so I could play guitar for you guys and write songs live in the moment but it's also an extremely powerful sensory therapy drum for anybody with a special need so I'm trying my best to alert any parent with a child with special needs that there's a drum that could change their lives it has unlimited tones everywhere you hit it sounds different and it's amazing to play it's so much fun to play so um beat seat. rocks if you want to check it out and let's get back into what's going on with this crazy Eclipse story so eclipse what I've heard these are a couple of the conspirac conspiracies I've heard so far the eclipse is going to roll through that the Atlantic rift is going to like get pulled over the top like it's like right in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and the whole Eastern Seaboard is going to be wiped away and and it will be under underwater CU all that water is going to come over as a tsunami in our Direction in the other direction um all life gone um then we're going to have a re basically um there's the the other one I heard is that there's a nuclear EMP above us that uh Vladimir Putin has in the sky and that he's going to threaten during the solar eclipse to unleash it on America and if that happens there's one in 10 that survived that um and the the scary thing is while I was listening to this Creator tell this paint this picture essentially I'm listening and seeing it and I'm imagining the life it would be if this all this stuff happens and I'm thinking about all the ones I love that just like me probably not make it and that that that would be the end of us is like is trying to figure out how to get food and water and like and what do you do when when there's no way to I'm like okay we'll ride and in my mind I'm thinking all this I'm like okay we have bikes we'll jump on bikes and I'm like yeah someone shoots us and takes the bikes at some point you know it's like this is a messed up thought when everything shuts off and people are like oh well I still have this you you need crank stuff because everything is done All Electronics every chip that we've ever created is fried and this could have happened many times in in the life of this world and civilizations could have risen to this level hundreds of times thousands of times and every single time this potential happens and then they're they're just wiped out what do you do when you don't understand how to survive anymore you die the reason things stayed the way they did for so long the way we see it is because they were able to survive by going out and killing and someone was home taking care of the children and cooking and and all this stuff is like men and women work together in order for the families to to come together and survive then we got so soft and cushy it's all about things now and now we're here in 2024 and the potential of everything shutting down or whatever is their freaking people are scattering all kinds of potentials that are are being spoken of and they're not positive one guy had a positive idea here and I want to kind of spread this out there because I think if we all do it at the same time like he was saying we could actually affect a different change here everything is frequency and vibration you guys know that I write songs here every night at 432 Hertz because frequency and vibration matters and they've looked at how a group of people meditating on an idea can have a real effect in the world and so the concept would be when this total eclipse is taking place we as a group meditate on the idea of a an Awakening a positive outcome from this event a place where more people are able to see the real world for what it is treaty PE treating people the way they want to be treated I wrote a song called the truth the hook is you can never have it all until you wake no I'm sorry there's like a whole freaking part and it goes you wake again wearing thin Through Your Skin win Los or dra someone's keeping score down here or up there it doesn't matter till your dying day that's why you give it to people the way you want it back you got to give it to people the way you want it back that's the hook and I sang that song to my bass player back when I had a band back then before I was a oneman band doing all this stuff and invented the the only drum in the world for guitar players and I'm playing this the night after I wrote or the morning after I wrote it for Jay my bass player was a crazy dude he had these dreads all over the place he had these Sideshow Bob dreads the coolest dude in the world I love Jay sick bass player I was a an amateur musician at the time and Jay was a pro so was Dave and I go to sit down with Jay and I'm like I got a new song for us and I was just the songwriter and so I show up and I'm like Hey listen to this I didn't have a name all I had was the lyrics and I just sang that that thing for him and at the end he goes that's the truth and I go what and he goes That's the Truth he goes That's the name of that song that's the the second song of of mine that he named that was one and the other one was called cave song it used to be called um sleeping alone at night it's a beautiful song it's about I I'll maybe play it for you um and so uh I finished up sleeping alone tonight he goes That's cave song and I was like cave song what are you talking about he goes I don't know I just feel like it's that's that's called cave song I was like all right so I changed the name of it to Cave song but the truth I was like I get you know because when you hear someone say you can never have it all um it's hard enough keeping what you've made a choice and now you've got to live for what you are until you wake again wearing thin Through Your Skin whenn Lose or Draw someone's keeping score down here or up there it doesn't matter till you're dying day that's why you give it to people the way you want it back and so I've been here 1922 days in a row giving it to you guys the way I want it back I show up here in the moment and try to break away from this negative World create something on this guitar have a laugh or two unfortunately also understand the realities of our existence like a crazy solar eclipse like an earthquake that happened and then an Aftershock that took place at 6:00 p.m. and there's likely going to be another one because if you think about it that was uh 10:20 to 600 p.m. that was about 8 hours uh I'm thinking you know around two and 2 3 in the morning we're we're set to get another one um my son was looking it up he's like you know there they said there's going to be thousands afterwards I was like thousands I said do they get worse and he's like well they say usually it doesn't get worse look at this this is what it was like in New York City guys guys YouTube X Rumble if you want to come and see this it's all over my shoulder here just type in my f look that guy was laying some steel uhoh smart kids look at that dude can I just can I just say that is not the way my class would have reacted in 1996 you know we're all there earthquake I like what the is that Jimmy did you crap your pants again sometimes when he does it he shakes the room you know and no it's an earthquake oh guys what do we do then I don't know any doorways to stand under I don't let's go under our desks oh yeah that that we do everybody did that so quickly that was ridiculously that was like coordinated they knew it was happening you guys see that right they were like uh let's just pretend guys that we're in an earthquake and we're going to really this is like a just a a and how quick was that you know what it is since Coline and since all the insanity with the the gun violence they have e [Music] you e wait wa e she was ridiculous nobody likes you Joanne as I was saying and Joanne was wheezing through Joanne shush it so the lightning bolt guys not connected to the top of the you know know she's holding the torch of god Apollo she's standing there we're waiting for it to

shot of it you just happened to be shooting it right guys let me take a photo right no guys did you see that I got a lightning bolt right in the middle of the lightning bolt did you or did you use Photoshop I'm pretty sure it's a Photoshop deal you know you know when you figure it out sleuthing it that's what we do here at the Mark Inspire show we kind of break through the facade of BS now that you have AI That's creating artwork for you look there's like a like a frog down here like what is this this is a terrible AI reproduction H let's I think we got a all St kubric back from the dead

end of days here like you gotta question you gotta question it St Peter's he just hung up on me he's like Mark I can't go on the air look at that it's the ring of fire okay so update earthquakes reported in various areas across the globe as the great solar eclipse approaches the great solar eclipse the X across the United States Nineveh what do you guys think what do we what's going to happen here on Monday I got to go buy a crap load of water and some beans remember the more you eat the the the more days you live without dying what' you think I was going to say anyway guys look here we go anything else where is this Dan martland right here Dan martland he made this shot in Photoshop oh guys look I'm gonna zoom in right now I just want to take a picture of the Tor real quick you know

torch I'm all over it I'm going to post it to my snap chat everybody okay this one's cool because it's a cloudy overcast day you can't even see the Statue of Liberty you know she's basically like smogged out jersey smog you know we're gonna snap that shot hold on hey countdown for me oh oh my gosh did you see that lightning bolt it just happened right when I pushed the the trigger for my camera stupid you made it in Photoshop look at that I'm going to even illuminate the torch yeah Mary Lou retton's on her way we know we already heard the story guys Mary Lou she's just going to run down and do a flipp aoo you know they have the uh the pole vault there as well the pole vault what the [ __ ] oh goodness you know what was this here cut cut what the [ __ ] I got to tell you I kind of enjoy X now cuz it's like like there's so much stupid crap here I can't deal with all the hate that comes like about political hate but when I like looking at stuff like this there is a lot of funny stuff there okay let's see if there's anything here any audio because a lot of people say I'm like this guy and I do love Charlie day I think I do act like him a lot at least I get very emotional and kind of scream like that also a little bit like this guy right here this is kind of me [Music] and spectacular regular this land holds great [Music] Beauty oh gosh I love you Jim Cary what an awesome scene I totally remember this oh how far to the crime scene well I've been instructed to bring you first to the consulate which should be Beyond those trees on the other side of the Jungle so we'll have to circle around oh goodness you got to love jry guys to me the greatest comedic actor ever I love him I really I loved Jim G you could tell probably by my comedy um I I like to do a lot of physical stuff and he was one of my definite uh I would say um mentors when it comes to physical comedy and facial expressions and look offs and all kinds of stuff that I do a lot of it comes from this guy he's a just pure a little every word to the advantage of the if you ever if you ever have a chance go back we should actually watch this here it's Jim Cary when his first comedy wasn't telling jokes it was going up and doing impressions his impressions are terrible but his physical Impressions were so good he did everybody like dead on the way their body moved and when you have that ability that you can be a chameleon with your actions and and your mannerisms and this is something that's really really important when you're going to be a physical comedian is taking on that character in the moment and then becoming that character and you guys have probably seen it if you haven't before when I break into dick F or I'll break into any of the characters I do there my body changes everything about the way I move hammerland Jameson the drunk reporter that I am like every single thing um in my body becomes B basically a connection to that character and also a way for me to use that as a prop and you know I'll use clippy or whatever in order to create some sort of additional comedy within the moment uh but really the the extension of the comedy is every little piece of your body and the way you use it and it's the same for any I say anything that's um like even a picture I think about it for my son like being able to mimic another picture something he used to do I just he'd be like hey Dad who do you want to see I'd be like uh I don't know show me Justin Verlander and he he's like a nine-year-old dead on looks like Verlander I'm like okay let me see um Marana Rivera and he's like he throws a perfect Rivera he's a lefty though and then he's doing all these different people and he just he had their hand motions down and the way their body moved his Clayton Kershaw it looks exactly like Clayton Kershaw I'm like it's a nine-year-old kid doing the kick of Clayton Kershaw and the move in the body and he turned and he do the same movement of of of Verlander and you come to the stop and you throw those hands here and he was like dang that that looks like Verlander 9-year-old left-handed Verlander and like he settled on his own style of pitching um which was like a mix of a few things and now he's changed it recently he used to do this crazy thing I loved it he was a little nine-year-old kid and the way I pitched is I'd hold my glove in front of my hand like this so all you saw was my eyes I was a small kid as I told you I threw a knuckle ball slider and fast ball my fast ball was top 63 when I was younger but my knuckle ball was stupid sick it was the best pitch I love throwing it anytime I have a catch with my son all I throw is knuckle balls to him R having catch I'm just throwing knuckle balls at him and he's like dang and I said you're going to learn that freaking pitch now he's old enough as a lefty I said I want to see a left-handed knuckle baller not only that he's going to learn the other pitch I used to do which is a sidearm if you guys don't remember who Dan quizenberry was freaking love Dan quizenberry Quisenberry used to go down and do a submarine pitch and so that was my sneaky pitch I had my knuckle ball which people couldn't stand because they didn't know how to hit it and it'd come in pretty fast and that thing would move because it was not moving it would just be like floating through the air and then drop cuz the wind would take it and stuff and then every once in a while I'd come up like I'm throwing my overhand and I just come I'm throw i' throw like a sidearm and people freak out because all instead of coming up over the top every time you're all of a sudden coming from the side and it's just hard to react when you only see that every once in a while and it was such a nasty pitch I remember striking people out with that all the time because no one expected it um so I don't know why I've never seen a pitcher do that in the majors a guy who's and you know what closest I could see is this guy who's for the Yankees now and we go he'll go up and he'll just kind of hang in the air for a little bit you know and then he'll go like that guy is cool because he's definitely taking advantage of of time um if you can control the time of of the game you're going to throw people off because they want to move on their own at their own pace you control the pace you control the game and so the my favorite thing about this is my son would get on the mound and he he'd look at the guy and I taught him to do this I'm like you look over cuz he was he's a small kid still he's like me and so um like I was and So eventually when he get the ball he get in there grab the ball and he come in here and he bring his head hands over his head like this now there's a guy who used to pitch for the Yankees I can't think of his name Matsuyama or whatever Tanaka whatever and this guy would come back like this and he'd stand there for a few seconds and then he'd go so my son took that on with this Clayton Kershaw Vibe or whatever and so he go back like this and he's staring at the guy for a second as he's put his foot and tapping his foot on the ground he's grabbing a spot and then he come in and he start his finish his pitch and people be standing like what this kid looks like a crazy pitcher there was one time he went back and held it so long that the the the coach and the other team was like come on let's go already and I was like no keep doing that that's freaking awesome like he just I don't know what he was thinking he he held it for like five seconds like this little kid on a mound holding it staring at the freaking batter for like 5 seconds and then the coach is like come on already started going right when the coach said that and I was like this is such a badass way to pitch and then he stopped doing the back like this now he comes to hear you're like I know it doesn't feel right to me I'm like dude you don't understand how freaking sick that must look to a batter when you're up there and you're just kind of staring at them like this for a second and you're tapping the ground as you grab your spot on the M on the uh at the mound and you come around and start your freaking process and there's so many things you could do get in the mind of a batter you can go quicker with your with your rot with your windup you can go slower you could take your time um you really have the opportunity to mess with people when you're on the mound it was my favorite thing look this is one of my game balls from when I was uh let's see this is Dodgers versus Phillies so I was 13 still have this now this is I loved baseball so much you could probably tell by the way I'm speaking about it but um I was a soccer ER player and my uh family just long line of soccer players were Portuguese so of course when I'm a kid my uh my my father wants me to play soccer he pushes me into soccer I'm happy to play because I loved it I really enjoy soccer and I loved soccer so I played at like uh with with a bunch of my friends we played soccer until I was like I think nine and then my best friend from soccer he goes you got to play baseball with me I'm like no I love soccer I'm socer he goes you got to play baseball we need more we need more people on the team and so like I went on the field the first time and man I freaking fell in love with this game I got on the mound and I started throwing bullets and I was at that time when you're 46 feet away like I was throwing bullets at that time it's when you go back to 60 feet 6 in and you're still a small guy that's when it freaking sucks but when I was 45 fet away from the mound or from the plate I was throwing freaking bullets cuz I was just like every body else out there and I was throwing the knuckle ball and all this other stuff but I was throwing freaking bullets and then it's like I remember the day I went to 60 feet 6 inches and they were like yeah this is where you pitch from now and I was like what it was just weird because it's another 15 feet doesn't seem like much but the amount of time you have to react to a pitch is like crucial and if someone's throwing 63 at 45 ft or throwing 63 at 60 feet 6 in this it's a major difference 63 at 45 feels like 85 so there's a there's this whole dynamic of how close you are when you're throwing a ball 63 miles an hour and that is something I lost when I got everybody else got bigger and I didn't until senior year of high school and that's why I developed the knuckle ball which I think is like the greatest pitch in the world I was I was showing my son how did to transition from just grabbing the the the go I could I could hold the ball like this and by the I come back to you I'm holding it ready for my knuckle ball like I'll just show you that I come from here and then right away I'm right back here and I get my knuckle ball in place I this has become the most proficient pitch in the world for me I can grab it any time in the world I could go I could come right at you and while I'm coming at you be ready to throw it it's the craziest pitch I love it and the cool thing is every time you throw a knuckle ball it's different but the most important thing and the hardest thing about throwing a knuckle ball is making it look like you're throwing a fast ball and people can't tell you're throwing some weird pitch and this is the thing I had to develop with my son for actually not very long he picked it up quickly I I picked it up quickly but then you work it you have to work your craft and I remember throwing it that's the only thing I'd throw is that in my slider and I was working on that because as a kid they told you don't throw a curveball you'll screw up your arm and I always had these visions of being a real baseball player and so I learned this slider where I take my thumb off the ball I had this guy Aaron Gallow who taught me this he was a double a player um and one day he says hey this is how I throw my slider he's like the ball and I just freaking ripped the thing down and so I tried it and he was like that looks pretty cool keep working it and so I decided instead of throwing a a curveball which everybody else throws is to throw a slider and the my knuckle ball slider was very successful but I just didn't like it it's like I don't know I just love the way that knuckle ball would just be like you know or it be like sometimes like fall this way or sometimes you would just like Drop completely off or just go up like it's the craziest thing when you see a good knuckle ball and that's why it's like if you could be a lefty I keep my telling my son if you could be a lefty who could throw in the say 80s or like low 90s one day cuz he's got a gun this kid's got a gun even though he's small and he could throw it and his his curve Ball's nasty like he has a whole different approach to me he's like I'm throwing a freaking curveball and he just throws this nasty curveball and I'm like oh my goodness like he throws at 63 miles an hour I threw 63 is a fast ball he's throwing a 63 mph curveball at 15 and his fast Ball's around hovering around 70 to 72 and he's still like a kid he's 112 PBS do you guys understand what that means I'm like dude when you're 180 when you're 200 pounds of muscle if you actually go into the gym one day and you grow and you become a man because he's still a kid if you're a six foot 6 foot2 kid who's throwing with that speed now eventually get you get another six seven inches because I think he's five six you get about six seven inches on you and that extra weight I mean right now he's gunning it at 112 lbs it's freaking nuts and sometimes I'm even scared like I this is a weird thing I wear glasses now because I've messed up my eyes being a real estate agent you know like always looking at a screen trying to find listings for my clients or working on listings for my Sellers and looking for new listings new clients and my eyes got messed up I remember I saw this like bright light out of the corner of my eye when I was 20 930 and I freaked out I was like I think I you know something bad's going on I'm seeing this bright light corner of my eye and so I go to see the opthalmologist I never saw one before I was 35 I'm sorry and I go to see the opthalmologist and he goes um you you know you're you're kind of like blind and I go what he goes yeah you know you got one eye that's like compensating for another eye you got stigmatism in both eyes I'm like what does any of this mean you know he's like just put these on just put the freaking glasses and I said when do I wear them he goes just all the time don't ever take them off I'm like am I nearsighted am I fared he's like you're all sighted just freaking wear that [ __ ] you know and so basically I wear them but the interesting thing is when I take them off like I take them off for the show because there's a lot of glare for my lights um I can see actually really clearly within like 15 minutes of taking them off it's that first couple minutes where I'm still trying to reconnect get my calibration back but once I do it's like a little blurry but not bad and I still wonder why you know he saw it worse than it is and he he did say one of your eyes is really compensating for the other one and I I'm not sure which one again I think it's my left eye it really it's uh it's really sharp and it like balances it out pretty well but that's also what was causing me to see some sort of weird crap and so basically once I put glasses on I never had that issue again so that's a good thing but when I'm wearing these glasses now and I'm trying to catch my son throwing 71 72 mes hour from 60 feet 6 in like I used to be like yeah whatever I could catch a 90 mph fast ball freaking out man like I don't want to get down cuz that thing's coming in and I'm trusting man wait a second that's 71 like what is 85 like what is 90 like right now my age like I can't imagine it because I'm like some there's a few I remember thinking to myself the ball I tried to get my glove to where the ball was I'm like it it may have been even faster that's how thing this thing was coming in I tried to get my glove to the ball to catch it in time and I realized the ball came by my glove at I B my glove up and the ball was like here and I go oh [ __ ] that's not good cuz if he threw that right at my freaking nog and I'm like oh that my hand was not quick my reflexes were always the best thing I had is like I could just grab that freaking ball and all of a sudden I'm like dude 72 feel real fast you know what I mean I'm like maybe I should sit back a little bit and I'll like stand up so I'm always like this now I'm like all right buddy let's go what do you got give it to me you know and so I can always jump out of the way if it starts coming at my f uh cuz that's a big fear as you get hit in the face with a fast ball curveball knuckle ball that type of thing uh so anyway I don't know I'm why I'm talking about baseball just I do love it it's baseball season almost soon excited to see my son get back out there and gosh do I miss playing again another with the freaking lightning bolt at the base of the the feet disgusting like you got another scaly feet at this point that's 130 years right there in that location no one's ever washed those dogs they needed the lightning in order to just kind of break away the grime you know I mean guys sometimes when you understand it you know yeah Nick right Chris how are you so good to see you kit in the house es coup thank you so much for the donation wait did Elgato came on I got it right when I pushed the button it's funny I was pushing the button I'm like I hope that Elgato is not on Wallace how are you my friend so good to see you guys we got into it tonight we're talking about it it's 43 minutes and I didn't really fully break down the story I just got I I still have not seen one video of the actual torch getting torched by lightning it's all photoshopped images from closeup by some guy named Luigi who's like oh guys I was look I was just snapping pictures of the freaking torch when the lightning bolt came cuz it's such a beautiful day can't even see the Statue of Liberty it's fog smog Jersey you make you know it's your choice it could be all three it's probably the Jersey smog fog deal look at this that lightning bolt does that go I think it goes in front of this pole or through it and if it does then this is a fake and all of these other weird looking little like this is very easily done with Photoshop guys I could do this in 13 seconds let's freaking do it in 13 seconds now I do have Photoshop and I probably if I spent an hour not even give me five minutes really I could probably make this I could grab a lightning bolt PNG it I'll drag and drop just that lightning bolt into an image of the stupid Statue of Liberty and then I'll lay it there right on the freaking torch with Lady Liberty drop it share it guys look lightning bolt hit the torch Mary Lou retton's on the way freaking Mary Lou she's coming out guys she's putting on the you know the gymnast outfit again

broadcasting out there look guys The Statue liberty uh the lantern the torch from Apollo it's been ignited by who Hector Hector ignited it because it definitely wasn't the lightning guys I'll prove it look her dumb feet keep getting the lightning bolt and Dr scholes doesn't work you know you rely on the lightning but Hector if you want if you want to have a lantern that's full of lightning a torch of lightning you call Hector for that we did have the earthquakes though that happened absolutely I saw a couple freaky videos I gotta tell you people there was one lady she's like doing her makeup she's like and all of a sudden the whole freaking room is shaking she's like and she did this all over her face she had the lipstick over here like she was doing it on someone's Donger and you're like oh but it was because of the earthquake guys there was no donger involved um what in the hell is this over here yeah anyway New York was just hit with a magnitude 4.8 to earthquake we know there it is the fake shot from Hector you know they keep getting away with it they're just selling fakes where's the video oh I got the video for you here it is yeah we saw the fake video or the fake picture where's the video video of a torch being ignited so Mary letton can take it down the street and pick up her gold medal from Eric Adams and her debit card oh shoot I Godot she's doesn't get one just people who don't belong here and they get Mary letten's house as well uh so guys this is what's interesting all right this is what I was telling you about I was trying to tell you about this but where is it they're not showing it to me I wanted to see the video so there's a video here in the Northeast we can now report according to the USGS the where is this this isn't it hey guys who's that it's me I'm on right now hello let's see if I can see myself I'm waving to myself hold on this will be fun oh look there he is there me right there I can see myself on x guys go over to X for watching me watch me that's just funny look at I was you laughing at myself H Joanne stop wheezing Joanne we're watching X you're there too the stupid we and the fart gosh almighty Joan does does anybody know what to do with that with Joanne where is the video that I was trying to find this oh here we go this is it Mond did you hear that we have the eclipse earthquake coming up on Monday it's not over yet okay let's see which which broadcast is this Fox News it's be a transformative experience oh my goodness America reports did you hear be a transformative experience that's why I put that in the title guys let's see America First Fox Fox n these idiots are letting out the truth without realizing it nah I was hoping that we'd find oh this guy freaked me out here he said well we all know that the Cove is intended to get to our brains in order to Dum down the population so we don't fight back sounds about right to me sleep sofa Joe what my Aunt Judy told me so guys basically that's what we got here look at this this is what we have going on the world let's see what happens this guy was beat up they stole his car they got his car they stole his car they got right oh oh [ __ ] and now they're beating him up they stole his car they're beating him up they're they're they're beat like eight guys are beating up a white guy they stole his car I mean this is this is what's interesting to me so how how do we get rid of racism by just being more racist is that how it works here we stop racism by being more RAC racist it's like it doesn't even make sense these people are vicious and it's like I see videos like this all the time 20 people out there beting a white guy he stole his car out stoping in the streets they sto his car they got his car they start look at this one two three guys just jump on again this is pathetic uh what in the freaking Ronald [Music] reag you remember when somebody shot Ronald Reagan I freaking hate people I mean honestly stupid people everywhere look at this douche trapping capacity so much that today we trapped as much extra heat shut the [ __ ] up I'm sorry guys I can't stand Al Gore this whole horeshit that he concocted to make millions and create like carbon taxes and Paris climate Accords and then these [ __ ] coming out here and telling us that we're still not doing enough when China is out there producing more CO2 than anyone else on planet Earth and you can't get them to stop we're we were at negative levels in the us when we had the former president here we were energy independent everything's turned to complete [ __ ] in this country and you got this douchebag over here as would be released by 750 here in my [ __ ] private jet shut your [ __ ] face up [ __ ] sorry guys I'm just sick of them I'm sick of them Al Gore I'm showing you the door Dicky oh I can't stand them you know I don't know what it is that people that create world changing negative agendas that aren't good for the people now that talk about a future that doesn't exist and may not exist because we have a freaking solar whatever coming next week and there's going to be earthquakes or maybe floods or whatever the hell is going on there's elephants that are just going up to higher levels what what do they do that for because animals understand to go to higher levels we don't we're stupid idiots here watching Netflix when something does go down but I'll tell you when you got ass clowns like this that get generations to start spouting insanity and saying let's spend $50 trillion to drop the CO2 level 0.003% well how much of the atmosphere is it currently it's got to be 20 to 30% of our atmosphere right guys the CO2 levels I got to figure it's 35% of our atmosphere is CO2 right Joanne what is it what do you think Jo stop the wheezing what' you say guys Joanne said 0.04% that's 0.04% yeah that's how much of the atmosphere is CO2 0.04% pray tell me my beautiful people on the other side of the screen how many things that you've ever known in the history of time have an effect if they're 0.04% of the total sum anyone anyone basically zero% right like zero literally I would say it's absolute zero oh I'm sorry it's .4% you're not even at 1% you're under 1% actually under half of 1% you know that right you're at 0.04% so you're not even at 0.0 five Rel like let's split it down the middle instead of doing 1% we'll split up like 1 half of a percent how about that no mother it's 0.004% deal with it your carbon guys we have to change everything that we're doing and we have to stop using fossil fuels I'm sorry oh yeah that's right no in the Democratic Republic of Congo we just have slave labor to get our Cobalt and then the the waste from the tires no not a big deal still kill the devil gas companies and anything that's not green you know we have the infrastructure for everything we're going to do trucks across the country charging them you know everything at the same time we could do it everybody every homeowner has a charger at home you've got major industrial trucks that are filling for goods you know traveling across the country they're charging all at the same time it's it's going to work perfectly you know it's the perfect America really no more combustion engines just you know cheap child labor and disgusting you know practices and also using up other precious materials like Cobalt Etc to build out these batteries much better than gas though you know trust me because ala class atomic bombs oh I can't stand him in his dumb microphone look how he has that dick microphone coming out from over here ah look I'm alore you're a freaking [ __ ] right oh guys I'm G get in trouble for being exploding on the Earth every 24 hours and that extra heat is Raising temperatures raing threatening to make I'm raising money and I'm going to steal more from the American people he's said duke dookie dookie McGee we call him sometimes I I realize I I I'm G to get in trouble guys for being bully I'm a bully right now I really just like to roast everybody that I do the news story you know I'm I'm doing a new story on but I would say this guy a d you know what I mean like I'm here doing the story he's there with the goofy microphone coming out you know here he is again look it uh so climate change who is he freaking Dr Phil Dr Phil what we're doing with climate change is it's going to change you're wonder if it's going to change it's going to change for the good for the better and if you say it's not not you're Al Gore if you're not Al Gore you're Dr Phil right I should be Dr Phil as an impressionist raing yes guys temperatures temperatures threatening to make much larger areas of the earth physiologically unlivable 0.04% douchy you know listen here's the thing you could listen to douchy McGee or you could say to yourself you know what that makes sense 0.004% of anything is absolute garbage you know and perhaps that uh all of this hubub about the CO2 leading temperature change we should look back about 750,000 years the last time that the temperature change caused the CO2 to follow that might just be a very interesting just talking point uh because that happened okay where you see temperatures rise and all of a sudden CO2 levels follow and maybe just maybe when temperatures fell the CO2 just took a longer time to follow and now you see it is the opposite when things are starting to go the other way oh it's pushing up CO2 eventually you'll see temperatures go by CO2 that would happen at some point but that's not Mark inspires climate scientist that's Mark inspires using my freaking inner Compass you know searching and following my North Star which is used to be here now like the North Stars like over there like they were dealing with magnetic pole switches there's a lot of stuff happening guys on this with this solar eclipse potential pull switches we got Russia dropping nuclear uh EMF bombs in US you got solar flares coming in emfs you've got um C CME you got Mark wages talking about that Ron Tyler doing it and then you got this generating a massive flow of climate refugees migr across International borders as many as a billion in this Century a billion is that how many people you want to come in here from other parts of the country or the world that don't belong here without coming in Legally I love it when people say you you don't want immigrants I want freaking immigrants I want people to immigrate to this country that means you come to the door and you knock hello uh yes can I help you I I hear to citizenship man um okay uh what's uh what's your name Antonio Montana an Antonio Montana okay and where are you from Antonio I'm from Kuba you're from C Cuba okay uh you know we're not taking Cubans right now I'm not sure if the if you heard that but in America we're not taking Cubans are you kidding me I want my human rights like your President Joe Biden he says okay I want my $450,000 I want my [ __ ] house M okay you get me a house over here Texas I'm in the Panhandle okay I got many many come and hang out with me man we work the streets I got to Sello okay SAA I got SAA on the other line man okay uh okay Antonio Montana Sosa uh who's Manny again Manny are you kidding Manny had TB he was in a s sanitarium you should have let him out you should have you should have told him he was a horse anyway look guys when alucino comes to the door and he knocks is Antonio Montana you know he SAA all I have in this world is my word and my boss okay I don't break them for knowing me okay how many time you tell me one time one time okay you tell me one time Antonio Montana where' you get a scar like that eating [ __ ] how'd you got to get a star like that eating [ __ ] man huh how'd you do it you tell me okay I got do I hear with NY Antonio Montana you put me in renga I stab him in the chest read him down guys he's in Freedom Town Antonio Montana doing it uh but that's all started because of this complete reach true Net Zero and stop adding to the amount of this heat trapping gas up there oh how do we do that the temperatures will stop going do we do that by us going and like not ever using CO2 again or creating CO2 while China just does it more and ship said products to your house scumming oh let's jump on our private jet and go to China to get those products that's what you probably do Al Gore you know I'm worth a couple hundred million dollars cuz created this whole climate catastrophe [ __ ] right no it's real guys it is the climate changes in the history of time it's always changed don't you guys remember or we just want to pretend now it never happened that this total freaking douche was like it's global warming they went around calling it global global warming for years until people realized it's not global warming it's called climate change because the freaking climate changes on this planet constantly it's never the same and everything Chang is does your life stay the same forever no it changes cuz the Earth is just like a life it changes sometimes it's great sometimes it's not it's a freaking roller coaster ride just like our lives but when you got this Chad over here trying to tell us that oh we got to do more you got to be more responsible what's that honey no Gess up the jet I'll be right there you got the freaking g405 whatever the hell it's called You're jumping in it Gore

in the pants of some girl and he got her pregnant and how he used a condom any of that stuff my kids shouldn't be reading about that just like they shouldn't be reading about how the Guy meets another guy and how there's two guys who are parents that's not appropriate for children to be reading and if someone has two guys for parents or two women for parents that's who should be reading those books you don't force them on kids who aren't thinking that way because they have a normal family situation and you're forcing on ideology that is ridiculously insane I mean this is is what I'm really fearing most we have this crazy solar total eclipse coming up earthquake today I've never had one on the east coast ever we had two today and there's apparently going to be a massive one on Monday just right on the tale of the highest office in the land completely disregarding Easter Sunday and focusing on an insane group of people that have decided to take go over this country and make it seem like everybody's attacking them it's the most ridiculous thing in the world when I see all these people like it's so dangerous to be in TR right now what is I don't get it I don't get it no one gives a [ __ ] no one cares go live your life what we don't want is you going out there and making everything about you and saying well now we have to be in this and now you have to change us this and sports we got to be able to do this no stick with what your chromosomes say this is not fair I'm born a man if I deci that I feel a certain way I have certain muscles that women are not born with I have a certain lung capacity that women do not have if I decide to switch I still have those advantages that doesn't sh change just because I feel a certain way but we're living in clown world where people are like I feel that way therefore I am that and if I took these couple of things now I am that and you look at them on a freaking stage and you want to cry with laughter cuz you're like that what is going on here I got two feminine looking normal this is creation and then you got a dude a mule in the middle of the stage trying to I don't long hair in it with with lipstick on and again no offense I'm not being trying to be offensive what I am trying to say is stop indoctrinating stop going up to children and saying hey why don't you join our don't tell your parents oh if you're feeling like you should just do rebel against your parents and join the and you'll hear these crazy chant as these people walk on the street and they'll say we're here we're and we're here to take your children and we're coming for your children they say this stuff and you should be frightened I have no problem with what you do at home what you do on the street when you're with the person you love with you're with somebody who's in a group and you're out there and you guys are you could do whatever you want when you're there when you start publicizing that you have to be involved in every conversation and people have to now change English to call you that don't make sense my child saying to someone how are they doing when it's one person standing in a room it's just Insanity it's just stupid pick something okay well I feel like I'm again a camel whatever the freaking hell I'll pick it but this whole idea that we can't even stick to two simple things and then focus on the other issues in life it's like no every day is about about these conversations that we're not allowed to have like I'm going to get in trouble for t for doing this show I may get a strike just because I'm here speaking my truth and this is unfortunate I probably should just erase this freaking feed because they're going to do that that's these guys are dicks you know what I mean YouTube Just total dicks and I'm already in the hole with them I already demonetized you know we can't get more than a 100 views for anything I've been here for five years in a row every day this isn't anything new it's always been there this way they just finally told me that I'm a harm I'm a harmful channel in their in their mind and so as it goes I will always be here putting on this show and unless you guys tell somebody new it will always be just us and they'll never bring other people in on their own accord and say hey you know what this is a cool show we could bring people together no I'm I'm a harmful Channel that's the way they see me on all platforms and it's crazy that's just like more proof that it's like dude can't get out of the hole you're in but um I still show up 1922 days in a row and look at this they're already prepping Us in New York City earthquakes are generally tiny and unnoticed like we have them all the time we don't we don't in January 1.7 magnitude earthquake was recorded in atoria last April 3.6 and they're trying to say all these things okay there was a 5.8 in Virginia and led to the evacuation of City Hall in mid Town Office Buildings in Manhattan that's Virginia's 6 hours away 7 hours away this was very close to home here and when they're starting to already prep You by saying look we have them all the time Monday is looking more scary you know you start to get concerned about it yeah I have a feeling I'm G to get in trouble guys by doing this feed tonight you know I've been keeping it so clean no no politics just doing the comedy news I even intended to just come in here tonight chat for a little bit and then go and build these beat seats but I'm pretty sure what I said there over the last 15 20 minutes is the best rant ever and it will be taken down because of that uh just like many of my other shows on YouTube um they pulled down another one the other day where I did the Dr Evil and Bill Gates conversation that wound up becoming a truth instead of a f comedy uh and so I'll continue to do these uh take these moments to the extreme and unfortunately you may have to find me somewhere else because I think I'm just about out of steam here on YouTube right I mean we uh I think we're at 15,200 subscribers I don't even know that's after this much time it should be 150,000 at least and we um but we're still uh at past 15,000 now and it's it seems like every time I'm getting close to staying on track I fall off it's like I'm I'm on the wagon or something and then I fall off and I just have these Rants and I get into these things I'm flipping on freaking Al Gore you know and uh so by the way if for some reason tomorrow you're like why isn't Mark live I am live I'll be live on X I'll be live on Rumble I will be live if possible on Mark inspires TV on YouTube as well that's our backup Channel there um but there's a good chance that that this gets me a strike or something just by being myself and it baffles it it baffles the mind um how words can be so offensive and how I could be taken off the air for words when they're just literally thoughts uh frustrations if you can't let out your frustrations in a world then you know we're not living in a free world we're not we're living in a very much controlled society and the control the mechanism is a thumb on the neck they're putting more IRS AG I mean there's so many

dock he's waiting in his ride for you ain't gonna hump to where he's parked next to gramsci burgers okay do my best to talk us up the number of cyber psycho attacks in the city is on the rise now that's probably not news to you but this issue matters to me for a few reasons there are people who say cyberpsychosis can be treated right and i know exactly how that sounds but i believe even an unproven therapy is still better than oh but remember you're not there to execute [Music] anybody foreign [Applause] foreign ample indeed let's roll mind if i ask you something right off the bangle would you rather live in pieces mr nobody die ripe old and smelling slightly of urine sometimes in a blaze of glory smelling near like posies yeah just a pet topic of mine you mean the hell riddles no mr v ontology all right listen close scanning a serious job now playing gargantuan compared to smashing up a scav home hang on i got a question my own now could have had jackie or t-book sitting here could have just done this on comms call me old-fashioned but i like to look anyone i do biz with in the eye kimbo had the pleasure of meeting the jackster in the past and sweet tea bug helped this brother out two years ago so here we are besides all that got a special little pre-mission just for you but we'll get to that let me hear it what's the job there's this prototype tech a biochip to be precise jobs to grab it simple yeah guessing it belongs to a court mm-hmm arisaka surely that's no problem got a feeling this could be a start of a beautiful friendship you worked this out got a plan two things first a conundrum with the maelstrom boys needs active resolving that second to rendezvous simple client who brought us the jobs anxious she wants to parlay with one of the team client what's her thing why she need to meet woman's name's evelyn parker veterinary wasn't easy put the word out i was looking for any kind of intel and some brothers from pacifica got back to me oh and the convo anyway our little client insisted on meeting someone with skin in the game you know who'll be there for it all yours truly will be remote t-bug ain't no people person and jagg is only good at some things i know you know what i mean pretty much leaves you what's the issue needs resolving with maelstrom got a beef jumped a military convoy got away with the gear corp don't even know male 1 now see convoy was carrying the flathead a little combat bod a prototype and i need me that bit of high grade military tent because if we don't get that vibe we don't get no soccer chip and we sure as hell don't get no happily ever after but don't get excited it's a single used toy now i slide out purchase the damn thing from maelstrom problem is i did so from a gentleman by the name of brick i say win because brick was the leader three days after we'd sealed our deal his friend and gang mate one simon randle aka royce playing dropped his ass royce is in charge now and i got no way of knowing if he aims to honor his predecessor's word to add to this shitstorm one meredith styled of militech has developed an interest in said convoy [Music] corporal agent what you playing at uh asking after the convoy as if her life depended on finding it the one lead she's got zip tied in her trunk sounds like she was waiting on the transport got stood up monochrome in the back is probably her chief suspect got nothing from him or on him so she's keeping him just in case she needs to find the stolen gear before her boss is learning she [ __ ] up well mr v that is some impressive deduction naturally use that intel as you please preferably well of course to do so you'll need that frazzled cat's info i think i got everything time i got to work well that's just music to my ears i'll set up the meet with miss parker at lizzie's flat head though it's gonna be all you one more thing mr v even foreign with me it feels more like he tangled us up with maelstrom and militech there's this combat bot military prototype maelstrom clapped it then decks paid to take it off their hands just before the gang goons had to switch up in management all right heard about that royce versus brick hostile takeover she stands to be you don't sound thrilled what do you know about him he's [ __ ] wack something special junk royce snorts chrome then there's the other thing gotta meet the client who put the job on the table evelyn parker you oh what's next gonna do right around in his limo chat chicks up on the hollow parker wants to meet someone on the crew dex gave me the knock he must know what he's doing so how do you want to play this bell strummer parker what's first uh i think i have to see her first see what she's like what she's after in that case foreign come on [Applause] on and whatever she's investigating it's made her a lot of enemies she'd do best to cut it out if you catch my drift okay look i know how it sounds but somebody would have taken this gig anyway right i don't know maybe there's an angle you can play here yeah that way oh foreign oh emma new around here foreign v got a rat problem on my block who doesn't right thing is these rats are human sized look just like tiger claws too biggest one is a certain tacky kimochi so do your fixer a solid and neutralize her ass will ya deets attached [Music] you forgot to spin on me we're closed right now foreign oh m foreign [Music] golem is ah foreign yes who will take care of my mama policemen him [ __ ] i thought i'd never see my kids thank you enough foreign [Music] oh foreign [Music] okay foreign baby oh [Music] foreign so curious the name lizzie's is that the owner not for a long while no and it's none too sweet a story now i'm just flat interested real lizzy ran a strip joint out of this place back in the day lizzy's bar girls were paid right insured even had decent security good spot all at home stories of the golden day inevitable demise in the inevitable drink over sweet memories it's all what makes the tall tales easier to swallow so what went wrong tiger claws shut up lizzy is real bad ones no hesitation lizzy blasted the guy's balls off gang came back the next day this was done tigers gave this place up to the mocks in the end luckily they kept their hands organized quick big boss now is susie q but the signs stayed up out of respect biz booms to this day i'm looking for evelyn parker you know if she's here who's asking big tipper generous when i get the answers i'm looking for appreciate the gesture truly but afraid i don't get paid to talk opposite actually yeah it's all right mateo just waiting for this one evelyn parker i knew it was you as soon as you walked in only tequila i drank how do you know i like to know everything about the people i work with either that or it was just a lucky guess why we meeting here any particular reason actually it doesn't seem much like your thing this place i'll take that as a compliment come on we'll be in the lounge mateo anyone asks we're not here so uh maybe electro sex effective and trustworthy i hope he wasn't overselling i'm good at what i do got a solid crew on my back too never once botched a job you do realize i expect more of you than scraping street corner data terms much much more i'm the best and i know what i'm getting into dex is clear the job's high risk by the way you work together long you index yeah i'm waiting you writing dex's bio i hate to disappoint but i just don't know much in other words you hardly know each other yet he fingered you for this job huh curious [ __ ] buzz decks right now if you're getting cold i doubt he'd add anything i haven't already heard anything i'd really like to hear for that matter there's only one other bunch that's worse than fixers in that respect used car salesmen i'll go with my gut for now let's cut to the chase what do you got for me your target i trust you know what it is relic secure your soul trinket key tech in the program actually we're tangling with arasaka making this heist one dangerous risky [ __ ] arasaka has poured billions into personality transfer technology i just want the data on this one the chip is tucked away inside kompecki plaza the hotel you ever been oh it seems to have quite the touch with that hotel chain but i gotta say kenpecki in tokyo still leaks above the rest two are identical to each other japan's staff huh the service can't be beat singapore paris washington all the rest act like charity case cousins by comparison well it's hard to argue with that true so where's this chip hiding exactly in a suite on the top floor occupied by your name you're a nobu arasaka in night city i guess the scream sheets weren't lying this time it's on the lips of everyone in the city sapuro arasaka's only surviving son heir apparent to the arasaka empire in town please could it be emperor is prepared to seed his throne after 150 years doubted only a handful of people in night city know what the arasaka's real plans are telling me you're one of them so we're not jumping the corp we're jumping yarn over arasaka himself yorinobu is a puppet he lost all his cards years ago when he failed to do daddy's bidding saburo's had yuri's balls in a vice for years he might just turn the screw and crush them outright if he learns his son's up to nothing if you so still know he'll be [ __ ] harassaka top dog like yarn over is bound to have an army on call hotel's probably a goddamn fortress but too yorinobu keeps exactly no hustle around not one guard got rid of them a long time ago huh why is that surely you know what they say about otasaka intel sneeze in night city and a blossom drops from a cherry tree in tokyo look if you've got any spare aces up your sleeve now's the time to show them now this should make your prick perk up yori nobu recently swiped the chip from an arasaka laboratory he's made a deal with netwatch aims to sell it to them have you spotted my ace yet or two nope don't buy it now watch his integrity rest on their neutrality why would they tarnish their rep by procuring stolen goods netwatch provides net security for all corporations and collects eddies in the millions for it but in this day and age everyone's in the game and no one can afford to be a saint to win one has to go all in [Music] intelligence on his enemies that doesn't matter in the least because you'll make sure the transaction never happens and i get the check fine so no arasaka's security on the device cause yorinobu wasted away its secret now where is he hiding it likely in a specialized container one that mimics an organic neural environment on the outside it looks like an ordinary briefcase and the case is you'll see for yourself soon enough provided we're done gossiping about the artisakas read a bit about your nobu study finance and biotech in tokyo probably to please his father saburo was grooming him to be a successor but then yorinobu cut himself off from the corp join the steel dragons nomads from tokyo that flash of youthful rebellion ended like it usually does yorinobu returned to the fold but you know your stuff but that's only one side of him there's another an intelligent man who has his own designs on the corp could be another power hungry corporal dick like so many others ever try to imagine what life might be like for an emperor's son you have everything yet you are no one nothing at least as long as you remain in saburo arasaka's shadow i sympathize it's a vulnerability i understand well and when you plan to exploit fully okay what's next now comes the best part follow me got something for you should help you plan brain dance from kompecki plaza being done [Music] i think bds are only good for fondling virtual tips jacking off two in those boxes it can be a very useful tool analyzing details human perception even boosted doesn't grasp exactly what you need so what's on the tape yorinobu suite the glorious interior you'll need to locate the relic yourself hope i grabbed enough detail to make that possible hold up mean to say you recorded this mm-hmm bd-rec implant why you object she's a mox too besides we go back uh years v

Introducing CSS themeable Hybrid HTML dropdown field to replace select fields
greetings the hybrid html drop-down field is a field that is used to display a list of check box options it can either be built using an existing select drop-down or it can actually be built using json objects both of which uh initialize a drop-down field which is made of pure uh html and css and therefore can be teamed and styled according to um your your page look and feel by default if you have a select field it renders in a in a white background and a black font this is the browser rendering it and does not adopt or and does not adapt to your page look and feel um furthermore a drop down select has got limited uh styling options to it so uh from this you can actually convert to something that looks like this whereby the hybrid drop down will automatically look at what is the background color of your page and as well as the font of the of the page and adapt the drop down accordingly there are various styling options that are available and there's a whole list here on the on the documentation site that you can look at but briefly you can obviously set the background and the color uh for using css styles for the active and and hover field so by default it picks blue and white uh which is the standard browser for for drop down fields but you can obviously change this to have your own hover and label active label um colors you can also reverse the automatic color selection so instead of having a drop down that is matching uh the background of your page in the front of the color you can actually reverse those and use the background color for the font and the uh the font color for the background rendering as such furthermore you can also select custom colors altogether for the background and the font and this is passed at initialization initialization can be done either directly on the elements html elements you're going to convert into a drop down so that can be a select field or it could be for example a json object like like over here and um in the the setting the option settings can be passed as data attributes or they can be passed as um a json object within the um the hybrid initialization [Music] constructor so here in this case the color is set to purple and the background color to light blue and this is how it renders but note how the um the the although the the hover has picked the right color the active field is still set to its default blue and white and and that can be obviously set using these uh initial css styles and last but not least you can completely override the automated coloring and and this is by setting the colorize setting to false and and then there is a whole series of css rules that need to be sent which i have given an example here in order to actually set whatever color you want whatever background you need whatever um highlighted active fields and the background and going on the styling you can also have the opening of the drop down to be right align rather than left align you can get it to slide up these are done using classes set on the element that you're going to convert you can have both of them combined so you are opening write a line and opening at the top and this how it renders [Music] you can also set out uh what is the maximum height for the drop down uh field so in so there the plug-in sets up its own a number of variables that can be used to do this so in this case the the variable of the the option height and then multiply by two which means by default only two options are shown um in the in the drop down you can also get the drop down to disappear altogether and have your field open and showing all the option list by default uh this is similar to what the select field does when it is in multiple choice it opens up by default um and when you have the drop down set to none uh the option for the drop down set to none um you can also force the check boxes to be visible so by default there are no no check boxes but you can actually push push the the check boxes to be visible and this makes it obviously more uh intuitive as to what the user needs to do it needs to check some of these options and also what happens is that by default when the drop down is none and the plugin adopts a single column list however this can further be customized to have a grid layout and therefore define the grid columns settings such as here we have two columns and the uh drop down will show uh without any drop down though the html field will show it uh two column layouts so this is as far as the styling is concerned and and i invite you to have a look through these

section one of National Geographic magazine Volume one number two this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by MJ frank africa its past and future part 1 by Gardner Green Hubbard 1822 to 1897 the National Geographic magazine volume 1 1889 number 2 Africa its past and future Africa the oldest of the continents containing the earliest remains of man and the birthplace of European civilization is the last to be explored long before the temples of India or the palaces of Nineveh were built before the hanging garden of babylon was planted the pyramids of Cheops and Safran had been constructed the temples of Palmyra and Thebes filled with worshippers Greece owes its civilization to Egypt it's beautiful orders of architecture came from the land of the Nile the civilization of Egypt had grown old and was in its decay when Rome was born think what a vast abyss of time separates us from the days of Romulus and Remus and yet the pyramids of Egypt were then older by a thousand years than all the centuries that have passed since then for ages upon ages Africa has refused to reveal its secrets to civilized man and though explorers have penetrated it from every side it remains today the Dark Continent this isolation of Africa is due to its position and formation it is a vast ill-formed triangle with few good harbors without rivers for ocean vessels lying mainly in the torrid zone a fringe of low scorched land reeking with malaria extends an unbroken monotony all along the coast threatening death to the adventurous explorer our ignorance of Africa is not in consequence of its situation under the equator for South America in the torrid zone has long been known there the explorer easily penetrates its recesses on its Great Rivers the Orinoco amazon and la plata for they are navigable from the ocean far into the interior the amazon 3,000 miles from its mouth is only 210 feet above the ocean level and with its branches is navigable for 10,000 miles Africa also has three great rivers one on each side of this peninsula on the north the Nile the river of the past empties into the Mediterranean Sea but its navigation is soon interrupted by five cataracts so that the camel the ship of the desert bears the wears of Europe from the foot of the first cataract far up the river 800 miles to Berber whence they are again shipped by boat 2,000 miles to gone to coral close to the lakes Albert and Victoria Nyanza 4000 feet above the sea level 4,200 miles by water from the Mediterranean on the west the Congo the river of the future empties into the Atlantic Ocean under the equatorial Sun but it's navigation is also impeded by successive Falls extending from its mouth to stanley pool then there is almost uninterrupted navigation on the river and it's tributaries for 10,000 miles far inland the headwaters of its northeastern branches interlace with the waters of the Nile another branch rises in Lake Tanganyika in Eastern Africa while the main River finds its source higher up in the mountain north of Lake Niassa 5,000 feet above the sea level on the east the Zambezi the great river of southern Africa empties into the Indian Ocean opposite Madagascar the navigation of its main branch the Shire is interrupted not far from the ocean the Zambezi itself is navigable to the rapids near Tait 260 miles from its mouth while one or two hundred miles higher up are the mighty Falls of Victoria only exceeded in volume of water by the Niagara and nearly equal in height in whatever direction Europeans attempted to penetrate Africa they were met by insurmountable obstacles communication by water was prevented by Falls near the mouths of Great Rivers the greater part of the coast was very unhealthy and we're not unhealthy a desert was behind it but these obstacles which formerly prevented exploration now stimulate the traveler the modern explorations of Africa commenced 100 years ago when Mungo Park crossed the desert of Sahara and lost his life in descending the niger from that time to the present travelers and ever-increasing numbers have entered Africa from every side some who have entered from the Atlantic or Pacific coasts have been lost in its wilds and two or three years after have emerged on the opposite coast others have passed from the coast and have never been heard from Zanzibar has been a favourite starting point for the Lake Region of Central Africa Stanley started from Zanzibar on his search for Livingstone with two white men but returned alone Cameron's set out by the same path with two companions but upon reaching the Lake Region he was alone Keith Johnson two or three years ago started with two Europeans within a couple of months he was gone probably every second man and down by fever or accident has left his bones to bleach along the road Drummond a recent explorer of Africa chose a route by the Zambezi and Shire rivers as healthier and more desirable let us hear his experience early in his journey at the missionary station of livingstonia on Lake Nyanza he entered a missionary home it was spotlessly clean English furniture in the room books lying about dishes and the cupboards but no missionary he went to the next house it was the school the benches and books were there but neither scholars nor teacher next to the blacksmith's shop there were the tools and anvil but no blacksmith and so on to the next and the next all in perfect order but all empty a little way off among the mimosa groves under a huge granite mountain were graves there were the missionaries the niger is the only river in all africa navigable by small steamers from the ocean but the niger does not give access to the interior as it rises within 100 miles of the ocean and after making a great bend around the mountains of the Guinea coast empties into the ocean only about 5 degrees south of its source after a course of 2,500 miles its main branch the Banu or mother of waters is navigable 500 or 600 miles above its junction with the Niger the country through which it flows is thickly peopled and well cultivated but the natives are fierce and warlike and have until recently prevented any exploration of the Bannu the mountains of Africa as mountain ranges determine the course of rivers influence the rainfall and temper the climate we must understand the mountain system of Africa before we can understand the content as a whole standing on the Citadel at Cairo and looking South you see a sandstone ridge which gradually grows in altitude and width of base as it runs far away to the South even to the Cape of Good Hope at the other end of Africa successive ranges of mountains follow the coast sometimes near at others two or three hundred miles inland the land in the latter case ascending from the coast the only breaks in this long chain are where the Zambezi and Limpopo forced their way to the Indian Ocean in Abyssinia on the Red Sea there is a range of snowy mountains 14,000 feet in height a few hundred miles to the southeast and near Lake Victoria Nyanza almost under the equator is another snow-capped mountain Kilimanjaro eighteen thousand seven hundred feet high the highest mountain in Africa and the mountains of Masai land a continuation of the Abyssinian mountains another range apparently an offshoot of the long range from the Red Sea forms a wall 100 miles long and 10,000 feet high on the east of Lake Niassa separating the waters of that Lake from the Indian Ocean this range continues to the Zambezi south of this river the mountains rise 8,000 to 10,000 feet in height in Cape Colony are several ranges of mountains the highest peak is kompis berg 8500 feet in the eastern centre of africa and the equatorial region is an elevated plateau and which is the lake region then there is a sudden rise and a gradual descent towards the Atlantic there are a few continuous ranges of mountains on the western coast but at Cameroon there is a cluster of mountains reaching an elevation of 13,000 100 feet and south of Morocco some of the peaks of the Atlas Mountains reach an elevation of 12,000 to 13,000 feet but they have little if any influence on the rainfall or temperature of the country it will be seen from this statement that Eastern Africa has high mountain ranges rising into an elevated plateau that the land in Equatorial Africa gradually descends toward the west and northwest until within one or two hundred miles of the Atlantic Ocean when the descent is rapid to the low and unhealthy coastlands through equatorial africa runs the congo the land north of the congo gradually rising to an elevation of about two thousand feet and then descending to 1,200 feet at lake chad south of the congo the land rises to an elevation of 3,000 feet and retains this elevation far south into the portuguese territory careful computations have been made to ascertain the average elevation of the continent the mean of the most careful estimates is a little over 2,000 feet the interior is therefore elevated above the miasmic influences of the coast but exactly what effect this elevation has upon the temperature can only be ascertained after careful investigation and a series of observations north of Guinea and Senegambia the coast is less unhealthy but as the desert of Sahara extends to the ocean the country is of little value and is therefore left to the native tribes unclaimed by Europeans in the international scientific series it is stated that there are in Africa ten active volcanoes four on the west coast and six on the east but I have not found any corroboration of this report and think it very doubtful if there are any volcanoes now in eruption the Kilimanjaro and Cameroon were formerly active volcanoes for the craters still exist in the South the and fields are of volcanic ash formation Equatorial Africa the lake region of Africa stretches from the headwaters of the Upper Nile 3 degrees south to the waters of the Zambezi 15 degrees south a lake region unequaled in extent and volume of water except by our Lakes here is the Victoria Nyanza the queen of inland seas 4,000 feet above the sea level and a long series of lakes great and small at equal elevation the more striking our abang viola to the southwest the grave of living stone and Niassa on the southeast in their depths the Nile the Congo River and the Shire the main branch of the Zambezi have their source the great belt in equatorial africa situated between the 15th parallel of north latitude and the 15th parallel of south latitude has continuous rains is everywhere well watered and has a rich and fertile soil some portions are thickly populated and it is capable of sustaining a dense population north and south of this belt there are two other belts of nearly equal width in each of these belts there are wet and dry seasons with abundant rain for the crops the heaviest rainfall in the North belt is in June while in the South belt it is in December the rainfall gradually grows less toward the north and also toward the south until it ceases in the desert of Sahara on the north and in the desert of Kalahari on the south on the edge of these deserts are Lake Chad on the north and Leighton gommi on the south north of the desert of Sahara and south of the desert of Kalahari there is an abundant rainfall a healthy climate and fertile soil Morocco Algiers and Tripoli on the Mediterranean are in the north region and Zulu land the Orange Free State and Cape Colony in the corresponding region of the south that portion of Africa north of the Equator is three or four times greater than that south and the Sahara Desert and Lake Chad are several times greater than the Kalahari Desert and Leighton gommi the Sahara Desert the waterless ocean three times as large as the Mediterranean extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea broken only by the narrow valley of the Nile it is interspersed with oases with the valleys of many dry streams and with some mountains 8,000 feet it has the hottest climate in the world travelers tell us that in Upper Egypt and Nubia eggs may be baked in the hot sands that the soil is like fire and the wind like a flame that in other parts of the desert the sand on the rocks is sometimes heated to 200 degrees in the daytime while in the following night the thermometer falls below freezing point in crossing the desert the traveler will hardly need a guide for the road is too clearly marked by the bones and skeletons that point the way lake chad receives the drainage of a considerable area of country in the dry season it has no outlet and is then about the size of Lake Erie in the wet season it is said to be five times as large its level rises by 20 or 30 feet until it overflows into the desert of Sahara forming a stream which runs northward for several hundred miles and is finally lost in a great depressed plane in the southern part of Africa the level of Lake and Ngami rises and falls in a similar manner through the great equatorial belt runs the congo one of the wonderful rivers of the world the more we know of this river and its tributaries the more we are impressed by its greatness and importance its principal source is in the mountain which separates Lake Niassa from Lake Tanganyika between 300 and 400 miles west of the Indian Ocean thence it runs southerly through Lake Bangui Ola on leaving this Lake it takes a Northwest course running from 12 degrees south latitude to 2 degrees north latitude thence running South Westerley to the ocean nearly 3,000 miles the river sang kuru its principal tributary empties into the congo some distance above stanley pool on the south the mouths of the sang coral were discovered by stanley who was struck by the size and beauty of the river and by the lakes which probably connected by a second outlet with the congo but he level realized the magnitude of the river even before the journey of Stanley Portuguese explorers had crossed several large streams far to the south of the Congo the Congo the Kasai and the low mami and explored them for several hundred miles but were unable to follow them to their mouths in 1885 and 1886 Whisman and the Belgian explorers sailed up the sanku route to the streams discovered by the Portuguese the next largest branch is the obagi now called Oh bong goo Wella which flows into the Congo on the westerly side of the continent a little south of the Equator an expedition organized by the Congo Free State steamed up this river in the winter of 1887 and 1888 and solved the problem so long discussed of the outlet of the Wella the expedition left the Congo and the steamer unev on October 26th 1887 it passed several Rapids and steamed at 21 degrees 55 feet east longitude when it was stopped by the unev all running on a rock and the opposition of hostile natives here it was only sixty six miles from westernmost point on Louella reached by Juncker and in the same latitude each stream running in the same direction leaving no room to doubt that the two waters unite the little kabali which rises a little to the west of wada lie in the mountains of sudan is the initial branch of this river which bears successively the name of kabali whele and Doru and empties into the congo under the name of Oban ji after a course of 1,500 miles the discharge of water from the Congo is only a little less than that from the Amazon and is said to be three times as great as the discharge from the Mississippi Grenfell the English missionary and traveler says there is no part of the Congo Basin more than 100 miles from navigable water what the railroad does for America the steamboat will do for the Congo Free State on its 7,200 miles of navigable water end of section 1 recording by MJ Frank Portland Oregon section 2 of National Geographic magazine Volume one number two this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by MJ frank africa its past and future part 2 by Gardner Greene Hubbard 1822 - 1897 appropriation of Africa by Europe the English French Germans and Belgians have within a few years planted colonies in Africa they believe it is more for their interests to colonize Africa than to permit their surplus population to emigrate to America these countries realize the necessity of creating new markets if they are to continue to advance in Africa the colonies must depend upon the home country and open new fields for manufacturers and commerce they know that in Equatorial Africa there are more than 100 million people wanting everything even close the whole coast of Africa on the Mediterranean Sea the Atlantic and Indian Oceans from the Red Sea to the Isthmus of Suez is claimed by European nations with the exception of two or three small inhospitable and barren strips of coast England occupies Egypt and will hold it for an indefinite period France has its colonies in Tripoli Algiers and Morocco and on the Atlantic coast its factories in Senegambia it seeks their route from Algiers across the desert to Lake Chad and from Senegambia up the Senegal by steamer thence across the country by rail to the head of navigation on the Niger and down that river to Timbuktu England occupies Sierra Leone the gold and slave coasts the Delta and Valley of the Niger and its branch the Banu it has factories on these rivers and small steamers plying on them and Sikhs Timbuktu by the river niger it controls almost the entire region where the palm oil is produced Timbuktu long before Africa was known to Europe was the center of a large trade in European and Asia at ik Goods caravans crossed the desert of Sahara from Timbuktu north to the Mediterranean and east to ganda coral carrying out slaves gold and ivory and bringing back European and Asia at at goods sandwiched between the English possessions Liberia struggles for existence its inhabitants fast degenerating into barbarism joining the English possessions on the Gold Coast 2 degrees north of the Equator are the German possessions of Cameroon with high mountains and invigorating breezes but the land at the foot is no more favourable to the European than the guinea coast one or two hundred miles in the interior of this part of the continent the land rapidly rises to the table land of equatorial africa rich and fertile resembling the valley of the congo possibly habitable by europeans next the French occupied the Ocoee its branches and the coast to the Congo and claim the country inland to the possessions of the Congo Free State under Monsieur Brasa they have thoroughly explored the country to the river Congo and have established factories at France Ville and other places the Congo Free State comes next it holds on the coast only the mouth of the river its main possessions lying in the interior Belgium is the only country that has planted colonies inland like all the interior of Equatorial Africa the valley of the Congo is well watered and has continuous rains the land is rich and fertile butt is practically inaccessible and before any extensive commerce can be carried on must be connected by railroad with the ocean the company de Congo has just completed a survey for a railroad on the south side of the Congo from Matadi opposite VV - Stanley pool it did not encounter any unusual difficulties and has submitted the plans and projects to the king of Belgium for his approval south of the Congo Free State are the Portuguese possessions of Angola Benguela and Musa Metis Portugal the first country to circumnavigate Africa and the first to colonize it has for several centuries had factories and carried on a large trade with Africa exchanging clothes and blankets for slaves gold and ivory it claimed the valley of the Congo but the claim has been reduced and is now bounded for a considerable distance on the north by a lion running due east and west on the 6th parallel of south latitude they have good harbours at st. Paul de Luongo Benguela and Musa Metis on the Atlantic coast and the best harbor of Africa at Delagoa Bay on the Indian Ocean the territory claimed will I believe proved to be the most valuable in Africa it is well watered by numerous tributaries of the Congo and by the Zambezi and its branches it is higher than the Congo Valley and is therefore more healthy several portuguese english and german travelers have crossed and re-crossed this part of the continent and the portuguese have some small settlements on the coast and in the interior the portuguese of the present generation have not the enterprise and trading spirit of their forefathers and are doing a very little for the settlement of the country south of the Portuguese possessions England claims from the Portuguese possessions on the Atlantic to their possessions on the Pacific including Namaqua and Cape Colony the Transvaal and Zulu land Namaqua and de mile and formally claimed by the Germans are now put down on some of the maps as belonging to England the only harbour on the coast is held by the English and from the character of the country we are not surprised that the Germans have abandoned it for we are told that the coast is sandy and waterless deficient in good harbors devoid of permanent rivers washed by never-ceasing surf bristling with reefs and overhung by a perpetual haze north of Zulu land the Portuguese claim the coast to Zanzibar over zanzibar germany has lately assumed the Protectorate under a treaty with the sultan of the country claiming the land from the ocean to the Great Lakes then England again a little to the north and far to the west of Zanzibar the rival of Germany in its claims the English have factories west of Zanzibar and a regular route up the Zambezi and Shire rivers with a single portage to Lake Niassa and a road to Lake Tanganyika they have steamers on each of the lakes and several missionary and trading stations the latest news from this part of Africa says the route to the lakes has been closed and the missionaries and merchants murdered north of the English possessions the coast to the Red Sea is barren and inhospitable it has little rain and no harbors and is so worthless that it has not been claimed by any European nation north of this region is Abyssinia on the Indian Ocean and red sea a mountainous country with deep valleys rich and fertile but very unhealthy three or four thousand feet above the level of the sea is a healthier country inhabited by a race of rugged Mountaineers whom it has been impossible to dispossessed of their lands north of Abyssinia on the see Italy has a small colony at Misawa and England a camp but sue Hakeem the only parts of the coast not claimed by Europeans are inhospitable without population or cultivation of any kind the Belgians have spent many millions in the exploration of the Congo and its tributaries they have 18 small steamers making trips from Leopoldville up the river to Stanley Falls and up its branches supplying the main stations in the basin of the Congo the Congo Free State unlike all other African colonies is free to all merchants of any nation can establish factories carry on trade and enjoy the same privileges and equal facilities with the Belgians the valley of the Congo and the plateau of the Great Lakes have a similar climate and soil but the Congo is easier of access provisions are cheaper more readily obtained and the natives are less warlike the Congo Free State will therefore be more rapidly settled than any other part of Africa excepting Cape Colony the trade with these countries is carried on by European companies under Royal Charter with quasi sovereign powers for ruling the country and governing the natives as well as for trading with them England Germany and Portugal subsidize steamship companies which make regular trips along the western coast stopping at the different stations from this statement it will be seen that England occupies the healthiest portion of Africa Cape Colony the most fertile valleys the Nile and the Niger the richest Gold Fields Gold Coast and Transvaal that Portugal comes next claiming the most desirable portion of Equatorial Africa north of Cape Colony and south of the Congo but that it is unable to colonize this country which will inevitably fall under the control of England that the claim Algiers and Senegambia and are contending with England for the trade of Timbuktu and the Upper Valley of the Niger that Germany after vain attempts to penetrate the interior from Cameroon and Angra pequena has planted her flag at Zanzibar and has determined to contest with England the lake region and the great plateaus of Central Africa while Italy imitating the other states tries in vain to obtain a footing on the Red Sea worthless if obtained population the population of Africa is roughly estimated at 200 million about 18 to a square mile as against 88 in Europe it is supposed that Africa was originally inhabited by the Hottentots or Bushmen who are now found only in southwestern Africa and by the pygmies or Dwarfs scattered about central Africa who some say belong to the same group this group is noted for its dwarfed stature generally under five feet but whether their size is natural or due to privation and scanty food is not certainly known the Hottentot language is distinct from any other known form of speech the ban to occupy the greater part of Africa south of the Equator they probably formerly inhabited northeastern Africa but were driven from their homes by the Hammonds the band to resemble the Negro in their general character color and physique but their language shows essential differences there are countless tribes of Bantu each tribe having its own language yet there was originally a primeval Bantu mother tongue from which all the dialects of this immense region are undoubtedly derived the idioms of this family are generally known as the a literal class of languages north of the Bantu are the Negroes proper occupying the greater part of Africa between five degrees and 15 degrees north latitude the Negro tribes are multitudinous and though alike in their main physical features are diverse in their speech north of the Negro are the Nuba fula group apparently indigenous to Africa but without anything in common with the other indigenous groups their name pulao or fula means yellow and their color serves to distinguish them from the negro the Hottentot Bantu Negro and fula though distinct have each of them the agglutinative forms of speech the ham i'ts are found along the valley of the Nile in Abyssinia and portions of the Sudan the shemitish tribes occupy the larger part of the Sudan bounded on the east by the Nile and on the north by the Mediterranean and North Atlantic about one-half of the population are Negroes proper 1/4 bantu 1/4 shemites and ham i'ts a few new befool us and Hottentots the Negroes and Bantu are pagans the shemites and ham i'ts muhammadans there are almost innumerable tribes speaking different languages or different dialects over 600 tribes and languages have been classified by Shiloh yet each is generally unintelligible to the other practically speaking there are but two great divisions the Negroes and Bantu occupying equatorial and southern Africa and the ham i'ts and shemites northern Africa but there is no clear-cut line even between the and Negro for many hundred years the Negroes have been taken as slaves and carried into the north of Africa and have furnished the harems with wives and the families with servants the servants are often adopted into the families so that the Negro blood now largely predominates even among the shemites and ham i'ts a broader and more practical distinction than that of language or blood is made by the religion of the African the religion was probably brought from Arabia by the shemites they conquered the country along the coast and exterminated or pushed to the south the former inhabitants then more slowly but steadily Mohammedanism forced its way south by the sword or by proselyting within the last thirty years it has reassumed its proselyting character and is now more rapidly extending than at any previous time it's missionaries are of a race nearly allied to the Negro they live among them adopting their customs and often intermarrying with them they teach of one God whom all must worship and obey and of a future life whose rewards the Negro can comprehend they forbid the sacrifice of human victims to appease the wrath of an offended deity they forbid drunkenness they give freedom to the slave who becomes a and thus elevate and civilize those among whom they dwell the Christian missionary is of a race too far above him he is a white man his Lord and Master he teaches things his mind cannot reach of a future of which he can form no conception he brings a faith to spiritual he Labor's with earnestness and devotion even to the laying down of his life yet the fact remains that Christianity has produced but little impression in civilizing and elevating the people while the influence of Mohammedanism is spreading on every side in passing from the equator south the tribes become more degraded Sir Henry Maine enunciated the theory of the evolution of civilization from the lowest state of the savage in Africa he could have found all stages of civilization in the lowest scale man in his mate living entirely on the fruits of the earth in a nude condition his only house pieces of bark hung from the trees to protect him from the prevailing wind the vulture his guide to where the previous night the lion had fallen on his prey leaving to him the great marrow bones of the elephant or the giraffe his only arms a stick belonging to no tribe with no connection with his fellow man his hand against every man the family relations scarcely recognized it is the land of the gorillas and there seems to be little difference between the man and the ape and both are hunted and shot by the boars in ascending the scale the family and travel relation appears a house built of cane and grass or the bark of the tree a few flocks skill and setting traps for gain the weapon a round stone board through and a pointed stick fastened in the hole then come tribes of a low order of civilization that cultivate a little ground having a despotic king who has wives without limit numbering in some cases it is said 3,000 wives and slaves slaughtered at his death to keep him company and serve him in another life with them cannibalism is common then come tribes of a higher civilization where the power of the chief is limited where iron copper and gold are manufactured and trade is carried on with foreigners where firearms have been substituted for the bow and spear next to the and last of all on the shores of the Mediterranean the civilization of the French and English it is a curious fact that many tribes that had made considerable advance in manufacturing iron and copper have for some time ceased manufacturing that others have retrograded and have lost some of the arts they formerly possessed this decline apparently took place after the muhammadans had conquered North Africa and sent their traders among the Negro tribes whose the few articles the Negro needed cheaper than they could manufacture them and therefore compelled them to give up their own manufacturers such was the effect of free trade on interior Africa the Muhammadans also manufacture less than formally depending more and more upon European manufacturers the enterprise of the white race defies native competition and stifles attempts at native manufacturers there is therefore among the natives a great falling off in the progress of outward culture and the last traces of home industries are rapidly disappearing slave trade one of the department's of this society is the geography of life at the head of all life stands man it is therefore within our province to investigate those questions which more intimately concern and influence his welfare slavery and the slave trade have within the last 200 years affected African life more than all other influences combined and this trade with all its sinister effects instead of diminishing is ever-increasing it has had a marked effect not only on the personal and tribal characters of the inhabitants but on their social organization and on the whole industrial and economic life of the country it has not only utterly destroyed many tribes but it has made the condition of the other tribes one of restless anarchy and insecurity it has been the great curse of Africa and for its existence the nations of Europe have been and are largely responsible the temper and disposition of the negro make him a most useful slave he can endure continuous hard labor live on little has a cheerful disposition and rarely rises against his master there are two kinds of slavery home and foreign the first has always prevailed in Africa prisoners taken in war are sacrificed eaten or made slaves slavery is also a punishment for certain offenses while in some tribes men frequently sell themselves these slaves are of the same race and civilization as their masters they are usually well treated regarded as members of the family to whom a son or daughter may be given in marriage the master often preferring to keep his daughter in the family to marrying her to a stranger this slavery is a national institution of native growth it is said one-half of the inhabitants are slaves to the other half the horrors of the slave trade are unknown in this kind of slavery in the other case the slave is torn from his home carried to people countries and climates with which he is unfamiliar and to scenes and civilization which are uncongenial where his master is of a different color and of another and higher civilization where the master and slave have nothing in common the Spaniards made slaves of the Indians of America but they were incapable of work unfitted for slavery and rapidly faded away in pity for the Indians the Africans were brought to supply their places their ability to labor was proved and they were soon in great demand it is impossible to ascertain the number of slaves imported into America the estimates vary from four million to five million the larger number is probably an underestimate but these figures do not represent the number shipped from Africa for twelve and a half percent were lost on the passage one-third more in the process of seasoning so that out of 100 shipped from Africa not more than fifty lived to be effective laborers Livingstone who studied the question of slavery most carefully estimated that for every slave Expo not less than five were slain or perished and that in some cases only one in ten lived to reach America if the lowest estimate is taken then not less than 20 million Negroes were taken prisoners or slain to furnish slaves to America no wonder that many parts of Africa were depopulated though the slave trade with America has been suppressed thousands are annually stolen and sold as slaves in Persia Arabia Turkey and central and northern Africa wherever Mohammedanism is the religion their slavery exists and to supply the demand the slave trade is carried on more extensively and more cruelly today than at any previous time the great harvest field for slaves is in central Africa between ten degrees south and ten degrees north latitude from this region caravans of slaves are sent to ports on the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea and then shipped to Indochina the Persian Gulf Arabia Turkey and Asia and even to Mesopotamia wherever muscleman are found the English ATS walking are a constant hindrance to this traffic and therefore Osman digna has so often within the past five years attacked Silicon desiring to hold it as a port from which to ship slaves to Arabia other caravans are driven across the desert to Egypt Morocco and the Barbary States portuguese slave traders are found in Central Africa and though contrary to law deal in slaves and owned and work them in large numbers Cameron says that all res a Portuguese trader owned 500 slaves and that to obtain them 10 villages having each from 100 to 200 souls were destroyed and of those not taken some perished in the flames others have want or were killed by wild beasts camera says I do not hesitate to affirm that the worst Arabs are angels of mercy in comparison to the Portuguese and their agents if I had not seen it I could not believe that there could exist men so brutal and cruel and was such gaiety of heart Livingstone says I can consign most disagreeable recollections to oblivion but the slavery scenes come back unbidden and make me start up at night horrified by their vividness if the chief or Pasha of a tribe is called upon for a tribute by his superior if he wishes to build a new palace to furnish his harem or fill an empty Treasury he sends his soldiers armed with guns and ammunition against a negro tribe armed with bows and Spears and captures slaves enough to supply his wants the territory from which slaves are captured is continually extending for as soon as the European traveller has opened a new route into the interior he is followed by the Arab trader who settles down cultivates the ground buys ivory each pair of tusks worth about $500 at Zanzibar or Cairo invites others to come and when they have become acquainted with the country and gathered large quantities of ivory and porters are wanted to carry the tests to the coast a quarrel is instigated with the Negroes were declared captives taken men for Porter's women for the harem the villages are burned and the caravan of slaves and ivory takes its route to the coast where all are sold we are told on good authority that during the past 20 years more slaves have been sent out than formerly were exported in a century Whisman tells us what he has seen in January 1882 we started from our camp 200 souls in all following the road 60 feet wide to a region inhabited by the Bassam gay on the Sun guru and lo mami rivers the huts were about 20 feet square divided into two compartments the furniture consisting of cane and wooden stools floor ceiling and walls covered with grass mats between the huts were Gardens where tobacco tomatoes pineapples and bananas were grown the fields in the rear down to the river were cultivated with sweet potatoes ground nuts sugar cane manioc and millet goats and sheep and fowls and abundance homestead follows homestead in neverending succession from half past 6:00 in the morning we passed without a break through the street of the town until 11:00 when we left it it then still extended far away to the southeast the finest specimens in my collection such as openwork battle-axes inlaid with copper spears and neat utensils I found in this village for years had gone by when I once more found myself near this same village with joy we beheld the broad savannas where we expected to recruit our strength and provisions we encamped near the town and in the morning approached its palm groves the paths were no longer clean no laughter was heard no sign and welcome greeted us the silence of death breathes from the palm trees tall grass covers everything and a few charred poles are the only evidence that man once dwelt there bleached skulls by the roadside and the skeletons of human hands attached to the poles tell the story many women had been carried off all who resisted were killed the whole tribe had ceased to exist the slave dealer was sale lieutenant of tipo type Sir Samuel Baker was largely instrumental in the suppression of the slave trade and while the rule of the English and French in Egypt was maintained slavery was greatly diminished but since the defeat and death of General Gordon the slave trade has rapidly increased and has now carried on more actively than at any other time the only obstacles to this traffic are the presence of Eamonn Pasha at Waddell I the English and American missionaries and English trading stations on Lakes Victoria and Nyanza and Tanganyika the slave trader is united in efforts to destroy Amon Pasha and to expel the missionaries in all European travelers and traders except the Portuguese and for this purpose excite the hostility of the Negro against the foreigner in this they are aided by the Mahdi the work of the Mahdi is largely a missionary enterprise the dervishes who accompany his army are religious fanatics and desire the overthrow of the Christians and Eamonn Pasha as earnestly as the slave trader religious fanaticism is therefore united with the greed of the slave trader to drive out the Christians from the lake region aroused by these reports and influenced by these views cardinal lovey Jerry for 20 years Bishop of Algiers and now primate of Africa last summer started a new crusade in Belgium and Germany against slavery and the slave trade the Cardinal has organized societies and is raising a large fund to equip two armed steam ships for Lake Tanganyika and Lake Meazza the headquarters of the slave trade and offers if necessary to head the band himself the Pope has engaged in the work has contributed liberally to this fund and sent 300 Catholic missionaries to Central Africa the slave trade has carried on with arms and ammunition furnished by European traders without these arms the slave trade could not be successfully carried on for the Negroes could defend themselves against slave traders armed like themselves while the demand for slaves continues the slave trade will exist and will not cease until the factories of European nations are planted in the interior of Africa end of section 2 recording by NJ Frank Portland Oregon section 3 of National Geographic magazine vol 1 number 2 this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the

are told in Phillips's or deposits that the precious metals do not appear to be very generally distributed in Africa more thorough research may show that this view is incorrect and that there are large deposits of iron copper gold and other metals in many parts of the continent gold is found on the Gold Coast in the Transvaal in the Sudan and in Central Africa but has only worked in surface diggings except in the Transvaal but near all these washings gold nuggets of large size and the quartz rock have been discovered in trance fall the mines were worked a long time ago probably by the Portuguese then abandoned and forgotten recently they have been rediscovered and worked by the English in the cop gold field in the trance fall three years ago the lion and zebra elephant and tiger roamed undisturbed in the mountain solitudes where there is now a population of 8,000 with 80 gold-mining come he's having a capital of 18 million $500,000 one-third of which is paid up Barbara's town the chief mining town has two exchanges a theater two music halls canteens innumerable several churches and hotels for banks and a hospital a railroad was opened in December 1887 from the Indian Ocean towards these mines 52 miles and is being rapidly constructed 100 miles farther to Barbara's town there is reason to believe that gold deposits equal to those of Mexico or California will yet be found in several parts of Africa copper is known to exist in the Orange Free State in parts of Central and South Africa and in the District of Catan go south west of Lake Tanganyika which dr. Livingstone was about to explore in his last journey rich copper ores are also found in the Cape of Good Hope Abyssinia and Equatorial Africa large and excellent deposits of iron ore have been found in the Transvaal and in algiers and a railroad 20 miles long has been built to carry it from the Algerian mines to the sea very many tribes in equatorial and Central Africa work both iron and copper ores into different shapes and uses showing that the ore beds must be widely distributed one of the few large diamond fields of the world is found in Greek WA and Cape Colony at the plateau of Kimberley 3,000 feet above the sea the dry diggings have been very productive this tract when first discovered being almost literally sewn with diamonds coal has been found in Zulu land on Lake Nyasa and in Abyssinia the latter coal field is believed to be secondary iron lead zinc and other minerals have been found in the Orange Free State salt beds salt fields salt lakes and salt mines are found in different parts of Africa railroads the peculiar formation of Africa it's long inland navigation interrupted by the Falls near the mouths of its large rivers from connection with the ocean render it necessary to connect the ocean with the navigable parts of the rivers by railroads the Belgians will soon construct a railroad on the southerly side of the Congo to the inland navigable waters of the Congo at Leopoldville following the preliminary surveys lately completed the French may also construct a road from the coast to stanley pool and buy one or the other of these routes the interior of Africa will be opened south of the Congo the Portuguese are constructing a railroad from Benguela into the interior in Cape Colony railroads connect the greater part of the British possessions with the Cape of Good Hope a railroad is also being constructed from Delagoa Bay to the mines and Transvaal Sudan and the upper waters of the Nile can only be opened to a large commerce by a railroad from Surat keen to Berber about 280 miles surveys were made for this road and some work was done upon it just before General Gordon's death the navigation of the Nile above Berber is uninterrupted for many hundred miles below Berber the falls interrupt the navigation the route from GaN de couro down the Nile is by boat to Berber camel to aswan boat to sit and railroad to Cairo and Alexandria making a route so circuitous that it prevents the opening of the Sudan to any extensive commerce in Algiers there are 1,200 miles of railroad and more are being constructed the French are constructing a railroad from the upper part of the Senegal to the headwaters of the niger the english have organized a company to construct a road from the Gold Coast to the mines in the interior it will thus be seen that the railroad has already opened a way into Africa that is sure to be carried on more extensively Stanley expedition there are two methods of exploring Africa one is where an individual like a living stone or a Schweinfurt or a dr. junker departs on his journey alone he joins some tribe as far in the interior on the line of exploration as possible lives with the tribe adopting its habits and manner of life learning its language making whatever explorations he can and when the region occupied by such tribe has been fully explored leaves it for the next farther on this plan requires time and never-failing patience but in this way large portions of Africa have been explored the other way adopted by Cameron Stanley Whisman and the Portuguese explorers has been to collect a party of natives and at their head march across the continent an immense outfit is required to penetrate this shop 'less land and the traveler can only make up his caravan from the bazaar at Zanzibar the ivory and slave traders have made caravanning and profession and everything the Explorer wants is to be found in these bazaars from a tin of sardines to a repeating rifle here these black villains the porters the necessity and despair of travellers the scum of slave gangs and the fugitives from justice from every tribe congregate for hire and if there is anything in which African travelers are for once agreed it is that for laziness ugliness stupidity and wickedness these men are not to be matched on any continent in world upon such men as these Stanley was obliged to depend though traveling in this way is more rapid than the other it is very expensive and has many difficulties not encountered by the solitary traveler the Explorer always goes on foot following as far as possible the beaten paths a late traveler says the roads over which the land trade of Equatorial Africa now passes from the coast to the interior are mere footpaths never over a foot in breadth beaten as hard as ottoman and rutted beneath the level of the forest bed by centuries of native traffic as a rule these footpaths are marvelously direct like the roads of the old Roman they move straight on through everything bridge and mountain and Valley never shying at obstacles nor anywhere turning aside to breathe no country in the world is better supplied with paths every village is connected with some other village every tribe with the next tribe and it is possible for a traveler to cross Africa without being once out of a beaten track but if the tribes using these roads are destroyed the roads are discontinued and soon become obstructed by the rapid growth of the underbrush or if the route lies through unknown regions outside the great Caravan tracks the paths are very different from those described by mr. Drummond for the way often lies through swamps and morass or over high mountain passes or as lost in a wilderness of waters the great difficulty in these expeditions is to obtain food as supplies cannot be carried they must be procured from the natives very few tribes can furnish food for a force of six hundred men the number with Stanley and when they have the food they demand exorbitant prices often the native is not only refused food to the famished travelers but oppose them with such arms as they have and then it is necessary in self-defense to fire upon them the greatest difficulty the explorer meets comes either directly or indirectly from the opposition of the slave trader formerly the slave trader was not found in Equatorial Africa but since the Explorer has opened the way the slave trader has penetrated far into the interior and is throwing obstacles in the way of the entry of Europeans into Africa when it was decided that Stanley should relieve Eamonn Pasha he was left to choose his route he met schweinfurt junker and other African travelers in Cairo they advised him to go by his former route directly from Zanzibar to the Victorian Nyanza the dangers and difficulties of this route and the warlike character of the natives he well knew the route by the Congo to Waddle I had never been traveled and he thought the difficulties could not be greater than by the old route and beside he proceeded much farther into the interior by steamer on the Congo which left a much shorter distance through the wilderness than by the Zanzibar route on arriving at Zanzibar he made an arrangement with tip Oh tip the great Arab trader and slave dealer for a large number of porters they sailed from Zanzibar to the Congo where Stanley arrived in February 1887 he then sailed up the Congo and arrived in June at the junction of the ruv me with the Congo a short distance below Stanley Falls Stanley believed that the ruv me and the Wella were the same stream and that by following up this river he would be on the direct route to Waddle I subsequent investigations have shown that he was mistaken about the first of July he left the Congo expecting to reach Amon Tasha in October 1887 no definite information has been received from him from that time to the present he left tip Oh tip in command at Stanley Falls and expected that a relief expedition would follow there were great delays in organizing this expedition from the difficulty of obtaining men and it was thought that tip Oh tip was unfaithful the men were finally procured and the expedition left ruv me in June 1888 under command of major Bartlett a day or two after they started major Bart a lot was murdered by one of his private servants the expedition returned to the Congo and was reorganized under Lieutenant Jameson he was taken ill and died just as he was ready to start and no one has been found to take his place and that relief expedition was abandoned reports say that Stanley found the route more difficult than he anticipated heavy rainfall rivers swamps and marshes obstructed the way that the season was sickly and a large part of his followers died long before he could have reached 'man Pasha the reports of his capture and of his safe return to the ROV me River are known to all these may or may not be true although we have not heard from Stanley for a year and a half yet it by no means follows that he is dead for Livingstone Stanley and other explorers have been lost for a longer time and have afterward found their way back to the coast no man has greater knowledge of the country through which his route lay or of the character of the natives or the best manner of dealing with them Eamonn Pasha was encamped quietly for nearly two years at Waterloo and Stanley in like manner may have been compelled to remain at some inland point and raise his own provisions the future of Africa it is impossible to prophesy the future of any country much less that of Africa where the physical features have left so marked an impression upon its inhabitants and where the animal life is so different from that of the other continents it is rather by differentiating Africa from other countries that we obtain any data from which to form an opinion of its future Africa as we have seen is surrounded by a fringe of European settlements what effect will these settlements have upon Africa will the European population penetrate the Interior and colonize Africa will it subjugate or expel the Africans or will they fade away like the Indians of our country if colonization by Europeans fail will the African remain the sole inhabitant of the country as barbarian or civilized Egypt is now controlled by the English but its climate is too unhealthy and its surrounding too unfavorable for Englishmen and we may safely assume that their occupation will be temporary or if permanent not as colonists they will remain as in India foreigners and rulers until the subjugated people rise in their power and expel them and return to their old life the English rule though possibly beneficial to Egypt is hated by the natives who demand Egypt for the Egyptians leaving Egypt we pass an uninhabitable coast until we come to the French colonies of Algiers it is nearly 60 years since the French took possession of Algiers there has been a large immigration from France but the climate while excellent as a winter climate for invalids and others is unfavorable for a permanent habitation especially for infants the births in one year have never equaled the deaths when Algeria was first conquered by the French it was a wilderness but is now a garden the cultivate of the grape has been most successful and extensive iron mines have been opened the French are gradually pushing their way from Algiers across the desert to Timbuktu and also from Senegambia to Timbuktu the expense of maintaining Algeria has greatly exceeded any revenue derived from it though many doubt the political wisdom of retaining it yet the French have too much pride to acknowledge that the enterprise has been in any way a failure and they will undoubtedly hold it and perhaps found an empire Senegambia and the coast of Guinea claimed by the French and English are low and moist filled with swamps and lagoons which will prevent any European colonisation south of the Congo the Portuguese claim a wide section of country running across Africa they have occupied this country over 200 years they have done little towards colonizing and only hold a few trading posts on the coast and in the interior dealing principally in slaves ivory and gold and it may well be doubted whether they have the stamina or ability to colonize this country or to produce any permanent impression upon it the south portion of Africa from the 18th parallel on the Atlantic to the 26th parallel on the Indian Ocean is generally fertile and the climate is favorable to Europeans and is capable of sustaining a large population the growth of Cape Colony has been very slow but a more rapid growth is anticipated we believe it will be permanently occupied by the English who will dis possess the Aborigines and form a great and permanent English state the coast of Zanzibar occupied by the Germans and English is rich and fertile the climate unhealthy but when the mountain ranges are crossed and the elevated plateaus and lake regions are reached the interior resembles the Congo region misawa and suicune on the red sea are unhealthy and were less unless connected by railroad with the Upper Nile there remains Equatorial Africa including the French settlements on the ogle way the region about Lake Chad the Congo and its tributaries and the lake region the more we learn of Equatorial Africa the greater its natural advantages appear to be the rivers open up the country in a favorable manner for trade and settlement its elevation from two thousand to three thousand feet will render it healthy though this elevation is only equal to from ten degrees to 14 degrees of north latitude here all the fruits of the torrid zone the fruits and most of the grains of the temperate zone cotton india-rubber and sugarcane are found the country has been unhealthy a great many Europeans have died and few have been able to remain more than two or three years without returning to Europe to recuperate these facts seem to show that the climate is not healthy for Europeans but the mortality has been much greater than it will be when the country is settled and the unhealthy stations have been exchanged for healthier localities every new country has its peculiar dangers which must be discovered when these obstacles are understood and overcome Europeans will probably occupy all this region and it will become a European colony if European colonization is successful European civilisation will come into contact with African barbarism where such a contest is carried on in a country where the climate is equally favorable to the two races it can only result in the subjugation or destruction of the inferior race if the climate is unfavorable to the white population then unless the inferior is subjected to the superior the white population will fail in colonizing the country and the negro will either slowly emerge from barbarism or return to his original kin addition the Negro has never developed any high degree of civilization and even if when brought into contact with civilization he has made considerable progress when that contact ceased he has deteriorated into barbarism but on the other hand he has never faded away and disappeared like the Indian of America and the natives of the southern archipelago Nature has spread a bountiful and never-ending harvest before the negro and given to him a climate where neither labor of body or mind neither clothing nor a house is essential to his comfort all nature invites to an idle life and it is only through compulsion and contact with a life from without that his condition can be improved in Africa a contest is going on between civilization and barbarism Christianity and Mohammedanism freedom and slavery such as the world has never seen who can fail to be interested in the results of this conflict we know that Africa is capable of the very highest civilization for it was the birthplace of all civilization to it we are indebted for the origin of all our arts and sciences and it possesses today the most wonderful works of man let us hope that Africa whose morning was so bright and whose night has been so dark will yet live to see the light of another and higher civilization end of section 3 recording by MJ Frank Portland Oregon section four of National Geographic magazine Volume one number two this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org report geography of the land by Herbert G Ogden in preparing this first report as one of the vice presidents of the Society I have been obliged to interpret the intent of our bylaws in the requirement that the vice presidents shall present at the end of the year summaries of the work done throughout the world in their several departments the amount of information that can be accumulated during 12 months if referred to in detail is simply appalling to compile it for the society would be a great paper and when completed it would be largely the duplication of the work of others already accessible in the journals of other societies and in special publications devoted to this and kindred subjects that such a detailed historical journal should be maintained by the society hardly admits of a question I had hoped to see one inaugurated during the first year of our work that would have embraced all the departments of the society but must confess with some disappointment to having been too sanguine and to have overestimated the interest that might be excited in the members of a new organization we need a journal of the kind for reference for our associates ourselves and our many friends we hope to attract by the information we may supply them but it cannot well be compiled by one man engaged money every day affairs of life and I have not made any attempt in that direction even in those matters circumscribed by the section of the society under my charge I have found little in the affairs of Europe that it seems necessary to bring to your attention indeed the past twelve months seemed quite barren of any great events in the of geographic knowledge this perhaps is to be expected at intervals of longer or shorter periods as it is governed by peoples of the most advanced to civilization who have availed themselves of all the progress of science to explore and develop the land on which they live until there is little left of nature to be learned unless a science shall determine new truths to bind by stronger links the truths already found we may look for the greatest changes here both now and in the future in the work of man pressing on in the eager strife to improve his condition above others less fortunately situated seeking advantage in the peculiarities of his environment to open new channels of trade that will divert the profits from the older routes of many schemes suggested in the furtherance of such ends there are a few that develop into realities within a generation nature may be against them when the facts are fully learned the profit may not warrant the outlay and political considerations may keep in abeyance that which otherwise may be admitted to be good thus the grand scheme to make an island sea of the desert of Sahara is impossible of execution from the fact that the desert is many hundreds of feet higher than the ocean the long two talked of project to cut the Isthmus of Corinth now accomplished was a theme of discussion for twenty centuries or more and a later project to tunnel the English Channel we have seen defeated through the fears of a few timid men perchance the grandeur one now introduced with some seriousness to bridge the channel may meet with a better fate the route for the Ship Canal to connect the Baltic in the North Seas is reported to have been determined upon in the preliminary work of construction to have been commenced and we learn that a proposition is being discussed to connect the Danube with the Baltic Sea by way of the Vistula however chimerical such a project may seem to us we cannot at this time discredit those who believe in it it shows that restless spirit that predominates the age striving for the mastery of the commercial world politically Europe has seen no geographical change but those conversant with affairs apprehend a military catastrophe at no distant date that will probably embroil the stronger nations and endanger the existence of the weaker ones having practically acquired a knowledge of their territories the people of these nations are diligently seeking to develop greater things in the study of all the earth and we have thus seen formed as a means to this end what is now known as the international geodetic Association the primary object of this association is to determine the form of the earth it is an inquiry of absorbing interest and the geodetic work in America must eventually contribute an important factor in its solution we may therefore hope that the bill now before the Congress authorizing the United States to have representation in the Association will become a law the free interchange between the continents that would thus be established would be of incalculable benefit to both in the prosecution of this important scientific labor if we turn to the adjoining continent of Asia there is still open a large field for Geographic research peopled as it has been largely by semi civilized races for many centuries we might have expected that the book of nature that might be opened would long since have been spread before us but the exclusiveness of this semi civilization has been a stumbling block until it may be said that the wise man of her nations have lived only that the masses should not learn of the political geography of this great region we have a fair conception and of the physical conditions it may be said we know them generally enlightened men have been hammering at the borders with a powerful support of progressive Nations and a few have even passed the confines of exclusiveness and brought back to us marvelous tales of ancient grandeur men have sought disguise that they might tread on this forbidden ground and many have lost their lives in efforts to gain the secrets that have been so persistently guarded but the march of civilization is not to be thwarted by the semi barbarous they may yet impede it as they have in the past but it can be only for a time the impulse is sure to come when the thirst for knowledge and power by the antagonistic races will sweep all barriers before it however strong the contemplated railway across the continent to Vladivostok may be the culminating step in overcoming these refractory peoples and opening their territories to the march of progress we have seen on our own continent the potent influence of these iron ways and it is not too much to believe that even in the strange surroundings of the Orient they will exercise a power against which exclusiveness and superstition will be forced to give way in Africa we find still different conditions a great continent believed to contain immense resources but peopled with dark-hued native races barbarous and their tendencies and frequently deficient in intellect and yet with all showing at times a savage grandeur that excites the admiration of the man while it attracts the interest of the student we may recall Carthage and Alexandria and all the wonders of ancient Egypt that lived to the confusion of our own day while those who pattern them have been lost beyond the bounds of even the most ancient history and look with trembling awe upon the degradation that has followed the boundless dissipation of the learning of Ages until we are left only such remnants that our most cultivated imaginations can scarce build a superstructure worthy to raise upon the ruins but a new era is opening the intelligence of later years is spreading over these once fruitful fields and slowly but surely modern ideas are advancing into the midst of the unknown chaos and in time will restore the great advantages that have elapsed in the ignorance of Ages the nations of Europe vie with one another to extend their possessions and in the mad race for precedence are reclaiming even the waste places of footholds by which they hope to reach the power and wealth they see may be developed in the future explorers have brought back wondrous tales that have excited the cupidity of those who profit in the barter of nature's products until vast schemes have been projected to seize the wealth believed to be within easy grasp daring spirits discover new countries and through the reports of the marvels they have seen inspire their most cautious countrymen to venture into unknown fields in the hope of gain the discontented to seek isolation and fancied independence in new regions and thus has formed the nucleus that parent countries seized upon encourage and develop into colonies that in time may revolutionize a continent and seek a place among the nations of the world this sequence of events has been gradually progressing in Africa and has been greatly accelerated by the discoveries of recent years a large section of the Interior has now been opened to trade and colonization in the formation of the Congo Free State it marks an era in the development of the continent that promises to be fruitful of rapid advance the Geographic journals have contained many pages of notes during the year showing the activity of explorers in supplying the geographical details of the more accessible regions but there is an area nearly half as large as that of the United States through which the Explorer has not yet penetrated a field of great interest to geographers but they may have years yet to wait before they may read the story in the East Indies and among the islands of the Pacific there is still work for the geographer of the most interesting character and indeed for the Explorer to those who depend upon charts of the great ocean realized too frequently the imperfect determination of the positions of many of these isolated landmarks and the dangers surrounding them this is more properly work for governments than for individuals and we may hope the day is not far distant when American officers may again roam the Seas in Geographic research and bring fresh laurels to crown the enterprise of our people the great American continent the new world as it is called presents an example of progress of which history affords us none similar a marked instance of the power of intelligent perseverance to conquer in new fields and bring under man's Dominion for his use and welfare even some of the elements themselves the last century has shown a branch of one of the old parent stocks divorced from many of their traditions and left to themselves imbued with the spirit of progress that has advanced with such giant strides that in a generation we have seen more strange things than had come upon the world before in centuries at the birth of our nation the now populous district on the Ohio and the Great Lakes was the Farwest roamed over by native tribes the Great Northwest of today was marked upon the maps as unexplored in the confines of the continent on the Pacific were known more on the faith of good reports than the knowledge of observation while that vast territory west of the Mississippi was not known at all or only through the legends transmitted from the fathers who had partly occupied it in following their holy calling and yet within a half century explorers have traversed nearly every square mile science has discovered in it treasures of knowledge that have taught the world and instead of a vast region of wandering tribes we find a civilization energetic progressive and still pressing on to reclaim even that which has been considered waste indeed so rapidly have the choice areas been occupied that it maybe but a few years when none will be left and the question of overpopulation may press upon us as today it presses upon older nations while this state of affairs may not excite present alarm it is a matter of congratulation that the Congress at its last session provided the initial step for an exhaustive examination of the great arid region to determine what portion of it may be reclaimed by irrigation and in Alaska the desirability of a better knowledge of our possessions has been emphasized by the fear of international complications on the boundary which has resulted in a small appropriation by the Congress for surveys with a view to obtaining a better knowledge of the country whereby a more reasonable delimitation of the boundary can be made it is gratifying to note that the bureaus of the government service devoted to the practical development of the economic resources of our great territory have been conducted during the year with the energy that has marked their progress heretofore but it is yet too early to place a value upon the special results of the year's work and I will leave their consideration therefore to my successor I look upon the publication's of the topographical surveys of the states of New Jersey and Massachusetts as the most noteworthy Geographic productions in this country of recent years Massachusetts has been the first state to avail herself of the full facilities offered by the general government in preparing maps of their territories on working scales although New Jersey was earlier in the field and obtained all the assistance that could be rendered by the laws in force at the time the expense of the survey in Massachusetts has been borne about equally between the state and United States exclusive of the trigonometrical work and the total cost of the state being so light we may hope eventually to see similar or even more detailed work undertaken by all the states of the union the atlas sheets thus far produced our most pleasing specimens of the cartographers art each feature or class of detail having been given a weight that permits easy reading without producing undue prominence in any in the Atlas sheets of New Jersey published by the state the same admirable effects have been produced but in a different style of treatment the questions involved be more complicated through the introduction of greater detail Massachusetts is also in the lead in prosecuting a precise determination of town boundaries by a systematic reference of all corner marks to the Stations of the triangulation that now covers the state territory the expense of this work is borne by the state with the exception of a small amount in salaries to United States officers detailed to execute portions of the work under existing laws the total cost will probably approximate the total cost of the topographical survey but it is claimed that when completed the great advantages to be derived from it will result in large savings to the people of the state our neighbors in the Dominion of Canada have been active of late years in developing their resources the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway has opened a large fertile territory for settlement and the railway itself promises to become a route for international traffic in serious rivalry with the transcontinental roads in the United States projects have also been formed for a short rail connection to Hudson's Bay with a view to shipments during the summer direct to Europe but there seems to be reasonable question of the practicability of such a route during the past two seasons Canada has also been engaged upon extensive explorations in the Northwest Territory along the boundary line of Alaska the parties I learn are only just returning from their last summer's labors and it will probably be sometime in the winter before we can supplement the chapter of a year ago from this interesting region but little advance has been made during late year and solving the mysteries of the Arctic in the past summer a party has crossed the southern part of Greenland but advices have not yet come to hand that would indicate the value of the exploration a second party was organized to follow the east coast of Greenland to the northward that we may hear from at a later date although reports already received if true would indicate the effort had been baffled by adverse weather a few months ago an expedition was seriously contemplated by Europeans to the frozen seas of the Antarctic as it was to have been backed by energetic businessmen it doubtless would have been amply fitted for its purpose and we may therefore sincerely regret the rumor that the project has been postponed if not abandoned in the Central American states a congress has been assembled to consider the unification of the states under one general government a union the possibility of which has long been discussed but from the jealousy of rival factions as heretofore seemed impossible of accomplishment but there is some hope that the labors of the Congress now in session will prove more successful our greatest geographic interest in these states is centered in the projects for interoceanic canals the scheme to count the isthmus of panama undertaken by the eminent french designer to the Sep has been beset with many difficulties not the least of them arising from the improvident management of those having a media charge of the works it is impossible to foresee the eventual outcome of this great work as all reports expressing decided views on the subject are suspected of a coloring from the personal opinions of the authors of them the original plans have been modified to include locks for crossing a summit level this has stated to be only a temporary expedient to secure the opening of the canal at an early date and that eventually the work will be completed on the original plan of a through cut it seems evident from the latest reports that work will be continued as long as money is forthcoming to meet the expenses and as the modified scheme to overcome the high land by lakhs instead of a through cut greatly simplifies the engineering problems there is a probability of the canal becoming an accomplished fact a second route by way of the San Juan River in Lake Nicaragua that has also been under discussion for many years has recently been energetically advocated by American engineers with the result of the actual location of a line and careful cross sectioning during the past year a company has been formed and obtained a charter from the state of Vermont and as it is represented to be backed by abundant capital we may air many years have the gratification of seeing an inter oceanic canal open under American auspices many speculations have been indulged in as to the probable effect of a canal through this isthmus on the carrying trade of the world the impetus it might give to the opening up of new commercial relations and even the effect it may have in advancing our civilization to distant nations such speculations are hardly pertinent to this report but we may well reflect upon the changes that have been rocked since the opening of the canal through the Isthmus of Suez and conceive if we can the leveling up that may accrue to the political divisions of the Western world from the same influences that will cut the channel through her Isthmus South America has been free from serious agitation until a recent date although some of the states have not failed to show the usual internal dissensions in political affairs late advices intimated impossible difficulty between Venezuela and England relative to the control of a large territory embracing the mouth of the Orinoco River which should it result in the permanent occupation of the disputed territory by the European power may wield a marked influence in the development of this of the continent a project that has long been agitated to construct a continental railway that would give direct rail communication with the northern continent has recently been resumed and we can but hope with an earnestness that will lead to its accomplishment large areas of this interesting country have not yet been revealed to us nor can we expect to acquire a full knowledge of its geographic wonders until the means of internal communication have become more assured the recent inauguration of a geographical society in Peru is also an important step towards our acquirement of more detailed information and doubtless will redound to the credit of its founders in the interest it will stimulate in kindred societies over the world geology is a science so intimately connected with geography that I should feel delinquent did I not include a reference to it in this report however inadequate my remarks may be to do justice to the subject to geographers the origin of the varied distribution of the land and water the cause and growth of mountains Plains oceans lakes and rivers the great changes that have taken place on the face of the earth in times past is of absorbing interest rivaled only by their desire for perfect knowledge of that which may be seen today had the prehistoric man been gifted with the intelligence of his descendants in the present epoch he would have left for us a record that would have been valuable indeed and cleared our way of much that now is speculation and but too often food for words true it is however that if the mysteries of the past were revealed to us we should lose the pleasure their study affords and perhaps there would follow a degeneration of species through the loss of stimulus they now provide how long ago man lived and might have made a record is still a disputed question but one that involves to the record of the earth herself the association of human remains in the glacial drift brings that epoch in the Earth's history nearer to us by several hundred thousand years and instead of speculating upon it as having occurred nearly a million years ago geologists must consider whether it was not probably coincident with the most recent eccentricity of the earth which astronomers teach us happened about ten or fifteen thousand years ago geology must also fit her facts to mathematical science if we give credence to latest computations a mathematician has now advanced the theory that at the average depth of about five miles below the surface there is a belt of no strain the result of opposing forces above and below it a belt that from the nature of the case is impenetrable through which what is above cannot pass to what is below and what is below cannot pass to what is above a condition that would confine the origin of all seismic coal and volcanic disturbances and their consequent geographical changes to a mere shell of the crust the result of the computation is certainly interesting and we may hope will not be lost sight of in future discussions however it may share in gaining support or opposition it is based upon an assumption of the temperature when the earth began to cool to assume a lower temperature draws the belt nearer to the surface and a higher temperature is believed to be inconsistent with our knowledge of what heat may affect this belt is stated to be gradually sinking however and the computation therefore involves a term representing time and I venture to suggest as estimates of geologic time are generally indefinite and seemed to be inexhaustible an abundance can probably be supplied to sink the belt deep enough for all theoretical purposes more interesting to geographers other conceptions of ancient forms suggested by the views recently advanced by Professor Schaller in a late summer of science June 15 on the Crenn etic hypothesis and mountain building to let the imagination have full play we may conceive that where we now have extensive mountain ranges there were formerly great plains of sedimentation and where we see the process of sedimentation active today there may be great mountains in the future and also in this inquiry into the origin of the divisions between the layers of stratified rocks we may be carried away with the immensity of the changes suggested the recurring destruction of submarine life to contribute to the building of the rocks of the continents the apparently endless cycles of emergence of the land and subsidence of the waters to leave the geographical conditions we see today furnish additional evidence of the wonders of the past and force upon us anew the realization of how little in the great evolution as the epoch in which we live American geologists have advanced the knowledge of the world only recently the American methods of glacial study have enabled Salsbury to interpret the terminal moraines of northern germany and that the science is active among our countrymen is evidenced by the formation of a geological society and the establishment of a magazine devoted exclusively to its interests America too contributed largely to the geologic Congress recently held in London and it is pleasing to note that the next session of the Congress is promised for Philadelphia at the suggestion of one of our associates I call attention of the students of the science and indeed all interested in it and also of geographers to a recent publication entitled the building of the british isles by Jukes Browne Scribner and Walford New York it has been characterized as the best treatise on the evolution of the land areas which has yet appeared from the geologists point of view it is the book of the year another associate recommends two most attentive consideration the recent articles on three formations of the middle at land dick slope by W J McGee as one of the most original essays of recent years it also gives me great pleasure to bring to your attention an article on the physical geography of New England by William M Davis and a book on the butterflies of New England by SH Scudder it is hardly necessary to recommend this publication to your perusal as I doubt not being from the Pens of our associates it will excite a lively interest in those devoted to these Sciences in conclusion permit me to refer briefly to the National Geographic magazine published by the Society the first number of which has recently been placed before you it is the desire of the committee having charge of this publication to make it a journal of influence and usefulness there is abundant material in a society to furnish the substance if those who have it and command will make legitimate use of their opportunities it would be unfortunate if the text should be confined to the papers presented to the society it was not the intention of the board of managers that such should be the case when the publication was determined upon on the contrary it was the expectation that there would be original communications from many sources essays reviews and notes on the various subjects of the five departments in which the society is organized not necessarily from the members but also from their friends interested in these divisions of the general subject while this expectation has been realized in a measure there is room for improvement and it is hoped the future will show an increasing interest and more generous contributions December 1888 end of section 4

Cabin Max Marseille Wheeled Holdall Suitcase - Cabin Luggage 55x35x20 cm 38L- Lightweight - Review
like this bag for travel hand luggage only worked perfectly easy to use three height handle good for tall or short users easy to wheel takes enough for a weekend case expanding top is very useful can't comment on suitability for cabin luggages do not use for that purpose love this case compared to other items on the market this is great value it's got loads of storage and feels very well built best handle I've ever had on the case if I was being critical I could say that four wheels would give it more maneuverability but honestly doesn't need it and of course cases with four wheels have less space so I definitely feel this is better looks amazing too great quality for the price I would recommend as a very decent alternative to the mainstream Brands yes it does too what you won't be leaving it standing on its own for long it is a nice and sturdy travel bag click the link in description below for more details

2022-02-24 Members’ Statements
uh it is now time for members statements i recognize the member for windsor west speaker four years ago this conservative government promised to make life more affordable promise made promise broken many people in windsor can't buy a home a single family home has increased almost 32 percent in just one year because of blind bidding my constituents have to bid hundreds of thousands of dollars over asking and young families aren't able to buy a home of their own this government cut rent control allowing rental costs to soar the average one-bedroom unit has jumped from 700 to 1200 a month a 71 percent increase the cost of child care groceries and fuel have all gone up under this government's watch hydro which they promised to cut by twelve percent has increased by five percent and they refused to sign the ten dollar a day child care deal ontario works and odsp recipients been forced to live in legislative poverty struggling to make ends meet relying on food banks because they can't afford food and rent workers from our casino bengals bingo halls auto assembly and parts plans haven't had steady employment in almost two years they're struggling while this government supports their corporate buddies at amazon and walmart who are making billions of dollars in profits nurses and other workers have their wages suppressed because of bill 124. inflation is six percent yet the conservatives believe healthcare workers are only worth a one percent pay increase that's equivalent to a five percent paid cut in 99 days people have chosen an ndp government that will take profit out of long-term care repeal bill 124 ensure everyone has a home they can afford reduced child care and grocery costs increase social assistance rates support workers and small businesses [Applause] member statements i recognize the member from aurora oak ridges river contest good morning everyone thank you very much speaker great to be here in the legislature with all of you speaker i know a lot of great initiatives and events have taken place since i last rose here in this chamber but today i'd like to highlight one important celebration that's taking place through the month of february for this entire month we are celebrating and learning about the contributions that black ontarians have and continue to have in our province and in our local communities this year i was honored to participate in the first flag raising ceremony held in the town of aurora and attended an online virtual event to kick off this month's festivities speaker i'd like to give special thanks to my good friend fiona durant the president of the aurora black community association milton hart and michael corniff from the aurora black caucus and mark lewis from the anti-black racism and anti-racism task force for their incredible work leadership that they continue to provide in our community which was on full display at these events speaker at the virtual blackster history month event that was hosted by the aurora black community association it was an absolute pleasure to hear from the events main guest speaker the honorable gene augustine she explained to us her experiences as a member of parliament in ottawa and the journey in creating and passing the legislation which officially recognized february as black history month along with all the participants we were captivated and inspired by her relentless pursuit in achieving this goal as i mentioned at the event i believe learning and celebrating black history in our province and in our country should go beyond just the month of february now this is this important it's important to recognize that we have made significant progress over the years madam speaker but there's still so much we can do and there's always room for improvement thank you very much member statements i recognize the member from thunder bay atticoken thank you speaker there is a crisis in health care in the north one person in eight across the north does not have access to primary health care in northwestern ontario we have a shortage of hundreds of positions facts like these represent the failure of this government to make sure northern ontario gets the healthcare it deserves equitable access to health care is a right under the canada health act we need to encourage more physicians health care professionals to work in northern communities we must retain those we have and work to help with their burnout the provincial government needs to take action to build a better and more resilient health care system for the north the northern ontario school of medicine awesome has a done an excellent job training the next generation of physicians who work in communities across the north but this government needs to immediately expand the northern ontario school of medicine's capacity to meet the needs of northern ontario there are other solutions that need to happen immediately it must work with stakeholders and communities to address shortages of physicians nurse practitioners and the health care health care professionals that form our teams the people of northern hondura ontario deserve to have equitable access to health care thank you member statements the member for brampton west thank you mr speaker i would like to begin by sending my thoughts and prayers to the families impacted by catastrophic flooding in brampton the churchill area has dealt with an incredible amount of flooding and many residents were forced to evacuate their homes it has been estimated that around 100 homes have been impacted by the floods and the water in some areas has risen up to six feet deep i want to thank all first responders for all of the hard and necessary work they are doing to help residents get to safety this is devastating news and i pray for the safety and well-being of many bramptonians impacted by the flooding if you have friends or family living in the area i recommend checking up on loved ones once again mr speaker this natural disaster has caused pain and suffering for many bramptonians in the churchville area that it is truly heartwarming to see the community come together to help one another thank you mr speaker the next member statement the member for key wetlands migrate speaker uh this morning i'm going to share the words and the notes of cassandra fiddler she was the mom of grant mikus nine remy mikus seven and wilford fiddler four who passed away in a tragic house fire on the night of january 13 2020 in sunny lake first nation this is her note all my kids were asleep and i went to check up on them and had turned on the heaters in their rooms i went to put two small logs in the in the wood stove and i went back to my room and not even after 15 minutes i smoked smoke and saw flashes i went to look and seen the fire on the ceiling right away i got i got my boys up to take their blankets and go to the door i ran remy and welford i ran to remy and wilford's room got them up and went towards the door the boys couldn't open it because it was already too smoky i thought oh i had all my kids by the door so it opened i ran back to the room to get my baby i went outside and saw only malaki and braden i was going to go to the back go back inside but when i turned the fire was already you know getting bigger two people came to help but the fire was too too big i told them my babies were inside and the girl who came to help told me they're knocking on the windows they broke it but they couldn't see them inside and then we were taken to the nursing station because i had inhaled a lot of smoke and i was burned i cried so much for my babies it made breathing hard and i was on oxygen until i was stable that's the end of her note cassandra let me wait for your words we will always remember grant remy and wilford me good thank you very much member statements member for chatham kent leamington speaker we're all aware of what happened in ottawa over the past three weeks blocking all lanes and bridges inhibiting the flow of goods between canada and the u.s and preventing people from getting to work was problematic but why were the truckers there in the first place fighting for reinstatement of vaccine exemptions initially yes but it became much more than that defending individual rights and freedoms to eliminate this peaceful protest all was needed was for the prime minister in the premier to meet with the organizers sadly that didn't happen civilian journalism came to light paul harvey would say and now the rest of the story for the people of ottawa disadvantaged perhaps but crime was down and people weren't getting sick and being admitted to hospital actions of the many cannot be held responsible for the actions of the very few many question of those causing trouble were in fact associated with convoy truckers took care of things they had rules of conduct cleaned up garbage stood guard around monuments supported local businesses were respectable and fed to hungary truckers and non-truckers for my riding provided updates ottawa citizens would come up to the truckers offer food and hugs negative reports were from the very few in summary i was offended by the characterization of truckers by trudeau and others the use of such inflammatory language was unjustified in my opinion protests in ottawa happen all the time calling this peaceful protest as siege illegal or calling truckers and supporters terrorists and occupiers is so wrong now the emergency act has been revoked why now did the pm change his mind paul harvey would say it's pure politics member statements the member for peterborough thank you mr speaker usually when i rise in the house for a 90-second statement i'm talking about something that's going on in my riding or we're talking about an individual who's made an outstanding contribution to the community i want to take this opportunity to talk about an individual that is quite possibly the best listener any of us will ever meet she's won a number of awards over the last three years for her ability to support people who face trauma every day she puts her specialized training to work to help others but speaker she also has a dark side and she knows exactly where the treats are held in the desks of those that she can convince to give one of those treats to her when she tilts her head and flashes those puppy dog eyes i'm talking about the peterborough police service victim support dog pixie pixie is a black lab who has had who has the most calm demeanor of any dog you'll ever meet she's never in a hurry to get anywhere and frequently requires a good scratching behind her ears pixie has proven to be a great support for many individuals in their time of trauma and she's also been a fantastic addition to help an officer when they've had a particularly difficult day on the job sometimes all you need is that unconditional non-judgmental friend who wants nothing more than to sit with you and just listen and that's exactly what pixie does pixie is a credit to the service of peterborough and i want to thank alice citroem for all of her work in victim services with pixie thank you speaker member statements the member for st catharines thank you speaker early on i learned as a city councilor that you must be prepared to work with everyone even today in these chambers to get things done often i've worked with all political stripes to help the residents in saint conference however it is clear sometimes the vision of the ontario that this current government has is too far from my own the disability programs in ontario is an example of that one of the first acts by this premier was to ensure disability programs received no more increases since 2018 this program has not seen an increase even though ontario's annual inflation is over five percent this is shameful last year the average single bedroom apartment in st catharines almost hit one thousand five hundred dollars a month our ontario disability support program shelter benefits covers about one-third of that i've requested many times at the very least that this province reviewed this program nothing advocates have requested livable incomes for individuals on disabilities nothing the auditor general has called it one of the worst job programs ever created no change premier ford you inherited the odsp program from the past liberal government under this government's watch it has gotten worse we need to see increases in supports for disability programs in the upcoming budget and if we don't we need a new premier that will [Applause] member statements the member for bruce gray owen sound thank you very much mr speaker i rise today to recognize an act of incredible generosity in my great riding of bruce grey owen sound recently saubel area medical clinic incorporated donated a total of one million dollars to the foundations of graybruce health services to purchase equipment for hospitals in wyerton owen sound and southampton close to 20 years ago community-minded citizens in sauble beach began working on the concept of establishing a new medical clinic in the town after a lot of hard work and a lot of fundraising the clinic on main street became a reality and the salvo family health team was born speaker today there are 2 800 patients rostered using this clinic there are two doctors two nurse practitioners three nurses and a social worker who are all working at the facility the clinic is an amazing success story for the community and it would not have happened without the hard work of many people including the late marge lipka a dynamo mr speaker and let me tell you never underestimate the power of butter tarts and pierogies because she got a lot of stuff done with that carl noble dr john vandorp gina vandorp tracy jones joan williamson dr shazzy ambreen nurse practitioners kevin linen and kathy babin niven kathy getz perry from von sheila to winter doctors leeson mcnair and barker cecil groves and to everybody mr speaker that continues to make the clinic such an important community facility currently dr sue gundrum and dr larry schmidt and nurse practitioners emma lustig and haley shapiro continue to provide service speaker the owners of the building that are home to the clinic actually sold it to be able to give back their plans to spend four hundred thousand dollars for where in hospital to purchase an x-ray machine 350 000 for the owen sound hospital to purchase a new c-arm for the operating room and an ultrasound machine and 250 000 will go to the southampton hospital foundation ct scanner campaign speaker this is fabulous community work that's providing community benefits forever and a day thank you so much those individuals who have been involved [Applause] thank you very much that concludes our member statements for this morning very pleased to inform the house that paige christian tenuija from the riding of etobicoke center is one of today's page captains and we have with us today at queen's park his mother shinta tawija and his stepfather peter chacarico we're also joined today by the parents of our other page captain lucia way from the riding of richmond hill her mother zheng yu and her father shoneng wei welcome to the legislative assembly of ontario we're delighted to have you here informed that the government house leader has a point of order uh thank you speaker mr speaker if you seek it you will find unanimous consent to allow members to make statements in response to the russian federation's invasion of the sovereign country of ukraine with five minutes allotted to her majesty's government five minutes allotted to her majesty's loyal opposition and five minutes allotted to the independent members as a group government house leader is seeking the unanimous consent of the house to allow members to make statements in response to the russian federation's invasion of the sovereign country of ukraine with five minutes allotted to her majesty's government five minutes allotted to her majesty's loyal opposition and five minutes allotted to the independent members as a group agreed i recognize the premier well thank you mr speaker there are certain dates that will be forever printed in our history books dates that will be forever etched into our memories june 28 1914 the beginning of world war one september 1st 1939 the beginning of world war ii we must pray that february 24th 2022 isn't next last night we witnessed a violent attack on a sovereign nation by a despot a thug we witness vladimir putin's war of aggression begin in the ukraine the bonds between ukraine and canada run deep for without the ukrainian people their resilience their bravery their strength their willingness to fight for their family and friends the can that we know and love today would not be the same the food that feeds our families it's farmed by grandchildren and great-grandchildren of ukrainian immigrants who left aggression and poverty to settle the canadian west our greatest athletes like gretzky our greatest entertainers like trebek our greatest voices like bachmann and our greatest scholars and scientists like dr bondar ukrainian canadians we've cheered them on we've laughed and sang along together we've touched the heavens they left a permanent mark on canadian history they left a permanent mark on our society for again without ukraine the canada we know and love today would not be the same and because of that we will forever be tied together as two nations an ocean apart but forever one canada shall never waver in standing against tyranny candace shall never waver in the support of ukraine as putin's aggression lights up the skies of kiev they will see the strength of the ukrainian people emerge from the darkness we must ensure that your ukrainian flag flies high above the skyline the blue and yellow must be the last colors the invaders see slava ukraine glory to ukraine and glory to our heroes thank you and god bless the people of the ukraine [Applause] the leader of her majesty's loyal opposition thank you speaker speaker this morning we stand in solidarity with the people of ukraine all ukrainians who call ontario and canada home and ukrainians worldwide folks who fear for their loved ones overseas and are deeply worried about the lives safety and sovereignty of the ukrainian people during this dark time i joined global leaders and peace-loving people around the world in condemning this unprovoked attack by the russian federation and the violent invasion putin is using to drag people into the horrors of war we all call for diplomacy and immediate de-escalation of military actions speakers ontarians we know the vital role ukrainian canadians have played in building this province in our country and premier just spoke of exactly that cities and towns across ontario are steeped in ukrainian history and culture and as canadians we are so fortunate to share a strong bond with ukraine the official opposition ndp has always been proud to stand side by side with the ukrainian community from working closely together to make september 7th ukrainian heritage day to recognizing hollywood memorial day every november to celebrating ukraine's 30th independence day this past fall we will always stand in solidarity with the people of ukraine's efforts to strengthen their democracy and institutions and we will always reject the path of aggression the path of stoking the flames of division and imperialism for political gain and the path of threatening world peace by attacking the sovereignty of others and their democratic right to choose their government mr speaker i strongly reaffirm our commitment to the serenity and territorial integrity of ukraine within its internationally recognized borders and to its economic and financial stability and to the well-being of its people and in closing speaker i asked the prime minister federal government to ensure that we welcome ukrainian refugees commit to family reunification and provide humanitarian aid to the people of ukraine to our best and highest ability which means speaker we stand with the people of ukraine [Applause] thank you member for ottawa very much mr speaker and we stand with the people of ukraine our ukrainian friends and neighbors in condemning the illegal actions being taken by vladimir putin in the ukraine this morning there is evil in the world and it's kind of a shock to all of us this morning and last night think about the children in the ukraine who are going to be children of war think about how do we explain it to our children who are afraid how do we give them confidence what is it we need to do what we need to do is stand united not just on this but on everything we have to put aside our differences that's what our children need that's what the children of ukraine need if we're going to stand up for them we have to stand up for them together and we've seen recently in ontario ottawa something similar to what we're seeing in ukraine not nearly as bad not barely as dangerous but we've seen how hate and anger and division can terrorise society apart and make no mistake what's happening right now in the ukraine is hate and anger and division ukrainian canadians are such a big part of our history arts science sports they're our neighbors they're friends many of us have ukrainian canadian communities insider writings we go to the festivals it's about family and community it's really hard sometimes to figure out what you can do right how do you change the things that you can't change how do we stop the thing that's happening right now what do we do the only thing for us to do is to be united to bring ourselves together to put aside our differences because that's what the people of ukraine need that's what our children need right now it's a scary time in the world and i'm sure for them i know for them that it's scary it's scary for all of us thank you speaker [Applause] member for guelph thank you speaker i rise today to unequivocally condemn the military invasion and bombing of ukraine by russia war is never the answer violence is never the answer launching bombs and innocent civilians is never the answer we as ontarians stand in solidarity with the people of ukraine and ukrainian canadians to denounce this senseless act of aggression by russia and we as ontarians have a duty a duty mr speaker to stand in solidarity with ukraine and our fellow ukrainian canadians speaker last night last night i watched in horror when i saw our neighbors to the south having a debate about which side they were on and so i want to say to the premier thank you i want to say to the leader of the official opposition thank you i want to say thank you to the house leader of the liberals that in this house in this province we stand united for democracy democracy must always trump

Continuous Key-Signing Party introduction
okay so it seems we're ready okay this is usually a short session although I know that mostly for people who are newcomers a there's a lot of questions to be to be answered and most of the questions I will tell you in advance the answer it completely depends on you and on your personal policies but the thing is we want to like kick start the protocol that we have laid out in order to increase the trust inside our network and to get more people connected to the day to the network inside a large keyring so well there we can later at some other moment discuss the importance of having a trust about a keyring for us a a what we're going to do here is basically to to start a to do the necessary steps so we we know there is a trust level document from which we can start exchanging fingerprints a note that many people do not have their keys in this document it's completely valid to exchange fingerprints with everybody not in this document if I have for example a little card that has my fingerprint on it it's at least as good as having it in the document if I give you a card you know who I am you trust my identity and I'm giving you my fingerprint well it's as good as if I told you that that the pages were going to check our valid so what we're going to do well first of all I have to apologize because I had to come up with a set of scripts that I didn't know that were already written and available so I parsed the best way I could all of the fingerprints you all sent me and I know I did several mistakes so some some people's keys didn't make it to the signing parties time and well and the the format is not exactly in the in the way that some tools like it but the the thing is I sent out the announcements and the files are there and they I cannot change and so we we have to work with what we have secondly I made a mistake with the date so we were supposed to check the shah's ohms and print the files before traveling to Taiwan but turns out that it was not possible because the deadlines I had set was for yesterday or today not two days ago so I split the key signing party in tufa in two files we have yep we have a first listing and the second listing so when when you exchange keys with somebody say I will open here the first one you will say I am on listing one and my number is 23 listing one number 23 I have checked it yes I have checked it have you checked yours yes you have checkers is everything correct yes everything is correct then we make a little cross here and a little cross here and yay but we have to ensure that we all have the same documents so among you all who has computed the finger - ah the sha-256 sum for the first listing okay a good number for the second listing great more than enough - to get started those who have not well you can trust the rest of us or you can of course check it yourselves so what we're now going to do is it would be very boring if I did the reading a I will unplug my computer a bit or well just disconnect the output and I will ask those of you that have it to read it like one octet at once right so you and me can check it matches and we will check among the audience I'm disconnecting so well it's verified among many and not just by looking at our screen so here in this list that that I put for you the the Chateau 56 is available here but please don't sit now no he did run one so people please I need one hand up for this for the first four digit please do start somebody new me see e 48 some be new mmm-hmm hey d6a aha is somebody from here I haven't heard mm-hmm you can repeat for a six one three seven seven eight please continue okay we have group Olli confirmed our first file and and if you don't believe it well you can check here and they I have signed it and I have checked it in blah okay and now please let's do the second one same procedure I will start for the second one II see f5 7b II see zero e0f five b37 okay great this is somebody here scratching their heads asking what we just did or we can yeah great okay what is this a I want each of you to be sure that the file I am giving you contains the right fingerprints and it's not it doesn't contain garbage yeah because I want you to sign balance a key and the Chang was key and each of the keys that are there if we don't group Ali check this I may be injecting things into here I may be trying to assume somebody else's identity and getting connected into the web of trust so you can get this a file and get this fingerprint and compare it to the one I have here that we just checked and it should be exactly the same I'm not going to do it again because I trust it I put it there right but the thing is a it's very important for for our project we collectively well each of us as a developer we have root access to millions of computers if we upload the wrong software a it's liable to do cause a lot of damage so this is the the way we can assign trust to the actions each of us do right so it's important to to well to trust enough the identity of each person we are cross signing with again if you didn't bring if you didn't put your if these files don't include your fingerprint please use something like this or you slips of paper yes please Tomas way to the microphones not yet open right very very very important yep everybody should check double check their own fingerprint with the file this means that how do I check this well the good thing is that I have a full auditorium to help me here is my own and I have here my piece of paper so if I read this and you check that it's the same a B for 1 C 1 C 6 8 AF D 6 6 8 C a 0 4 5 EB F 8 7 6 7 3 a 0 3 E 4 C 1 DB 9 2 1 F that is verifying my own fingerprint each of you that has their fingerprints here should check that where that I didn't inject something in this or somebody injected a mail to me too Corral to make your fingerprint corrupt right a so well of course yours your sink here some garbage I see like here please remember this file is for text encoding Unicode specially important here because for example here we have a name a Korean name that would not display otherwise so please any any questions anything we should add to this yeah so I think we can declare the key signings this is the key signing sessions to be open each and every one of us is available for cross signing keys so please be gentle and and they have fun [Applause] a before I forget one more thing it's very useful to have these sheets printed that's the reason why we created all song and I think the volume went up we also had these we had this short list that instead of printing I think it's like 18 pages you can just print up okay we'll come welcome okay the short list here a print seal in four pages which you can print front them back the full list only the most important parts so this is enough for checking if you did all the checks on the other end on the regular files a where to print we I try to print copies for people to grab but it's quite expensive so I I didn't a in the you can go to the convenience stores inside the campus it's I think it was three Taiwanese dollar per sheet so it would be four times that I was told it can be cheaper if we go out here to the Main Street there several printing centers so I think these four sheets can be useful for you okay that's it now you can leave

about the city council meeting I just personally gave nakota some things to talk about for PD that are coming up is there going to be an official announcement about up north that that's what I'm under

thing you know what I mean I just letting you know I don't know if do you know Barracks around uh I don't Slackers somehow word has got around that you could be a prior officer in your past as long as

we'll find a way no I'm I'm playing I hope there's something official today okay so here's my question why why is it that I like PR so much and I like all these other folks so much but a lot of these other folks that I like so much don't seem to like PR so much and vice versa we remember the things that people did and said and but I got to give people the benefit of the doubt to start with right yeah I mean why why wouldn't you right right well probably because they killed people and blew them up right I mean it's been five years everything's went fine I didn't [ __ ] tell him a goddamn thing

like wait a second why isn't Cod voting no and then then everybody's going to second guess them zes hey cornwood howon is so the meeting's in 10 minutes right yeah probably you know I would say the meeting is whenever it's three-ish hey are you in your are you in your office I'm actually at the trailer I'm waiting for Max to wake up talk to you later wait no hold on I need something from you Shan uh what you need give me a second can you call Ruby and baric baric might not be around I'll call Ruby and invite her yeah call Ruby I called her and I said hey do you want to come to this thing and she asked if I know anything I said I don't know for sure I just I'm under the impression that something's going to happen today because everybody else is talking about it you asked me some questions about like what I want to see out of the Sheriff's Office last night so did you not tell did you actually not tell her did you keep your mouth shut yeah I mean I didn't tell her but BL her mouth no I didn't tell her that you said it was pushing for sure or whatever you know which is which was hard as [ __ ] for me because I I like you know I think Ruby Ruby's on our side I mean she she we like Ruby a hell of a lot around here I'll call her right now yeah yeah I think that'd be great okay all right cool bye bye so so do we know for sure that this is going to get pushed today or I don't know like like I said this is news to me okay this is all news to me right all I know is her asking some questions about what they want us to see we'll find out I guess um we'll know when crane talks I do believe that um with the right language we're definitely ready for um bcso Sheriff's Office my only concern is in the line and language that it does have is former officers I would prefer if it was only active all right well is everyone going in uh well yeah I guess we were invited all right chill let's go then dude it is the best content if they let anybody run what if they what if they let corw I think it has to be former officer former a terrible idea it should be just only active would it be for former with approval maybe cuz what if what if Ruth runs I mean it's terrible idea terrible idea just make it active you're not part of you know cor self-sabotaging on Election the thing is is dude the the the content is so good someone say corner and SW do you lose I don't think Corner would lose dude the thing is is I like the content like if PR runs against Corner would would be so funny I don't think PR would well here the thing PR wouldn't want to win I think PR would just want to look like a maniac content may ruin future content uh yeah but like it also may make the future content better wait phone did my phone go off thank you um I just got a text from shobon saying JK I don't need to be here now I think she's talking about John Kennedy she just sent me one too I got a call from shobon first saying come to the meeting now I get a t never mind JK false alarm as you were I said I think we're all in the meeting room oops my bad I got ahead of myself so I don't have to be here do you need to be here should we all leave should we leave she I guess I mean I'm yeah I don't know I'm leaving wait hold on hold on wait is that what JK I I thought she meant John Kennedy would that be JFK I thought she just screwed up do I not be her I have no idea cor honestly hey so just kiding I don't need to be here yeah don't need to be there okay yeah yep yep yep so my bad on that I got a little ahead of myself still probably going to do it no spoilers no spoilers but don't need to don't need to have you there thank you for being ready though should we did need that I really do appreciate it okay so no spoilers okay just wait till after the meeting and

our hearts and minds to heaven to draw upon the wisdom of the saints and the work of the holy spirit in the life of people who've given themselves to god and today we're talking about one of my favorite saints saint elizabeth of the trinity right i think you said that too low or i don't know maybe i'm hard to say saint elizabeth of the trinity you did that awesome yes she is a beautiful saint right and then we are uh interviewing a saint in the making claire dwyer who is the uh is the marketing manager for avila foundation as well as the editor and contributor to spiritualdirection.com she has a degree in theology from franciscan university steubenville and like inches away from finishing her graduate program in spiritual theology with the avila institute she blogs at even the sparrow and one of the best i know she hates to hear me say this but one of the best writers of our time i think i mean certainly top 20 top 10 really powerful her writing ability is very beautiful and the book we're talking about today she wrote called this present paradise the spiritual journey with saint elizabeth of the trinity is something that you need to pick up and read it's really something special and in particular i think small it's awesome for small groups you can really spend quite a bit of time with st elizabeth it's not a gigantic book but the way she's written it they're short modules that you can explore there's a total of 38 of them uh explore the wisdom of saint elizabeth with study questions we'll study it with you made it very very easy for you to run a study group right it's beautiful i called it story through prayer when i did the little blurb for it because it truly is it's like praying and listening to story at the same time i just love the way she writes yeah and i i've just enjoyed getting to know saint elizabeth of trinity along with claire through her story so i guess you like the book too then yeah i kind of like claire too okay hey claire welcome claire good to see you hi it's good to be back thank you and you had a big day this this a few days ago what tell us tell us what happened our oldest son was married on saturday so three days ago now and it was beautiful and a wonderful grace-filled occasion so i'm entering a new phase in life i feel like now my children are you know moving on and out and on to better things that's awesome wait to use to get your first grandchild that's going to be amazing that's going to be amazing all right so we're on episode four of four and and uh if you're blessed as you listen today you can find all the previous episodes out at uh spiritualdirection.com you can pick up this book this present paradise and jordan will put it up on the screen there at ewtn's religious catalog always a place for faithful books and before we jump in i also want to recommend another book that we've published in concert with sophia institute press one of the professors at the avil institute translated a beautiful book called the life of praise to god which is uh on a biography of elizabeth of the trinity these two books are awesome companions to one another and if you really want to dig into this this amazing saint so today we're talking about her life and legacy and we want to jump in and i know stephanie's already rearing and ready to go with questions about saint elizabeth so what do you got well what i found interesting is is like therese she's she had a young death you know she died at such a young age so can you tell us a little bit about the circumstances about that or final year and i also hear that she can be a cause of hope um because she had a particular temptation that was very severe like to rest which i know that certainly during this dark time we've heard a lot of it in the news in fact they're they're trying to force schools back open in san francisco because of this particular stressor that's happening and um and it's it's playing out horribly among the young people so tell us what that is and tell us how that relates to saint elizabeth and her young death yes so she did have a young death she um in the year 1906 on new year's day the carmelites and dijon did what was the tradition at the time was to choose a patron saint just to draw one randomly for the year and on new year's day 1906 elizabeth drew st joseph so she spent the year with the saint which the church has declared is we are all spending the year with saint joseph this year um but that year he was her saint in particular and they over the nuns overheard her say oh that's appropriate because this is going to be the year that i meet christ wow so one of you know we invoke saint joseph for just about everything i was doing an interview with father mike schmitz a couple years ago talking about the saints and he said st joseph is basically patron saint of everything i mean you just can't go wrong with him um but one of the things in particular that the church recognizes is that he is patron of a happy death so that's that would become true for elizabeth in the sense that she would die in the year 1906. um at the time she was already starting not to feel well but because she was so good at not drawing attention to herself nobody else had noticed it she had something called addison's disease which is now treatable it's a disease of the adrenal glands basically you lose the ability to process food and so she would over the next eight months ten eight months starve to death slowly and painfully and so she had a lot to offer up which she did um so it was excruciatingly painful and like saint therese who died of tuberculosis so basically you know suffocating to death starving to death these young women um were in agony for months and they knew suffering and even though they were holy they were not outside the temptation to suicide which is what stephanie was alluding to we know that saint therese made a comment that you really shouldn't leave scissors out near the deathbed of somebody dying of tuberculosis because she experienced temptation to suicide um and saint elizabeth would make a comment to the priorus one night when she was leaving her room she kind of motioned to the open second story window and said you sure you want to leave that window open like she said i understand at this point i understand suicide and so of course they didn't give into it but it is good to remember that the saints were not outside of these temptations especially at the time of our death um you know father mcmanus at the summit in 2019 was reminding us all that satan will take every opportunity one you know his last ditch efforts at the time of our death which is why we pray in the hail mary every single time we say the hail mary we ask for her intercession at that hour because that will be a critical hour for us and i think it's ironic that we have this age where we're at the the virtue is hope that we are called to have and the two extremes on either side are presumption and despair and in this age we are experiencing both of them presumption in the sense that nobody wants to talk about sin if you're a reasonably nice person you're guaranteed you know to make it to heaven the minute you die and despair in the sense that there is no hope there's nothing afterward i have nothing to live for suffering is meaningless and i want to end it all before i experience any of it um and so i think that saint elizabeth is a great saint to pray for for the virtue of hope and to overcome these two great you know evils of our time yeah so folks are struggling with these temptations both saint elizabeth and saint perez sound like saints they need to to draw on and i i was just looking at the the photo of her on the book a life of praise to god and she's a little bit plump in that photo but then i've looked seen other photos where she looks emaciated she has the dark circles around her eyes i guess that was getting closer to her death very thin and at first i was confused i thought this the right you know saint but it really happened over a short period didn't it um well it was a kind of a long drawn-out agony she was living for a while on little bits of chocolate and cheese anything that she could digest ice and in the end she couldn't even drink and she said she said to her prior so i know it's very bad but i think the first thing i'm gonna do when i get to heaven is drink as much as she wanted to see the lord face to face she was gonna be looking for the water um so it was uh it was an agony really and it was a long one but she knew the power of suffering she knew the sanctifying power of suffering personally of course it strips us of everything if we allow it to it strips us of everything other than god and can prepare us to receive him in a way that's just magnificent and it's also redemptive i mean the power of suffering is redemptive and it's a gift from god that he allows us to participate in his own crucifixion and death through our own suffering and through that in the restoration of the world and the raising of all things back up to him it's amazing but the power of suffering is something that he's given us as a gift and she embraced that fully she lived those years with him on the cross joyfully but um painfully she called her room the palace of pain and bliss in the infirmary which can seem so it's it's one of those great paradoxes of our faith that it's just a mystery we'll never really completely understand it but it's both beautiful and painful at the same time yeah it is a a complete um mystery isn't it and i i think particularly as catholics will frequently say to whatever's going on to our kids whatever little inconvenience it's like offer it up and it's like well what what does that mean how do i do this but it's a gift whether it's emotional suffering physical suffering disease you know the sufferings of your watching your children take the wrong path whatever it is that suffering can be offered back to christ on the cross to be united with his suffering to make it complete as scripture tells us to to complete the suffering in christ for the redemption of those that we love and for the salvation of souls so we're going to be transitioning shortly to the second half and i think perhaps we can dive into that time that she's in the infirmary you know what her major works are the related letters that she's writing while she's um convalescing why she's getting you know suffering in her last hours and um why she ended up being so prolific she lived such such a short time it's so amazing that during that time she through that suffering was when all these beautiful uh works came to be so we will be back after the break to talk about her works awesome we'll be right back okay so 12 46 what do you want to go to [Music] okay all right market set this is dan and stephanie burke welcome back to divine intimacy radio your radio haven of rest and we're talking with claire dwyer who's written a really amazing book this present paradise the spiritual journey with saint elizabeth of the trinity and if you don't know saint elizabeth you will get to know her in a very beautiful and powerful way through this book through story and through brief reflections there's 38 of them great for a small group study and then also a great companion to this book to really dig into saint elizabeth is a life of praise to god a book that we brought into print in english through the avila foundation through one of our professors and it's an excellent biography so these two together will really get you into this very powerful saint so before the break we mentioned uh we wanted to talk a little bit claire about the her letters or major works in the infirmary you know why why she was so prolific what are her central or maybe final messages uh and um how can she help us to navigate the challenges we faced today yeah well we had we've spoken on some of the other episodes about you know the life of a carmelite and that when you entered a carmelite convent you really were dying to the world and so there was limited correspondence or limited visits limited correspondence allowed for the the nuns ordinarily however elizabeth had a spiritual mother in the convent who was really attentive to her needs the needs of her friends and family and her gifts and mother jermaine recognized that elizabeth had a message for the world and a great gift in expressing it and so she was allowed she was allowed to write quite a bit in her final year and so much of what we have her letters and two major retreats that she wrote which were really a series of reflections to be read over about 10 days one for her sister and one for the nuns and in the convent um are what remain of hers and so we can be grateful that her spiritual mother had this um sensitivity uh to elizabeth and to her gifts and to the needs of the world honestly so of her major works too like i said her retreats heaven and faith which i cover in one of the chapters of the book and then her last retreat which was written for the nuns she also has a number of letters that we consider her major works because they are so significant um one of which is called let yourself be loved of course we've named them she didn't but she wrote this to mother jermaine and she saw in the and it's really a message for all of us she saw in this woman who had the responsibility of this entire convent of nuns in a time which we said in france was extremely perilous and uncertain and yet um had a vocation to be loved by god and so she writes in this beautiful letter to mother jermaine your first vocation in life your first calling is to be loved not to love to be loved to allow god to love you and uh it is just this beautiful message i mean remember what we said the spirituality in france was very focused on doing and here elizabeth is saying no no your first job is to just be just be you and be loved by god which i think is such a powerful message for all of us and so i cover that in the book another one that i talk about is it's called the greatness of our vocation and it was a letter written to her young friend who wrote to elizabeth asking for help in overcoming pride she was really worried about being prideful and elizabeth writes this beautiful letter to her talking about the two virtues of humility and magnanimity and the idea that yes we are called to humility i mean it's primary it's just essential and foundational in the spiritual life to know which means to know who you are before god and before others and to have a proper understanding that without god and his grace you really are nothing and are capable of nothing but with god which is the where magnanimity comes in with god to know that god dwells within you and calls you to great things and will equip you for them we should not be afraid to step out boldly into the challenges of you know the world into the challenges of life and know that we are called to not just survive them but to thrive and to bring christ into them and to transform the world to dream big dreams and to believe that with god we can fulfill them and to know that he won't give us any desires or dreams that he also won't allow us and equip us to fulfill so she encourages her friend to yes be humble but also believe that you are called to greatness and it's not pride to believe that as long as you remember that it's only through god you know that you will accomplish these works that's another parallel with therese isn't it therese uh noted that her aspiration to be a saint is not prideful because it's god's desire right right not she was going to be a saint not because she was great but because god was exactly yeah um out of curiosity when you're reading or and preparing for this i know for me you know i'm working on a book on saint teresa's perspective on spiritual warfare and i've been surprised a few times even though i've read her works i don't know how many times through did anything about elizabeth really surprise you this as you were reading this through and really strike you on a very personal level that you had missed before you started writing this book i think as i came to the end of the work i had a i had a realization that i that for me was very profound um i believe elizabeth is prophetic um we have talked about this on a previous show too she really anticipated vatican ii and the universal call to holiness but i think she's prophetic because and i've worked in the church in various you know means for years and i believe that within the church we make made great strides and we've really come a long way in this idea of evangelization discipleship and catechesis and we really have this understanding that we cannot assume that because somebody is coming to mass on sunday and sitting in the pew that they know jesus christ that they have made a conscious decision to follow him and all the teachings of the church and to sacrifice whatever they need to in order to do that and i think we're coming to that and i think that we i know when i was working at a parish we were very intentional about that being a goal however that is not the goal of our spiritual life the goal of our spiritual life isn't discipleship it's union with god discipleship is the beginning of the journey and so we have to be careful of this uh you know idea that oh you're a disciple and i'm using my hands to for quotation marks you know you've arrived now let's find you somewhere to volunteer because you're done you've made it but i believe that there's a certain restlessness um in the faithful who really have committed their lives to christ i believe it's because they know that there's more and i think the next great step in the church is going to be fulfill those desires by accompanying people into a spiritual journey that is much deeper and farther than they know i think that's what elizabeth's goal job was really in the church to be a prophet for the new age of the holy spirit that we're about to see and like elizabeth and this is another thing we can talk about her similarity and dissimilarity with saint therese like elizabeth it will be a holy hidden movement because it will be within and so maybe different than perhaps like the charismatic renewal or something which was a little bit more external i think elizabeth is a prophet for a new internal um movement of the holy spirit that will come within the hearts of the faithful and we're seeing i i can say we're seeing that movement play out in avila neavo institute and spiritualdirection.com and all we're doing because our our student numbers just keep going up there's more and more people saying the interior i need to know the lord i need to come to union with him i need to deal with this ultimate question of who i am why do i who am i why do i exist who is god how do i find him you know i think there's a deep deep hunger out there that we're seeing in just constantly increasing numbers and demand for what we're doing do you see that stuff yeah especially well even through our retreats and such that we do because there's this realization that we can't depend on the world and the flesh anymore you know people are starting to come to the end of themselves through this dark time and i think that's also drawing them to who is god who am i in relationship to god what is he asking of me how do i get to know him how do i say my yes yeah what does it mean to be a disciple in the truest sense of the word not just kind of hobbling along aside him doing a lot of martha work but rather how do i become mary how do i sit at his feet and receive his message and allow it to transform me and make me holy um that's really i see a hunger for that yeah and i think you you notice something that's powerful and it relates back to what claire said about saint elizabeth being a saint of our time we're coming to the end to the end of materialism the end of political power the end and i mean the end meaning people are realizing it just doesn't lead anywhere you know uh things don't lead anywhere money doesn't lead anywhere power does corruption on both sides yeah yeah it's totally corrupt the health care system even is now corrupted and politicized yeah it's tough it's a very tough time so i think i think you're you're you're you're exactly right yeah so so therese when she left us she said i'm going to go to heaven and my job is going to love and to toss down roses on everybody right and even dr lillis found out his vocation through roses and therese tossing him a bouquet of roses after a prayer so it was really amazing very specific way that she answered his prayers so before she died before elizabeth died what did she say she was going to do from heaven for us right or for the lord you know we talked in another episode about how familiar that she and the nuns were with therese's spirituality so early on um and so they were familiar with story of a stone and they were familiar with what therese said she was going to do which was spent her heaven on earth so she was going to come right back she was going to be you know she's coming back and she is very visible in the way that she intercedes and she's filled with signs and wonders really it's just her personality i love the sense in the sense the saints are more themselves when they get to heaven and so um elizabeth was asked on her deathbed by the nuns are you going to be like therese are you going to come back and elizabeth said no i'm not actually i'm going straight to the heart of the trinity and i am going to bury myself there and then she kind of thought for a minute and she said but if i'm allowed i will come back and my job will be to draw the heart closer to god she had been asked um before this she had been asked by a friend who left the convent it was discerning whether she would ever return she asked elizabeth to pray for a sign whether she would return and elizabeth said well that's not my grace i don't do signs so even before she was sick she was saying that is not my personality that's not my charism and so when she died that really was true elizabeth doesn't usually show herself in fact i think the sign that elizabeth is in your life is that you're closer to god and maybe don't even know how you got there because she would she prefers to be hidden and they think it's so beautiful the church waits a hundred years to canonize her and say all right elizabeth you've been hidden long enough let's just show everybody who's been interceding you uh interceding for you all along wonderful so may we all come to know the hidden elizabeth thank you for this book and for our time together so until next time may the god of peace make you perfect in holiness may he preserve you whole and entire spirit soul and body irreproachable at the coming of our lord jesus christ amen amen

University Of UCADIA 18MAY2011 Episode 27 Part 8-10
court and a previous order was made on my custody and maintenance and so forth with respect to now my question is this you know when you're dealing with a prosecutor and the judge and yourself that's one thing that's a criminal situation this is a family matter mmm dealing with here basically your ex-wife and yourself standing before the judge and we have normally there's two different lawyers where I what my question is is how does that come into play with an EDP or for example if you if there was a case of a court matter and your we weren't in attendance is there a way to petition the court to overturn the previous legal determinations because you weren't there and with the process of the EDT EDPs sorry my question he's kind of a jumbled up question here but other than that it's a good question there's a fellow that was we're going to notice of this week was put in in in jail who had a terrible terrible experience through the family law courts and his children been put into custody after his wife his ex-wife was found to have some serious drug problems and why he originally was not considered or deemed an appropriate parent was never entered into I didn't get into that that was personal but he had gone through the process mmm he also suffered unfortunately because of this is I mean there's nothing more raw and emotion than seeing your children only taken from you but then placed in some foster care and then the system basically denying you the right to see your own children I mean that to me is is would be like someone peeling your fingernails off your fingers or worse and it sent him quite and I have to say this if it's honest its end quite quite man and he ended up sending despite being strongly suggested to him that he not do this because it is then used against him he couldn't stop himself sending off emails and letters and mixing remedies and all sorts of things to the ultimate result that they've arrested him and put him in prison as a threat I would say that that the the evidence of the Family Court is that they they clearly making some joy and money and success out of what they're doing and they are absolutely absolutely the tejas lee trigger happy with anything that does not conform to their rules in other words if you think about what is the most dangerous job in their system as far as risk is concerned it is the family courts yep now and it's not emotions involved yeah for sure yeah and and so the people who are there I don't think are there to be cruel but the system is there to be cruel and the problem I'd suggest you with the family blog court is that anything that is out of the ordinary automatically is instinctively viewed as a threat I've given its image training to the court procedure i'll give you an example where this also applies if you take all the big now massive super massive sheriff departments in the major cities these new huge cinderblock buildings they look like high-rise that people go to now and a processed in the hundreds yep there's new those of these new sheriffs when you go in there they're no longer sheriffs and the old traditional they dressed up like Nazis yet it many actually look like Nazis and they're trained now that if absolutely anybody looks the wrong way they can beat them down taser them spray them and chain them two chairs until they urinate themselves yep so you are dealing unfortunately in the family courts were any single documentation that deviates from the norm is probably going to work against you not for you right now see this is what I've got are you know out of listening to you the last few weeks and of course reviewing all these you know the older ones I got I slowly have been coming to that realization that's this I have never viewed the court as a friend train it's an enemy and especially when it comes to family and father particular worse it all goes back to the destruction of the family unit and breaking down slurs authority and and that's where I unless where I come in might this my ex-wife is this has been I typed a couple of questions a couple weeks ago about you know this Oh in the forum but the what it would it boils down to is my ex-wife this is sort of presented me even though I've gotten court orders and gone to picked it up they she moved the children away a thousand kilometers which is quite a ways to her another province I'm in British Columbia she's in Alberta and I because I didn't understand the law at first I was stupid I allowed that to happen but then I sort of been fighting this and I just want to see my kids and I want to have be part of their life so I might inspire sort of peace or anything because I know that it means if it's a terrible terribly sad story I don't I'm sorry to say quickly in vain is I would consider as the last caller inquiries consider the ADP process as a separate parallel process which is about your claim of right now how you deal specifically with the family court i would i would consider that your knowledge is really really important that you approach it very very carefully like where judge sorry i'm sorry but when a judge rules are say hey you know the custody goes here and lets you pay this much and this isn't it is that an offer and purposes cuz he's yeah okay well that's one of the questions that I need desk there is one other quick question on a different subject what our previous criminal records being expunged or trying to get rid of old old records you know twenty fifteen years ago without a possibility with an EDP if there is possibilities down the road but at the moment we are dealing with a system unraveling so yeah yeah roofie us right yeah we're running the midst of saying to it be equivalent to two trying to talk to the commanders of tanks as they roll through the city yeah yeah yeah yeah so the answer is yes but certainly not yet okay one last quick one they're just this communities and contacting other members for discussion and there's no in my area to get ahold of people you know like even in the Bible it says you know to to don't forsake the gathering yourselves because it's a good thing and it's an interchange of a thought and encouragement I don't I don't know how to find people that are in my area how do I go about that well well well we've had many many hundreds now we'll ever there there's a little bit people register with email as a matter of principle we can't be sharing that around in terms of knowing where people are it's up to two people to want to do that but you've got the you of you the university arcadia university dr. Kadel info you've got the skype groups you've got facebook you've got a multitude of tools that people can utilize and you have the ability yourself that if you don't find one to set one up and then bring people across as they come but all we're going to do with the communities is make that process easier but honestly if people if people don't want to come together now and are waiting passively for it to happen then the communities are not going to suddenly become active I mean that the issue is people being passive um it once you find if your motivation is a frightening monster these society is a frightening monster really right look it is this is why said ending fear once and for all we have people coming together and communicating it is something that I can't physical do that can get people to be that way so getting the tools to make it better is great but that getting people to communicate is up to you and others and I've given you some suggestions it's how you run with it and how you use that that'll learn learning how to use learning how to use the computer okay they see me as much I appreciate okay thank you great thank you for this question yeah thanks for joining us tonight uh next question on the chat would you please clarify Frank on houses honor in the physical effects of spiritual which in turn affects physical ending physically ending suvarna cult absolutely there's the kingdom of ideas ideas that affect the mind because it affects the dimension and environment of the mind let me give an example it doesn't occur to us that we could live in beautiful buildings we would like to maybe but we're happy to accept living in boxes squared boxes and because we're happy to live in square boxes some of us may find ourselves in prison for a part of time or a long time in a smaller box so we condition our mind our mind gets conditioned in the environment to believe that boxes are part of it similar to cars and travel we're conditioned to believe now that the only way the human race that Homo sapiens species will go into the future is live cities and that we by necessity will have to travel long distances to work well that's not how societies worked or that a city could not be effectively hundreds if not thousands of villages that are all connected but our conditioning is that this is a monolithic plantation where we work one place we live another place and that we are totally dependent on the system for our survival so ideas affect the mind and because ideas affect the mind the mind is affected in the mine produces the result so let me go through it mind + idea equals behavior I mean that is the most powerful example of the power of an idea Rome is an idea they're their claim of authority is an idea their laws are an idea but because they're an idea believed by the mind we make them real I mean think about this if the FBI i believe when i was a child that the FBI stood for something because i would watch the shows on TV and you'd see them finding bad guys and they were men that couldn't be corrupted and that they would try their best so I grew up in a country not even America believing that the FBI stood for the highest of integrity I now realize that the FBI are a gun for hire they more corrupt than the worst militias in the world they're full of stupid stupid people and they do not give a damn about their own badge I mean I was I mean heartbroken to see those images as a child broken by the reality of the world but in spite of that if the FBI at the FBI and the members of the FBI one day woke up and said you know what I'm not going to work for an organization that lies to me and lies to the world and they all resigned at once it'd be the end of the FBI so ideas are extremely powerful but you need an idea and that's what your caterer is so an idea is described an idea is how many people accept that there is a continent in one heaven they may not agree with it they may not have read it most people haven't but they accept that there is a thing called the Covenant one heaven well if there is a covenant one heaven and I ask you does heaven exists you wouldn't even blink and say yes it does so that's the power of an idea even its existence changes that dimension and that's what we're dealing with so there are some examples of how an idea changes behavior and behavior ends a kingdom of ideas and that's what we're doing we're consuming them and changing them and you can see with your own mind when you cease to fear then you can do great things when people cease to fear their world ends that's the power of the mind it only needs a few thousand in America in the country of 300 plus million it only needs a few thousand to wake up to change it that's the power of an idea I hope I answer the question yes very good Frank I did you say it also has to do with the masses are the numbers that would recognize that entity so speak or the Roman cult for example the Pope is recognized all the way around the world he's recognized he's recognized by over a billion wrong there ever been in Catholics but is recognized by the majority planet but there's an interesting thing about not

Creating New Habits Successfully
so I'm very happy to be here I have Irish roots as do many people in Canada my mother's father my maternal grandfather our family was well they still are some of them living up there an echo sound if you know where that is it's little teeny town way up on the north northwest corner of Ireland one of these times i hope to get there and see what it's like I think it's pretty humble beginnings my cousin went to visit their several years ago and he found my great aunt Catherine who lives in a little thatched one-room cottage with Pete on the floor so my father used to joke Arlene there's only one way to go up for this family and that's up so it's kind of fun to be back in Ireland and yes pastor Edwards has been working me very diligently in case you're wondering I was born in calgary alberta canada some of you probably know where that is my father was a preacher a seventh-day adventist preacher so I'm a preacher's kid I don't know what those words mean to you there's a stereotype about preachers kids you know I'm a preacher's kid I tell pastor Edwards what that means is I'm not afraid of him and then when I was 16 my father was asked to move to New York and so we emigrated to the United States and it was a culture shock because even though there's just this long border between Canada and the United States they're really very different and Canada is much more British than America of course and so it was a shock and when I was 16 and my brain wasn't done yet the kids laughed at me for the way I spoke the way I would pronounce some words for example I remember asking somebody do you have a two car or a one-car garage we called where you put cars a grad and they started to chuckle and they said what are you talking about i said you know where you parked cars next to the house they said do you mean a garage I ask somebody where the bus schedule was they said what I said where's the bus schedule and they said are you talking about a schedule and I remember there was a little creek that ran behind Atlantic union college where I went to school and I said to my roommate let's go down and take a walk by the creek and she said what's a creek I said you know a little stream of water no she said when something creaks you sit on it and it makes a sound so it's not always easy to move from one country to another even if you think the countries are very similar but I'll tell you it's good for your brain unfortunately I know not one single word of Romanian and the pastor didn't take time to teach me even hello so it's his problem not mine all right I've had lots of requests on how do you create new behaviors successfully with what we know about brain function so recently I created a new PowerPoint presentation and you're the first person outs 1st group outside of America it's getting to hear it so let me give you just a little bit about the brain so we sort of start on the same page if you put your two fists together that's the size of your brain and one teenager came up to me and said I must be really smart because look how big my hands are and I had to tell him that size is not necessarily have anything to do with being smart if you pulled those two hemispheres apart a little you could see three or four bridges that let the right hemisphere talk to the left hemisphere and that's really important because if those two hemispheres can't talk to each other then the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing literally so there's a minuscule number of brains that are born without that biggest bridge called the corpus callosum and for those people you could say put your right hand on your left shoulder okay that's easy for us to do we don't even think about it but because that brain was missing that bridge the person started to move their hand got to the midline of the body and that's as far as the hand would go it would never ever go over and touch the shoulder so it's really kind of interesting how those two hemispheres work together if you think of your hand as a newer on a thinking cell well you're the palm of your hand that could compare with the cell body of the neuron if you remember that from biology your thumb would represent that one big projection that leaves that on and that's how information goes out of that neuron and talks to another neuron and that's all thinking is one neuron is talking to another neuron you have lots of fingers on a neuron or thinking cell 10,000 if you have stimulated your brain and as one neuron talks to another neuron they never touch each other imagine that you were meeting somebody and you wanted to say hello so you went to give them a fist pump which is very common in the United States now because of infections but you don't actually touch them there's a space between your two fists there's always a space between two neurons and now you have to have neurotransmitters that take the information and swim across this synapse I think of it as Hong Kong harbor and they'll dump the information now into the fingers that came out of the axon of the other neuron it's just like Star Wars I was talking about this to a group of high school students and they said this is more complicated than Star Wars I said it is it's amazing your brain is the most amazing organ in your body on this planet and in our known universe and what's exciting about living now for me is that we're getting so much information about how the brain functions because of brain imaging equipment so some of what I'm going to talk to you tonight comes from this really latest information isn't it marvelous we've got some gurus over here that know what they're doing and so they're going to take care of me the only bad thing is I was lecturing one time and I said something that the PA expert didn't like and all of a sudden they had Mike and I tapped on it and I said do we have a mic problem he said no I don't like what you said so I turned you off so I'm really hoping you avoid turning me off tonight all right steps to success in creating a new behavior when people say why do I need to know this and we need to know this because every person on this planet has at least one behavior that isn't working for them and they need to create a new one and it's like having a map if you know what to do to create a new behavior you can create almost anything it's like learning to drive a stick shift car if you don't know how to shift you're going to be in big trouble so it's going to be easier to create a new behavior when you know a little bit about what happens in the brain so there are five steps to creating a new behavior and I always like to make a little phrase and remember that so it helps me remember the steps so this is my phrase I took the first letter of each step and made a different word with it so most slugs race with vigor do you know what a slug is a slug is like a very slow snail so they would never race with vigor so when you make something that's a little crazy your brain is much more likely to remember it than just something else so most slugs race with vigor all right let's and you could pick something else that works for your brain but that works for mine all right let's talk about each one of those steps if you want to create a new behavior what do you do how do you work with your brain the first thing we need to talk about is mindset because that's the first step bottom line is this everything starts in your brain and it begins with a mindset yours if you think you can or you think you can't either way you're right because your brain will only do what it thinks it can do and how does your brain know what it can do you tell it yes your brain is part of you but it's also a separate entity in a sense so you need to tell your brain what it can do and if you tell it what it can do it is more likely to do it so what's the definition of a mindset read with me because if you read out loud not only is it stimulating for your brain 10 minutes of reading aloud today is every day as an anti-aging strategy did you hear that okay how many of you read aloud 10 minutes a day 1 2 3 since yesterday good girl you're building a new behavior reading aloud 10 minutes a day is an anti-aging strategy that's one good part because it's so stimulating to your brain the other part is when you read aloud the information tends to go directly into long-term memory and you're much more likely to be able to recall it when you want to so read aloud with me the first paragraph mindset definition a mental attitude or disposition that predetermines your responses a set of opinions about something that strongly influences your inclinations alright what's an example of that a mental attitude or disposition that predetermines your responses so let's say that you have learned that it's very good for your brain and body if you drink a big glass of water 30 minutes before you eat a meal because that makes sure that you're not eating because you're thirsty because you've drunk the water you're eating because your body really needs the food and you tend to not overeat if your mental attitude or mindset is it's better for me if I drink a big glass of water 30 minutes before a meal you're much more likely to do it it predetermines your responses because you believe that you have initiated that behavior so changing or creating a new behavior starts with your mindset what is it that you have decided you believe and that you are going to do I like the iceberg metaphor because the brain learns fastest with a metaphor so here's a picture of an iceberg and have you ever seen an iceberg in real life I went up to British Columbia not too long ago to visit some of my relatives and their house is on the San Juan straight that separates the mainland of Vancouver with Vancouver Island and we were just looking out the window one day and here comes this great big iceberg floating down I'd never seen a real one before and it didn't look very big and I said oh that's not a very big iceberg but I'm seeing an iceberg how neat and my cousin looked at me and he said that's a huge iceberg he says look what's sticking up above the water it's like a huge semi-trailer and I said what so he went to the Internet and pulled up a picture and said most of it is under the water you don't see it that's what hit the Titanic and sank the Titanic you only see a little bit okay here's the metaphor for your brain your conscious mind the part where you can you know what you're thinking you know i can tell you my name is Arlene Taylor I know where I was born i know where i am now I know I'm talking to you that's your conscious mind it represents this little bit that's sticking up above the water but my subconscious mind is this huge portion that's under the water that I'm not always aware of but it thinks even though i'm not thinking consciously the massive subconscious mind has an uncanny sense of whether or not you mean business so if you say to yourself well you know research says i should drink a big glass of water before i eat a meal that's probably true but i don't know if it would do me much good you know if I feel like it I will your brain is not going to build a new behavior because it knows you're not serious it only helps you build a new behavior if its senses you are really serious about this so that's what the first step is what your mind said are you really serious about doing this behavior there are two mindsets in the literature one is called a fixed mindset and one is called a growth mindset and if you want to do a new behavior you need a growth mindset people with a fixed mindset believe that however they came in the world that's who they are they can't change they often feel like well look at me I can't be successful this is how I am you know came from a really uneducated family my mother was the first female in 15 generations who ever went to college so a lot of people think can't do this well you can't if you have a fixed mindset because it says it's hopeless I am Who I am can't do anything about it so dump that one and develop a growth mindset which says you can change and improve through application rehearsal experience vigilance and course correction and anybody who ever learns to do something new does so because they have a growth mindset and that's what you need in order to change behavior so dr. Dweck who has written the book mindset says having a growth mindset doesn't force you to pursue something it just tells you that you can develop your skills if you want to it's still up to you whether or not you want to and I want to i love this information so where does the mindset come from hmm probably starts two or three or four generations back because you get what's called cellular memory from your ancestors about their behaviors but certainly it begins during pregnancy because sound is the first sensory system to develop in a little fetus and we know from research that when the baby is born it recognizes voices that it heard often during pregnancy and if the mother and father played songs over and over again it'll recognize that song after it's born one of the most amazing things that ever happened to me as a student nurse I was in a delivery room with the the mother and the father and the doctor and here comes this cute little baby girl born and she started just to cry and scream and kick her little legs and acted like she wasn't happy I think I would have been delighted to be out of that birth canal so her father calmly walked over and he put his hand on the baby's arm and he said Angela this is your dad speaking you're just fine you're safe we're so happy to have you here she stopped crying instantly and focused her little eyes on the sound of that voice when the doctor said did you talk to her a lot while she was your wife was pregnant he said every day said well she obviously knows your voice and it's such a sweet sweet story to be so you develop your mindset from what you hear people say to you Angela I'm glad you're here I'm your father from what you hear people say about you and that's why you need to go back and think about that did people tell you you can do it the sky's the limit we'll help you do it or did they say to you you're too dumb to do that what did they tell you because if they told you you were too dumb to do it you probably developed a fixed mindset but the good news is you can change that just because that was that's what you heard you don't have to believe that you do not have to believe everything anyone tells you about yourself and you develop a growth mindset by watching your parents and the people took care who took care of you and how did they behave did they say you know I think there are more opportunities for us in America than there are in Canada so we're going to move to America certainly that was a huge benefit for me when my father and mother decided they would emigrate to the United States because I doubt I would be a brain function specialist today if I had stayed in Canada because there is a different expectation for women in Canada than there is in the United States so I'm delighted that they moved to the United States I still go back to Canada although they changed the flag so it doesn't feel the same I mean I used to salute the Union Jack in the corner of the Canadian flag and some time after I moved to America they changed the flag do you know what it looks like now it's a maple leaf okay I like maple trees but what in the world doesn't may believe I have no emotional connection to the maple leaf none what's none whatsoever so when I see them may believe it's no big deal but when I see the old Canadian flag I can almost start to tear up because i saluted that flag for 16 years studies with four-year-olds this is huge because the brain matures from the back to the front and there's not a lot I mean the brain is growing really quickly but when you're for you know there's not a lot of development that's made so the teacher says to this group of four year olds you have a choice and choice is important I encourage you to start giving your children choices from the time they're tiny two choices only because you only have two hemispheres and it doesn't matter what they are it can be really simple you know I told one mother take a fork with a blue handle and a fork with the red handle and hold them both both up and say to the one-year-old which fork do you want doesn't matter to you but give them a choice so they start learning to make choices and if they pick the red when you put the blue in a way that was their choice for today another day that might make a different choice so the teacher said you have a choice they had just done a jigsaw puzzle that was very easy to do and the teacher said you can do another easy jigsaw puzzle or redo this one or you can try a harder jigsaw puzzle and they watch what the kids would choose and children with a fixed mindset chose to redo the puzzle that they had just done because they wanted to look smart and if you've already done it once it's it's easier to do it again the kids with the growth mindset chose the new harder puzzle so they could stretch themselves and become smarter can you see how that would work now they grow up and they're in a job and there's something they've never done before and they have the option to do that and maybe get more education in advance but they don't want to do that they just want to do really good at what they know so they appear smarter because when you learn something new you don't learn it instantly you'll make mistakes and so on but it's good for you to stretch your brain you're only going to do that if you have a growth mindset there's a book written called Peter Pan it's an imaginary story about a boy who could fly and the author made this statement that so aligns with current brain function information he said the moment you doubt whether you can fly you cease forever to be able to do it the moments you doubt that you can learn to do something you probably never learned to do it the moment you doubt that you can create a new healthier behavior your brain isn't going to help you do it because your brain can only do what it thinks it can do and how does it know what it can do you tell it so what do you want to do doctors tansy and chopra wrote a book called super brain recently their brain function researchers and this is what they say what do you want to do what behavior do you know would improve your life maybe make you more healthy make your relationships better maybe help you get a better job if you are not serious and think you can't or if metaphorically you're just sitting on the fence not sure which way to go your brain won't help you and that's where we get this saying that I love your brain can only do what it thinks it can do and you tell it what it can do how do you tell it what it can do brand new research about that so here is a cutaway if you will of the brain so this thinking part of the brain I just took it and put it on a scanner took a picture of it then I cut it up and pulled the sections apart so that you could see that there's three functional layers of the brain you can even think of it as your left your left wrist is this first or reptilian layer and then if you made a fist out of your left hand your fist would be that second or mammalian layer and then here's that cerebrum grey matter cortex and that's where you have some conscious thought but not a lot so the human brain was designed to deal easily with positive statements there a one part process they tell you exactly what to do easy for the brain to do that so if I were to say to Pastor Edwards stand up and come over here I need you that's considered a one-part positive statement I have told him exactly what to do and that's what we need to tell the brain because it does best with that and and this is you can find this all in Scripture so those of you who study Scripture go read The Lord's Prayer whole thing is written in positives only tells you what to do easy for the brain because everything you read think hear the words are changed into pictures in your mind and these subconscious layers don't use language any language but they can see the pictures that are formed in this part of your brain by what you say and they follow the pictures and that's the reason it has to be positive in present tense because a negative statement tells your brain what not to do but it doesn't tell you what to do so if i say to you don't think about the white bear it tells you not to do what think about the white bear but your brains already made a picture of the white bear and it's in working memory so that's all you're going to want to think about is the white bear it does not tell you what to do so the first thing you need to be really clear about is if you want to change your behavior avoid ever telling yourself don't do that behavior because you'll put the picture in your brain and that's all you're going to want to do the first and second layers aren't very good at reversing the picture sometimes it's easy if I say to you don't touch the stove what's the first picture touching the stove but don't is supposed to tell you don't touch the stove but your brain has to convert that picture and logically it would be keep your hand away from the stove but sometimes the brain those two layers miss the don't and they fail to get the picture converted so you say to a seven-year-old kid don't touch the stove already made the picture of touching the stove touches the stove and gets burned because the subconscious follows the picture now we punish the kid for touching the stove whose fault was it we gave him the wrong picture to follow so you tell the child keep your hand away from the stove that's a positive instruction that's the picture and you've got about an eighty-five percent chance that the child will keep their hand away from the stove it's not a hundred percent but 85 is a really good average this comes from work by a researcher named dr. Daniel Wegner and he talks about this for one part 2 part self-talk are one step two step so don't think about the white bear is that a one step or a two step process it's a two-step process and very difficult for the brain to follow for adults you tell yourself I don't want to do that and what do you end up doing what you just told yourself you didn't want to do so start telling yourself only what you do want to do always in a positive never in a negative and this is what he says when you say don't think about the white bear a representation of a white bear goes into your brains working memory and you will likely think about it even more frequently and I had a really sharp kid in a college freshman class I was teaching one time and I said don't think about the white bear and he immediately said okay dr. Taylor tell me what you want me to think about said good for you and one of the other students said oh probably a brown bear or a black bear and he said only if she wants me to think about a bear I thought that was brilliant alright so positive self-talk that's step two once you've got your mind set and you're sure what you're going to do and you're telling your brain this is what we are doing then stop talking about what you don't want to have happen totally ignore it only talk about what you want to have happen as if it's a done deal speak as if the desired behavior is already in place and happening right now critical for altering behaviors creating a new behavior use short positive present tense words now supposing that you've decided you've learned that drinking sodas regular or diet is not good for your brain and immune system and it isn't if you say don't drink sodas what's the picture drinking sodas absolutely so you would say your first name followed by you because you are talking to your brain Maria you drink only water today you like the taste you feel good only tell it what you are doing even if you haven't started doing it yet so we got a group of kids together and we had them walk along a two-by-four and every time somebody called out don't fall somebody fell off the two-by-four because there's the picture of falling well mark you are walking the plank successfully you are having fun almost always they made it to the end of the plank parents teachers and caregivers who are patient teach children the unemotional useful step-by-step language for mastering any task through role modeling effective self-talk and talking to others and then the children start learning to do that for themselves and that's often if they've got parents and teachers like that that's often how the next generation gets more successful in the first one so that you might hear the child's say Jack or Jill you can do it try again and that's what the well taught child is more likely to say to him or herself if your role modeling talking like this there was an amazing study by a researcher called Ethan Kross took a group of students high school students divided him into two groups and he said to them all right here's your assignment you have five minutes to prepare to give a five-minute speech they told one group tell yourself I am giving a speech the other group you say Arlene you're giving a speech and you're doing a good job then they actually had them do this beach and they brought in judges to judge independently the speeches and this is what they found participants using their given name and the word you talking to their brain perform better on the speech engaged in far less rumination after saying oh I didn't do such a good job that was embarrassing I knew I couldn't do it experience less depression perceived less shame for mistakes they made and on and on and on but those using I and me felt inadequate and gave poor speeches so that's the research so learn how to talk to yourself dr. Cross says your brain is a sponge you know the sponges soaks up water well your brain soaks up what it hears what it reads what it sees and when you use I and me it hooks into your self-esteem level so if you have poor levels of self-esteem I don't think I'm very good at this I'm not sure I can do this I don't know how smart I am you usually do a much poorer job so using first name and you empowers the participants so that what others see as a threat they view as a challenge and that works for anybody of any age when you talk to others you tend to talk to them the way you talk to yourself and you may not realize that but you do statistically so first of all you teach yourself to talk to yourself in ways that get your brains attention and then you're more likely to talk to other people like that and again it's don't forget your homework and what's the picture for getting your homework or Mary put your homework in your bookbag don't miss the target and the picture is throwing the dart missing the target versus Jim aim for the bullseye you might not hit it every time but statistically you're getting a lot closer to it than if you tell a child don't miss the target this was an interesting one I don't want to yell up my children or Jill you speak kindly did the children and this lady come to visit me in my office and she said I'm a screamer all screaming at my kids I realized yesterday that I don't want them to grow up with memories of their mothers just screaming at them and I tell myself I don't want to yell up my kids and I turn around and yell at my kids so I said every time you say I don't want to yell at my kids what picture did she put in her brain yelling at her kids I said you need to say Jill you speak kindly to your children she said but I don't I said well start Jill you speak kindly to your children I said you're still going to have to use willpower but you put a picture in your brain of speaking kindly to your children instead of screaming at him like a banshee 3 rehearse and rehearse so pick a new behavior that one was a new behavior for me drinking a glass of water before I eat so I described the new behavior to myself I say Arlene you're going to drink a big glass of water before every meal you know that that's going to keep you from having a dehydrated brain that's shrinking away from your skull which is an ugly thought and it puts the picture in there of reminding you to drink a big glass of water before each meal so then you actually rehearse the behavior lunch is coming up oh yes glass of water t is coming up oh yes glass of water you actually do the behavior in real time but here's the next piece you picture the behavior in your mind's eye and even when you're not actually drinking the water periodically you see yourself in your mind's eye going to get a glass of water and drinking it before you eat about 30 minutes before you eat so you are reinforcing the actual practice with virtual practice and it'll make it go twice as fast if you've been on a boat or a fairy or anything like that usually there's a lifeboat drill if it's a big one I was on the qe2 some years ago lecturing on a trip from New York up to New Brunswick so the very first thing they had us do was go to our cabin and get our life jackets and climb up to our particular assigned place on the deck put our life jacket on and then they told us look around if we have an emergency then this is where you go grab your life jacket and you come here and that's called actual rehearsal when I got on the plane in San Francisco to fly over to London they didn't have the oxygen masks drop from the ceiling they said to us in the event of an unexpected landing don't you like those words unexpected landing I don't want an unexpected landing in the event of an unexpected landing oxygen masks will drop from the ceiling what are you supposed to do with them if you have a child with you what are you supposed to do with them put it on the child no you put it on your own face first so you get the oxygen and you can stay clear enough then to help the child and so they go through this it's not really happening but in your brain you make that picture here comes the oxygen mask put it on me first and then take the oxygen mask and help my grandmother or my child or whoever's next to me sometimes it might be another adult who's just gone ballistic they're so terrified you'll need to help get the but get it on yourself first so when you are learning a new behavior reinforce the actual rehearsal with virtual rehearsal and let me give you an example of how that happens because it increases the rate at which you learn how many of you play the piano one two three four five six seven eight good two hands oh you can play with two hands very good how many of you play another instrument just for interests sake okay what do you play the accordion whoo there's a lot of organ famous organist who started on accordions you play on I'm talking about a musical instrument anybody else play a musical instrument what do you play the recorder my boys played recorders come on I said Romania very musical isn't that a musical country okay so everybody needs to be learning to play a musical instrument it's very very good for your brain and age proofs your brain so find an instrument and find somebody to help you learn and start tomorrow if you don't know how all right so what they did was took two kids about the same age who we're taking piano lessons and they were about the same ability at the moment and they asked one of them here's a piece of music I want you to actually practice the piano for two hours a day for seven days and they did a brain scan before the child started practicing for those 14 hours and when the child was done they did another brain scan and they could actually see in the brains cortex how it had reshaped itself to learn that piece of music after just 14 hours of practice then they took another child and they said to them here's the piece of music we don't want you to go near the piano for the next seven days but we want you to prop this piece of music up maybe on your Bureau and we want you to spend two hours a day for seven days just looking at that music and in your mind's eye imagining that you're playing it and they took a PET scan before he started and after he started and the virtual piano practice caused the same reshaping of the brains motor cortex so do the practicing really and then do it in your mind's eye and you will accelerate the rate at which you learn amazing when you are learning a new behavior live a balanced lifestyle avoid exhaustion get enough sleep for your brain because every period of exhaustion is followed by a corresponding period of depression and the exhaustion tends to lower levels of a neurotransmitter called serotonin and you need a certain amount of serotonin to be happy and so as that falls you can get depressed and then it's really hard to learn a new behavior when you're depressed I don't know if anybody's been depressed but if you're depressed you just don't feel like doing anything so if you're learning trying to learn a new behavior and you get exhausted and then you get depressed it's going to be more difficult for you to learn all right willpower willpower is such an interesting mental faculty willpower is believed to be housed right behind your your forehead and it's that part of the brain isn't done until mid to late twenties so this would be right behind the forehead and that's where we believe will power is but that part of the brain takes a long time to develop so hopefully you've been making choices and learning how to use willpower even when you're very little so that when that finally gets done you've got the skills already built and now your willpower can help you be successful this is what willpower is unable to help you do in general willpower rarely if ever works well to deprive yourself of something you already do for gratification like ending a bad habit especially one that involves addictive behaviors so people who understand this someone's trying to quit smoking for example they'll say well use your willpower okay willpower is not designed to help you quit smoking because you get a reward from that it might kill you in the end but at the moment you get a reward from it willing yourself to do something it's just again don't think about the white bear it puts that right in working memory and that's all you think about willpower is designed to give you energy and perseverance to attain a specific goal and that might be a brand new behavior you've never done before like you're all going to start learning to play a musical instrument right so that's a new behavior or to develop a healthier replacement behavior because that was giving you negative outcomes that's what willpower can help you do but you only talk about what you are doing now as if it's a done deal and you never talk about what you don't want to do anymore because you want to avoid putting that picture in working memory how long is this going to take doesn't happen instantly I have come to the conclusion from research that probably about 12 weeks is what you're going to need to have to really implement a new behavior and have it in place lots of research about that in some researchers in some research studies the average time it took for somebody to build a brand new behavior and get it really in place with 66 days and so just some took longer than that some took a little less but in the longevity lifestyle matters program that I now run it's a 12-week program because we've got the research that takes about that long to really get the program in place but if you do this by the end of 12 weeks the behavior is usually firmly in place and then eventually it'll be stronger than the one you're replacing if it's a replacement behavior or your new behavior will be pretty much in place and then you just keep on doing it for the rest of your life so step number five be vigilant I like that word vigilant isn't that what the the ten virgins with their oil lamps were told to be vigilant pay attention stay aware awareness is your choice and there's an interesting little phrase that says awareness is the first step on the continuum of positive change you have to be aware of what it is you want to do and go through the process so you're building a new behavior you're drinking a big glass of water before every meal stay aware and make sure you do it train yourself to notice if halfway through that meal you oh I didn't drink that's that's awareness that's happening really quickly you don't want to wait three weeks from now to remember that oh I'm forgetting to drink before my meal you want to be aware of that quickly so you can course-correct so you realize the goop I didn't drink before my meal today so what are you going to do to help remind yourself maybe you're going to leave a glass right out there on the table maybe you're going to put a sign there that says drink a glass of water 30 minutes before you eat whatever it takes to remind yourself if you're let's say that you've decided that eating half a gallon of ice cream at night in front of television is not doing you any good and I work with a lot of people who do that get ice cream out of your environment had a woman who was trying to live healthier and I and she was really morbidly obese meaning she was so heavy that she was going to shorten her life span if she didn't do something about it so she came to see me and she said you know I've been weighing myself every week and I've been eating more healthfully but I've gained a pound in the last week and I don't know what I'm doing wrong I said well this week handed her piece of paper I want you to write down every day everything you eat and then bring it back and let's look at it and let's see if what you're eating is not what's recommended oh she said I'm eating really healthily I said okay fine do it bring it back comes back in a week hands me the piece of paper it's all filled out she said that was a lot of work I said well let me look at it so I start going down the list and I come to an entry that says ice cream two bowls it's on every night of the week I said tell me about the ice cream oh she said that well you know I do like a little treat at night while I'm watching television since you know how much do you know how much fat as an ice cream and how much sugar no wonder you're gaining a pound two bowls every single night is a lot of ice cream how serious are you about this and she goes well I'm just using it up I said what she says I'm just using it up she said there was a sale on ice cream and I filled my freezer with ice cream I don't want to waste it I said you are wasting it it's going directly to your waist if you want to change that behavior get that ice cream out of your environment there's night and day difference between running to the freezer and here's all this ice cream and having to get in the car and drive to a store and buy some ice cream how serious are you about this oh well she said my mother told me not to waste anything I said don't give it away to people who don't care but if you care get it out of your environment so she comes back to me and she says I did it I said what did you do she says I found an orphanage and they needed in a freezer and I gave them my freezer and I gave them all the ice cream at the same time she said don't know what they're gonna do with it but it's out of my house so if you aren't doing a new behavior get rid of everything related to that behavior that's going to make you unsuccessful I say that vigilance is the price of success so you forget to drink water for this meal okay get right back on the program so yeah made a misstep you know some people will say oh I forgot to drink water both it at lunch and tea today so it's hopeless are you nuts yeah made a boo-boo start all over again quickly keep your self-talk positive thank your brain for helping you you might say Arlene you're remembering to drink water before every meal Thank You brain for helping me I mean your brain loves to be thanked how often do you think your brain for helping you do stuff have you ever thanked your brain for helping you do stuff well that's kind of depressing do you like to be thanked thank you brain I mean it's an amazing organ Janet your brains helping you be successful it's fun being successful and then enjoy it so there you go most slugs race with vigor get your mind set a growth mindset decide what it is the behavior is that you want to do talk to yourself the way researchers have found that enhances your risk for being successful Arlene you are drinking a glass of water before every meal you're keeping your brain hydrated rehearse every day you do it if you forget for a meal do something to help you remind help remind you for the next meal use your will power to help you do the behavior forget what you don't want to do concentrate on what you do want to do and then stay aware awareness is vigilance is what you need for success and being aware of what you're doing is part of that okay if you got it now I know that every one of you in this room has some behavior that you would like to develop or tweak because that's the human condition so this is what we have found works and I think oh let's finish up with this because I do love this when my mother died she was a schoolteacher my mother was a schoolteacher when she died I was cleaning out her desk and I found this poem I wish I knew who wrote it but it's the very best poem I've ever found that talks about how powerful habits are which means that it can be struggle to change a habit but once you've done it or once you've built a new habit you've got it you got the software which brings me to one caution be careful what you do once because whenever you do something once the brain makes no judgment about whether that's good or bad or helpful or unhelpful or right or wrong or desirable it just says oh well you did this ok I'm going to start a piece of software here so that if you ever want to do that again it'll be easier for you to do it a second time do you get that so if you don't think the behavior that you're considering is something that you really want to do that will be good for your brain and body never do it once because the minute you've done it once you've got the software which always makes it easier to do again so let's finish up by reading this poem together it's called I am habit it is mighty hard to shake me in my brawny arms I take thee I can either make or break thee I am habit through each day I slowly mold the soon my tightening chains and fold thee than it is with ease I hold the i.m habit I can be both good and vile I can err be worth your while or the cause of your D Crile I am habit oft I've proved myself a pleasure proved myself a priceless treasure or a menace past all measure I am habit harmless though I sometimes seem yet my strange force is like a mag it like a great and greedy dragnet I am habit though you sometimes fear or doubt me no one yet has lived without me I am present all about thee I am habit choose me well when you are starting seldom is an easy parting I'm a devil or a darling I am habit isn't that a marvelous poem love it so there you go now you know the steps that researchers say help you to develop a brand new behavior or a healthier replacement behavior I'm pretty sure these are on my website but i'll double check so that you can go back and get the powerpoints any time you want to refresh your memory and you can do almost anything that you really want to do if it's something that a human being is capable of doing but just following the steps and have fun doing

Finding Sections of the Doon Library (2017)
Retrieving books, magazines and dvd's part one. Finding sections of the Doon Library. If you want to access a book, magazine or DVD in the library’s collection, you’ll need to know where to find it. Come on into the library, and let’s get started locating a resource on the shelf. There’s a handy computer near the Service Desk which you can use to search. You can also search the LRC’s collections online, from anywhere. When your search retrieves a physical resource, for example a book or a DVD, you must take note of the location, call number and status of the resource to find it within the library. The location tells you which of Conestoga’s libraries the book is stored at. The call number is very important. This letter and number system tells you where on the shelves the book is located. The status tells you whether the book or DVD is currently available, or if it’s checked out by another library user. If it is checked out, the “Due Date” tells you when it’s expected to be returned to the library. There are few different sections within the library where books and DVDs are stored. In this case, the status is General Collection. The General Collection is the main section of the library, containing academic books. These books may be signed out and taken home. Let’s return to the Service Desk to explore some other collections you may encounter. The Reserve Collection is located behind the Service desk. Resources in this section are reserved for in-library use only, because they are high-use items, for example, supplemental course texts. Most DVDs in the collection are related to curricular topics, and are academic or program related. These DVDs are kept behind the Service Desk and may be signed out and viewed within the library. The Popular Fiction collection contains popular novels in paperback form, including graphic novels. A separate Popular Films collection near the service desk includes popular DVDs. These may be signed out and taken home. Lastly, the Periodicals section contains popular and professional magazines as well as academic journals. Thanks for listening. Always ask at the Service Desk if you’re not sure where to find something.

VarAC: Install, Configure and Use
hi everybody Stu ag6ag today we're going to take a look at a software package called VAR AC bar AC recently sprung on to the market as a digital front and software package it utilizes the Vara modem software packages as its transport layer so if you're currently running windlink you probably have both varas installed the Vara and the Vara FM you might even have the Vara satellite installed as well and guess what VAR AC supports that as well now it has a lot of really neat features file transfer virtual mail or Vara mail which never touches the internet and is incapable of going on the internet it has real time keyboard to keyboard chat the ability to call CQ and exchange data information it can broadcast messages out onto a frequency as well as allow you to Beacon and exchange ping information with other people out there on that frequency I like this software I think it's a little rough around the edges um but I wanted to get a review out and I wanted to get an instructional video out on how to get it installed and pretty much how to use it uh I have a full review and of my opinion at the end of the video and I'd really appreciate it if you stuck around to watch that and commented on your opinion about the software after you get it set up and it played with it a little bit all right anyway with that uh oh well while you're down there you know thinking about making a comment do me a favor and hit the Subscribe button for me it really helps me out and if you like this video of course click like uh and you can even hit a notify icon if you're subscribed and you'll get notified when I come out with new material so with that hey let's jump right into it all right well I'm Stu ag6ag let's get VAR AC installed on the PC shall we so let me go ahead and switch my view here a little bit I am going to launch my browser and I am going to type in the VAR AC homepage URL which is v-a-r-a-c Dash ham radio dot com that'll take me directly to their website and from here I can go ahead and download VAR AC now I need to make it clear VAR AC is not Vara at all Vara Vara HF Vara sat this is not uh not the same thing this is a front end to the Vara modem that allows you to do all sorts of cool things with what the Vara modem is capable of doing but it does not contain the Vara Vara FM or Vara SAT software you would have to install that separately if you don't know how to do that I'm going to try to put something up in the top here for links on where I've shown that in other video groups mostly dealing with windling and uh hey since you're in there you might check win link out for an install anywhere right in anyway with this it talks about the prerequisites I should have Vara HF version 4.7.2 or Vara FM version 4.2.7 now uh if you're running Vara currently there's no issue with updating is fairly straightforward and I never had it fail after an update so I would feel comfortable telling you go ahead and update but your mileage may vary it says optional for Omni rig uh it works with Omni rig but only with the version one Omni rate there's a version one and a version two they're done by two different groups uh the version 1.2 is the current version of the version one software that's what I use because it's compatible with all sorts of different software ham radio software packages the Vara 2 groups only compatible with the couple and unfortunately it's not compatible with the ones that I use so I'm on Vara one or excuse me uh Omni rig one anyway with that let's continue on let's get this downloaded really it wants my name it wants my call sign or it wants an email address I really don't uh have a problem with that I'm going to go ahead and uh I've already done this with my real name and everything else okay with my call sign and all that it will ask you to put this in every time you go here to download So for updates everything else it'll still ask you to do it I put my real address in here and not had a problem I'm not getting any spam from them I'm getting pretty much basic information so I'm good with that uh I'm going to go ahead and type in a email that I created just for the video and uh there we go and we'll go ahead and download and it's just gonna download it it's not going to go and verify I can see down in the corner here it's downloaded the latest version so it hasn't asked me to verify a link or anything else you know that makes me feel good now I clicked on this to open it and it's a zip file now the install on this is just like the install that you would do for sound modem or for uh easy term it doesn't have an installer what it wants you to do is just to take this and extract it to your local drive so that's what I'm going to do I am just going to select to extract it to my C colon my C drive at the root and to the VAR AC underscore V underscore 6.13 directory I'm going to go ahead and extract it when it's all done there I am now uh what I need to do now is this VAR AC file right there with the two little uh oh uh text clouds in it I'm just gonna right hand Mouse click that and I am going to tell it to create a shortcut so there's my shortcut I'm going to drag the shortcut over to my desktop it's just going to move it there and I'm probably just going to rename it like so just of our AC all right you know that's all it takes to get that set up now I'm going to go ahead I'm going to close all this and I'm going to drag this over to uh my other system or my other side the real uh side of my primary window well okay we're ready to get started on this I'm going to go ahead and double click on the link that I made and this is going to launch the initial VAR AC setup so all right tells me my call signs missing so let me get that info in so I want to fill this page out first put in my call site now they have what are called complex call signs here and I think what you really need to do is read about them for what I am going to use this for with HF I don't need a complex call sign but you may want to do that in order to track different things that are going on for your logging okay I need to put in my qth and uh there I am my name my locator and this is going to be the six digit version of the maidenhead locator uh my rig I'm running ftdx 3000 for my HF uh my power I'm going to just say around 50 Watts my antenna is going to be an FTD oh excuse me no my antenna is going to be a Home Grown uh dipole and there we go now what is it telling me well yes I've changed perimeters it wants to restart so it's going to restart the program and hey wow it automatically found my Vara installation why because it was in the default directory for Vara it says I have no uh rig frequency definitions anything like that so I am going to go ahead and I need to configure that so let's make this a little bit bigger so it's kind of workable here right let me get a little taller and we're gonna go here to settings and we're going to go ahead and we're gonna we're gonna go to rig control under rig control we're gonna make some modifications right so I want to tell it that I have a f t DX 3000 and it's listed so that's great now I'm also going to say that my frequency controls the same radio when I select it on the cat control it found it and placed it in the cap control for frequency control right so the push to talk now and the frequency control are the same um additional changes well my radio's not on com5 no it's on com 14 so I have to specify what com Port it's on and I've got good videos on figuring that out so uh just uh search my uh videos uh and I'm running 38 4 or 38 400 baud not everybody does that the spot the default here is 4 800. um I use this because I use it with a lot of different programs and this seems to work the best for me my DTR and my RTS are both set to low all right so I could go in hours of explanation of all that what all that means but for now we're just not going to worry about it I happen to know that my rig control settings are set up for that so I'm going to leave that in there uh and I'm going to do a test now you're not going to get to see the result I'm going to have to stare at my radio and hit push to talk to see if my radio keys so it keyed so I want to turn it off it unkeyed great we're there I've got that configured a couple things over here on frequency control I'm probably going to want to set to read the frequency every two minutes or two seconds and that way it's going to reset itself to the right frequency if I change the frequency over on the radio I'll be able to read it inside the program do I want to set the frequency up on Startup to the last frequency and I'm going to say no I don't I don't want it to mess with that portion of the radio I really all I want to do is just to verify that I'm on the right frequency I want to change the frequency when I change the frequency in the program but I don't want to automatically do anything okay that's just me all that said this whole section here is about done um we're going to talk about varmao we're going to talk about broadcast we're going to talk about um oh beaconing all sorts of other stuff I'm not going to go into great detail but for my personal preferences I am going to turn off allow parking you want to know what a loud parking is you want to know what relay notification is there's question marks right here check it out see what it means okay for me allow parkings means that I would accept third-party emails and to deliver them later I don't want to do that I don't want to I really am not going to run this unattended I'm always going to be in front of it so again why would I want to make this like a a mail server it's not and by the way to be clear this does not have an internet connection this is not going to relay email or send email out to the internet like winlink does two completely different concepts okay so this is more along the sides of stuff that you can do if if you could combine FL Digi and pack it and ft8 this would probably be what you come up with so and we'll talk about those features after we get through this configuration all right and so I just need to verify that my adef file is going to be in the right location and that's the directory that we unzipped everything into uh I'm not going to send a log to uh anybody and my sub mode in this particular case is going to be Vara HF so I'm all set to go with that for psk reporter uh I can upload everything I hear I can send reports I'm just going to leave that alone for now okay I can self-report I'll leave that alone as well Vara modem configuration well guess what I am going to be using Vara HF and these are the ports that I'm listening on bar a monitor path and that is optional and you would set this up to be a monitor and this read through this because it tells you how to do it okay and you're going to need to basically take your Vara HF directory of course it's C colon backslash Vara typically you're going to take that directory you're going to duplicate it and name the directory something else in my case it's set to uh oh I think it's set to Vara Mon and you're going to put that there and I think mine is on Port 3250 I don't know but if I copy it and I set the port and everything in there to a fresh new directory and I launch it it is going to communicate with it and I'm going to be set to go it's going to change all the configuration when it launches on my current VAR configuration everything should work it's kind of neat to be on the scope of what I want to go through now but maybe in a future video we'll talk more about that here's your qso configuration file transfer all this stuff the DX I I would probably leave all the stuff to defaults until you read about it and figure out what it all is so the real question uh oh and one real important thing though there's a skip CQ slot selector you want to make sure that's unchecked and in just a minute we're going to go over all these different fun things okay and I'm going to go ahead and say save you know what and I'm already starting to get beacons and I'm already starting to get cqs over here so all right let's talk about this well okay so let's start talking about some of the unique things that far AC actually brings to the table um first off above all others I actually believe that beaconing is a big deal we do beaconing all the time with stuff like whisper and other software this allows us to do beaconing with Vara uh and the software also allows us to do pings against beacons um and again um you know that is not a lot more than just a exchange but it works really well and it kind of gives you an idea if you do enough of these uh beacons and then do back pings the other people do back pings to your beacon you begin to see what your propagation is over on psk uh Maps right so I kind of like that that and you can set it up to Beacon and hey it'll leave you alone until you get somebody that wants to talk to you and then it'll give you an audible notice and you can pop on and do a qso or do a uh yeah qso with them right I think that's pretty cool you can also send broadcasts so let's say that you're having trouble connecting to somebody you can actually tell us a broadcast out there just to say hey sorry I'm not able to copy you or whatever also you can send a broadcast out just in general talking about current conditions or what's going on broadcast could be a really big deal in mcomp so that's something that we should think about too imagine being able to send a broadcast out to all of your uh mcom people for Aries or races or whatever to give them a heads up of something that may be coming up or something that may be going on so there's a that's a big win now calling qso or excuse me calling CQ that's a pretty big deal too right uh you can actually have a cuso and guess what you're it will automatically exchange all of your information in order to have enough to put in a log but you also have the opportunity to chat and it actually has canned messages just like the uh you know the macros that are inside FL Digi um all these things are really cool you can send V mail which is kind of like Vara mail which let's say that you wanna you your friend or whatever isn't on you can send a email and you can let it sit there and if that friend comes up and sends out a beacon it will ask the friend if he wants to download a pending message It'll ask you if you're sitting next to the machine if you want to send it and you can do that you can make that connection and do it okay these are cool features what about sending files well there's no file size restriction although I mean let's be honest if you're going to send a file on HF you probably want to make sure it's a pretty small file you could separately negotiate a connection on Vara FM locally on two meters and say let's go over this frequency and I'll send you a big file so there's lots of neat things that they're putting together here and they all seem to work pretty well the last thing we should probably touch on is slots and I'm going to jump on and change my shot a little bit so we can talk about slots all right so let's talk about slots so the easiest way for me to show you slots is to go ahead and pretend I'm going to send a CQ maybe we'll even send a CQ so if I go call CQ this box is going to pop up I'm going to turn the audio up a little bit on my radio so you can hear it all right now you have five slots that are under the calling frequency you have five slots that are over the calling frequency so yeah they say 1 and 11 is preferred I can use the slot sniffer I'm over on one let's see if anybody's over on one waiting for a call so what this does is you need to kind of look up in the far Corner I've actually changed my frequency to this to that slot I don't hear any digital so this this doesn't look busy to me I can also do the same thing with slot 11. I click on slot 11 and I can do the sniffer ah hear that I heard somebody on slot 11. all right what if I go down here to SL let's go to slot three let's see if anybody's down here all right I'm gonna call CQ and in the CQ it's going to say if you want to connect to me connect to slots three so here we go I'm calling CQ foreign CQ if you watch this over here it's going to qsy to that slot huh I might have just got somebody looks like I do all right telling me that I have an incoming request but we still don't know who it is and all the information is going to be down in this window or the actual what's going on which is kind of cool we're still negotiating that connection now if I had a minor screen up I could see a little bit more so uh yeah there we go ah I'm connected to Victor Echo 7 November Hotel whiskey so I got somebody in Canada now what's going to happen without me doing anything here it's going to exchange all of our information so I am basically now uh responding back saying hey it's me he should he or she should respond back with a basically a signal report which there he is he's responded back I am an R minus zero five okay is my signal report now I should be responding back to him with a signal report to him and that signal report is coming back uh as let's see I'm sending an R16 R minus 16. and it is actually confirming that he's getting it there we go so we got all that hi Randall good to connect with you you notice this is this is free hand uh this finds you well today all right so I've given me I've sent my information to him I have not received his yet so what if he doesn't send me his information what can I do then well I can actually request it but let's see I'm sending my stuff right now when I'm actually sending is what I just texted right and this this reminds me so much of IRC it's it's funny now I can also right here I can ask for his info but let's see what he's sending all right he's sending something there we go all right he is sending me his data now so this actually should fill in my log information here there we go Asian British Columbia Canada which is amazing right he didn't stuff his name in there but I can put it in here Randall and uh he's about to get there he gave me his location all right I have enough information now that I could actually make a log entry second contact I'm in second contact wow so that's how fresh and new this is you know it's you can tell I'm getting a little excited here because this is fun and I'm saying goodbye so that's some of the neat stuff you can do now he's typing I'm gonna miss his last uh his last statement here which is fine this sentient disconnect in a minute but you can see the enjoyment in this um or maybe not this might not be your thing but I'm sure having fun doing it so I've disconnected and what should happen here is it should allow me to qsy back so I'm going to qsy back to the main frequency this stuff is amazing and I keep learning new stuff with it now the FM side obviously you don't need those slots there are only 750 Hertz away from each other they're big enough that you're not interfering with the other side but they're still uh they're not going to work in an FM environment so you need to shut those off so I'm going to really quickly after this thing eventually beacons because it's actually waiting for the frequency to open up for me to be able to be him and that's why it says next Beacon soon well it still hasn't Beacon so all right let's send a broadcast all right and I'm going to send a broadcast to all actually I'm going to send this broadcast to uh let's see W6 r h who is our uh District uh emergency coordinator I'm going to say hi Rob and I'm just going to do a broadcast and close oh it sent the beacon awesome so there the beacon went now let's see if my broadcast goes there we go they're my broadcast went all right so you can see how many different and cool things that you can do with this all right yes is it an enormous time waster well maybe maybe but let's let's do something further I'm going to close this and let's take a look at far uh at VAR AC in FM mode all right so I'm hoping what you notice out there is I now have a VAR AC Dash FM icon here so there's a bunch of different ways that you can set up for FM and HF is two different things I chose to set them up as completely different instances which means that I have completely different directories for them let's take a quick glance at that I don't want to harp on it but you can take any of these directories and duplicate them so what you'll see is there is VAR AC and here is VAR AC FM and the only thing that I did was I duplicated the VAR AC directory and then I launched it and changed the configuration to a point towards my VHF radio which it actually really isn't doing so it's it's it's kind of a strange thing FM is a much different protocol um obviously there's certain things you don't want to do doing a shift of signal is not where you want to be with this you really don't you don't necessarily want to have a connection go over 750 Hertz because it doesn't do you any good if m is not sideband it captures that entire 22.5 kilohertz width so you don't want to do that let's go ahead and launch the VAR acfm setup that I have and it's going to automatically it's programmed to automatically launch Vara FM and it's going to Grumble here because I have not set up rig control so the first thing I need to do is I need to tell it that I'm going to be on 145.030 that's going to be the FM frequency and it's telling me I have to change the rig to that yes absolutely my okay FM transmitter is set to 145.030 right now so that's all set and working some of the configuration settings that you have to look at here is under rig control I actually am doing my push to talk through cat control so I still have to configure push to talk but I'm not going to let it change the frequency because we're doing this on channelized frequencies these are frequencies that we've set channels on locally in our area so I don't want to confuse that and of course I also want to make sure that I'm connecting to uh you know the Vara FM and I have a specific Vara FM that I've copied over that I'm using for VAR AC so again this is going to be something you're probably going to want to play with and you're probably going to want to play with it a lot real important though see the pull down up here I have now set to Vara FM and it automatically puts a little check here to skip CQ slot selector because you don't want to change slots so you need to turn that off and also I turn off all the psk reporters stuff because you're not on HF anyway with all that said if I want to now I could actually just say send a beacon and it just transmitted a beacon on FM that I'm out here on two meters so the only other thing now that you understand how this changes or varies you should be able to play with this I mean you can turn around and call CQ which I'm doing right now but one thing I did have to do to get the frequency to work properly on this I had to go into that configuration and that's one of the other reasons I have a completely separate configuration here for this on my system go into VAR acfm and I had to edit the VAR AC underscore frequencies.com list and I just tell it to open with Notepad and I had to add all the VHF uh two meter frequencies that we would use typically for communications within my regional area but once I did that I was able to do the pull down and everything else and by turning the slots off I'm going to sit here and listen directly and wait for that connection from somebody else anyway there was VAR AC running Vara FM matter of fact you just watch VAR AC in action um my final words vary she is fun uh it works really well on HF I think the exchanges are a little clunky uh they certainly are in my mind slower than when I uh use like PS psk 31 or ready the keyboard interaction is clunky because remember you have to type your entire message and before you send it and then it has to be able to send across Vara in the HF mode and while that happens you're still waiting for them to type back so there is quite a bit of time between the exchanges where at least with iridian um psk 31 it's a even exchange uh you can see the person typing which makes you know that he's there you're still connected um secondly I think that uh there's going to be some real issues with uh VAR AC and mcom because the majority of income use turns out to be on FM and the FM system doesn't really lean itself towards tacticals it will not allow you to use ssids because they hide them inside their sock the exchanges to make their software work and there's no ability to use tacticals in any manner shape or form and also be able to identify with the actual call sign of the station so um there's a lot of stuff that really needs to get straightened up before we can do that anyway I'm going to continue to play with it um I'm hoping I get some information out of the developers regarding some of the mcom issues that I'm seeing it is fun and I recommend you play with it and maybe just the clunkiness that I feel is because I'm so used to using Riddim psk 31 that I'm just not taking the time or utilizing the patients to operate in the way it's designed comments what you think after you get it set up anyway with that hey thanks for joining me I had a good time making this video although it was one of my tougher ones and uh I have to tell you it really is great being up here so do me a favor will ya click on the Subscribe button and hey any comments or questions in a video again make them down below in the video oh and don't forget click that notification icon all right enough sales this is Stu ag6ag hope to hear you out there on the air 73 everybody

Sen. Lindsey Graham dismisses Mueller convictions: Lying to the FBI is not a 'big event'
Senator Lindsey Graham a military lawyer dismisses Mueller convictions lying to the FBI is not a big event Senator Lindsey Graham RSC an Air Force jag officer on Sunday defended President Donald Trump by saying that lying to the FBI is not a big event during an interview on Face the Nation host John Dickerson asked Graham to react to the news that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort has agreed to cooperate with Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation I don't know yet Graham were replied I know that from the Judiciary Committee point of view we found no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians I think Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr said from the Intel point of view that he has seen no evidence of collusion Graham argued that Mueller should be allowed to complete his investigation but the South Carolina senator also said that he was disappointed that the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails had been closed I'm very disappointed no Democrats seems to be worried about the corruption at the Department of Justice and the FBI regarding the Clinton email investigation early stages of the Russian investigation Graham complained Dickerson asked Graham to grade Mueller based on his record of indictments please in guilty verdicts in the Russia investigation but Graham suggested the guilty pleas for lying to the FBI do not carry the same weight as other convictions you got to look at the substance of what people pled to the military lawyer opined some people pled to lying to the FBI like George papadopolis got two weeks in jail I don't see that as a big event Graham added Manafort could have a lot of stuff where he could just have stuff around financial transactions I don't know yet you don't look at the numbers according to the senator Mueller's investigation is much like ken starr's investigation of former President Bill Clinton I think it's proceeding in a way that these things start with a land deal and wind up with a blue dress Graham quipped please don't forget to like and support our channel by press subscribe button thanks for watching

Episode 13: Internment Nightmare
broadcasting from the far side of Enceladus beaming into the speed of light across the vast chasms of space streaming directly into your brain you're listening to the Spartacus League I am Phelan and joining us today are Attica and Ino so get ready and strap in because it's been a while I've had some allergy issues but this week we are back with a vengeance to begin I have a great clip that many of you may have seen but not might not exactly know the context here and we wanted to unpack that story for you so tonight we're gonna start with the clip that took anarchist and communist twitter by storm alright I don't got along I'm a dad so I got a kid take care of what's up bootlickers I haven't seen y'all since the camp out I got something to say all right tire this [ __ ] [ __ ] I'm a father I'm a veteran and I'm anarchists those are three people you don't want piss off all right I'm tired of chill and get attacked in the streets tired of them sleep in the [ __ ] streets that I swore to defend get attacked by the state y'all you close your [ __ ] peeps and start moving your feet and get [ __ ] done take resources and put them in the hands of the people who need them alright seriously the [ __ ] is wrong with y'all what the [ __ ] y'all they justify letting people die in the streets with your policies in your laws and legislation how do you justify that killing people I forgive my life people from all forms of oppression eventually the shit's going to stop because when I returned we won't make excuses for the terror marks our next speaker is Lauren Lauren Tozzi followed by Rachel Ludwick so I have to wonder if Lauren that was just as energized a hard act to follow the vitriol the invective the fire in fury I'm pretty sure that every single member of our community has felt that at some point and I would suspect that most of us feel that most of everyday were alive and the man got to go up there in front of elected officials in front of a crowd of his peers and voice those concerns in exactly the tone that all of us would love to use on our boss not elected officials and everybody that we consider a bootlickers and that is just a beautiful thing one thing and I don't know if either of you noticed for the officials the most important part of that was there are children there and so the decorum had to be maintained that was their worry not the homeless people in the streets it's sad though because this like this happens a lot but there are plenty would literally every every law that has to be passed by a state assembly City Council etc etc has to have an open comment section rarely is it such a theatrical thing where they're sitting in the literal legislative room like as my tie my brief period as a liberal thinking that going to these open comment what Evers made a difference talking to your representative whatever this uh thing is is that this is so rare right although who knows if in the next months there won't be like one of these kind of things every day right but for every laws passed there's an open comment section it's not the first law that's passed that is [ __ ] people over like the those passed daily and so I guess maybe it's because this was such a the actual thing like they were in the main you know legislative city council room and it was a law that was very publicized this tax that was gonna go to words hoping homes people that then got repealed because the corporation's want it it just kind of saddens me that it's so rare it's actually what I wanted to go over because a lot of people may have seen this clip but not know exactly what it was in in regards to so basically what's going on here is that the City Council of Seattle voted down a head tax which was a tax that was on businesses per employee and it was only the large businesses that really had to pay it Amazon Starbucks and a few others and so a bunch of businesses got together Amazon and Starbucks and a company called Vulcan contributed $25,000 each towards stopping this thing out and running campaigns to basically propagandize against this particular tab and the thing was the tax itself was originally a five hundred dollar head tax it would have brought into city about twenty million dollars and they were able to negotiate it down to two 75 and then Amazon said well you know that's okay but you know we are working on construction on this building we could just stop if you don't fully revoke it it's really interesting because this is a case where amazon with their block 18 office tower I believe they literally leveraged that against the city they said well you you can play ball or we can move somewhere else they said they had halted progress on its construction and that progress on the construction the the resuming of that construction was pending the outcome of their vote and that's when they compromised dropped it down to two hundred and seventy five dollars per employee and that's and reading the the the press statements from Starbucks in particular talking about no tax on jobs campaign going through and having the the head tax killed it's really interesting to see this pattern repeating itself because looking back historically it seems like plutocrats and organizations that employ and are headed by plutocrats they always seem to think that being taxed and having their tax dollars utilized for social reform programs and such is an inherently inferior solution to whatever solution they have Starbucks Vulcan and Amazon have cooked up their own plan that they say goes along with the guidelines that is interesting that's what they always say is like oh we could do a better in the private sector but every time we let the private sector do something more than not it turns out to just not work whether it's school choice whether it's roads it doesn't really matter usually when something's held over to the private sector it gets crappier and it gets more expensive over time it may start out cheap but they continually ask more and more money and cut back on services that they deliver and you can see the logic from their perspective they say well we're a business we know how to save money and we'll do it more cheaply they say we're a business and this would be good optics for us you know we want people to know that we care about them more than the contents that their wallet and then they say we know what we're doing we've taken part in these social reform programs remember our remember our LGBT programs those were great those genuinely helps people and we can do this while also turning a buck and therefore funding ourselves rather than asking somebody for a handout like the government does paying taxes in charity or two different things and you can do both and if you do charity then you can get tax breaks so it's it's not mutually exclusive here and these people make enough money where they can do both but one thing I did I did want to add on to this story here before we move on to our next topic here there's is one thing though that the a good anarchist I did say to the City Council that basically like if if they're refusing to do it and we got to do something so maybe we do need to get out on the streets and procure solutions for homeless people things like creating them tiny homes that the City of Seattle doesn't want to do it because that's what they actually had planned for them and they're not even gonna have that and that's shown to be really effective in mitigating the problem even more so than shelters which are actually a more expensive solution really gives the show that they're not as far as homelessness goes they're not really interested in fixing the problem is so much simply because homelessness is there as a tool to make the working-class afraid of no longer working one thing I kind of wanted to mention about it in terms of how he went up there and how he expressed himself is he was blunt he was concise he was to the point but he straight-up said I am an anarchist I am a veteran you would think with the social dynamics of America that the two are diametrically opposed and I really think that that kind of exposure for our movement is very important he's saying we are out there we are numerous we will be heard there are solutions that we want to implement you are failing to do so and there are enough of us to collectively express our disagreement with your failure to implement those systems this is not a matter that will go away this is not a matter that will be swept under the rug we are here we are watching we are listening and we will be part of this that's actually a great point to drive home here is the fact that yeah he was a veteran and he did say that and that kind of does go to show that this movement is growing and it is hitting normal people it's it's getting the normies if you like the 4chan parlance notice how like doll right was completely quiet about that like he wasn't some skinny like purple haired twink that they could easily ride off as oh and it's just one of those college leftists like here he was in his [ __ ] army in a forum telling them how it is and they just they're just silent well of course because that would counter their narrative that's another thing why I'd I'm not scared of their little like militia [ __ ] because like they psych themselves into thinking all those leftists are gonna be you know cannon fodder they're all like skinny college twins who like fly Soviet flags I'm oh they're living off of like daddy's money and then if things come to things they're gonna find themselves not up against college twinks not that those college strains can't [ __ ] do any damage like have you ever seen two gay guys fight at a bar is it gets freakin brutal they're not just gonna be up against that they're gonna be up against anarchist dad who's fighting for his kids future and they're gonna have psych themselves out into facing like this ridiculous honestly think that's why they lost that Charlotte smell so bad they cite themselves into thinking that their enemy is something someone that their enemy is them well that's actually one of my personally favorite things to do it's it's a little bit it's a little bit problematic I will admit but one of my favorite things to do when I'm you know on talking guns with somebody or I'm showing off my my my weapons and everything we're talking about the statistics and the art and the science behind gun fighting in warfare and I'm I'm a fairly knowledgeable person people pick up on that pretty quickly and some people are very mildly intimidated by it then they then they'll start talking politics because you cannot hot guns without talking politics anymore and my exact quote nearly every time is yeah I'm one of those uh SJW leftist cucks you've heard about and uh I will not be moved and the confusion that alights on their face like a moth to a flame is just this is problematic but it is the most gratifying thing oh yeah because it counters their narrative it's not what they expect ice and Border Patrol it's it's it's lit up like crazy this week before we go into the big stuff here I did want to go over a couple I don't like to call them smaller stories but they they kind of like fill in the narrative of everything that's behind this and one of the things that I did want to point out is just how out of control US Customs and Border Protection is right now people are genuinely afraid of these people US citizens because there's so little accountability in what they do and task and purpose ran an article where a u.s. veteran was intimidated by a Border Patrol agent he didn't do anything wrong he didn't violate any rules and the Border Patrol agent knew this because they were watching him the entire time basically he was just on a ride in Vermont he reached the the border obelisk post he did not cross it he stopped before he got got close to it he turned his vehicle around and the Border Patrol agent got out of their vehicle approached the person began yelling accusing them of breaking the law of illegal entry this was a guy that he did border patrol in Iraq and he said that he felt he felt like he was in danger and being unlawfully intimidated if I if I remember the story correctly he and his wife were on vacation at the time and he noticed this white SUV they blocked his path and accosted he and his wife with weapons drawn and insinuations are not insinuations flat-out accusations that they were illegally crossing the border the first agent to make Kanta I began by yelling at them and telling them that they had them on video crossing the border which was flatly a lie as they had not done so at all and he was so spooked by this as the second agent was arriving again with their weapon out he wrote his sister's phone number on his wife's arm in case they got separated and she had to call for bail and he got on Facebook and put up a status on Facebook and on Twitter about what was going on with them in case they are they disappeared because he noted when he was telling reporters about this that they were out in the middle of nowhere and if something regrettable happens it's the Border Patrol's words against theirs there were no real witnesses out there he was terrified this is a man who served overseas in a warzone as checkpoint security and he was terrified by the law-enforcement agency at our borders that says something deeply distressing about the state of our policing to top that off a few days later after this story came out we have the story of the Native American who just get flat out ran over by a Border Patrol because he whipped out his phone and was recording them on Native American grounds which I'm guessing that maybe they just didn't have the right to be there but they ran him over did not stop they actually turned their lights on and sped away because they know that they screwed up yeah the gentleman in question uh Barlow Emmis he was at his parents house on the on the reservation which is all mind you just on the Mexico border there and he saw a border patrol vehicle kind of sulking around the the area and you know being the situation with Border Patrol how it is he he decided to draw out his his cell phone camera and record them he said immediately as soon as he did so they accelerated toward him and actually swerved in order to hit him which just by watching the video you can tell is not a lie that was they elected to hit him I I suspect they panicked but after they hit him they didn't they didn't stop they didn't turn around that it even slow they hit their sirens and sped out of the area but just another example here of just how crazy the situation here is with ice is that there was another guy Pablo Villavicencio he was a pizza delivery man he delivered a pizza to an army base for Hamilton in Brooklyn and it sounds like he'd done this multiple times before and had no problem with it but for whatever reason the guard that particular day asked for his ID he produced a city-based ID the guard said that that would not be official for that purpose because apparently anybody can get a New York City ID was the accusation there he demanded to see like a New York State ID or some other form and he couldn't produce it so they claimed that he signed a document stating that he okayed a background check and when the background check came through it turned out that he had an ice warrant from 2011 however he had been married to a woman since then and had a right to be in the United States being that he was married to a u.s. citizen and had kids as well so here's a working-class guy that just gets arrested for doing his job but there are a couple of things interesting things about this case in particular that strike me firstly the the fact of a lot of the restaurants in Brooklyn basically I wouldn't say boycotting but refusing to deliver to the base anymore because they're scared of their people getting snatched up and in a couple of statements just as a show of working-class solidarity which is genuinely inspiring and aside from that in my experience being on government property military bases police stations and the like if you're in a secured area and they catch you there or if you try to gain access to a secured area and you're stopped by a checkpoint or a guard they ask you for your ID and your reason for being there if you don't have sufficient identification and a reasonable purpose for being there or trying to gain access to there they simply escort you off of the property again that might just be my white privilege speaking but in my experience every single time that you're found wanting they simply compel you to leap exactly it seems like it was an overreach of power because they could have just said well that's not an official ID for this purposes just give me the boxes I'll sign for it and I'll call the guy up to pick up his meal thank you very much and go home they didn't have to run any background checks or anything like that they didn't have to ask him whether or not he was going to be there that or whether or not he had the right to be there that's none of their business even whether he is or is not a US citizen unless they find some suspicions to him having some motivation to do harm to the base and that ties in to another thing that is somewhat concerning about the case according to statements from other restaurant owners and delivery personnel in the area who frequently delivered to that base this is the only notable incident where this has happened nobody else previous to this claims to have had any kind of problem like this and that it actually includes like a Cuban deli as well so so maybe there was a change in protocol but why wouldn't they announce that maybe the guy just wasn't doing his job before but the odds of every other gate guard not doing their job and this guy just going above and beyond and earning his paycheck the odds against that are staggering and the delivery man in question Pevensie oh I believe he stated that he thinks that that particular guard had something against him in particular which you know that that raises even more questions it's unequal enforcement either way big story that of course happened this week and it's actually kind of two of twofold and it's it's both related the first one was president Trump's administration wants to open up open air tent cities I guess you could call them concentration camps at this point well that's why not detainment facilities to hold between 1,000 and 5,000 children because they're running out of room in their current facilities so the news tent city that they're looking to build they're wanting to do it on your Fort Bliss at Dyess Air Force Base or Goodfellow Air Force Base and of course the reasoning right now is that there are eleven thousand two hundred children in over a hundred so-called shelters if you will and those shelters are on average are filled to ninety five percent capacity right now another fun thing to mention is this this administration well they didn't particularly name drop Joe Arpaio many of us might remember a year or so ago the incredible debacle with Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his tent cities and the absolutely unacceptable conditions have said tent cities it's very easy to look at this new idea and stop wondering where it came from one thing I will really congratulate liberals on and liberal media on is that they are actually using the term camps like they're actually using the term concentration camps and that is exactly what you need to call them another thing I want to know is like why are we unable to talk about the fact these of existed since 2014 like they haven't been filled to the brim since 2014 I'm like the first that they started popping up in 2014 under Obama that's a great point there why are we not allowed to talk about what happened under Obama and I think the answer there is obvious given the bias in the media the media is of course a very partisan industry if even if they don't like to pretend they're not coming at it with this consciousness like we're looking at it they're not looking at it step back away from Republican and Democrat looking at it from a socialist view if you will they're looking at this as being a Republican versus Democrat thing and because it ramped up under Trump Trump has to be the problem well the thing is Obama is our precious good boy president who promised change and liver and you know he's a liberal so he's part of hashtag too resistance I really want to know how many people Hillary Clinton would have put in the camps like I want to know how many people would have excused her for doing so would have found a reason for saying oh it's it's actually a good thing because she's protecting Americans keeping us safe and making sure that our jobs stay safe and secure as well well they probably would have been nicer ritzy or camps anyway because George Soros would have been funding them geez that's depressing yeah that's that's a take you have actually a point here when it comes to the funding on the the issue it has been more expensive for the government to separate out these kids from their families and it's admitted that that's so and every time the government tries to excuse this they always point the finger at the Democrats and say well oh it's because of laws they passed and everything when it turns out that's not the case that's not what's on the books and the Trump administration is doing this both as a deterrent and as a message yes they're using children in concentration camps as political leverage on the inside on the American side of things they're trying to make a point with this it is explicitly more expensive they have no problem admitting that and that very effectively underlines the purpose behind all of this you know the funny thing about that is despite the fact that it is more expensive you don't hear the fiscal conservatives coming out denouncing this which really tells you where their values really lie no no because you know it would be even more expensive than expensively putting them an expensive concentration camps letting them come in here and take our jobs letting them come in here and bring in crime and drugs and ms-13 and be rapists that's the most expensive solution not just financially for our tax funded police system but also in a human way can the human cost of letting these immigrants come in here may be infiltrated by terrorists and bring their weapons in their crime in their drugs and their gangs you have any idea how hard ms-13 has hit the social fabric of this country he's making America great again in the fact it's gonna cost a little bit more than housing all of them together so they can sit next to one another and the concentration camps and plot you know what though and that's exactly the the the reason that they're gonna give you they're gonna bring out these false statistics about ms-13 when the fact is is that there's only about 3,000 to maybe 5,000 upper estimate of ms-13 members in the United States active right now oh that is to say that even by our most generous estimates there are fewer active members of ms-13 many of whom I imagine don't engage in aggressive being like activities whatever those may be there are fewer active ms-13 members in the US right now then there are little children in actual concentration camps yes and that's just the children in the midst of all this Senator Jeff Merkley actually tried to visit one of these detention facilities even though he was a senator and he has an entourage you know showing off who he is and what his credentials are they just flat-out refused him and turned him around they actually they called the cops on him so that the cops could show up and I guess intimidate him push him around a bit as well he had a list of questions written down what didn't he yes he did he had like a a 19 question a letter that he actually drafted up after visiting the facility that DHS actually didn't respond to instead what DHS did is they turned the entire situation about his visit around and said that he was the problem so basically what DHS did was they released a report saying how dare you how dare you ask questions about these children how dare you demand to see it because this is a violation of these kids privacy do you understand what you're doing here you are putting these kids at risk you're wanting to make a show of their lives for political gain that's literally what the White House did and then the top top it all off they also added in a dash of accusing him of illegal ism because it would have violated laws had they let him in good heavens I read that and this is this is not a new thing for me since this administration I have become accustomed to reading things written by the actual government that are that level of just confusing filth and I was a little bit blown back even given those circumstances because Jeff you want to come in and exploit these children for for political gain or are you some kind of are you some kind of sicko it just wants to come in here and look at all of this you disgust me like wow really do you think that this will be like the moment like the catalyzing moment for liberals but they have to do something more than phone calls I would hope so at least a few because I'll tell you what if I was a liberal up till now this would be swinging me pretty hard left like their camps and there's no way they can obfuscate their camps no matter what word they use their camps and they're going to build even more obvious tent camps there's no off you skating the parallel there's no doing the liberal wish you watch well it's not as bad as or it's not to that point yet or we still have time can somebody from a year a year they've wasted making phone calls a year they've leased did writing letters a year they've wasted well hon better late than never there was some good that came of a merkel not being allowed in there is a they caved and a cadre of reporters descended upon the facility and who bore the image and the writings were distressing there are mules of Trump everywhere I guess with utterly nonsensical quotes at sometimes in losing a battle you find a way to win the war what sense does that make in this context is that supposed to inspire these kids it's written in English to the right of his head which you know it's written in Spanish to the left of his head and you you wonder like how are these kids gonna take that coming in here being dragged away from everything they know and love they see the guy who's pretty much directly responsible for it and they see this quote about losing a battle in winning a war like what effect is that going to have on them I will tell you I was in the same shoes and I saw that quote on the wall next to the guy that this is causing this is the guy that's causing this misery the war that I would be fighting would be against that guy they that would have radicalized me to the honestly to the point of violence I mean just seeing the conditions within this facility it's basically white sterile cubicles because it's in an old Walmart so they partitioned it off into like these cubicles put beds in there put play areas in and stuff like that but everything is very sterile it's it's white washed like literally like everything is like blank it's very depressing to look at well these kids evidently get two hours a day to themselves one hour to go out and play with one another and one hour I think Watchmen wanna was what they were doing when these reporters came through and even then even looking at these circumstances and thinking well at least there are no smoking chimneys and weird showers is Harry Leslie Smith this fella off tweeted I would warn journalists who are visiting some of these migrant camps for children in America that show migrant kids playing that the Nazis also built the reason shot to show the world press and the Red Cross how well Jews were treated in concentration camps now this this has me worried because who knows what they were doing before Merkley was there like they may have anticipated the fact that reporters were going to come in and they were like okay so we need to clean this place up as much as possible whitewash it down we let the reporters in we show them that nothing's going on that there's no abuses anything like that and he did a bad job that then well I mean it's exactly like when you're when your mom tries to come into your room to see how you're doing you're like no no don't come in don't come in you lock the door you hide the xl4 under your bed and you you kick the the two gallon drum of bad dragon come lube under the table and then your mom asks your sister to come in to see how you're dealing and your sister goes in there and goes well they're still weird but you know everything seems okay that's exactly that kind of situations just give me some time to put the ovens in the back and get them behind a partition and kids kids play look happy look good there was actually a senator that was able to interview some the immigrant women that were being held that had their kids ripped from them and she'd said that a third of the women that she had interviewed out of 170 lost their children one of them even told them that when the process was happening that she could hear her kid in the next room like screaming that shows you the kind of inhumanity and horror that these people are willing to go to that is haunting and it's genuinely hard to process reading something like that reading about a woman hearing her child screaming in the next room that's some young adult dystopian world novel kind of thing to read but it's here it's happening right now we are in the bad time line yeah and I think like Atticus said it's definitely time that liberals wake up to this kind of stuff because if they don't it's not going to be the immigrants that are going to be put in the camps eventually this scope is going to increase this is this is a trial run like this is this eerily reminds me a little bit of the Rex 84 program under Reagan that was proposed or like even the conspiracy theory of the the FEMA camps that they were going to activate them for concentration camps after 9:11 that theory that was floating around this all too eerily has too much parallels to this under an administration that has shown time and time again that it cannot be trusted with these people in power can we really entrust them knowing that they're operating these kind of things come 2020 that they're gonna do the right thing well that is a good point there is there is a considerable amount of evidence for things like this having been proposed in the relatively recent past of our country and it's an incontrovertible fact that this all was going on before Trump this is something a long time coming and as much as it's refreshing to see the media picking up on this and new stories about it cycling is much as it's good to see people realizing this and getting mad getting radical it is serious about trying to fix it it's really unsettling to see how far this has come before people start doing anything about it and there's not even a guarantee that anything large-scale is going to be done about this any time soon this could escalate into a full-blown Holocaust styled genocide of migrants and their children on our soil this could very well become Nazi Germany 2.0 and the thought of that is so profoundly disquieting that people are just completely unable to to reconcile it or or try to deal with it or come to terms with it everyone's going look it's not gonna get that bad for America we won't let it get that bad eye the moment Trump won I was prepared I knew that that's what this was gonna be like everyone else is just kidding themselves and it's the most painful thing about this is hasn't even been watching Trump do Trump's [ __ ] it's been watching it's been waiting for the rest of the [ __ ] world to stop trying to barter with themselves oh it's not gonna be that bad or oh well let Trump do this but not this and he'll be happy and that's been the most painful part not even everything that's Trump's doing but the waiting for liberals honestly just waiting for liberals because you can't get them out of the way because they won't get out of the way they just [ __ ] say you're as bad as Trump and call you a Russian bot and [ __ ] kicked you under the rug and make it go away so you can't you can't get past them you just have to wait wait for them to let so much damage be caused and then they don't know what to do and then you can actually step in as a leftist and get something done hopefully dear God by the way I want to skip ahead not to not to our next story but the one after that because it kind of connects into everything that I said and I'm surprised I actually didn't realize this earlier Department of Homeland Security is building a biometric database that will interact and connect with their existing databases mining information for communications that they already have it's called the Homeland advanced recognition technology or heart and it's going to be the biggest biometric database ever created at least in the United States and this is basically what China is trying to build right now it's going to have fingerprint DNA facial scans data on tattoos and scars the system will be able to scan social media accounts to discern behavior based off of things like posts like comments common interests between people and also try to tie in like relationships based off of that so it'll assume that you associate with so-and-so because of set activity then to top it all off of course it's it's going to be used by all the three-letter agencies that's DHS ice FBI to track people eventually in real time that's what it's why they want to do you're looking at a future where police departments three-letter agencies etc will be able to put on some glasses and scan a crowd just like they're able to do in China right now and say that person's got a warrant we got to get them this person doesn't belong in the country we got to grab them which the idea of a database like that existing is a really sobering thought for all of us who go to rallies and where the masks it's like so basically do I need to staple a balaclava to the back of my head like indefinitely you know hashtag delete your [ __ ] Facebook definitely you've not done so look into deleting your Facebook I've already done so myself after the whole Cambridge analytical thing I just felt like I couldn't trust them because not only did it turn out that they gave the information but I actually never did anything it was my friends that used some application and my information got scraped and then they come to find out Facebook gave this information or at least was giving it away way after the cutoff time that they said they were gonna stop so even with that I mean that's discerning in itself but the fact the federal government is doing this and they want it to be real-time and everything this is hugely problematic because these systems these facial identification systems routinely misidentify people of color African Americans in in the UK their system was as bad as 95% of people flagged were innocent so these systems are not some panacea and it's gonna cause a lot of people a lot of problems and it's gonna put people in danger because more people are gonna get flagged over a false-positive than are going to actually be flagged because they actually did something to supposedly warrant being caught those are just stumbling blocks to progress you know what progress means in this country is freedom you have a problem with progress or freedom failing if a few people who didn't do anything get locked up in order to have a system that for the indefinite future will find it find criminals and terrorists and keep them away from the all the nice rich white society so do it this is the security of our nation we're talking about and it sounds like you don't care very much about the Commonwealth of the American people you sound like a communist I'm going to do that too low it's scary he does he's that practice I could tell he spent a great deal of my life in a situation where I had to be very very good at being really mean heartless little bastard and those scars are still pretty evident in my behavior let me that is the authoritarian logic on the matter the fact is though is eventually one of the these bourgeois people are gonna get caught up in this and they're gonna find out it's not gonna be so fun for them and then that's the excuse they're gonna be given yeah they may get awarded a little bit of money and that's assuming they survive one thing I'd like to harken back to on the discussion about the the conditions of these concentration camps is on lefty Graham filed person posted something very interested it's a quote from an article to begin the quote Michele Breen director of migrant rights at the women's refugee commission met with a 16 year old girl who had been taking care of a young girl for three days the teen and others in their cage thought the girl was 2 years old she had to teach other kids in the cell to change her diaper brain said brain said that after an attorney started to ask questions agents found the girls on and reunited the two it turned out that the girl was actually four years old part of the problem was that she didn't speak Spanish but he language indigenous to Guatemala she was so traumatized that she wasn't talking brain said she was just curled up in a little ball and later in this article one of the Border Patrol guys was quoted being a course surrounded by sobbing and wailing children he was quoted as saying what we've got here is in Orchestra all we need is a conductor I don't care who you are I don't care how else you might perceive that that is chilling the stories that come out of these places are just they're horrible if four or five years ago you had asked me if this would have been happening in this country I would have said that you're crazy it's just the amount of shamelessness our administration has and a lack of humanity is just absolutely disgusting the depth are willing to go to pull us down into this hell our unfathomably just it's unfathomable I mean it's it's pretty obvious that in this case the Emperor wears no clothes but his cabinet and all the sycophants around him are trying to insist to us that that's okay because you know who wears clothes Nazis and we're not Nazis we're just doing what's best for everyone well yeah I wanted to bring up the heart thing just in conjunction with with all of this because with them creating these camps and with yet another system to spy on the American people make connections and with the lack of accountability all they have to say to the public is this person's an immigrant or whatever and if the reporters can't get to you to find out if this is true or not you're just gonna disappear well here's a very fun thought let's go back to Nazi Germany everyone talks about all of the Jews that died in the Holocaust that were sent into the camps and yes they were political enemy number one for Nazi Germany but bear in mind that after there were camps they just shoved everyone they didn't like in there there were also Romani there were also homosexuals there were also the disabled in these camps and that same thing might very well be applied in the future now that there are camps for Refugees now there are camps for people who illegally cross the borders not now that there are camps for the unwanted members of humanity that we don't want to accept into our society if you're a political dissident or if you're some of the kind of degenerate who might pose a pernicious threat to the state of American society then they might just say well you know what throw them in there with the refugees and it will deport them along with them and in that possible future deport might very well be a handy euphemism for pitching and of it I do want to remind your audience it is no conspiracy you need to look up Rex 84 this was an exercise done under Reagan that could have been used during a coup d'etat or really just any incident to declare a national emergency in these country in this country and they would execute what was called co g which is continuity of government where they basically the executive takes over the entire function of the government and with this already in place with heart being developed and a few years you have something like this come along all of a sudden the game has changed z the groundwork for fascism in this country is being laid down by law and by infrastructure now like we are building the infrastructure in this country for hardcore authoritarian oppression and left this neat to get it together because if we don't we could be in some really hard times because we don't know how these facilities are going to be used in the future a lot of times when you create institutions like these they don't simply go away and all the leftists who are thinking like oh well you know it's just capitalism just gonna collapse under its own weight and you don't worry about it doing anything no shut up and all the dem socks and sock Dems who are you know we got to do something but we can't actually do anything that's too much of doing something because that would be bad and wrong and people might get hurt like there's camps there's concentration camps shut the [ __ ] up do something block a street than something okay so capitalism collapses under its own weight in this country and the government says well this is a huge recession there are people starving in the streets our nation is falling apart because goods and services just aren't moved around like capitalism did for so long let's Institute something let's Institute socialism we we don't have the wherewithal to go and help everybody so there will be socialism for America our economic policy will still be trading overseas but here it will be socialist okay we'll just give everyone what they need it'll be a form of socialism but national it'll be a national socialism P well like like a Nazi ISM kind of exactly because what were the pre-existing conditions for the National Socialist Party to rise to power so quickly and so effectively in pre Nazi Germany there was a massive recession following a war that they got stomped it but don't worry because they'll get about three four years in power and then the socialist branch will create a ruckus and then all of a sudden oh we've got to get rid of these people so they'll just kill them off on our next story here we had two court rulings here and it was like one step forward or two steps back or maybe it's the other way around I'm really not sure to fully make of this the good news I want to start with this first the Arizona appeals court upheld a ruling affirming a Phoenix law protecting LGBT people from discrimination from businesses under constitutional grounds basically what happened was the hall same-sex wedding incident involving not a cake this time but wedding invitations the argument put forth from the business owner was that they felt that they did not have to make a full invitation for a gay couple or lesbian couple but they could still serve them generally what they wanted to do was tell them no we're not gonna serve you this way but we got some pre-made invitations here and you guys can use these well I mean I can kind of see the point there because if I make wedding invitations and a couple of neo-nazis come in and they're there's such a sweet nice couple and they go we're getting married in July and we'd like wedding invitations that say no queers and no Jews you know I'm gonna say I'm sorry my friend I cannot do that and I'm gonna give them my pre-made wedding invitations that say smash the fash here's where this analogy doesn't actually work so the see Phoenix has a law on the books that says that you cannot discriminate against certain classes and one of those classes is LGBT people's under the law itself it simply just states that you can't discriminate now of course there's a double-edged sword here if Nazis wanted to get protection they could just write themselves in right now it's gonna give this administration another two years but my scenario is very flawed in that that's literally hate speech that wouldn't fly our way I just kind of wanted to deconstruct it for for our listeners their kids it is something that somebody on the right might do because they love playing these games exactly you had to turn it into some horrible dystopian idea about what if Nazis were a protected class and I wouldn't be super upset about that except that might be in our future it's so ridiculous well I mean that's kind of a hallmark of our administration so far is ridiculous and scary ridiculous in the literal sense as in worthy of ridicule Atika I did want to get your take on it because you live in the Phoenix area so was this like a big thing like where their parties and the streets over this and feels no like gay people here care about not being lynched not not getting maybe the [ __ ] McGee who in a fort of marriage it's this is kind of such a non-issue for most gay people because most gay people are poor people and I'm sorry but this like cool if you can afford to get married but you can afford to get married if you're like gay Bob who works in accounting and makes like hundred thousand dollars a year that's what you get that's like the story of our generation though I mean can't afford to do anything well as some absolute cutie pointed out on Twitter we don't care about cakes stop talking about cakes we care about not getting beaten down at school we care about not being singled out by state violence from the police we care about not being turned out of our homes by our parent because we come out of the closet we don't care that much about cakes and I think the issue here is less cakes and weddings than it is a statement overall about how deeply homophobic our society really is and even with the leaps and bounds we we've made in decriminalizing homosexuality and legalizing gay marriage there is still a very serious problem that American culture has with LGBT communities the whole issue around discrimination of course should this the surface level talk about cakes and and and what not that that's not really the stuff that matters everybody's like focusing on like the one situation for the most part it doesn't seem like there's a lot of people that are stepping back and looking at this where it's it's not just about somebody not being served by a private business yeah that's a problem you're right there are people being kicked out of their their homes for being gay disowned by their family for being gay and God forbid that the [ __ ] that trans people have to deal with because it's like that but like a hundred times worse because they're getting it from bigots that are gay as well because they could that's that they feel that that's their turn now is nasty as that seems and really it needs to stop well I think overall it's indicative of an institutional and cultural unwillingness or inability even to talk about the more serious issues and as a stand-in for the more serious issues such as the fact that trans women of color are one of the most are statistically one of the most victimized classes of people in our society and all the all of the kids being thrown out of their homes for being gay I think that if we're unable or unwilling to candidly discuss the real issues it works as a standard but if that's going to be the sole focus of LGBT discourse in this country then yes we need to talk about something other than wedding cakes and wedding invitations soon it'll be it'll be wedding limousines or wedding pans on the back of your midsize sedan and we don't need that we need a very real and very honest discourse about how deeply homophobic and transphobic our really is but no one cares about that because you can't sell that you can sell a rainbow cake you can at your grocery store you know you can put a big rainbow banner and say we serve the gays and make a bunch of money you can market that can't market actual liberation if no I mean that's why the cake thing is an issue because its capital is allowed to be an issue because there's how you know portions of the bourgeois that hate the gays and then sports from the blue Schwalm who look at them so money money's here let's get money that's why cake is an issue and why the killing of trans people in the streets ISM are you trying to imply that this level of discrimination the the the racism and the homophobia and everything is actually conducive to the financial interests of large businesses because without it all of their cool diversity posters and billboards and television news ads would not be effective in bringing in a greater amount of capital and bringing in new clientele is is that the point you're driving here you know that takes what I was saying further but yeah you're absolutely right I didn't even like make that I didn't make the whole connection of well they've got a perfect he keep the homophobia going because then they can't sell rainbow cakes but ya know you're absolutely right about that unfortunately like this was there there was a blowback on a Supreme Court case it was exactly that and it turned out that it was a procedural issue with the court case so the good news is with this even though the court ruled in favor of the bigots they did so because the board in Colorado really did not address the situation in a legally appropriate manner so what this actually does mean is that this particular constitutional issue is not done and we just need to find the right case to push through and it may even be a refiling of this particular case so the current ruling was bad but there's still hope here that a constitutional standpoint what was done was wrong and it can be rectified here and that these kind of protections can and of course should be put in place so it could feasibly be brought up in court on a different case this same point about denying service to LGBTQ people exactly because of the way that the Colorado Board treated the people that brought the case forward because they said that they felt like they were being discriminated against for being religious and they weren't given the proper representation to put forward their case the last part of the story though that I did want to go over though does kind of tie into the the kind of bigotry toe that Attica was talking about there's a story that's been floating around that a tendancy shop owner right after the court ruling the Supreme Court ruling not the Arizona one post of the sign outside his building stating that no gays were allowed so this story is actually being used as propaganda this shop owner did not put this sign out in regards to this ruling he has had this sign up since 2015 so this is not something new that he's done and it's getting floated around like it's a new thing and what these kind of stories do when we float them around and they're not true like this this emboldened the right we need to be very careful about this because one truthfulness but two they can also take this and they can claim and say yeah so this is a victory and it's time to celebrate and this is how we're gonna celebrate and we can be pushing that narrative unknowingly by spreading these false stories like this so this is an example of fake news coming out of some do-good media organizations that think that they know better than us what they should publish honestly I think it's sad but it's also a little bit inspiring that not one episode of this podcast can go by without us having to give some PSA about some kind of alt right news media SIA and on that note has anyone here heard about the drop the B campaign yes I've heard about dropped to be so LGBT they want to drop the be because there's there's no to there's more than two genders all that and they're trying to apply it to corrupt the the movement and sow discord into the LGBT community but jokes on them because it turns out LGBT community there's pretty smart cookies there who would have guessed I mean like cheese so look at the people like spreading it these people are so bad they can't even like hide the fact that this is who they are they use their main profiles for instance but the other thing is is like they can't even create a message without like stepping outside of themselves it's so obvious and it's really neat to see how quickly it was caught within a I don't know how quickly I jumped on this train but the second day that I was seeing the drop the B campaign spread around Tumblr Facebook and Twitter I saw screen grabs from the poll Board of 4chan with I'm gonna try to quote this directly and it's gonna hurt to say it let's destroy the left the way the [ __ ] destroyed the LGBT community or know the way the [ __ ] destroyed the queers that is absolutely indicative of the mindset here it's nothing but a political battleground for them they absolutely don't care about anything except these tiny petty hit-and-run tactics and especially in the case of the drop the B campaign as it's called this really shows so what you were saying about how fast this whole thing was caught on Twitter and it was found on poll I mean just instinctively though like I knew like I knew like the second that I looked at this like this was just BS it was so it was just way too obvious and that's the thing like I said these people they're incapable of stepping outside of themselves it's on the Internet so there's obviously gonna be some level of skepticism in my mind I was just when I actually found confirmation that it wasn't what it appeared to be on the surface how quickly I found that conformation and the absolute agility with which a broad term here the absolute agility with which the left is beginning to find these things out and debunk them I would say in this case the the desperation and half acid Nisour the tactics being used by some elements of the right is really nice to see that kind of solidarity and leftism that that kind of active forward thinking that that skepticism is really great to see and the thing with the the guy in the town hall in Seattle on top of that it's really it makes me feel good to know our movement is more than a few angry weirdos online and right now things are moving rather quickly toward a very very ugly possible future as unsettling as it is as terrifying as it is it is just absolutely great to watch the left move move in and act and be to all of our listeners and to anyone who might pick this up 10 years in the future to you - thank you so much for just being part of the best solution that we have thank you for having the the guts to look through all of the news stories to ask the hard questions to say the difficult things to add to the dialogue and constantly debate and think over what is the best way to take our movement or and to actually get out there get into the streets engage in direct action and try to implement some of the best solutions we've come up with this is good this is healthy this is what the world needs right now genuine this is what the world needs and I'm happy to see it functioning at all yeah that that first story because even if we lose at least we'll have done something right at least we didn't just call it quits phone calls that's so true I mean you call out I really like I'm so done with them I just like there's camps I have no more patience for their stupid games for their their canvas a and there's we gotta vote midterms and their phone calls and letters I'm done there are camps I'm done done put their [ __ ] do something yeah but what you said just it it absolutely gives me hope for the future because people are going out there like when I saw that video I I knew there's more people out there like this this guy is not just some aberration and these people a lot of these people that did fight for this country that that join the army and stuff like that I used to work for an institution that used to do business with these people and serve these people these people they legitly care about the people for the most part so this kind of thing doesn't surprise me I I would be very very hard pressed to say that the this guy is a one of a kind thing no this is this is probably something closer to the norm so with that all being said today I did want to thank our listeners we're gonna be doing a bonus episode this week by the way it's going to be coming out very soon we had so much we could not cover it all in one episode and we did not want to inundate you with a three hour long episode so stay tuned for that it's gonna be dropping very soon if you like what we do like comment subscribe to our SoundCloud or to our YouTube we'd really very much appreciate that stay tuned to our Twitter we're gonna have some announcements they're coming up very soon on how you could support the enceladus stations network so with that all being said from the far side of Enceladus good night and good luck [Music] you

One Million Cups Presentation with Q&A from the Audience
thank you all very much it's a pleasure to be here first things first though I'm gonna need some audience participation for my Instagram story what's up everybody okay cool let's get started alright relates a set amount of time alright so my name is Benton Munya over the last four years I've been spending every waking moment thinking studying learning developing networking creating and otherwise innovating nutrition products that positively impact the 60 trillion cells that make up the human body but we have an issue we deal with this thing called the standard American diet it's full of processed carbohydrates high sugar and things that otherwise just simply do not make us well I hate to bring this up because we all know it and yet nothing really changes every year since 1960 we've gotten more and more obese and yet we all know this right one-third of Americans are obese one-third of Americans are overweight eighteen percent of our children are overweight and it's not cool we get bigger and the medical industry continues to profit that's why they're in business can't hold it against them but nobody's really asking the real question of are we treating the cause and are we not just treating the symptoms things that used to be kooky are no longer kooky over the last five to ten years we've seen a rise in what we used to laugh at for example gluten-free juicing non GMO organic paleo you name it ten years ago we laughed at these concepts and today they're respected we're witnessing modern day evolution we're getting smarter and we're adapting when life's when life gives you lemons you make lemonade my generation was given chicken nugget and I don't know how to make chicken nugget aid so we're just figuring it out what I'm here to talk to you about today it's back what I believe is the next most important thing in nutrition we have wrongly diagnosed as fat being the issue of the graph I already showed you oh so depressingly fat is our brain is 60% fat when we're born our brain is virtually the same size as it is today the brain loves fat carbohydrates and sugar dehydrates the brain and yet we think that fat is our issue we need to be eating more fat the food pyramid what we learned in elementary school is simply wrong using facts sparingly is not advised and having carbohydrates as the base of a healthy diet is just simply not accurate lastly fat is close to nature there's nothing that is a healthy fat that is very processed a healthy fat is a vegetable it's a seed it's a nut it's a fish it's an animal there's very little process involved with eating fat and assimilating it the truth about fat is that it supports all of these things namely body composition when you eat that it's super scientific and I don't want to get too deep into it but when you eat that is very hard to oxidize so you're in the process of burning fat as fuel much longer than you're in the process of burning sugars and protein as fuel so because of this you're burning fat as fuel and you're storing muscle burning fat for fuel when you eat it's growing muscle that's an important theme here heart health brain function hormone health skin and healthy hair among other things with a high-fat diet but don't take it from me dr. Jeff Bullock who is super well renowned he's been studying low carb diets high fat diets performance enhancement doing these types of routines has a quote that I'll read you briefly by continuing to provoke fear about the harmful effects of saturated fat Americans have decreased their total consumption of saturated fat and replaced those calories with an even greater amount of carbohydrates this dietary flip-flop of trading away saturated fat and replacing it with carbohydrates has occurred in the same time interval as the rates of obesity and diabetes have rocketed skywards that graph from the 1960s is the same time frame which we've started eating more carbohydrates and our beets has skyrocketed that is not the issue this might be coincidence or more likely it's an extremely unfortunate unintended consequence at helio we don't believe it's a coincidence we think that that is good and the Department of Health and Human Services agrees with us for the first time in their organization's history in their Dietary Guidelines they've now actually recommended Americans begin to eat more fat so Benton you're telling me I should eat more fat and less carbohydrates what if I ate only fat and no carbohydrates is that a bad thing can I eat too much fat no in fact that's kind of the objective when you eat so much fat and there's a lack of carbohydrates and blood sugar you enter a metabolic state called ketosis where your body burns ketone molecules instead of blood sugar molecules what happens in ketosis is amazing cognition is on fire you have more efficient energy back to the oxidation thing the ketones are just a cleaner fuel and like I said with the desired body composition you're burning fat and you're storing muscle the opposite of what happens in a none preferred diet so briefly what are ketones ketones are the only secondary fuel source to glucose typically probably everyone in this room barring a few exceptions is running on glucose right now there's two molecules that you can run on glucose and ketones ketones are produced naturally in the liver in an absence of blood sugar of blood sugar typically to burn through all your blood sugars to 36 to 48 our process to get into ketosis but this gentleman that I'm standing with dr. dom vegas tino at a USF who's featured in tools of titans by Tim Ferriss on page 27 has its legit he has duplicated this ketone molecule this pure energy molecule and made it available in a supplemental form ester liquid and a powder and a powder supplement so I learned about all of this my brother and I we've been in nutrition for a long time we learned about all this stuff and we're like dude like there's no other option now that we know we got to eat high fat and we got to take beta hydroxy butyrate ketones like there's no other option so we started doing it and we felt amazing we were eating high fat lunches high fat dinners who are taking supplemental ketones and lunch and dinner were really easy but no good breakfast options there's nothing for breakfast I was high sighs that was convenient that was alkaline that was high vibe that was just get you out the door convenient so we made something dawn the ultimate breakfast it's a 50 ingredients smoothie blend it has Keita it has keto molecules in it it's got 25 grams of plant and algae fat 25 grams of plant now g-protein pull dosed like a set of beta hydroxy butyrate ketones got 10 servings of vegetables which is more than your entire daily requirement in one meal it's got a full no atrophic stack for brain cognition all coming from herbs 3 grams of net carbs which is very low and 3 grams of sugar this has not been thrown together it's been an RD for over a year and I'm pumped that now we're sharing with you so these are a couple examples of what a donk smoothie looks like or a Dom Bowl we advocate the best way to take it as a smoothie Bowl high fat high protein low carb low sugar smoothie Bowl it's delicious it's intelligent its nutrient dense it's got a high vibration what's next so our objective now as a company is to grow our monthly distribution to five hundred and fifty five monthly customers that that level will be a million dollar business I feel like things can start getting fun we are hoping to start launching partner locations places that you can go in and order a dongle off of the menu smoothie shops coffee shops juice stops etc we don't want to go retail because we want this is a curated product there's a little bit of Education to it so the retail partnerships that we do want we want to have you know as a menu item and our distribution strategies are through Amazon and Instagram so it would be awesome if you connected with us our Instagram is Helio today I am Benton money on our Facebook is Helio today and for more information on the product and the company please visit our website today is instead of calm there's no calm at the end of it WWE Helio today thank you guys so much for your ears I'm faster than I expected so I have now would love to accept any questions and go into more detail [Applause] you're summoned by the industry guys is it I love the mills it more about how our [Music] action man is using all our consumers here should be how one has time to those customers right now for sure yes thanks so we manufacture it at the amazing laboratory called Amerigo labs and it's just so convenient that he's standing by our packaging solution no this wouldn't this wouldn't have happened without Ralph's nicer so please give it up for the man himself really like I've had it I've had an extraordinary amount of help and I owe Ralph a lot so we ship out a month supply comes in a really nice orange box and so inside as this is what a meal looks like 5x7 envelope 93 grams of powder we manufacture it all by hand effectively we source all the raw ingredients that come in we mix them we mesh them we put them into a powder auger flip the auger take it out put it through a funnel fill the bags individually compress heat seal I'm throwing the Box ship them up the door [Music] what I'm a comedian is how do I add to our hideous human look at it now excellent our original objective was actually go more of a like soil and route like prepackaged in a bottle drink it anywhere kind of thing but I didn't feel like after we launched I realized that I wasn't giving the consumer enough credit people have three minutes to make a smoothie and make it a much better experience so we've gone with the prepackaged but like for example if you're on the go or you're camping or hiking or whatever putting in a water bottle and shaking it is totally awesome I had that this morning yes sir yeah I love the morning too so you see this is very this one yes sir does it had our making sure we're GE or sometime and what is a greeting card do that and also has Mary Jean like he created asleep sure so yeah I knew Soylent was going to come up at some point they've done a really good job at creating like creating an industry around future food and what they've done as a concept is really interesting hey like we can get all the nutrition we need if it's just formulated correctly I have a couple personal issues with Soylent just I wouldn't consume it it's soy protein which isn't good for men at all it's got estrogen in it which is kind of the opposite of testosterone so I wouldn't advocate Soylent for men it just affects the matter or soy by that you know what we're talking about it or soy men should stay away from soy is my belief and among other things it's high carb and it's high sugar and we've gone the hyper fat we're kind of the opposite of Soylent and to the flavor taste we've flavored it with some stevia and monk fruit so that we could keep the real sugar down because we could you know we could Jack it up with sugar but that's defeats the whole purpose so we've actually one of our mottos is always in beta and so we're always testing and we've got another formula with zero grams sugar that is coming along quite nicely and it's got a smoother more rich taste and and this is a little bit of a sweeter taste but our objective my objective when formulating this was like okay I know exactly what I want the nutrition to be and let's reverse engineer off of that not let's go for a good taste and fit what we can in it was exactly full days and vegetables high protein high fat low carb low sugar BCAAs nootropics that kind of stuff working backwards and then we flavored it how we could cool yeah is constantly networking ecology will drink happening in addictions of degrees or energy do you drink coffee yet where you go yeah great question I drink coffee from time to time I used to drink it a lot more I have two knocks on coffee and I have one solution if you're just simply not going to give it up so my two knocks on coffee are its acidic and wellness is a synonym to alkalinity alkalinity is a synonym to oxygen oxygen is sending them to living a long time so if we reverse engineer that acidic kind of shortens our life quality and caffeine is a stimulant which just fries our adrenal glands and I believe that energy should be produced from within and not relied on from external sources so that's kind of my two cents of coffee but that doesn't inspect that it's delicious and it's awesome when we drink do you feel good so what I do with coffee is there's a gentleman actually what on the first slide one of the pictures was with him his name's Dave Asprey he started bulletproof and bulletproof coffee is this idea of putting fat with your coffee and so I have two moderations of bulletproof coffee that I do MCT oil which stands for medium chain triglyceride which is a medium chain of fat that can't be stored so teas are burned or it's pooped and so that's why if you do too much MCT you get digestive issues but if you do the right amount MCT then you're burning it instead of anything else so I'd like to bullet proof coffee some people like putting butter and with it as well but in replacement of the alcohol for alkaline and no caffeine I've been doing bulletproof matcha recently so it's a no atrophic style green tea and I put MCT in that blended up with some coconut milk or almond milk but I know that there are people who won't give up coffee so my recommendation to you will be by some MCT oil on Amazon for 17 bucks and and put some fat in your coffee [Music] all new around let me connect education here not about those accessories being impacted yesterday often so tell us there's a lot of stuff like this on the market right now keep some of something that some of them a differentiator but what else makes your funding to eat versus what's on the market right now absolutely so nutrition is absolutely it's a crowded space there's a lot of people who who want to be involved in nutrition I think it's a big market for good reason right now we're experiencing the wellness revolution you've seen the statistics on unhealth and I think that over the next ten to thirty years we're going experience the revolution into health and I think a lot of large companies are going to be built so I'm a supporter of lots of companies in this space ketones themselves are a differentiator like leaps and bounds ahead of anybody else like a Soylent or something like that keep on suppose this way for ahead and then if we look at the ketone competition what our original belief around ketones was is that just BHB molecules by themselves are rather hollow yeah it's going to have to suppress your appetite yeah it's going to give you some energy but I come from a world of internal cleansing and plant medicine and herbal power and things like that and I realized that there's a lot of micro nutrition that you're missing if you're just fasting all day on bhp so what the combination of this putting it so far ahead is kind of the science and nature component where we can jump-start ketosis but we're also prioritizing vegetables and detox and alkalinity and things like that yes sir and solutions first one ketones straight exacta yes is there a concern that can accent many yes that's called ketoacidosis and ketoacidosis is a 911 call a diabetic that got ketoacidosis they would have a millimolar which is kind of the reading level a millimolar level of level of blood ketones over 15 or 17 or 20 and that's dangerous supplemental and nutritional ketosis is 0.5 to 4 millimoles and we're sitting around walking around at 0.0 so just getting up to 0.5 3.5 some friends and I have been experimenting with fasting and supplementing just bhp by itself along with our meal and we've gotten as deep as like four and a half five but way far away from the danger zone but for diabetics that's an insulin blood sugar type of issue where they're so reliant on carbohydrates and sugar that a switch can be interesting and that's one of the main reasons why we've been formulating the second product is so that we can monitor insulin and blood sugar while that switch occurs because we know the diabetics need this more than anyone I have experience in direct sales back-to-back years 2013 2014 some friends and I we all did over seven figures in direct sales ourself and so that was really my first experience in nutrition and distribution so I believe in that model massively the trick about launching something like that is you it grows very quickly and you have to have capital to withstand and so one of our objectives now is becoming a million dollar business and then having the cash flow where we can turn on a nationwide affiliate program [Music] pretty Monument yeah crushing on energy island economy for this video at $1,800 [Music] is that no 555 people buying a month supply which cost $150 which is 20 meals at 7:59 prices Chipotle so it's $150 monthly subscription 555 people doing that eighty-three thousand dollars a month in revenue times 12 million dollars a year yeah how did you pages remain hungry human yeah probably 80 I want this so I'm going to do it 20 I think people might like it because for us it was scratching our own itch it was like there's no good breakfast and everybody should eat breakfast or does eat breakfast and so we have an opportunity that if people don't know they want it we can educate them on the fact that they do want it [Music] - a bottle convenient and make things up really cheaply have you ever gone after you are or don't like that I like taco in this video searching a visit necessarily with 104 that unfortunately has a Liam a trapeze among board the Trinidad visual foot barge liking that nature but it is a little higher in sugar one like your visual medium but no no there's that much product and no doubt we've discussed and actually tested some high fat bars bonded actually with some of the bell stirs gluten-free syrup so we've tried a few things and I totally believe in like some macadamia almond butter like really awesome bars so they're coming it's just you know a simple matter of like where do we start and how do we scale in ten years we'll have everything under the Sun like the sweetest product line on planet Earth but for now we started breakfast yep two questions my identity is roll introduced market under support three farmers and it next one thing you mentioned it you're going to recognize the social media to around a to control how I'm going to increase 32 made doubly nice employers awesome thanks for your presentation last week I enjoyed it and thank you for your question definitely the Global nutrition market I don't really see any preference versus you know demographics or others so anybody that eats breakfast which is everybody as far as Instagram we have a couple strategies we film and record and document everything we're loyalists of vaynermedia and garyvee and just kind of that whole idea of olicity and just a simple storytelling kind of manner and then also in like eighty that and then twenty like you know there's always that like nailing the algorithm component where we're going and finding relevant hashtags people that are talking about things that we're already talking about automating simple processes stuff like that so I think we have a good grips on it one of the things that is just difficult about doing this as a couple lucky breaks and some people talking about you we want to do influencers I'm on a podcast tomorrow which I'm pumped about the guys got half a million Facebook Likes so like events like that that I hope will propel us faster than they do slow but we're also totally committed to just grinding it out yeah you are correct in your journal for one this 20 meals 750ml $7 okay uh Jack Ralph wait Ryan four of us okay if you have a relevant reason for asking we can talk privately but like not going to really disclose its business and we make money and that's you know part of it but our main objective is helping people and so like that's kind of what our forward message is all about [Music] that's awesome we are a couple guys no basement though we like were lucky the stars aligned and we collaborated with Ralph and his wife Carol and they've got a six thousand square foot manufacturing facility they just had an organic inspection couple weeks ago they didn't FDA inspection I mean it's top-notch clean total up enough we wear gloves hair nets beard Nets from time to time so that we are scaling appropriately and we know what the next level looks like and you know like I said it's like we're in this for quality and for actually making a difference and so like we're not interested in putting dirt in a bag and making people pee like we actually want you to feel it because retention and it was so much easier to sell five hundred fifty five things month-over-month to people that love it the thousand true fans philosophy than it is to be spinning wheels getting new business talking to new people like it'll run you ragged so I'd rather just work with people that like really dig it and so we have to go above and beyond to do that what's up man respond let everybody know for me a is Martin his product market earth on the try to be not often that I don't if for today that I'll just write it man really totally talking about thank you yeah so please follow us on Instagram we really want to just grow our social presences we really have three objectives grow our social increase our customer base and get connected with people who can help us grow our customer base the retail outlets coffee shop owners co-working owners juice shop owners etc and Instagram influencers doctors physicians chiropractors nutritionists people that are going to advocate for us so buy the product or tell someone's that can get us to find people that will buy the product you

ever really seems to care [Music] oh [Music] is [Music] oh for this morning's time for children of all ages i want to talk to you about service and that's something that jesus talks about in this morning's gospel jesus talks about how important it is for us to serve god well how do we serve god how do we serve jesus well i think that to serve god we need to help each other we need to serve each other through loving kind actions can you think of a way you can serve your fellow human beings on this earth well there are all kinds of ways to serve there are all kinds of ways to help people we see it every day all you have to do is look around there are groups of people who cook and bring meals to people in need there are folks who give out socks to the homeless and there are others who protest when they think something has gone wrong they bring our attention and that protest can come in many ways it can be marching in the street it can be writing a letter to the editor it can be done through art the song you just heard erin sing comes from a group called choirs for climate and they're trying to raise awareness of climate change and they're doing it through their art and their spirituality how amazing is that is there a way that you can take your interest your art the thing that lies deep in your heart and use that to serve others to serve all of creation and god let's have a prayer holy creator we are so fortunate to be given gifts from you help us to share those gifts with others in ways that enlighten encourage and bring about positive change bring about and share more of your love in your holy name we pray amen thank you someday i'll get a fancy headset so that i don't have to move the microphones around but i kind of like the microphones it makes me feel important this morning scripture readings please join me for a moment of silence as we gather ourselves for the scripture the first reading is from jeremiah in the hebrew scriptures chapter 31 verses 31-34 the days are surely coming says the lord when i will make a new covenant with the house of israel and the house of judah it will not be like the covenant that i made with their ancestors when i took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of egypt a covenant that they broke though i was their husband says the lord but this is a covenant that i will make with the house of israel after those days says the lord i will put the law within them and i will write it on their hearts and i will be their god and they shall be my people no longer shall they teach one another or say to each other and know the lord for they shall all know me from the least of them to the greatest for i will forgive their inequity and remember their sin no more this morning's gospel reading is from john chapter 12 verses 20 through 33. now among those who went out to worship at the festival were some greeks they came to philip who is from bethesda in galilee and said to him sir we wish to see jesus philip went and told andrew then andrew and philip went and told jesus jesus answered them very truly he answered them the hour has come for the son of man to be glorified very truly i tell you unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies it remains just a single grain but if it dies if there is much fruit those who love their life lose it and those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternal life whoever serves me must follow me and where i am there will my servant be also whoever serves me the father will honor now my troll now my soul is troubled and what should i say father save me from this hour no it is for this reason that i have come to this hour father glorify your name then a voice came from heaven i have glorified it and i will glorify it again the crowd standing there heard it and said that it was thunder others said an angel had spoken jesus answered this voice has come for your sake not for mine now is the judgment of this world now the ruler of this world will be driven out and i when i am lifted up from the earth will draw all people to myself he said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die may the words of my mouth the meditations of my heart be acceptable to you o god my strength and my redeemer every week we've been having a bible study about 11 of us gather when we read the gospel together we read the gospel that is scheduled for sunday and then we have an open freeform discussion we begin with a brief check-in named something you're grateful for or for this week it being st patrick's day and thinking about the luck of the irish we shared how we felt lucky that day daffodils breaking through lilacs greening up vaccines received after our check-in we have a short prayer someone reads the scripture out loud and the floor is open for comments questions thoughts this week mary spoke up first and i'm paraphrasing she said i'm confused what does jesus mean if you love your life you will lose it i can't imagine jesus would want us to be depressed or something she's right it is confusing he says those who love their life lose it and those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternal life it's one of those times i wish jesus was a little less contradictory or if not contradictory a little less paradoxical i mean god gave us life it's a gift and her to hate it and so began another rich bible study discussion today's today's gospel reading is not easy it doesn't go where we wish it would go or at least it doesn't go where i wish it would go and where we're going is calvary with jesus and it's not pleasant as sue said i just don't like lent lent can be a bit of a hall and as we get closer and closer to easter it gets drearier and darker this week we find jesus already in jerusalem and the urgency of his hour intensifies in between last week's reading and this week's reading last week you'll remember was jesus's conversation with nicodemus in between these readings jesus has fed the five thousand walked on water healed a blind man debated with religious authorities raised lazarus from the dead and we also learn in john chapter 11 that the religious authorities have decided to kill jesus and i quote if we let him go on like this everyone will believe in him and the romans will come and destroy both our holy place and our nation and then says it is better for you to have one man die than to have the whole nation destroyed so from that day they planned to put him to death and jesus no longer walked in the open in this morning super dense reading jesus interprets his death and we see that what the religious authorities had been wary of that is jesus gaining more popularity is happening our reading opens with greek people seeking jesus out they are non-jews perhaps they become the first gentile disciples it seems as though everyone is indeed coming to jesus his reach is expanding as his hour draws near there's a sense of urgency in this passage and i i really feel it throughout the gospel of john jesus seems to struggle to get his followers to understand he announces that his hour has come he talks about its meaning and what is expected from his followers he embraces his fate and if we doubt what he says he's backed up by the voice of god the voice who comes for our sake not for his there's a lot happening in this reading but there's a thread that runs throughout it and that is how jesus death will create a community and how that community is to be in the world very truly i tell you unless a grain of wheat falls to the earth and dies it remains just a single grain but if it dies it bears much fruit i know from chatting with a lot of you that we have a lot of serious gardeners here at first congregational and all gardeners know as i'm sure everyone knows that you have to plant the seed in order to harvest a crop here jesus is the seed and his death will ultimately bring about a new community an image of death and resurrection jesus says and i when i'm lifted up from the earth will draw all people to myself his death and of course his resurrection will bring people to him and it's not for a specific group it's all people remember the religious authority said everyone will believe in him and we see evidence of that in the greeks who come to see jesus the community grows just as the fruit in the parable grows jesus calls us into community into relationship with each other into relationship with god through each other jesus's death creates the fruit of community and it's through this community that we can enter into a new relationship with god throughout the gospel of john jesus invites us into this new relationship and he uses metaphors that sometimes confuse us new life eternal life new birth and it all points to a new way of being drawing us closer to god jesus and god are intimately connected to each other connected through love as believers in community we are connected to god and jesus and each other by love as the fruit the relationship of community members is an expression of the relationship shared by god and jesus that's beautiful our relationship with each other is an expression of god's love but what does that mean and how do we live into that vision when jesus says whoever serves me must follow me and where i am there will my servant be also whoever serves me god will honor it makes me think of a scene that's yet to come in the gospel and that's when jesus washes the disciples feet serves everyone his community and when i think about this community that's to form upon his death jesus is showing us how to treat each other the community is not typically of this world the usual dynamics don't apply were to wash each other's feet not backbite competition should be left at the door and we're so lucky to be in a faith community i grew up without community as such really any sort whether it be secular or religious i grew up what is referred to as unchurched my family didn't even celebrate high holidays at church we're a fairly introverted group and really independently minded you just can't tell us anything on some level for my family reliance on community is seen as a weakness my first real experience with community as a full and intentional member was when i went to seminary and it really took me by surprise see i'm competitive by nature some may say a little bit aggressive when it comes to expressing my thoughts i was completely unprepared for the community i found at seminary and unlike my other academic experiences there was no competition what i found was collaboration and cooperation the group appreciated the various gifts of the members and made the most of them by raising each other's gifts we learned more because we weren't busy jockeying for first place we weren't busy blocking our minds with how we were going to respond and get one up on the person and that created a situation where sharing was easy learning was fun and expansive however to participate in this special relationship in this special community i had to leave some things at the door i had to give up parts of my smaller self things i was proud of things that fed my vanity i like to be the center of attention i like to win and i can create a competition out of nearly anything it just didn't fly there and it took me a while to let go of the ways i was used to being those ways i was nearly addicted to it was a process but what a reward through the help of my fellow seminarians i found a new way of being yes seminary was an academic setting and it was also spiritual the community of students created a yes and situation it was such a wonderful and freeing experience but for that to happen we all needed to participate and leave certain things behind getting back to the question of our bible study from mary in a small way perhaps you could say we all had to lose some of the things we love in this life in order to enter into a new way of being this new community and relationship jesus's death and resurrection created something all those years ago jesus told us about it a community of servants following jesus's path the faith community shares his love in this world that's how it continues to bear fruit all those years ago jesus gave us the parable of the wheat unless a grain of wheat falls to the earth and dies it remains just a single grain but if it dies it bears much fruit and so it was but how are we doing as the fruit are we serving do we let go of the love of our small self are we actually washing each other's feet being part of a faith community opens up so many possibilities we have the opportunity to lead life not in lockstep with our wider culture our culture of transactional relationships you scratch my back i'll scratch yours our culture that puts me first our culture that spins things to our own advantage our culture of power plays and backstabbing our culture that monetizes everything and uses really abuses people animals minerals plants well all of god's awe-inspiring creation for ill for short-term gain in a faith community as followers of jesus were to leave the world's usual ways at the door even if we fall short we try with an open heart and in so doing there's freedom and relief from the world as we enter into this new kind of joy the joy of serving without expectation the joy of loving and being loved without condition and here we are a community of faith trying to restore that is trying to heal our separation from god through christ and through our relationships with each other amen our second hymn this morning in the pilgrim hymnal 233 breathe on me wrath of god [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] is [Music] hmm before we get into the morning prayer i want to remind you that if you have a joy or a concern that you would like the community to pray about please feel free to let me know by thursday is best but even friday morning please join me in the spirit of prayer holy one creator of all lover of all creation today we gather physically separated from each other but connected through your spirit may we be reminded that you are always near oh god of peace [Music] ever [Music] we ask for your help and guidance oh god as we navigate our world open our eyes and give us new awareness help us to turn toward you to work for justice and equality with loving and open hearts this morning we are especially thankful for the vaccine and that so many vulnerable people have already been vaccinated we send our prayers in love to edith and flossie and all our friends living a safe but somewhat isolated life we ask for prayers of peace and acceptance for warren and nina in virginia as they begin their final earthly walk together we pray for their families grant them peace and acceptance also this morning we pray for all the people living with the repercussions of racism and colonialism and finally we pray oh god for the victims and families of the recent shooting in atlanta we pray for the asian-american community and we ask your forgiveness for creating an environment that allows this violence and bigotry to occur our silence equals their oppression oh lord why do we hate and why do we hurt others i pray that someday we will truly see all the people on this earth as our sisters and brothers may you grant us peace and understanding in your holy name we pray and if you would join us in the prayer that jesus taught his disciples our father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever amen [Music] the benediction this morning is from micah do justice love kindness and walk humbly with your god amen [Music] um [Music] so [Music] so [Music] so [Music] you

Chaturanga Tutorial for All Levels with Progressions
hello everyone my name is caitlin and today i would like to take you through different ways that you can navigate chaturanga dandasana or in english your four limb staff pose if you take any active yoga classes often or most often rather your vinyasa yoga practice you have a lot of chaturangas throughout that particular discipline sometimes it is sprinkled into your hatha classes but more often than not your vinyasa practice so today i would like to take you through different ways that you can progress that posture safely and carefully in your body so if you're interested and you'd like to learn a little bit more about your chaturanga pose then just keep watching so you'll begin generally from a halfway lift that's often where you would enter the posture so as you're standing at your feet feet about hips width distance you'd inhale take your halfway lift exhale high plank plant your hands and step your feet back now first thing you would shift forward onto the tips of the toes so you notice that your shoulders are in front of your wrists option one would be to drop down to the knees but notice you're not in a tabletop pose the shoulders are still in front of the wrists and your hips they dip lower than they would in a tabletop posture from that shift forward of the hips and you're on your knees you would exhale to chaturanga dandasana lower halfway down notice that the shoulders are no lower than your elbows inhale to your upward facing dog you lift your knees and thighs right off the mat exhale into downward facing dog lower the heels and lengthen your spine so that right there would be option one which is a wonderful way to build a lot of strength and stability in the upper body and the abdominal muscles you drop down to your knees and your shoulders are slightly in front of the wrist so that would be option one more stable more control a great place if you're just starting off or a wonderful way to modify if there are a lot of vinyasas in the particular class that you're taking so then option two would be to keep the knees lifted again let's meet in a halfway lift you inhale halfway up hands to your shins are up to your thighs exhale high playing plant your hands step your feet back inhale shift forward it's the same thing with the shoulders in front of the wrists keep the knees lifted exhale chaturanga elbows in there's no flare notice again that your shoulders are in line with your elbows inhale upward facing dog lift your shins knees and thighs exhale downward facing dog lower the heels and lengthen your spine already i can feel that i'm a lot more out of breath so it is a lot more taxing on the body to keep the knees lifted and to lower down in that smooth and flat line often what will happen in chaturanga if there's resistance to dropping down to the knees what i'll often see students do is they drop the hips and then they lower and they're kind of in like this worm where they lower all the way down to the belly and if you want it to lower to the belly that's fine but you still want to stay engaged through your core muscles so dropping to the knees is a wonderful way to modify as you're building up strength to keep the knees lifted and lower down smooth and in control so option one you had on the knees option two the knees are lifted now let's say upward facing dog where you go often right from chaturanga if that's too much you would pass through chaturanga and lower to the belly and ribs inhale halfway up your spine is flat exhale high plank plant the hands step your feet back inhale shift forward you can do this from the knees or with the legs lifted exhale pass through chaturanga elbows in chin off the chest then lower to the belly the catch there is that the hips the ribs and the chest lower at the same time tops of your feet press down now here's your softer back bend inhale cobra pose all from the low back lift the heart lift the head exhale downward facing dog tuck the toes and elevate the hips so that's if you wanted to pass through your chaturanga lower all the way down hips front ribs chest everything touches the floor at the same time so you have from the knees you have knees lifted and then you have skipping the chaturanga or passing through it to lower to the belly as you start to get more familiar with that sequence you would take out the shift forward onto the tips of the toes it kind of just happens a little more freely and fluidly as you get more skillful with it so from your halfway lift inhale halfway up exhale chaturanga you plant the hands step the feet back and then lower halfway down on the knees or with the knees lifted inhale upward facing dog or you would lower to the belly lift into cobra and then exhale into downward facing dog drop to the knees you take your rest so that's what i have for our chaturanga dandasana breakdown i do hope that you found benefit from the verbal explanation as well as seeing it visually if you have any questions comments feedback please be sure to leave that in the comment section below have a beautiful rest of your day be kind to yourself and be kind to others and i hope to see you in my next video bye

Your FAITH Will Help Strengthen You THROUGH Your Challenges: Why You Need To Trust God #shorts
scripture did not say With God all things are easy but he surely did say that With God all things are possible even the things that are impossible with men God is capable God has the ability and the capacity to do all things and there's nothing too hard for him to do faith in God is to help strengthen us to face the challenges of life not to escape those challenges because we are not meant to abscond the challenges of life we are meant to walk through it and Proverbs 24 verse 10 says if you fail Under Pressure your strength is too small that is why adding faith in God as a Believer is not so that you will never have issues but it is that whenever you have problems and troubles and trials and solo and pain you will walk through it with the help of God

file settings i know you're going to say wait a minute that's not the open xr toolkit but it is very important that we go in and change all the post process settings inside of the config file because we now have the ability to manipulate all of those ourselves inside of the open xr toolkit next we are going to go through all the different post process settings that we can adjust and i'll share my personal settings with you as well and it may give you a good starting point and if you enjoy the content today be sure to hit that subscribe tick that little bell and smash on that thumbs up button it is greatly appreciated oh and by the way we are using the version 1.1.2 of the openxr toolkit if yours does not say this in the companion app just go down here to the link where it says check for newer version click on that and then you can download the newest version let's hop over to the community folder for microsoft flight simulator as i found this is the easiest way to backtrack to the config file if you are unsure of how to get to your community folder i will post the address down in the lower right hand corner if you are on the pc version or store-bought version and if you are on the steam version i'll post your address down here on the lower left so once you have your community folder open all we need to do is backtrack to the local cache so we're just going to left click on that and then we're going to come all the way down to where it says user config we're going to left click on that to highlight it and then give it a big ol right click so that we can open it with whatever application we choose today we're going to open that with the notepad plus plus so if this is your first time opening the config file it may look a little confusing to you but that's okay because we're going to walk through exactly what we need to do in here so most of the settings that you're going to find in here are actually adjustable inside a microsoft flight simulator but what we want to do is to scroll all the way down to the bottom so that we can get to the post process area for the vr settings so what we're going to do here is to turn all of these post processes off now how we're going to know whether something is either on or off if it is on it's going to have a 1 next to it and if it is off it's going to have a 0 next to it so now that you know that we're going to come through and adjust each of these so that they are turned off we're going to delete the one on the i adaptation color grading sharpen and fringe and if you do have any other of these that have a one next to it just go ahead and put a zero once you have finished putting a zero and turning all the post process off then we can come up to the file section head down the save give that a click and we are all set to go to open microsoft flight simulator oh yeah i did forget to mention we do need to do this before you open microsoft flight simulator so if you have that running exit microsoft flight simulator make these changes hit save and then open the sim backup so now that we're done here we can exit out of that application and we are done with this folder as well so we can get rid of that we no longer need the open xr toolkit companion app so we can also close that out now we're going to do is launch the sim and hop in the vr and i'll meet everybody back there in just a few moments and we are back inside of microsoft flight sim and also in vr mode you must be in vr mode to activate the menu for the open xr toolkit and you also must be inside a microsoft flight simulator if you try to open the openxr toolkit while you're in the steam home or something like that or the mixed reality home it will not open oh and by the way if you have any questions along the way while we're going through this post those down below in the comments and i'll get right back to you once you're in vr mode inside of microsoft flight sim to open the application we're going to hit the control and f2 key on your keyboard inside the open xr toolkit we have a couple different menus at the very top from left to right we have performance appearance inputs system and menu in our previous episode we have already gone over all these different performance options again if you haven't seen that i suggest you go over there and check that out but for anybody that is using the hp reverb g2 these are my settings that i'm using so to scroll to the right we're just going to use the control and f3 keys and all of your control options are down here at the very bottom so you can use these to be able to scroll through the different menus so over in the appearance menu we have a bunch of new options here for the post processing and this is why we needed to turn off all those post processing options inside of the config file first so to scroll down we're just going to use the control and f2 key and you want to go down to post processing and yours is probably going to be off so you just want to turn that on so once you turn on the post processing you will now have all these other options that you can adjust underneath the post processing the first option we have here is the sunglasses it's exactly that if you want to put a virtual pair of sunglasses over your headset so to speak while you're flying well you can do that so depending on how bright it is outside you can choose a varying level of darkness to use for your sunglasses we also have an option here called true night and this is really going to enhance your nighttime flying experience if you haven't tried it go ahead and try that out and let me know your thoughts down below in the comments underneath the sunglasses option we have all the other settings here for post processing we can adjust these are my current settings that i'm using for the hp reverb g2 so if you'd like to go ahead and try those out feel free i just want to let you know up front though that i try to make it look as real as possible inside the headset so the colors are not going to be overly saturated and it's not going to be really high contrast if you do try these settings out let me know what you think down below in the comments and if you have any suggestions for any of the setting changes also let me know of that so now that we've finished up with the appearance menu let's hop over to the system menu in this menu we have a couple other options here that we can adjust and the color games is one of the areas that i feel needed improvement again i have set this to my personal liking if you have another setting let me know because i'm always willing to try something new i have had some people ask me about the field of view and whether they should do any adjustment there or not and in my personal opinion just leave the field of view at a hundred percent and let it go below that we also have another new option here called zoom i tried that out and some of you may like it but i don't really see a need for it that's just me and if you know of a possible use case for this let me know what your thoughts are the next menu that we're going to take a look at is the menu menu and there are a couple changes in here so if we take a look down here we have an option here now that we can adjust the overlay offset either horizontally or vertically i think that is a really cool option now so we don't have that fps counter right in our face anymore you do have to turn on the fps counter so at the very top make sure you go over to the performance and then go down and turn on your fps counter once the fps counter is on then if you come over to the menu and go down to the overlay what's going to show up here is the overlay position here the fps counter won't actually move until you exit the open xr menu let me show you what i'm talking about here so when you go down and adjust your positioning once you finish go down to exit and as you can see the fps counter moved exactly where those parentheses were all right so i think that's going to wrap us up for today's video if you guys have any questions post them down below in the comments section and i will get right back to you thanks everybody for joining us on the channel today if you haven't done so make sure to go down below hit that subscribe tick that little bell and smash on that thumbs up button it is greatly appreciated to all my flight summer friends around the world keep the blue side up we'll see all the next one thanks for watching everybody

Gender Equality In Politics
gender equality in politics what does it mean do you know that only 23 percent of the world's politicians are women the lack of female political leaders on the world stage is all too visible you have to look no further than the 2017 family photo from the g20 of the 36 people in the picture only four were women according to wife forum org Rwanda is a surprise leader in female political participation its position at the top of the list of countries with the most female parliamentarians 49 out of 80 the evidence of gender discrimination is rooted in history tradition and culture while the female sex constitutes slightly more than 50% of the population only 14 of the total 200 governments or 7% are headed by women around the world women are closing the gender gap in areas such as health and education but significant gender inequality persists in politics democracy is not democratic without equality while women in politics experience violence and intimidation UN women in 2016 identified four ways to increase female participation in government first setting numerical targets for women in leadership positions second expanding and diversifying the pool of qualified and capable women able to run for election third increasing awareness of the benefits that women in politics bring and finally encouraging support for them among governing institutions and well with more balanced societies we are better able to gain peace and prosperity [Music]

PRINCESS AMIRA GETS ENGAGED | The Sims 4: The Royal Family | S2 Part 17
I'm going to have him get up and propose cuz it looks like the whole family seems to be staying here so oh no no King Henry don't miss this comeback hallo rainbows and welcome back to a exciting episode of the royal family in this episode we're going to be doing a few different things we're going to be having a celebration event for the now queen of su lani which is lalana and then hopefully Jabari and Amira will be engaged at the end of this episode - because Jabari is planning on proposing to Amira so we are at the Royal Palace of soo Lani and it actually looks like our royal Salone family is still a little bit sad they're still getting over the death of king mahaki if you guys on the last episode late lana was feeling confident that she is the queen I think she's been pretty prepared for this someone in the last episode said they hope that Leigh Lana is not going to be as much of a stickler and like as traditional witch I don't think she will be she's probably going to start implementing some new things pretty soon so we will get to see that happen but for now I'm going to go ahead and plan this little celebration event traditions here are a little bit different for Salani they do not have like the same coronation ceremony that Wenberg and Willow Creek and all of them do theirs is more just like a cava celebration just having their friends and family of course oh my gosh and then here we have a king maja cos mother Kay Allah she is still alive someone was saying that if they are really fit and really active then really fit Sims apparently they live a lot longer but she's just lived for so long it's insane she must have been extremely fit for this event and for all events of su Lani they're definitely a lot more casual like it looks like everyone showed up in their casual clothing which is totally fine because I don't think they expect people to show up in all of their formal outfits and everything I did play around with some of lei Lana's outfits and actually the white that I chose it looks a little bit more like a wedding dress but it had like the gold in it but I couldn't really find one that I loved and I was actually looking a Polynesian and I looked at their outfits and they looked very similar to English stresses like very fancy like off-the-shoulder with like a lot of fabric it was just that they were wearing Polynesian necklaces and jewelry and lots of flowers and leis and all of that so I just still need to find a dress that I think will work for her so it might take a little bit more time so Ralph it's probably gonna change but I just thought for today and for this event this is the outfit that we could go with and it looks like McKay's brother Kona is here and then Makai should also be coming too and okay so his mother I know that they weren't getting along what kind of mother kind of speaking of so he was not getting along with his mother but I think he is realizing after his uncle just passed away King mahaki oh yeah but he he's right behind her okay so he's realizing that his mother doesn't have that much longer to live so if she was trying to patch things up and I mean it's not like him in a mirror ended up together anyway but he kind of wanted to do his own thing I think also his mother realized that she can't control his life even though she really wanted to so I think she is trying to apologize to Makai Makai is forgiving her so they're on speaking terms now McKay's brother Kona I don't know where he is now oh there he is okay his brother Kona he's been dating Amira's cousin and ladies or not ladies Sudhir well yeah lady Sudhir is sister Aurora for a really long time but they haven't gotten married yet so I think they are going to be getting married very soon and they're probably going to be moving too soon Lonnie and then Ezra which is the oldest sister of the three out of Azra Aurora and sadirah she's already married and she actually has a kid and they haven't showed him to you guys yet so I will I'll show them to you guys at some point in this episode I actually really need to start doing some matchmaking and baby-making because I have a lot of Sims who are adults who are not married yet just because I haven't gotten the chance to actually like marry them and match them up and then make them have kids and everything so I need to do that because Leigh Lana's cousin Aleeah she is able to get married soon I have to figure out who she'd be good with and then Corinne's older brother Wyatt I had never got him married to anybody so I really need to do that you know what I actually just looked it up and a pair it is tradition that was introduced by the islands by Western missionaries it says where it followed a centuries-old tradition Tonga right involving the ritual drinking of kava by the new king it just says king not Queen but together with the receipt of dozens of cooked pigs and baskets of food so that's what we're doing basically that's the tradition that I'm following and it works perfect cuz we have cava I had them make Pig I'm pretty sure or pork I had to make pork adobo which is pig so I was actually pretty close I was like wow maybe I should look this up but then I looked it up and I was like I was right so this is the Sewell Ani palace whoa whoa okay this is the zoo ami palace throne room so I'm going to have Queen Leigh Lana she's going to grab a drink whoa it's like a secret room back here I actually never realized this until now lalana is okay where are you going clay Lana is now drinking the kava and she is our queen you guys this is so exciting I love having just like a celebration of things and staying positive and obviously she misses her father I think her father and her mother raised her really well she was also an only child she's not spoiled at all and she's just very confident and she is comfortable with herself and she knows what she's doing so I just think her parents raised her really well and then we have a mirror here too I played around with some of her outfits I think she looks really pretty I'm still trying to put her in less black clothing but I just found this one and I thought it was beautiful so I was like she has to wear this alright but it is now like 5:00 a.m. so we should probably end this here and here we have Samaria and Makana I oh gosh okay we can sorry we can see up Samaras dress I did not mean to do that anyway but really cute brother and sister they're here someone in the last episode also said that Samaria if she had her father's tail like that would be so cool and I think she would I think she'd have the red tail I know it's really dark but Leilani and Dean are now talking after everyone has gone home and they've said their goodbyes to everybody and I just think Dean is talking to her and just congratulating her and saying how proud he is of his wife and everything he's a really good father and a really good husband and I know he messed up with his sister and everything who by the way they still haven't found yet so I'm sure we will hopefully see them in another so we're about to go to Prince Jabari so he can plan his proposal for Amira but I do want to show you really quickly oh gosh she's wearing this little like hoodie figgus adorable so this is Lord Winston which is Ezra and Derick or Jaden sorry wait Oh Derek is Derek his brother Derek is not his brother whom I thinking of that's named Terry anyway she's married to Lord Jayden definitely thought his name was Derek's that's awkward but yes they have a kid his name is Lord way Oh husband just died he'd never realized that until now well and it's the one who carries the title of March Enosh so her daughter doesn't actually get that name now that her father has passed away but I didn't realize that until now so that's sad she should be she should be a elder by now she was a good amount younger I think then Cora and Henry but I don't think she was that much younger than King horik or King Henry and Queen Cora before we get to the proposal I'm just kind of like thinking out loud and telling you guys some like little story things that I think I think because Bellatrix she was I mean she as a kid she was always so active and she's still very active now she's actually really muscular and really built I feel like she might have an interest to join the military which I think would be really cool I mean she wouldnt be able to do that so she's young adult anyway but I just think that would be really cool I just wanted to point that out I also think as we haven't seen the Oasis Springs royal family in a while I think they are oh wow they're still on vacation they're still gone they aren't just like having their relaxing moments and I do have someone in mind for Arya and I don't think the Oasis Springs royal family I don't know hey it doesn't seem like the type to be interested in like making sure that our kids are an arranged marriage and all that but I don't know cuz technically I guess her in Phillips was an arranged marriage and then Naas parents was an arranged marriage - but like that didn't turn out well at all because her father had a ton of a fascinating film each other so much there one of my favorite couple but anyway I have someone in mind for her who is not a prince but he is from a noble family so I will show you guys them in the future you guys will get to meet them soon we are now at the Selva Dorado Royal Palace actually I think this is one of the only that we've played from the selvedge rata family but I wanted to do this because I want Jabari to propose to Amira and I'm so excited so I did mention in the last episode that it looked like King Henry didn't have that much longer to live but then I thought about it and I realized because he or I play on the long lifespan so even though it looked like there wasn't that much longer it's actually still quite like a good amount of time that he has but I still want Jabari and Amira to get oh I forgot that Prince Adric I need to change this outfit so I'll do that soon but yeah I still want to bar a to propose to America get married I do is he pointing the telescope okay that's fine but I do think that maybe is Ora has still been trying to talk to Jabari because yes or she asked Yubari if they could be friends and she's been trying to contact him but he is not letting her or like talking to her at all really I think just because he's focused on this proposal right now and he doesn't want his aura to mess with his head or anything like that I think he's gonna wait till after he proposes to talk to her I think he is going to tell her that he will be friends with her just because they have such a history and we know that she can do a lot of damage but I don't think Jabari like quite realizes that yet I think that he's smart enough to realize that he should wait until he proposes to Amira until he talks to his ARA again but I am going to have Jabari go to windin burg because I think that Jabari knows that how much family means to Amira so I think that he wants to propose to her in front of her family I actually already have a Meera's wedding dress picked out and I'm so excited and then I realized I was like oh my gosh I still have her wearing black and like dark colors you know I don't even care for her wedding and I know like maybe I should go against tradition with her but I'm obsessed with her wedding dress and it comes in white so I'm going to be letting her wear white for her wedding know what I'm actually wondering if I should just plan a small event with her family so oh wait planned social event I can't plan a social event if I'm not greeted well okay all right he has been greeted so I think I'm going to just plan like a small I guess breakfast slash lunch slash brunch party okay so we have most of Amira's more just like closer family here like her on and her brothers and sisters and her father obviously and everyone so I owe you I I don't know if Callens here I hope he's here alright Callens here I just transported him here so now everyone all the important people are here so for a little brunch we have almond macaroons which i think is adorable what is this little package thing on here Oh someone was making fried tilapia okay alright and Jabari is talking to a mirror and oh it looks like people are sad I'm pretty sure it's because they knew King mahaki I think that might be what the mood lets they have our okay so Jabari has asked a bears family to gather in this room I don't know if I'm gonna be able to get the whole family to stay here but I'm certainly going to drive Jabari sitting next to a mirror now I'm going to have him get up and propose cuz it looks like the whole family seems to be staying here so oh no no King Henry don't miss this come back I do really love that Jabari knows how much family means to Amira and that he's like totally on board with that and he's a pretty close to her family too because I was also really important is that whoever she marries loves when did Berg as much as she does loves her Kingdom and her family as much as she does so I think Jabari is really good for her because he's all about family too and Amira really loves his brother and his nephews and his sister-in-law too so I think that they're all going to get along really well I do think that Amira probably should spend a little bit more time in salvadora with Jabbar ease family just to kind of get closer to them and get to know them a little bit more so I'm sure she'll do that as well so Jabari is now proposing to Amira in front of her whole family you guys oh this is so sweet oh my gosh so they are now officially engaged I'm so excited you guys I'm so excited for their wedding oh my gosh I have to figure it out their wedding it probably is going to be in a few episodes just because I need to prepare for it but they're going to get married and they're gonna have kids and then Amira I can see her have a child I'm so excited for their child their children are gonna be beautiful then I'm just excited because I think that King Henry is going to be able to come to her wedding I really hope these gets to stick around for her child so you can see another grandchildren of his episode here so in the next episode we'll get to a course iam your and you've already planning for the wedding and then we'll get to pay attention to some of the other Royals as well so if we'll do all that in the next episode but if you enjoyed this make sure you hit that like button and I will see you guys in the next video bye [Music]

Haindl Book Release! Hermann Haindl: Life - Art - Tarot
hi this is Fortune book holds of not fortuneschool.com and I'm here to make another video for you today and this is about the book that I've been working on for most of the summer it's a beautiful book about the Hermann Handel tarot so let me sit back for just a moment and apologize for the long delay between my last video on the history of the lenormand and its images which I made in February and I think you all saw that and then I went back to working on the Kipper book I had already been working on and then I got the opportunity to do a last edit on this beautiful book of the Hermann Handel to row so this uh book you know has been underway for seven years and it the work on it was pause briefly due to the artist's untimely death in 2011 but it does include a number of essays by people who knew him including his widow America handle several critical appraisals by people who are you know who are well known in Germany including the curator of the playing card Museum in altenberg Germany and then of course it has the beautiful text and meanings of the of the cards themselves of the tarot cards themselves by eminent tarot author Rachel Pollock who was a close friend of handles uh for many years so let's go ahead and sort of just take a look at this beautiful coffee table art book which I had the great privilege to work on this summer and it's really a gratifying moment for me to see it released I know that you will enjoy it and I do have to say quite honestly it is a must-have for every serious tarot collector everyone who's interested in Hermann Handel's art everyone who's interested in the post-world War II period and everyone who's interested in Fantastical surrealistic or even in magical realistic art because it has so much sort of universal spirituality embedded in it if you are a metaphysical person who has an interest in a wide range of spiritual forms Native American Hindu Jewish Nordic you know even the E King taoism some Buddhism it's all in this deck these are all experiences that Herman Handel had in a culturally appropriate manner not as some kind of cheap spiritual tourist but out of his own inner need and I'll talk about that in just a moment so the book comes you know shipped in a cardboard box I've opened it it already to spare you the trouble of watching me struggle with you know the cardboard and the scissors and this is what the book looks like let's just get right down to it you can see it is humongous it's a big beautiful coffee table art book a very hot quality it is paperback it's not a hardback book it has more than 500 illustrations not only of Hermann Handel's art and paintings but also pictures of himself Through Time his family the towns that he lived in and things that were important to him so um you know it's just a fascinating book that tells you so much about as the title says his life his art and of course his Tarot deck so let me just go ahead and when you get this book there is the promotional flyer this is in fact an opus Magnum this is in fact a Masterwork this is an amazing book you'll love it when you see it it's so beautiful and then it comes with this beautiful numbered print of handle I don't know if you can see that it's a beautiful beautiful print of a colored pencil drawing of Handel himself as the fool so that was a major um theme in Hermann Handel's life you know I I am a fool you know ich bin einar so let's talk about how that came to be you know Hermann Handel uh came from an artistic family uh you know he was born in Berlin but he spent most of his life in the German state of Hessa around Frankfurt as I said his parents were artistic and he himself had an artistic streak which he displayed very early as a child so he was sent to art school and then he was even apprenticed as a youth into the Frankfurt theater to become a scene painter where you know he learned to paint the beautiful and elaborate backdrops for great German plays he was most famous perhaps for his uh staging and setting of Wagner um and you know he did many other place he also did experimental works of art such as sound poetry and many other things then he also combined that with of course his painting work so let's talk about how that came to be you know Herman Handel had been working as an apprentice painter in the theater and an art school for several years when at the age of 17 he was drafted forcibly into the Nazi army and he was sent to the Russian front as Cannon fog fodder to basically die I mean let's just be very honest about that you know nowadays we would call such a person a Child Soldier right and this was essentially Hermann Handel's position you know he had grown up inside the tragic and horrific Nazi system and then he was you know shipped off to die in the winter in Russia and you know that wasn't obviously a horrible horrible thing and an abuse of you know a just a total abuse it's so horrific we can't you know even discuss it the many horrible and awful things that Hermann Handel saw there on the Russian front uh you know genocides in the woods uh he and him his own uh Unit were you know under fed underclothed they were starving they were freezing to death they were just exposed there you know as just no more than as I said you know cannon fodder human blockades to slow uh the Russian effort and finally when the Russians did overrun his unit and his line Hermann Handel deserted he fled he went through the forest and he had Many Adventures trying to escape the Russian troops and to stay alive because of course if he had been caught he would have been shot on site right even though he you know he's only 17 right so uh he has Many Adventures there he hides in the woods he hides in a farmhouse he barely escapes cap captures several times times both by Russian troops and by you know retreating Nazi troops then finally he is in fact caught by the Russians and he is in fact about to be shot when his life is saved by a Russian Jewish doctor I mean so that's obviously a profound and mind-blowing experience for him that you know made all the scales fall from his eyes uh he was taken prisoner in a Russian camp where he was for several years four years five years uh obviously the horrors and abuses of uh the Russian communist prison camps we don't even have to talk about right those are well known once his art Talent became known to the Russians he was forced to stay alive by drawing communist propaganda for them so think about his situation right he had grown up um you know propagandized as a as a child by the Nazi regime you know and his art and his work in the theater he had to conform to the horrible uh repulsive Nazi dictates so he's drawing one kind of propaganda there and then he's forced to go to the complete opposite side to the Russian communist propaganda right with it shows him the hollowness of ideology and the horrible things the terrible abuses that he had seen and himself experienced right left him in a profound state of post-traumatic stress disorder and he understood that these kinds of of totalitarian ideologies were not the solution for Humanity and had left him deeply scarred so when he's finally returned to Germany you know he's struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder and he decides that he will use theater art and spirituality to try to heal himself and try to come to terms with the things that he has done that he has seen that he's responsible for and that Humanity as a whole continues to be responsible for his time also gave him a deep appreciation for environmentalism and he became very active in the German green party and did a lot of work on conservation and environmentalism and you know we should mention that as well so uh here's the book again here's the beautiful covers let me show you that now let's go straight to the quality of these uh cards you know the cards themselves are influenced by the many different spiritualities that Hermann Handel um you know initiated or Apprentice himself to he's not some cultural tourist right he's not slumming and appropriating other people's cultures he actually goes and he lives with the Native Americans he becomes very close to several people in the Lakota Sioux he participates in the Sundance fully right um he also then goes to India right he uh goes even to Israel in a profound moment um and he you know he tries to you know reconcile himself and all of humanity around him in this you know post-world War II period where where he understands that all of mankind line needs profound healing and a form of Salvation a Salvation that can't come from outside but has to come from an inner work and a complete revolution of Consciousness and so he goes to these different spiritual Traditions um you know you even see elements of Buddhism you see elements of the iching of taoism in these cards right and he presents his life's work all wrapped up in the tarot as a total work of art where he wants to show you the elements that he has used and fused together and melded together in an authentic way to present you with a tool that worked for him to change his Consciousness so that you too can use it to do your own healing and to participate in what he felt was the greater change of Consciousness that Humanity needs in the 20th and 21st centuries so um his painting style you know evolved over time right so he was obviously considering the time that he went to art school was taught a very certain style and then later he evolved a more expressionistic or even focused style here you can see some of his paintings you can see this is a palette knife painting with heavy impasto and it's focused on bright and contrasting colors right but later on he developed some more fluid technique in oil he he becomes obsessed with painting trees right obviously because of his experience in the forest trees are obviously a very profound symbol for him when he was able he bought a house in Tuscany a house that had many very old olive trees and so for him trees talk about the ability to weather anything that comes your way to draw nourishment from the Earth to suffer many indignities scars wounds being struck by lightning attacked by insects at every moment you know struggling to survive and yet you produce these beautiful fruits right the beautiful and useful fruit of the olive the beautiful Olive flowers that give such an incredible scent so um here you can see here is a for example a painting that goes with the empress and here you can see how the painting has been dissected and you can see on one side the German text and also Rachel Pollux and Erica handles comments uh on the cards right so you can see throughout the book how the paintings relate to the tarot cards and you can see there's plenty of details the colors and the printing quality of this book the design of this book is really astonishing and um then when it comes to the major Arcana excuse me here while I flip through there's a there's a lot of pages several pages with all of the paintings and the meanings for every card the minor Arcana gets somewhat less treatment right there's some discussion again of the major paintings that influenced each card look at this this is beautiful this is for the king of Cups right if you like this uh sort of in his watercolor period where he was mixing oil oil paint in oil and then using it like watercolor and mixing it with wax as you can see he's also using drip techniques very modernistic techniques right um and then you can see also how when we get into the court cards and the smaller cards we don't have quite the same detail of the images but you you do have the image and you do have its major symbols and meanings called out here by Rachel again in both English and German and then there's a beautiful section towards the back of the book where you can see how he chose the backgrounds for all of the suit cards from paintings he had made previously and he chose paintings he thought emphasized the meaning or the feeling of the suits and then he added the symbols that he thought were appropriate on top of them and this is included again Hebrew letters runes and in some cases itching diagrams his use of the iching is very unique right he saw the iching not as fitting together so much with the tarot cards but sometimes as commenting on them as completing them as extending them or as correcting them with balance so you can see that he really thought of them I want to use the Greek word talesma which means a ride of completion right and so his choice of how he put the itching to various tarot cards is either an effort to comment on them to complete them and to extend them or if it's a card that he thought you know showed some kind of extreme to balance them he would add what he thought would be a balancing e-chain work the runes are the same way the runes are also very interesting because of his Nazi experience he worked very hard to redeem uh Nordic culture and these Nordic uh these Nordic ideas from the abuse and Corruption of the Nazi ideology and he wanted to sort of bring those back out as something that could be used again in Universal Consciousness so that you know everyone could benefit from a universal view of all kinds of spirituality without taint right without the taint of these you know abusive horrific vile and repulsive totalitarian ideologies be they left or be they right so um this is just an amazing book in every way I do recommend of course that you you know get a copy of the handle tarot if you don't have one they're still available you can often find them used on Amazon or on eBay to have the cards with you as you read the book is you know really fantastic of course you can also then get Rachel Pollock's two full-length books where she really delves into the cards in deeper detail than is possible here but this is just as I said it's a wonderful book it's a book that absolutely everyone who is interested in Tarot in Hermann Handel in this style of art or in the post-world War II German period absolutely has to have it should be available now on the conicsford urania site tarotworld.com to be ordered and if it's not there yet it'll be up there very soon it may take several weeks to get through to Amazon I think it's up there now for pre-order when it will get to UK and U.S Amazon I'm not so sure that I I think will take several more weeks so that may be to the end of September or early October I don't really have a a time frame on that and I'm sorry about that so do just do keep checking in and looking for the book handle life art tarot so again thank you so much if you have any questions about the book or any questions about the handle to row please don't hesitate to ask me on social media I hope you really enjoyed watching uh this video I hope you got a great sense for the range of information that's in the book from all the various authors as they talk about the experiences of Herman Handel and what he means in different contexts of German art of German theater of spirituality of his goal to develop an environmentally based Universal Consciousness for the 20th and 21st century um you know all of these things are all wrapped up in this book plus of course it's just beautiful to look at so please don't hesitate to ask me any questions and I hope to make another video for you soon thanks so much and have a great day

They Walked The Earth 2 Million Years Before Us!!!
have you ever stopped and thought about the humans that lived before us they walked the same Earth breathed the same air and faced the same challenges as we do today but their way of life was so different from ours the earliest humans called Homo erectus lived around 2 million years ago they were the first to leave Africa and explore other parts of the world they were hunters and gatherers relying on their wits and strength to survive in a harsh environment the homo erectus people lived as hunter-gatherers meaning they relied on hunting animals and Gathering plants for food they lived in small nomadic groups and used basic tools and weapons to hunt and gather their food they were the first human species to leave Africa and spread to other parts of the world such as Asia and Europe they lived in a variety of environments from tropical forests to cold Plains and had to adapt to their changing surroundings Homo erectus lived approximately 2 million to 1.5 million years ago and were the first species of human to show evidence of using fire overall the lifestyle of homo erectus was centered on survival and adaptation in a harsh and challenging environment after Homo erectus several other species of humans evolved including homo heidelbergensis Homo neanderthalensis and finally Homo sapiens or modern humans with each new species came new advancements and Technologies some of the most notable Innovations include the development of stone tools early humans including Homo erectus used simple stone tools for hunting and Gathering over time these tools became more sophisticated with the creation of hand axes Cleavers and other specialized tools for different tasks fire the use of fire was a major turning point in human history it provided warmth light and a way to cook food allowing early humans to survive in new environments the discovery of agriculture agriculture was a major technological breakthrough that allowed early humans to settle down and form permanent communities this led to the development of civilizations including the ancient Egyptians Sumerians and Chinese the invention of the wheel the wheel was invented around 3500 BCE and revolutionized transportation and commerce it allowed Goods to be transported more efficiently and opened up new possibilities for trade and exploration the rise of metalworking one day A Tribe stumbled upon a strange Shiny Rock they discovered that it was a type of metal and that it was much stronger and more durable than Stone they began experimenting with it melting it down and shaping it into useful tools and weapons they soon realized that metal working was a game changer the tribe's new found ability to make stronger and more versatile tools quickly caught on other tribes began to trade with them eager to get their hands on the new tools and weapons trade routes were established and metalworking became a valuable skill that was passed down from generation to generation as metalworking spread it revolutionized Human Society with stronger tools early humans were able to construct more elaborate structures such as buildings and fortifications they were also able to mine for minerals and extract valuable resources from the Earth metalworking allowed for the growth of new Industries such as blacksmithing and Metallurgy and the rise of new trades such as armors and metal workers the rise of metalworking was a critical step in human progress it allowed early humans to create new technologies build more advanced societies and take control of their environment in new and exciting ways and the legacy of metalworking continues to this day shaping our world and the way we live in it these are just a few examples of the many technologies that have emerged since the time of homo erectus each new discovery and invention has built upon the work of those who came before allowing humans to continue to advance and evolve over time as time went on humans evolved and developed new technologies and ways of life the invention of agriculture around 10 000 years ago was a major turning point in human history allowing us to settle down and build civilizations and yet despite all the advancements we've made we still have so much to learn from the humans that came before us their wisdom strength and resilience can Inspire us to be better and do more

talk to you about the keys that sustains open Heaven the keys that sustains open Heaven you know we have been we have been praying for open Heaven upon us and Open Heavens make a difference in a man's life when Heaven is open upon a man's life Grace is poured upon his life I pray that Grace will always be upon your life the absence of Grace is disgrace the absence of Glory is shame when Grace covers you you are made old but when the Garment of Grace is removed is what is called nakedness that is what happened to hadam in the Garden of Eden he enjoy intimacy with God heaven was opened upon him he did not need to struggle everything yielded to him of their own accord but when Grace was removed when the glory of the Lord departed he was afraid and he became he was naked and he became afraid God will cover your nakedness that is why Jesus Christ died that all of us will be covered with the garments of his grace and I pray Grace will work for you you will never lack Grace in your life in the name of Jesus when Heaven is opened Upon A man it is God's grace a man that has Grace is a carrier of favor when a man doesn't have Grace he will labor labor I pray that you will enjoy favor of God in the name of Jesus let us go into the scriptures in the Book of Matthew chapter 16 and we read from verse 13 to 19 Matthew 16 we read from verse 13 to 19 I hope you guys are ready for me this morning thank you good yes I like I like that they are really ready this morning I shouldn't be calling last week I thought he was high but he wasn't high he was they are all they were they are trainees so it was a traines that was on on duty so the teenagers are on train they're training the teenagers so God bless their soul so I hope I don't know who's there today but make sure you are on point this morning so we take it from verse Matthew 16 from verse 13 all the way to 19 we're going to 19 let's read together church when Jesus came into the coast of ceria Philippi he asked his disciples saying whom do men say that I the son of man am and he said some say that thou art John the Baptist some Elias and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets he said unto them but who say ye that I am and Simon Peter answered and said Thou Art the Christ the son of the Living God and Jesus answered and said unto him blessed are thou Simon by junah for Flesh and Blood are not revealed this unto you but my Father which is in heaven Verse 18 and I say also unto thee that thou art Peter and Upon This Rock I will build up my church and the Gates of Hell shall not Prevail against it verse 19 and I will give unto thee that Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven and whatsoever thou shall bind on Earth shall be burn in heaven and whatsoever thou shall lose on Earth and shall be loed in heaven may the Lord bless the reading of his holy word in Jesus mighty name what we see here is the promise of God that if you know who I am because the question is said who do people say I am some say Elias some say Jeremiah some say one of the prophets and they now asked who do you say I am and Peter answered Thou Art the Messiah the Christ the anointed one the Son of God and he says flesh and blood has not revealed this unto you but my Father which is in heaven flesh and blood so the first thing I want us to have a clear understanding that in the battles of life in the battles of Life the Bible says we rest not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers and spiritual and it says I will give unto you the king PE we need peys I will give unto thee the keys of heaven so that whenever you are wrestling you will not wrestle against flesh and blood but you will use the keys of heaven so that whenever you bind heaven will respond accordingly and whenever you lose heaven will respond accordingly in the name of Jesus Keys means that God says he will give us the power of access and Authority the power of access and Authority both in the physical and the spiritual because he talking about that when you make a decree in the Physical Realm the spiritual realm will respond to you according to what you decree so heaven will respond to you let me say this the Earth you know when the when God when God to create they said the um in the beginning he said there was a void and there was emptiness there was a what a void and emptiness but that was in the beginning but afterwards there's no void anymore and there's no emptiness there is ownership there is no property there is no land in this world that somebody would not lay a claim on to there is no Island there's no land you will see let me use an example we in United Kingdom there's a there's a a space um is called gibr it's like a little island and from the United Kingdom the government of United said that SP belong to US GI it's a little island I mean I've been there it's like a rocky place but they have owned the place there's an Island right now that um I don't know what it's called but uh the Chinese are building some some stuff on it but it's very close to Taiwan but the Chinese are claiming that that place belong to them even the seeds have been divided it's ownership you can't there is no land in this UK you want to go and say you want to go and build your tent you are homeless and you say you oh this land is empty I want to go and just clear the place somebody will say you are trespassing every land every space there's no void there's no emptiness there is ownership there's no ownership people have occupied and that's why sometimes we see was you know the um when the United Kingdom was fighting against um Argentina you know they were fighting what which which land were they fighting over Faulkland Island they were fighting over Faulkland Island look at what is happening in Israel today they are still fighting over that that land they still fighting over that land everybody is fighting for something everybody is fighting for for something you are fighting to own your own as well the property that belongs to you is in somebody's hand right now but you have to what possess it and God says he will give you what the keys you know and when we are talking about ownership when we are talking about ownership the Bible say the health Belongs to the Lord and the fullness thereof the world and they that in it there is so even in the natural world you know sometimes we I remember thaty Gio was thatd GI was talking I mean was no no it was not that Gio was that Gio son that was tell was telling us about his story that when he told his father that he bought a house so the father came to bless the house and when the father said said okay so when where is the de for the property he said I haven't got the de yet uhh they said but you said you bought it he said yes sir he said uh it's mortgage you don't own it you said I should come and bless he said it doesn't belong to you now has to explain to this father that this is the system here but in truthful I mean you know in Nigeria we buy that's a system over there we buy cash down so there's what is called ownership you know some of us will get mortgage my house my house my house the truth is it doesn't belong to you it belongs to who the bank until you pay and God is interested in ownership Kingdom ownership so that we will have authority because you can't you don't have authority until you have ownership and that's why the Bible say we should pray that his kingdom will come as it is in heaven let it be that do dominion and God will give us Dominion in the name of Jesus so one of the things is that when Heaven opens upon a man and God's grace is upon that man whatever it touches will prosper he will flourish that man will be blessed and that's what God says blessed is the man that WTH not in the councel of the ungodly nor standed the way of s and SE the seat of the he shall be like what a tree that is planted by the rivers of water and in a season he will do what bring forth you will bring forth fruit in the name of Jesus your labor will not be in vain God will favor you in the name of Jesus I said God will favor you in the name of Jesus you will be a carrier of favor in the name of Jesus when God favors a man everything work for him God will make everything to work for you second Peter chapter 1:3 second Peter 2 Peter chapter 1 verse 3 quickly it says according as his divine power had given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness God has given us to us he's given us divine power according as his divine power he had given unto us what all things that pertain unto to life and godliness through what the knowled that's the key through the knowledge of him that had called us to what to glory and virtue through the knowledge of him that has called us to what so God has called you to what to Glory your life will be glor GI ified when you when your life is glorified God is glorified you will not be ashamed you will never fail in life in the name of Jesus God says he wants you to be the head you will never be the tail God says he wants you to have dominion you will not be dominated you will not be oppressed you will not be enslaved God will deliver you from every form of captivity the Lord will deliver you he will show you the knowledge he will give unto you the Keys of the Kingdom that every prayer that you pray you will receive answers to your prayer in the name of Jesus so and this is the problem that we we most time face how do we access what God has blessed us with if you don't don't have a key you can struggle ignorantly to enter into a place you can struggle to possess a property a business you know when Jacob was going to possess his um reward in the house of labor God has to reveal something to him that he need to makes like a pattern of all the ship and something that they have pattern that it belongs to him and that way he was able to possess so that all his labors in the house of Laban was not in vain and God will reveal to you what you need to know let's let me use quickly use an example in Exodus 15 Exodus 15 I just want to show you something here Exodus 15 verse let's take it from verse 23 let's take it from verse 23 it says and when they came to Mara they could not drink of the Waters of of Mara for they were bitter therefore the name of it was called Mara you know sometimes in life we go through challenging periods and sometimes it's bitter bitter experiences that's what he's saying there bitter experiences have you been there before even David said there was a time I was I was walking was all I see was I was in the valley I saw what the shadows of what of death until you confront Giants in life a man can never see it's a man until he overcome his GI you go through experience where you are shaken that only you know that only God can bring you out you have no power you have no strength and you have to rely on God that is what happened there they came to a place they were thirsty they were tired they found water but they s story is that the water is bitter the experience the taste of the in their mouth they couldn't drink because it was bitter what would they do this sometimes you feel like sometimes we feel empty and what did the people do verse 24 and the people murmured against Moses and saying what what shall we drink you know every time you m against God you are not mming against Moses every time you complain sometimes you know we don't look at ourselves we always find somebody to blame what has Moses done wrong here was it not test himself Moses is not God the best of Moses is still a man the Bible did not said God we should put our faith in in the man of God or put your put your faith in any man any man David says if he has put his trust in men he will be afraid but he said I will fear no evil for thou art with me the people mmed against Moses saying what shall we drink verse 25 let's read on verse 25 and they Cried unto the Lord Moses cried onto the Lord and the Lord did what showed him a tree what the Lord revealed to him is a key every problem has a solution there is no problem in life that doesn't have a solution every problem but when we looking for the solution where do you look we tend to look in the wrong places they were mming against Moses but Moses knew is God what did he do he cried he cried onto the Lord and what did the God God he showed him a tree that when he had cast into the waters the waters became sweet God can turn your bitterness into sweetness is the same God is the same God yesterday today and he Remains the Same what he did for Moses he can do for me and you he's still God he never changes and God Almighty will answer you he showed him a tree and he cut that tree he threw it into what was bitter and it became so when the word gives you lemon turn into what lemon Le the water became sweet for every problem there is what a key there's a solution for the sake of time let us examine some of the keys to sustain open heaven because it's one thing to open Heaven it's another thing to keep it open it's one thing to open it's another thing he said the door that I have opened no man can shut it but we must keep it open so the first key we are going to look at is the key of Love The Key Of Love you know love is not just um an adjective or what you call or n or what you whatever you want to call it Love is a personality the Bible say God is love that's who he is God is love and that's what he wants us to be to be in love he said the greatest commandment is to love what love the Lord your God with all your heart your soul your mind and also to do what love your neighbor as what as yourself that means you must be Lov so for you to love somebody you have to love yourself and the way you can love yourself is to love God if you don't know God you cannot never know yourself is the truth if you don't know God you can never know your yourself let me know you more and more when I know you have found I want to know you more and [Music] more when I know you I [Music] no you no one no one beside you I want to know I want to know you more and more when I know you Lord I [Music] be you know when we are talking about love the best place where we can examine love is in a marriage is in a marriage because why do we marry we say we do what we love each other and the Bible says when we marry the two shall not become the the two shall become what one so love unites but we cannot remain one if we don't know each other he said for this reason shall a man leave his father's house and shall do what and cleave this is the difficult thing about marriage two individual people coming together and they said they want to become one and they want to cleave but they can never cleave until they are united and the only way to be United is to die to flesh but we if we go into a marriage with the flesh oh my God it will be bitter and that's why we have seen marriage fail because everybody went they said I mean I've heard the word that marriage is contractual I'm in for what and you are here for but we cannot fulfill because as long as we remain one plus one it will always be two people but God doesn't want two people in a marriage you want what one and the only way the Bible says love is sacrificial you cannot go into a marriage unless you die to flesh I suffered I'm telling you I suffered see my hair became gray all the white is because I like wisdom I lack what wisdom until I learn how to humble myself somebody say the spirit of unity is humility until you humble yourself I wish I had known that God has broken me down early I would have looked younger than this it's true I suffered I'm telling my story and she will had our story because we were constant ly striving against one another constantly we are too what should I call it to e Ed people she will not gree I will not gree she will maintain and I mean when we fight listen there's no shadow of a angaza fire for fire yeah but what was that ignorance it's not that we don't love each other it's not that we were cheating on each other but we cannot just agree and the Bible say can two work together ex said they be agreed but as long as we remain in the flesh we cannot agree because we will not allow the spirit of God and we pay the price we pay the price every price so I'm I'm speaking to somebody the first thing is love the first key you cannot give what you don't have you cannot give what you don't have don't deceive people come to church husband and wife they don't talk to each other we can pretend but can we fool God can we fool ourselves we all know the truth God is love and God you want to be like him Jesus is Love with we need to forgive one another I mean when Jesus Christ was teaching his disciples he said if you don't forgive God will not forgive you so this spirit of offense is because of Flesh and pride you know pride and arrogance I will not g we will go months without talking to each other but when wisdom comes when the spirit when we allow the spirit of God then healing comes and that's why it's very important that when you know God when you love God you will love your neighbor and the first place to test that love is a marriage it's in the home Proverbs 18 Proverbs 8:17 he says I will love those who love me Proverbs 81 17 I said I love them that love me and those that seek me early shall so if you don't love God God says he word not he says I love them that love me so so if we don't love God God will not do what and if you don't love God which take us to second second um key he said those that seek me early shall find me that is second key seeking the kingdom making God a priority Matthew 63 seek you first because when you love God you will seek him seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all other things shall be so he saying make God and seeking him because in his presence you will find councel you will find joy you will find peace you will find strength you will find answers you will find solution you will find direction there is nothing I mean listen where is the best place even when you come and there's worship going on it seems like like heaven it's like it's like I know I when when when when when there's deep worship going it's like when Peter when Jesus Christ was on the Mount of um Transfiguration I said don't let us go anywhere anymore let us just build a temple and just I just wish I can be in the presence of God because there's peace there's joy there's righteousness there is strength and as the heaven is opened upon you this morning God will give you peace God will Gladden your hearts God will strengthen your faith as you seek him you will find him God will give you the the the oil of Joy the oil of gladness the Heart of Stone will become the heart of Flesh it will pour out the pain and bitterness and offense and it will cleanse you it will make you as old make you as white as snow will make you all you know when you seek God your faith is built upon the solid rock when you are in God's present there's a conviction that comes upon you you know in 1 Samuel chapter 30 David was in a painful place when he lost his wife and all the families that he left David asked for the effort and he saw the face of God the Bible say David strengthened himself in what in the Lord God turn his weeping into Joy God gave him strength from his weaknesses God wiped away his tears and God gave him a key he said pursue you will overtake and you will recover all go that's a key God gave him a solution to a problem he didn't know where he went he didn't know the direction but when he was before God God showed him the direction that he need to go but what he did was he sought God he made that a priority he was not going all over the place looking for them he sought God first and God directed his path in the name of Jesus the last last key we're going to look at I know there are many keys but I'm just using this is the key of gratitude the key of what gratitude the key of gratitude let us look at Luke 17: 11 to 19 you all know the story very well but let us read it together Luke Chapter 17: 11-9 this is the story about the 10 lepers the story about the 10 lepers let's read it together and it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee and as he entered into a certain Village there met him 10 men they were lepers which stood a far off verse 13 and the Liv lifted up their voices and said Jesus Master have mercy on us and when he saw them he said unto them go show yourselves unto the priest and it came to pass that as they went they were cleansed obedience and one of them when he saw that he was healed turn back and with a loud voice glorify God and fell down on his face at his feet giving him thanks and he was a Samaritan an unbeliever verse 17 and Jesus answering said were there not 10 cleans but where are the nine 18 there are not found that return to give glory to God except this stranger verse 19 and he said unto him arise go thy way thy faith ha made thee whole you know it takes a humble heart to be grateful it takes what a humble heart to be grateful sometimes God when God will do something for us and we just take it for granted and we just do what move on like the nine nepers they came and they were they can even not come near him they were not worthy they stood a far off and they gave them an instruction Go and show yourself to the priest as they were going they were healed what did the night n do oh sah sah whatever will be will be but the one who knew that if he was not for the Lord if he was not for this man who has delivered him from his leprosy and he knew that to receive the complete healing he needs to be grateful even though they have received the physical healing which is the leprosy but there's another healing which is the foundation the spiritual healing he went back he fell at his feet he started to worship Him and Jesus Christ says were there not 10 of you where are the others you know what they said in my Lang they if you cannot give thanks to God you are a deor if you canot show gratitude you are a deor and do you know what there's nothing you have have achieved in life if it was not for God there is nothing you are in life that God has not made you there are people better than you it came back in every situation the Bible says give thanks that situation you are complaining about somebody will give thanks for it you think your situation is bad let somebody give them their own testimony you will know God has been good to you it's always good thing to give thanks to God Psalm 92 verses 1 and two it's a good thing to give thanks unto God Psalm 92 vers one and two you know David in second samel said it's a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord and to sing praises unto thy name oh most high verse two to show forth thy loving kindness in the morning and thy faithfulness every so that from morning to night we should always sing the Praises of God for because he been good and God has been good to us God has been good to you and me Paul and Silas they were locked in prison what were they doing they start Heaven opened upon them in the book of Acts chapter 16 and their Gates were opened the prison door today is Thanksgiving Sunday let me hand with Psalm 67 the book of Psalm 67 verse 5 to 7 Psalm 67 it says let the people praise thee Oh God let all the people do what praise thee Mark that word then very important it is when they have praised the Lord then shall the Earth yield are increase and God even our own God shall do what shall bless us God shall bless us and all the ends of the heart shall fear so when we praise God there's a blessing waiting for you you didn't hear me that that's what the Bible says when you praise God and you give thanks then then shall the Earth yield an increase to you I know there are many people that needs to give thanks this morning that need to testify of God's goodness but the most important thing is that the three keys that I've mentioned out of many keys that you can even think of the key of love the key of seeking the face of God and his kingdom and the key of gratitude if you appli these three keys then heaven will remain upon you he said whatever you bind on Earth the heaven will bind it for you and whenever whatever you lose on Earth heaven will respond accordingly for you so this morning what will you do today how will you respond to the call of God that you should give thanks in everything before I close you are here this morning you have not even given your life to Jesus Christ except the spirit of God is revealed unto you you can never know him it is the deep that call it onto deep it is the spirit that minister to the spirit God is standing at the door of your heart and is knocking and waiting for you to open that door of your heart so that he can come in because you cannot know him you cannot experience his Blessing you cannot partake of this communion if you stay outside of the convent Cen and the Covenant is except a man be born again he can never see talk about enter why don't you open the door of your heart surrender your life so that the king of glory will come because the Bible say in his world there is life and the life is the light of men so if you don't let the light of God shine upon you that Darkness will still Prevail and where there's Darkness there is death because he said in in in in his word there is life and the life is a light so in darkness there is death let the glory of the Lord shine upon you this morning let the Prince of Peace come and enter into your heart let the light that shine upon Saul on the way to Damascus come upon you this morning to Enlighten your heart you have been walking you have been walking in the flesh it's time to walk in the spirit the Lord is here to forgive you is here to blot away your transgression and to make you whole to re your spirit just put your hand upon your chest and said Lord I ask you to come into my life be my Lord and my savior forgive all my iniquities make me whole cleanse me he said thy faith will made the whole your faith in Christ will not fail God will purify your heart and I pray that heaven will be open upon you the promises and the Covenant of God will be established in your life you will not walk alone he will give his angels charge over you they will bear you UPS in their hand you will not Dash your foot

the other just rest on his chest make sure your hands are in his hands God is Dependable hallelujah hallelujah praise the Lord praise the Lord church I think um this testimony is long good a do to be fair um and I it's a bit of a long story but I'll cut it short um before I came here to study in 2020 I remember my dad coming to my room and saying hey if you come to the UK I'm not sure that I can afford your fees I've just sent your brother to school to in the UK so it's very expensive and um somehow he later changed his mind and said okay let's do it and for three years he paid everything and we don't know where that funding came from and I remember he said um if you were coming my own gift to me is you graduate the first class and I said to myself I said good I graduated with a in my first degree how is that even going to happen and I said okay but I know that there were times when I would go to the library and I just wouldn't have the writing I wouldn't know what to put in my essays and I would pray and I found that days when I would go to the library and I would pray and say hey God I don't know what it is that I'm doing but I need you to guide me I could write 2,000 words in one sitting and there were people who would say how do you do it you do it very last minute and you do it but the truth is I don't understand it um but to the glory of God I graduated and I graduated with a first class Hallelujah and I applied for so many jobs and every single thing that I applied for I got so in the end it was more of I would pick which one favors me the best and I am grateful to God I do not have any regrets till now I just just come to tell God thank you praise the Lord thank you for sharing that God bless um I want to just give God glory for it's not about me but it's my place of work so I recently just switched roles completely so most of you know I'm actually a teacher but because of childcare I've had to go into the NHS and I'm working overnights and I'm an administrator and there was one particular night in March um I came into work at 6:00 and I felt like there was a spirit of death just hovering around and I was like like okay I'm going to do a prayor before I start because I'm not comfortable with what I'm feeling and then at about 2:00 in the morning there was this Dad and their mom they just came in um to triage and the mom was just collapsing on the floor and throwing up and I was like oh my gosh what's going on and all of a sudden the alarms were ringing and the doctors were running about and everyone was going into one room and the dad came out shaking and he was like is there anywhere where I can pray and I was like oh my gosh where you want to go and pray it's about a 10-minute walk so if you want to just just sit nearby me that's fine and I know now with work if you start saying can I pray with you there's going to be some issues cuz you don't know who's hearing and so forth but I said to him I'm going to join my faith with yours and I left it like that and we were just there praying to the glory of God the mom must find the baby is fine everything was fine there was no death there was no nothing it could have gone the other way but God was just there and I give him all the Glory Hallelujah praise the Lord praise the Lord Church I want to thank God for all he has done in my life and in my household also want to thank God for KLC also want to thank God for everything he has done in my life he been so faithful and the message today really like touched me so I said to be grateful to God today

said stand up okay we'll just pardon her we'll pardon her let her give her testimony I'm sorry um testimony is always some sort of Shaky Ground for me um but when on spoke I just feel like I need to give um in my job had got to the last stage of my progression and it was to move to a level eight and I kind of checked everyone around in the office I saw that there were like 14 people in my counting before it will be me so so I felt maybe another one year maybe another two years before I move um and then all of a sudden they just put an adver for that job and everyone told me don't it can't be you they can't give you that job but I applied and out of the 14 people I thought that probably they will consider they selected just four of us to go to the interview stage but before doing that someone else who had been in the hub who just got a light to me just said to me there's another rule higher than what you're even thinking about how about apply for that one I'm like he can't be me I even told my friend I told my friend they showed me this rule would you like to apply she was more excited than I am she applied so I didn't have a choice I also applied for that room but the thing that God did is among that four of us there are people there who had four years experience six years I was just joining a place one year I did that interview among those people that I feel like I don't qualify God gave me that r that God was not done with me that particular role I thought was higher that how it doesn't it I can't picture it not only did God give me that second role he also even gave the person that I told to apply for that second role and I just want to thank God because in my thinking we even some people in my office do not understand people don't move to another side of the division that way it takes people six years but God Did It For Me in one year I just want to thank God praise the Lord when it's your time it is your time Hallelujah please prepare let's just

Follow God and God will bless our life - Liberia - Pastor Yip
I like to share what happened yesterday in a service to encourage you to say the presence of God is so clear the point so wonderful okay first because the son of Bishop his name is victory he told me when I was coming to church in a car he said the first day early on he felt like electric current electricity gone through him and then he asked God can be experienced that again we want to be sure and the second thing he experienced that again and so he knew that it was from God and then and I said that's wonderful that you experienced this and I encourage you to keep that anointing keep that strong presence of God and then he also told me from childhood he has missions and but then many people don't believe him so and then I said you know those missions can be very accurate from God can be prophecy for God and you want to develop the gift so that you can receive more accurately the visions and dreams and the words of God and then so I asked him can you share in the service so please share about his experience of Holy Spirit the power Corian like electricity and also about him seeing visions and then I lay hand on him after he finished sharing when I laid on him something happened to him he was he stays still it's like he was in deep thought not you know not responding normally so asking what happened and he didn't answer me and later I asked him he said he saw visions and then he said didn't want to say no visions at that time so we went home and asked him but our I will tell you the bishops later okay and then he after his you know while he was sharing and then I prayed with everyone and thank God but work of God and then people started experiencing the Holy Spirit and one woman saw lights from above shining on me and bishops head that the gaurav got shining on us and then there were other people being moved by the Holy Spirit greatly transferred Holy Spirit and also an earth daughter of Bishop called goodness she was truly out of herself and then she start to speak words of the word saying I am coming back soon Jesus will come back soon be ready and then later while I was preaching a young girl maybe about six seven years old tall Bishop and Bishop Tommy give me a hand me a paper and said that she saw a man with white gown and we asked him asked her later that is Jesus and then she saw people she saw the graveyard and many dead people rise from the dead now that could be could have two meanings what meaning is Jesus is going to revive the spiritual life of many people second it could be the end time when Jesus come back and then people rise him again so I was sharing this yesterday there were many people touched by the Holy Spirit when people were opened when people were hungry so hope you all hungry for God don't be you know having no response no feeling that's what Jesus described the generation he said how can I describe this generation never will say that will play the foot and no one rejoices I never repeated Peter chance no one shows sorrow so Jesus was saying that this generation is like people have no risk to God and I hope you all when you see the work of God and say I want to respond to that I would love God let me tell you even if you have many problems when you repent and love God God who still like you very much in question you don't have to be perfect as I said yesterday even if you have another good whatever you do you love God you polygon your obey God and give a cup of pour water cut is very happy even if you have many weaknesses and you repent and ask God to help you God will still be happy with you so work on what you can do and repent of what you cannot do and then kind is very happy so it's not hard to please stop so you have this part now then you have one person next to you there's some people posing the eyes now I want to really love God really of god and respond to God and I respond to God all the time when I like God all the time and God for blessings upon me all the time so I hope you find it for that beautiful people that do not be without feelings without response but respond to God okay so yesterday in a service it was totally unexpected what happened after victory share and then the whole atmosphere changed and then people were touched by the Holy Spirit they want change in some visions and there were more people who experienced the power of God and then they share how they will change my god and we went in for my ass victory what did you see he saw two persons could a face paint danger one person will die one person will have an accident so I said please call these persons people who come to the home will cancel them and help them to overcome this problem I'm gonna say I'm not going to say who they are I just say what happened so one lady came and she answer how some relationship gap and she said because of the pressure her relationship with God is now very distant so I said to protect you you need to fill up the relationship and God wants to bless you it's not difficult because the girl loves you God cares about you got one two things happen to you and God is full of love even though we have failed anyways we trust in Jesus he'll bless you and then answer what are some problems you are facing where are some sins you are facing because this are not fruitful footballs we gave to the devil this is a brick poison on lights that we gave purpose to the temple to attack and that's why actually two weeks ago someone saw the person died and now Fischer some solid person also so two-person soda the bus is something that has been handled and this person said because the children is so big her and disobey God then they mixed with bad people and she got very angry and so her relationship with God is not good and she has a lot of anger and I asked her okay that's anger help when you're angry will chill do they obey more let me ask you here in your parents are angry with you and yelled at you do you obey more no you become more rebellious so answer this any way that we can have monkeys and guide her to see that one point very pointed the skull of the tutor yes so God loves them God wants to do something but very often the parents and to mind the problems too much to get angry and yell at them and beat them and their actually destroy God's plan but when we live in the grace of God that's why it's important to live in the grace of time then you see each child is very important you are important you're important and God loves yoga wasn't good to great things in your life always say this to attune now say this with me God loves you you are very special God has a wonderful plan in your life I can do crazy things in life do you want to enter this perfect plan of God and watching you do to enter the perfect plan of God do you want to love God more do you believe God is someone who can bless your life do you want to trust in Jesus and feel of a relationship so this away we kind of let them know they are important as I told you you're important you all are important but if you don't respond to God you won't enter the perfect plan but if you respond to God and love God and obey Him and serve in your hand to the plan of God you go higher and higher so then I answer what happened you know what happening to the children because of the children mix with friends went bad therefore she got very angry and unhappy and so answered so anger doesn't help it she said no so I encourage her to tell them God loves the children the more peaceful you are the more you can change them but how can she be careful peaceful we have to let go to some extent when in disobey we cannot take it on our heart but we trust in God God you can do something I just want to follow you and be peaceful and joyful now say this with me I won't remember good relationship with God and of all peace and joy instead of yelling at the children and I love the children more I can change them more energy if I yell at them I cannot change them and in effect our spiritual life so any questions person let go to some extend you you cannot change our children right away but if your children are young we'll just start with when they're young is easier and when you love God with the presence of God when laying on them if we have a good relationship with Ghana and have no equal screw and no sins now of course you say we have some sense but you take care of it right away you take care of it right away take care of negative emotions and thinking and then you have basically pure you can lay hand on the children from childhood they experience the presence of God and then you tell them God is so real did you experience anything they said yes you know yesterday also crimpable child and she experienced a peace - so she the child can experience the peace and then you say God loves you so do you want to obey God and one day God will build you up to be a great person and then if they're willing to build up the relationship every day to pray when the children and you have simple bye my son will children you can bring over one verse and explain to them or Bible story to explain to them and then help the children instead of being angry so she confessed her sin of being angry and asked her also how to forgive I said the key is to the answer and she said endless innocent forgiveness because she can be angry with people easily so an answer okay do you believe that people who hurt you with this person hurt you he has been hurt by many people now say with me people were partners has been hurt by many people before so they are unhappy and so they hurt other people so we have compassion on them so we want to bless them we want to be nice to them we want to forgive them don't want to get angry with them so that's God's Way instead of being angry even though they do something bad to us but if I get angry it won't hurt us right they will hurt us so I want to have compassion and to deal and I answer are you willing so we pray together for compassion on these people and you plus them and forgive them and she was willing to do that and then I answer again what are the sins to have now this since I realized that a number of people here having the sin of fornication of sex before marriage and I file the reason is because it's very expensive to get down here I heard that it costs 150 US dollars to get married to get the marriage certificate and many people don't have that money and something they live together and without marriage and the church cannot have the wedding the Church of the reading for them then but the bishop would get in trouble and the government would get after them so this is the problem of these of the people here maybe don't have jobs when I heard this I asked can the people here work on views on agriculture to have income the bishop said they're significant because the difficulty is no money to lease the land no money to find the homes and the equipment and to dig a well so I told the bishop ok I will go back to my uncle tell me the estimate to have the minimum necessary to have a field to lease a few or agriculture how much does it cost and I'll try to raise the money and send it here to support that so that some people were very poor even though I'm ready to get married will work and have money but it takes time but it traps to grow you pray that the cross control and everybody makes some money then they can find leaves a bigger field and have wall props so that more people can work and have more people hired so that's what you know I can do for this country they might just give you some money this is not gonna solve it long term you have to try some more we have to find a way that people can have income here so I care about you as Jesus here value and afraid that there will be people who are willing to give this money so that is possible for some people to find work here to work on the field so that at least the people can get married together certificate and also you will want to pray that the government and speak to the government the house of the Lord of e of the marriage certificate so that many people who cannot get married because of money that they can get married and then in a hostile ad is it possible for you not to have sex before your marriage you know because fornication is against the will of God and give Satan a football and she agrees to them it's difficult and as I said one of the men disagreed then I also can you say to the man if you agree that we then you cannot stop having sex then our ask you to leave until we are ready to get married but we cannot have sex now we can have fornication so that's to obey God and we want to find ways to solve the problem of the people here so she agrees to them and then when victory pray again she said he said her sins are forgiven so there is new hope for that sister and I want to say to all of you if your life is full of anger frustration and forgiveness fornication adultery any kind of sense of bad relationship with God please repent please come to God and repent and I heard from the bishop that there are over 10 couples here in this church that cannot get marry because so many Hubbard then I would advise you not to have sex before marriage and then you find what is asked us to provide the America our open way and one way to help you when there are other ways that can open our ways if you operate love God together God will be moved God will give you person we seek first the king of God and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you and God can bring prosperity to more volunteers do you want that God is a solution that has to give pastor you is one person who will help but actually is not from our organization because our the decision cannot support you so much we only support mission work we cannot support this is welfare but I'm gonna try to come to some Christians to raise the money for agriculture so that more money can have more people can have many years to serve God and to have marriage and have a normal life and so I when I heard this problem I care about you and love you I want the best to happen to you and I hope you all believe say it together our help is from God when we love God good relationship with God and seek his kingdom Perseus Nina with one more people say we want Jesus to be our Lord and we watch and obey God they serve God that is happy with us right and you pour blessings upon our life and will provide for us and will raise us a higher level the answer is from God the solution is from God I need to trust in God I need to hold on to God every day answer software you believe that so pray for this country pray for the people that we can pray some changes to this society to this country god bless Liberia so what happened is victory pray and then saw that this lady the sins was forgiven and then she set free but she did to fast for three days janab real repentance and really follow God and obey God and then I talked to victory afterwards you have to give of seeing visions let me ask you how many of you have seen visions and also dreams of God not just ordinary jewels but dreams godly dreams or hear from God or have ideas that came from cartelization help okay now if you obey got you here from God more so I talked to victory this is a great gift but it's not greater than other gifts we don't say this is praise the delegates no gift is prettier than others we just want to fill up the church love the Lord we don't say oh people receive prophecy greater than others we don't say that but I told me this is a special gift and heaven it said he was afraid because we saw people couldn't die but I said just now you see how we counsel the person and a person's life is saved then she did not be dying so the pill is not just see people dying but we can save these people from dying and so I said this is wonderful and also the future God can raise you up as a prophet you can fill up the church you can fill up the Christians around you first you can do evangelism you can pray for people and then you know the meats and the power and the tell them and this you will be surprised how do you know my problems and needs and then they can tell the person because jesus knows your needs and let me know so you know Jesus you know your needs you want Jesus to believe in you so that's evangelism - feeling guilty I say this again when you have the prophetic gift and you pray for the people around you the laborers we just either pray yourself and then God reveals to you what labor what thread one family member has certain power and then you go to this person and then you say to this person I pray for you and I will see this message about you and I tell you this message and the person says says yes and then you tell the person what God has vo now first day of the tested many times in the church with Christians to chasten if it is true and any they receive one more accurate messages in order to receive every messages we have to spend more time plane waiting for the Lord and quiet time waiting for the Lord and take care of our sins and worries and anger all this problem and then we can hear from God more equitably and drive out the demons and then they receive angrily and then they can go to this person or when they talk with someone they can sing and and then we sit the message and say their person I receive this message is this true and if the person says is true then we can tell them because God knows the powers so now Tony and so I can tell you and you see that guy is so good do you want believe in Jesus and then Jesus bless you so this is the better the some type of product guilty if you have that filtration that's the first step and the next step you ask for God's blessing on a church and add the receive the message okay certain people have the ticket the problems on how the church can grow and then receive the message when that is used to that these people have the power taken care of and they have sense anger frustration fornication adultery all this problem taken care of and how the church involved and then they can bring growth to the Treasury and the next level is through the different churches and trained people to have comparative and pure profits and to bring revival to the Trish and how to break blessings to the country and also even go international to different countries so we can go one step time if you love God God will raise you up if you just say to God God I want to follow your will you want to follow God's Word yes so I encourage victory he can follow that will and we start to see that there is something great for him and me when he heard this he went and asked him why he went he said this is so new to me that they didn't realize that this gift can be so powerful and when in fact that he went some YouTube let me ask you this morning when you hear that God can do so much and God can bless this country do you want to enter God's plan you want to repent of your anger for your children for your husband and wife to repent of unforgiveness we kind of fornication and adultery or laziness or any kind of sense do you want to repent do you want to say God I want follow your plan and obey you and be used by God to bring blessings to this country because in second particle and 14 when the people were called by my name will humble themselves and pray to me and seek my face and then they will turn away from the sinful ways I will hear them from heaven I will forgive them and I will heal the land so do you believe that God can heal this land when we all come in repentance to God and obey Him and love it he is Almighty God he can do these things my blessings all came from God let me tell you my wife when my first wife died I almost use up all my money but God knows that and loving the person's keep coming until now I think of different nations because God has a plan for each person and wonderful plan and also when I submit to God in this ten years after experience the Holy Spirit God has guided me the tikar of different proverbs to be humble to take care of sins and not even thinking that emotions not to be affected by people how to overcome all negative affect by people then i my life begin to be braced up and go a high level do you want to like to go higher you believe that when you love God God bless you let me ask you how many people here that you say that you will in love God and you've seen blessings in your life that you raise your hand how many people you really love God and you seek up start to bless you financially and in different ways plane crank blessings to you Wow look around raise your hand higher higher people experienced presents like that hold your hands okay so all raise your hand if you have experienced lessons when you obey God would you raise your hand so you experience God's blessing so hope you remember this and continue to love God and obey God and you have blessings more and more so you have experienced God I hope you remember that and don't put it down don't forget and follow God those who say yes Lord I wouldn't follow your perfect plan I'm going to repent of all sets that follow your perfect plan and you raise your hand to God I want to enter your perfect plan and can you stand up to God and pray to God together Lord Jesus compute our sins will be found since of acre unforgiveness and forgiveness a series of distant relationship with you then we don't love you and trust you that we don't love you trust me and

Canadians React to America’s AWFUL Healthcare System (w/ David Doel, DrHeemedOut + Others)
there is a new report by the commonwealth fund and what they find is that um the united states of america ranks dead last in both healthcare outcomes and overall spending when it comes to healthcare in the united states of america now what they say here is that there's a couple of reasons why some systems uh healthcare systems perform better than than ours so they provide universal coverage and remove most cost barriers they invest in primary care systems to ensure that high value services are equitably available in all communities to all people they reduce administrative burdens that divert time efforts and spending from health improvement efforts and they invest in social services especially for children and working age adults now i just want to read a couple of paragraphs from this story because i think that most of us on the panel already know the fundamentals about american health care and how broken it is uh but this is from jake johnson of common dreams who's brilliant by the way um so basically using a range of criteria to evaluate the healthcare systems of 11 countries australia canada france germany the the netherlands new zealand norway sweden switzerland and united kingdom and the united states the commonwealth fund's latest analysis shows that the u.s once again ranks last on access to care administrative efficiency equity and care and healthcare outcomes the loan bright spot for the for-profit u.s healthcare system there is a bright spot according to the new report is in a category dubs care process which includes measures of preventative care safe care coordinated care and engagement and patient preferences so i mean there's some good right there's no question our cruel for-profit health care system is broken representative camilla jayapal chair of the congressional progressive caucus and lead house sponsor of the medicare for all act of 2021 said in a response to the report it's time to fix it jayapal added it's time to guarantee healthcare as a human right it's time for medicare for all so what i want to do and i've done this on the program before i think the very first time i ever spoke with david i asked like what what's it like in canada if you if you need to go to a doctor and i always want to like if i'm talking to someone who doesn't live in the united states i always encourage them to share their experience because i just i genuinely don't believe that our peers in america understand what we're missing um so we'll go to david and then he about your healthcare stories because i think this is really important yeah so the first thing i always tell americans is that i never think about healthcare and that's the biggest benefit of having a single-payer system is you just never think like there's no reason to think about health care unless you need it so and when i need it if i need to go to the doctor i we all get a health card you walk in you show your health card they you know they check the computer you go in and then you go home i think that's the entire process and so it it's it's it and i should be clear here i mean canada ranks second last on that list for good reason we don't cover dental care we don't cover pharmacare home care isn't covered long-term care like retirement homes aren't covered so there are serious gaps in our system for sure but it's because our system doesn't go far enough so in fact bernie's medicare for all plan if enacted would go further than the canadian healthcare system so there's definitely downsides to our system because it doesn't go far enough but just basic you know basic care going to your your your family doctor is a very simple streamlined process i had surgery once same thing i mean it was booked it wasn't a you know a um anything urgent so it was booked three months ahead of time i went on the day i walk in again show my health card they they bring me in had the surgery i came home there's no you know on the phone with insurance companies none of that's going on it's all just covered all free and the only time i ever had to actually pay for health care is is um for prescriptions but they're always i mean at least in in my case they've always been you know minuscule like you know 20 bucks for a month of medication for something but you know other people have had you know worse stories in canada with farming care because they have a lot more to pay for so it's different depending on your experience but um yeah i mean the biggest benefit is you just never think about it yeah i'm curious heme and this is kind of hard to assess but in the event there were you know there was a party if um i don't know uh the liberals in canada they uh proposed an american-based health care system a private model how do you think that would go over in canada even the conservatives here don't push for that kind of model and even in the uk too they can they'll push for like maybe defunding it a little bit but it's so popular here that it and it started on a provincial level and then spread across the rest of the country and it's never looked back since um and it will i don't think it'll ever change uh hopefully fingers crossed i will say um i'll david brought up some amazing things not worrying is a huge one just to give a little insight about my experience so i do cancer research for my phd and and i have family members that are in healthcare and one thing that's very important to point out and to push back on people who are anti-universal healthcare it's to mention that there's still incentive for doctors to make money so how it works is when david shows up to his to the office with his health card i the doctor just the the secretary whatever will scan his card or his code and his number and they will build the government so the doctors are actually private contractors a lot of the time and so they can work as much or as little as they want and make as much or as little money as they want um most of our doctors here aren't actually publicly employed uh employees so here in ontario we have a list that we publish every year called the sunshine list which is like uh people who make over a hundred thousand dollars a year and work in the public sector so it could be like energy workers police officers things like this and very few doctors are actually on this list very very few like radiologists and stuff that are employed by the hospital but other than that most doctors run a private practice so that's the one thing that i think is um is a nice benefit that canada has maybe over the uk because we have we still have the incentivization that people always rip on and say like oh who's going to want to become a doctor right so that's one thing um the other thing i will say is uh like david said i have had the similar uh experience one day i woke up and i had extreme pain in my back i went to the emergency room i got surgery that night so it's not like this long wait time [ __ ] craziest thing in the world like most places in the world they just triage you based on how bad you need care if you show up and you're gushing blood they're not going to be like okay you have to wait seven hours i don't understand this caricature that people make sometimes like and then and i've heard i don't know maybe i've seen i've heard david make this or maybe kyle kalinski where they say in america you triage too you just triage based off of who's got the money or yeah the coverage right and one last thing yesterday on this is as we learn more about medicine we realize how important preventative care and early diagnosis is your outcomes if you get prostate cancer at stage one diagnosed versus stage four diagnosed are are worlds apart right when it comes to mortality rates five year 10-year mortality rates the sooner you can detect these things the better outcomes you have the less it's going to cost the entire system down the line it's much easier to do a quick surgery or radiation on a small tumor versus like multiple rounds of chemotherapy because now the cancer is metastasized all over your body so it's another really important point is the fact that in america right now you have people who will get little bump on their arm or in their breast but they'll be too scared to go to the doctor they'll put it off put it off put it off put it off but no it's not that bad it's not that bad i don't want to pay the copay i don't want to pay the and then it's too late right so that's another massive thing and uh i think i touched on the things i wanted to touch on and i think there was one other thing but i forgot for now yeah it's amazing yeah yeah i love i think that you're like you guys sharing your experiences is really really crucial because i don't know if sarah and donna have the same experiences as me but people are genuinely afraid of the prospect of universal healthcare here people that i've talked to even family members because they feel as if it's you know it's it's foreign first of all right it's literally a foreign concept because we don't have that here but i try to make it more familiar right i talk about uh medicare medicaid like these types of programs that have existed in the united states that are loved um you know if you're a veteran in the united states you kind of have a version of of you know universal health care so trying to like make it seem less foreign and more familiar is important and like getting canadians and british people to weigh in i think is honestly one of the most controversially effective it's so effective yeah good good on you yeah yeah mike i have a story i'd love to share with you to give contrast to this sure so a lot of people don't know about this but when i was a kid i lived in new zealand my dad is a scientist and he was doing research there and so my mom tells me this story and i contrasted it with what happened to her during 2019 christmas and here's here's what happened my mom had one of my siblings in a c-section and not only is everything you know completely paid for at uh you know point of service which means you're not paying anything out of pocket after she had the c-section she was sent home and she was also sent home with a helper that came in every day to help her with certain things move certain things around because when you have a c-section for several months you're not allowed to lift heavy things and so um this is healthcare in new zealand okay healthcare in new zealand now contrasted with this with the united states christmas the day on christmas eve my mom hurt her knee while she was climbing up the stairs and we took her into you know an orthopedic care place and there is a when we go in there the doctor came and looked at it says we need to do an mri and i said that's great there's this huge window there's a big mri machine here i was very happy let's go do it and you know he was like okay let me go get this set up and then they come back 30 minutes later you know how they make you sit in the room forever and ever and they say well the doctor's in network but the mri machine is not what oh i didn't know the mri machine didn't take its licensing test i kid you not i think that was the day i was like you gotta be kidding me because she can't walk she hurt her knees and you know what's crazy you bring up mri machine i i went to a patient's chart like i think two weeks ago you would not believe one patient had 70 different treatments imaging mri pet scan ct scan radiation chemotherapy imagine if all of these things fell on the shoulder of one person to have to financially pay for or even pay partially for right it's like unfathomable and that's and as again you saw in the last topic i'm kind of like uh maybe not as left as some of you guys are on some like economic issues but on this one issue when it comes to health care because of the cost uh that it because of the burden that it has on one person the cost has to be spread around and that's why i'm super pro universal healthcare because that cost has the hasta has to get spread around and uh like you said the mri machine being out of network david and i have never had to worry about you could go anywhere in the country get false fall sick and that's right right david like even though we have ohip we can get sick in any province yeah it's still true i think it still transfers yeah yeah and i forgot to mention i mean i had a kid uh six months ago so and we were thank you and we were we had to be in the hospital for you know a couple of extra days and then most people uh do uh uh in that process and still like you know of course no bill nothing they took care of us great and it's just we go home and we have our child and there's no worried about we're not worried about you know the bills or anything it's it's it's peace of mind that universal healthcare gives you that you know americans really have to understand that yeah and even if you have insurance that doesn't necessarily mean that you're like protected because my dad was a veteran so he basically had universal health care but there were ambulance rides that he took he'd go to hospitals that weren't the va's hospitals but then you know there he it could be covered by medicaid and so there's a lot of overlap but then there's a lot of parts that are left out so like after my dad passed away last year my mom got bill after bill after bill and it's probably about 80 to 100 000 worth of medical bills and in terms of like which ones she has to actually pay she's like i have no idea um i don't know if these bills are actually covered by insurance the ones that we that we have or the va but but you get them anyway and it's kind of like this well you know you cross your fingers and hope that you don't you don't get sued your social security doesn't get you know garnished it's it's so even like even if you're covered there's still like that peace of mind in america it's just it's not there and it's it's it's bizarre sarah have you had the same conversations that i've had where people genuinely feel frightened by the prospect of universal healthcare so i well we all say that we're the worst but i say we're first worst so there you go we're number one at the worst healthcare good for us we did it america we're great again um so i have had like i grew up with my dad's from the uk so like he had universal health care has always been like a thing in my house my dad's like i don't understand why we don't just have universal healthcare because he grew up with it and i've run into it where like people don't it's so misrepresented that they're like oh but it's going to cause like taxes and i like the freedom of choice that i have and i don't want to lose my doctor and i don't want to lose my network because they all have this like weird envisioned like moment that like and it says a lot about both veterans care that i feel like people have this and a lot about american health care they feel like they're going to be corralled and forced to go like a va hospital instead of their regular doctor and like first of all that says a lot about what you think about veterans care second of all um that's just it just isn't the case like the choice doesn't change like it's you're still gonna have access to whoever you wanna go to like your job all the doctors become a network like i watched my my buddy was like trying to find a general practitioner and he spent like two weeks calling and calling and calling trying to find someone in network and they were all like it'd say yes for part but no for other parts and like it took him two weeks to find a general practitioner and like i have to explain to people do you really think that's like better than being able to call any doctor and go and not have to worry about it and think about it like you you'd rather call like 900 providers and like i had a healthcare story she was wide um a health health scare when i was um i think it was before i was running um but i started having this like colossal like sharp pain that started at the back of my head and it just like spread him to the point it was like debilitating like i couldn't walk and i couldn't breathe um so we called ambulance and the ambulance came and took me away um to get from my house at the time to get to the end to get to the emergency room entrance was less than half a mile it was like a third of a mile it was a 940 ambulance bill to go a third of a mile and my insurance was like we did cover part of it they covered it apparently 900 was the bill for me to pay the total bill was like three thousand dollars and like utterly ridiculous nonsense and so when i hear this and i hear people like talking about healthcare and they're so afraid of healthcare costs i'm like what if like imagine a world where you're like oh wow i feel this weird pain in my neck and you don't have to ride it out you can just go to any doctor and it's covered and then we all move on [Music] you

AFTERMATH - WANDAVISION EPISODE 1X03 NOW IN COLOUR!
so starting off what did you think of this episode i i actually saw quite a few people talking about like sort of what's like what's like the episode ranking so far people say like sort of putting episode two still at like the number one one i think um oh i think i i think this one might be my favorite though i think this one was my favorite too this one was a lot more funnier than the other two in my opinion this one was so funny i couldn't stop laughing i think like i'd say that um yeah it's like they definitely had like a little more of a like this is sort of a lot more of the comedy sort of aspect for a lot of it and then like but having that be an episode be almost entirely comedy throughout as then like to get the juxtaposition to that that end sequence yeah that was perfect perfect yeah but like talking about funniness i think some of the the first two episodes and like seeing some of like paul doing the comedy that um that was sort of like those are some of my favorites so far still yeah i don't know it suited him well like the 60 70 sort of vibe that suited him really well in that time period i think this one was elizabeth's episode i think well i think paul did really well too especially with the breathing technique and even just that whole like oh that whole sequence where it's just all the like the powers go all weird and then both of them are just like like that was perfect absolutely loved it and just yeah again like it's so surprising that it's so funny like and even just paul and elizabeth like there's such like like even especially when we look at like the other marvel movies that they've done and even other movies they've done there's such serious like drama actors but they're so funny it's just yeah it just shows a different side to them and i hope that they do more comedy in the future because it just shows that they're really good at what they do yeah it feels like um um i think like look just looking at like well some of the upcoming mcu projects seems like they're gonna be going to that sort of like that sort of vibe a little bit more of like let's because like you think about like the typical mcu film is sort of like you know like sort of mid-level sort of serious stakes and then like like sort of like good degree of like so like jokes and quips yeah i think like one division is sort of setting up more of the idea of having something that's like this sort of extreme contrast of like majority comedy but then this like really like intense sort of like you know deadly serious stuff i think that's what the loki series is going to be like yeah i think yeah i think the loki series and this series will have a lot in common in terms of comedy because even with that trailer i remember watching it i was just like what the frick is going on and i was like this is exactly what happened with one division when i watched it because i was like what it's going on with one supervision this is not what i expected i thought like when i remember when they said one division like series coming out oh it's going to be so serious it's going to be dark and scary and blah blah completely different to what i expected obviously there is some scary aspects that we will jump into later but um it's just completely like like the opposite of what i expected and just either way i'm just enjoying it for what it is and just i just hope as well with loki that it's also on par with this and i'm excited for that series but another time to talk about that but um again just the whole like i don't know the pregnancy comedy got me hard especially when the water broke i was like please don't be that that's so water breaking and it was and i just cracked up i couldn't stop laughing it's just so good oh it's just so good and the whole like even with the whole contraction bit that whole thing i was so tense i was just like oh yeah just every second of like when like um what's her name um geraldine every time she like moved and stuff i was like please don't look at the bird please don't look at this please don't look at that that was perfect great like keeping up with tension in those beats um but oh just again this episode like that whole ending we need to unpack because there's so much to talk about but what else did you enjoy about this episode before we get to that i'd say that um because like i mean i've loved like this the cinematography of the show oh yeah it's not not just like at how well it's like you know recreating all of the traditional styles but just like it's just so good so good this one like i'd say i this one visually i enjoyed even more than the previous two just because like having this sort of like kind of low stock film grain that they have yeah not where the flag is just like that it just looks so great and even the bright color is so nice to see some really bright colors yeah and like just like there's just this particular sort of way of like how the color what the color balance is like and how this sort of like the way that just everything looks that just you know it's just like such a beautiful feel yeah i've always loved the sort of like um the 1970s sort of aesthetic of like with like some films with that era lots of like album covers yeah and so on it's just like it's i'm just always a big fan of the sort of like you know 1970s sort of you know visual style and visual aesthetic and like that just looks so good about all this and they like replicated brilliantly there's just so many different like individual shots that just like just absolutely stunning yeah just a close-up on someone and like just the way that like the depth of field looks the way that you know the framing is it's just it just all looks so i reckon we're gonna we're gonna be in the 80s in the next one yeah because she had like the curly hair yeah uh because a lot of people have been like sort of theorizing of like okay so like what's the how many different eras are we going to see are we going yeah seven or eight or something because there's been some people saying it'll just be 50s to 90s and then modern as like sort of like the sixth one there's some people saying could be eight if we go 2000s 2010s 2020s i thought well that's long yeah and like 2020s it's like i feel like it's only been this decade for two years now yeah there isn't really a a the sitcom style of this year to really show yeah not really and besides like it's set in the 2020s you know it's like i mean 2025 because yeah you know when like end game but it's like yeah like that is the present day in here so that would be stepping away from like the whole showing these different times like nostalgic aspects yeah i'm thinking it's going to be seven decades 50s 60s 70s 80s 90s 2000s and 2010s yeah because there is not nine episodes isn't it there's nine episodes all again yeah i'm gonna be two two episodes are like then we'll just be like apart from all of that and like yeah sort of like just really exploring more of the sort of multiverse stuff or like everything else going on with the sword but yeah i reckon yeah next one we're going to see the kids grow up through the show yeah i think in the next episode because i remember from the trailer i think they're still babies because i remember they were they had the cots so either they're babies or they're like toddlers yeah yeah so that's what i remember from the trailer because if it is the 80s it probably is the 80s episode they're toddlers because i remember there was a scene from the trailer from the first ever trailer we got which was like ages ago um so yeah we'll see obviously in the next episode 2010s i don't think they'll be like aging a decade with each one oh no it's like yeah that it's like that would be like yeah yeah besides like tommy and billy are usually depicted as being like about 18 in most of the comics usually oh yeah so like they're yeah they'll grow like a little bit through each one and like yeah but who knows they might come up in the movies later maybe i wouldn't be surprised at all yeah i wouldn't be surprised either since they have brought them up in the show there has to be a reason why they're bringing them up well let's get on to the really like important well important part of the episode that i think everybody's just glued to because it was so like well done the ending just that whole last part was so well done and just because throughout the episode you thought oh wait actually before we do that there's what that one well actually there's a few things that combine to this one but the whole thing with vision and him seeing like all the um little kinks in the world he was seeing like all the stuff going wrong with herb and then noticing the dinner and stuff and then that rewind like it wasn't even like a big deal but just the fact that it happened just like ah it was so like well done but it also just sent like chills down your spine because it was just like oh god like she's she's doing this and also with the ending just before we jump into talking about the ending i actually like got an idea of what might be happening i don't know this is a theory with no like real like evidence to it but i was thinking especially because we spoke about it last week in terms of mephisto and the possibilities of him coming into the mcu and from what i've seen on the internet a lot of people are seeing like the 666 numbers around and stuff so i was thinking yeah and the hexagons because six so i was thinking maybe wanda made a deal with mephisto to create another world i wrote this down so i wouldn't forget um she made another world where she can control the reality however the effects of this also come with um causing her to be more obsessed with the perfection of what this reality is and also be allow her powers to become more uncontrollable and unstable which leads to that maybe affecting reality in the real world so that's what i was thinking maybe that might be the whole thing of how that leads to maybe doctor strange and then the whole spider-man thing but um that's what that was like a theory i thought of just last night and i thought like i'd bring it up because like i really want the whole mephista thing to be true because like he's so cool and just like he's and also because they said they're bringing like the doctor strange 2 is going to be darker and like scarier and it was like the only person who's that scary is mephisto like i've been scared of him since i was a kid and i really want to see him on screen but um yeah that's just the theory i had with the whole ending that we saw and also just throughout the episode and everything we've seen so far i might be wrong but i thought i'd bring it up and just talk about it for a bit it's definitely the one thing that like um uh my read on the series and like sort of what's going on at the moment in the world that um has like changed a lot between episodes two and three like up until episode three i was kind of thinking that his vision like is he actually a person in here like this construct of yeah wanda's perfect husband yeah she's created in this in this real that's been created in this reality but then it's sort of it's looking more and more like he is really here and yeah it's actually him yeah yeah and like he's one of the he's he's a victim of this world he's sort of like he's trapped in here and he's starting to see the the phrase in reality that yeah wanda is actively hiding because she doesn't because she wants to keep this right yeah and she wants this perfect image yeah yeah and especially we saw that in the ending like how scary she turned just like what you say and i was like oh god and then she just like oh she went home dear she had to rush her i was like oh my jesus lord oh she's scary that's like yeah that's the first moment where wanda's willfully like sort of seen past the facade of everything was yeah pietro and it's like because it's like it is this it's so like it just kind of suggests the idea a little more of like that you know it's like it's like you know with the idea of like a kid say this like this is taking a little bit of like this is like for her this is this is more than just this sort of like perfect well it's like something that's like bringing her back to like thinking about the real world yeah and like sort of and reminisce on that too yeah yeah this is a world without this is like yeah this is the her perfect world of just like her vision with her kids but then it's like but in the real world that's where she had all these memories of pietro yeah also then makes me think of like do we do we think that we will see um she trained if she brought vision back to be a part of this or she could bring vision back to be part of this world when he was dead yeah and do the same with phrase that's why i wonder why she hasn't done it yet if it is going to happen because even i was thinking i didn't know because i thought the deal with mephisto may be a big thing to ask about even just a new reality but like to ask also for vision back i'm not sure like i'm not sure if her powers are capable of doing that but if she maybe asked for mephisto to bring him back and then create this realm where she's able to just do her own thing um i'm not sure if that's possible but i think anything's possible with the stories that they're doing at the moment um but yeah it's gonna be interesting to see how like even just with vision like what else he does because i think even in this in that ending he like i don't know i think he may have felt like something was wrong especially not only with the whole geraldine thing but like with just even when he came inside and he was like looking around because he knows that joel dean doesn't actually have a home so it was like yeah so that's gonna be interesting to see if he actually addresses that next episode i think um i was just picturing this sort of the idea of like say yeah pietro just walks in the door in like next episode or something at some point oh that'll be cool it's like i was i've imagined like a sort of a bit of a sequence of where vision's almost actively fighting against wanders rewinds and resets here and there of like he's sort of he's coming and he's still like he's at first shock like but but you died you know you died yeah it's like i you know i i know that that happened you know it's like this is less sort of because it's like i imagine like just the way it is for vision at the moment like he will probably have to remember that he died at some point and i think he will yeah i think he will soon yeah because we did see that in a really short trailer that happened a few months ago before that long trailer that came out but i think like just having this moment of where he's sort of like he sees pedro and he's sort of like you know first blunder resets it and then sort of like things go on he's realizes again and she has to reset again or something like oh that would be that'll be interesting to see if she has to reset it like more than once yeah that'll be that'll be interesting there's the one theory i saw someone had i put something like so they said that um this is all the rumors about um evan peters potentially being used as well and like yeah some people are saying that he'll be he'll be playing mephisto some people are saying that you know he could be playing he could be playing his quicksilver from you know the x-men movies then and like honestly i wouldn't be surprised at this point if he does so yeah both of them yeah but then i saw someone had the theory of something like that uncle pietro turns up but then something happens and it's sort of like almost like treated half as a gag and half as this really is like shocking serious sort of moment of he gets recast in the way of like what could what's like you know also referencing stuff like fresh prince of bel-air and so now like oh yes you know andre uncle character every now and then being like sort of recast that sort of thing yeah like okay so yeah it's aaron taylor johnson at first and then he's like he goes lane comes back and it's seven peters and we act like it's all and like i said that could happen yeah i see what you mean or if they they could do it they had they could go back and forth between the two of them they could like sort of have it the other way around or something but i either i just think that it'd be like a really fun sort of it'd be a really fun way to have the kind of like the sort of reality being like you know being like warped and contorted in this weird way also be a nice little reference to like sort of the multiverse and like to you know the other like yeah and like films and then also it would just be like it'd be a fun reference to like different sitcoms of the era oh definitely yeah i think yeah our um i will we'll see i guess there's plenty of american we're getting closer and closer to like you know there's like more stuffs going things are going to ramp up with each episode yeah and i mean this episode ramped up a lot even though it was like only like a two-minute scene boom the tension went up and it was like damn like they did it so well like i can't emphasize that enough like just that little bump up in the tension and then rising rising rising and you're just like left on that cliffhanger i loved it it's so so good and just like oh like i think a lot more people are starting to come on especially with the reception of the crowds like everyone's loving it again like we said last week like it's amazing to see that people jumped on but even this week like seeing the amount of support the show is getting it's like good because i was so worried about like yeah especially just with the criticism it might get for being so different from the original formula but i'm glad that it's like gotten so positive because for me like i was sort of getting sick of the old formula of movies we were getting so i was hoping like give it a revenge give it like some a breath of fresh air so it's a little bit nice to come back to um and already i'm sucked in again and i can't wait for the like the other shows that are coming but even with just one division i think yeah again the drama and the hype is going to build every single episode that we're gonna get in the next few weeks until uh the climatic acting ending for whatever that's gonna be i got like it's like an interesting thought i had about with um the whole sequence with herb and agnes i think herb's very much a victim he's like someone who's caught up in all of this and like yeah trying to escape in his own way but like you know just the way that the reality around wander is sort of like kind of trying to protect itself and trying to stay stable yeah i think it's like the bit when like when he was cutting through visions fence i think that was like he's trying to get out yeah oh that's a good way to look at it yet i was just terrified that was just reminding me of so many horror movies i was like ah no i'm out but then it's almost like vagueness it's almost like she's trying she's trying to keep things like stable as well she's yeah keep the equilibrium of this world and keep it like you know keep the facade intact and it's almost like she's she's like you know almost against against her her better judgment is trying to keep it stable like she is sort of like i was like it's almost like she's got like the thought of it would be easier to like sort of to break out of here and to let things all fall down but no i have to keep it stable i have to keep things together yeah keep things as normal as possible and we've still got the mystery of ralph and like yes i know anything about you know exactly uh yeah i wonder if that's gonna maybe that like i don't know maybe i don't know because i feel like mufister is going to show up but it might not be in the form that we like think it's going to be and this is the thing i need to look it up i'm not sure if it is if he shapeshifts or anything because if he does that'll be interesting if he does i'm not sure if he does though so if if it if he does it'll work in the favor of like him maybe being ralph and then at the end maybe he like morphs and all we see is like the silhouette or something like i feel like that would be so cool to show just like that hint and then boom it's gone ah that would be so cool speed related abilities shape-shifting there we go yeah yeah okay he can shape shift okay okay oh okay then he might be in the show then oh it might oh who's that girl again that you said was i was thinking who's you know the girl who's with herb who's that girl what's her name again uh agnes what if that's my feaster i was actually gonna say of like i think what if what if they're setting up the whole thing's like ralph's just a red herring you know it's like keep think get everybody thinking okay who's ralph who's my office ralph yeah who's ralph he's going to be important yeah yeah what if it's actually her especially if she's saying like keep it normal this is normal oh my god what if it actually is her oh that would be so cool and having the whole thing about ralph is like yeah he's he's literally just a red herring he's a distraction it's a ruse yeah yeah he's like it's not even that he's not he doesn't even exist he isn't even a real person this idea she keeps like she just talks about her husband all the time because she breaks him up like every 10 minutes oh yeah in the first two episodes so it's like yeah and i think like it's like this sort of like a like debate pulling a bait and switch like that i think that's like that'd be like that that just sounds like something that the right is this will do oh my god it might be it okay this is something we need to like keep in mind then because this might actually be a things now i'm excited because now i want to know if she's actually the villain oh that would be cool they'll probably like it's like they they like they like set it up so much they talked about him so much like get everybody talking about and thinking about ralph like that's what everyone's been talking about as well on twitter i'll come up in the show as well like someone at some point like vision's going to sort of think about ralph or someone will ask further about ralph because it's almost like it's like the sort of thing of where she talks about him enough that it becomes sort of mundane it's something yeah it's like oh okay it's like yeah okay hearing about ralph again nobody's going to ask about ralph nobody's going to ask her about ralph because he talks about him all the time but then someone will and then and then she'll have to answer and then everybody will think all right we're going to find out who ralph is and then there's nobody yes that i know she's she's she might be the villain yes it's a distraction it's just get everybody thinking about someone else right because i feel like there has to be some big twist to it to reveal like whether it's mephisto or whatever is like this force that's like having like a play in wonders like world of reality or whoever's helped to create this reality like oh it's going to be a great unveiling because just like ah it's so intense already it's just like when it happens it's going to be like oh my god because um i know there's there's some one theory someone had about um and she's a character i honestly don't really know that much about but yeah character um agatha harkness oh she sounds familiar yeah what does she do marvel character one of um oh one of wanda's main villains from the comics there's there's a theory going that that's who agnes is oh maybe maybe we got it wrong with mephisto what's what does she do aaron has been depicted as one of the original witches from the salem witch trials somehow surviving later became a significant figure in mobile continuity um later mental health in real magic oh i think she might be in wolverine comics as well i think i've seen her before she was yeah she caught sort of matches agnes description as well oh it might be because she was um yeah it's like that basically sounds like um that's sort of the role that that uh doctor strange is going to have in doctor strange two of like being the one to teach wonder about real magic is that this whole thing is like she's already learned some real magic yes oh maybe she sought out or was found by agatha harkness who then taught her how to create this world or something it's like i don't know yeah you'll have to be defeated by another sorcerer namely the sorcerer supreme exactly i really want the mephisto theory to be true though i really want to stay with the marvel universe says that uh sorry i was just like reading something said yeah one of the main stories about um one of the main stories that agatha turned up in um agatha resurfaced alive and well when wanda's infant children began exhibiting odd behavior and wonder became unstable um and blah blah blah blister claimed the skull witch's children actually fragments of his own soul and then that he had created them because she she wanted like she wanted vision had died she wanted kids [Laughter] oh save that save that link clear just in case oh wow oh we might be onto something then yeah i'm excited though that's so funny but she's an old lady yeah well i mean like it's like well i mean like you know like she's a witch as well as like oh true that oh maybe they got another actress to play the older version maybe i forgot about that oh god stop looking stop looking sorry yeah i thought i told i completely forgot about it was a thing from one of the trailers as well it's like oh no stop don't smiling for yourself i i see why people are talking about agatha hognose so all okay it's like um because you know the you've seen the bits of like when they're in the halloween costumes at one point oh yes the 2000's episode is what people think that is i think yeah yeah visions in his classic costume wonders yeah magnus is dressed as a witch and she's like wearing like a one of those all right okay all right okay okay yeah all the theories inside i think that yeah okay all right okay then we love that like i didn't see i've seen like people say there's people just like randomly talking about i've got the heart what's her deal what's the thing about her oh okay then all right let's see what everybody means now okay now we understand so yeah okay i think she is gonna agatha and then i feel like mephisto will pop up somewhere whether it's ralph or some random ass character it's gonna he's gonna pop up yeah yeah because i know that some some people had like said the thing beforehand of like um just like what we'd seen of agnes in the trailers and like what's up just the name celeste yeah as well and like um some people i think there's something like um some people that like compared her to like and like her relation to like wandering house like that they're still connecting the shows like sort of kind of like with um uh andorra and bewitched like oh yes that's essentially what agatha and wonder's relationship is like so like this sort of yeah just like other sort of like mentor and like you know yeah mentorship figures and so on that's like it's like oh okay okay it seems pretty concrete there's literally so many different things it could be or it could be oh it could be yeah that's the thing it could be i mean it is multiverse so they could go and like you said last week they can go as crazy as they want they can take this wherever the hell they want so yeah we're just here for the ride because like as i mean like even just like the the simple thing that um like i'm just like there's just the name dropping of pietro and ultron it's like as mitchell you know it's been how long since we've seen any mention of them in the mcu it's been so long i wouldn't be surprised if we get james played james spader back at some point possible if he comes back that would be because he's such a great actor he's so good in voice acting as well and everything he did with old run yeah amazing so like if they got him back on the show i'd be like sweet nice because someone had the someone had the theory as well of like um like part of thing we've seen through the show so far is like wanda is she's not just like created her family she is building yeah family right yeah so first of all it started with them like moving in like by the end of the first episode like you know they had had their rings had their song you know that's all sort of yeah like established as a sort of like you know classical married couple and so on yeah through the second episode um just all like just trying to like you know just become like sort of just more like you know led to everybody else in the town like some connections like i mean like they're just like going through like sort of much faster obviously they're going through like all this like you know this sort of story of like you know this couple moving into town you know i saw it they just got married again like then they you know got to know all their neighbors you know it's like that's what the second episode is all about now they've got the kids and then it's like you know what's gonna happen next like we're gonna have more of a family kind of built out it's like we've got a mention of the kid's uncle yeah so maybe next episode we might get him yeah and then as like i know that someone said like just imagine just if one episode is yeah knock on the door um knock at the door and then yeah wonder goes and opens it vision is so like just looking from like the lounge room and then says oh vision it's your father and then james just walks in it's like just human james you know yeah you know just like comes in and it's like oh yeah you know and then that'll be interesting yeah i'd love that and even again we did say it's a possibility if they were going that like extreme crazy multiverse sort of thing magneto yeah they could go with ian mckellen but like at the same time i mean like that would be extremely amazing if it happened i mean anything's possible and especially because you brought up the fact that this is obviously based off one of the biggest comics from wanda and that she in that comic she builds one yeah and plenty like she builds her family out for this perfect reality yeah because it could be and then there's the house of m story where she saw like creates this sort of like like you know mutant leadership sort of thing you know of like with you know magneto in charge but i'm thinking like combine all those stories together and have this sort of like she creates this sort of nuclear family yeah herself a vision of her kids her uncle her brother um her father visions father and you know just sort of you know creates this you know that tries to like sort of bring everything together but then it just like it just gets more more fractious as it goes on and even more unstable yeah yeah exactly it's harder to sustain all of that as you know as it starts to get more complicated and more you know like like one like like ultron kill ultron killed pietro and like something like that of like just bringing in that sort of thing of like you know vision realizing that and trying to you know present that to her but like you know this is he he was dead yeah and sort of like i just imagine like sort of like like for some of the other dark comedy they've had the show so far of something just thinking like if there's like a big family dinner or something and at one point at one point ultron just like you know just it's got a glass of wine accidentally spills it across pietro's shirt or something's like oh it's like oh no no oh that would be great that actually would be such a dark comedy and i love it that they're including it too it's so much in the vein of like all the rest of the show too it's like yeah it's great yeah because we saw that yeah that could happen yeah exactly i would love to actually see that that would be great um let's talk about the hydra soak yes i was going to bring that up too advertisement today yeah so there was um uh i saw this one thing like people talking about it could be a very very major reference to agents of shield how it's like i think it's from one later season someone's just sharing an image of this scene talking about a telling you about this blue hydra soap that makes that like makes you forget about everything and saw like you know think you're in a magical place et cetera yeah like maybe but like this is called hydro soap yeah it's harris soak yeah and also this is all about the main line about um letting out the goddess inside you and there's like i was probably really talking about we've got well loki scepter that had that was blue in the middle oh yes hydra used like a scepter to unleash wonders powers oh yes that's a good one yeah because there's the there's the one thing i've seen people talking about of like what they might do of like just a really really simple little not even really a retcon more just like sort of elaborating further on this sort of thing that uh pietro and wonders powers weren't really they didn't get their powers from the mind stone their powers were activated by the mine stones oh now the idea of like sort of like latent mutant powers oh that'll be good because yeah even when i remember when i first found out that it was like apparently from the mindset and i was like [Music] yeah i don't know how i feel about that because i'm such a big x-men fan so i was like nah okay i'll just let it slide because mcu but if it was just activated that'll make me a little bit happier yeah and then it's sort of um and so it's like yeah it's kind of like that if that that is where they're going like that's kind of like well it's like it's because i said you know like um i'm releasing the goddess inside you know it's like releasing not creating exactly yeah and also just the idea of like yeah wonder and ph like already having the inherent potential for those powers yeah and then like those just like it just takes something to release it you know and that's really true yeah but yeah um and then i i know there's the big theory everybody's talk um i'm talking about a lot of the some of the ways that this is sort of relating to the kind of house of m storyline it was um the reason there was such a big event in the comics was because at the end of that um when that whole reality was then torn down wanda in doing so also erase the powers of 98 of the mutants in the world there's a lot of people think oh yeah she did yeah so a lot of people think oh they could go the other way around yes having it instead she activates the powers of a whole bunch of mutants and it's like oh that would be great yeah theory but i always feel like it's part of the thing with mutants that always works best with them from a story like the idea that i've been around for a few decades and so on yeah it's all like they didn't they haven't just i mean like suddenly part of the whole social commentary issue of them that it's like you know it's the way a lot of um um sort of like you know um regressive views of like sort of like different sort of like um um social minorities and archetypes and so on of like although they're just cropped up in the last few days in the last few years or so like no yeah they've been around for years it's just the society hasn't recognized them yes like that's something that you can do with mutants that is like you know yeah it works best in the idea of like because like apocalypse and so on has been around since yeah and like obviously it there's like moons have been rarer since then it's just only and like it's often what they say it's like um because of nuclear testing in the 1940s that sort of like led to yeah yeah a little bit more and that's them when they really started to become well known just out as well with like the globalization um through the late 20th century like people got to learn about the more of like in it that's the thing but it's like i because like they could do that and that could be a really simple way of setting up mutants in the mcu if having a wander activates all their powers yeah but it takes away a lot from what mutants yeah it does and so on so but then it's one of those sorts of things like it's like okay what way would they how they actually get it to work and like what's a good way to do it then again of course there is the whole multiverse aspect of it could just say that all right there's like it's actually like another earth just to date adjacent to this one that's yeah all the mutants are you know that isn't necessarily where all of the x-men films take place like they already have this kind of like sort of flexible approach to the sort of like multiversity of them and alternatively yeah that could work too yeah stuff is set up in like logan and deadpool and you know um excellent wolverine yeah and so having is that something like yeah although all the mutants are here but they're just like in a kind of slightly alternate timeline yeah there's like there's a world where there are mutants there's a world where there aren't and that sort of thing and yeah could even reference that with the two phrases in fact one of them is from these universities from the other yes that's true yeah who knows i guess i guess we'll see i i i have faith they'll be able to do it in an interesting way that yeah you know all right um uh final thoughts any theories well again i think it's just like that whole thing about mephisto that was like my big theory for next episode though um it is the 80s episode so i think we will see more of like the kids like and maybe their powers like manifesting and just like growing or maybe like we sort of accidentally saw what you were reading maybe the powers go a little bit like the power's not really like not working but maybe they are out of control i mean like the fact that kids as well as like i think they'll it's like especially like this past episode i reckon like they're definitely going to do that sort of story of like oh yeah the kids are growing up but the kids have got powers they're like so like just as powerful as you know as wanda yeah paul wonder and ph right yeah i should say but then and then like sort of i mean like we've already seen like um vision is like a struggling dad through this episode and like getting to see that turned up to eleven of him trying to keep everyone on both of them yeah yeah i reckon they'll i reckon they'll definitely do that that'll be the sort of story they'll do there um i think i think the the next episode i reckon we'll get our first like big extended sequence of like outside of the um outside of west beauty i hope so yeah i reckon that's when we'll probably get to see darcy and jimmy and you know and the others are out there because like just like you know um geraldine's been thrown out and like oh yeah they're all dean monica you know monica yes see um her sort of like reporting back about everything and um because i think it was um there's a thing um when they had the recap of the starting episode of the thing mitch pointed out i saw like i hadn't realized at first the bit when when wanda meets sheldon in the second in the second episode she says i'm uh i'm and it's only when shakespeare's one general dean geraldine and girl oh yeah as if like she comes in she's thinking about it yeah um geraldine that's my name you know because wanda signed a name to her or something like like she's like she's in here but her identity and her role in this world's like yes i wonder yeah yeah i reckon it's sort of definitely i like that in sort of seeing everything so like get really much more serious and much more so like leaning into like the sort of real world stuff when the kids came along that really select quotes well for some like some of my theories about like this is sort of something like this is all to do with them and this is so like they're the the thing that this is all kind of hinging around yeah whatever's going to be happening with them but yeah yeah i guess we'll see more next week thank you everybody for joining hope you guys enjoyed the video and for the children for the children bye everyone [Applause] you

INTERVIEW: Interim boss Trueman reflects on January transfer window
uh mark chancellor now over how do you reflect overall on the uh the kind of activity over the past month or so it's been a busy one yeah it's been a positive one uh i think the coaching team are pleased of how it's gone we've obviously identified players at the start of the window we've managed to get them over the line um obviously we've talked about the culture that we try to try to bring into the club that starts at the top i think the you know the staff have all pulled together and and showed that work ethic and managed to to get these signings over the line so yeah we're pleased with how it's gone mention the incoming nine of them how pleasing how positive is it to have been able to kind of bring in the the volume of players we have in a lot of different positions a lot of different types of player how do you maybe see them all fitting into this side well it's exactly that we've brought in different types which you know offer different strengths um you know offer different kind of strengths to it to the team in regards to the you know different positions they can play they also can offer different threats to a different opposition so you know that's what we wanted to do at the start the win they wanted to identify players who can can obviously offer different threats and i think we've done that with the players that are brought into the building in terms of character referencing how big of a part did that play every signing that we've brought in seems to have been really desperate really to come and play for this side yeah i think it's it's huge really i think we've mentioned a lot uh it's about culture um what we've tried to create in a club from from top down um so yeah we're you know it's important that we we get the right characters in the building to to help you know that the culture within the club and the more that the players are pushing each other the better the environment will be on the depth of the squad how much of a better position perhaps do we feel in now at the end of the windows as opposed to the one that we we kind of entered in we seem to have a a vast squad now with a lot of different covering different positions and how important is that going to be with another busy run coming up yeah i think it's important that we did add um to the squad in regards to the the fixture list that's coming up i think it's saturday tuesday for the next uh you know six weeks so it's important that um the players are bringing in a game ready um but also they're going to push the players that have got the shirt in the starting eleven so i think we've done that and we know that i was gonna pick up injuries um potentially and you know suspensions at times so having that bigger aren't only going to help us get through this busy period terms of the deadline day action two lads and then obviously charles vernon holly crankshaw can you speak you know about them how pleasing is it in a way so we've been able to bring two lads in on deadline day four fees from teams in a division above yeah it's massive you know we're adding quality to to the team um i think that's massively important in the january window you don't want to just bring players in who are much alike who want to bring players who are going to push the the squad and the players who are starting and i think you know uh charles and and uh crankshaft will will do that um and again that they've got different strengths to the players that we've got in the building so you know it's it's it's a big plus we're happy what's being done in a january window and you know that just highlights kind of our intent and what we've tried to achieve even this season we've already seen a fair few of the new recruits in action what have you made of them so far in terms of what you brought them do were you being pleased and encouraged by that so far obviously danny rose probably stood out with the two goals already yeah yeah i think obviously roy has come in and fitting with the group really well like everyone else has in terms of the character um yeah jordan jordan's obviously got getting more and more game time and and showing more of his strengths and i'm sure there's more to come from jordan so you know them two have had more game time than the others but obviously um you know it's important that that they keep pushing and and they just keep pushing sorry and take the chance when it when it comes just a little bit on the outgoings you mentioned them at the top six of them overall how do we kind of arrive throughout the window at these kind of decisions that i imagine you know potentially difficult to make over the course of what has been a long month as we said yeah well when we came into the the role we had to assess the team and you know we knew that we weren't going to keep everybody happy we couldn't give everybody the game time that needed so that's a reason why some players left the building and and others we just didn't really see kind of in our plans in regards to the style of play that we looked at we looked to adapt since coming in so you know um we've obviously we've looked at the window and looked at different players who could fit into the roles uh that we want in this kind of formation that we're playing at this moment in time and just finally in terms of the long-term kind of ambitions and future of the club how prevalent was that in the way of thinking during this window and we're playing bringing players in and and obviously saying goodbye to players as well how much of an eye is on the future with that in mind yeah i think you know we've brought players on in um on longer contracts so that's showing where where the club is going you know we're looking to the future um we're not just bringing players in you know on short deals or all all loans we're looking to sign players who's gonna be part of the club uh moving forward so you know that that is important and obviously the loan deals are with clubs that we've got good relationships with so you know there's potential that that loans could happen again in in the future so yeah we're delighted that um we've got these these players you know with deals for the future so you know it's all about again creating that culture and these players have brought in now all part of building that

podcast uh today I have a returning guest who spoke with me on a interview I did on my Channel about six months ago I would invite you to go back and look up for look up Arthur Quan Lee he's our guest for today in that podcast he gives you his whole background on the amazing things we're going to be talking about today but today we're going to dive into some deeper subjects as it relates to Art in the world today particularly how it's being used as a political weapon Arthur thank you for joining us brother thank you for having me on Elliot you got it man boom yes yes sir so it was great to have you on the show last time man and to explore your background and the things that happened to you as a conservative Artist as an artist who is a man first and unwilling to compromise in your values um but you also gave an amazing talk at the 21 convention in earlier this year a lot of you guys remember Anthony he's the founder of the 2012 21 convention that talk will be coming out soon and I invite you guys to go check that out when it happens I'll be sure to give you an update but I'd love to dive into some of what you spoke about in that talk because it was one of the most amazing talks I've ever heard at the convention um I think the best place to begin would be to explore how art today but dating back to the earlier earlier part of the century has been used as a political weapon in our world what's that all about and how's that unfolding so okay I'm gonna start this by speaking personally first and the reason why all of these uh this cultural War component in regards to the utilizing creative classes so I'm so involved in it is because I worked in the art industry for over 10 years I worked in New York City Gallery circuit and I always noticed that there were all of the circles in the infrastructure associated with climbing up this ladder was essentially an echo chamber for a certain political ideology and a religious ideology as well and I couldn't help but notice that so I had to basically live in Social camouflage and eventually because I spoke up and at the time I was a trump supporter and at the time I was basically producing biblical imagery what happened is I lost this relationship and being castigated from these institutions forced me to really think about these things deeply what is the roots behind this real-time experience of cancel culture and when I delved into it I recognized that there's a pedagogical route associated with this and my talk was using the Nazis in particular and how they were masters of propaganda and creating ideological subversion with their creative class that was what my talk was on but I noticed that this was actually across all history and I saw it from you know the paintings of Francisco Franco to Tyran uh the cinematography of Kim Jong-il The Poetry of Joseph Stalin and Mao all of these tyrants they understood you can utilize creative class to normalize certain values and that's when I was like this is fascinating and then obviously the most obvious example is the Nazis uh with Joseph gerbil's contacting Talon to associate with the financial and political Elite and for me that was like mind-blowing and you know I'll go further into it they literally contacted a gentleman by the name of William Joyce he would be like a Dave Chappelle today that's how much influence he had as a comedian and they secretly funded him so that he could normalize Nazi values as he did it sets on the radio and that's brilliant because you're doing something called blending you're seducing people by making them laugh because the the Nazis understood if you can package even demonic hatred for another artistically the masses will normalize it for you and that's why art is so powerful and what I'm seeing today is modern parallels and I look at what the radical left is doing and I think the radical left is just a mask for the undercurrent which is just uh the feminine matriarchal spirit and I see what they're trying to do in the ethos and they're like all of the rock stars today they're essentially Matrix Beyonce Ariana Grande you see what I'm saying it's like all of these figures are are just are just um modern representations of Lilith and when we watch like say um Saturday Night Live or like the night shows and stuff like the political commentators or comedians it always seems to be that there's an agenda to their speech so you're suggesting that these so-called actors are entertainers artists per se are not just there to entertain but to shape the culture all of these agents are trying to destroy Christianity and when I say Christianity I'll be more vague um Christianity is a religion of patriarchy so it is antithetical to feminism so the feminine agenda is really it's again I I just put out a real thing I think feminism is the largest religion in the west today what do you mean by that it's it's it's a religion um the it's goddess worship and I believe we live under a matriarchy and you know the reason why agitate for example was a phenomena is the same reason why Donald Trump was a phenomenon right it's the same reason why in many ways you are a phenomenon because you're Unapologetic masculinity in a Public Square that demonizes any sense of a man harnessing his masculinity now obviously some of those guys have put it they swing the pendulum all the way in the other direction without any balance so there's a lack of wholesomeness but still the reason why they are uh they're getting so much Spotlight attention is because we live in you know what Kate calls it the Matrix but the Matrix is essentially the matriarchy right that's essentially what it is right yeah we live under the shadow of the matriarchy yeah where do we see uh fruits of the matriarchy in our pop culture you know art music media um where is this most uh prevalent prevalently seen or um given to us the most powerful sword in in in this um the cast of weapons that for the feminine Spirit has is the lgbtq movement hmm that that is such a powerful sword that they have because that's the ultimate way they're gonna erase the boundaries of gender and once that is in flux we're basically doomed right and look I'm not uh I'm not a doomsday black pillow kind of guy but there's a gentleman by the name of JD Unwin and he wrote a book called sex and culture in 1964 this is magnum opus this was his life's work and often I think about this gentleman because um so here's a British social Anthropologist in Oxford and Cambridge before it was woke so legitimate brainy guy yeah and he studied 86 different cultures recorded through five thousand years of history and he noted that with the Sumerians the Babylonians Athenians the Romans what they all had in common where they were all the superpower of its time and they are patriarchal and then once they transition to matriarchies every single one fell where do we see uh in those cultures maybe some examples of that transition from a male LED patriarchal order to you know what somewhat might say uh the feminist disorder that we're you know the the followers and this is the this is the scary thing because it's cyclical um once there's really three sigils of a society at Doom there's three warnings the first warning is um widespread atheism and obviously today we look at niche's gay science when he wrote God is dead Jordan Peterson has proliferated that notion and normalize it which is good so the first sign is the death of God the second sign of a society towards its Doom is female sexual Liberation and that's what unrin writes in Sex and culture and then the final sign is what Roger scrutin talks about the desecration of beauty and rewriting of History so we're at the last stage so it's disconcerting but but when you read guys like Yuri besmanov right when you read guys like JD Unwin scrutin um all of these people who are so predictive we're basically right on track you know is this a inborn archetype of The Human Experience or is this something that is uh Unleashed as a weapon to destroy beginning with the first stage which is uh the death of God um I I see this is this is the trouble to have because is it just a part of the human condition is it inevitable because it seems that every one of these societies has fallen and and there's always this large contingent of strong men like you like myself who speak up but it's never enough right and I mean look if I saw the circling of the drain and the unraveling I'm still going to go down fighting for my own Integrity right as a man but that said it's once again um it's it denigrates uh quite a bit of the the spirit that we're coming from because every single one of these Empires were not able to reverse their process and once once you liberate woman sexually um within three generations notice basically no Society is able to be sexually liberated whilst having this expansive energy to build socially cohesive uh social cohesion upwards no Society can do both and that's what his evidence showed um he he saw a positive correlation between a society's sexual restraint and their ability to build towards uh upwards with civilizational means and it's concerning because we're so we're in such a lascivious point of our culture that it's like trying to get 160 million women to go back in the kitchen right right yeah or trying to undo the fall in the garden yeah would you say that this is something that stems well we could say The Human Condition or the Fallen human condition as a result to uh of our ancestors decisions uh particularly that of well first Adam to uh be derelict in his duty to protecting and covering his wife and then his wife stepping out from underneath his authority and then being in cahoots with Satan it almost seems like the same pattern well you know Eve um is able to you know recover herself by by being a mother though you see that's kind of the idea like she but you know again there's there's I talk about this notion of Lilith um and I'm really interested in this because there is a pagan and witchcraft oriented Spirit behind feminism and if you look at this uh Pagan feminist culture they're always worshiping this goddess Lilith and Lilith is literally the the shadow form of Eve and she's supposed to be looked upon as like cool as well yeah she's like the bad girl she's like a culture icon in many ways too yes yes but people don't realize like Lilith actually demanded the slaughtering of babies over the water like all these these uh demonic manifestations that reminds me of Planned Parenthood actually right it sounds uh very reminiscent or like indicative of what's going on today yeah I I think we live under the shadow of the dark feminine yeah and so as an artist uh you encountered this first in your line of work uh talk to us about well in the 20th century where we began to see this manifestation of the dark feminine in the well what you call the degradation of art how does art how does art changed and how has it been a change agent to uh manipulate the culture or change the culture so uh there's a gentleman by the name of Tom Wolf and he wrote this book called a painted word and his whole thing was he was a lover of art a New Yorker and he was obsessed with how people can represent High culture essentially and what he came to see is that um this post-modern agenda in conjunction to the to the feminist agenda essentially they are they want to destroy actual aesthetic standards and they're promoting relativism essentially so the first thing I'll say is aesthetically speaking when you go into galleries today the standard of art has gone down that's why anyone here listening has gone to you know the Modern Art Museum section or galleries and have thought what is this right like what what am I looking at well that's a natural like that's totally organic and that's Justified that's a righteous feeling because the reality is what are you looking at most of the time this art is horse manure but the reason why it's it's um they've brought down the standard of art to a field of Relativity and when the patriarchy was in charge or the creative class was utilized to uphold Universal standards ideally towards something spiritual right that's why the greatest artists have always been um Christian in that regard for a reason right because they're sort of utilizing their talent towards servitude and you're almost again well you remember when I mentioned Unwin and now what we're talking about here all energy that builds upwards it's always what I've been noticing is that energy has a shape and we talk about you know I don't I don't mean what energy can be electric nuclear that's that's not what I'm talking about I'm talking about how all energy in order to build needs to either folk localize and build upwards or you leave it to chaos right and it's this interesting thing where it's either here in the mud or you're building it up right it's like integration or disintegration yes this is what you do you vocalize and then you build upwards or you leave it to its chaos this is what every type of energy with a nuclear spiritual material this is what I've been noticing as well there's a there's an analogous shape and I've seen this visually manifest in actual paintings and sculpture as well whereas either this miasmic crap or a standard that is based on pointing towards something higher are you suggesting that art is subject or objectively beautiful or as some people believe art is subjective beauty is not in the eye of the beholder we all know this but but we like to uh masquerade and pretend like that is a case because otherwise you know you know these modern NPCs have to see how overweight they are or they need to recognize that this man here is intimidating or they need to look in a mirror essentially and instead of look at themselves they'd rather just say everything is a clean Flat Rock that's the strategy yeah it's just more collectivism and um look I I need to make something very clear though um I'm not blaming women right this is a very important point because people don't hear the balance and I want to approach this holistically I know I I'm talking about the dark manifestation of the feminine psyche but I'm not blaming women right I'm saying it's the absence of masculinity right it's nuanced here I'm not saying it's women's would you go as far even as to say that it has been man's dereliction that has led to the female uh user it is man's fault it is it is man's fault yeah I think it's all it's always on men actually and it's difficult for me to have this conversation with red pill people sometimes because um there is a streak of bitterness where it's almost like well we need to put it on the woman where I'm like I'm like I agree if they want if they're coming at you with their fangs I can see your point right because you this preservation okay I can understand that argument But ultimately um it's the the real problem are the real problem today is that weak cowardly malicious men outnumber strongman it's a numbers thing that like that's really the problem like numbers is a reality like there's just so many white Knights and spineless men who can be controlled by by female sexuality they're just there's such a large contingent here that outnumbers like for for every one Elliott holsters maybe ten thousand cowardly um [ __ ] whipped drones you see what I'm saying right and the problem is that we're just saw a number so like I actually think these men are the problem these men are the ones validating and the muscle behind woman because at the end of the day everything is based on war and God everything is based at the Baseline level it's all war and your religion right and they have they're Warriors for them the feminine psyche is only effective a feminist society which is what we're pushing only exists on the tail end of its of its run you know so it's an oxymoron because they can't exist they don't have muscle they have no power behind them but they do weak men right so the real problem is weak man I don't I don't even care like honestly like maybe I'll look even more like a sexist but I don't even waste my time talking to a woman well even beyond that so you mentioned the three stages beginning with atheism would you say that um atheists are weak men and it is from that Paradigm that there is no Authority in God the father that uh that leads them to be susceptible well I mean I'll first say that atheism has already lost but we have to understand it's not because um it's not like Sam Harris and Jordan Peterson sitting at this table having a disagreement and then one person comes up at the top it's more that atheism um it just collectively has not satisfied satisfied the masses at all and it basically materialism cannot answer spiritual questions that's all it boils down to so atheism is already done by the way the real problem because atheism has now passed its torch to as I said atheism's cousin which is Lilith feminism right Christianity is not about defeating atheism it's about Christianity defeating feminism all right because then that is the religion that replaces yes Christian atheism has passed the torch to feminism right because atheism cannot fulfill but perhaps feminism fulfills a in a in a perverted way a sense of needing some sort of existential guide uh and therefore Lilith and feminism see people aren't cognizant of any of these feminist archetypes they're possessed by them they're not even aware this is what I mean tell me more you can look at any um okay so so my my friend and I were just talking about this how like you know when we when we went to college um there was literally like a large group of men that we just felt bad for because uh long story short because we went to college together and every time like we were at some kind of social Gathering if a beautiful woman comes in there's always a contingent of men who are just ready to bow down right and do whatever they like possessed check this out this is what I'm saying it's like the reason why I like using the spiritual language magical language is because it makes you experience it and feminists are witches and their sexuality is a spell I mean how powerful is female sexuality as a tool as a weapon it's incredibly powerful I mean every guy here can think about how some girl that just gave them the correct gaze bothers them and they can't even sleep like every man can relate with that to a degree see what I'm saying because it's a spell you are under a seance and you say that this is what you mean by sexual well quote-unquote liberation yeah I mean because uh when when female sexuality is left unchecked it leaves the men the men no longer care about fighting for their culture honor yeah there's there's no point because um it's very interesting but the way it works down is that when a man doesn't uh when a man when a man lives in a culture that's social institutions forbids uh compulsory instincts and and desires what happens is he has this tension in him and that emotional conflict actually is useful for building a civilization and that's what gets castigated that's what that's the thing that conflict that fight you have to not masturbate or to not look up pornography that's directly connected to your creative ability and it's it's wild because this should be taught in sex ed they should be reading Unwin and R versus K selection they shouldn't be learning about you know female reproductive organs they should be reading JD Unwin and R versus K selection because then you have practical information about imprinting and how to build a society and how sex is an undercurrent um force in conjunction to a higher religious order I can't help but to think of that line there's no honor Amongst Thieves and it sounds like you know it's what it's honor that is discarded as a result of men now being thieves in that they're receiving things that don't belong to them in the promiscuity of quote unquote sexual Liberation uh you know sterile transient sex and so by uh having contraception you know which is a very uh Hot Topics you know you start talking about contraception people don't understand why it's a sin but then it uh subjects men to this uh almost uh entitlement like somehow they're entitled to be receiving sex from and it allows them it allows the Witchcraft to proliferate they're able to basically control men even stronger their spells are stronger now that they can just go on birth control and actually [ __ ] these men and completely have them entranced it just makes your spell stronger it's crazy because you know years past or at least maybe the the story was that women were the ones that were being ravaged by sex and that they were being taken advantage of but I can't help but to see amongst the men that I deal with and speak to and Mentor that it's really the men that are getting kicked to the side and that are being taken advantage of uh because of underrestrained sexuality not the women yeah you know um this is something that's controversial to the red pill as well but you know free love it I believe it's worse for men yeah I agree I believe it's worse for men and and every time I say this like some of my red pill fans will be like like what are you talking about I hear you because a woman's value is connected to her Purity and youth I hear you especially as an investment fair but my point is a man's ability to stand up for what's right is literally sucked out of him right you know and and it's it's um it's like I can tell you personally I don't I don't masturbate and I I retain my seed and you you can look at my art it'll speak for itself you know so men of the say Middle Ages or Renaissance Era you know Michelangelo you think you did something about him recently Leonardo da Vinci uh these were men of a patriarchal order these were men that lived in a time when there was sexual Purity and it was highly reverenced um are we seeing the degradation of art as a result of sexual liberation yes 100 um look it's look look I'm not I'm not a Freudian sex isn't everything okay so it's not like we're just Baseline it's all about sexual control um but sex is supposed to live under the order of a religious order that that's that's my point and uh oh I I think that oh my gosh like if it sounds so crazy about because of the promiscuous nature of females today everything is going to fall apart right you know so but again and I blame the men for that but I think that unfortunately look if there was a button here right like a nuclear bomb button and I push this button and it gets rid of welfare and abortion and marriage to the government and everyone has to marry through a church I'll push it right now and there will be so much collateral damage but it would work right Within two and a half Generations or three I'd push it right now right but but because I don't have that button what's gonna have to happen instead if you're gonna if you're gonna look at it clearly what's gonna happen instead is we're gonna have a generational wall that a lot of women are going to hit soon and feel a collective regret right and it's gonna be so heavy you'll feel it in the air right like it's gonna be like when you're going to a butcher shop or a slaughterhouse there's no animals there but you can feel the the death of so many animals I'm using that as an example because I once experienced that um but it's you're gonna feel it in the psyche women are just going to have this Collective misery and all these women are going to realize that they're fornicating freely and now they're um discarded and they're what they call leftover woman right so you mentioned these three stages I'm really fascinated with that so the death of God it's very evident uh in our world today uh during the Riots of 2020 we watched as statues were torn down um brilliant beautiful pieces of art that represent order and tradition um and now we're watching all kinds of well ugly art being placed right well right okay speak to that what's going on there is there a uh a change of guard here happening that we're seeing yeah there's uh this the terminology is satanic inversion it's very very important to know this word um everything we're seeing is uh being flipped upside down essentially you know which is why you know we've heard things like a fat is beautiful you know men can be women everything is being reversed right and and in the Christian order you know um it's funny because I can talk about Christian order from a personal standpoint but I like to talk about it from more of a bird's eye view strategic building uh Society sort of angle because it's it's useful in that way and when I look at it here the the power of the church and Christian thinking and Christian fathers is that essentially it was creating a model that allowed the optimal family structure to maintain and protect and provision that's essentially what the structure is attempting to do um and by by knocking down these Colonial Figures it's it's now they've knocked down some Christian statues as well but it's been predominantly Western men figures uh white men in particular but but the idea is it's kind of the same they're trying to just get rid of any patriarchal sigil you know because you can knock this down you can say that I mean that's that is as Hollywood as it gets you're literally knocking down a public representation of values and putting up yours instead right and that's what we see happening even the you know the burning of Notre Dame and this antithesis towards Mary the Mother of God that we've seen unfolding for the past 500 years I would venture to say I wonder if you agree that that is Attack on femininity uh at its you know most vicious you know there's a lot of hatred towards you mentioned these Colonial figures but the desecration of uh the statues of Virgin most powerful you know the most pure and perfect woman to ever walk this planet also is uh probably the Pinnacle of this sense of hatred towards Purity and Order yeah I mean it's it's um I think anything traditional but there's a there's a deeper word for that anything that points towards the logos is being taken down anything that points towards a universal truth that is ultimately good for the family is being taken down and and that's it's always about destroying the family right so so so all of these all of these images paintings and sculptures being destroyed um they're just they're just trying to get rid of the family essentially you know um and I think under all this it's the spirit of it's a spirit of paganism and Christianity fighting that is what we're seeing those are the two impulses and I'm not a Buddhist but I'll use a yin and yang example it's like it's almost like those two energies are fighting and New Age thinking will will tell you that like yeah well we need the bad people for that reason I'm like no no no no that's an important conceptual lesson sure but the way in practice Society should be run is we can't have any of that yes boundaries and and I but I do see this impulse between this Pagan Spirit to destroy any sense of a higher order and God the Father and it is a father that's the important thing it's it's not it's not God the mother let's make that clear and that's another problem I see with a lot of these churches today a woman a woman yeah it's it's it's um that is foolish and why is that what what do you say to somebody that argues well you know women are equal to men and uh and perhaps women have been treated poorly for so long and it's high time they would say that women take their place uh in this way what's wrong with you I'll tell you so if if there's a girl listening to this show who's on the fence who is in a university where her feminists leftist professors are trying to pull her one way you know the other hand uh she looks at the uh her mother and father and and in a romantic appreciative way if there's a woman listening to this dilemma I will say that like assuming this person actually has open ears you're getting equality and identicality Confused because a woman who actually like a man who sees a woman in her femininity proper that is a powerful woman actual power so you see a woman's power is not through through uh how much look they can lift obviously right A Woman's power is her ability to to make things lighter ability to bring in bring in a gust of wind behind your actual walk it's a supportive Force but it is a legitimate power and ideally that sexual power as well is preserved under her man because then it's not a sin you know because that because it's it's between two people um and that there's a Holiness to that you know and it's actually like very it it It just fits it clicks so well a woman can be um you can ravish a woman if she's yours properly right that's what I'm saying and it's not and and the evil is out of there in that case as well it's almost as prime one place right but it's but it's but it's right but there's adoration too you know what I'm saying but it's like we're kind of missing that whole um it's all out of whack now and again I'm sex free sex any any sexual act that is not walking towards building a family is a stain to the soul that's what I'll say yeah and so there's such a big pop culture push for the sentiments that you're that you're suggesting uh the music the movies we see it in Hollywood universities I mean it pervades the culture uh so much so that would you agree that most people are Under This Spell and they don't even know that it exists they're totally Bamboozled alien they don't even know that they're possessed by the spirit they're they're they're you know there's a term that a lot of young people who are based have been using which is NPCs they're literal NPCs they're non-playing characters you know I'm not a video game guy but the idea is that like you know there's you're there's you playing the game and then there's just empty space you know these people who are walking around most people are NPCs most people are just echoing sentiments that they heard that they're uh Collective around them is telling them to push forward uh most people don't actually think critically and and think about what builds a society you know what keeps things in order and it is the spirit of the benevolent wise King we need that Spirit um and that is what's basically missing and and I'll tell you that our culture is always going to be until we can openly speak out about this and and more I would say more larger figures can start having the gonads to also speak up as well and deal with the cancellation and we can continue supporting this direction uh people basically sticking the finger to the to the feminized State um it's always going to be an undercurrent it's always like the masculine force will always be essentially fetishized until we can put it to the Forefront because you're putting it underground so it's going to manifest in a different fashion and I think we talked about this last time and that's the whole attraction and alerts of hip-hop for example hip-hop culture is is over compensating masculinity and I enjoy hip-hop when I work out at all these things too I enjoy kind of hip-hop because there's like I enjoy a lot a lot of these guys are wearing dresses well I don't know enjoy that hip-hop because but what I appreciate about is that it's so masculine you know what I mean right even if they're cursing it like that's why people like hip-hop this is my point there's undercurrent of masculinity there but it's always going to be an undercurrent of a aggressive overcompensated form of masculinity until we put up masculinity into into the spot what's a rebellious it is a rebellious yeah but that is the attraction hip-hop and Donald Trump and Tate they all have the same thing in common would you say that rebellion and Order are antithesis to each other I think Rebellion is order under the table not always but but but but it can be easier what do you mean no what do you mean by that okay okay like let's look at uh uh a positive form of masculinity and culture uh Braveheart the film Braveheart okay that's the artistic represent representation of masculinity in a positive way right done properly so we have Brave art here now let's say all this is looked at upon is patriarchal and demonized by the matriarchy well it's going to be put underground now we have things like gangster rap and all these things under the table does that make sense yeah right well it's not for virtue it's a rebellion so you're success suggesting that Braveheart is a rebellion towards virtue where perhaps like hip-hop where you know the Rebellion is using swear words I would say Braveheart isn't even I mean okay our artistic expressions of masculinity in like such a positive light that that is uh good for the world that's not a rebellion that's just saying like that's just the truth you know that's just an archetypal truth this is this is a necessary part of culture and I would say um the shadow form is all these artistic Expressions that are that are basically not good for the world but they're catchy and they're fun and and um that's the attraction to them but it's it's just like it's like the shadow of of it's a shadow of masculinity you know but it still is a form of masculinity if that makes sense yeah Shadow masculinity yeah so let's talk about uh order for a moment and and Western culture we both agree that uh the greatest of Western Art came from Catholics the Catholic order um I'm under the uh belief I believe that a lot of this breakdown that has led to uh feminism uh began with the protestism of the uh 14th 15th century with Martin Luther and the splitting up of Christ Church and that uh that protestantism is in a way has led to where we are right now because it is a uh a rejection of the order that gave us the beauty that built our civilization hmm yeah there's a lot of infighting in these denominations we'll call it right um and and um yeah I often say that the first person in the Bible who is filled with the holy spirit is one of the first people is the gentleman by the name of bezel and his assistant oh Hawaii I'm in Exodus and they're both artists they were sculptors and it's very clear that bezalo makes it very clear that the ultimate function of an artist is spiritual servitude that is where your art is at its strongest because you're pointing upwards your art has a North star that is beyond your Primal urges or narcissism or worshiping of self and that's why he created the Tabernacle right and all of this is like literally like that that to me says it all from a Biblical context but what do you say to Protestants who suggest that the creation of statues is uh idolatry when we know the uh the ark of the covenant was uh commissioned by God you know I had so many people lambasting me when I painted Christ Panther crater I painted this this depiction of Christ it seems to me that in protestantism there is a iconoclasm uh the churches are modernist typically looking they don't look like the Notre Dame or like the great cathedrals of Europe um I think I think it's leaning I think it's a it's a lens towards the Rebellion that we're experiencing today absolutely because you got to understand that and the ugliness you know Doug Wilson once said you can't talk about Christian culture if you're not um into Christian culture so you're saying that I cannot depict Christ in this very oblique masculine Warrior spirit that has been done for for um I don't know the exact timeline but it's been done over and over again this notion of Christ's Patrick is Google it's a Warrior by the way your rendition of it is amazing it's Savage in your in your style your red style man amazing oh thank you brother um but yeah I mean I'll tell you the first thing if we're not going to grab the bull by the horns then the enemy will anyway I guess what I'm saying is that um if we're going to talk about this from a Biblical language in regards to evangelizing and bringing people to the light you know keep in mind influence is a part of that equation right notice what the enlightenment did is when this Protestant notion of stop depicting these people as false Idols well number one the artists are not expecting people to worship the paintings right they're just worship yeah no one's expecting that but but the next step of that because I get this all the time because I paint biblical imagery out of inspiration but they think it's Blasphemous right and it's so strange because the intention is not it's a rebellious idea because when you're not under the authority of the church you start taking the words of the church the Bible yeah out of context and making up your own ideas which is you know yeah yeah it just reads to me a person who is not actually grounded in the world or or oriented towards or traditionally or tradition tradition is lack of reverence and I'll say that the enlightenment they literally use that against us because The Good Men of the good talented men were told not to do such you know they were told not to create so Enlightenment depicted Christ as this liberal hippie going forwards and so you have all these you won't go into some some dollar store and see this little gold cheap gold frame of of Christ the lamb looks like this hippie petting the land when he should actually have a whip and if we're going to be biblically accurate this was a strong man who had a lot of love so he cannot he can also have a handout to the full to help men to be strong like him so they can be sources of light in the world see that that's that's also strategically brilliant and I think that's just lacking because we're not in the culture man so it's like you know I mean it's kind of like you know you're you're basically saying we're not gonna um we're gonna we're gonna talk about culture and be all uh aerodyte and theoretical here but then we can actually participate in the front no art no films no writing nothing yep so it's just the true and the good not the beautiful right it doesn't make sense to me so yeah how do you you've mentioned to me that you are a Christian Anarchist yes how do you reconcile you know this traditional conservative uh leaning that you have or or you're even a a soldier for this a worry for it with the idea of anarchism well I mean essentially I I just hate the government and and I couldn't help but see that the uh and the when when again the claim of when Nisha said God is there we've mentioned this many times on this podcast now but the reason why I'm mentioning it once again is because that vacuum that that that longing for higher order all went to the state right so the government exploded once people became atheists and also statistically most atheists they vote for a larger State and they vote in welfare like women often and it's because they need they're still longing for a higher order to sort of take care of things so they're going to be meta and say Daddy government instead of Daddy's guy I guess and that's kind of what logos yeah or the ordering principle of the universe yeah so so I mean again it's funny because first thing I have to do is when I say anarchists people think of dystopian chaos you know Heath Ledger uh cops cars burning around and all this you know um it's it's not I'm not saying we should have no Authority that wouldn't make sense because I'm a Christian right I believe in a higher authority I'm submitted to that that wouldn't make sense I am saying I want to eviscerate the government as much as possible and like I'll still vote right if it comes out to her because that's less State than than the left uh it's closer to it but um you know it's it's I just there's enough of a pattern for me to see that when you give the government power they they treat you as peons and I believe that you know the larger the government the less influence the church has on his people as well I've also noticed that because my father is a pastor and I've also noticed that so if you actually want masculine authentic patriarchal pastors well notice that a lot of those guys we can talk about Michael Foster we can talk about um whatever ministers you have in mind he's just uh none of these people stay away from me they based or found their foundations of the actual churches are away from government reach right for a reason because they want to get away from that so they can actually help the people accordingly and and I just couldn't help but notice that the more the government intervenes in people's lives the the further they have trust in their religious order the woman become more um expected of resources without being properly in their place the men become lazier um yeah the government is is a handout essentially right and I and I just can't get behind that um I'm pleased to hurry price would have been an anarchist too because the state is the one who crucified him by the way he also held up that coin and said render to Caesar what is his in other words let them be um and he's the king of a different order altogether he says his kingdom is not even of this world yeah yeah that's a good point but I I guess what I'm saying is you know because this is an important point because I see this between Christians all the time followers of Christ are always saying this is not my world so and I'm like I agree hmm but we still have dominion over it which is still we should still be putting out our message out publicly because otherwise people will suffer more and be more disconnected towards the truth you spoke about the enlightenment earlier and I'm I you know pleased to hear your position on it um I refer to it as the indarkment uh but a lot of people are not familiar with why that would be given our Public School textbooks and what we've been taught and even the term Enlightenment um how is it or why is it that the enlightenment has been a negative force in our world today it basically recalibrated all of these important rituals and institutions towards the self it became about worshiping of the self and you know we you know on one hand I say men have to care more about themselves you know because look at how out of shape people are look at how lazy people are look at how they're not standing up for what's right they're allowing themselves to be drones on one hand but um that will get dull and if you have any perspicacity to you you're going to also understand that that should be oriented towards something deeper if you want to have a fulfilling meaningful life so I I think we're in a way we're still in the shadow of the Enlightenment it's funny oh yeah light um but but they're always rebranding uh yeah I I it's funny because I had this crazy conversation at the Cigar Lounge with uh this this professor of Theology and he just he was just telling me Enlightenment has ruined everything all the problems in the Christian church today the feminization of the church is all because of the Enlightenment and well often when I think about the most masculine and I would actually say I hate using the word toxic but in a toxic form today is Islam right but Islam keeps their woman clothed Islam keeps their woman Chase Islam cannot coexist with feminism they would kill it Islam is not afraid to die Islam has no special interest outside of all the money they have so they can build beautiful art I mean Islam is doing it right in regards to unwinds diagnosis of expansive energy right now Christianity had that same structure but it was much deeper when it when you look at Christianity Islam side by side Christianity is way deeper but the enlightenment has perverted quite a bit of the audience right so that's why we need to sort of um cut ties with that that shape that's attached to it it's like a tumor almost we have to cut it off so we can get back on track and you know I'm not saying that they're going to Crusades but we have to kind of Annie up Annie up you know an ideological Crusade why not and you know and that sounds extreme but it's not any more extreme than what they're doing you know who would you say was behind this subversion beginning with the Enlightenment and then ultimately all of the quote-unquote revolutions that we see today I mean look if I'm gonna get deep to the point I would say the devil you know I believe it is devil and are there Devil is a Foresters who he's acting through and yeah the original the original I guess one who bit the Apple was Plato hmm yeah and I would say all of this all of this um counter-christian thinking right they're all students of Plato in a way and I'm not and look Plato did a lot of great things I'm not well Plato was before Christ yeah yeah but but but I'm but I'm saying this this the philosophy that he's coming from is essentially a philosophy of materialism and and if he if he's a root if he's a founding father of philosophy um and then the devil will always use materialism to seduce human beings I guess I'm speaking very philosophically here but he might be one of The Originators of the devil's doing because if people want to be intellectual to defend their ideas they get very platonic you know they get very platonic and they use material arguments to try to dismantle a spiritual point hmm and that's why you know this whole this that's that's I don't know I if I'm gonna blame specific people there's a lot of people to blame right but um I I just recognize that it all comes from this worshiping of the self through materialism that is what I believe is the problem and it's it's just so hard to bring it back in but yeah yeah and that's that's a challenge I've been really having and I'm starting to think that we need to kind of I need we just need we need a Mean Streak because we're just playing nice with these guys and they're just laughing at us as a counter order yeah some something because there is an order or what are your thoughts on Freemasonry I need to do more research on that you can't enlighten me now and like yeah uh it was just a question uh I would need to do more but at the same time sworn enemies of the church against cross and Crown uh is their rallying call and the subversion of Catholicism in particular there's no question that the church has been subverted and Satan's smoke has been in the church for at least the past 100 years their goal was to put their man in the papacy which some argue has been for at least the past 60 70 years and then also In Cahoots with those who Hitler rallied against yeah the Jews yes right uh The Forbidden word right have worked to subvert the entire culture as a result because as uh I think Augustine says as I don't know it was Augustine but uh as goes the church goes to society you're right against right Crossing against order and logos and so you know here we have now uh you know guys like uh who's that basketball player that everybody loves LeBron James you know throwing up like uh Satan signs before every basketball game and you know these uh rap music uh guys who are like putting blood on their shoes and selling them and you know it seems to have gone completely towards the the satanic in every regard well what I'll say is everything we're talking about here whether it's sex art religion culture essentially what it is what we're denoting is that human beings are very disconnected with the spirit so they will be de facto circumstantial when you're disconnected to a higher truth you will be a absolute product of your circumstances so this idea of determinism it exists for those who are not conscious you know and and the reason why I say this is that when I said that there there was a button here that can cut off welfare and abortion and all these things well woman would act accordingly within a couple Generations because they have nothing else to lean on to you see what I'm getting at right and in the same manner we need better infrastructure we need galleries putting up God-fearing art we need churches to stand up for what's right and talk about vaccines and hypergamy and all these issues that the left is you know perverting so effectively we need we need our institutions to be stronger because they're the ones disseminating these values with the people so I I just believe people are so circumstantial uh because they're not actually looking at themselves with the information at hand these are very hard structures institutions you talk about you are of a subtle art is subtle and so I'd like to Circle back to that because it seems even more than the institutions is the cultural War you know Antonio Graham she said that the West won't be won through bombs and bullets these are hard things but by a cultural Marxism a a subversion ideological subversion and uh you are a Warrior against the the use of subtle means subtle weapons the art what do you imagine or suggest or just you know open up the conversation about a return to traditional art masculine art art that represents the logos art that that changes the hearts and Minds uh and and elevates people rather than debases them yes through the music and through the movies and through the Galleries and things of this nature what do we need more of in order to come back to this place because art is spiritual and so that's really where the battle is I would I would venture to say more so than the government order even the ecclesial orders the church I think it's the hearts and it's the minds and so it's the music we are um um you know there's this idea that art limit imitates life uh but I believe it's more correct to say that life imitates art I am with you 100 yes yes we need to create we need more creators but I will tell you that we live in an attention market today so we need to get these people who are morally in line with our values getting attention and keeping them in line so they don't get corrupted we need talent that's creating fantastic art in that regard and that's again what I try to do that's what I try to do with all of my peers in my art group as well but I know that it's um it's it's such an uphill fight because we don't actually have any support structure anymore that's one of the challenge challenges that I keep hearing from all these talents regardless of medium painters you don't have any galleries unless you're left wing you know there's a filmmaker I know he looks for actors uh goes to these actors guilds and they're always suggesting him to make his script into an lgbtq angle right so it's just it's all become so contaminated that we need people who are willing to create an infrastructure in a direction to support these people because you are right we need art to be put out in the Forefront because it's so powerful because the power of art is not like like you said the power of bullets and material the power of art is in its seduction right it's seduction and it's seduction that actually is much more powerful because this is why the idea that the pen is mightier than the sword is so true but the brush and the film all this is mightier than the pen as well and we can literally create archetypes into people's minds you know and then they're set like I can you can think about like scenes from certain animated films and you watch with your kid or you watch as a child that you'll never forget but you will forget some statistic or some equation right 100 because it's a story there's imagery there's Aesthetics you don't forget that stuff we're innately connected to all this so we need artists producing art that promulgates the good the true and the Beautiful and I remind everyone also whenever you go to these left-wing institutions that are promoting their artists and their talent remember that is the compass they don't know more than you that's a pretentious facade that's what they like by the way right because they're not just um debates they're bad artists they're bad talented a good work of art and I I just went over this recently Thomas Aquinas talks about how a good work of art is a triangulation and ever it must be denoting the good the true and the Beautiful if it is missing one it is incomplete that's how I know it is good art it needs to be formalistically strong and contextually strong it can't you can't make a work of art that's beautiful or like well done I should say but it's a subject matter that's dehumanizing right why would you want this why would you want this out in public why do you want your children to see this art you know but you also can't have a work that is beautiful in intention but there's no sense of color theory proportions or real there's no technique and skills and who cares if there's nothing sexy about it so you need both and Aquinas is right in that regard you need both you need to make beautiful art that also has this deep sentiment in it and then you might move people you might influence people in the right direction and I've been doing that with my brush but people can do that with photography the medium isn't the point you know it's not the medium specificity isn't the point it's the intention behind the medium and it's about fighting all the degeneracy that's coming in from the other direction and Believe Me Elliot we are outnumbered heavily because they also get support we don't have Awards we don't have residencies we don't have grants we don't have any of that you have to play towards them and then they would give them to you but then what's the point at that point right right and that's a challenge and that's why I am you know this might be announcing it early but I also am in the process of potentially opening up a logic gallery this showcase different Talent on our end that is something that I'm considering doing as well um but if in order to do it right I got a lot of work ahead of me if I'm to do that so but that's also another thing in the works but it's it's early I'm just doing Excel sheets right now you need financial support yes this is a problem I mean I'll tell you right now that uh it's a strange dichotomy because capitalism is so important um because you know it's the nature of the market and it allows people to flourish but capitalism is great for making money but not necessarily for making culture and this is the challenge that people see yeah it's difficult to come to terms with this because on one hand yes I want everyone everyone on my side to have money of course I love you all you're on my team you're on my tribe we're all the same wolves love it but it's difficult because the production of culture requires you to empty your pockets so to speak yeah but they don't understand and this is the one thing the left actually understands that we don't yeah because we're pragmatic the left understands and investment is not only based on Roi in my bank account an investment is also my hands actually influencing and dictating and supporting culture in a certain direction that's something that left does understand though and I've seen that because I've gone to the Jane Hotel Rooftop Bar in New York with all the critics hang out and I go to the Norwood Club where all the other talent and directors hang out and like these are I'm I'm giving away my secrets right now when I used to go there like I these are the places you hang out at and what do you see you see financial and political Elite with Talent congregating that is brilliant they're getting all the young people right there that's brilliant that is strategically speaking that is brilliant there's no reason we can't do that and we're doing it in an honorable way because we're supporting artists to make beautiful work that is telling people to get closer to their family and Center for what's right right why can't we do that but it's hard you can't do it we can't do it if we do it in absence of the lord we can't do it if we do an absence of God because they are pandering too and they are working through their God and so when they see that that's true the workings of the world their dollars are supporting uh support their spiritual agenda I.E luciferianism Satanism um then they have a higher calling for their uh investment um I don't think and I you know putting this out as a question as well what are your thoughts that there there's such thing as conservativism without Christianity they they're they're one thing everything the conservatives are pushing the traditionals are pushing none of it matters if there's no God right none of it matters like this is why when I see Jordan Peterson moving his hands like this and doing all this meta talk I'm like look everything you're saying as profound and articulate as it is none of it matters if you don't believe in God right that's where the power will come from yes 100 so I agree but we need to we need to approach that without the Protestant Enlightenment streak because that is also gonna I'm already seeing infighting in the creative side the talent the artists who want to promote this type of Art there's already infighting there from when when we do get the funding or the type of people involved there's this dinosaur republican-ish Protestant right where they don't want any Edge so in other words they talk to me I'll use me as an example I'm a painter right they'll want me to paint the Statue of Liberty and bald eagles and red white and blue flags right and a church in the grass field you know why because they're one-dimensional in that regard we actually need to that's fake conservativism yeah I said this in a comment on one of your videos yeah which was a great video but by the way and you were talking about conservatives um Republicans and and I said that true conservativism is Catholicism everything else is a fake conservativism because that is the tradition of the West whether we like it or not and it's my belief that unless we until we return to the tradition of the church and repair it rather than being split divided and making up our own factions of it you know the the left is Unified yeah yeah the conservatives are not only you know so you got some atheists and you got the Patriots or whatever and then you got 47 000 different denominations we really do need to come under one banner and that is Christ's Church and there's a lot of one-upmanship there as well there's a membership like like there's certain figures who literally will will like I've literally heard certain figures I'm not gonna name anyone who have helped younger Talent get to a certain point and then they're doing really well now they keep supporting them and they say hey let me get on your show no there's like there's a lot of this Petty High schooly thing where I understand because they're being capitalists see it's it's and and that's their God and here yeah exactly rightfully so to a degree but if you're not going to see the big picture then you're a sellout you know and this is kind of where I'm at where I see so many people who you know they talk about the culture they do all this but are you actually doing something to either problem with like like people should be either speaking up making it known or they should be at least patronizing and funding people who are Intercultural Forefront like you and I like because we're at least we're we're putting ourselves in the front line you know I had antifa shoe fireworks at me you know what I mean like I've dealt with these things and we can be targeted you know we we look we are the target for the enemy that they apparently hate but they're just gonna agree clap on then go right back into chugging along without anything actionable you know and this is kind of my concern it's um the actions speak louder than words and if you actually want to see something move and changing culture you should be either speaking up or supporting people who are doing the speaking up for you like that's kind of where I'm at at this point because otherwise you're just opening your lips man yeah yeah tell me more about your um could I call it a guild or are you bringing the artist together that are of the same mindset and you guys are working together to promote each other's art you're a mentor to a lot of these young people so I started an Art Collective called The Genesis Council and I actually started this because when I was in New York City I was always trying to find critiques so I can get feedback get out of my echo chamber and he's I need some other professional artist looking at my art they were all just wine clubs to to come together drink red wine and talk about those bad conservative people that's really what they ended up being and I was I joined three different groups in New York City and I was like this is crowd are we gonna talk about art and even when we did talk about art it was never serious right so I basically said let me make my own painting Collective uh just so we can critique each other and we can support each other and we can give each other heads up about different things and the first thing that happened is when I opened the skilled up three writers asked that they can join because I heard my story as a fine artist dealing with cancer culture being targeted and and kicked out of the club essentially and ghosted by all the people that I work with and they said we've dealt with the same thing as writers yeah I said well you know what I'll open that up to painters and writers then filmmaker wanted to join yeah okay I'll open up the filmmakers and then eventually I got someone I said it's just a general Art Collective Now where people who want to utilize their talent towards the good and and and do then be righteous we'll all come together and we'll be the Rebel Alliance and this is basically the Genesis Council and one I eventually run this gallery which is going to take time it's going to be showcasing Talent that's already been vetted through this group because because you know these people have all dealt with demons yeah yeah and so how can we send you money so there's two things um I make my living with art it's it's they're high ticket items because there are massive gorgeous and time-consuming so if you would like some beautiful art you can go on my website and just simply contact me and tell me um you're interested in putting a work on your walls and I will say often people think you know I can't afford any art well you can if you can't afford a much you can get something smaller and less

section 9 of Arts and Crafts essays this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by Peter years Lee stained glass by Somers Clark in these days there is a tendency to judge the merits of stained glass from the standpoint of the archaeologists it is good or bad insofar as it is directly imitative of work of the 14th or 15th century the art had reached to a surprising degree of beauty and perfection in the 15th century and although under the influence of the Renaissance some good work was done it rapidly declined only to lift its head once more with the revived study of the architecture of the Middle Ages the burning energy of pujan which nothing could escape was directed towards this end but the attainment of a mere archaeological correctness was the chief aim in view the crude draftsmanship of the ancient craftsman was diligently imitated but the spirits and charm of the original was lost as in a mere imitation it must be in the revival of the art whilst there was an attempt to imitate the drawing there was no attempt to reproduce the quality of the ancient glass thus brilliant transparent and unbroken tints were used lacking all the richness and splendour of color so characteristic of the originals under these conditions of blind imitation the modern worker in stained glass produced things probably more hideous than the world ever saw before departing altogether from the traditions of the medieval schools whether ancient or modern there has arisen another school which has found its chief exponents at Munich the object of these people has been ignoring the conditions under which they must necessarily work produce an ordinary picture in enameled colors upon sheets of glass the result has been the production of mere transparencies no better than painted blinds what's then it may be asked are the limiting conditions imposed upon him by the nature of the materials within which the craftsman must work to produce a satisfactory result in the first place a stained glass window is not an easel picture it does not stand within a frame as does the easel picture in isolation from the objects surrounding it it is not even an object to be looked at by itself its duty is not only to be beautiful but to play its part in the adornment of the building in which it is placed being subordinated to the effect the interior is intended to produce as a whole it is in fact but one of many parts that go to produce a complete result a visit to one of our medieval churches such as York Minster Gloucester Cathedral or Malvern Priory church buildings which still retain much of their ancient glass and a comparison of the unity of effect there experienced with the internecine struggles abated in most buildings furnished by the glass painters of today will surely convince the most indifferent that there is yet much to be learned secondly the great difference between colored glass and painted glass must be kept in view a colored glass window is in the nature of a mosaic not only are no large pieces of glass used but each piece is separated from and at the same time joined to its neighbour by a thin grooved strip of lead which holds the two colored glass is obtained by a mixture of metallic oxides whilst in a state of fusion this coloring pervades the substance of the glass and becomes incorporated with it it is termed pot an examination of such a piece of glass will show it to be full of varieties of a given color uneven in thickness full of little air bubbles and other accidents which caused the rays of light to play in and through it with endless variety of effect it is the exact opposite to the clear sheet of ordinary window glass to build up a decorative work and such a form of expression may be found very appropriate in this craft in coloured glass the pieces must be carefully selected the gradations of tint in a given piece being made use of to gain the result aimed at the leaded canes by which the hole is held together are made use of to aid the effect fine lines and hatchings are painted as with silver stain and in this respect only is there any approach to enameling in the making of a colored glass window the glass mosaic as above described is held in its place in the window by horizontal iron bars and the position of these is a matter of some importance and is by no means overlooked by the artist in considering the effect of his finished work a well-designed colored glass window is in fact like nothing else in the world but itself it is not only a mosaic it is not merely a picture it is the honest outcome of the use of glass for making a beautiful window which shall transmit light and not look like anything but what it is the effect of the work is obtained by the contrast of the rich colors of the pot metal with the pearly tones of the clear glass we must now describe a painted window so that's the distinction between a colored and a painted window may be clearly made out quoting from the same book as before to paint glass the artist uses a plate of translucent glass and applies the design and coloring with vitrify herbal colors these colors true enamels are the product of metallic oxides combined with vitreous compounds called fluxes through the medium of these assisted by a strong heat the coloring letters are fixed upon the plate of glass in the painted window we are invited to forget that glass is being used shadows are obtained by loading the surface with enamel colors the fullest rotundity of modeling is aimed at the LED and ion so essentially necessary to the construction and safety of the window are concealed with extraordinary skill and ingenuity the spectator perceives a hole in the wall with a very indifferent picture in it overdone in the highlights smoky and unpleasant in the shadows in no sense decorative we need concern ourselves no more with painted windows they are thoroughly false and unworthy of consideration of colored or stained windows as they are more commonly called many are made mostly bad but there are amongst us a few who know how to make them well and these are better than any made elsewhere in Europe at this time summers Clark end of section 9 section 10 of Arts and Crafts essays this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org table glass by summers clark few materials lend themselves more readily to the skill of the craftsman than glass the fluid or viscous condition of the metal as it comes from the pot the way in which it is shaped by the breath of the craftsman and by his skill in making use of centrifugal force these and many other things too numerous to mention are all manifested in the triumphs of the venetian glass blower at the first Glantz we see that the vessel he has made is of a material once liquid he takes the fullest advantage of the conditions under which he works and the result is a beautiful thing which can be produced in but one way for many centuries the old methods were followed but with the power to produce the metal or glass of extreme purity and transparency came the desire to leave the old paths and produce work in imitation of crystal the wheel came into play and cut and engraved glass became general at first there was nothing but a genuine advance or variation on the old modes the specimens of clear glass made at the end of the 17th and the beginning of the 18th centuries are well designed to suit the capabilities of the material the form given to the liquid metal by the craftsmen skill is still manifest its delicate transparency accentuated here and there by cutting the surface into small facets or engraving upon it graceful designs but a skill increased so taste degraded the graceful outlines and natural curves of the old workers gave place to distortions of line but too common in all decorative works of the period a little later and the material was produced in mere lumps cut and tormented into a thousand surfaces suggesting that the work was made from the solid as in part it was this miserable stuff reached its climax in the early years of the present reign since then a great reaction has taken place for example the old decanter a massive lump of misshapen material better suited to the purpose of braining a burglar than decorating a table has given place to a light and gracefully formed vessel covered in many cases with well-designed surface engraving and thoroughly suited both to the uses in his intended to fulfill and the material of which it is made and not only so but a distinctive creation and development upon the old types has been made the works produced have not been merely copies but they have their own character it is not necessary to describe the craft of the glassblower it is sufficient to say that he deals with the material which when it comes to his hands is a liquid solidifying rapidly on exposure to the air that there is hardly a limit to the delicacy of the film that can be made and in addition to using a material of one color different colors can be laid one over the other the outer ones being afterwards cut through by the wheel leaving a pattern in one color on a ground of another there has developed itself of late an unfortunate tendency to stray from the path of improvement but a due consideration on the part both of the purchaser and of the craftsman of how the material should be used will result it may be hoped in farther advances on the right Road end of section 10 recording by Linda Johnson section 11 of arts and crafts essays this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org printing by William Morris & Emory Walker printing in the only sense with which we are at present concerned differs from most if not from all the arts and crafts represented in the exhibition in being comparatively modern for although the Chinese took impressions from wood blocks engraved in relief for centuries before the wood cutters of the Netherlands by a similar process produced the Bloch books which were the immediate predecessors of the true printed book the invention of movable metal letters in the middle of the 15th century may justly be considered as the invention of the art of printing and it is worth mention in passing that has an example of fine typography the earliest book printed with movable types the Guttenberg or 42 line Bible of about fourteen fifty five has never been surpassed printing then for our purpose may be considered as the art of making books by means of moveable types now as all books not primarily intended as picture books consists principally of types composed to form letterpress it is of the first importance that the letter used should be fine in form especially as no more time is occupied or cost incurred in casting setting or printing beautiful letters than in the same operations with ugly ones and it was a matter of course that in the Middle Ages when the craftsmen took care that beautiful forms should always be a part of their productions whatever they were the forms of printed letters should be beautiful and that their arrangement on the page should be reasonable and a help to the shapeliness of the letters themselves the Middle Ages brought calligraphy to perfection and it was natural therefore that the forms of printed letters should follow more or less closely those of the written character and they followed them very closely the first books were printed in black letter ie the letter which was a gothic development of the ancient Roman character and which developed more completely and satisfactorily on the side of the lowercase than the capital letters the lowercase being in fact invented in the early Middle Ages the earliest book printed with movable type the aforesaid Guttenberg Bible is printed in letters which are an exact imitation of the more formal ecclesiastical writing which obtained at that time this has since been called missile type and was in fact the kind of letter used in the many splendid missiles Salters etc produced by printing in the 15th century but the first Bible actually dated which also was printed mates by Peter Shaffer in the year 1462 imitates a much freer hand simpler rounder and less spiky and therefore far pleasanter and easier to read on the whole the type of this book may be considered the nape blue ultra of Gothic type especially as regards the lowercase letters and type very similar was used during the next 15 or 20 years not only by chauffeur but by printers in Strasbourg Basel Paris Lubeck and other cities but though on the whole except in Italy gothic letter was most often used a very few years saw the birth of Roman character not only in Italy but in Germany and France in 1465 Swain Heim and patterns began printing in the monastery of Subiaco near Rome and used an exceedingly beautiful type which is indeed to look at a transition between gothic and Roman but which must certainly have come from the study of the 12th or even the 11th century MSS they printed very few books in this type 3 only but in their very first books in Rome beginning with the year 14 68 they discarded this for a more completely Roman and far less beautiful letter but about the same year mental Annette Strasbourg began to print in a type which is distinctly Roman and the next year Gunter's signer at Augsburg followed suit while in 1470 at Paris Ulrich Goering and his associates turned out the first books printed in France also in Rome in character the Roman type of all these printers is similar in character and is very simple and legible and unaffectedly designed for use but it is by no means without beauty it must be said that it is in no way like the transition type of Subiaco and though more Roman than that yet scarcely more like the complete Roman type of the earliest printers of Rome a further development of the Roman letter took place at Venice John of spires and his brother vin de lijn followed by Nicholas Jensen began to print in that City 1469 1470 their type is on the lines of the German and French rather than of the Roman printers of Jensen it must be said that he carried the development of Roman type as far as it can go his letter is admirably clear and regular but at least as beautiful as any other Roman type after his death in the 1480s or at least by 1490 printing in Venice had declined very much and though the famous family of Aldous restored its technical excellence rejecting battered letters and paying great attention to the press work or actual process of printing yet their type is artistically on a much lower level than Jensen's and in fact they must be considered to have ended the age of fine printing in Italy Jensen however had many contemporaries who used beautiful type some of which as eg that of Jacobus Rubeus or Jacques LaRouche is scarcely distinguishable from his it was these great venetian printers together with their brethren of Rome Milan Parma and one or two other cities who produced the splendid editions of the classics which are one of the great glories of the printers art and are worthy representatives of the eager enthusiasm for the revived learning of that epoch by far the greater part of these Italian printers it should be mentioned where Germans or Frenchmen working under the influence of Italian opinion and aims it must be understood that through the whole of the 15th and the first quarter of the sixteenth centuries the Roman letter was used side-by-side with the Gothic even in Italy most of the theological and law books were printed in golf letter which was generally more formally gothic than the printing of the German workmen many of whose types indeed like that of the Subiaco works are of a transitional character this was notably the case with the early works printed at home and in a somewhat lesser degree at Augsburg in fact Gunther signers first type afterwards used by Schuessler is remarkably like the type of the before-mentioned Subiaco books in the Low Countries and Cologne which were very fertile of printed books gothic was the favorite the characteristic Dutch type as represented by the excellent printer jerrod Lu is very pronounced and uncompromising gothic this type was introduced into England by winking the word Caxton's successor and was used there with very little variation all through the 16th and 17th centuries and indeed into the 18th most of Caxton's own types are of an earlier character though they also much resemble Flemish or Cologne letter after the end of the 15th century the degradation of printing especially in Germany and Italy went on a pace and by the end of the sixteenth century there was no really beautiful printing done the best mostly French or low country was neat and clear but without any distinction the worst which perhaps was the English was a terrible falling off from the work of the earlier presses and things got worse and worse through the whole of the 17th century so that in the 18th printing was very miserably performed in England about this time an attempt was made notably by castle on who started business in London as a type founder in 1720 to improve the letter in form Castle ins type is clear and neat and fairly well designed he seems to have taken the letter of the Elsevier's of the 17th century for his model type cast from his matrices is still in everyday use in spite however of his praiseworthy efforts printing had still one last degradation to undergo the 17th century founts were bad rather negatively than positively but for the beauty of the earlier work they might have seemed tolerable it was reserved for the founders of the later 18th century to produce letters which are positively ugly and which it may be added are dazzling and unpleasant to the eye owing to the clumsy thickening and vulgar thinning of the lines for the 17th century letters are at least pure and simple in line the Italian bowed Oni and the Frenchman Dido were the leaders in this luckless change though our own Baskerville who was at work some years before them went much on the same lines but his letters though uninteresting and poor are not nearly so gross and vulgar as those of either the Italian or the Frenchman with this change the art of printing touched bottom so far as fine printing is concerned though paper did not get to its worst till about 1840 the Chiswick press in 1844 revived Cass Long's founts printing for Messrs Longman the diary of lady willoughby this experiment was so far successful that about 1850 Messrs Miller and Richard of Edinburgh were induced to cut punches for a series of old-style letters these and similar founts cast by the above firm and others have now come into general news centre obviously a great improvement on the ordinary modern style and use in England which is in fact the Bodoni type a little reduced in ugliness the design of the letters of this modern old style leaves a good deal to be desired and the whole effect is a little too gray owing to the fitness of the letters it must be remembered however that most modern printing is done by machinery on saw paper and not by the hand press and these somewhat wiry letters are suitable for the machine process which would not do justice to letters of more generous design it is discouraging to note that the improvement of the last 50 years is almost wholly confined to Great Britain here and there a book is printed in France or Germany with some pretension to good taste but the general revival of the old forms has made no way in those countries Italy is contentedly stagnant America has produced a good many showy books the typography paper and illustrations of which are however all wrong oddity rather than rational beauty and meaning being apparently the things sought for both in the letters and the illustrations to say a few words on the principles of design and typography it is obvious that legibility is the first thing to be aimed at in the forms of the letters this is best furthered by the avoidance of irrational swellings and spikey projections and by the using of careful purity of line even the Caslon type when enlarged shows great shortcomings in this respect the ends of many of the letters such as the T and E are hooked up in a vulgar and meaningless way instead of ending in the sharp and clear stroke of Jensen's letters there is a gross 'no sin the upper finishings of letters like the sea the a and so on an ugly pear-shaped swelling defacing the form of the letter in short it happens to this craft as to others that the utilitarian practice though it professes to avoid ornament still clings to a foolish because misunderstood conventionality deduced from what was once ornament and is by no means useful which title can only be claimed by artistic practice whether the art in it be conscious or unconscious in no characters is the contrast between the ugly and vulgar eligibility of the modern type and the elegance and legibility of the ancient more striking than in the Arabic numerals in the old print each figure has its definite individuality and one cannot be mistaken for the other in reading the modern figures the eyes must be strained before the reader can have any reasonable assurance that he has a five and eight or a three before him unless the press work is of the best this is awkward if you have to read bradshaw's guide in a hurry one of the differences between the fine type and the utilitarian must probably be put down to a misapprehension of a commercial necessity this is the narrowing of the modern letters most of Jensen's letters are designed within a square the modern letters are narrowed by a third or thereabout but while this gain of space very much hampers the possibility of beauty of design it is not a real gain for the modern printer throws the gain away by putting in ordinate ly wide spaces between his lines which probably the lateral compression of his letters renders necessary commercialism again compels the use of type to small in size to be comfortable reading the size known as long primer ought to be the smallest size used in a book meant to be read here again if the practice of leading were retrenched larger type could be used without enhancing the price of a book one very important matter in setting up for fine printing is the spacing that is the lateral distance of words from one another in good printing the spaces between words should be as near as possible equal it is impossible that they should be quite equal except in lines of poetry modern printers understand this but it is only practiced in the very best establishments but another point which they should attend to they almost always disregard this is the tendency to the formation of ugly meandering white lines or rivers in the page a blemish which can be nearly though not wholly avoided by care and forethought the desirable thing being the breaking of the line as in bonding masonry or brickwork the general solidity of a page is much to be sought for modern printers generally overdo the whites in the spacing a defect probably forced on them by the characterless quality of the letters for wear these are boldly and carefully designed and each letter is thoroughly individual in form the words may be set much closer together without loss of clearness no definite rules however accept the avoidance of rivers and excess of white can be given for the spacing which requires the constant exercise of judgment and taste on the part of the printer the position of the page on the paper should be considered if the book is to have a satisfactory look here once more the almost invariable modern practice is in opposition to a natural sense of proportion from the time when books first took their present shape till the end of the sixteenth century or indeed later the page so lay on the paper that there was more space allowed to the bottom and four margin then to the top and back of the paper the unit of the book being looked on as the two pages forming an opening the modern printer in the teeth of the evidence given by his own eyes considers the single page as the unit and prints the page in the middle of his paper only nominally so however in many cases since when he uses a headline he counts that in the result as measured by the eye being that the lower margin is less than the top one and that the whole opening has an upside-down look vertically and that laterally the page looks as if it were being driven off the paper the paper on which the printing is to be done is a necessary part of our subject of this it may be said that though there is some good paper made now it is never used except for very expensive books although it would not materially increase the cost in all but the very cheapest the paper that is used for ordinary books is exceedingly bad even in this country but is beaten in the race for vileness by that made in America which is the worst conceivable there seems to be no reason why ordinary paper should not be better made even allowing the necessity for a very low price but any improvement must be based on showing openly that the cheap article is cheap eg the cheap paper should not sacrifice toughness and durability to a smooth and white surface which should be indications of a delicacy of material and manufacture which would of necessity increase its cost one fruitful source of badness in paper is the habit that publishers have of eking out a thin volume by printing it on thick paper all most of the substance of cardboard a device which deceives nobody and makes a book very unpleasant to read on the whole a small book should be printed on paper which is as thin as may be without being transparent the paper used for printing the small highly ornamented French service books about the beginning of the sixteenth century is a model in this respect being thin tough and opaque however the fact must not be blinked that machine made paper cannot in the nature of things be made of so good a texture as that made by hand the ornamentation of printed books is too wide a subject to be dealt with fully here but one thing must be said on it the essential point to be remembered is that the ornament whatever it is whether picture or pattern work should form part of the page should be a part of the whole scheme of the book simple as this proposition is it is necessary to be stated because modern practice is to disregard the relation between the printing and the ornament altogether so that if the two are helpful to one another it is a mere matter of accident the do relation of letter to pictures and other ornament was thoroughly understood by the old printers so that even when the wood cuts are very rude indeed the proportions of the page still give pleasure by the sense of richness that the cuts and letter together convey when as is most often the case there is actual beauty in the cuts the books so ornamented are amongst the most delightful works of art that have ever been produced there for granted well-designed type do spacing of the lines and words and proper position of the page on the paper all books might be at least comely and well looking and if to these good qualities were added really beautiful ornament and pictures printed books might once again illustrate to the full the position of our society that a work of utility might be also a work of art if we care to make it so end of section 11 recording by Linda Johnson section 12 of Arts and Crafts essays this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by RIE in April 2017 bookbinding by TJ captain Sanderson modern bookbinding dates from the application of printing to literature and in essentials has remained unchanged to the present day though in those outward characteristics which appeal to the touch and to the eye and constitute binding in the artistic sense it has gone through many changes for better and for worse which in the opinion of the writer have resulted in the main in the acceleration of technical skill and in the death of artistic fancy the first operation of the modern binder is to fold or refold the printed sheet into a section and to gather the sections numbered or lettered at the foot in the proper order into a volume the sections are then taken one by one placed face downwards in a frame and sewn through the back by a continuous thread running backwards and forwards along the backs of the sections to upright strings fast and at regular intervals in the sewing frame this process unites the sections to one another in series one after the other and permits the perusal of the book by the simple turning of leaf after leaf upon the hinge formed by the thread and the back of the section a volume or a series of sections so treated the ends of the string being properly secured is essentially bound all that is subsequently done is done for the protection or for the decoration of the volume or of its cover the sides of a volume are protected by mill boards called shortly boards the boards themselves and the back are protected by a cover of leather vellum silk linen or paper wholly or in part the edges of the volume are protected by the projection of the board's beyond them at top bottom and fore edge and usually by being cut smooth and gilt a volume so bound and protected may be decorated by tooling or otherwise upon all the exposed surfaces upon the edges the sides and the back and may be designated by lettering upon the back or the sides the degree in which a bound book is protected and decorated will determine the class to which the binding will be long one in cloth binding the cover called a case is made apart from the book and is attached as a whole after the book has sown - in half binding the cover is built up for and on each individual book but the boards of which it is composed are only partly covered with the leather or other material which covers the back 3 in whole binding the boards are wholly covered with leather or other durable material which in half binding covers only a portion of them for in extra binding whole binding is advanced a stage higher by decoration of course in the various stages the details vary commensurately with the stage itself being more or less elaborate as the stage is higher or lower in the scale the process of extra binding set out in more detail is as follows one first two sections are folded or refolded - then endpapers sections of plain paper added at the beginning and end of the volume to protect the first and last the most exposed sections of printed matter constituting the volume proper having been prepared and added the sections are beaten or rolled or pressed to make them solid the end papers are usually added at a later stage and they are pasted on and not sewn but in the opinion of the writer it is better to add them at this stage and to sew them and not to paste them 3 then the sections are sewn has already described for when sewn the volume passes into the hands of the forwarder who 5 makes the back beating it round if the back is to be round and backing it or making it fan out from the centre to right and left and project at the edges to form a kind of Ridge to receive and to protect the edges of the board's which form the sides of the cover see the bank having been made the board's made of mill board and originally of wood for the protection of the sides are made and cut to shape and attached by lacing into them the ends of the strings upon which the book has been sewn seven the board's having been attached the edges of the book are now cut smooth and even at the top bottom and fore edge the edges of the board's being used as guides for a purpose in some cases the order is reversed and the edges are first cut and then the board's ate the edges may now be colored and gilt and if it is proposed to go fir or to decorate them with tooling they are so treated at this stage 9 the headband is next worked on at head and tail at the back lined with paper or leather or other material to keep the headband in its place and to strengthen the back itself the book is now ready to be covered tin if the book is covered with leather the leather is carefully paired all around the edges and along the line of the back to make the edges sharp and the joints free 11 the book having been covered the depression on the inside of the boards caused by the overlap of the leather is filled in with paper so that the entire inner surface may be smooth and even and ready to receive the first and last leaves of the endpapers which finally are cut to shape and paste it down leaving the borders only uncovered sometimes however the first and last leaves of the endpapers are of silk and the joint of leather in which case of course the end papers are not pasted down but the insides of the boards are independently treated and are covered sometimes with leather sometimes with silk or other material the book is now forwarded and passes into the hands of the finisher to be tooled or deaf rated or finished as it is called the declaration in gold on the surface of leather is wrought out bit by bit by means of small brass stamps called tools the steps of the process are shortly as follows twelve the pattern having been settled and worked out on paper it is transferred to or marked out on the various surfaces to which it is to be applied each surface is then prepared in succession and if large bit by bit to receive the gold 13 first the leather is washed with water or with vinegar 14 then the pattern is penciled over with glare white of egg beaten up and drained off or the surface is wholly washed with it 15 next it is smeared lightly with grease or oil 16 and finally the gold gold leaf is applied by a pad of cotton wool or a flat tin brush called a tip 17 the pattern visible through the gold is now re impressed or worked with the tools heated to about the temperature of boiling water and the unimpressed or a waste gold is removed by an oil drag leaving the pattern in gold and the rest of the leather clear these several operations are in England usually distributed among five classes of persons one the superintendent or a person responsible for the whole work to the sower usually a woman who folds Souls and makes the headbands 3 the book edge Gilder who guilds the edges usually a craft apart for the forwarder who performs all the other operations leading up to the finishing 5 the finisher who decorates and letters the volume after it is forwarded in Paris the work is still further distributed a special workman Coover oil being employed to prepare the leather for covering and to cover in the opinion of the writer the work as a craft of beauty suffers as do the workman from the allocation of different operations to different workmen the work should be conceived of as one and be wholly executed by one person or at most by two and especially should there be no distinction between finisher and forward between executed and artist the following technical terms may serve to call attention to the principal features of a bound book 1 the back the posterior edge of the volume upon which at the present time the title is usually placed formerly it was placed on the fore edge or side the back may be a convex or concave or flat be marked horizontally with bands was smooth from head to tail see tight the leather or other covering adhering to the back itself or hollow the leather or other covering not so adhering and D stiff or flexible to edges the 3 other edges of the book the top the bottom and the fore edge 3 bands the chords upon which the book is sewn and which if not let in or embed it in the back appear on it as parallel ridges the ridges are however usually artificial the real bands being led in to facilitate the sewing and their place is supplied by thin slips of leather cut to resemble them and glued on the back this process also enables to forwarded to give great sharpness and finish to this part of his work if he think it worthwhile for between bands the space between the bands five head and tail the top and bottom of the back six the headband and head cap the fillit of silk worked in buttonhole stitch at the head and tail and the cap or cover of leather over it the headband had its origin probably in the desire to strengthen the back and to resist to strain when a book is pulled by head or tail from the shelf seven boards the sides of the cover stiff or limp thick or thin in all degrees eight squares the projection of the board's beyond the edges of the book these may be shallow or deep in all degrees limited only by the purpose they have to fulfill and the danger they will themselves be exposed to if too deep nine borders the overlaps of leather on the insides of the boards ten proof the rough edges of leaves left uncut in cutting the edges to show where the original margin was and to prove that the cutting has not been too severe the life of book binding is in the dainty mutation of it's mutable elements back bands boards squares decoration these elements admit of almost endless variation singly and in combination in kind and in degree in fact however they are now almost always uniformly treated or worked up to one type or set of types this is the death of book binding as a craft of beauty the finish moreover or execution has outrun invention and is the great characteristic of modern book binding this again the inversion of the due order is in the opinion of the writer but as the carving on the tomb of a dead art and itself did a well bound beautiful book is neither of one type nor finished so that its highest praise is that had it been made by a machine it could not have been made better it is individual it is instinct with the hand of him who made it it is pleasant to feel to handle and to see it is the original work of an original mind working in freedom simultaneously with hand and heart and brain to produce the thing of use which all

much from that of mr. cranes article on decorative painting pages 39 to 51 mural painting need not as such consist of any one sort of painting more than another decorative painting does seem on the other hand to indicate a certain desire or undertaking to render the object painted more pleasant to the beholders eye from long habit however chiefly induced by the constant practice of the Italians of modern times mural painting has come to be looked upon as figure painting in fact the human figure exclusively on walls and no other sort of objects can sufficiently impart that dignity to a building which it seems to crave for I can think of no valid reason why a set of rooms or walls should not be decorated with animals in leo of humans as the late mr. trelawney used to call us one wall to be devoted to monkeys a second to be filled in with tigers a third to be given up to horses etc etc I know men in England and I believe some artists who would be delighted with the substitution but I hope the general sense of the public would be set against such subjects and the lowering effects of them on everyone the kind of humiliation we should feel at knowing them to exist I have been informed that in Berlin the walls of the rooms where the antique statues are kept have been painted with mixed subjects representing antique buildings with antique Greek views and landscapes to back up as it were the statues I must own it that without having seen the decoration in question I feel filled with extreme aversion for the plan the more so when one considers the extreme unlikelihood of the same being made tolerable in color at Berlin I have also been told that some painters in the north of England bitten with a desire to decorate buildings have painted one set of rooms with landscapes this without the least knowledge of the works in question as landscapes I must allow I regret there is it seems to me an unbridgeable chasm not to be passed between landscape art and the decoration of walls for the very essence of the landscape art is distance whereas the very essence of the wall picture is its solidity or at least it's not appearing to be a hole in the wall on the matter of subjects fit for painting on walls I may have a few words to say farther on in this paper but first I had better set down what little I have to advise with regard to the material and mode of executing the old-fashioned Italian or buon fresco I look upon as practically given up in this country and every other European country that has not a climate to equal Italy if the climate of Paris will not admit of this process how much less is our damp foggy changeable atmosphere likely to put up with it for many years it is true that the frescoes of William Dyce have lasted for some thirty years without apparent damage but also it is the case that the Queen's robing rooms in the House of Lords have been specially guarded against atmospheric changes of temperature next to real fresco there has been in repute for a time the water glass process in which Daniel mcLeese as great paintings have been executed I see no precise reason why these noble works should not last and defy climate for many many long years yet though from want of experience he very much endangered this durability through the too lavish application of the medium but in Germany the country of water glass the process is already in bad repute the third alternative spirit fresco or what we in England claim as the Gambier parry process as I understand superseded it I have myself painted in this system seven works on the walls of the Manchester Town Hall and have had no reason to complain of their behavior since beginning the series however a fresh change has come over the fortunes of mural art in the fact that in France what most strongly recommends itself to common sense the mural painters have now taken to painting on canvas which is afterwards cemented or what the French call mph they onto the wall white LED and oil with a very small admixture of rosin melted in oil are the ingredients used it is laid on cold and plentifully on the wall and on the back of the picture and the painting pressed down with a cloth or handkerchief nothing further being required saving to guard the edges of the canvas from curling up before the white LED has had time to harden the advantage of this process of cementing lies in the fact that with each succeeding year it must become harder and more like stone in its consistency the canvases may be prepared as if for oil painting and painted with common oil colors flatted or matted afterwards by gum ellamy and spiked oil or the canvas may be prepared with the gambia peri color and painted in that very matte medium the canvases should if possible be fine in texture as better adapted for adhering to the wall the advantage of this process is that should at any time through neglect damp invade the wall and the canvas show a tendency to get loose it would be easy to replace it or the canvas might be altogether detached from the wall and strained as a picture I must now return to the choice of subject a matter of much importance but on which it is difficult to give advice one thing however may be urged as a rule and that is that very dark or Rembrandt ask subjects are particularly unsuited for mural paintings I cannot go into the reasons for this but a slight experiment ought to satisfy the painter having once heard the principle enunciated that is if he belonged to the class likely to succeed at such work another see qín on as the subject is that the painter himself must be allowed to select it it is true that certain limitations may be accorded for instance the artist may be required to select a subject with certain tendencies in it but the actual invention of the subject and working out of it must be his in fact the painter himself is the only judge of what he is likely to carry out well and of the subjects that are paintable then much depends on whom the works are for if for the general public and carried out with their money care it seems to me but fair should be taken that the subjects are such as they can understand and take interest in if on the contrary you are painting four highly cultured people with a turn for Greek myths it is quite another thing then such a subject as arrows for approaching his brother and rose for his coldness might be one offering opportunities for shades of sentiments suited to the givers of the Commission's concerned but for such as have not been trained to entertain these refinements downright facts either in history or in sociology are calculated most to excite the imagination it is not always necessary for the spectator to be exact in his conclusions I remember once at Manchester the member of a Young Men's Christian Association had come to a meeting in the Great Hall some of them were there too soon and so were looking around the room one observed what's this about his friend answered fallen off a ladder the police are running him in well this was not quite correct a wounded young Danish chieftain was being hurried out of Manchester on his comrades shoulders with a view to save his life the Phrygian helmets of the Danes indicated neither firemen or policemen but the idea was one of misfortune and care bestowed on it and did as well and showed sympathy in a somewhat uncultivated though well-intentioned class of Lancastrians on the other hand I have noticed that subjects that interest infallibly all classes educated or illiterate are religious subjects it is not a question of piety but comes from the simple breadth of poetry and humanity usually involved in this class of subject that the amount of religiosity and either spectator or producer has nothing to do with the feeling is clear if we consider the span are one of the most religious peoples ever known and yet their art is singularly deficient in this quality were there ever to greater painters as wanting in the sacred feeling as Velazquez and Maria and yet in all probability they were more religious than ourselves it only remains for me to point to the fact that mural painting when it has been practiced jointly by those who were at the same time easel painters has invariably raised those painters to far higher flights and instances of style than they seemed capable of in the smaller path take the examples left us say by Raphael and Michelangelo or some of the earlier masters such as the fool monatti of cinderelly compared with his specimens in our National Gallery or the works left on walls by even less favored artists such as dominicano and Andrea del Sarto or the French De La Hoya's mi Cielo or our own great painters dice and mcLeese frescoes the same rise in style the same improvement is everywhere to be noticed both in drawing in color and in flesh painting F maddox Brown end of section 13 section 14 of Arts and Crafts essays this is a

Graffiato or scruffy toe mean scratched and scratched work is the oldest form of graphic expression and surface decoration used by man the terms graffito is however specially used to denote decoration scratched or incised upon plaster or potter's clay while still soft and for beauty of effect depends either solely upon lines thus incised according to design with the resulting contrasts of surfaces or partly upon such lines and contrasts and partly upon an undercoat of color revealed by the incisions while again the means at disposal may be increased by varying the colors of the undercoat in accordance with the design of the Potters graffito I have no experience but it is my present purpose briefly and practically to examine the method special aptitudes and limitations of polychrome scruffy toe as applied to the plasterers craft first then as to method given the wall intended to be treated granted the completion of the scheme of decoration the cartoons having been executed in several colors and the outlines firmly pricked and further all things being ready for beginning work hack off any existing plaster from the wall when Behr rake and sweep out the joints thoroughly when clean give the wall as much water as it will drink lay the course coat leaving the face rough in order to make a good key for the next coat when sufficiently set fix your cartoon in its destined position with slate nails pounce through the pricked outlines remove the cartoon replace the nails in the register holes mark in with a brush in white oil paint the spaces for the different colors as shown in the cartoon and pounced in outline on the coarse coat placing the letters b ry etc as the case may be in order to show the plasterer where to lay the different colors black red yellow etc give the wall as much water as it will drink lay the color coat in accordance with the lettered spaces on the coarse coat taking care not to displace the register nails and leaving plenty of key for the final surface coat in laying the color coat calculate how much of the color surface it may be advisable to get on the wall as the same duration of time should be maintained throughout the work between the laying of the color coat and the following on with the final surface coat for this reason if the color code sets hard before the final coat is laid it will not be possible to scrape up the color to its full strength wherever it may be revealed by incision of the design when sufficiently set ie in about 24 hours follow on with the final surface coat only laying as much as can be cut and cleaned up in a day when this is sufficiently steady fix up the cartoon in its registered position pounce through the pricked outlines remove the cartoon and cut the design in the surface coat before it sets then if your register is correct you will cut through two different colors according to the design and in the course of a few days the work should set as hard and homogeneous as stone and as damp proof as the nature of things permits the three coats above referred to may be gauged as follows course coat two or three of sharp clean sand to one of Portland to be laid about 3/4 inch in thickness this code is to promote an even suction and to keep back damp color coat one of color to one and a half of old Portland to be laid about 1/8 inch in thickness specially prepared distemper colors should be used and amongst such may be mentioned golden ochre turkey red Indian red manganese black lime blue and umber final surface coat aberthol lime and Salina tick cement both sifted through a fine sieve the proportions of the gauge depend upon the heat of the line or Parian cement sifted as above air slate for 24 hours and gauged with water colored with ochre so as to give a creamy tone when the plaster dries out or three of selina tic cement - two of silver sand both sifted as above this may be used for outdoor work individual taste and experience must decide as to the thickness of the final coat if laid between 1/8 inch and 1/12 inch and the lines cut with slanting edges a sidelight gives emphasis to the finished result making the outlines tell alternately as they take the light or cast a shadow plasterers small tools of various kinds and knife blades fixed in tool handles will be found suited to the simple craft of cutting and clearing off the final surface coat but as to this a craftsman finds his own tools by experience and indeed by the same acquired perception must be interpreted all the foregoing directions and specially that ambiguous word dear to the writers of recipes sufficient thus far method now as to special aptitudes and limitations Sakai feet don't work may claim a special aptitude for design whose centre of aim is line it has no beauty of material like glass no mystery of surface like mosaic no preeminence of subtly woven tone and color like tapestry yet it gives freer play to line than any of these mentioned fields of design and a cartoon force graffito can be executed in facsimile undeviated by warp and Wolfe and unchecked by angular Tessa ray or lead lines true hardness of design may easily result from this aptitude indeed is to a certain extent inherent to the method under examination but in overcoming this danger and in making the most of this aptitude is the artists discovered graffito from its very nature asserts the wall that is preserves the solid appearance of the building which it is intended to decorate the decoration is in the wall rather than on the wall it seems to be organic the inner surface of the actual wall changes color in puzzling but orderly sequence as the upper surface passes into expressive lines and spaces delivers its simple and then relapses into silence but whether in signs with intricate design or left in plain relieving spaces the wall receives no further treatment the marks of float trowel and scraper remain and combine to make a natural surface it compels the work to be executed in situ the studio must be exchanged for the scaffold and the result should justify the inconvenience however carefully the scheme of decoration may be designed slight yet important modifications and readjustments will probably be found necessary in the transfer from cartoon to wall and though the ascent of the scaffold may seem an indignity to those who prefer to suffer vicariously in the execution of their works and though we of the 19th know as Giannini of the 15th century knew that painting pictures is the proper employment of a gentleman and with a velvet on his back he may paint what he pleases still the fact remains that if decoration is to attain that inevitable fitness for its place which is the fulfillment of design this proper employment of a gentleman must be postponed and velvet exchanged for blouse it compels a quick sure manner of work and this quickness of execution due to the setting nature of the final coat and to the consequent necessity of working against time gives an appearance of strenuous ease to the firm incisions and spaces by which the design is expressed and a living energy of line to the whole again the setting nature of the color coat suggests and naturally lends itself to an occasional addition in the shape of mosaic to the means at disposal and a little glitter here and there will be found to go a long way in giving points of emphasis and play to large surfaces it compels the artist to adopt a limited color scheme a limitation and yet one which may almost be welcomed as an aptitude for of colors in decorative work multiplication may be said to be a vexation finally the limitations of scruffy toe as a method of expression are the same as those of all in size or line work by it you can express ideas and suggest life but you cannot realize cannot imitate the natural objects on which your graphic language is founded the means at disposal are too scanty item white lines and spaces relieved against and slightly raised on a colored ground colored lines and spaces slightly sunk on a white surface intricacy relieved by simplicity of line and again either relieved by plain spaces of colored ground or white surface indeed they are simple means yet line still remains the radiused manner of graphic expression and if in the strength of limitation our past masters of the Arts and Crafts have had power to free arouse dilate by their simple record of hand and soul we also should be able to bring forth new achievement from old method and to suggest the life and express the ideas which sway the latter

labor to a certain point he has to entrust it to another in order to render it permanent and useful if he models in and wishes it burnt into terracotta the shrinkage and risk in firing and the danger in transport to the kill are a nightmare to him if he wishes it cast in plaster the distortion by waste moulding or the cost of piece moulding are serious grievances to him considering that after all he has but a friable result and though this latter objection is minimized by mrs. Laxton Clarke's ingenious process of endure 18 plaster yes I am persuaded that most modelers would prefer to complete their work in some permanent form with their own hands having this desirable end in view I wish to draw their attention to some disused processes which once largely prevailed by which the artist is enabled to finish and render durable and bendable his work without having to part with it or pay for another's aid these old processes are modeling in stucco duro and gesso stucco duro although of very ancient practice is now practically a lost art the materials required are simply well burnt and slacked lime a little fine sand and some finely ground unburnt limestone or white marble dust these are well tempered together with water and beaten up with sticks until a good workable paste results in fact the preparation of the materials is exactly the same as that described by Vitruvius who recommends that the fragments of marble be sifted into three degrees of fineness using the coarser for the rough passage the medium for the general modeling and the finest for the surface finish after which it can be polished with chalk and powdered lime if necessary indeed to so fine a surface can this material be brought and so highly can it be polished that he mentions its use for mirrors the only caution that is needful to give is to avoid working too quickly 4s Sir Henry Wotton King James's ambassador at Venice who greatly advocated the use of stucco duro observed the stucco work makes his figures by addition and the Carver by subtraction and to avoid to great risk of the work cracking and drying these additions must be made slowly where the relief is great if the relief is very great or if a figure of large dimensions is essayed it may be needful even to delay the drying of the stucco and the addition of a little stiff paste will ensure this so that the work may be consecutively worked upon for many days from the remains of the stucco work of classic times left us we can realize how perfectly workable this material was and if you examine the plaster casts taken from some most delicate low relief plaques in stucco exhumed some 10 years ago near the villa farness ena at Rome or the rougher and ready are fragments of stucco duro itself from some italo-greek tombs both of which are to be seen in the South Kensington Museum you will at once be convinced of the great applicability of the process with the decadence of classic art some portion of the process seems to have been lost and the use of pounded travertine was substituted for white marble but as the BAS theater levy of the early Renaissance were mostly decorated with color this was not important the ground colors seemed generally to have been laid on whilst the stucco was wet as in fresco and the details heightened with tempera or encaustic colors sometimes with accessories enriched in gilt gesso of which hereafter many remains of these exist and in the nineteenth winter exhibition of the Royal Academy there were no less than twelve very interesting examples of it exhibited and in the South Kensington Museum are some few moderately good illustrations of it it was not however until the 16th century that the old means of producing the highly finished white stuck eye were rediscovered and this revival of the art as an architectonic accessory is due to the ex you may the baths of titus under Leo the tenth Raphael and Giovanni da adeney were then so struck with the beauty of the stucco work thus exposed to view that it's reuse was at once determined upon and the logic of the Vatican was the first result of many experiments though the reinvented process seems to have been precisely that described by Vitruvius naturally in the art of modeling in stucco at once became popular the patronage of it by the Pope and the practice of it by the artists who worked for him gave it the highest sanction and hardly a building of any architectural importance was erected in Italy during the sixteenth century that did not bear evidence of the artistic craft of the stuck Authority there has just autumn 1889 arrived at the South Kensington Museum a model of the central hall of the villa madama in Rome thus decorated by Giulio Romano and Giovanni de Denis which exemplifies the adaptability of the process and in this model cavalieri Mariani has employed stucco duro for its execution showing - how high a pitch of finish this material is capable of being carried indeed it was used by Goldsmith's for the models of their craft as being less liable to injury than wax yet capable of receiving equally delicate treatment and benvenuto cellini modelled the celebrated button with that magnificent big diamond in the middle for the cope of Pope Clement with all its intricate detail in this material how minut this work of some six inches diameter was may be inferred from chale knees own description of it above the diamond in the center of the piece was shown God the Father seated in the act of giving the benediction below were three children who with their arms upraised were supporting the jewel one of them in the middle was in full relief the other two in half relief all round I set a crowd of cherubs in divers attitudes a mantle undulated to the wind around the figure of the father from the folds of which cherubs peeped out and there were many other ornaments besides which adds he and for once we may believe him made a very beautiful effect at the same time figures larger than life indeed colossal figures were executed in it and in our own country the Italian artists brought over by our Henry the eighth worked in that style for his vanished Palace of Nonsuch gradually stucco duro fell into disuse and course party tree and modeled plaster ceilings became in later years its sole and degenerate descendants gesso is really a painter's art rather than a sculptors and consists in impasto painting with a mixture of plaster of Paris or whiting in glue the composition with which the ground of his pictures is laid after roughly modeling the higher forms with toe or some fibrous material incorporated with the gesso but it is questionable if gesso is the best vehicle for any but the lowest relief by it the most subtle and delicate variation of surface can be obtained and the finest lines penciled analogous in fact to the fine putzel pot work in porcelain its chief use in early times was in the accessories of painting as the NIMBY attributes and jewelry of the personage represented and it was almost entirely used as a groundwork for gilding upon abundant illustration of this usage will be found in the pictures by the early Italian masters in the National Gallery the retable zuv altars were largely decorated in this material a notable example being that still existing in Westminster Abbey many of the gorgeous accessories to the panoply of war in medieval times such as decorative shields and the lighter military accoutrement were thus ornamented in low relief and on the high crude and high peaks saddles it was abundantly displayed in the 16th century work of Germany it seems to have received an admixture of finely pounded lithographic stone or hone stone by which it became of such hardness as to be taken for sculpture in these materials it's chief use however was for the decoration of the caskets and ornamental objects which make up the refinement of domestic life and the base representative of it which figures on our picture-frames claims a noble ancestry its tenacity when well-prepared is exceedingly great and I have used it on glass on polished marble on porcelain and such like non absorbent surfaces from which it can scarcely be separated without destruction of its base indeed for miniature art gesso possesses innumerable advantages not presented by any other medium but it is hardly available for larger works time and space will not permit my entering more fully into these two forms of plastic art but seeing that we are annually receiving such large accessions to the numbers of our modelers and as of course it is not possible for all these to achieve success in or find a means of living by the art of sculpture in marble I have sought to indicate a home art means by which at very moderate cost they can bring their labors in useful form before the world and at the same time learn and live end of section 15 recording by Linda Johnson sections sixteen of arts-and-crafts essays this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org of cast-iron WR levy cast-iron is nearly our humblest material and with associations less than all artistic for it has been almost hopelessly vulgarized in the present century so much so that mr. Ruskin with his fearless use of paradox to shock one into thought has laid it down that cast iron is an artistic solecism impossible for architectural service now or at any time and yet although we can never claim for iron the beauty of bronze it is in some degree a parallel material and has been used with appreciation in many ways up to the beginning of this century iron was already known in Sussex at the coming of the Romans who helped this county and Kent in out-of-the-way farmhouses iron fire backs to open hearts find specimens of the founders art are still in daily use as they have been for 300 years or more some have Gothic diapers and meanders of vine with heraldic badges and initials and are evidently cast from models made in the 15th century patterns that remained in stock and were cast from again and again others of the following centuries have coat arms and supporters salamanders in the flames figures a triton or centre or even a scene the judgment of Solomon or marriage of Alexander or more appropriately near pattern work causes of flowers and the like however crude they may be and some are absurdly inadequate as sculpture the sense of treatment and relief suitable to the material never fails to give them a fit interest with these backs cast-iron fire dogs are often found of which some gothic examples also remain simple and form with soft double modeling later these were often a mere obelisk on a base surmounted by a ball or a bird or rude terminal figures sometimes a more delicate full figure the limbs well together so that nothing projects from the general post like form and within their limitations they are not without grace and character in French church near tomb bridge are several cast-iron grave slabs about six feet long by half that width perfectly flat one with a single shield of arms and some letters others with several they are quite successful natural and not in the least vulgar iron railings are the most usual form of cast iron as an accessory to architecture the early examples of these and London are thoroughly fit for their purpose and their material sturdily simple forms of gently swelling curves or with slightly rounded reliefs the original railing that st. poles of Lambor hurst iron is the finest of these a large portion of which around the west front was removed in 1873 another example encloses the portico of st. martin's in the fields the railing of the central area of Berkeley Square is beautifully designed and there are instances here as n grows veneer Square where cast iron is used together with wrought a difficult combination balcony railings and staircase balustrade are quite general to houses of the late 18th century refined and thoroughly good of their kind they never failed to please and never of course imitate wrought iron the design is always direct unpretentious and effortless in a manner that became at this time quite a tradition the verandas also of which there are so many in Piccadilly or Mayfair with posts weeded and of delicate profiles are of the same kind confessedly cast iron and never without the characterizing dullness of the forms so that they have no jutting members to be broken off to expose a repulsive jagged fracture the opposite of all these qualities may be found in the expensive looking railing on the embankment enclosing the gardens whose tiny fretted and fretful forms invite an experiment often successful it must be understood that cast iron should be merely a flat lattice like design obviously cast in panels or a plain post and rail construction with cast uprights and terminal knobs tenon into rails so that there is no doubt of straightforward unaffected fitting the British Museum screen may be taken to instance how ample ability will not redeem false principles of design the construction is not clear nor are the forms sufficiently simple the result being only a high order of commonplace grandeur even the land posts set up in the beginning of the century for oil lights a few of which have not yet been improved away from back streets show the same care for appropriate form some of the Pall Mall clubs again have well designed candelabra of a more pretentious kind also London and Waterloo bridges the fire grates both with hogs and clothes fronts that came into use about the middle of the last century are decorated all over the field with tiny flutings beads and leaf mouldings sometimes even with little figure medallion and carry delicacy to its limit the better examples are entirely successful both in form and in the ornamentation which adapted to this new purpose does no more than gracefully acknowledge its debt to the past just as the best ornament at all times is neither original nor copied it must recognize tradition and add something which shall be the tradition of the future the method followed is to keep the general form quite simple and the area is flat while the decoration just an embroidery of the surface there's one of substance and in the slightest possible relief other larger greats there were with plain surfaces simply framed with moldings even the sculptor has not refused iron Pliny says there were two statutes in rhodes one of iron and copper and the other a hercules entirely of iron in the palace at prague there is a st. george horsten armed the work of a 14th century the quality's natural to iron which it has to offer for a sculpture may best be appreciated by seeing the examples at the Museum of geology in German Street on the staircase there are two large dogs two ornamental candelabra and two figures the dogs although not fine as sculpture are well treated in mass and surface for the metal in the same Museum there is a small statue still better for surface and finish a French work signed and dated 1841 and therefore half an antique but for ordinary foundry work without surface finish probably the most appropriate certainly the most available method the little lions on the outer rail at the British Museum are proof of how sufficient feeling for design will dignify any material for any object they are by the late alfred stevens and are thoroughly iron beasts so slightly modeled that they would be only blocked out for bronze in the geological museum are also specimens of berlin in Ilsan berg manufacturer they served to point the moral that ingenuity is not art nor tenuity refinement the question of rust is a difficult one the oxide not being an added beauty like the patina acquired by bronze yet the decay of cast iron is much less than is generally thought especially on large smooth surfaces if the casting has been once treated by an oil bath or a coating of hot car the celebrated iron pillar of delhi some 20 feet high has stood for 14 centuries and shows that has said little evidence of decay it will be interesting to see how cast spheres of good iron would be affected in our climate if occasionally coated with a lacquer in painting the range of tints best approved is black through gray to white the simple- gray gives a pleasant unobtrusive miss the well design iron work over the northern station in Paris whereas our almost universal Indian red is a very bad choice a hot coarse color you must see it and be irritated and it is surely the only color that gets worse as it bleaches in the Sun gilding is suitable to a certain extent but for internal work the homely black leading cannot be better to put together the results obtained in our examination of examples 1 the metal must be both good and carefully manipulated to the design must be thought out through the material and its traditional methods 3 the pattern must have the ornament modelled not carved as is almost universally the case now carving in wood being entirely unfit to give the soft suggestive relief required both by the nature of the sand mold into which it is impressed and the crystalline structure of the metal and cast for flat surfaces like great fronts may be decorated with some intricacy if the relief is delicate but the relief must be less than the basis of attachment so that the molding may be easily practicable and no portions invite one to test how easily they might be detached five objects in the round must have a simple and substantial bounding form with but little ornament and that only suggested this applies equally to figures in them homogeneous structures of the first importance six when possible the surface should be finished and left as a metal casting it may however be entirely guilt if

Arts and Crafts essays this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by julie barkley of dyeing as an art by william morris dyeing is a very ancient art from the earliest time of the ancient civilizations till within about 40 years ago there had been no essential change in it and not much change of any kind up to the time of the discovery of the process of Prussian blue dying in about 1810 it was known as a pigment 30 or 40 years earlier the only changes in the art were the result of the introduction of the American insect dye cochineal which gradually superseded the European one Hermes and the American wood dyes now known as log wood and Brazil wood the latter differs little from the Asiatic and African red saunders and other red dye woods the former has cheapened and worsened black dyeing insofar as it has taken the place of the indigo VAT as a basis the American quercetin bark gives us also a useful additional yellow dye these changes and one or two others however did little towards revolutionizing the art that revolution was left for our own days and resulted from the discovery of what are known as the aniline dyes deduced by a long process from the plants of the coal measures of these dyes it must be enough to say that their discovery while conferring the greatest honor on the abstract science of chemistry and while doing great service to capitalists in their hunt after profits has terribly injured the art of dying and for the general public has nearly destroyed it as an art henceforward there is an absolute divorce between the commercial process and the art of dying anyone wanting to produce dyed textiles with any artistic quality in them must entirely forego the modern and commercial methods in favour of those which are at least as old as Pliny who speaks of them as being old in his time now in order to dye textiles in patterns or otherwise we need four colors to start with to it blue red yellow and brown green purple black and all intermediate shades can be made from a mixture of these colors blue is given us by indigo and wode which do not differ in color in the least their chemical product being the same woad may be called northern indigo and indigo tropical or subtropical Cole would note that until the introduction of Prussian blue about 1810 there was no other blue dye except this indica tene which could be called a dye the other blue dyes were mere stains which would not bear the Sun for more than a few days red is yielded by the insect dyes kemi's lac dye and cochineal and by the vegetable dye matter of these camis is the king brighter than matter and at once more permanent and more beautiful than cochineal the latter on an Illumina spaces gives a rather cold crimson and on a tin basis a rather hot scarlet for example the dress code of a line officer mater yields on wool a deep-toned blood-red somewhat brick II intending to scarlet on cotton and linen all imaginable shades of red according to the process it is not of much use in dyeing silk which it is apt to blind ie it takes off the gloss lac dye gives a hot and not pleasant scarlet as may be noted in a private militia man's coat the French liner's trousers by the way are or were dyed with matter so that their countrymen sometimes call them matter wearers but their cloth is somewhat too cheaply dyed to do credit to the dry sultry besides these permanent red dyes there are others produced from woods called in the Middle Ages by their general name of Brazil whence the name of the American country because the conquerors found so much dying wood growing there some of these wood dyes are very beautiful in color but unluckily they are none of them permanent as you may see by examining the beautiful stuffs of the 13th and 14th centuries at the South Kensington Museum in which you will scarcely find any red but plenty of fawn color which is in fact the wood red of 500 years ago thus faded if you turn from them to the Gothic tapestries and note the reds in them you will have the measure of the relative permanence of Kermes red and Brazil the tapestry Reds being all died with Kermes and still retaining the greater part of their color the medieval dyers must be partly excused however because Brazil is especially a silk kermy is sharing somewhat in the ill qualities of matter for silk though I have dyed silk in Kermes and got very beautiful and powerful colors by means of it yellow dyes are chiefly given us by weld sometimes called wild mignonette where Citroen bark mentioned above and old fuss stick an American dye would of these weld is much the prettiest and is the yellow silk dye par excellence though it dyes will well enough but yellow dyes are the Communists to be met with in nature and our fields and hedgerows bear plenty of greening weeds as our forefathers called them since they used them chiefly for greening blue bull and cloth for as you may well believe they being good colorists had no great taste for yellow woollen stuff Dyer's broom saw wart the twigs of the poplar the OC ER and the birch heather broom flowers and twigs we'll all of them give yellows of more or less permanence of these I have tried poplar and OC or twigs which both gave a strong yellow but the former not a very permanent one speaking generally yellow dyes are the least permanent of all as once more you may see by looking at an old tapestry in which the greens have always faded more than the Reds or blues the best yellow dyes however lose only their brighter shade the lemon color and leave a residual of brownish yellow which still makes a kind of green over the blue Brown is best got from the roots of the walnut tree or in their default from the green husks of the nuts this material is especially best for saddening as the old dyers used to call it the best and most enduring blacks were also done with this simple dye stuff the goods being first dyed in the indigo or Road VAT till they were a very dark blue and then browned into black by means of the walnut root cat achoo the in-space ated juice of a plant or plants which comes to us from India also gives rich and useful permanent Browns of various shades green is obtained by dyeing of blue of the required shade in the indigo VAT and then greening it with a good yellow dye adding what else may be necessary as for example matter to modify the color according to taste purple is got by bluing in the indigo VAT and afterwards by a bath of cochineal or Kermes or matter all intermediate shades of claret and Marie and russet can be got by these drugs helped out by saddening black as aforesaid is best made by dyeing dark blue wool with brown and walnut is better than iron for the brown part because the iron Brown is apt to rot the fiber as once more you will see in some pieces of old tapestry or old Persian carpets where the black is quite perished or at least in the case of the carpet gone down to the knots all intermediate shades can as aforesaid be got by blending of these prime colors or by using weak paths of them for instance all shades of flesh color can be got by means of weak paths of matter and walnut saddening matter or cochineal mixed with Wells gives us orange and with saddening all imaginable shades between yellow and red including the Amber's maize color etc the Crimson's in Gothic tapestries must have been got by dyeing camis over pale shades of blue since the crimson red dye cochineal had not yet come to Europe a word or two entirely unscientific about the process of this old-fashioned or artistic dyeing in the first place all dyes must be soluble colors differing in this respect from pigments most of which are insoluble and are only very finely divided as for example ultramarine umber Tara felt next dyes may be divided into those which need a mordant and those which do not or as the old chemist Bancroft very conveniently expresses it in two adjectives and substantive dyes indigo is the great substantive dye indigo has to be D oxidized and thereby made soluble in which state it loses its blue color in proportion as the solution is complete the goods are plunged into this solution and worked in it between two waters as the phrase goes and when exposed to the air the indigo they have got on them is oxidised and once more becomes insoluble the process is repeated to the required shade is got all shades of blue can be got by this means from the pale watch it as our forefathers called it up to the blue which the 18th century French Dyer is called blued alpha navy blue is the polite urn aim for it today in England I must add that though this seems an easy process the setting of the blue VAT is a ticklish job and requires I should say more experience than any other dyeing process the brown dyes walnut and Kotetsu need no mordant and our substantive dyes some of the yellows can also be died without important but are much improved by it the red dyes Kermes and madder and the yellow dye weld are especially mordant or adjective dyes they are all dyed on an Illumina spaces to put the matter plainly the goods are worked in a solution of alum usually with a little acid added and after an interval of a day or two aging are dyed in a bath of the dissolve dye stuff a lake is thus formed on the fiber which is in most cases very durable The effect of this Morton ting of the fiber is clearest seen in the mattering of printed cotton goods which are first printed with aluminous mordant's of various degrees of strength or with iron if black is needed or a mixture of iron with alumina for purple and then dyed wholesale in the matter back the result being that the parts which have been mordanted come out various shades of red etc according to the strength or composition of the mordant while the unmoored intent parts remain a dirty pink which has to be cleared into white by soaping and exposure to the Sun and air which process both brightens and fixes the diet parts Pliny saw this going on in Egypt and it puzzled him very much that a cloth dyed in one color should come out colored diversely that reminds me to say a word on the fish die of the ancients it was a substantive dye and behaved somewhat as indigo it was very permanent the color was a real purple in the modern sense of the word ie a color or shades of a color between red and blue real Byzantine books which are written on purple vellum give you some at least of its shades the ancients you must remember used words for color in a way that seems vague to us because they were generally thinking of the tone rather than the tint when they wanted to specify a red dye they would not use the word purpurea s-- but coats Aeneas ie Scarlet of Kermes the art of dying I am bound to say is a difficult one kneading for its practice of good craftsmen with plenty of experience matching a color by means of it isn't agreeable but somewhat anxious game to play as to the artistic value of these dye stuffs most of which together with the necessary mordant alumina the world discovered in early times I mean early historical times I must tell you that they all make in their simplest forms beautiful colors they need no muddling into artistic usefulness when you need your colors bright as I hope you usually do and they can be modified and toned without dirtying as the foul blotches of the capitalist dire cannot be like all dyes they are not eternal the Sun in lighting them and beautifying them consumes them yet gradually and for the most part kindly as to use my example for the last time in this paper you will see if you look at the Gothic tapestries in the drawing-room at Hampton Court these colors in fading still remain beautiful and never even after long-wear pass into nothingness through that stage of livid ugliness which distinguishes the commercial dyes as nuisances even more than their short and by no means merry life I may also note that no textiles dyed blue or green otherwise than indigo keep an agreeable color by candlelight many quite bright greens turning into sheer drab a fashionable blue which simulates indigo turns into a slaty purple by candlelight and Prussian blues are also much damaged by it I accept from this condemnation a commercial green known as a gas green which is as abominable as its name both in daylight and Gaslight and indeed one would almost expect it to make unlighted midnight is William Morris end of section

Bulk Electrolysis
all right so that's chapter seven in a very brief nutshell you can read it I would read it at some point because I think it's still interesting stuff and there's more than just chronal potentiometry in there but that's the basic idea let's um we doing a Time think we've got time to start this I started back in chapter 10 the idea is here with bulk electrolysis and the reason we're talking about current first is that we sometimes use current constant current methods invol electrolysis as well as constant potential methods so that's the idea now you know often in the point of as I said in the notes the point of the all the experiments really previous to that now the point of doing the electrolysis was only to get a measurable signal we did electrolysis to see a current flow that will give us a signal to measure and so we really didn't want the electrolysis to change the concentration of the species in solution we wanted them to stay at the bulk level so that we had a baseline in bulk electrolytic methods the focus has changed we want to actually use electrochemistry to cause a change in the overall level why would we want to do that one thing is if we want to provide increased analytical sensitivity if we have a very small amount of material in a in some system perhaps a way to increase the sensitivity is to use all that sample that we can electroly all of it to increase the sensitivity if we have a very tiny amount rather than just a small fraction of it like we normally do the other major reason is if we're doing some sort of electrosynthesis methods we don't want to synthesize really tiny amounts we want to synthesize as much as we can and that means transforming as much of our starting materials to products is is possible so we want to maximize our ability to do that transformation and that relies on what we call Bulk electrolysis by doing a bulk electrolysis often we can examine chemical reactions for example one way to study what happens when we do say a reduction process and then with an accompanying follow-up reaction is to do a bulk electrolysis let the reaction occur and then do some other method let's say chromatography to analyze the products and so by doing bulk electrolysis we can do the whole system study the products and get some information about what's going on a fourth thing that we want to do is separations we can use electrolysis to separate two or more different things by electrolyzing one component of the system are some of the components of the system we can separ effective separation between the two things the important thing with all these types of methods that they're all characterized by large large area to volume uh relationships where area is the electrode area the volume is the volume of solution so unlike that what we've done in the past where we've made the electrode area very small compared to the volume here the goal will be to make the electric area as large as feasibly possible while minimizing the volume of the solution so that we can do our electrolysis and efficient and as rapidly as possible so large electrodes large voltage large currents instead of microamps and nanoamps we're talking about amps and milliamps sometimes kiloamps of of things so large value of these things these are what they're not definitely not what they'd call Micro electrode techniques remember we said there is kind of an oldfashioned use of the word micro electrodes to refer to electrodes of centimeter size and so on these are electrodes that are major size and maybe and and so on sometimes so anything bigger than a centimeter and so on often would not be microelectrodes now there's two two as I said there's two ways of doing this one is as we've already examined a lot of the ideas previously using control potential methods and these are nice especially for smaller scale bulk electrolyses in other words we're we're doing sort of bench scale reactions uh where we can use reasonable amounts of currents and voltages to do with the reaction now the a lot of times the difference between these larger bulk electrolytics processes and the analytical processes that we often have to be much more careful about cell designs and layouts because the currents are larger we have more IR drop possibilities uh we have problems with maybe solution heating we have problems with uh using perhaps larger voltages and larger currents which means safety problems we don't want to electrocute our cells when we're doing these things and so we want to be very careful about uh cell for example let's draw a little bit of a cell that we might use that would not be necessarily the ideal cell but gives you some of the ideas of the problems you might have a Mercury pool as our working electrode so you hear right away you've seen that's a big you the bottom of the beaker is covered with Mercury so that's a big electrode a few uh tens or hundreds of square centimeters the auxiliary electrode often is in a separate compartment separated by usually a glass frit why is that well remember whenever we do a reaction at the sub or the working electrode an equal and opposite reaction has to OCC occur on the auxiliary electrode the same amount of current has to flow out of both electrodes so if we're doing a reduction at the Mercury we have to do an oxidation of the auxiliary if we're doing a large fraction of the possible Rea of the system that means there's a lot of products being formed at the auxiliary electrod and what we usually do not want to have happen is the products of the auxiliary reaction diffusing into the working electric compartment and causing an interference and what that would do especially is causing interference that would change with time so for example suppose we're doing a reduction a common process here might be we might be making um oxygen gas at the auxiliary electrod or even you know something like chlorine gas if we had a which which would be not ideal usually be oxygen gas would be bubbling off the pH would change dramatically in that compartment it would go um very low values and this would cause the ph and the so we don't want to mix those two compartments keep them separated so we have a frit here to do that so frit allows the current to flow between the two electrodes but not allow solution to be mixed sometimes we put in what they call a depolarizer some solution species that's easy to oxidize to reduce and that minimize the over potential required at the auxiliary electrode and so ra so instead of making oxygen gas you might might just make some reaction occurring in that as a useful way instead of having a working electrode just in solution often what they have is what they call a lugan hobber capillary you'd have a reference electrode here and then a a capillary or a tube with a very pointed capillary end l u g i n h a r capillary the idea is that again remember how we talked about the reference electrode senses the working electrode potential because there's a large amount of current flow the potential drop can be quite Steep and so by putting that capillary very close to the working electrode we can measure as accurately as possible that potential drop and correct for it and then you usually in systems like this we're often stirring the solution so you'll have in there a stir bar stir bar helps to minimize the diffusion layer that develops and keeps the reaction going at a reasonable rate so we need to keep the oxum working electrod separate we need to have a good stable reference electrod because this reaction may be occurring for days although that's unusual but at least an hour sometimes or more so we don't want the reference elector potentially to be drifting around while we're doing an experiment so that if we could drift into a potential where we don't want it to be we also need to have good effective stirring now this is a fairly small and probably actually a very inefficient bulk electrolysis cell but a simple one to make um the also the problem with the potential stat is that we need to be able to supply high currents and um and we also in order to supply high current sometimes we need to supply high voltages to do that reaction so potential stats for bul electrolysis often have 100 watt or even 200 watt capabilities they can supply large amounts of voltage and current to to do it which means they're actually quite lethal if you're not careful about using these experiments properly the other important different type of experiment is So-Cal controlled current methods as we talked about the idea here is rather than controlling trying to control the potential let's just go ahead and put a current through the system at a controlled rate and it's not as accurate as you know the problem with the control current method is you have to be very careful about making the current just right so that you're only electrolizing what you want and you're not ship um shifting over with your current and electrolyzing something that you don't want want to see for example you only want to have enough current to do this reaction not so much current that you're doing this reaction but for big industrial processes it's often a very efficient way to do this because for example it's very difficult to make a potenti set works that may be required to supply say a th000 or 10,000 amps that you might be using in a Cell for an aluminum electrolysis process or some other process so you want to use a constant current mode is easier to supply these sorts of high currents not easy but easier and as I said you have to make sure that you're not shifting the current you you have to have the right amount of current so you're not shifting into making side reactions or uh also when the reaction is complete it's difficult to know exactly from the constant current mode but as I said in a industrial setting that's often easier to do than setting up a high current potential stat much cheaper generally okay all right well let's um how much time we got left on that tape Rob 16 minutes why don't we stop here and uh we'll take a very short break and we'll continue and talk about the uh test after this

Man V Golf - Quinta Da Marinha, Portugal.
like the sun is about to rise on a classic Man versus golf hole challenge the question is what are the holes that I am faced with and where are we so we kick things off on the 10th hole Atkin to the marina it is in fact eight par five and I'm gonna need a drive in and around 250 yards to get me in position a off the T and avoid that water and then next up I'm gonna be looking at something like 170 or 190 into very much a layup area which should leave a short wedge into a green that is well protected to say the least sitting in front of the resort hotel next up is hole 12 on the scorecard and this one is a dog leg right to left and again gonna need a decent drive to find the top of that brow or the hill which kicks down a little and feeds to leave in hopefully a shorter iron on this dog leg right to left some incredible views a kidney shaped green and a Severe hump in the middle of it all and it's important to try and land on the right tier on this one and finally it is hole 13 which is another Par Four and albeit a relatively short hole it needs to get positioned off the T with a left to right tee shot to leave what should be a very short iron in hand however this green may be wide but it is extremely narrow and takes a great deal of effort to get this thing to stop and land on what is a front to back slope in green and those holes are from kinder the marina in Cascade Portugal and I am here thanks to the team at glencore golf holidays and want other big reveal in this video is what driver I'm going to be using in the season ahead well it is in fact obviously the stealth 2 it's the HD model and after a number of tests this is what I've plumbed for but can it do what I want it to and first of all it's find the Fairway on hole number 10. now you've already seen the Drone footage of hole number 10 so you can see what we're faced with and quite possibly one of the signature holes here Atkins of the marina we're going to break this one down and the first thing I need to do is stay left of the water on this tee shot but we also don't want to go too far left and leave a long second into this par five that's measuring 475 meters from this T position foreign with a little bit of cut is what I'm hoping to do and that's a great start and again that confidence in the driver decision was justified thing that's position a a great star to the challenge okay so direct line to the flag is pretty much tight to this building on the left which well I'll tell you whether we can go for it or not it's 227 so the answer is no we can't it's outside of my range so I'm going to zap a tree in the distance very much like a palm tree that's 191 to there and then it should leave me with a short wedge in hand or at least that's the plan right so between red steak and palm tree is the line I'm going to play a five hybrid see if I can let the club do the work and get me in a good position well that's as good as I've got in terms of two pure strikes driver off the tee and that is pretty much bang Central as well I'm hoping I've just got a short wedge into what is a tiny green now I am in position a but I also will say a bit of a caveat to that that we've not got a lot of green to work with I've got a tad bit of Breeze in and I've got 90 into the flag and I'm going to go with a 56 wedge and to be honest with you that's a full wedge if you like and so a tad dangerous but this hole is really clever in that you've got a short wedge in hand but a fairly small Target with not a great deal of room at the back of this green either I just hope I have made the wrong decision in terms of too much loft that's a really good again is the yard right no see oh my word that was so good in the air and I think it needs a yard more and that'll trickle down to the flag which you'll see very shortly as it happens I've pitched into the top of the bank it's rolled down a tad the good news is it's hanging on for now at least well I don't know whether you can pick it up on camera you'll want to see the amount of balls that are collected in here they must get thousands per year and if you'll see where mine is I nearly added to that count I can't believe it's just held on the bank you can see just which was would uh would have not been too bad anyway I've got the same wedge which is a 56. and we're just gonna try and pop this one up and get it running at the flag just come on go in go in go in it's got it it's got my word that was uh to be honest here I didn't want to speak too soon because it looked from the get-go that was right online there wasn't a lot of movement in in the in the role it seemed anyway but to get that one hold out with the first hole of the challenge is fantastic so that's a birdie but maybe more importantly a win right next hole up is number 12 in the challenge and it's 393 meters it's stroke index two and it's called Lefty and I think that'll be largely due to the fact as you've seen from the Drone it's a bit of a right to left in terms of a dog legging quite severe I think it's really narrow up top so what we want to try and do it will be going driver off the T but it's all about getting position on the angle of that dog legged if we manage to get one down there just over the brow there's a bit of a kick down and then we should leave a short wedge in hand we've got to get that driver away first well it's the same deal really I want to go left with a bit of cut I just don't want to get too greedy in terms of trying to get close to the angle of the dog leg yeah do you know what that's a good bit of control again you can see it coming back to Center I just need to get going and again I think we've just reached the brow because that's disappeared see how much of a kick down we get and hopefully we've got a good line in I know there's nothing going to be in our way or maybe just a little bit further away than I hope to be that's interesting I knew I haven't quite got the drive I've played this hole twice in the last couple of days and managed to get it scooting down the hill and we've sort of stayed on it a little bit it's a huge difference in terms of what I've got left in I've got 195 into this flag um and this green is long and narrow there's a bit of a rise in the middle of it it's a really ideally you want to be on that back end otherwise you've got a difficult two puts you yeah we've left ourselves with a little bit more work than I've had in the previous two days they can certainly understand today why this is stroke index two so right what we're going with 195 okay we're gonna go strategic selection here because I've got that five hybrid in hand and I reckon they can only make the front's edge but I'm prepared to sort of take that from here and see if we can make the two and not forgetting the rules of the game I'm literally on a shot this is stroke two so a five would be a half right let's just get this bit right go on on go on I have got it on the lower tier so there is that well you'll see very shortly an issue with the put over the rise but I can't tell you how happy I was with the strike and so far two drives two five hybrids have been top drawer now although I am really pleased in terms of getting onto the screen you can see what I mean about the length of it and it's still got a long way to go that rise is just well on the top of there and I think it's going to swing from the left to right and what I'm basically trying to say is there's a lot of work still in this to try and get down in two because it needs to be almost dead weight to the top of the brow and then that let it release down to the hole they'll overdo it but at the same time make sure you get to the ridge [Music] that's too quick it's too quick oh my word that's even off camera the one I had placed behind the green and seriously they're pacing these things is super quick and the fear of not wanting to leave it short just meant an extra ever stab there and uh yeah we've got quite a bit still to do well I suppose in many ways it's gone according to plan I did say we're probably looking at playing for a five almost there from where I'd left myself in the second shot but I am disappointed in terms of how far I've come past the hole so with the shot stroke index two this one is for the win oh my word I looked in all of the way until the last sort of six inches or so when it started to turn away but I did leave myself a little bit too much to expect to hold that out for a par but either way I've got a half I'm still one up but don't forget it all goes down to the wire in Man vs golf so I spent four nights in room 244 at cancer de Marina Golf Resort the hotel was Modern clean comfortable and I had a great pool view the hotel itself was perfect and it was a great location which meant we spent most of our evenings in nearby Qashqai it was a 5 Euro Uber and a 10 minute drive into this Seaside town where we enjoyed many of the nice places to eat and drink and as with any good restaurants near the sea there was plenty of good seafood on offer I love the charm of the back streets of Qashqai where we found what was our favorite stop-off at Senor Manuel's [Music] but in amongst these streets there was an abundance of places to eat and to be fair they all looked really nice and the atmosphere in these streets was superb each morning we would get a short two minute shuttle to the clubhouse where we checked into the Pro Shop organized our Boogie pick the boss score cards and there was always a warm welcome and then later we would return to that same Clubhouse for a spot of lunch and unfortunately to do a little bit of work afternoons were then spent by the pool which would be overlooking the 10th green and then inside for a spa and sauna so if you like what you see in today's video then make sure you click on the link in the video description below or head on over to glencoregolf.com for more booking information write enough of all of that I think it's time to return to the golf course and see who comes out victorious in this man versus golf hole challenge right the final hole of The Challenge from kinder the marina is hole 13. it's called Atlantic Ocean and as you can see I'm pretty sure we all know where the name came from that view is pretty spectacular but it will be all the better with a ball in the middle of the Fairway and that's the first job really debating at 323 meters do we need driver it looks as though it plays very much downhill and we should get a bit of a kick on but I've been confident with this driver so far so I'm going to hit a sort of a soft one and just see if we can get one chasing down and not leave too much in to what I know is a very difficult green to get on and actually hold and let's not forget I might be one up but the final hole counts as triple points so there's every chance the course can certainly still bite back right let's get this tee shot out the way again a little soft form from left to right foreign now it should kick and kick we'll go down there and see just how far or how close we are rather to the green played the shot the way intended fairly tight like I said off this tee and it's all about getting position and hopefully I've got a short enough iron in hand right so we've got a position off the T but I have played this hole once in the last couple of days um just a point to mention this kicks and cameras quite a bit from left to right and we're not a million miles off being down in the Ravine but as it stands I've got 114 playing out the first cut but again the camber is very much off the left-hand side I played this the first day and I threw a wedge in which looked really good and ended up going off the back side so I'm going to play a different shot today I'm going to play one that lands short short left and hopefully kicks in we'll see so for me the location is almost at the edge of the green is what I'm trying to Edge left I mean and um I'm hitting a 56 wedge and hopefully the camber does the rest Oh Come on B right now we're just reliant on the bounce because I couldn't have played that any better go on get down there get down there ah well just I mean I'm I'm happy let's put it that way um because I played the shot really good it was just perhaps a little bit too much in terms I need to carry just a little bit further because that was coming right on the pin would just look to be on The Fringe so uh yeah I'll take that to be fair oh I'm really sort of uh half pleased half disappointed because it meets this green and seriously it just runs away to the hole a yard or so more and I think we'd have been pretty close but that's IFS what's the maybes I suppose um the fact is we just gotta carry this little bit of Fringe I'm going with Potter and trickle one down there and hopefully I'd like to walk off with a par thank you all right come on come on oh my word well at one point I thought I'd hold it for birdie I did a bit of a Kevin Gnar straight after that one and now looking at it and I've gone sort of six eight four past wow of course Mez wouldn't let me down when required and I'm quite pleased we did make a four to be honest with it because the first and second shots and maybe even third certainly didn't deserve a bogey so that is a win for the average golfer it's Kinder the marina in Kaskade Portugal we've had a fantastic few days I've got a saying hopefully what you've seen is a small snippet of the course today we'll make sure you get tuned into what's published over the next few weeks because we've filmed a whole lot of content from here and I must thank the team at glencore golf holidays who made this whole thing possible right that's me done with a win in a man vs golf hole challenge out in the sun in Portugal I'll see you all tomorrow night

Changelings #12 - Zane and Less is More!
[Music] hey guys fill about a cola here welcome back to distant signal in another video this is the twelfth entry in the changelings vlog marathon diary whatchamacallit I wanted to thank you guys for sticking around those of you who are watching I know that the I know just wanted to give a quick update today I spoke with Zane the special effects artist who was supposed to read the script and he did he loved it so he's on board very excited I'm excited we're gonna meet hopefully next week to discuss materials and how to pull off the complex transformation that I'm hoping to capture on a very very tight budget so I'm excited to hear his thoughts and I'm definitely curious what he thinks is a good strategy to go about capturing this but I think that what's gonna help with the makeup and with the special effects that we need to achieve is gonna be lighting I think lighting is gonna play a really large part in augmenting and hiding the things that we don't really want to highlight I mean if we're gonna be on low-budget I've gotta figure I really have to figure out a way of showing the monster in a way that's scary that reveals enough detail to really creep you out and discuss to you and make you afraid but also I want to hide all the bad parts I think a lot of times people go really overboard with the effect wanting to show too much of it and that tends to kill the effect I you know effects as real as they are really feel just often feel really fake you when you see the full effect when you see the full effect you see something like a full when you see things like fully animated characters that go through the entire film saying a lot Jar Jar Binks or you know pick another one that you can you know it's it's too much it'll I always see the flaws and those kinds of things because it's always it's always showing itself off and when you show when effects are done just to show themselves off you're just scrutinizing the effects and you find all the flaws are revealed and you just all the flaws these I do you could take the opposite approach with effects and use them really sparingly or in extremely punctuated moments so that they really are just in service of the story when that happens you're focusing less on the effect it matters less it's more you you know I think that I'm more forgiving of it even if it's a bad effect it's like the moment was chosen correctly you know when when to use the power of special effects tonight I appreciate that and it's something about low budgets but I think that that kind of goes without saying but that same principle can be applied to bigger movies sometimes the more you show doesn't always mean better and in this case specifically with these special effects I think that that's going to be the sort of rule of thumb is that you know the the less we revealed the better sort of you know it's gonna be you know it's it's not it's gonna be the inverse of mores more I think in this case it'll be less is more I think that's a and necessary function of the budget because we really can't go overboard with it and be by being very selective and hiding the flaws and lighting and being very creative with how we show the monster that could really be in service to the narrative because you really can't rely on those effects as your crotch they're not gonna be the thing that saves the movie so in the end it's gonna be a good thing that we have this creative restraint and I'm looking forward to the challenge so anyways that's it for tonight good luck out there have a good weekend and I will see you tomorrow thanks for watching if you like what I do here hit that subscribe button find me on Steam and support me on bit backer for only $2.00 a month worth of Bitcoin or Bitcoin cash you'll get exclusive content early access to everything I do and access to my private telegram channel where you can ask me any question you like about the process of making changelings with cryptocurrency alright see you there

about the needs that they have to preserve the church building um and i you know told them about the cpa opportunity uh thinking this would be a very good project it's a really important landmark the building in north amherst and so i encouraged uh pastor song and sikh young to come to the historical commission meeting at this meeting the one in august uh to have a just a preliminary discussion with the historical commission um in advance of the application which is due on september 30th and so i hope you know today is just an opportunity to learn more about the project to ask questions and to really help make this application as strong as it can be so great so could we hear what you're planning to request from cpa okay uh thank you for having us um behalf of our zion put your church in

present the images of a church's exterior structure as i have mentioned and we you will see with your naked eyes and i believe a picture is worth a thousand word and before we start with the image just briefly share a story barbara jenkins who had diligently tried to maintain this church for a long time and despite of her effort the congregation was down to only a handful after 184 years one of the pirates of the amherst community the north congregational church changed the hands with the diverse but ever-growing korean churches removing we moved on july 29 2012. just spilling over 10 years ago we took a residency here and one of the article posted on 2010 miss jenkins we would love to see continue to be a community center and our church wants to become a community center as well and a couple of days ago i learned intriguing information about the first pastor of the north congregational church his name was reverend william hunt and he was an anti-slavery advocate men only white people was attending at the church service at that time and eventually people of color could attend the service set on the balcony the change happened in his iconic church we are presenting to you right now in here today in that same spirit move our congregation we want to apply changes with the three we know first after 35 years of a serve as a pastor lee has retired then pastor song on february 6 of this year became a lead pastor with a new leadership secondly our church is a korean immigrant family center in church and it's it is necessary to expand to the multi attack church by sharing praying services every tuesday through friday 10 am and prayer meeting we welcome those who want to join the prayer this is a new vision and thirdly uh the store church of the restoration making the 200 years in 2026 and we have the responsibility and honor to preserve the cross can stand high to represent god's love for all the people please help us with the becoming a community center church center and college center connecting with the region growing together we and serving the younger generation of course we lack resource and wisdom however you have the power to make a decision in our favor to give grants and what she contributes to all the funds for the people of this community next we want to show you the images and after that view the pictures you will see that it has been some uh progress updated in our church interior breakdown basement which we created a sunday school classroom and the parish hall you will see in an image pastor's son painted it and fixed the wall so last penny last 10 years having stayed here as a church resident in this community we tried as much as we can with the fund is available through our uh financial offering uh of course one of the things that we like to use like i say we like to open our church to community center and center of the church and college center and then parish hall is right now i i'm sure you are all aware of this is north district voting station so we've been having town north summers people come here to set up and using as every every year twice a year using for a boarding station so without further ado after i finish showing the images i would like to make gage and jenna keller to be part of our team as a share of this presentation so without further ado we're going to show you uh images we have prepared and like i said earlier a picture is worth the 8 000 word and obviously you will be seeing why we could we need to apply this grant and thank you and wish us luck thank you so uh ben can i share the screen uh yes my yes just screen share and then walk us through it can you um you should be able to press the share screen button at the bottom it's a green arrow yep okay oops i have to reopen this oops i think we lost him he said he had to reopen the screen yep somehow he has to sign back in again yeah so young you understand that we're not the ones granting the money we're just advising your application right okay okay great oh sorry i see kyung you're actually on mute sorry i can't hear you this is the basement that we i have talked about we upgraded but uh as that slide go process go forward i will mention to you how we come affects this basement to sunday school classrooms wow okay so now we're getting into the things you need to have done roof and gutter bell tower exterior remove storm window you mean windows all of them yes because they are all or i don't know when was it last time then those congregational church fixed the window did anything but it's really condition is bad need to replace all of them so you would replace the windows with double pane and you wouldn't need storm windows then yes yes okay um the entrance stone oh the stairs yeah okay is there just one or is it a multiple staircase yeah it's some yeah it's large uh a few large slabs first and your gutters are in bad shape okay wow it's in bad shape is it leaking inside yes some water came into the our sanctuary uh worship area and we fix the just put another paint on it but without fixing a basic problem uh it's going to be repeat every time it rains yeah you'll get mold yes okay the bell tower that's part of the painting project okay is that is the finial on top secure that we're not sure because nobody can climb up there as so we're speaking now then we're gonna get uh we still have to get a couple more estimates uh we had a one uh general contractor looked at it and we just couldn't gather his estimate yet because of his busy schedule which is understandable but oh right there that's where all the rain went into the basement so basically i've noticed that driving by those are really well yeah basically so it was a mold and all the walls to the south of our building was all moldy and we have to do the kind of major job uh renovating and it's not renovated yet but not the standard of i don't think that we could have inspection done but we did a new put a new shield rock and paint and using as our sunday school classroom so you're also you can't just paint there you're gonna have to put different covers over the window wells so that it doesn't eat anymore because we found out where the rain was going down inside the uh the paved area so we put a kind of roof over it above the window kind of stopped but this damage been done there already so yeah they have better solutions for them yeah this is our entrance of a stone where it's making a gaps so it's kind of shaky so you have to need to fix that entrance stairs and see the window cells where handled you know replace yes and need a cutter and repair needle repair to move so you have slate um i assume those you're just going to replace repair and replace not change the roof here all right we need a repairing a lot of areas on the roof so i don't know just repairing one spa will you know do the job or have to do the whole roof well you wouldn't be able to get the st you and bill afford the same materials you should talk to an expert on this type of rover this is very different from a standard roof today and those last yes what what has it been 80 to 125 years but they're probably yeah right yeah so yeah that's a whole nother project that's the problem area as well uh because have a drainage problem in the middle it's kind of paved really down a little deeper than you see in the naked eyes so has a drain problem in the whole parking lot area is kind of costing a problematic see that there's our parking lot right there i imagine that drain is plugged if it hasn't been cleaned out lately too yes yes luck ben this isn't the town's responsibility um that's why we we were wondering oh i probably it is the towns i just want to make sure it's if it's i if it's on their land we probably have an easement over it anyway but um yeah actually the pine street side the sidewalk is new but right now is it does the prison side only disrupt the oil yeah yeah no it's a it's town property okay so that's one thing they have to worry about is this the actual tilt or is this the photographer no it is the kind of tilt oh okay you may have to reset does it does it really tilt like that right actually well i cannot give you a different answer it's not because how pastor song took a picture without is the closest he could get and take a picture and maybe even naked eyes and you look like a little bit tilted i don't think it's that tilted though i've said it that signal many times and i would never i mean this looks like it's about ready to topple over i don't think so i agree it's not not like that no i mean you could see in this photo that it's it's square on the building okay um that's all the pictures we have prepared for you meg did you have anything to add before we ask for the commission's comments sure um i'm uh delighted to be extremely supportive of this project um just drop something oh well i have grandkids running around in the background but oh well um we were only recently uh brought into the process with massive huge thanks to ben for alerting us the district one neighborhood association had independently been thinking about suggesting that the church apply for cpa funding and we were delighted that they are already ahead of that um and so i think our support will get stronger as we go along and we're just stepping into this um the i want to point out a few historical things since this is a historical commission the building itself has been approved by the mass historical commission as has been recognized by the massachusetts the state of massachusetts historical i don't have the right the exact branch but um and nationally the neighborhood of that village center has been recognized as a historic district we're extremely uh interested in maintaining that we care a lot about our history and we really think the church is one of the most amazing uh local historic buildings i'll add a little bit to what cheek young said the building was funded and built in 1826 was funded by a guy named oliver dickinson who demanded that none of the pews would be available to black to african americans and i'm really curious to find out who that oliver dickinson was but as i said when we get more involved however the first pastor of the church william hunt as chi gong said was the founder of the amherst anti-slavery society and so the north amherst church became a center of anti-slavery activity early in the 19th century and blacks were african-americans were allowed although they had to sit in the balcony and then for some reason older children like teenagers had to sit up there too i don't have to learn more about what that was about we're extremely happy that the church is interested in reaching out to the community and appreciate that and we would like to help them think that through how that will happen but the the main interest that we have and i particularly have is in the extremely important historical significance of this building um it was people before this church was built people had to ride in their buggies three miles to get to church and then so it was very important in 1826 which is really early that they built this church so i hope uh that will down the proposal has a ways to go to figure out the costs and exactly what some of these tips uh entail uh but the proposal the final proposal isn't due till the end of september so we have plenty of time to figure it out and engage more people and build more interest in protecting this extremely important historical building in amherst janet keller is not able to join us tonight but i'm doubling for her too sure we're really in we're really really into this [Laughter] great they have your support um let me just mention one thing before i open it up to the rest of the commission and that is because it is a historic building you can't just change materials and looks you have to keep it in its original form when you redo things so for instance that slave roof the windows you can't just put in modern windows that look different it's going to add to the cost but it's it's really required by the fact that it's such an old building so you'll have to talk to contractors in those terms right in terms of restoration as much as remodeling or whatever and it may be that this grant has to be a multi-year grant where you propose something major you know this year and then next year and the next year because this is way more than any cpa grant can handle in a single year okay so i think meg you might help them think through how to break into pieces so and that's been done before in fact right there the community forum just down the street from the church did that they came back to us over what three years at least for different parts of the house and things that they were doing and so it's it is possible for cpa to to continue on like that but they're not gonna they're not gonna fund the whole thing anyway and they wouldn't be able to take such a huge project all at once okay any um commissioners um becky your hands up robin you're next i i'm glad you pointed out that it is a lot of work to do do you have at the end of september isn't that far away i guess is my concern so it would seem to me you might want to get some folks some contractors in and look at what is the worst damage that you need to fix now and can you actually get some estimates um before the deadline and then i think the other question is um have you made any plans for fundraising to yes as i have spoken with the band and may gage uh give us some ideas so of course our congregation have been involved with this process uh first and foremost uh we will be involved with the offering then we do the uh bazaar like a food bazaar any tech sale i mean you know everything every penny will help so we're going to do our power to do the fundraising much as we can and trying to get work done as a needed basis and i'm glad that found out about we could repeat the um applying for grant every year that's good to know i thought it was a one time and that yet but that's really hopeful and we i'm glad for uh getting that new information great robin there i am um hi it was it's a pleasure to have you here and what uh what an amazing building for for preservation purposes we have before us um i wanted to uh reiterate what makes that the house uh the house the um church so and and ben can correct me if i get this wrong but the church's um inventoried with the mass historic commission that means there's an inventory form with a little bit of the history it's um it's a little outdated it could use some update and the forum itself could do some updating but it is part of this national registered district so it's what we would call a contributing property to a national register district which means that it's also on the national register which in turn puts it on the state register just for clarification purposes there's no there's no uh the massachusetts inventory form that's in their system is not um an honorary uh significance the um the massachusetts level we don't have landmarks um they're all put on the state register through either being on the national register or local historic district but it is on both registers so that that makes it a really um a really strong a candidate for these funds um i will be this cons the representative to the cpa uh committee who would be if the historical commission decides to recommend the grant proposal but i would be there to argue in favor of that things that make for a strong proposal are more than one estimate um and then particularly with the building like this um using consultants who are specialized like i think we decided that was a slight roof so getting the appropriate specialized contractors and again adhering to the secretary of the interior standards those are specific rules that determine how all repairs can and can't be done and um the town of amherst doesn't have anybody in a role to look over a contractor's scope of work and determine whether those standards are being enforced or not but maybe that's something that will change but it is it would be an expectation that the work would be reviewed to make sure it was in line with those standards there are a couple of other funds that you could also consider applying to in addition to cpa funds the best preservation preservation mass and the 7 1772 foundation have a matching program for windows and exterior so that could be another potentially another ten thousand dollars and um the sacred places organization i know they're they're a national organization and and their grants are more competitive but it might be worth um taking a look at what they have to offer so that more anywhere you can get more funds and especially if they look for matching funds the cpa funds could be used to match and and bring more funds into your project and then i highly agree with with a phased um getting a phased scope of work i would assume that the leaking roof would probably be the first item to be to be tackled but um maybe doing a roof application and a windows application and then maybe an exterior repair application if there's nothing um if there's nothing structurally urgent so um very excited to see this project come before us thank you for thank you for presenting that well thank you for having us we appreciate this opportunity pat yes thank you for presenting this to us and i my thoughts when i raised my hand have been touched on in that it would be really important for you to prioritize the repair that's most critical and and apply for that first and have the stages um for for the rest of the repairs they all look critical but but there's got to there's got to be a degree of critical and to present your case in that way that you know whether it's the roof whether it's the rotting windows um to you talking to contractors and advisors to to make that decision and then in the first year apply for the repair that would be considered the most critical to the structure of the building thank you yeah definitely preview the cpa committee that you will be applying in stages so they already know that this is only a portion you know of what's coming and they can see over you can show them all the problems that say that you're prioritizing this year this problem and they know that there's much more and that way they don't feel like they're being asked to pay for everything they can see it's the small option of what you have to deal with okay any other comments for them i really underline what robin said definitely look at those other grant opportunities once you know i've found in my own self as a as an academic once you've written the grant proposal you have it all there you have the text you have your estimates you have your budget and it's easy to plug it into other grants so this is the year to just go all out and find everyone you can and do it rather than waiting and then having to redo everything in another year and i can um forward an email after this meeting um with links to the resources that i'm aware of thank you sure and i'm sure meg and other people can help you with this yes right we are counting on we'd like to help we just needed a little we needed a little more advanced time this time but now we have it so that's good yes yeah okay well i think that you have a sense from us oh hedy you just put your hand up just um just to comment about um my my experience of the the church is really through the restaurant um and and witnessing the community efforts that you have already been involved in to to kind of make it a real meeting point um in the in the area of north america um i think it's a wonderful thing and a great reuse of a historic building to have you all there i'm really happy that you're pursuing a cpa grant um good luck um prioritize what's most critical you know plan for a multi-year project there's a lot here that would intimidate a lot of people but the fact that you want to build here and grow your community and want to stay where you are is going to be really um the bedrock with which you then take it to the next levels so thank you thank you thank you well i think you could tell from all the members that we're definitely in support of the project and we will do whatever we can to support it at the cpa meeting now we have a lot of things that come in and we of course have to prioritize ourselves but but robin will be our representative and after we've gone over all the proposals and looked at the amount of money that is available each year it's different for historical things because it's divided into pools then we would go to them with our priority list and our amounts that we would ask them so um this this helps and of course once you've actually made your proposal we'll be looking at it and you'll probably come back to talk to us again but this is just to help you get it yeah get it but you definitely have support from the community good good thank you thank you for coming and and previewing it for us good luck thank you everybody thank you thank thank you ben thank you awesome all right all right thank you ben thank you okay so second item on the agenda is west cemetery signage we've talked about this many times before what are we at today um well this this one's a little bit different because it's uh we have funding for it from last year's cpa project or last year's cpa proposal uh if you remember we got 50 000 for the fence and the signage at west cemetery we uh have a uh contractor lined up to do the fence um probably if oh there yeah probably maybe this fall but potentially in the spring um but i uh that was kind of the priority to see you know what how how much the fence would cost and then see what's left to do uh for signage um and so the goal with the signage is to um we want to place two signs one on north pleasant street near the toy box to try to get people you know to let people know to that they can go down that alleyway and access west cemetery through there for pedestrians and then also to put a sign on triangle street uh to mostly maybe for more so that's car focused uh to let people know about west cemetery there because i think in both places it's it's pretty easy just to drive by it and not not really know or walk by and not really know um so yeah i guess i just i'm totally open to different ideas i think we'll probably work with uh seth gregory again to uh put together a sign with a package yeah um and so my initial thoughts here i'm just gonna quickly share my screen um so you know west cemetery you can walk through there and that's one of the main gates um one thought i had was to just you know adhere a sign to this light pole our our dpw is pretty insistent that wherever we can we don't uh we we reuse existing poles as much as possible and don't put too many additional poles in the ground so i was i thought you know it'd be good to put a sign in this area and considering there's already a light pull there probably uh makes sense to put it on that pole so um maybe have it um say west cemetery but then have an arrow to the right for pedestrians and arrows straight ahead for cars right yeah exactly yeah so they don't try to pull in the one way i know it would be confusing yeah if you had west cemetery to the right here and then cars and then there's also do not enter so yeah somehow make it clear that it's you know for it's a pedestrian um access um and so i think the sign would probably be you know maybe similar maybe like two two by three kind of thing like you know 24 by 36 kind of sign and whereas the if you remember from last year we had we put two like more interpretive signs within the cemetery right and those had a lot of text and maps and a list of all the donors and all that i think this one this one would be simple and just say west cemetery like establish 1730 with an arrow uh maybe maybe say national register or something like that um and then so i might also say emily dickinson yeah okay you know if that's what they're looking for right um and then so going to triangle street now um this one is a little bit more challenging because there's uh you know like there's electric poles to consider um and so one idea i had and i was also talking to alan snow who's her tree warden and uh he runs the grounds division he's the one who you know him and his team are the ones mowing out here all the time you know his he had a few ideas but one thing he said to me was just you know that if we could avoid putting another pole in the ground here that would be great because they're running their mowers up and down here all the time uh it might be hard to avoid that but you can't use the electrical pole right because it doesn't belong to the town yeah exactly um so one idea that alan and i had when we were walking out there was to put kind of like a low sign like within this bed um that just said west cemetery and you know i don't think it even needs to it could be more so more like stone potentially as opposed to just like a metal sign that sticks out of the ground um the one we're doing at the corner for amherst college right yeah and pleasant yeah yes yes something like that um i think that would look nice potentially in this bed here of course it might not be visible for people coming this way necessarily but um maybe not have it on the corner have it along the outside of the wall right like here yeah see it both directions are people allowed to turn in there with their cars yep yeah so that's where people park when they go there yeah i mean people drive in um it's we obviously you know there's usually only ever like you know there's very few cars in there ever but you know i think it's important to well one for maintenance and two for if someone's you know mobility impaired but still wants to visit the cemetery to be able to drive in um but theoretically a visitor to town could just pull in there drive all the way around and back out again right yeah yeah it's kind of like a figure eight uh road system so yeah you can easily loop loop through okay so ben what is that sign that i'm seeing to the left there yeah you just flip past it back the other way this one no no behind the fence yeah there's a green and right sign oh right yeah this yeah this is probably like 10 years old or something um would that be updated i actually i don't think it's there i don't think it's there anymore oh um funded in part by the landscape grant program yeah i think this is when they did the headstone restoration the first time around maybe yeah not since we've been doing it yeah it's not the right names i think that's gone i haven't seen it yeah yeah but could that be a place for a new sign designating the west cemetery well i wouldn't give you time to turn in if you were coming from right outside you wouldn't see it from the other direction you'd only see it from this direction yeah yeah yeah i mean i can explore a few different options uh either putting like a sign in here or maybe something on the corner here that's visible from both directions um and see see just well one what i don't i don't really have a sense of what like a you know stone sign here would cost but probably more definitely more expensive than a simple metal sign on a pole but um what would be more a more visible from both directions is take this little hedge out here right right there on the wall just to touch it from both directions right it's not like that hedge is terribly valuable like the other side was um the wall closer to the driveway like yeah like there's a wall like up here or yeah yeah yeah you can't see that coming from the west though because okay yeah yeah so that's why we have to be on the low wall that sticks out on the other side of the driveway yeah you can see it from both directions or if you wanted something higher put it where the hedge is yeah yeah i mean and it's not the end of the world if it's only visible from one direction i mean but the other thing might be to take the there is a sign that says west cemetery right on that that stone post yeah maybe just make that like etch that with black in the yeah um letters so that it shows because this isn't as essential as the other one from the other side the walking access you know on the alley here it's more obvious you can see a cemetery you can't yeah yeah maybe if that were just a better preserved sign on there you wouldn't have to add anything yeah yeah that's a good point i mean that can be fun you know it can be darkened with a growth it's pretty easy to miss that yeah yeah yeah okay um yeah i'll bring back those options and and see what others think but yeah that's a good suggestion okay well bring us the proposal propose signs and what you want to do and then we'll look at them maybe next year okay great uh cpa proposals from us next on the agenda anyone have anything to suggest robin for cpp uh sure anybody else can come up with ideas too but i know she's just jumping at the bed here so well i'm just i still haven't got like a framework around this but here's what i'm thinking thus far so um i looked at springfield and actually i should have um [Applause] i should send out this link to the commission but i looked at the springfield historic preservation fund that is funded by their cpa that is for repairs the way that all i know is that they use they use cpa funds to fund a particular program so their guidelines are up to 30 000 there's a very impressively complicated formula so that you part the part that's your award is related to your income and it's limited in their case it's limited to properties within local historic districts um i think the most important thing to note is that they've done this that it can be done that you can take cpa funds and create a particular program for them and the other thing that i noted in their program is that they the city engages a preservation consultant to review the scope of work and ensure the secretary of interior standards are adhered to is that part of the same funding is that one of the like initial expenses in the funding or is it separate um i think that's separate i think the 30 000 up to 30 000 is for the repairs itself and that the town i'm not sure i'm not sure i haven't had a chance to inquire with them but how they fund things on the other side i mean it's just it's really it's interesting and impressive and it it lets us know that both you can't create a program that uses cpa funds and this piece about i'm really curious to get in touch with them to understand which particular which and how they engage a preservation consultant because it seems like this is something as we begin to really encourage our applications to cpa in general it would be great to talk to them about how they manage that because it's kind of necessary for all our projects and as we as we get going along that that seems like something that should be standard so then the question is if we were to create a program uh for let's say for barnes and outbuildings and just put a proposal before the cpa this year to say uh i don't know request 25 000 for stabilization funds for barnes and outbuildings i mean we'd have to develop guidelines for the program but that would be kind of the general idea that we'd take twenty five thousand dollars it would be in a fund for um barns and outbuildings you know it could be for stabilization only or actual work or for the investigating into what has to be done because you had originals yeah i mean i don't know i you know isn't going to do even one barn that's right okay yeah but it's so 20 so so i don't know what the dollar amount would be to ask for from cpa to get enough seed money to get started and whether it would just be i don't think that if we took cpa money from that main budget not the administrative budget which is a limited amount anyway but from the main budget if we could fund feasibility studies that's right find out like what it would cost to do say five feasibility studies right right maybe one stabilization or something and i would double what you're asking for at least fifty thousand and see what we're asking for that's right right in the proposal that we put forward and that actually since it'll be conflict of interest for you i probably will have to present right all the way through but you know that's kind of a general idea if it's seed money and we we say that we're starting like a friends of amherst barnes or something you know we talked about you know that would continue fundraising and stuff and that we're looking elsewhere it would look better to cpa than to say we're only coming back to you every year to build our pot right well i mean there there are so many pieces flying you know so many ideas in the air at once and i'm trying to pick one thing that you know we could start i don't you know to ha i don't have a crew for a friends of i mean i would personally like to call it friends of amherst preservation so it could be a broad swath but that's just that's sort of like another commission goal that might be something but it doesn't exist yet it's just an idea the application said we're asking for this money but the idea behind it is that we branch out when we have a chance from here and start pulling people into this kind you know we don't have to actually say we have it all in place to say that this this is the kind of thing that's going to seed not just feasibility or stabilization but it's going to cede our idea to create a friends group you know what i mean um i mean i know what you're saying i don't you know i don't know that i would pitch it that way but i mean the the main pitch is the money right so we need a dollar amount we need what it's for and yeah you know we could even say that it would be you know limited to barnes and outbuildings on the inventory that shannon walsh of pvpc prepared for us right and there you've got something and you can change it later but there you've got like some nice defined parameters yeah i mean there's there is precedent for the historical commission just getting due diligence funds for you know like soft costs related to uh you know architectural engineering and studies related you know that to use mostly in relation to demo delay projects but i think right doesn't that come out of like the administrative line item and not the standard cpa or project it comes out of the historic preservation [Music] um section yeah okay i think there's been i think maybe more recently there's been some questions raised whether i think yeah like there's questions raised whether the stronghouse could get money for engineering study last year and they ended up right they did they did get that but right um i think if we put parameters on it that like you said it would only be used for you know buildings on the inventory deemed you know historic by the commission and um i think if it's yeah it's one if it's for soft cost i think that's simpler but as soon as you it's anything construction related that gets more complicated well that's true i mean if we made a soft project program that we could you know dangle in front of you know either through like well i wouldn't say either it would say both through a mailing for that list since those are eligible properties yeah and then um to anybody who comes you know before us for the demolition request and then you advise them about putting in their own cpa application for them right exactly we could say you know we don't want you to tear down this property um here's money to fund you know and here's you know a list of resources for people to contact to fund a feasibility study about you know stabilizing and preserving it and they could apply for those funds it could be granted those funds and then you're right then that would the next logical step you're right would just be to have encourage them to come back for a regular cpa grant with that feasibility study in hand you'll have costs and you'll have an idea of a scope of work and it would be much you know easier to go forward from there great okay let's do it okay comments for robin oh i'm i'm very supportive of the idea great so thank you once you help her with it we all call her up we'll definitely look at you know whatever you draft out and help i mean okay sit down with you whatever whoever so and you can just describe you can just describe how the you know the commission over the years has faced these uh been faced with the demolition of these barns that are just beyond repair and the owners or in some cases aren't and the owners don't want to yeah right either way right yeah so it's either demolition by neglect or dilemma demolition by unlove right yeah right right but i don't want it yeah so okay great good i'm sure you can do a great narrative to make it compelling we can help okay thank you i'll give it a first time and my deadline for the deadline for that it would be september what is it um yes yeah my understanding is the application opens on the 1st of september and closes on the 30th okay so we can tweak it if necessary okay meeting maybe and then okay ready to go in or or you could send it to ben and he could forward it to us individually and we could make comment if you want to turn around faster than ready yeah yeah all right yeah that's what i know is it's not getting started before september 1st no i'm not i'm trying to hear by our next meeting you had something you know pretty well yeah that would be the goal it started on september 1st and have a draft for our meeting and then submit it on the 30th that'd be great got it anybody have any other things they think we should propose to cpa how's it where are we in the cemetery are we at the third year we have all the money now right yeah we yeah yeah um and then the the restoration the headstone restoration project uh came in well under budget so we have a hundred thousand total and this latest round um has only costed about forty 000 total and their uh their work their their final step for us is going to be just create an assessment of like what the next round of repairs would include and then money will stay in the in the budget for the the funding will remain but they have we have to put out another bid don't we to use them again is that what happened last year yep yeah um we want them to continue we can't just say okay come back and use the rest of it yeah i know we'd have to put out another bid and advertise it to three companies and um and uh yeah but yeah so but we could i mean we could finish it off with them next year without applying for more money oh yeah yeah definitely yeah well that's nice how often does that happen i know yeah and then maybe it's on to south america who knows yeah i was thinking about it let's let's maybe just put all our eggs in in robin's basket this year and then you think about the south cemetery yeah the little blue eggs and robins yeah i've got them i've got okay great um then we're all agreed on that we don't need to vote does everybody just feel everybody looks happy okay great super um rules and regs i assume you all read the document ben i think this is going to take a while to do but yeah no this is just an introduction yeah yeah um yeah so basically obviously i've only been in this role for just over two years now i don't know i don't know if these rules and regulations were ever formally adopted or what they are i just found them on on our network drive they have been in the background for us all along we occasionally looked at them but we never felt like it was important to okay i mean but we've always talked about once the bylaw was passed we would update them yeah i know because it's i mean it's called draft it has the draft thing on it so yeah it's from let's live and perpendicular so we need this rules and regulations even though we have had the new bylaw development completely separate from the bylaw it supports it is that what it does yeah but you'll notice 2017. i mean we did do some updating you know there's a lot more to do with the new well now with the new bylaw it's changed and what i would like to suggest if you have time ben is you take this and you take the new bylaw and you just go through and make them match yeah i mean yeah it's not bad it's just like it doesn't have the significance and preferably preserved kind of yeah you know but there's language that has to be changed but i agree with you janet it didn't seem significant to me it seems like it tracks yeah and i think that with a little bit of editing um it can fit the new bylaw and the procedures that we follow uh yeah i love it yeah so basically the the rules and regs like kind of fill in the gaps of the bylaw and talk about some of the more internal procedures and so one thing the reason i want to do this is as well as there's been a few members of the public and some town council members who have uh reached out to me and colleagues in the planning department just about the the whole designee process and um you know we haven't really had our first example yet but there's just some concern about um the that process that determination of significance happening um you know outside of a public meeting necessarily and but on the procedures it wouldn't necessarily note that it was you it would still just say a designee because we could change that at any time so we don't want it set in stone on the procedures no yeah that's not what i was saying i i'm just saying that uh the the the i'm trying to think there there's the rules and regulations could spell out a way a procedure for um if for notifying members of the public somehow about like a pending application yeah um so you know once an application is submitted and you know the designee has 14 days to make a determination whether it's significance there could be during that 14-day window there could be some way in which the public is notified and they're able to weigh in on whether a building is significant um and i think you know that i think there's real value to that too i think there's been a few examples where i send out a butters in the previous bylaw i would send out a butters notices and then a neighbor would email me saying like oh like i bet you didn't know this about this building or you know i've lived here for you know decades and let me tell you a little bit about the history of the building and um it often is really helpful because there's things i can't find out from research you know on my own so um i think you know it's just it's just finding a way finding that balance between the goals of the bylaw which are to kind of streamline the process a little bit but also to give time for input so um you know we've had a few different ideas uh and you know i think i can explore some of those in the rules and regulations one of them is you know literally posting a physical sign outside of a building uh big you know yeah i think northampton does that often when when they have like a pending hearing just like you know something that catches the eye and it's out front in the sidewalk and says you know this building couldn't just say demolition permit a publication in because people would think the whole thing was coming down it would have to be pretty specific right they are pretty specific aren't they i mean the ones that i've seen are have a long language on them but they catch your eye i mean they think it's a great idea yeah um so it was either something like that or you know in addition to that maybe um could create like an i think we talked about this maybe one of our last meetings like creating an email list of the town of like just people who are interested in amherst history and want to be notified of a application that wouldn't necessarily target geographically but it would just be town wide whoever wants to join this email list can you just can it just be i mean i get the um text push messages for like everything yeah could it just be added to that i mean that's sort of you know i mean i like that because it's a text you know if i don't pay attention to it i don't pay attention to it but um you know it's it's really like it would be one less thing to manage it would just go to anybody who's on that yeah maybe i i i would be hesitant to because that's also for like emergencies and i would be hesitant to say oh like the building at you know 120 pine streets up for demolition let's tell the the entire town right um i think i think that could be overused that that but something similar to that i think um i mean you know it's just i mean it's like it's also just a meeting announcement thing right yeah i mean yeah just be like you know there's going to be a hearing for or you know consideration you don't want everybody to know i mean i think the sign is good for people who live in the neighborhood and the emails people who it may be a place that nobody ever drives down that street so they wouldn't see it very interested in historic buildings so you could catch them both with the sign and an email list yeah yeah exactly so um and so yeah there's i think that that's the kind of stuff that would go into the rules and regulations as opposed to the bylaw itself because it's more like the internal happenings of the historical commission and how you guys want to manage the process so put your proposal together yeah yeah there's probably some kind of a packet that could be given to new members that would include something like this and anna's preservation plan maybe you know a sample of a form b you know some of the kind of yeah to go for people who are new to town or new to serving on a commission or a committee you know i think would be great yeah there was a binder once given out right but you know before covert i'm sure it happened because there was a sort of handing over of you know the keys to the kingdom kind of a thing but you know um yeah that would be great okay well ben um come back with what you think it should be and we'll we'll work on it um i know that's the problematic area and the sooner we iron it out and get it down i think it'll make your life easier yeah um a little less worried so okay uh do we have anybody yet who's willing to serve as the design review board representative becky you were going to think about it i i said i would do it oh you will you made the okay because you were going to come back and tell us at this meeting yes okay then so i give it a go oops there there's going to be a meeting august 17th at 5 00. how do i i guess what i would say is how would i i know there's some stuff on on the website about the committee and stuff i see but how do i log in to them i will send a message to maureen who's the wrap like ben from the town and she will put you on the list and get in touch with you and also when i well not when i joined but at some point there was a handbook and i gave it to catherine who apparently moved with it she didn't try to give it back to any of us so it's gone but though yeah you can look at most of the stuff on there and you can look at minutes if they're keeping their minutes up so you can see what yeah um and there are criteria kind of like not as fancy as ours but there are some things to consider so um and and maureen can give you some of that so i'll send her an email saying that you'll be our rep um for the time being if you decide you hate it or whatever we are getting one or two new members so you know but try it i think we have new members like in line yeah and announcements i'll tell about that oh okay um so i guess other questions because i've not been a representative another uh commission is what what is my role is just advising um on the start of the board the design review board yeah you represent us uh you did you deliberate with everybody else about whatever it is and you're you're an evil equal partner with everybody there's a rep from planning board there's like one architect one this one that i mean there's designated positions um but everybody's equal but you just keep in mind historical condition issues right um and that's where you can speak most strongly and you can say as the representative of the historical commission you know i really want to say that this can't happen or whatever or this would be better than that or something like that um but a lot of this stuff doesn't really relate to that what you end up doing so you know would you quit yeah and i i will say jan um maureen's out i think on vacation the rest of this week and next week so oh um but uh i will i think i need to tell paul the town manager because he maintains all the lists so i'll tell paul that becky's been nominated to the drb and then um i guess becky just keep i think just add to your calendar hopefully if you're able to go the next meeting i think like chan said is august 17 17th at five o'clock and so uh maureen will definitely be back you know well before then and can get you the zoom link and i think the the materials are on the website already for that meeting i think it's uh the amherst oyster bar and a few other things downtown so yeah i'm sorry i had to step away do you need my support for becky's um appointment no okay no good um i support it okay okay so yeah then rather than my telling maureen ben if you'll tell paul and then paul will let maureen know that it's a done deal yeah okay because i i i had said that i i told maureen i'd come if nobody else was coming because we haven't had a rep for a few months you know i thought we'd better have somebody there so this is great because i'm i'm really pressed right now for stuff so this is fabulous becky thank you yeah it will be honestly i learned a lot and you get to know every new restaurant that comes to town which is they roll around a lot you know what's happening with that oyster bar anyway i'll find out we'll be asking you okay do we have any public members who want to comment they're not attendees anymore okay okay announcements we did have some interviews and there was one person who applied to the historical commission who is a preservation specialist historic preservation specialist wow and um we agreed and so she is now presented to the council as a possibility and then they have to vote and once they do paul can appoint her so their meeting is sometime this month really soon on monday yeah yeah and then once they approve then she would be invited to our september meeting so and i'll tell you all when i introduce her and then another person i've been sending out loads of emails i think i've sent out 15 now asking people to consider joining likely people mostly academics and you know architecture and art history and things like that that should be relevant history landscape um and i had one person bite who actually is in none of those but it's really hard to find faculty who live in town so that's the the criteria that always gets me but i have somebody who's um a faculty member at holyoke who said she was going to turn in the citizen interest form and i haven't heard from paul about that we were going to go ahead and interview her if it came in but ben did you ever notice whether um that that came through um i don't have access to the like citizen inbox of the activity forms um i did just get an email from angela mills letting me know that they want to schedule more interviews next week okay so that indic that would indicate to me probably yes um and the historical commission is on that list yeah yeah it must be okay great maybe some others too but we we need at least two and then of course by the end of the year we'll need another so everybody should keep beating the bushes um but this new person if she has time she would be a real asset and you know may be able to to lead some of these things robin i know robin's concerned about that any announcements from you ben um uh not at this time no okay great any unanticipated items anybody wants to bring up nope do we have a meeting date i believe we do for september we picked uh the 15th september 15th ben what what was the i'm assuming we're all meeting remotely again it was decided oh yeah that remote meeting because like i mean because we're meeting remotely i guess it's okay yeah that though was extended by the governor's order and how long was yeah uh this time around i honestly don't even remember it was at least a year i think oh great okay i never have to conduct a meeting no actually i like them but i know it's hard to do yeah it's tough with um with uh guests presenting to orchestrate coming to town hall i mean i'm open to an in-person meeting if we ever don't have guests coming but um i know the in the september meeting the architects from the jones library are planning to uh present and we don't want to make them drive all the way up from boston for that so yeah um and then yeah that'll be a good meeting that's uh kind of the opportunity to preview um the uh the jones library project provides some feedback they're kind of at a good point now because they're just finishing what's it called schematic design and now they're moving on to like refining and developing the design further so um yeah i'll make sure to get you all those drawings and materials as well and everything we can see in advance shortens the meeting yeah and i think i know i i saw the initial package and it's like hundreds of pages long and i was going to suggest to them like you guys don't need to see the like fire sprinklers plan and like all that stuff they should really create yeah yeah it's just it's a floor plan for community use that's more critical for us i think to review yeah it's the floor plan and the kind of exterior um things that affect our yeah which is our our interests right yeah but thursday the 15th of september is what i have on my calendar that's what i just said yeah correct yep and ben be sure you tell them we don't need them to do a long introduction repeating everything we just read yeah okay these these long i mean it was great that the the korean church came but we just need to emphasize succinct to the point you know so okay so yeah this report ben is there is there a uh executive summary to it well that's not that i don't have to wade through all the hundreds of pages to find what what our purview is um so i i can describe over the email i guess what your purview is i don't know if they have a written like summary of the entire project at this point but uh at the very least i can look at it myself and kind of reference the page numbers that are important for you all to look at um and just delete the pages that are not relevant like all the utilities and stuff like that if if you have the time been that would save save this committee they could too i mean this is part of what they're being paid to do yeah right exactly that's why i was asking for the executive summary or what i'm not sure what you call it an architectural report but yeah okay so we have a meeting date uh we don't have anything else so anybody want to move to adjourn and move adjourn one hour my second if i didn't first everybody seconded it okay anybody want to vote we can do it by a show of hands everybody ready to adjourn okay that was easy thank you ben thank you everybody thank you everybody thank you ben awesome take care everyone you

Blender 2.83 : Flips, Spins, & Problems You Will Have (In 3 Minutes!!!)
so you love spinning it's your favorite and it should because it makes all your attacks three times as strong but you just can't seem to get a hang of it in blender not a problem first thing you are gonna need to do is select the master root bone not the root bone of the body the root bone of the entire rig then press I attack it move to another point on the timeline and with the record button active click an axis on the gimbal and rotate it as many times as you want you're done if you press play to test it you will now see your character spinning that many times in between these two frames you can also do this by pressing R X Y or Z and type the amount of degrees you want it to spin or you could just go here and type it whatever floats your boat but here's the catch you have to make sure that you are in Euler mode for this to work when I was creating the rig I had my rotation set to quaternion because it was easier to calculate the math formulas for the shape keys and bone correction drivers and I left it that way ever since but if you try to do the same rotation trick while it's set to quaternion it never lets you go past 180 degrees rotation has to be said to you or if you want to rotate multiple times and you can't really change your mind after you start animating this is what this animation is supposed to look like you can see the base rotation controls the direction of the kick now watch what happens when I try to switch to Euler after doing all of my animations in quaternion see that I just lost all the rotation data for this bone and it's not just this animation all of the rotation data for this bone has been destroyed across every single one of my animations that's right all of them gone so just be careful because apparently it is possible to ruin all of your animations when you're trying to mess with one now there's actually one more problem that you should really know about and it's that rotation kind of just stops working unless your character is perfectly flat if we tilt her just a little and try and do the same thing this is what will happen instead doesn't matter if you try and do it manually the rotation will still be broken so what do you do about it well you really just have two options here you have the brute force method which is switching your rotation mode to quaternion and manually keying your rotation every 60 degrees the other method is to design your rig around this problem you could parent the route bone to another route bone and that bone sole purpose would be to spin so every time you wanted to spin something horizontally you would use this one and every time you wanted to spend something vertically you would use that one that's honestly the best solution I think you're gonna get unless blender finally decides to make sure that this stuff should be working properly but whatever I'm looking forward to this being fixed anyway hope that helps if you enjoyed this video please don't forget to Like subscribe and ring that bell hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around

The Invention of the Savage: Philosophy, Politics and the Ideologies of Development | SOAS
welcome to the development study seminar um we're delighted to welcome dr alberto toscano who's here today to talk about the invention of the savage philosophy politics and the ideologies of development alberto is a reader in critical theory and the co-director of the center for philosophy and critical theory at goldsmiths at the university of london his books include the theatre of production philosophy and individuation between kant and de luz fanaticism on the uses of an idea and with jeff kinkel cartographies of the absolute um he has translated several works by alan badier as well as antonia negri furio jesse and franco fortini he has sat on the editorial board of the journal historical materialism since 2004 and he's series editor of the italian list for seagulls books he's currently working on two book projects the first on tragedy as a political form the second on philosophy capitalism and real abstraction alberto is going to speak for 45 to 50 minutes and then we will hear a response and some comments from dr subia sinha who is senior lecturer in institutions and development from here in the department and then we will take questions from the floor before we have final summing up by alberto if you're tweeting um then use the hashtags soasdevstudies and esrc um i am obviously chairing so i'll be waving notes around if anyone goes on for too long um and i think we're ready to start okay many uh thanks to the department um and to [Music] so beer uh also for being a respondent and to all of you for coming along um and also especially to faizy for the uh invitation so um this paper is part of a project to engage in a sense from the angle of the history of philosophy which is something i've dabbled in uh with uh the question um of the savage and the place of the savage in the genealogies and um conflicts even within the european uh philosophical tradition as part of a way to engage with contemporary debates about the decolonization of philosophy and of the curriculum more broadly and part of it was actually the effect of a brief visit as a visiting uh lecturer at simon fraser university in vancouver uh and partly occasioned by the fact that the whole figure of the the canadian was already present in early 18th century french and german philosophy is a sort of object of speculation by which canadian was meant uh the indigenous population especially of what is today called uh quebec i won't talk about that today but i just wanted to sort of note some of the sources for the project so the talk has a an epigram from sorry the uh um french political anthropologist pierre klaustre who i'll return to uh towards the conclusion he writes in a very important essay copernicus and the savages from his book society against the state it is imperative to accept the idea that negation does not signify nothingness that when the mirror does not reflect our own likeness it does not prove there is nothing to perceive so the widespread call to decolonize philosophy in the social sciences demands a preliminary assessment of the shaping power of the colonial relation across different disciplinary histories such an inquiry will involve an excavation of how the european encounter with and exploitation of other peoples conditioned the different forms taken by what the french philosopher etienne balibar has called the problem of anthropological difference which is in part also of course the problem of otherness more broadly my concern tonight is to explore how philosophers adopted adapted and transformed and in a sense invented the figure of the savage from the mid to late 16th to the late 18th century the savage is a kind of living negation or inverted image of so-called civilized western humanity further i'd also like to think about how this invention was entangled at key junctures with the emergence of some of the ideological components of later conceptions of development as well as the seeds of the critical appropriation of political economy in historical materialism and marxism more broadly now from harkhammer and adorno's location of anti-semitism within the dialectic of enlightenment to syed's orientalism from simone de bova's second sex to cedric robinson's black marxism the critical history of western philosophy and rationality has abounded in explorations of the intimate if often obscured bonds between the speculative subjections of the kind of ideal subjection of otherness and its social material effects or broadly uh has reflected on the ideological and material and political role of forms of uh othering the blatant instrumentality of the idea of the savage to the colonial project from the spanish conquest to the ongoing dispossession of indigenous peoples across the globe would appear to militate against any sustained and nuanced exploration of the idea it just seemed to be a kind of crass tool for colonial our imperial rule surely we might be seen to be dealing with a blunt test of racist and legitimizing myths something to be thought politically rather than discussed academically now for all the partial truth of that statement in what follows i want to propose that in part contrary to this justifiable reflex there is much to be gained in an investigation of the uses to which the idea of the savage was put by european thinkers in the crucible of colonial modernity including for contemporary debates about decolonization of an academic or perhaps even more practical sort so what kind of other is the savage at first and perhaps second and third glance as well the savage seems to differ from the others that have submagnetized 20th century critical thought it seems to lack the unsettling subversive qualities which reasons confrontation with alterity is often deemed to have for instance in texts like foucault's history of madness for instance reflecting recently on the articulation of difference otherness and exclusion in the phenomenon of racism balibar in dialogue with edward said's orientalism presents that book as a paradigmatic study of something like an essential otherness an uncanny double um an uncanny double say balabar says regarding said's book who is not only an adversary but embodies a negation of one's moral and aesthetic and intellectual values another who at the same time in the most contradictory manner has to be constructed as a passive object of representation study dissections classifications and an active subject so another who is also an active subject of threats or simply of an alternative path to civilization and salvation he goes on here's the quote the construction of the other is a construction of an alienated self where all the properties attributed to the other are inversions and distortions of those vindicated for oneself where indeed the self is nothing but the other's other whose identity and stability is permanently asserted and secured in the imaginary through the representation of an essential other or an essentialized other whose identity and this is a kind of key point in this respect arrives from the other in inverted form now does the savage fit such a nuanced image of how alterity operates in the construction of dominant forms of identity i think the answer is a mixed one on the one hand as i hope to detail below the savage is in some sense the perfect other the product of a matrix or even an accumulation of negations he is exactly what we are not especially in a lot of these colonial texts on the other hand largely because this negation is very formal at times very one-dimensional the savage is rarely if at all in a lot of these texts from the mid 16th to the 18th century though i will go through some of the exceptions the occasion for a limit experience or an uncanny encounter of the kind that the likes of foucault talked about in terms of madness it seems to serve at best as the locus of an ironic reversal and skepticism about the vaunted values and virtues of the civilized a sort of ironic mirror so to speak but not necessarily a particularly nuanced one no doubt this is also an effect of the reliance of this philosophical literature on missionary literature the writings especially of jesuit priests for instance already steeped in classical and christian images of otherness rather than on the actual encounters between settlers and first nations the figure of the savage in this regard has been seen by a lot of scholars of this issue as a product of what they call comparative negation the italian historian sergio landucci who wrote a landmark book called the philosopher and the savages unfortunately still untranslated into english starts his periodization of philosophy's invention of the savage with um michelle de montagne's very famous short essay of the cannibals or on the cannibals depending on the translation this is a text which in john florio's early 17th century translation includes the following um famous lines referring to the native populations encountered by french colonists and missionaries in brazil or what they called antarctic france yeah indeed um it is a nation would i answer plato he's of course referring to the republic that have no kind of traffic no knowledge of letters no intelligence of numbers no name of magistrate nor of politics superiority no use of service or riches of poverty no contracts no successions no dividends no occupations but idle no respect of kindred but common no apparel but natural no manuring of lands no use of wine corn or metal that uh engraving by um uh taylor debris which uh some of whose other engravings i'll turn to uh later is from one of the uh accounts um uh this sort of absurd nissan sand of uh the supposed acts of cannibalism as a kind of collective barbecue uh bearing no ethnographic uh um verity nevertheless is what is from is based on one of the travel accounts that the montana had also used now in montana this logic of negation or privation or lack was intended to frame the radical diversity he identified as part of human nature as at a more philosophical level and skeptically to puncture the superior pride of the so-called civilized he meant to use the account of the cannibal to relativize the very category of barbarism which is one of the categories that accompanies in quite complex ways a category of savage throughout this history and by proposing that the savage's greater closeness to nature condemned the bastardizing effects of our artificial customs one of the reasons why he's been linked also to various mythologies of the golden age that projected themselves onto this figure of the savage montana would then fill in the framework of otherness or difference by negation with descriptions of forms of life especially activities of warfare and indeed of anthropophagy or cannibalism itself which were incommensurable enough with those of his contemporaries in france to undermine dominant doctrines of his time that defines something like a universalizing political anthropology so part of the skeptical position and the reason why he's been seen including by the likes of claude de vistas as a precursor of variance of cultural relativism was an attack on forms of medieval and renaissance conceptions of human universality above all the christian idea of the consensus gentium of the of the agreement of the peoples and aristotle's vision of man as a political animal so in some sense that was those are some of the universalizing tropes that the figure of the cannibal was meant to undo though the uses and effects of montana savage in which negation indifference heralded a skeptical and ironic suspension of europe's divisive confidence in its own superiority were of a kind so generous his effort at a dispassionate description of indigenous life was perhaps unique the logic of comparative negations all of these you know no kind of traffic no magistrate etc was immensely common across this period so this just to reiterate even though it's a very significant variant of it is not in any way unique to montana in fact it's the aspect of on cannibals which he shares with most thinkers so just to give you a couple of examples but they are really legion in one of the very first travel narratives from the new world um a famous letter to his patron lodenso de medici the florentine navigator medical vespucci the one after whom the continent continents was uh were named um not by himself by the cartographer mercator in 1530 this is what vespucci declared so this is a letter from the early 1500s they have no cloth either of wool linen or cotton since they needed not neither do they have goods of their own but all things are held in common they live together without king with our government and each is his own master they marry as many wives as they please et cetera et cetera et cetera then beyond the fact that they have no church no religion and are not idolaters what more can i say they live according to nature and may be called your epicureans rather than stoics it shows in part also how relentless the ancient greek reference was for all of these uh debates there are no merchants among their number nor there is barter the nations wage war upon one another without art or order in 1505 a virg version of vespucci's own comparative negation would capture one of the first visual representations of amer amir indian peoples in europe so this is the 1505 um engraving columbus writing in 1493 announcing his discovery in another famous letter spoke of the natives of uh hispaniola as having no iron and steel nor any weapons nor are they fit thereon too in 1511 um peter martyrdongaria in another landmark tax for the european perception of indigenous peoples of the americas would write in similar terms beginning the letter again with this what turns out to be a kind of peculiarly utopian uh trope perhaps despite itself land is as common as the sun and water mine and thine the seeds of all mischief have no place with them so this also belongs again to this kind of resonance of a golden age figure as margaret hodgin has shown citing these and other examples from the early 16th century passages such as this formed what she calls conventionalized statements not unique to any one author or particularly philosophical in orientation the barbarous or savage other was defined by the privation the lack of the innumerable elements of western civilization law property sovereign power the mechanical arts agriculture mathematics writing commerce money and so on this particular convention the negative itemizing of difference is nion ubiquitous from the 16th century onwards and can be registered across travelers chronicles in enlightenment encyclopedias and dictionaries and from khan's anthropology to darwin's voyages but there's also nothing particularly modern about this ethnocentric logic of contrast with the other who only exists as an absence or negative of the self one can encounter it in the 12th century old french roman alexander where the indian brahmin were described as having no agriculture no iron no building no fire no bread no wine no clothing etc but also an ancient roman and greek accounts of the nomadic scythians it's also uncanny how much in these uh colonial travel narratives etc there is just a kind of quotation or mapping of these classical figures of barbarism or otherness onto the amerindian populations so strabo in the first century bc writes about scythians as knowing nothing about the storing of food or about the peddling of merchandise either etc so this monotony of comparative negation is no surprise if we reflect on the extent to which renaissance and early modern thinkers cognized the world through frameworks compounded from ancient roman and greek traditions and their biblical hybrids the new world savage is always haunted by ancient utopias of golden ages or alternatively by classical figures of barbarism or at times by both as hayden white has suggested in his suggestion in his study of the forms of wildness what he calls the forms of wildness that preceded the emergence of the colonial and modern figure of the savage what we are dealing with in this pattern is what he calls a technique of ostensive self-definition by negation or what he calls the creation of anti-types so the savage would be precisely one of these anti-types and a particularly potent one from a certain angle the modern savage could be seen as the illusory realization of the fantastical figure very present across european cultures in the pre-colonial period of the wild man which had um menaced and enlivened the real and psychic margins of european cultures in antiquity in the middle ages and of course here one could enter into a whole debate about the ways in which uh imaginaries fantasies and cultural tropes internal to the experience of european cultures including their own internal forms of racialization preempted proceeded and were projected onto the colony so which also in many ways dulls the extent to which one thinks that the encounter with otherness etc was what uh produced these figures of savaging so did anything uncanny remain in the formalization projection and spatialization of the pre-colonial homo sylvaticus or wild man onto the native peoples of the americas anything that would confront a colonizing rationality with the experience of its limits in a sense i just want to continue to see to what extent there are points at which the figure of the savage somehow causes the kind of unsettling uncanniness and disturbance that someone like balabar mentioned in the quote before now we might be tempted to single out the idea of the noble savage as such a limit but such an identification would be mistaken as a whole slew of scholars have shown the noble savage is largely a retroactive ideological construction about the positions that people held in the 16th 17th and 18th century and in fact in a very interesting book by tara ellingson it's argued quite persuasively that it's in fact a late 19th century british imperial debate which creates the figure of the noble savage as a way of warning people against the supposed russoian primitivism and instead supporting the virtues of various uh imperial missions now building us on a suggestion by another historian michel ducey we could further argue that to the extent that the reality of the savage world is trapped in a network of negations uh it is the very formalism of these negations so the very kind of repetitious not this not that uh which i've already gone through which um ironically opens them up to a quasi-structuralist play of combinations and inversions as well as the emergence of a kind of set of negative utopias you know no mine no dying no commerce no money and so on and so forth as i will suggest in a moment i think it also matters to the historical mutation in the figure of the savage which negations take precedence so i think it's very significant once one turns to how the figure of the savage is used especially by modern political philosophers uh hobbs unlock above all what is the order what is the precedence uh what matters most not property not money not religion etc is a savage primarily the human without property or in the positive vein with common possessions without religion or with non-monotheistic spiritual practices without government or with equality without industriousness or with freedom in the sense that every negation can be shadowed by some positive figure so the negation of property for instance by that of the commons as concerns utopians that in moments of cultural political and economic crisis we could see the anti-type as becoming potentially a positive type even we could add a kind of prototype rather than a positive evaluation of indigenous amerindian societies though this is not wholly absent for instance in the writings of certain missionaries the nobility in the sense of affirmative value of the savage lies in its negativity by now i imagine especially with those various quotes some of you may have already heard echoing in these litanies of comparative negation august blankey's famous libertarian communist slogan nidia nimetra no gods no masters which literally appears in a number of these quotes already in the 16th century now this negative dialectic of savage dystopia and colonial utopia is present in what is perhaps the most well-known literary instantiation of the savage as the comparative negation of the civilized this is gonzalo's evocation in act two scene one of shakespeare is a tempest of the anti-political commonwealth that he would impose had he the chance on prospero's island in the commonwealth i would by contraries execute all things for no kind of traffic would i admit no name of magistrate letter should not be known richest poverty and use of service none contract succession born bond of land tilth vineyard none no use of metal corn or wine or oil no occupation all men idle all and women too but innocent and pure no sovereignty all things in common nature should produce without sweat or endeavor treason felony sword pike knife gun or need of any engine would i not have but nature should bring forth of its own kind all faizon all abundance to feed my innocent people now as shakespeare scholars began to notice in the late 18th century and continue to discuss to this day the speech is just a kind of plagiarism or deterrent amount of montana's of cannibals which shakespeare had read in this john florio translation of course as hodgin has argued if it is indeed the case as it very much seems to be that shakespeare took this from montana then shakespeare barred from the least original most conventional of montana's musings on the philosophical lessons of brazilian cannibalism what is perhaps more telling and perhaps more critically interesting in uh shakespeare is that this is a european's utopia of the island as a kind of taboo where one may allied or invert civilization in its discontents not a description of the so-called natives who receive in the figure of caliban a much more pejorative but also much more unsettling and interesting image where the presence here perhaps of a kind of secondary or imaginary colonization the one that projects onto savage colonized lands spatializing it a european desire for the negation of one's own civilization a desire which as hayden white suggests inverts the valence of the antitype in moments of cultural crisis shakespeare and this is also the brilliance of this whole passage in some sense punctures the certainties of this colonial utopian imagination with the interjection of the other figure uh antonio's real politique moment when he says to gonzalo after he's enumerated this uh uh you know fantasy of the commons the latter end of his commonwealth forgets the beginning gonzalez withering of the way of the state in the colonies forgets the birth of his commonwealth the clearing of his commonwealth that it is a fact of treason felony sword pike knife gun now when the martinique and anti-colonial poet and politician ms adopted shakespeare's play in his own a tempest in 1969 the words he put in gonzalo's mouth also spoke to the limits of his negative and primitivist colonial utopia this is gonzalo in caesarea i mean that if the island is inhabited as i believe and if we colonize it as is my hope then we have to take every precaution not to import our shortcomings yes what we call civilization they must stay as they are savages noble and good savages free without any complexes or complications something like a pool granting eternal youth where we periodically come to restore our aging citified souls very corrosive reading of the of of the already pretty uh salient subtext in shakespeare as well now i haven't forgotten about philosophy or its history and it seems fitting now to turn to the most fiercely anti-utopian of modern philosophers thomas hobbes who's a crucial author in a number of these histories of the relationship between philosophy and the figure of the savage especially the work of the italian historian landucci with hobbes we can briefly explore how explore how notwithstanding the seemingly trans-historical immobility invariance portability of the savage as this kind of anti-type what seem to be the same kind of negations can be the bearers of very different philosophical contents and projects so four decades after shakespeare's tempest hobbes leviathan depicted the state of nature in the following very well-known terms so the first half of the quotation during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in all they are in condition which is called war in such condition there is no place for industry because the fruit thereof is uncertain and consequently no culture of the earth no navigation or use of the commodities that may be imported by sea no commodious building no instruments of moving and removing such things as requiring much force no knowledge of the face of the earth no account of time no arts no letters no society and which is the worst of all continual fear and danger violent death and the life of man solitary poor nasty brutish and short now modern political philosophy is arguably born of this matrix of negations juxtaposing an imaginary that is both formalistic and terrifying in its idea of pure privation in the state of nature a privation that leads to the imperative necessity of the state what obs famously called that artificial man hobbes who was personally involved in the colonial enterprise as a stockholder of the virginia company and here depicted a massacre in jamestown was in in 1621 was arguably one of the haunting images of uh a war that also accompanied him um hobbes spoke of what he called the savages of america sparingly again notwithstanding his commercial participations but he did so crucial points in his over and the role of ethnological accounts of north american forms of life in shoring up or verifying hobbs's political anthropology should not be underestimated uh homo-harmony lupus-est man is a wolf to man was after all an expression that apparently was first used in a colonial travel narrative two paragraphs after the very famous and very widely quoted formulation solitary poor nasty brutish and short and anticipating the response of a skeptical reader who would think this is just a kind of philosophical thought experiment or fancy hobbes notes the following from which the second bit of the quote is taken it may pair adventure be thought that there was never such a time nor condition of war as this and i believe it was never generally so over all the world but there are many places where they live so now that's not an insignificant moment for the savage people in many places of america and when he says in many places of america it's also parenthetically interesting that there's a whole elaborate debate about the problems faced by philosophers proto ethnologist missionaries etc and differentiating between the so-called savages i.e amerindian people without visibly state-like structures of power and the uh inca or the aztec which were often put in an entirely different category so he says for the savage people in many places of america except the government of small families the conquered war of dependence and natural lust have no government at all and live at this day in that british manner as i said before however maybe perceived what manner of life there would be were there no common power to fear by the manner of life which men that have formerly lived under a peaceful government used to degenerate into civil war so it's contemporary civil wars and the uh condition of the so-called savages of america as a kind of evidence for what is otherwise uh seemingly deductive or quasi kind of transcendental argument now a number of elements of hobbes's usage of the savage antitype are worth pausing on the first is that while hobbs firmly rejects aristotle's political anthropology and psychology so a psychology in which man was a political animal in which being in a society and being in a city uh being in a civic space or a convertible with one another another he rejects this especially by affirming the thoroughly artificial character of politics so there's no there's not a human teleology towards the political in the same way that aristotelians including in his own time would have thought this also means that he removes all of the bases uh very significant to um justifications by certain theologians of the spanish conquest that the amerindian people were natural slaves that they were somehow anthropologically and psychologically lacking and therefore demanding some kind of slavery or rule but what he does do in this artificial vein is affirm an identity between social life and life under state not in the natural sense but in the artificial sense so there's both a rejection of aristotle in a very different vein which marks out hobbes modernity an identification of social life which involves industry and property and commerce etc with the need to have life under a state the state like property itself is a thoroughly artificial institution whereas if we can speak of a natural state among human beings this will be a kind of state of civil war though he certainly situated the savage on an inferior rung in the hierarchy of what he called the civilized arts hobbs like his 17th century rationalist contemporaries could be seen to maintain an ultimately homogeneous and paradoxically egalitarian philosophical anthropology social and political difference for hobbes were necessary and solitary but they were not natural this also involved this is also very interesting to think in fact that you know the the kind of uh extreme uh racist statements easily found in the likes of david hume or indeed voltaire are completely absent from the cognitive space of the likes of descartes and hobbes which is not an insignificant realization now this also involved positing that in the contemporary savage condition one could read the past of european countries themselves this is the perception of the other as allah chronic living in another previous time and in a space other than time which johannes fabian juxtaposed to the notion of non-western cultures as co-evil which he saw as part of a of a different anthropological gaze um it is a view that's painfully manifest in all of those anthropological visions of the savage as a kind of living fossil this is what pierre claster identifies and as what he calls the ancient western conviction that history is a one-way street the societies without power are the image of what we have ceased to be and for them our culture is the image of what they have to become now this theme of the savage as the past and the present so to speak later crystallized in john locke's famous dictum in the beginning the whole world was america makes an important appearance in hobbs himself in 1642 in the elements of law where he writes of quote the experience of savage nations that live at this day and by the history of his of our ancestors so this is a kind of short circuit this interjection of the savagery projected into the americans into europe is also present in the iconography uh and in the in in the frontis pieces that accompanied uh hobbes's work so for instance hobbes is the chive which quotes um uh the engravings by theodore debris of a book on the conquest of virginia so you can see here the figures of uh imperium and libertas behind libertas you see humans hunting humans this is exactly the image that's taken from the same kind of image of the back of theater debris accounts of virginia which again is the place where holmes has his own colonial interests the visual juxtaposition of the sovereign um imperium on the left and its accoutrements of production science security farming etc and savage libertas on the right could not be a pithier counterpart to the practice of comparative negation you know the the savages on the right the civilized on the left at the same time however it indicates the openly repressed utopian dimension of modern political philosophy which in hobbs but also quite explicitly in locke and adam smith after him recognizes that the security order and production are gained at the cost of freedom freedom is in a sense what needs to be sacrificed for production to exist or at least a certain type of freedom the iconography also shows us how much the imagination of the americas was steeped in a classical visual and political culture watch one which in the case of debris compendium made graphic the link between new world and old world savager so for instance the breeze accompanied his uh plates on virginia with plates supposedly depicting the savage state of the earlier inhabitants of the british isles depicts so this is again how the the notion is that there is this sort of short circuit between the uh new world space of savagery and the savage past of uh and the racialized savage paths of europe itself attention to hobbes's own use of the savage anti-type instructs us that rather than representing an ethnocentric invariant across western history it shifted in historically significant ways and that these shifts were articulated at least in part in terms of what we could call a hierarchy of negations in other words hobbes's list largely seems to match those of montana and indeed seems to echo those ancient and medieval cases i mentioned but in it one negation reigns supreme the negation of the state it is from this or rather not necessarily from its negation from its absence or lack that from the savage absence of sovereign government that everything else follows the absence of laws property of security of agricultural development productive labor of the arts and so on contrast the dislocation of this hierarchy by lock for whom it is the absence of property and land and the division of labor attended there too which is the dominant negation from which the others including especially that of government follow so it's a complete difference in this order of negation which has massive influence on questions of political philosophy this recombination of comparative negation from the problem of political order or security in hobs to that of productive development and property in lock will be crucial in opening the way for what some historians including landucci and indeed anthony pagdon see as a move of the philosophical figure of the savage beyond this kind of moral axiomatic comparative negation which can go from you know dystopia to romanticism towards the placing of the savage within a historical and materialist problematic of social development so in some sense at least according to some of these histories it is moving away from hobbs primacy of the state towards a way of thinking made possible by the primacy of property in lock and then of ways of living or means of subsistence in montesquieu that uh uh um and the 18th century the late 18th century the enlightenment and classical political economy can start to develop this kind of stagist conception of social development in which means of subsistence serve as a basis on which the superstructure of laws states property government the arts and religion reside this is a paradigm that will be fundamental to the development of classical political economy and its philosophical anthropology above all in the work of the scottish enlightenment from william robertson's history of america to adam smith's writings on law history and economics now for historians like landucci and in english roland ronald meek in his famous book social science and the ignoble savage which in a sense presents the scottish enlightenment as a kind of rather virtuous precursor of marxism for such historians notwithstanding all of its shortcomings this bourgeois social science of development will mark a crucial step between the formalism beyond the formalism of the civilized and the barbers in the direction of a kind of positive knowledge of social and cultural change and conflict this progressive history in which the scottish enlightenment is marxism's scientific precursor has to incorporate to my mind a little too quickly and a little too smoothly the acknowledged fact that modern racism is a key function of the shift from a rationalist to a socio-historical conception of the savage but it must also to my mind under play as i believe someone like landucci does the way in which the framework of negation is transmuted but not abandoned in these kind of ethnological and anthropological writings that accompany scottish enlightenment notions of development this is manifest above all in the endurance of the lock-in axiom that from the absence or lack of property there derive all of the other absences lacks and lags that pertain to the savage condition and it is demonstrated in the extremely selective way in which the writers of the scottish enlightenment kind of assimilated and edited the travel narratives of jesuit missionaries in north america to minimize their agricultural practices for instance which didn't really fit into the stage's history to marginalize a record of collective political deliberation in order to argue that they hadn't developed particularly elaborate state forms if we abandon the prejudice whereby historicism even if laced with the properties ideologies of racial capitalism is to be preferred to rationalism allah hobbes if only as a precursor of marxism um we can nevertheless draw i think an important lesson from these studies of the figure of the savage and especially from lando she's the philosopher and the savages where he identifies the key turning point in the history of european philosophies conceptualization of the savage in the thesis and this is i think key that there can be societies without a state so this is for landucca kind of moment of cognitive and philosophical discovery especially in the 18th century engagement with north american [Music] north american indigenous peoples the sharpest statement of this anti-hobbyian argument which seeks to counter an identification of social life with governed life established in europe from aristotle onwards is to be found in a text from leibniz from 1711. leibniz is responding to these very peculiar uh writings of uh french soldier of uh fortune belvon de lantan especially this uh fictionalized dialogue uh with uh uh with um an indigenous uh philosopher um and this is what leibniz uh writes the iroquois and the huron have reversed the excessively universal political maxims of aristotle and hobbes they have shown that entire peoples can live without magistrates and without quarrels but the rudeness of the savages shows that it is not so much necessity but the inclination to go towards the good and approach happiness by mutual assistance that is the foundation of societies and states a year earlier in a letter also engaging with his reading of london leibniz had subverted the logic of comparative negation even more thoroughly writing that it is entirely truthful that the americans of these regions live together without any government but in peace they know no fights nor hatred nor battles or not many except against men of different nations and languages i would say almost say that we are dealing with a political miracle unknown by aristotle and ignored by hobbes so to conclude whatever the truthfulness of such claims which of course were also staked on a largely entirely fictional text like the one of baron de lantan it is striking that leibniz's mention of a political miracle opens up a possibility very distant from most european and philosophical responses to the encounter with the indigenous populations of the americas namely that rather than the negation of europe and its notions of the political a negation that may be utopian or subversive but which is entirely drawn from within an imaginary repertoire of greco-roman and judeo-christian sources that perhaps the encounter with north american societies may have required a different and unprecedented thinking of politics as many commentators have detailed the colonial encounter with the indigenous population of the americas was one marked in the intellectual sphere by the assimilation to models myths conceptual imaginaries and formal taxonomies that populated the european mind in that period an encounter in which comparativism was laced with the violence of an imperialist instrumental rationality in this sense the idea of the savage largely served as a screen in that regard very rarely was there a sense as in leibniz's political miracle that the people of the americas could force europe to dislocate to expatriate its legal political or economic philosophies in a sense european intellectual life would have to wait until the second half of the 20th century for the emergence of radical trends in anthropology to unfold the kind of miracle where of liveness spoke and to conclude with this pier clusters society against the state for instance could be read as an extended elaboration of the anti-aristotelian and anti-hobson effects of the encounter with amerindian people first glimpsed by leibniz from his field works among the guayaqui indians in paraguay as in the evidence of so much anthropological work across the americas clastro would draw a drastic challenge to the anthropology of the west namely in the ubiquity in both north and south america of societies where political power was not or indeed politics was not synonymous with the dialectic of obedience and command with the monopolization of violence and the separation of a political sphere classroom would even go so far as portraying amerindian forms of chieftain as collective strategies to prevent the emergence of politics as sovereign domination as he commented one is confronted then by a vast constellation of societies in which the holders of what elsewhere would be called power are actually without power where the political is determined as a domain beyond coercion and violence beyond hierarchical subordination where in a word no relationship of command obedience is in force this is a major difference of the indian world and i'll stop here so we can open up the questions thank you very much alberto um we're now going to um have about five minutes of um commentary and response from dr subia sinha for those of you who don't know him um subir is a senior lecturer in the department of development studies with research expertise among other things in institutional change social movement state society relations and south asian politics where is everyone going i thought you were here to listen to my response to the scandals uh anyway there's more air for us to breathe thank you very much alberto that was a really fantastic job one minute yeah settle down yeah those who yeah [Music] i think we're good now yes [Music] [Laughter] okay i'm not quite sure how that happened but loads of people left and yet we still have a full lecture theater so thanks very much alberto really excellent talk uh i think some of you might who are taking courses in development studies found some things in common with what we've been talking about in the last two or three weeks um i basically want to you know have three different uh points that are sets of points that i'd like to make you can hear me in the back yes yeah okay closer to the microphone okay uh the first one is in a bizarre way i was actually you know kind of uh comforted to see that even the depictions of savages that you have have a human form in the sense that just uh barely 200 years before some of the documents that you showed if one looked at the salter map or the mapa mundi these two famous maps of the 13th and 14th centuries the rest of the world was actually inhabited by monsters you had people who had faces in their chests but without a head whatsoever or you were depicted uh you had depictions of other places outside of europe where hybrids of people with dog heads and human bodies etc used to reside so in a strange kind of way it almost appears to me that these depictions are on the verge of granting humanity to the savage which was not the case even a couple of hundred years before and to me that uh you know raises a certain set of questions which are along the following lines is the savage actually on a continuum from the monster to the human uh and secondly if that is the case then is savaging an active process the construction of and the making of and the taming off and the prescription of things to be done to the savage seems to be on a particular kind of continuum and of course uh incipient in the text that you and in fact explicit in some of the texts that you have shown there is the justification for slavery and for colonization and for the formation of the state and and the like so uh that that i think is an interesting one which is that you know in in some ways the depiction of the savage and the writings about them are uh moments in time if you like of a longer historical process of converting monsters into human beings the second element which is connected to that is that this uh if one was to look at a slightly different but contemporaneous text and you know i communicated with you earlier on that and i have in mind particularly the writings of theologians from the university of salamanca in portugal in the 16th century especially theologians uh such as federico de vittoria and they basically making an interesting argument which is that from the early 1500s they are thinking of the savage as human and in fact they want to take certain elements of what they believe to be universalistic elements of theological philosophy particularly that coming out of thomas aquinas to try and see if they can expand that to include those who live in these lands so explicit writings on the application of just war theory to uh resistance and defensive mechanisms of savages which i think is a kind of a universalizing move second the idea whether or not if someone was offered the chance to accept christ as their lord and master in a language they did not recognize and then for them to be killed because they did not accept christ there is a question regarding whether or not they have a life a right to life and i think that is also quite interesting that it is co-terminus with some of the writings which seem to be depicting them in ways that put them beyond the pale of universality and offer kind of a an obstinate otherness which seems at this moment as being uh almost impossible to erase so to there is a very exaggerated otherness but at the same time there seems to be a desire to bring them within the domain of the universal and i think there's a nice tension there uh in in this particular you know dimension the second is that it is not just about the other ring it seems to me but it is also about uh you know common uh creating a categorization and hierarchization of otherness so you've got the lacks that you mentioned and you know i sort of was reminded of michael adaes's book from 1989 which is machines as the measure of man where he basically looks at how europeans devised a classification of populations around the world based precisely on some of the lacks that you that you have described and in particular the lacks that are of of interest in that classificatory scheme are whether or not they had the wheel uh whether they had writing and particularly in the later phase whether they had historical writing which obviously you know hegel deals with his with in his essay uh on world history so that is interesting to me which is uh within the other is a further other ring kind of a process and the savage seems to be one element on the spectrum of different other people the third point i just want to make very briefly is that you know there's a canadian theorist called john beasley murray who talks about the fact that a kind of a you know some of what you describe are the top philosophers of the time but there is a classification of writing which is what uh foot soldiers of the conquest carried with them and they also had this sort of and perhaps more crude depictions of the other and the point of these writings was to constantly affirm to those who were engaged in brutalizing the other that the other needed to be brutalized that they were not it was not possible for them uh beyond the point to be persuaded to accept christ and civilization and so that they should be you know killed but as we know about latin america particularly not so much america large-scale mixing of the races happened and over a few hundred years obviously most of latin america became mixed race of some sort or another particularly if you look at mestizo populations within mexico and in central america so how do you sort of account for this massive difference and the production of it in these kinds of texts and the real life encounters which on the one hand had that kind of brutal violence and genocidal violence but also resulted in intermingling and so on and on the question of intermingling i'll just make a last point which is that um you know if you think of some of the attributes of the savage they are not entirely distinct from the attributes to you know given to the poor within europe and in particular if you think in terms of the lacks which are being described here and poor and its cognate words in a range of medieval uh usages across europe uh also talks about dispossession they don't have this they don't have that and so on so there is already a template of otherness within europe which is then exaggerated and projected outside of europe and the lack element of that obviously is extremely interesting and important there now the possibilities for there to be anything like a political association across these different racial and continental divisions is what peter linebaugh perhaps talks about in the multi-headed hydra where he looks at exactly these different classifications of people and in fact he refers explicitly to how the uh sort of amerindian experiences uh for example people who might have worked on slave ships with irish sailors or pirates or black people from africa there is a possibility of having a different kind of political association which is not covered by hobbes and it is not covered by any of the other political utopian or anti-utopians who are talking about what next sort of scenario and it seems to me that the uh insistence on culture and civilization as that which divides europe from the savage in some ways papers over that other possibility of the poor of europe having some degree of solidarity with that of the colonized population so i'll just leave for you to think about and talk to us about that no that's great thanks so much and um i'll just try to be brief uh to what are questions that require anything but brevity to answer properly so first with the the last point um the question of the poor or indeed i think even of the of the peasantry if i'm not mistaken uh emerges explicitly in those theological debates in in salamanca that vitoria is involved in because partly what's being discussed is the whole question of of uh natural slavery as a model through which to justify the potential enslavement of indigenous peoples in the americas which interestingly is something that is being pushed by some of the conquistadors and which in fact at a certain point the spanish state not out of benevolence but just doesn't find to be particularly um attractive because they actually want to produce populations from which they can draw tribute that case so in the discussion there's a sense of well you know since our you know part of the argument against natural slavery is to say well we don't treat our peasants aristotle as aristotelian natural slaves we just treat them as inferior or worthy of command etc but not as anthropologically lacking in the quite extreme sense that natural slavery involves which according to vitali is not compatible with a kind of christian sort of anthropology and there it's interesting that you do have that in in the move from the idea of natural slavery to um to uh the position that vitoria brings forward which is you know shouldn't be exactly represented as enlightened because it's a shift within aristotle from the natural slave to the child so basically then the indigenous population is fully human but only potentially so this justifies command but doesn't and justifies even indenture but doesn't justify slavery at infinity because you know they are kind of ultimately human but i think those short circuits are also short circuits that fascinatingly follow in a you know in a more kind of popular cultural sense all the way into the 19th century so if you read something like vator benjamin's arcades project uh the narratives of uh parisian class conflict are full of language of savages of and and then mappings onto you know these very stereotypical imaginaries of the apaches and the cu and sonos so that ends up being also a language through which european class and social conflicts get mapped in in curious ways of course ways that totally occlude uh uh almost invariably the kind of solidarities identified by the likes of rediker and linebacker that you were um talking about one of the things that the talking about the the philosophical history of the figure of the savage also occludes and and and partly because i was dealing mainly with texts by landucci and pagdan rather than others uh there's a brilliant text by an italian historian also from the 70s uh also a marxist like london she was back then giuliano yahtzee who writes his whole text about the role that biblical narratives had in justifying title to lands in the americas and and one of the things that he shows is that something which is very difficult to make any sense out of which is basically the creation of all of these fantastic genealogies whereby you know the population of peru or you know related to norwegians you know all of these bizarre narratives which seem to be just the the product of of some uh uh you know kind of surrealist principle within you know european colonialism or just a result of really technical legal debates which required the spanish claim to be countered by others including including the british or the dutch or the swedes or whatever by different languages of legitimacy which involved title which therefore involved using the languages of biblical narratives of the flood all of these questions you know was there a new adam did did christ somehow uh uh christ somehow um preach the gospel in the americas before the arrival of the colonists because then these are heathens uh or perhaps they're also jews there's all tons of writings about the potentially jewish character of the amerindian population all of this makes no sense unless you actually see the colonial relation as one that's also based on these forms of legal justification that also means that things that initially seem to be progressive can be anything but so for instance the the the some of the more uh uh you know brutally instrumental uh of the of the conquistadors were the ones who were arguing against the spanish crown that the societies of the so-called savages were fully political societies and not some kind of lower barbarism because they were claiming that montezuma had given them title and that he could only give them title legally if he had title to give which means that he had to be a sovereign which means that they had to be a properly constituted political society so this is also something that comes along with these narratives about about uh humanity and so on that's one of the ironies i think we we um we take it for granted and understandably so that right that the recognition of humanity uh is uh uh um a necessary condition you know for form for you know emancipated if not egalitarian or you know tolerable relations it it might be necessary but certainly not sufficient sometimes it serves you know the other a quite contrary purpose as well in this case especially through this aristotelian language of potentiality so the somebody who's somebody who's fully human but only potentially so justifies all sorts of extremely protracted uh forms of uh uh subjugation so victoria for instance calculated that you know you needed something like you know after having argued against natural slavery you needed something like 600 years for full habituation to political society so we're still in that um period um and uh yes i think those i mean some of the main um uh points that i uh that i wanted to raise i mean about the iconography that also is interesting because you could argue that the depth the depth of certain models which functioned as filters or screens through which to experience this reality including the visual vocabulary of classical uh uh uh painting and and sculpture or christian notions and astralian notions of anthropology actually made over in a sense over familiarization counter and kind of stop the the the figure of the of the monster and actually in some sense again make for the uncanny fact that the that the the more the more brutal the more ontological forms of difference actually came later so it's actually after the likes of montagna or indeed even hobbes etc that uh thinkers in the you know in the 17th century into the 18th started proposing again for these ideological reasons the whole theory of polygenesis that basically contrary to what all christian thinkers had to think which was that there was only one source and that was adam that actually there were different sources and races were different species that's a much later conception which is kind of ironic because we tend to think of the monster to equal as a kind of linear tail i guess thank you very much to both of you for that discussion um we now have about 25 minutes for questions so i would like to open it up to the floor if you just put your hand up a second [Music] take down five to six thank you an industry right if you for anyone who has questions uh please just put your hand up um really obviously hi um hello so in terms of like depicting the savage as a comparative notion of the european self does that still have any relevance in the kind of like modern discourse of you know third world populations or just any non-european populations uh good evening alberto thank you very much for incredibly granular and um a very sophisticated analysis sorry can i just ask you to hold the microphone really close so we can hear thank you i just wanted to say thank you to alberto for giving us a very granular and very sophisticated analysis i just want to apologize for the the exit of so many people that would never happen at my university my question is actually from the point of view of australian legal history where a lot of analysis has been done on lockheed notions of agriculture and enclosure but no one as yet has made this explicit link that you delineate between the difference of hierarchies that hobbs posits and that that locke does and i just wanted to ask you have you looked very closely at some of the early images of indigenous australians that came to europe because in that i think is another chapter of a book for you which may also bring the development studies people at soas up to date with the very cogent and incredibly sophisticated state apparatus that dispossesses indigenous people now yes you mentioned disagreements among the colonizers about enslaving the indigenous people disagreements about whether it is morally right disagreements about whether it is economically sensible or beneficial to the colonizers and so on but in my understanding in addition to those arguments there was the problem that in general the indigenous people refused to be enslaved so i wonder how was that refracted through different versions of the savage thank you did we have one more from you yeah yeah you seem to have your hand on that um i was wondering if you engaged much with like afro-pessimism because they've also done like a kind of genealogy of looking how both the savage is constructed and the race and like like you know a modern ontological current world that they kind of seems like predominant on the idea that there is an absence that could never be overcome through like the way in which reality is structured or not you basically showed two types of negations or negative narratives one is uh idealistic um so savage free of money etc where and we don't need to bring shortcomings of our civilization and the other um narrative where this and that and rightfulness and peace is absence absent and so on uh so which which is actually legitimize colony colonialization chronologically how did they live together or one was dominant at one period time and then was changed by another and what happened the negative and the more no no i mean two two negative two negative narrations uh one is more positive idealistic that uh well you showed the quotations there yeah so and another it was like more negative that there is no rightfulness there is no peace there is no that and this yeah so and what happened to savage so to do these two accounts when search was placed into historical and materialistic domain i'm context i'm still a little having a little trouble identifying what you see as the two accounts because you're saying they're both negative but one is positive i don't know both negations yeah that there is no this and that there is no money there is no shortcomings of our civilization yeah the other one is no peace no like law okay no this and that and this why okay yeah and what happens to them when they enter into a more hi um i would just like to know because the what you've presented is a very um is a version of uh the savage coming from a euro-centric standpoint is there any narrative in how the colonized saw the european so to speak did the colonize see them as savages as well and if so if is there any similarities or differences so if we could if we could perhaps answer this first round of questions and then we can go for another set after that okay i'll answer i won't answer them necessarily in order but just see what how it works i'll answer the the last one uh first because it's easier to keep in mind um so there are um sorry uh there there are of course all sorts of different uh accounts that one can find that try either to to reconstruct the the encounter from the other side of course always via records you know somewhat like um you know problems of of subaltern studies history my you know reading reading in the gaps etc but not entirely because of course in the case of uh especially as far as my understanding goes especially in the case of the uh conquest and subjugation of the inca empire there was very um quickly in fact this goes back also to sabir's point about the the the mixing partly because it was recognized as a hierarchical society with a priesthood an aristocracy a form of government etc which uh both in the case actually of the inca and the the and the aztec there was a co-optation of the elite class into spanish rule also for reasons of of of quantity of personnel in short to the point that you know uh some aztec cities were were governed a hundred years after conquest by you know a non-spanish you know of course in a in a subsidiary vassalage kind of situation so there were quite early on uh the name suddenly you know at president escape me but there were writers who had been children of uh inca like you know uh a an inch aristocratic woman and a spanish conquistador for instance who had direct linguistic and family and memory knowledge of what this meant for them they were often of course or not often they were all christian converts and had to be in order to to subsist in in the situation but they could tell that story there's a really great book i think a fascinating book by a french historian called nathan vachtel um who's translating into english the name now escapes me which is all about the experience of defeat including the the way in which that then threads itself into festivals and and and and holidays in uh in peru and in mexico to this day where the experience you know where even though the population is a mixed population it still celebrates or experiences that moment from from the other side the other text that i i found recently is there's a there's a really uh uh interesting uh huge interview um called i think the falling sky which is with a a giant memoir uh done by an anthropologist called bruce albert with a shaman from the uh um shaman i think uh who um you know sorry there you go falling sky which has a whole has a couple of chapters within the whole uh account that directly talk about the the experience and the imagination and also the cosmological insertion of the white man within their you know their own cosmology so it's it's not you know i i think there are different accounts and one can so it's not it's not the situation where it's just some complete you know epistemological black hole where you know we only have access to things that you know a eurocentric position had of course there are mediations i mean you know this is narrated to and published through an anthropologist and it's not a direct account whatever that might be but still i think that that that can be found um in terms of well in terms of these accounts that i talked about i mean i think i think it is i mean uh sabir when he sent me some questions my email was also asking about you know to what extent does this remain for instance not just within anthropological or developmental account but within marxism itself and i think that's a very complicated uh question i mean clastro who i was citing at the end who was a virulent anti-marxist or at least was very anti the marxist anthropologists of his time we could argue about whether he was he was that uh apt in his criticisms of marx himself but nevertheless saw the the the figure the developmental translation of the of the savage as privation as a condition of possibility for uh any uh marxist historical materialism i mean he says i didn't the quote i had uh towards the end he says this is why marxism is a theory um i didn't get to it but you know this is why marxism is a theory of history founded on the tendency of the development of productive forces must give itself as a starting point a sort of degree zero of productive forces then he criticizes that by saying actually the notion that uh so-called savages had economies of scarcity is a nonsense and martial assailants has proved otherwise etc etc but it's interesting in that form degree zero that there is there is the sense of the transcoding uh of uh of a lack um in that uh regard though from the other side there's a quite interesting debate that uh claude libby strauss has against maxime robinson in structuralist anthropology where robinson criticizes him for what he perceives as his anti-marxism and libya straw says actually you haven't read marx properly because marx actually thought that these dynamics of the contradiction productive forces only happen in in class societies with states and he quite explicitly and in some of the ethnological notebooks as well doesn't think that they necessarily pertain to so-called primitive societies which then basically leads levy strauss saying well there are you know different kinds of histories and not all of them take the form that a historical materialism of uh uh you know complex modes of production uh requires um so to to disagreements amongst uh colonizers refusal of enlightenment yeah i mean that's um that of course get i g i guess gets uh um i i ideologically and and and polemically translated into the whole uh uh trope of the not just the trope of the refusal of work but then more disturbingly because one should also give a sense of the other peculiar contradictions here is that figures like las casas who try to defend the indigenous populations to an extent even still treating them as children or whatever against the more virulent subjugation by the conquistadors present them as too weak to work so present them in this kind of condescending form uh by saying well they can't be enslaved because they're not constitutionally able to work in industrial work they're not made for it at some you know you know because they're too noble or whatever the story is because they're like children or you know etc leading las casas to say maybe we should import black slaves you know so it's not you know so that that those and and that's where you know going to the kind of afro-pessimism question in a sense like there's all sorts of very complex issues as to the relationship between the imaginary of the savage and other imaginaries of alterity and race not least of course against black populations firstly as being elsewhere and then of course qua slaves in the same territory and that's i think a really um tradition now one of the things that that leads in some of these discourses is saying oh well there's a total this analogy so you just have completely incomparable and detached forms of racialization so you have anti-blackness as this thing which is completely of its own kind and then you have uh you know anti-indigenous and and i i'm not but that's a very long story i don't find that that position uh um persuasive though it is definitely the case that there are very there are quite distinct histories and one of the things that all the historians note is that uh european philosophers were very you know at different points not all of them but exhibited an interest anthropological and philosophical in indigenous population of the americans that they never had for uh african uh civilizations about which they knew a lot more in many in through many accounts and had known for longer so that demands a different uh um development and you know that i i haven't looked at those um images but it's definitely something i'd be uh very um keen to uh follow up on i mean it's i think i think the point about um i think one of the issues about also the lockheed account and and this also goes back to the point about you know what what what material were these uh um were actual colonists working with so i think at different points it's it's it's tricky to trace um which are the operative ideological which are the upper texts and also which are the operative ideological frameworks so yes lockingism generally has massive influence but then you know who is operationalizing you know is it a particular lawyer or a jurist or somebody who's you know it's not i think there's there's a a risk that one can that one can enter into including what i've i've been talking about to just project in a quite a historical way that somehow there's this kind of uh lock-in uh or you know at other points montesquieu and or the adam smithian uh effect on colonialism whilst i think then it becomes trickier and very interesting to follow well which texts in which and and through whom because obviously a lot of the people engaging in the colon and the activity of colonizing and empire are you know are not you know trying to be faithful to these these philosophers and actually operating with all sorts of weird mediations that's why some of these texts for instance this giuliano yahtzee text is very interesting to show how some of the weirdest uh most cracked and philosophically incomprehensible theories providing legitimate title including you know bizarre speculations about atlantis or whatnot find their way into some very significant colonial situations in ways that you know the the the a lot of the more philosophical treatments are just for uh are just for an internal european consumption i mean that's the other element a lot of the a lot of the figure of the savage including the case of montana is a total internal trope it's a it's a figure of inter it's a pseudo-mirror uh or pseudo-inversion that's used for uh an argument among men of letters to criticize the limits of their own civilization sometimes as a trope like in the persian the other is a trope to criticize certain forms of christianity or catholicism or protestantism that you couldn't criticize otherwise so i think we have to be quite you know nuanced in seeing how and and and through what actual operations these things are really uh working so i think that's as i think there was one question the very first question about modern discourses ah yes yes so that's uh i mean i guess that partly links to this what i was trying to probably trying to suggest is a contrary to some of the uh historical arguments that say well you have this kind of cesura so you move from the formalistic negation to then a fine-grained positive account of ethnology or comparative anthropology etc still seems to me that including in the degree zero the cluster talks about an an element of that negation is present now i i think you know to the extent that the sedimentations of these scottish enlightenment uh ideologies go very deep and you know there are still you know think tanks called you know the adam smith institute or whatever that are happy to promulgate them then you know in some sense it goes now the interesting thing would be to think well what are the what are the ways in which this this plays out and you know one of the i mean one of the more obvious ones i guess i mean from a total uh amateur outsider standpoint about issues of development and whatnot but uh you know one of them which seems very obvious is the the particular relationship that uh questions of property and land title have two imaginaries of uh social uh complexity um you know individual emancipation and so on from schemes to give title to people in favelas to micro credit to what have you there is a very powerful notion that you cannot have uh certain forms of subjectivity social relation pacification of behavior unless you first have certain forms of proper you know certain certain property forms you know which can get quite specific you know whether it's the ability of a bank account or what is the ability to own property or to be able to rent or whatever and i think those you know those mechanisms in some way do seem to bear some not not insignificant formal analogies to to not not the so much the hobs and law concerns but what comes after um these uh discourses that make beginning with montesquieu and then through the scottish enlightenment that make the link between ways of living understood through the link between subsistence and ownership and then from there build the question of of laws and and and politics and and human engagement and so that that seems to me still i mean happy to be contradicted but it seems to be still to be quite a powerful way of thinking it doesn't mean that it's mapping those ideologies or philosophies from late 18th century into the present but i think it's it's it's a kind of well lacking very much especially for latin american writers like escobar or others who also use the term lack in terms of what development is supposed to fail and obviously these days you have essays floating around saying we did not colonize africa for long enough we left too soon or failed state discourses or even the whole idea that democracy is a habit yeah so yeah but also because i haven't had the having built the habit yeah the 600 years did not elapse before we got decolonized out of africa and stuff like that and we've been there for longer they would have been more like us and the world would be a better place so this is such an interesting discussion however i do want to give um the audience the chance to ask a few more questions before we finish so we can take we have time for a couple more if you want to put your hand up there's one there ah and then one over there i would like to know if you have followed in brazil the development of the image of the good savage that developed in the 19th century and was used it was really important for brazilian nationalism among especially in literature and especially in literature and the brazil in the band after brazil independence and it was used as a way to construct they might the image of the reconstruct the image of the savage as a good savage of dossier and to pacify them at the 19th and 20th century and another question that i would like to ask if this image of the savage that you constructed how does it relate to the older images of barbarians and before the colonization of the americans they're the americas yeah for the talk um my question is a little bit about and i missed some of the earlier questions i hope i'm not repeating anything um what the political responses should be of people who are defined as savages or as barbarians if you're we're assuming that we don't want to assimilate into or integrate into the structures that oppress and degrade them or us and the main reason why this question is coming to me is from a book i read over the summer called the colonial judaism which very much looks at the sort of continuum between civilization and barbarianism and basically talks about how one of the strategies of jewish thinkers like marx or luxembourg and the frankfurt school was a negative counter narrative of barbarism way by you say it's the people who are coming over here and committing genocide and ecocide who are the actual barbarians and then there's um so the author then looks at um changes in post-holocaust jewish for whereby there became a positive reappropriation of barbarism and people who said i think it's isaac deutsche who said i'm i'm an incurable barbarian and they sort of positively reappropriate what it means to be a barbarian or what it means to be a savage so i'm wondering how you fall along those sort of lines of a negative counter narrative or a positive reappropriation of of these discourses sorry we have time for one more question if anyone has one more no and we have these two very important ones um so the um starting with the the last one again i mean i think the um any you know any pejorative i mean it's a sort of issue of the politics of rhetoric in one sense that is somewhat general you know any pejorative description given particular conditions can uh be flipped in some sense or appropriated or but you know those conditions are not always present it might always not always be why so yes you do have the the we barbarians or you know even one could even you know like like some of the brazilian avant-garde celebrate uh you know anthropology or or cannibalism is a kind of you know it is that sort of revivifying primitivist uh uh uh reference or indeed one can um uh one can engage in saying yes the the civilized of the real barbarians which i think is possibly a more a more common one because it functions uh in the mode of identifying a kind of hypocrisy this is already present in in montana uh who um um you know who talks already in the 1500s in a weird essay called of coaches which is literally about coaches but then starts denouncing uh colonialism in the most extreme senses of saying you know he talks about the bar he talks about the millions passed by the sword i mean it's just a claim to genocide made you know not not so long after the beginning of the of the conquest so that that's uh um possible now far be it for me to answer anything which involves shoulds especially for other people uh but uh i do think it's i i do think it's in i think it is interesting to see um the yeah i mean to to to see given the whole weight of this um of these apparatuses of you know negating people's political existence uh uh placing them at that degree zero and so on and so forth what exactly are forms of collective political subjectivity that uh that that various forms of indigenous movements have and you know and they obviously vary a lot and and some might you know some might involve forms of identification that are across ethnic or group differences and some some might be very much you know claims of sovereignty based by a very particular group in a very particular situations you can see yeah i mean you you you know i think you can only answer those issues as you know there are issues of strategy and and and rhetoric and reflection that people engage in on a quotidian basis uh um uh politically that i think also differ very much in terms of what is the um what is the apparatus of the state that they're responding to i mean it is interesting in this i mean i think that there was that question about the you know the afro-pessimism thing before i mean one of the interesting things that i think makes it superficially seem that these are very different discourses is that of course the the the the nature i mean especially north american especially in the united states uh the the nature of the history of slavery is such that it doesn't necessarily involve uh or hasn't for a long time since the 1930s mainly involved claims for territorial sovereignty and it seems to have it seems to make claims about about black identity and black power that are not uh um you know that are not fine-grained or granular or group specific in the same way that one might encounter in uh in indigenous people that still differentiate them very themselves very much from other indigenous people in the same broad speaking kind of states so but i think it's a very you know it is a very interesting point i mean regarding the you know the regarding the question of i mean i i i know very distantly about the history of these uh uh issues in in brazil i guess two two things come yet i mean one one thing that comes to mind which i guess is an even more uh um disturb you know disturbing history is a particular way in which um you know at least in the united states case um the whole you know the whole settler colonial imaginary is both uh is both genocidal and appropriative because it it it actually then tries to infuse the the imaginary and the subjectivity of the settler with aspects of what they have romanticized as the as the so-called savage or the indian or etc and that's really you know so that that whole thing that happens for instance you can find in this you know grotesque uh 19th century u.s uh paintings where you see the you know the heroic figures of the you know the the savage as the heroic uh figure which is in no way a critique of the very process that that that led you know to to their dispossession and and murder and so on so i think that's also very very peculiar the way that some the the savage in particular actually because this is something which is quite specific which of course doesn't have the same role in terms of the slave or the coulee or what you know tons of other figures of subjection there's something about and like you know about the history of the of the savages and ideological entities somehow allows for this very sinister paradoxical operation which is to to to symbolize as well as to you know or to give some kind of exalted role whilst in no way criticizing continued subjugation and dispossession i mean i don't i don't exactly know how to you know analyze or or get to that but i do think it's a it's a really striking phenomenon that might say something about the difference between that and figures of you know again also older figures like the the barbarian or what happened okay just briefly say you can look at british paintings from the same time and you'll probably see very similar representations like the colonies bearing uh britannia taking gifts from the colonies there's a big painting and you've got savages black people uh helping britannia as she takes the fruit and the gold and the wheat coming from around the world i mean that's that just reminds me when i was when i was working in that book on fanaticism this only came to mind now but it was it's really striking to find in these letters written by uh um by soldiers and administrators on the so-called you know kind of colonial uh frontier you know places that would not be i guess like waziristan and so on this uh you know their whole figure of the fnatic being also this figure you know he's both the enemy to be vanquished but he's also weirdly the repository of all of these bizarre you know eroticized marshall imagine you know they're you know they're heroic you know we have to kill them all but you know they're great fighters blah blah blah so there's also that image you know in this other context which is quite uh uh which is quite potent and somehow serves also to legitimize the the the very activity of of warring and indeed of extermination as a kind of classical um conflict between honorable soldiers rather than you know even if to the death rather than a an administrative militarized land grab so i think that that might be you know one year kind of analogy do you have any closing comments except for thank you for sticking it out yes um so i think we've got to the end now just um just leaves me to thank alberto um hugely for a really interesting talk and thank you severe as far as well

When lambs zoom about I can see one that’s not right. So catch & treat
[Music] you were sound this morning but you're lame now oh you're very lame that might not be scald [Music] or it could be scald i'll have to catch you and find out oh god even though it's lame it's faster than me yeah little rascal no don't go all the way over there ah i need you to go down the laneway mix yourself in my i know anka um oh gotcha okay now i'm gonna treat you for scald radio there you can see that's what scald looks like it's kind of pink and looking and it smells this is what a relatively normal foot looks like [Music] so that's another normal foot and that's another very normal foot so i use the rag to clean out all the muck around that then i spray with this spray i can't do this with the one hand oh i know what i could do okay so i've cleaned out and you can see that's very nasty looking sprayed it like that and now i wait for it to dry now i do all four just so that it doesn't get transferred and now i have to wait for this to dry because if it dries in there it means it will uh last longer the medication will last longer and not wearing gloves so this little ram lamb also is the area that is castration is about to come off so i'll spray that this is this stuff it's a kind of got an antibiotic in it alamycin long-acting alomicin and contact spray on that and you can see how the poor lamb was running around on three legs and it was acting like this hind leg was broken when it was just scald and this morning this lamb was fine there was no evidence of that it was completely sound and this is the chap and you kind of get them relaxed if you sit them on their butt properly they're kind of pretty relaxed now all the yeoz have left here and gone back into the orchard while i was catching and then treating this little fella so i'm gonna bring him into the orchard to release his panic and not know where his mother is you can see there's loads of yes all the o's are in here so his mother's in here somewhere now doing what i did is quite painful so he'll probably run off on three legs well not quite oh you can see he's holding it up he's going ah that stings that stings which is actually good because it'll dry off the spray will dry off even more if he doesn't place weight on it and by tomorrow he should be fine and sound he's acting like he has a broken leg so it's just the small things that can really really hurt and luckily scald is easily easy to cure and that little fellow will feel better by tomorrow morning

MUST-SEE LIVE: With Sh. Aqil Ingram - Fasting for Black Folk Dissected
this is a warning against simply spreading information without verifying it and this is a principle we see in the Quran and in the Sunnah the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and how easy has it become in the times that we're living in today for information to spread without it being verified how many times people will make tweets posts we'll spread things on WhatsApp people will fabricate videos we'll cut videos out and make a whole story about a person and it will be spread around and people will believe it I mean there's so many times I've personally seen whereas a a one minute clip or a two-minute clip will be spread around and you will be convinced this person is what they're saying but when you actually search and actually do your homework and find out what the real story is and you see the full video you'll find that the whole thing is fabricated they might have clips from a different place from different parts and put it together and you know they just edited the whole thing and the person was actually saying something that is correct but because the people wanted to shame them or whatever it might be and fabricate and make a lie about them they completely fabricate a video about them and everybody's spreading it people don't even verify they get a video message on their phone they watch it they spread it to a group they're in 100 people the other one's present again no verification nothing that's not the way the Muslim is supposed to be right especially when it comes to talking about people now right and it's dealing with people's honor and people's status and people's any reputation you can't simply just oh spread the rumor and keep it going that's that's what Society pushes right we live in this tabloid Society where it's all about exposing people and you know did you hear what happened to so-and-so did you hear what happened to this individual this athlete this celebrity this politician this person in the community and people are just spreading it without no verification right that happens online that happens in person somebody comes to you and they they tell you something in confidence in private between you and them and then the person goes to another person and says yeah actually have something to tell you but it's a PR it's a secret thing keep it between us you've already told the person yeah I mean you've already how do you know this person is going to hold on to it you couldn't even hold on to yourself you couldn't even keep the secret from the person telling he told you keep it between us and you hear telling them can you tell them you know let it stay between us and you're telling him as well the whole Community knows that it's it's it's it's a done deal everybody knows about that it's it's out it's out of the bag now right no there's that sense of being diligent is not there anymore right so everything you hear you want to pass it on and there's some people Allah some people are just like that they just want they just want to be they want to be known to be the person that is the the reporting right Spreading the News there are people on social media who are actually famous for that right they are known to be oh they're the breaking news person or if I want breaking news I'm going on Twitter to find so-and-so because they're always bringing hot new takes every single time have they verified it is it true is it not Allah and many times it might be that the reality of what they're saying is the opposite the reality of the situation is the complete opposite of what they're spreading and you guys know what I'm talking about because it's a reality that we're living in and you had this the prophet sallam said it is we need to inspire our young children that's coming out of domestics and they're more inspired by the hip-hop artists and the basketball players and the gangster movies people that's the reality our youth are inspired not by us but by somebody else because our dawah is weaker as well if that's not the case F1 go look in the jail and see the condition of the Muslim these Negroes aren't asking for no Nation they're trying to crawl back on the plantation A revolution is bloody Revolution is hostile Revolution knows no compromise Revolution overturns and destroys everything that gets in its way and you sitting around here like are not on the wall saying I'm gonna love these folks no matter how much they hate me no you need a revolution Mr moderator our distinguished guests brothers and sisters our friends and and our enemies thank you [Applause] smell that was a lie to us in the name of Allah and May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon his last and final Messenger as to what follows family friends foes haters and hate that's welcome back to the features I greet you all in peace and love with no hatred in my heart assalamu alaikum May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon all of you I want to give alaikum salaam to the 5-2 initiative to Love Never Ends hayakam Allah we have a very esteemed and special guest tonight with our Sheikh uh Akil Ingram Sheikh Akil he has studied in the University of Medina and we are talking tonight inshallah about fasting specifically for black folks but a lot of the stuff that we are saying is actually intersectional with most converts the things that we're going to be covering inshallah you know Allah himself he locks down the shayateen and Ramadan and this is to prevent the influence of unseen forces during this month therefore the evil that you fall into in Ramadan is from yourself so why is this important it is important because the ultimate tool of self-actualization and spiritual reconstruction is actually the month of Ramadan and we as black people we have very specific and pointed issues with our community that we need to deal with during Ramadan after Ramadan you should be a completely different person you shouldn't be the same person you went in to Ramadan we have all these stresses and things that are obstacles with us getting the full benefits so inshallah we're going to talk to the and inshallah we're going to deal with some of these issues how we doing what is going on Shake observe you good to be here I mean I mean and you too I mean I mean how is your Ramadan so far they went by pretty fast um pretty smooth till the end of the day so starting to feel it a little bit but uh you know we got about an hour so to tough it out so there's no shortage of topics for this one topic I I believe right in terms of the convert experience particularly the black convert experience during Ramadan right so many converts they live for example with their non-muslim families who may not accommodate their food choices and things of this nature and this by itself should be a major motivation for us to work together and to treat each other as family but in the black community as you know we are incredibly individualistic like outrageously individualistic so how are some ways that we can tackle this but that's not another question man may love may love reward you um we can talk about this as we go but I I definitely um would have to put in the Forefront of the discussion that in our fasting it's it's not something that is about discipline per se right um I don't know what you what you may have going on up there in Canada um but this is something that I hear quite often from uh newer Muslims or for from non-muslims that are considering Islam or they want to join in the fasting with us you know we appreciate your discipline right we I want to be disciplined I want to start doing this um you know that that's not that's not really it and it's not about focusing on um not eating and not drinking either so so I I think that the first step has to be putting the fast into context and to understand that this is a spiritual measure thank you with spirituality right so and we're looking to remove from ourselves those things that are within us that we need to live in function removing food removing removing drink emptying our vessel of desires so that we are fully in a space to receive what our Lord has for us and we're fully inside of a space to go introspective into our own selves so you know this is a matter of of the intention right this is a matter of of what we're doing and why we're doing it so I think it has to start there um with the individual understanding why we're looking too fast as you were just mentioning it's a journey of self-improvement and um and along with that after we get over that hump then we do have to take advantage of of the camaraderie that may exist amongst like-minded folk and if it doesn't exist then we need to start creating some of that and for ourselves in the spaces that we are and um and it's something that may take some that may take some sacrifice and I'll um uh I I'll give you an idea of what I what I'm talking about so I can recall um as a as a newer Muslim um when my in my teenage years I was an early teen when I became Muslim and uh to your point um I didn't have access to the Masjid I didn't know where Masjid what was that um I only knew one or two Muslims that I wasn't able to interact with on a regular basis and I was lacking in a lot of information at that time in fact it was so off brand for me at the time and being disconnected when I was fasting in the beginning I was fasting until deep into it because I thought you had to fast until the entire sky was black right so you know I'm two three hours after mug rib you know still trying to do this fast it's being disconnected but um uh I eventually did make an effort it required some sacrifice and I I did uh connect with some Muslims and um you know from from there those Muslims brought me to other Muslims that I began to network with and it made the Ramadan experience a much more richer experience than than I ever could have imagined that that it would have been excellent you know and I I'm so glad that you mentioned the spirituality part because there's a lot of spiritual warfare that is going on right now as we speak within the black community particularly right and this has been going on for decades and it's now peaking up as we see this type of polarization between the Left Right Paradigm and black people are either pulled to this lgbtq stuff or this this alt rights like this uh you could say like almost like this alt-right stuff and we are being used as Pawns in in uh the media to promote one or the other but particularly this lgbtq we see a lot of zesty dudes you know in in uh media you know these these and they're pushing them uh like uh the sky Nas X whatever little Nas X or whatever his name is you know I mean like these weirdos right and what we find in the black Muslim Community nowadays that we didn't really see back in the past is the participation of Muslims openly participating in this um nonsense right not realizing that this is a part of spiritual warfare right I've I've seen recently a sister on Facebook where she is she's a muslim okay and she is dancing uh uh like as a like a sorry to say as a stripper in a strip club and she put this on Facebook to cash the size other Muslims saying that y'all are hypocrites at least I'm open about what I'm doing right so can you uh expand upon the the spiritual warfare that Muslims have to learn to uh basically uh fight against during this Ramadan yeah so the the start input there is just understanding um Who We Are right and and yes you know we do happen to be people um of of Dr Hugh people of African descent uh but all of us before we are whatever Hues um that our complexion may be we're Souls we're Souls first and of course uh the purpose of our souls inside of these vessels is what our Lord estate will now be created this species of the Gin nor Humanity except for the express intent of of My Worship alone so we we have to understand that we are here to build a relationship with our Lord to to worship our Lord first before before anything else and in that vein we then have to understand that we need to enter into a space where we are controlling our own narrative um and and because we're not controlling our own narrative this makes us subject to the social engineering of others and uh you know we just begin to just you know get in alignment with whatever happens to be trending at the time we don't even question is this an original thought is this my thoughts or am I being programmed with something else and just I'm not I'm believing it's me right so you know um you know definitely definitely um we should be we should be looking to uh what are the things that we are in need of in order to get to where we are looking to go and uh as opposed to just what's out there because maybe some of the things we need they don't exist yet or they're not they're not out there we have to we have to create that and uh you know even with that that has to start again with the inner our Lord has the ability to do all things and the more we build our relationship with him um the more that he will cause this world to submit to us right because we're just um Spiritual Beings that happen to be having a having a physical experience we have to begin to understand things from that perspective hmm hey now I just want to segue that into this other thing because you did mention about the social engineering and one of the things that I was I was uh you know wanted to mention absolutely wanted to mention because you mentioned the social engineering is that black folks are the number one consumers of entertainment and television more than any other people what are any other people Folk and we are actually by doing this vesting in our own indoctrination so when we are in this Ramadan it's not just about fasting from food per se but it is from fasting from all of those things that rot our souls from the inside like social media like uh entertainment like uh the like the bad speech that we tend to have because we're very very individualistic people and we tend to speak from our gut instead of from our minds you know we speak first and think later right so even the prophet saws he said you know whoever does not give up false statements and evil deeds and speaking of bad words to others and the law is not in need of his leaving off his food and drink meaning fasting all right so what are some of the things that you see that we as black folks should be fasting from other than food well to to you to your point as we as we enter into that point um I I think we have to realize the reality of things so if there are platforms that are available for us to use for free and we're not being charged to utilize these platforms whenever that happens that means you're the product thank you yes right and um you know we have to understand that we're on these platforms and you know it's it's entertaining it's engaging uh other others amongst us maybe utilize utilizing them for for educational purposes or whatever whatever it may be but we have to understand from those that are um really creating and truly utilizing these platforms what they are and then how that is impacting us and um yeah when we're fasting I mean to your point yes we we leave off food and drink but what we're also um leaving off poor speech and poor actions um because you know as as we know uh in the verse that we're all familiar with yeah it fasting has been prescribed for you all just as it has been prescribed for those who have come before you all because the expectation of you is to become Pious to become God conscious so the issue is not leaving off food and drink the issue is increasing increasing your state of being conscious of Allah so the messenger of Allah as a as a regular State he will be upon a Law's remembrance right throughout his day in this night and that's the reason why for example when he would come out of the bathroom he will save a veronic all your forgiveness not because he did something that was bad or sinful because he was always in a state of Allah's remembrance and in that space when relieving himself he just found it Unbecoming he couldn't bring himself to do it in that space so for those brief moments that he wasn't in the state of Allah's remembrance he saw Allah forgiveness for that so then how much more you and I throughout our day and through our night and throughout our fast and throughout from a bond we should be striving to be upon Allah's remembrance subhanallah saying our supplications for the morning saying our supplication questions for the evening saying those different supplications that we can say throughout our day and our night in different situations and if we are truly uh inside of this type of a space and we are with the book of Allah and we are increasing uh in in our in our prayers and opportunities to give charity if we're doing all of this like this truly if we're striving to practice everything that we know of Islam during the month of Ramadan are you really going to have time to lie to gossip right to slander to tell Carrie are you really going to have a whole lot of time to talk about the game right you really don't have you're not going to have time for these things because you're going to be fully engaged and this is really what the fasting is about it's about increasing your faith it's about becoming the best version of yourself so we have to ask ourselves with the daily habits that we have that are negative habits are they assisting Us in becoming the best version of ourselves or not exactly whatever that is of our character whatever that is of our actions whatever that is of our speech then for this month we are looking to adjust those things or suppress those things and and do those things that are that are best and better because the nature the nature of our uh the nature of our nuffs right the nature of uh if you like our conscious uh our conscious is one that is naturally inclined to things that are not beneficial for it however if we force it into those things that are beneficial for it eventually you will break it and then it will desire those things that are good for it it will no longer desire those things that are not good for it or at least desire those things less but you got to get into the game right you got to put in the effort you got to try and uh you know for this month you get you got to get in gear so uh again and this is the meaning of the prophetic tradition that you made mention of earlier it's um it's not that whoever uh whoever doesn't leave off poor speech in in poor character that their fastest invalid but it does mean that the reward is decreased it does mean that you've lost the plot it does mean that we we we're missing the entire reason for Robert fasting in the first place right because it's not just about putting on food and drink oh I'm okay it's not about just becoming more disciplined oh I'm okay no then there's a much deeper thing going on and and that is uh purifying your heart uh looking at your the state of your Iman and looking to increase and Veteran 100 100 man I'm really appreciating uh this this talk because this right here I think I think uh black people really need to hear this these type of things right we have this situation in the black community where we are incredibly uh individualistic and argumentative and you know we we love conflict and we I understand that a lot of this can come from you know our experience especially as um you know descendants of slaves and whatnot however Ramadan it's in itself itself against self it's you against you right you cannot you don't have the the um the opportunity to blame it on the devil during Ramadan so it should be a massive mirror in front of yourself so that you can know where you're going short and you can Rectify that situation right it is the purest form of caging one's desires you know when you cutting off food cutting off food is not about starving yourself it's about the actual uh preventing yourself from doing the most basic of human desires for the sake of Allah if you can do this then you can do that if you can do this you can stop listening you can stop that sin right and then you can cage your tongue as well if you're able to do that but the way that we see it is that we only see it as a food thing right only as a food from from from sun up to sundown thing that's it whereas there's something else going on here right the self-awareness that that is supposed to be taking place so in terms of um uh uh black people and food options as well as you know many of us conference we don't really have you know that that type like conference that they're living in in like normal Muslim families or with normal some uh homes or whatnot they don't have that many food options and as well as for black people specifically many black communities are in food deserts and it takes approximately 20 days to build or to get rid of a habit if you're consistent on that and black folk have no shortage of bad habits that we can break right and we can and we have no shortage Bill how good habits we can build so those who fast right during Ramadan should they continue to to break their fast with these foods that are poisonous for us within the black community or should they use this opportunity to consume a healthier foods even if it's cost more and means eating less what what is your opinion on that well um you mentioned a lot um yeah there are three things there are three things so um what I would say firstly is uh as as peoples of of African descent um you know there's a saying of of looking at the letter of the law or the spirit of the law uh as peoples of African descent um in the west we now culturally have a tendency to to look at the the letter as opposed to the spirit to look at the the literal and and the physical right um as opposed to the the metaphysical right for for example and and I think that's why that's what brings us to the space okay food drink physical I'm not doing that right uh discipline okay that's that's something that is outwardly displayed okay I'm gonna get into that um and and I think that's something that that we need to uh that we need to break we of course there there's a place for the letter of the law but we shouldn't neglect the spirit of the law either and um in this vein I would submit I would humbly submit that for each one of us that we look into ourselves and identify three poor habits that we have three poor habits that are holding us back from being the better Muslim that we know that we can and we should be and for the month of Ramadan manage those three specific habits in particular and do that consistently for a month prove to yourself that you can be that better Muslim that you desire to be and if you're successful in doing this throughout the month of Ramadan then carry it with you uh onward and and forward and uh potentially uh one of those poor habits may be a poor diet maybe before diet 100 definitely in fasting um one learns the difference within yourself of Desiring food and legitimately and legitimately being hungry right sometimes we just desire to eat because we want to eat we're not actually hungry right we learn to make that distinction and then once we made that distinction between wanting to eat and actually being hungry okay why do I have a desire for these particular Foods right where is that stemming from and and if I'm if I'm hungry why am I hungry at this time how long has it been since I've eaten last and a lot of this uh actually comes from poor food choices thank you um because some of the foods and I'm not I'm not excluding myself this is not like a holier than thou type of thing like I'm in this with right with all of us uh the desires that we have for certain foods um a lot of times is it boils it's not even the food we want we want the sugar right exactly that that's in the food right um and and when we are um becoming hungry and we're becoming hungry sooner than we should be um a lot of that again has to do are we eating foods that will that will last us right or not so yeah I mean in in fasting you really have to begin to learn yourself it forces you to begin to learn your own body and you then have to be given the question what you put in your body and um not to get to go test or anything like that but you also will Begin by default as you should be begin to pay attention to what is coming out of your body of your body yes and what what is coming out of your body is also in dictators of the quality of what we put in our bodies and then those type of adjustments on that and that end as well to make sure that um you know what's coming out of our bodies is coming out in a healthy way as well yeah Allah he says in the Quran eat of the good foods that we have uh given you right so if you're saying this in the Quran this is how I think I'm I I this is my own this is brother be loud Bro Science bro Sharia stuff okay the way that I think is that okay if there is Good Foods right and he's forbidden he or he Allah said he's explicitly says he only forbidden uh pork and the name of the the dead food like that animals and and uh alcohol and these type of things right but he says that eat of the good the time you know the the the good food right so the way I'm thinking especially in our time if there is good food that Allah made then there has to be bad food there has to be right so we look at the way that we look at food is that okay we see a chocolate bar it's Halal it's hot I'll just eat it but what is the number one killer of Black Folk well I mean you tell me it's heart related and diabetes related diseases okay more than any other thing all those diseases that kill black folk like crazy is related to what food it's related to food my own parents right my mother she passed away or him a lot from a stroke and my father passed away uh uh heart attack okay I don't know we all know people in the black community that have passed away from stroke heart attack uh uh you know heart disease something or the other right we know people like this and this is because now cancer is is in increasing calls as well yeah and all of this is related directly to the the food that we choose because in Black communities in general that's what the food choices that you have there right you have those food choices now it's Ramadan right those same foods that you eat it's Halal I'm not saying it's Haram but does it become Haram after it starts giving you hypertension after it starts giving you obesity after it starts giving you diabetes this is how we have to think right and we have to and now with this this Ramadan we have to make better choices with those food because the food that you eat is directly related to your spirit spirituality otherwise why would it be Halal and Haram why would there be there has to be relation right so what do you think about that shake yeah I mean you know to your point speaking about the techie bat you know um the the meaning of of tayeb in our legislation it means tar here it means that which is pure so when our Lord is speaking to um these these foods like this that'll tell you that are that are Wholesome foods it means foods that are that are pure it means fused foods that are all right that that are rich right and then in this regard you remind me of um uh Allah and um he has a a section in his work where he he's speaking to this it's the Hadith that we all that we all know uh the the Hadith that speaks to um our our eating and that uh there's no vessel that we feel more that is worse than the stomach and that we should just be eating some morsels enough that we that our our spine is going to be upright uh but if we can't then a third for our food a third for our drinking and the third four are breath and in this commentary here he uh actually mentions um that which is pretty common and well known now that the majority of diseases that exist in the majority of ailments that we have are because of what we put inside of our stomachs yes and um on top of that us filling our stomachs also increases our our carnal desire and and in that it can make it more difficult for us to control ourselves right so um the opposite of that would be um minding what we're putting in our stomachs eating Foods um you know that are good and in fasting and such then this grants us control over our desires and it softens uh it it softens uh our hearts and and thus and so we we have to begin thinking about these things I mean when we're younger we can eat whatever we want and it's not impacting us and um even now at the age that uh it looks like you and I are right even at these ages there are things that we can get away with but um you know some of the effects are starting to show themselves I think part of the problem here to your point is that many of these ailments um you know diabetes and the long-term effects of high blood pressure and heart disease and things like that it's not seriously impacting a lot of us until we're in our our late 50s and in our 60s and things of that nature but the time to get control of it and get ahead of it is really when you're in your 30s and your 40s the choice that we're making now aren't the decisions that will be impacting us in our 50s 60s and 70s thank you and I think we have to begin to make that connection um just because we're not having a heart attack today does not mean the food that we're eating and the life choices that we have will not eventually lead to that heart attack you know 15 20 years down the line we we have to begin making that connection exactly exactly and the thing is we have this movement within the black community which is pushing body positivity can you imagine telling black folks it's okay to be fat or we have and our day and time or obese or overweight four-fifths eight percent and you're about body positivity and and on top of that as you mentioned before if you were getting these platforms for free that you were the product you get me black people are investing into their own indoctrination so this Ramadan not specifically this Farm but the Ramadan in general right should be used as a method to benefit from the what Allah is sending you to get out of those habits maybe because if you keep if we keep doing this thing where every Ramadan you know we go through Ramadan we go through the ritual of Ramadan fasting you know maybe making tarawee every single night trying to read the whole Quran and all this kind of stuff and then after Ramadan we're just back to the same or same old and what what is really the benefit of your Ramadan other than you just you know you've made yourself tired and hungry you know for a month you know what I mean you know you have to take that opportunity to build the good habits the correct habits to curb those behaviors and when you change yourself changing yourself is actually changing the community but I'm talking too much I'll let you I'll let you jump in there no no no absolutely absolutely to your point the the idea going throughout the month of Ramadan um let's say that our level is here right the level of our our spirituality is here and in the part of our spirituality is a part of uh is in part taking care of ourselves because um you know as comes in a Hadith as in Timothy our bodies and how we take care of our bodies is one of the things that we're going to be questioned about on the day of Resurrection so we we come into Ramadan and our level is here and then we put in the work and we raise our level and we're here so after Ramadan we are going to slack off somewhat and we come down but we come down some we try to make sure that we're not where we started at here exactly we may be here we try to maintain this love until we get to the next Ramadan and then raise our level even higher and then we may settle some afterward but then we maintain that and we see the the nature of fasting the month of Ramadan is to place us on a on an upward trajectory right not not to be static and definitely not to be going backward so uh you know so we uh we have to have that type of a mindset that every year I'm going to try to be better better try to remain in a space someone that is similar to that better until I get to the next Ramadan and raise myself even higher again across the board of spirituality uh and and like you're saying the Act of of food and caring for food and ingesting food it itself is actually a a spiritual act because if we are in tune with our spirituality we're not just eating because we're hungry we're not just eating because the food tastes good we understand that our Lord has provided this food for us so we are expressing our gratitude to him by taking the food and ingesting it and utilizing the blessing of that food so then we ingest that food and we get energy from it and then Our intention is to utilize that energy to obey our Lord with it more and to abstain from what is prohibited more so even this this whole food thing in itself it's a it's a spiritual exercise right it's a spiritual daily exercise and we shouldn't lose touch with that either exactly why do you why do we say Bismillah before we eat why do we say Bismillah before we Slaughter why did the prophet says he say that the believer eats with one intestine and a disbeliever eats with seven why did he say all that gotta be spirit spiritual it has to be so when you see your enemy is flooding your neighborhood with foods that they themselves don't eat they're encouraging their children to eat vegetables and and you know uh you know good food Whole Foods you know from the earth meanwhile in your neighborhoods you get Tang and soda pop and you know what I'm saying and chips and all that kind of stuff right there has to be some sort of plot here right and we need to use this Ramadan right to address these specific issues because we can't keep doing the same thing over and over and over again it's not going to work it's just not gonna work we are most black people are are the experiences are the same across the board internationally right so we have this type of Trauma from this the system and we have to use this Ramadan to get closer to Allah and build the community from within ourselves first fix ourselves first so so that because we are not um divorced from the community we are part of the community right if you want the community to be to be fixed you have to fix yourself what do you think this ramadan's for you got to fix yourself right go ahead Jake no no to your point in being practical with this um you know food deserts that is a that's a real thing right in the um in the area where where I'm mostly active um here in Baltimore Maryland um Baltimore Maryland uh it's it's a food desert it's it just is and um in order to you know get to a Wegmans or a Whole Foods or these type of places um I don't know if you have the same type of you know um Shoppers uh where you are in Canada but you you have to go out of town to get there and everybody doesn't have the Transportation uh to get out of town to get there right have the means to get there on a regular basis so what we do have to do and what we should do we should begin to look at the things that we that we can control uh to this and that we can control them so we we should take the time to begin understanding to some level to some degree even if on a basic level um you know there was a habit at least that uh that that I had as a kid growing up I don't know um about you uh eating cereal in the morning you yeah turn the side turn the side of the cereal box start reading the ingredients and it's like well what is that what is that stuff right and you start to look into it right so just on on I'm not saying to be extreme but on some level start to think about this right what do you what are you actually eating and uh one thing that I did learn that may help some of us is that the the ingredients that are listed um on the back of packaging they are listed in the order of the majority of those ingredients in that particular product from greatest to least so the first ingredient that's there that's that's the largest percentage of what is there and then the percentage is less as you go towards the end of those ingredients right and um you know being conscious of that but what can we do for example um can we eat more fruits can we eat more more vegetables are there Community Gardens in our area can we start some type of a small garden in our yards uh is there a farmer's market that that's available and uh in some of these things they don't have to be more costly in fact some of these things actually cost us less exactly a bit of energy a little bit of time but um but we can get out begin to get ourselves on a on a better track right are we hydrating ourselves properly a lot of us are are undehydrated or dehydrated and don't even realize it we don't understand the difference between when we're hungry and when we're thirsty sometimes thirst can feel like hunger pains but it's different or we have to really begin to get in tune um with ourselves and if we're hydrating ourselves properly then uh your desire for certain foods actually becomes less right it becomes less and of course there's a detoxing process us that we'll go through when we're beginning to adjust the quality of the food that we're eating um because any type of um any type of betterment is often immediately followed with disruption right so in this in this instance if we are bettering the quality of our food then initially when our body begins to detox itself um we may not feel the best right you may get a headache or you may feel a little sluggish immediately but but ride that out for a couple weeks or a few weeks and you will begin to see the the difference in your body your energy levels your your skin complexion uh even maybe some pains that you have and things like that we have to begin to think in the space and embed ourselves in the space and um you know uh again you know I'm in the fight with all of you you know man believe me man like I'm in the struggle you know so so we're all fighting the same fight and we have to we have to you know lean on each other and encourage each other you know to to you know to build ourselves up as individuals and as a community right and being at each other's throats and you know doing the things do making moves that bring no benefit not only does it waste your time but it wastes the time of your entire Community you know what I mean these these type of these type of non-beneficial Moves Like investing in your own indoctrination with entertainment or social media and then on top of that investing your opinions and thoughts on social media you know if I tell you something telling you something like face to face it's not like typing a text or a message on social is not the same thing sure right that that text or message is there permanently is there forever you got me right whereas if you say something and if I yell at you or I call you some name or something it's between me and you but you can literally affect the minds of hundreds and thousands of people with a simple simple text you get me and Black Folk need to not see this as such a light thing because it's not a late thing it's a it's a serious serious thing and it's one of the things that causes the vision and Community the social media thing and and then on top of the food if you're not healthy right if you're not healthy then how are you going to build a community if you can't control your own body if you can't build your own body how are you going to build a community you know what I mean you don't need money to build your body you see what I'm saying you don't need all you need is to know that the enemy that you're fighting is yourself you got me and once you understand that and you ask Allah for help then it's it's all uphill from there but if you if you're not getting it if you're not catching it then it's going to be the same thing over and over and over again right but I want to open up for for people to ask questions I left the link in the chat as well and uh what do you what do you say about that well I I just would um say echoing which you mentioned earlier uh all of us have had some relatives that have had diabetes and you know or some friends that we've seen you know the amputations and uh the blindness that comes on like we've seen these things and you know we've seen um some of our relatives and at this point our brothers and sisters in faith who has suffered from strokes and you know some of them don't come all the way back you know after these strokes and things of this nature and um we have to ask a question really with the way that we're living in the way that we're caring for our bodies what is the difference between where we are now in them except another 20 30 years another 10 15 years if we stay upon the same track that we are so we we we have to we we have to begin to make the changes we have to make the change let's change starts with yourself and don't don't pass the buckwheat to other people waiting for other folks to change their Community you know black people we have this issue right where we're always blaming the the Sheikh or the Imam well why did they Imam do this why did you do what you're supposed to do you know the the shaking even they got their job you got your job right focus on yourself if you focus on yourself everything else gets better correct because the career Resurrection you'll be standing in front of your Lord by yourself exactly exactly you know I mean build yourself build your character build your health you know build your your the the strength of your soul you're build that relationship with Allah and everything else will fall into place but if everybody is gonna keep passing the book of responsibility to other folk right and then after Ramadan we're just going to go back to the same old same old that we are in deep deep trouble and and in in 2023 we can't afford to be in deep trouble there's massive uh economic change coming right and we are going to need Community more now in 2023 than any other time in the past right so the current projections are um that if if we don't get our act together um by 2050 we may become a a permanent subclass let's turn on the class yes permanent underclass right we're going to be and on top of that by those same numbers and I put it on the channel as well the black household average household income will be zero will be zero you got me so there's no really there's really no time to be playing games and all kind of stuff like that's that's the truth it's not like a euphemism or like you know a cliche or anything like that that is the reality we really do not have time to mess around we don't have time to be at each other's throats we don't have time to you know become you know the the biggest scholar on some social media pla platform or whatnot you know we all we have time to do right now is to build our relationship with a lot and then our families and then with the our community but go ahead Shay yeah and it can be a positive experience we can enjoy ourselves and have fun and and those type of things uh but we got the work done while we're enjoying this life as well exactly we got to get the work done which is what why I appreciate you because you're you are somebody who went you went to Medina you studied psychology I believe is is it psychology yes yes you're you're actually putting in the work right and we need more examples like this you know we need more uh um black boys that can find the black academics that look like them who've been through the struggle just like them and can advise them and how to be academic you know I I on this channel I always say that's a black boys they need to get into trades they have to get into trades right especially when they're young why because there is no um you don't have to get a loan to get a trade and if you're not in a trade then you're not going to have a job in a few years you're just not everything is becoming automated everything is becoming AI you know what I mean if you go to your Walmarts or whatnot you're gonna see self-checkouts everywhere even McDonald's is building a entirely um uh personless restaurants where you can just order your food and it's all run by machines 100 machines so so with us now right if you have our our youth that are smart enough to get into Academia then they should be supported by the community so that they don't have to worry about student loans and these type of things the community should come together pay for their their Academia and people like you who have already been through that entire process you can guide these young brothers and how to do it right so uh you have a a YouTube channel as well correct correct uh the Youtube channel is uh my name our healing room I'll leave the this I'll leave the link in the description as well I think I did already I'm not sure but I'm gonna put it in the description as well right I'm gonna uh leave uh it open for questions for the next couple of minutes if nobody has any questions no problem all right and we'll just like cut it cut it uh in a few minutes right but uh any other any other thoughts well well to your point and uh you know we're kind of Shifting away from the the the spirituality and fasting around the bond but I at least have to mention this because you did bring it up that um we we should understand that we should be living the standard quality of life for the people in the countries where we are um we we shouldn't be aiming to live below that yes if if if we end up there okay if allowed to create it okay but we should be aiming to have the standard quality of life of the people in the land that we live in and um you know the way that I have seen it at least and this is is um my own personal observation is is really that we have that we have four options and I don't really see a fifth option uh and in no particular order option number one would be to attain a a high level education that is in demand and and that means um at least to the level of a master's degree in a particular field that is actually uh in demand and is projected to remain in demand throughout our working years number two would be to acquire a a marketable skill set a marketable high level skill set that there are not that many people that can do what you do whatever that thing is um if you have a high level skill set that people need and they can't do they'll pay you for that regardless of whether you have a degree or not and uh number three would be business uh to to begin to learn what money is and and how it how it operates and to begin to build your own business for yourself um literacy is absolutely lacking in the black community before it's Investments number four is investments will you make your money and other people's money work for you I I really think those are the four options that that we have and we have to begin to um really explore them and not settle for less yes yes and alhamdulillah for the black Grassroots because we are about that life here we're both the black unity and black people working together and not being you know the how do you say it like the the the cattle that pull other people's uh weights you know what I mean we're always building other things for other folks all the time our money never stays in our community it always goes to some other folks right we have to do for ourselves right so and so uh there's one question I think is the brother he's asking what time should we stop eating at sahur okay um the question here uh what time should we stop eating at sohur um well firstly not now the questions are flood and then when we uh we're almost out of time huh okay well we'll try to we'll try to deal with these succinctly um so we can get through as many questions as possible so the ideal time to eat sahor is approximately uh 20 minutes or so before fedger comes in uh at the time of el Pasadena cab that was called false fedger which for us in North America happens to be about 20 minutes before Frederick comes in that's the ideal time to eat vegan uh to eat sahore it is permissible to eat it before this time but we have up until the time of badger to eat and um if we get to the time of federal and it just so happens that we have not completed what we're eating there was a there is an allowance in our legislation to complete what is immediately in front of us when we've already begun to eat not getting new food but whatever is in front of us uh can completing that and then moving on uh with your with with your facts from that point even if Federal has uh already entered at the time that you completed your message a lot of those guys all right and the brother CL Everest is asking if you find yourself stuck between your teeth during the fast do you have to spit it out or can you just swallow it well um the the fast is actually uh broken by what surpasses the throat so it's not what's in your mouth it's what passes passes the throat so if you if you find that you have um you know some debris uh that that is in your mouth or whatever have you you would um to the extent of your ability you would strive to not swallow that and you would exit it from your mouth um again to this interview ability right there there are some things that just maybe uh you know beyond your control but what's up Allah of your ability all right so I want to thank the brother and uh thank the brother five two initiative I also also thank the sister Tika I want to thank the brother Kevin hayakumallah and a brother Josh I ain't gonna love big big time supporters of the channel may Allah reward you and bless you and make it multiply it for you all a million fold in this life and the Hereafter I mean I want to thank everybody who joined us as well everybody who left the comment everybody who didn't leave a comment everybody who liked everyone who just watched and of course I want to thank Our Guest Sheikh Akil Ingram would love to have you back I'll leave the link to his YouTube channel on the description if I haven't but I will do that and remember us in your Dua when you're breaking your fast any thing else you want to add there sheikha cute no no we we said it all I'll just close with the prophetic tradition the prophesy is telling me States um the one who was successful the one that has embraceslam and he has been granted a sufficiency in his provision but I couldn't Allah and um he's content with what Allah's provided for him so we ask a lot of makers of those people I mean I mean Hayek we can have you back the Lord right you're gonna come visit us again all right may Allah reward you and bless you all in your face again

OpenBGPD turns 10 years - Henning Brauer
someone is raring to go here so next up is Peter hansteen announcing myself again so your pc cohn next session is heading Brower well-known obesity Network hacker who will help us celebrate the ten years open open bgp d take it away heading yes thank you for coming to the birthday party so 2014 as the title kind of indicates marks the 10th anniversary of Mitra PD I initially started it in late 2004 and well the 10th anniversary of course is a very very good opportunity to recycle a Taniya I mean to look back at the design and implementation and the lessons learned some backgrounds what do I do with BGP why I'm uninterested in that I run a nice feed since 96 98 ish we are heavily using OpenBSD we're basically only using open and free software open BSD since 2000 dish and back then our core routers were running obviously of course but well a software package called zebra for the BGP needs back then there really was no choice there was nothing else there was one alternate implementation that didn't work at all basically so it was zebra or bio cisco zebra is interesting these days it's called what was it now Quorra right that's a good example on how to not design a network demon and especially not a bgp demon first first big big big mistake they use threats second mistake is cooperate of threats they do have a central event queue which means that that everything that's supposed to happen some part goes into the queue so there are some critical events like the keeper lives you have to send to your peers so that he doesn't think that you you died in between and if those don't arrive in time the the peer will drop the connection to you and drop the routes and well losing routes is bad at worst the worst case you're offline now after a while when we figure out that we have to send out the keeper life and the sessions already gone we noticed the sessions guard gets reestablished of course that generates another shiploads amount of it like it not a big amount of events flooding the event queue even more making the problem worse next biggest next big problem with that thing there was almost no documentation the little bit that was there wasn't revenues and might revenues is not very good even the comments in the source code are partially Japanese so I tried to deal with that um I found and fixed the worst bugs like the the ones that really disturbed the daily operations most I got it to kind of reasonably stable stable it was still slow as hell throwing hardware at the problem was not an option because that was already pretty decent hot there a little bit later the zebra author tried to commercialize it and make a living off it which ended like it usually does when people try that with open source software diet the most frustrated users then for croire and still try to try to cope with it but since the the basic design is already so far often so wrong this has no chance of working so starting with bgp di sends a pattern here Theo is to blame at one point one point when I was in Calgary I the veers to blame of course but I think you bought it so I mentioned I mentioned all this too for you and I kind of mentioned that that I kinda consider writing my own implementation but you know it seemed to be a way too big task and unfortunately I feel didn't drink enough so he did remember this the next morning and kept nagging until I actually started I was in late 2003 I was like 2004 there's no you anyway anyway so I eventually start hacking by the time I was able to speak to another PG fear or another BGP implementation like the entire session management but not actually exchanging any routing information I started to to show the prototype to a couple of people the one person who sent a meaningful reply was Claudio did he leave the room yes he did the one person who sent me over I said was Claudio and in December we finally reached the state where we could exchange very basic routing information with another peer and at that point we imported my initial PGP implementation into the OpenBSD tree or while doing so we also imported Claudio the protocol itself is surprisingly simple actually which of you is Borak every protocol its defined in that our sea-ice please taught that to each other every ISP basically announces the list of networks that are reachable through him not just his own ones but through him since dealing with that at the network level is a lot of data like the traceroute style a lot of data and it's sometimes inaccurate you summarize the networks into autonomous systems so typically ISP is one autonomous system instead of dealing with IP Panthers BGP looks at a s path so each and every ISP is just one hop one a s a BGP speaker will announce the networks that like the the this is piece own networks and it can doesn't necessarily have to but it can announce the networks it learned from other BGP speakers so typically that would be downstream customers the a s Panthers are just the a s numbers written written by on each other starting first one this is the the next one this is the final destination in this case the OpenBSD a s and to reach that we have to go through these two guesses that probably changed by an order path if he really only knows about four messages there's a fifth added later but basically four messages there's an open message that you send once the TCP session is established that tells you appear your own a s number a couple of timing parameters and stuff like that there are the keeper lives are already mentioned that are frequently exchanged to make sure that the the connectivity between the BGP speakers is still there we have update messages which are the the interesting ones because those contain the actual routing information and there's the the one you don't want to see the notification that means that a fatal error happened and when you send a notification or receive one you are required to tear the session down and delete the routes so BGP design I did not want to go for threats surprisingly so we went for three processes one I named T session engine which is just responsible for dealing with the TCP connections to to the other BGP speakers it does not itself in any way deal with the routing information it has not even parsed that part it just passes that on to the route decision engine which does all the world useful all the routing that's also the point where the decision which route to a given destination as best is taken and there's a parent process that talks to the kernel and starts the the session engine and the RTE so that's the basic design slightly more complicated than that but that's the basic design the master process to the left runs as route it has to because it wants to change career outing the corner routing table which requires route it also deals with encryption keys which is also a function that requires root permissions it Forks off the session end on the road to certain engine which then drop privileges to an unprivileged user and Truitt's itself into VAR MT which as the name indicates is empty almost upon - recently there was a logic socket in there the communication between those processes happens over over socket pairs so the master process sends configuration information to the other two the session engine sends the routing information that learns from its neighbors to the rata certain engine and of course events like that peer just went away the route decision engine talks to the master process to validate the next stops it learns from from its peers you don't want to install a route into the kernel where the next gate way is not reachable right and eventually it fits the routes to the master process or the master process can enter them into the kernel routing table the session endl is the only one talking to the network and as I mentioned this is an important point these run without any meaningful privileges they have no special features in the system whatsoever and our chain rule is we are once again following the principle of least privilege here so the the each and every process only has the privileges it really needs to do fulfill its task when the when one of the unwritten processes need some some operation to be done that requires privileges it asks the master process to do that for other parent process to do that and send back the results kind of the session engine its root privileges for one single operation that's binding to the TCP port on 197 and as I mentioned the parent process obviously needs root formation since its modifies the corner routing table and IPSec flows but we will get to that later so - to be able to bind to - that low port you could just bind to the port and then drop privileges but that doesn't quite work out because we might have to do this again later after dropping privileges so the way we do this is the parent process thus creates the socket and binds to it and then uses fire descriptor passing to send the socket over to the session engine the parent unfortunately has to keep track of which file descriptors the session is open so it doesn't bind to the same I'm sorry to the same port on the same Epirus again since now the session engine is not doing that point itself anymore it's perfectly fine to run without any special privileges so session engine as I've probably made clear I don't quite believe in threats [Music] so if you are not doing one one thread per connection the other end model to do this without one process for connection which is also stupid the the only other option is to go for a non-blocking a synchronous design that last not least means we have to put all sockets a non-locking note what does that mean usually when we have a socket and we call right on it say with 64 bytes so that's a little bit more perhaps 128 bytes and at that time the kernel can only get rid of say 50 of those bytes because the peers to slow the right call will block and will only return to your to your code once it's done with 120 bytes completely it will sleep once we switched the socket of non locking mode it as soon as it cannot proceed immediately it will not sleep it will return tell us hey I wrote 50 bytes and the remaining 78 bytes you will have to write again later but you need to take care of that in your code so that the consequence of that is that you have to do the buffer management yourself and keep track of which of those bytes you already got rid of at which you still have to write out to to abstract that I designed and pretty easy to use buffer API that's hiding all these details on top of that I added an API for the messaging between the process is called which I called I message does nothing it has nothing to do with that company with that company from the US that that turned out to be pretty I'm surprised myself but that turned out to be a pretty smart thing because we're now using this this very same API and almost all newer open BSD daemon so of course it evolved and of course it's not just my code anymore but that was the the groundwork so these days it's actually in the util and not not duplicated on all the produce anymore that's an incomplete list of of programs in open BSD using that I think that's kind impressive you have to add HTTP Dino for example so the messaging obviously when you to prove a separate demons and have multiple processes each only running with the privileges it really needs the messaging is a core component BPD turn out to to be kinda complex within that area we went up to 66 different message type that's a lot to compare opens H has less they're not just using that messaging framework internally between the processes we're also using this between the little control utility hup-hup control which talks to be GPD using the very same library functions but instead of using a socket pair it goes over a UNIX domain sockets and iMessage doesn't really care about the underlying transport mechanism is it works over TCP just as well so session engine this mansion just maintains the sessions that's its job nothing else as soon as the session is established and all the parameters are negotiated it frequently seats the case since the keeper lives out it keeps track of the keeper lives it gets from its neighbor so it can drop the connection if the peer is dead and it does not deal with routes at all I cannot stress this enough due to that we can be reasonably certain that we will never miss sending out the keep alive in time the session it is very very light light it's typically under five megabytes of RAM if it does get get bigger that's an indicator that one of your peers is very very very slow because it has to buffer a lot the RTE is where most of the magic happens that maintains the so called routing information base that's all the routes towards its implemented mostly as as massively interlink tables the most important ones are the prefix tables that's the the network's the routes the IP IP prefixes and of course the ass path tables the filtering runs there because you don't want to accept everything a random peer sense you it decides which of the path is it learns for specific prefix is the best and some well there's an algorithm saying this is the best what you call the best of course is up for a discussion and it does generate the routing updates to be sent out to the peers itself hence them off to the session angel' itll hands it off to the peers so um as mentioned heavily interlink tables the point here the main point here being that we do not want to do any table walks that's the way a certain commercial route of endor implemented this starts with lucy and that turned out to be a giant performance issue for them because every couple of minutes these walk the tables and clean them up process started and blocked off other operations so I did not want to repeat that mistake it obviously has to be very memory efficient because we potentially deal over there with a lot of routes here and of course I want it to be fast the decision process I mentioned to decide which of the path is is best the first track is the prefix eligible which really means is the gateway reachable was once again we don't want to install their routes second step is the so-called local preference that comes from your configuration which you can use to force BGP need to pick a certain part for certain prefix the third one is the one that is supposed to kick in usually you want to pick the shortest path first that's likely the fastest these days with ISPs becoming bigger and bigger and some is is covering half the world that it's not the best manner anymore but well still everything after is really mostly there to make sure that we decide on a best one so the next step is origin which indicates whether that route originally comes from OSPF or statically configured or the like then there's the multi exit discriminator please don't make me explain that then kind of already gives up external EGP is cooler than the internal BGP sessions internal is of both yourself the same is number the added weight that comes from the configuration as well you can use that to indicate a preference for a certain link the next one is another extension we edit the older one is better because the older is more stable well and then it becomes kind of hilarious the lowest bgp ID wins what's the BGP ID the BGP ID is the numerically lowest ipv4 address on the system if that still doesn't doesn't give a winner which is kind of possible but so the shorter class the list will ignore that cluster stuff for a moment if that still doesn't work the numerically lowest pure address works good indicator and if that doesn't work you're screwed so um you see equally long a s path is more and more because the bigger ISP is all peer in the same spots at least in Europe and for traffic engineering you want to be able to express a preference for for one of your upstream providers this is not local preference because local preference you force traffic onto that one you just want to indicate if they are equally good prefer that one and that's really what that great extension we added is coming back to the parent process which really is BGP DS interface to the kernel besides getting the actual routes and through the kernel it does the next of validation for the RTE as mentioned you don't want to install that out so we have to figure out that the next stops next stops the Gateway is actually reachable to be able to do that it maintains its own copy of the corner routing table it can be quite big right we're talking four hundred thousand interest around sorry four thousand entries roughly so to do that it fetches the entire corner rowing table on on startup and the interface list as well and now it obviously has to keep that in suit with the kernel to do that it listens to the rowdy sockets whenever a route is chained or to change the route from user to send a message to on the routing socket to the kernel and the kernel will relay that message to all listeners on their audio socket so as long as you see all the messages and don't miss one which actually is possible you can we can keep your internal coffee in sook and well that's exactly how we do it and that also means that if you manually modify routes on on the bgp router which we people noticed that and cope with it which the other implementations don't or many other we also need to list of interfaces because the interface goes down we want to invalidate all routes that use that interface obviously since we keep that and sync by listening to the Raleigh socket interface link state is announced there the BGP D process actually notices when you pull the cable and reacts and sorry reacts immediately opposed to a certain commercial implementation that has to wait for the next or next run of that table cleanup process so that that internal view of the kernel routing table can be coupled and decoupled from the kernel why because I could basically it's it's you have to have a mode to run be GPD without modifying the corner routing table if you're not actually running on a on a router but on the system that just relays BGP info information to other BGP speakers there is no point in updating the corner routing table since the code was was there to do couple or decouple it could as well make that a switch to be able to do this run time and surprisingly this was super fast on ten years old hardware in written ten years ago I took under 10 seconds to feed the entire back then three hundred thousand four fifty thousand rods into the kernel within ten seconds it's pretty impressive memory efficiency is still there we still managed to squeeze four thousand routes and roughly 32 megabytes so since its kind of obvious that that your bgp sessions are in the ETP TCP sessions are a nice attack vector somebody manages to make that session go away you remove the routes on the end your you might be offline if somebody manages to smuggle packets onto your TCP session you're even more screwed because he can make you route traffic towards his sniffing box so you really want to protect those and the BGP standards have an extension TCP md5 which really is at the TCP level and not at the BGP level and it turned out that PSD always had code for that well that that code was not even for not just full of dragons it was even worse there was no way this code has ever ever worked impossible so the carried code around four-thirty that never worked brilliant so we just deleted it because it was pointless in unfixable and the notation was wrong instead we re implemented TCP md5 within the IPSec framework because it is kind of a special form of IPSec right that unfortunately means that I had to add the PF key interface to bgp which is the interface the kernel provides too many flights IPSec information that interface has been designed by a committee which is a guarantee for the specification completely suck at rabida completely decoupled from reality still it's the standard so I implemented that it was painful but that means that I could already talk to the crowd about a piece X stuff and that obviously made it much easier to read real crypto like use the real IPSec there's a nice example here on how to not implement md5 signatures and it's from FreeBSD in 2006 they added code to be able to calculate that that md5 signature and send it out but they did not bother adding the code to actually check the signature on incoming packets really really useful another way on how to not implement this is provided by a certain commercial vendor they do the TCP md5 signature check before they do the regular TCP tracks like sequence number match checksum matching so that actually became a denial-of-service backdoor why would you do the most expensive check first doesn't make sense to me this unfortunately spread the myth that TCP md5 stators because it opens the door for the amount of service attacks it seems like only juniper and open BSD got this right and this is astounding because it's not actually all that hard I think previously Estes fixed by now and I'm not sure about Cisco so instead of this half-baked crypto MV 5 GC and we 5 stuff why why wouldn't we be able to do real IP second we're at the interface already so let's do that well static keys it's it's really not all that hard how does it work eg PD loads the security associations that's basically the keys into the kernel and it sets up the flows and you don't have to do anything manually turns out Juniper can do the same you can do the same thing and we are perfectly compatible and also all just works unfortunately and this is one of the lessons we learned even though juniper juniper machines support that drove us supports that basically no ISP enables that it's not being used most eyes please don't even use TCP md5 they keep their sessions entirely unencrypted and too easy to attack Cisco can't do that of course I mean it's entirely possible that there's some there's some features that you could pay extra for that implements that but as far as I'm aware it doesn't even exist and yeah well as mentioned unfortunately it's very very very uncommon to use any any of these techniques to protect the TCP sessions static heat IPSec is nice but how about dynamically key this would be even even better so you need isakmp reef these days could probably use Ike T to do the the keying so the keys are changed regularily the implementations actually are not that hard Beauty gets an unused pair of FB is that some kind of identifier basically from the kernel that uses them it still sets up the flows which is hard to do manually in the Isaac and VD configuration and PGP D already knows the endpoints so there's no point in the admins try having to repeat that information into another contract file which also means the eyes MPD only needs to deal with the keying now not all the other stuff when that a turn means that you can run Osaka MPD without any configuration it really is as simple as copying the key files over there are automatically generated start BGP D with the KF legs and go for beer so the TCP window size interesting topic in 2006 I think there was a kind of famous attack where people realized that it was kind of easy to smuggle the TCP rst onto an existing TCP search like from the outside and the reason being that the TCP windows were too big so the window of a loud sequence numbers was too big for PGP this is critical because session Gohan means routes gone so the default window is be used the default window unless you turn on TCP md5 or IPSec then we grow the window as far as we can to 64 K so conclusion IPSec or cryptography improved performance at some point we figure out that BGP is not just good for exchanging routing information I mean who are out that's just an IP address and and netmask basically right or prefix length so can't we use this for something else yes we can one of the more interesting ideas to use that that finally is being implemented now and Peter is giving the presentation right now I think right all right it's the integration with spam D to exchange IP addresses of hosts that send too much them always doing the other talk sorry [Music] I'm adding confusion here sorry for that so to make use of that BGP D needs to be able to talk to PF and well I might be biased here but also work a lot on VF I was kind of interested in in integrating the two how does that work in the BGP D filter language we have a way to pick the prefixes we want to insert into a specific table in PF that table with a table in the air if you could do anything that PF can do we can filter based on that if that information you can redirect back it's based on that information that's what's being done in the span breakfast distribution case you also kind of quality of service processing if you want opens up some pretty interesting options we have route labels now that's an extension I did in the kernel routing table where we are basically able to add originally 32 I think we do this to 64 bytes now free text from a sheet or out if you do a route get just see the label that's clear text stored in the kernel routing table with the route it's it's it's being set in the BGP filter language so here we match everything from a specific neighbor from a specific autonomous system and add that specific label that then ends up in the corner routing table PF can filter based on those labels said you can you can block traffic based on that but it's it's much more interesting to use that for other bits like quality of server processing so you can put all the routes that point to a specific eye speed and to a specific queue and of course you can slow this queue down and you can tell your customers I always told you that is PU slow [Music] it is really really powerful there are more useful applications I listed some here you can limit the states for a source address depending on the source there so if you know that most of you your attacks come from a specific ISP you can only apply those limitations to that isp it really helps in fighting this really not of service attacks carp your PGP router obviously is kind of important if it's down you're offline so how about being able to use two and a redundant set up and failover generally have carp to do that but now we just need to integrate the to be to be severe of the carp master or a backup state I have my own which is ver of the carp master backup state when the when the carpenter phase is in backup state BGP just keeps all the sessions depending on that one in idle state doing nothing and as soon as the carpenter phase becomes master which would be immediately tries to establish all the sessions to to cut the failover time and it's actually pretty damn efficient it works very very well that's exactly the setup I'm using for more than 10 years now I'm sorry for 10 years the other way around who works as well PGP we can influence the carp master backup decision you do not want to become hard master I mean the carp interface is typically your your your default route for the inside machines right and you don't want your freshly rebooted bgp router to become master before it actually learned the routes so that's why the GPD can demote the carp interfaces to prevent that it'll only mode it when it has the the importantly you marked all sessions and the configuration it'll under mode car when the imported sessions are there established and they're all information is being changed one of my favorite topics ipv6 do I need to say anything about that really can you read the government message or do I have to read it out what these by sets have to be zero by definition no I don't know what to say what is really it's so horrible I mean next here's another example here's a function that's the the ipv4 version it takes takes the netmask and converts it into a prefix length so that's four lines of code and it's only four lines of code because the default route is a special case otherwise it would be one now let's look at the ipv6 version I'm sorry it doesn't fit the slide and yeah it's incomprehensible so PGP D filter language being so involved in PF I I tried to try to make the filters really look like PF and use the same approach so it's one big filter rule set and instead of having filter blocks or one filter / neighbor the syntax is like PF like PF it is last metrans it actually is a properly designed language this is nice to use it's not not just the software accident that happened which is the case for certain commercial implementations the filters are are typically very important unfortunately once again most is please don't do any filtering they'll receive anything their peers announced them so if your if your 5 employee peer suddenly announces hello Microsoft they believe it and this has happened that this frequently happens this is a big problem with proper filters in place this would not be positive but well at exchange points it's it's even more important at exchange points everybody typically peers for the route service because everybody peering with everybody obviously doesn't quite scale so there are route service everybody peers with the route service and the route service redistribute that information these route servers better filter what they accept from the exchange point members before redistributing that for everybody else right it's only some exchange points doing that the other is roughly half by now I'd say the other half of the accession points don't do any filtering at all once again this is especially problematic since everybody trusts those small service right and since since some exchange points get quite big the filters get very big we did we did load the filter used at the filtering used in Frankfurt at g6 the resulting route set was some 150,000 lines or so because very massive and that's exactly the problem here with trying to implement those just like PF like one big rule set sequential evaluation and last metrons we do have a big performance problem there that was a mistake which we still haven't fixed unfortunately it will be much better to just do smaller filter blocks to apply them on a per neighbor basis at one point we'll have to do this but we keep saying this for these five years now it's not funny all the time to do so missed the example the ecosystem is quite important record UNIX UNIX machine doesn't suddenly become a good router just by installing a BGP speaker on so it's not just the BGP implementation we modified the kernel to make OpenBSD better Radha because there are priorities we've got multiple routes multiple routing tables and eventually routing domains we even got an MPLS stack and also it's not just BGP you also want SPF DV m RP D for multicast stuff and for the few places that's the run run let's the run rip we even got a rip tear implementation Hot Topic so called software versus so-called hardware routers many many ISP employees keep claiming they have to buy Hardware orders because all that software stuff is just and slow and whatever in reality most of the so-called hardware routers share exactly the same design it's basically a PC running software it's only the really really really big and expensive routers maybe on hundred thousand euros that implement implement more bits in dedicated hardware software orders can be realistically used up to somewhere around 10 gigabits that is quite a bit in reality you want to go a little bit lower because you you want to maintain some Headroom for attacks on the other hand of course that limit goes upwards every year because the hardware becomes faster and really nine percent serve the install PGP rollers don't handle that much for a fix so they are perfectly fine with a software implementation and obviously which would be to give much more flexibility than the dedicated hardware last at least because you can run TCP dump which you can't do on your on your commercial routers and especially the use cases like route servers that don't forward traffic really cry for software implementation so status it's rock-solid it's reliable as hell I can stand here not worry about dropping off the internet it is pretty much feature complete it's in use by many ISPs and exchange points I just learned we despite the filter performance problem have a market share about 30% at exchange points 1/3 not too bad there are some really really really big is piece using that so when you are sending or traffic from the internet chances of that passing and open usually in running BGP D is quite high of course it's much cheaper to buy run and operate than buying the big brand so-called hardware routers and for those who don't trust themselves of course you can buy commercial support from a couple of companies including mine and that's basically we don't have time for questions okay so it's coffee your questions well hi how do you cope with routing messages that are lost that's almost a separate talk because it's kind of hard we modified we modified the kernel to to figure out when that happens so in the kernel we know when that happens and then we sent a special message up the routing socket indicating hey you lost a couple of messages which you can use in userland to to refetch the entire stuff and how do you debug open BGP d these three beasts three that's a very that's not very specific most of the time by just adding a couple of front offs sometimes by inspecting the core image with GV if it actually done core which hasn't happened in a long time for me it really depends on what you're on right now but usually you get away with a couple of printers and it's faster than all the other techniques thank you what number of routes would you consider is production safe from the diesel maximum number from the BGP learned from the BGP decider from the chrono side actually both from the BGP decide the the only limit radius memory so I can't give you a number it's kind it's not infinite but for practical purposes it is the biggest one I'm aware of has over over 2 million ok so just for full feet but yeah that's just for 4 feets right no no more than 2 million prefixes ok it's a very large ISP that has all the customer rods in there like the DIA created ones that he's not going to publish outside it's very large fun and they do load them in the kernel it works so 2 million is definitely not yet a problem in the crowd of the limited really only is memory 2 but the kernel memory infrastructure is different than userland I can't give you a number it's once again for practical purposes not limited of course the bigger your chrono routing table the slower there's no other lookups so for the packet forwarding path that is a could be a performance problem and another question um I think two years ago I tried to use open BT PDF to implement C BGP and it does not had support does this process will change to bgp configurations is this changed now no ok so we are not feature complete groups so the questions everybody is strife everybody's like well if everybody's showing let's think

Google Forms Intro
thanks for joining this quick training on Google Forms I'm Sonja Fox web technology specialist with agriculture communication just as I'm getting started I'm gonna tell you to stop in the instance that you need to collect money through your Google Form maybe you're having an event and there's a cost for it you'll have to use the marketplace app for that because Google Forms does not have the functionality or security to collect financial information also Google Forms is very simplistic there's a limited number of question types you can use and other form tools such as Qualtrics are a lot more robust they have some automation built into them but if I'm finding that for the most part most people can use Google Forms all right what is this deal about Google Forms did you know Google is more than just a search engine through NDSU I TS we have Google Apps through education and that provides us a whole suite of tools through Google to do our jobs and if you look at that screenshot there this is just some of those and you'll see we have access to Google Drive we have for YouTube we can have our own YouTube channel and on the bottom there in purple you'll see there's app for Google Forms so why on online forms I've collected some quotes here from people who use Google Forms and I've been told that they feel that it makes things very simple whether they're collecting information for an event or an evaluation they seem to think it makes the process is really simple now so they think it projects a professionalism on our part rather than dealing with the stack of papers this is a little more slick people can access Google forms through their phone very mobile friendly and also they feel that their audience is very comfortable in submitting online forms and with online tools in general not only is it easier on your client it's also easier on you all that paperwork you'd have to collect and manage and probably have to input online anyway to use it this eliminates all the paperwork makes it much easier because what happens is those responses end up in a Google spreadsheet which you can manipulate the information you can sort it as you see fit it also has pie charts and graphs that can display the information as well and it's a lot easier to share online to rather than having to say scan paper registration and share it with somebody it's all online available ready to use here's some examples I took some screenshots of what people are using Google Forms for in the top left Brian over at the agronomy seed farm used them for the foundation seed orders and for the last two years we've been using the drought form where we send out weekly to the agents to get their input on how the drought is doing in their counties and then odd nine uses that information to report it to the Drought Monitor sue and Barnes County uses Google farms quite a bit with her 4-h activities this is just one screenshot here she's dit for achievement days to get feedback from people who participate in her activities so she could use that information to prove on the activities the following year so that's the how and why of Google farms all right now that we know what a Google Form is and what it can do when we go to Google Forms the first thing you'll see is that they have a bunch of templates that are available for you in their template gallery there's examples here for an event registration a blank quiz exit ticket etc so before you start creating on your own go ahead and take a look at what's out there you might already find what you're looking for and you can edit those as well to make them your own the ones towards the bottom are actual Google Forms that I've worked on in the past you'll see that they're different colors there's different designs and you do have that flexibility to design it to make it look the way you want it to however if it's a public-facing form I would suggest using one of our newly branded logos that are available here's the question types in Google Forms the first one a short answer the first two options actually four short answer and paragraph is that people are able to input the information whatever whatever they want to use they can type in the other ones are all options that you decide for them that they can choose from but the first two short answer is typically used for collecting information on the name or address next is paragraph that just gives them more room maybe they want to describe the drought conditions in their county or if they want to elaborate on a previous question they can do that with that paragraph question type next is multiple choice people choose one option from a list and next is checkboxes where they can choose more than one option for a list drop-down is next that's the same as multiple choice they just click on an arrow they'll see all their options they choose just one option however I suggest not using the drop-down option I've been reading that it's not really web or user friendly next is file upload if you want people to have the ability to upload an image or maybe a word document that can do that through this option however is restricted to people who have NDSU Google Apps for Education login so unfortunately that option won't work if it's a public facing form next we have scales and grids and I have some screenshots here if you want to measure something give them the option to measure something in terms of a range like low to high and next is the date option if you need to collect some date information this is going to get you a consistent answer because all this information is gonna be going into a spreadsheet that you can go ahead and take a look at the responses once they're recorded but what's not about nice about this date option is that again for the consistency so let's say someone might say write out July 4th 2018 someone might write 7 - 4 - 18 another person I write 7/4 / - 18 so with this date option you're going to get a consistent answer next is the time option again you'll get that consistency there I've never seen anybody use this question type before I'm not sure when we--when would but just know that it is available and if you are doing if you are doing event registration form please note this is really important that we need to include this verbage on it since NDSU must provide people with alternate accommodations if they need it we must have this information on here if you go - OH - let's communicate and Google that or I have the terminology right here so don't forget to use this when you're doing events you

Congress finds 'substantial evidence' George Santos violated ethics, committed crimes
girl um good morning good afternoon good evening family welcome to the mental house with me your host kadia uh I want to know what this mean maybe somebody know because I can't figure it out first of all Congress finds substantial evidence George Santos related um violated ethics and several and he committed crimes including fraud and used campaign funds for personal use in damning ethic report right and this article comes from the daily mail and they said now this is what I don't get it says Santos would not run for reelection but is not resigning well what the heck is he doing another vote to OU him from Congress expected after Thanksgiving this dude is a straight Bonafide C he's he's a nut case Okay so Congress has found Republican representative uh representative George Santos use campaign funds money campaign money and donations to fund lavish lifestyle engaged in fraud filed false election reports and willfully violated ethics bombshell findings on the long awaited house Ethics Committee report released on Thursday show the so-called Long Island liar stole from his campaign spent thousands of dollars on Hermes handbags designer Goods bolox vacations only fans and Sephora makeup I I can't make this stuff up um lawmakers on the committee unanimously voted to refer Santos to the justice department for further prosecution the panel concluded that there was substantial evidence that the GOP law maker who embellished almost all of his resume blatantly violated ethics and sought to fraudulently exploit every aspect of the house candidacy for his own personal profit sounds like a real good Republican don't he this is insane The Staggering report prompted Republican Ethics Committee chair Michael guest to file a new motion to expel Santos after a vote last month failed a vote on the new resolution will take place after Thanksgiving Santos responded by announcing on Thursday morning that he would not be running for congress again in 2024 he tore into the biased report and accused the Ethics Committee of going to extraordinary lens to smear myself and my legal team isn't that interesting I never heard of that in all my years now whenever Republicans or whoever you know whenever they lose when it's when they win everything is all good but when they lose somebody is exploiting them somebody is cheating them somebody is mistreating them these people come they right right for the mental house ain't they anyway um the bipartisan committee stated in his report committee stated in his report representative Santos sought to fraudulently exploit every aspect of this his house candidacy for his own Financial profit he blatantly stole from his campaign he deceived donors into providing what they thought were contributions to his campaign but were in fact payments for his personal benefit in the stunning dossier also states that the congressman reported fake loans to his political committees so that donors and party committees would want to make further contributions to him it was found that Santos deceive people into donating to Redstone strategies in which 2022 was listed as a committee dedicated to supporting his candidacy and then transferred those funds to his personal account using the money on seph only fans and a 4,000 purchase at her Hermes he it also found that he spent campaign funds on Botox treatments and lavish Atlantic City trips with his husband representative Santos continues to flout his statutory Financial disclosure obligations and has failed to correct countless of errors and omissions the committee said ain't this a trip so he just a straight up crook I'm done with this story another 20,000 transfer from campaign to his company devolder whose account had a negative balance at the time and from there money was used to make $6,000 worth of purchase at famo withdraw $800 in cash at a casino withdraw another, in cash near his apartment and to pay his rent y'all hear me anyway I I'm it's so egregious I want to know what y'all think y'all think he should resign you think they should tell us what the hell's happening to him after he said he not going he's not going to run for 2024 but he didn't say he was going to resign what in Sam's tar Nation does that mean anyway tell me what y'all think the ethics panel find this dude is just out of control paying for Botox and every damn thing okay I'll see you in the next video

They say there's no Luxury in Bulgaria...let's see. Kranevo's 5* Luxury Thermo Village Hotel
no see this is not the place this is not the place just a quick one why i'm phoning you yeah i've got some friends so it's like 20-year anniversary coming up been showing them some of your videos you know and all about the bulgaria and everything and they've asked if you can find them you know like a five-star hotel uh it's not that far from the airport and not not that expensive would you be able to start a night with that yeah definitely i can look into that so i mean i'm gonna look for some well it's 20-year anniversary some a nice luxury beautiful place not too expensive not far from the airport i'll look into that for them definitely yeah make sure it's really good though because they're really good friends and i and i want some you know i want to have a really good time and i've really been plugging you know all about bulgaria and everything you can do yeah all right okay all right then bye love you bye bye so my mom's giving me the challenge now i gotta find this hotel beautiful hotel for her friends hopefully we're gonna do it so i think i found the place i've booked us a couple of nights in me janna and petya time to go and get packed i'm going to go and check this place out [Music] right that's it is everybody ready yay but i think you're not ready why because i bet you forgot those things again two minutes [Music] when i'm gone [Music] all right so let's go [Music] so i guess you want to know which of the hotels that we decided to choose we chose thermal village here in cranivore five-star luxury sparring hotel so we're going to check it out we're in the middle of winter here now so it's from the outside it's not looking so well but i can imagine what it's like in summer so i'm going to show you from the promotional videos what it looks like in summer i'll show you that now [Music] so it looks like a beautiful place to come in summer yeah so let's enter into the hotel wow wow look at the foyer look at the grand for you so while we go check in i'm going to give you a tour of the hotel [Music] i [Music] remember everything you said had to go on dreaming cause baby you are i everywhere that you were [Music] yes okay you've had a little tour of the hotel now now i'm going to take you down for dinner i'm going to show you dinner breakfast to show you what all the food is about i can't wait to see what it's like come on then [Music]

Planning Board February 6, 2018
[Music] good evening seven o'clock you have formal call planning board meeting to order reciprocal information is Larry Tuttle I'm here to hopefully cover the review that is [Music] basically is it there's no Commission everybody is wanted to get out of the review business up for the planning court it's not going to be yes yes I got a public statement from the historic Commission they make their recommendation or decision okay yeah that's and that's fine because we will be using the Historical Commission as a review board at their request already and worked out the both ways and they decide now though they don't want to get us they want to get out of that from that task so be it and we will take over that responsibility if you would and like as far as I'm concerned we saw the plans they looked nice we've have any plans but just a cover the bases because it was in the overlay district we said keyboard you were read to look and me as our conceptual piece of it we've already gave you to approve the plan subject to that second ended motion in a second all in favor I mean any folks local pastors for zero one abstention [Applause] email this to have these planning okay last year in February [Music] and I am back today to my clan slightly modified site finally just as a recap in in February 2016 one group or two buildings along Russell Street approximately 10,000 square feet each this was second immunity position every climate for farmland preservation by law under transfer of development rights when brings back to you today I'm hoping you'll see it with very minor this site plan is still two buildings totaling about 23,000 square feet which is roughly 3,000 wouldn't be greater than what it was previously yes sir and we are we received very positive feedback on the first plane what we feel this new one really gives us more flexibility with leasing these spaces provides greater furniture along Russell Street and creates an even safer vehicular and pedestrian circulation throughout this our part out parcel area so what I'm hoping these days agree that this is a minor in in nature and that also don't have to go of a parity process happy to answer no chance you as well what you finish effective and then so we are under transfer of development rights as well this layout allows us to recapture more marketing area and asphalt areas are our efficiency of parking area is reduced under this one so we have improved that as well we also still are providing a pedestrian friendly space in between we have adequate parking lot without the purchasers they'll feel like we have sufficient parking to be able to cover the commands what's the difference in size between the two buildings for sure these two buildings are 23,000 and change and the previous ones are 20,000 about 30,000 square feet Margaret yes okay what are they gonna look like that's what I want to know yeah they're gonna be uh yes that's we want to see that they want we want to see if you on the place look like okay very similar to what we were proposing back in 16 obviously I think though retail it has changed a little bit so they are going to be they are gonna be modifies so happy that I don't think so a couple of questions from is this going to affect the transferee development rights calculation yes it actually will reduce the amount we've increased our I can provide that when you do come in next time just have an indication of square footage and parking available be good I notice you had some parking places but them all off square footage and also to the simple discussion about South Maple Street and the big you and you come back with a plan we have to say would like to see what your final outcome is on the fabric that's all there is potential there that's we incur divorce the pebble time we did yes he just kind of disappeared that we hired brought me all our associates to do is multiple reconfigurations along South maple and then Boston Romeo where the peer reviewers of that in between art engineering and ocean or one that wasn't groove definite lesson here two years ago and that would be the plan that we be will be bored with selectors so Gigi so we need a rendering we need ter recalculation what actually will look like what does not get a little something like this what that's what will hold you to the building to the Coventry of the TV every calculation Oh Park month what's gonna happen to these other watch yes so it's an apt so nothing right now what is that their lease yes so those two retailers that building dissolve this land belongs to W s that's correct yeah the manis and the KFC do mm-hmm and right now those are not part of this about buttons this point doesn't hear tones for these buildings right we have we have some that are signs yes and then another one or two that aren't signed yet that I can there's a question I image the only the only decline would sign a constant [Music] okay so occasionally yes we could have proved this without a motorcycle without posing public hearing okay you want to see what I look like with what are the traps okay I can send that over explain yes and we meet again in two weeks us tonight if you can make it sharp Sam an informational session yes you bring a plan of design building you had before this is what we had mr. halbert's I do hungry and I speak to you tonight we'd like to spend some time and introduce vo to Russell Street our claims for property which is better known as they keep the site I am in the process of working through the approval process on that as you may or may not know we went to see th the other night for the planning so that's in process so I think I'm gonna let Tom explain we want to talk a little bit about sign it should wait you with a site plan and answer any questions and concerns this you know yeah so you know they have to bring this up such a familiar with the site 303 appeals the end of January to get a finding it has 197 22 feet of frontage it's in the industrial zoning district but it's been in that configuration from before zoning and so the proposal will ultimately be in front of you Harbor Freight building and then a rao's building so we'll have a retail sales building here in the front it's about a little shy of 16,000 square feet I think we're proposing about 45,000 square feet of parking and then we've got what would be the Rao's Coffee Roasting retail distribution facility back here yeah so this it doesn't include 305 Russell Street that's completely separate it's owned by somebody separate this is totally amazing 35th company this is RC building this is extra nice thing that will stand the building so the building will stay and then quite frankly we're having discussions with Steve Lewis to see if that'd be something that they want to take over and change the access those those conversations have not begun in earnest so this would be some configuration and some footprint about no more than a 5,000 square foot rainouts building back there and then better than 16,000 square feet back here is about 20,000 square feet of a parking salute each meet those parking requirements the to the one and if for whatever reason because process either the wetlands are greater than or we have them in some places and so part of this was just to introduce the project to you commercial site plan repeats special permit business use in the aquifer and the stormwater permit but also to get your feedback on the signage and we looked at the bottle of your the either single tenant we saw it as no more than 64 square feet so what you'll find in your packet is together we have a few different configurations we know how the Planning Board is attentive to what the zoning bylaw says and what signs are actually provided so we've done with you know it's six before these these are all separate as well so the first one you'll see is a 64 square foot this is the center entrance so this would be facing north to the entrance in the center of the building so when the site plan it would be right here what we've got here is a corner like vestibule entry here so this would change the layout a little bit I believe this is what the 64 square 16 only on one side and then we wanted to change the board's interest in potentially supporting of variants to allow this is 135 square feet overall that's the center of entrance and then we've also got that rendering showing it on the corner again only one of the sides and then we have 250 square feet unease for 500 square feet total which we don't think is realistic what we had it there anyways the building is going to be about 130 to 150 feet back from the roadway so sit back a bit it's a very tight timeline but just to have signage and so we wanted to come to you to get a sense of where can we go with this and then the last one we have your packet is the freestanding sign the pile inside the only seats that 64 square feet will probably be put over here on the site plan and then both signs altogether this will be about 75% of that 64 square feet and then this will be the balance of has no issue with a larger side sunny weather we launched a town meeting to try to make that change we haven't even gotten the majority the towers as recently as I want to say three years our concert was very much against renting a larger sign for gaining reasons so for that reason I would have to say that through Indian paper of a larger the 64 square foot site you're speaking for yourself I certainly for businesses with with bend over backwards so they can stay in business and signage to me is very important and I'm sorry support businesses of science are business owned they need advertising to make money mmm that might be the harbor freight tools they're looking to invest in how they come to the site on Route nine you see what Amazon has done to some of the other the Walmart's not exchange so in answer to your earlier question clean off what John said I would support a zone change to a laws by watching my signage but I would not support various you know the I don't understand where you're coming from every national chain company that comes in was the bigger size and the town of smokin Joe's they do not want bigger size P they're not one in friendlyville have to be you know the gooseneck kind of like the other side of the editorial comment is this only any sense to you could will very zarin's alvey's Walpole Tigers have the biggest signs in towns there you're no longer in town so signing so won't do that is this gonna be sing a lot because if they were going to be could you happy village have to Saudis but if it's going to be a single a lot okay so once I have six you get to find it you could take your 64 it's important one all right two sides just doesn't need a big and I don't know they have a preference before we show them either these what we got from them was a center entrance but berries are the pink about the orientation of the building on the lot with the traffic on the design of what would make sense how many gonna see the same funda same with other anyways it's obviously conservation that's going to be critical to be modest where footage is going to be available for parking we're working on that make sure this is space since I've become involved with engage the LSP to investigate the site so we're doing out right now we think we will be on the site to allow the existing buildings to come down the site to be scraped and then have the people paid into the soil on it not touching the lovers once that close we'll go in front of column for a notice of intent or this as part of that will be real alleviation of the delineation of the screen bank and then the Linnaean and earnest of the wetlands on site and that will really solidify we hope to move through any ously because this is a time well then this is a great example of the subterranean parking lot each field okay so this was going to be a little bit different actually so after discussions with the Department of Environmental Protection they thought that having this actually flow some sort of you know the routine to bid through this enough before so you know don't wait for us to go to the various engineers what you can do the design time you could get you know anything good good good right timeline you know talk to your engineer have them get involved with reviewing engineer to choose which one you wanna unit both ways and get going on that don't don't don't you're going through this outrage of this if ABC you can go ace a CB d EF on all yes please everyone stay as straight no color there's one here you see right there a box culvert and then there's one double lock over there obviously there's this state state trainee just take the cross over drinks considered a river what is this once it crosses you know I believe that goes west into the zone he goes by the pump station by the pump station that there's a leave it goes westward towards something there's like a little bit of a crevasse for lack of oil we're bears we're going back under Mill Valley Road and out to Fort River through that man bring whatever you want to call you later on come lady put the backside would originally gives up it goes across I believe I don't obey go across Mill Valley then it flows and this goes west across mr. Carson no no not the Parsons it goes east towards north/south equal Street if you look on this out on the right side of South Bay going down [Music] yeah we use those cyclic words all right as far as the rest of the stuff but he signed it and waiting with lady is that because you've got no hoses there's no hose nearby outstanding work different stat so I did and it says that I have to in order to tear the builders out which they want so they can see if there's any more wetlands they're so engaged or any eyesore to go out and that's wrong here where the buildings off and then how we investigate to see if there's any more web conferencing on what happened yeah [Music] sign sign there that you sang ended your just layman good sign come on up what take you before Eid well this is mr. Roberts oh no no snot this is the is on the nail spa across from the auto service that what yes their new building there okay [Music] so this is 2 feet by 2 by 5 square square P for the one that's on the outer door but that's inside the window yes there now downtown at this interface design for the building we're going to be inside we're seeing if you're not going to see this from the outside survey well when you open the outside door then you're going to see this son's correct you're gonna have two Saints one on the inside and one on the bottom like she's a while signs they were allowed not to exceed she's only putting in 20 square feet that's at the top in so she's okay she said that she could less one less squirt what a good sign then I'm glad you wire it a lot then allow so we're just approving the side roads or so you know so moved to approve the second [Music] like he's dumped Verisign on the street of them talk to the building inspector [Music] this is project like the future should be the so apparently we're at the middle point of the design for the Senior Center so rewarding you guys have showed you where we're at in design we're not having boring right now we're only ready to submit an application for approval but we can so I'll get into the site design and I'll hand it over to Chris and speak to the building facade design so we have 46 little Street here on Queen Anne here we're kind of emphasizing but East End look a lot you have the existing Senior Center here as you paid in here so at the beginning of the site design and understanding where we're going to locate your building we went to a couple exercises understanding what the site looks like if the buildings on the forcing a lot of that box besides perhaps was the East End is a lot and have a center parking lot that I've seen yourself both utilize overflow of region folks utilize the library utilize so so this is the season for economy we show that east ended a lot right now so that's carving the existing locations Connelly the Legion overflow parking ok and work where is the parking gonna remain in the east side so this is the new parking designer marking is going to be moved okay to the west to the west side the building so the idea is you enter in from Middle Street all the main staff documents for the seats enter ends upper middle street and they have the parking lot here if there are any octopus that are taking of the end drop-off service they can come in it dropped off at the entry of the building loop out the Senior Center building community made highlight that they didn't want to build and they had two main entries so you know have a pocket on this side of it that's I didn't feel like it was the best way for them to monitor the building it wasn't the most efficient way to design the site held in the event that there was no parking here and staff members they have to come along here the park either go game through if it was a second actually posted back and will walk all the way around the building to go to the main actually on the west end of the law so where's the library the existing libraries right here the new ones essentially the same footprint so we've started pointing with the library OPM's contractor to have that we understand the architect actually use it yes so we got the air site plan they also did a revised scheme of their site for them to that kind of you know lays out a little bit better with our parking lot but we were still at the beginning stages of trying to create a parking layout that works for both buildings but we're going to take the ground running once the architects signed up claustrophobic on that site was that you feel claustrophobic on that site I don't know if it's possible but I mean yes you got a one big park line between two buildings but the idea is besides having a lot that could be shared by multiple people it can also we have room for a green space the idea is to create a green space where there's benches set up and kind of est campus feel on this property the overall future for the southern property line we're looking at approximately 45 feet and whatever that existing lot depth is the green area yet so this is the this is where the proposed libraries gonna be be ideas is some type of green right now is showing the green area here but that ultimately can change based off of our coordination with the library folks yeah here's that's green space in between these two buildings as opposed to the parking lot was that as opposed to the parking lot but that's what our partners well this is the new parking lot we show Lonnie area here but again that might change once we start putting the line of folks in enhance the landscape design so another thing to speak about with the site design the idea is to create this Center sidewalk that helps off it's get from you know their parking spaces to the Senior Center building as well as for emergency vehicles purposes only we have an entrance off of Route 9 year that because we would existing vehicular paths through the existing Legion parking lot so the idea is we get our underground utilities from route 9 into the building and after doing so we have an accessible sidewalk to reunite we repave we strike to this side of the Legion WOD we create directional striking so it's clear to folks that that's the vehicular path so huh how big is the building it is a price of twelve thousand fifty square feet so you need 25,000 square feet of partner area and that's what this is how much marketing are you showing good about eating parking spaces I'm gonna primary square peanuts that is where we will actually I need not my number of spaces [Music] give or take whether you're providing 16,000 square feet Furby yeah yes the playa larga corta does that mean flip sorry this has the engine cycle so that's just a parking space in the loan and the access aisle is you I see you have an arcade summary did you break it down yes I can't see so well that was kind of it for the site design if you Kristen popular filled inside the minds responsive for the exterior building was a context insight in the town as a whole Hadley as an agricultural town consists mostly of building so for the senior senator we have you can see if you have a mixture of or siding with some shingle siding and some some swamp in here basically it's a it's a comedy it's a different material it's not actual cedar post ability thirty years about a thirty year window why are we putting in the maintenance required facility for sighs why are you putting in a maintenance requires why are we designing a building that's requires negative 17y siding is not really a long-term solution it's a break sound president for a commercial facility so we wanted to go with more of a commercial great exciting material so we went with a fly ash it's called both Bora I'm excited so yes it hits it requires anything but it's very durable it will hold up over a long period of time it's built for 50 70 year builders building 20 years ago it's about a 20-year paint that's about a 20-year think it was they're gonna call it the pink that building today minute when should a month like like Puentes why we're putting out a building it's going to require 20 years from now we're gonna probably captain I would guess what's going to twenty years and I like the other $2,000 each other at least 50 more okay I mean that's a big building and we're going to put design in maintenance record what why I don't I go back to the durability of the vinyl siding it's more of a residential material they make when they make they make vinyl siding that's extremely long-term durable from two big buildings and it just amazes me that we would design an a maintenance required building knowingly designed to them doesn't make sense continue so for the actual massing of the building so this is this is a high gabled houses on the so that access panel link between the activity spaces which is located east of that and the hottest wing which is - that's like I said the exodus base that there were points to the east of this higher volume and the office wing is to the west yeah orientation counseling gives the staff really good views of the parking lot the mana tree and the patio which are all for hands although that may be the other materials that residential work with was the standing seam over again just to get that and the traditional field we also have some farmers here that we cut into some spaces to break up the large roof areas and also just bring daylight in so space standing metal scene roof needs to look like shingles piece look at Jimbo's under the under the village overlay district building needs to look like asphalt shingles to comply with zoning we can make it any material you want yeah but that's what it's going to look like okay so can you recover from the drop-off area in parking lot here to the main entrance we also have the east side of the building over here that both activity rooms are we made provisions for our future so let's take advantage of that now large southern facing roof without a middle group yes that was one of them easily no fix so don't think this is an offense we had a gentleman come in here that specifically was told he had a metal roof on his farm he says a huge room and he was told he couldn't put solar panels on the roof we questioned him on any wood chips your business yes where are you doing yes what I was surprised to hear that and now you tell if you're putting this if it was an existing building okay this is designed structure so they can accept all of it means making specific whoa for the metal panels we had specific ribs on the panels to accept those clips so that's kind of the gist of the building on the east I even got the website well yeah are you yeah so the idea was one like I said to create that Center pokémon where it could be utilized for vibrant people's huge center folks overflow for American Legion not creative what we thought was a inefficient site layout where a person may have to be forced to drive around the building and then walk back around the building to the main entry because the vote building committee just did not create a building that had two main entrance on both sides of it so the idea was great a full old highlighted main entry and it made sense when we did that to not have a second part block drainage what are you gonna do what entirely contained on site we have an underground a filtration system he's really nowhere to discharge stormwater here so underneath the parking lot will be a scenario we don't test boring to say that that's okay yeah yes we did some test pets as well as infiltration test confirms capacity you liked underground filtration okay we're also going to make sure they work there is a penalty mr. Robert said would be useless on this site so yes its coordinating the two buildings isn't it gonna be the plenty ones responsibility the Select boys responsibility library person Senior Center for example just because here here first us with the hostess you could usurp all those parking that may be required for your building and we library so somebody has to board make that if somebody has to get a picture I just want to say that we have already started meeting with these folks we're actually me again this Thursday but we have we are coordinated meetings between the seniors gonna focus the library focused and our audience so perhaps would like to see as we do with many commercial development what is to build out of this site who's going to have the parking and what's going to be a lot of to the Senior Center what's going to be a lot of to the library right now they're short on parking there sure enough parking there here they may take your parking will you have enough parking how big is your building it and which are OPM's are for anything more yes essential we have Molly coming and even Nixon but we're happy to invite a Planning Board member to those pages nobody should come before the board we don't need to be part of the design process you don't want to be part of the design process we just want to see a complete design of two projects how do they mesh yeah like mrs. Roenick said how's the party working and all the rest of stuff and rain is difficult because we consider this it is one site it's not two suckers not yet there's one project yeah so like she a mesh like I started pointing with the librarian and then I will continue to do so and we're gonna set up a meeting you go through the site design to make sure both site layouts work for each building and we can present it on the bottom of your drawing where you've got the driveway room yep the légion lot with a parking Oh at least the school will keep I'm gonna call this the hooker school site to keep to make it more clear what the school with the old hooker school have a right-of-way through there are you in that right-of-way you once I have the right running no so originally we designed this emergency vehicle entry within that right of way but that right-of-way happens to be along American Legion parking we met with the American Legion folks and that was a big hardship for them besides losing their overflow parking so we look we look at this layout and we said well this is an existing vehicular path as it is right now in terms of how they circulate through their law so let's utilize that and while we're going through the site work and the construction project you know will repaint essentially this whole worki area will strike that side of their parking and then I started coordinating with David Nixon on you know how have they needs to figure out some type a assistants application I know obviously a lot of people here about the lesion and the parking and that's going to be an interesting discussion so I'm not going to put you guys up everyone on this one address the small details first before we get into that particular item okay any other issue concerns about the Mayo lighting lighting this village there's a lot of residences around you know what's the lighting gonna be so we got whole lighting LED to provide for the co required for kids throughout the site throughout the parking it's actually it's actually enhanced because for a senior facility we like to do double what is required for what's it'll be done for right in the parking lot so I think one foot handles at the standard we do two or it's double much make sure the exact numbers we can look for shoe box fire lighting fixtures shielded yes question is you've got the whole southerly side is all residences we want to make sure that the lighting isn't concluding onto their property either directly or indirectly so that that means you know so what's one thing you know go three miles on a road if they're nowhere close right big deal here it's going to be able to get one make sure it's not because we may be when you get up to that design make sure that it stays on their property however you better do them I can't take all that parking away from the legions and make the leap non-compliant I mean what they're gonna do is basically put that lead and I don't know how they coordinated with the Legion they didn't even coordinate for what the taxpayers because if they came in to the annual town meeting and said we're going to take the upper parking lot that the Legion has used since 1950s for parking and we're going to put our building on top of it I think if the people knew that the David said no way I think this whole site between these programs is way too small for these two big development I will not support this I think it's a joke I think it's a big joke I think you're doing a big injustice to the American Legion that's been there for a long time and these guys said I'm gonna hold some of them are but they're old and you're gonna make them crack up back there and walk all the way to Legion you walk on back they don't have to walk on back they paid their dues you need to pay your dues buddy I want to make sure we do that one it's do anything else to the board ethical question on other than where the parking is on the building locally but I'd suggest if there's been an implied contract with the wages just a minute wait a minute other issues other than the parking in the layout I think it's parked from a campus you have that sea of asphalt you're not going to get any cross fertilization between the library and the yes we're not including the library today we're not including the way right with this proposal whatever just be aware that we know a certain thing to the library just from information the library and the Senior Center are indeed exempt under state law from as far as money goes but you're not exempt regarding parking lighting drainage green space and stuff like that okay you can put them you can put these facilities any place in town and nobody can stop it literally however reads the reasonable zoning issues you have to comply with like I just said its own you know lighting for our King green space and stuff like that inside the building obviously with the race under it a good real estate lawyer stop it I have no idea when she said anomaly I'm just curious you stopped a lot of columns Inc I mean you can sue anything how powerful it drives success is an issue as far as Zoning goes that's the complaint issues I think the issue here is the town is committed to proceeding with both projects so okay then we just buy 8 acres of Northland okay I do not miss them we've got them the issues talked about the lighting parking drainage the main ones now get it to the ones that most of these people hear about it at is the locational building versus the Legion our parking don't you think before we go any further plan that this plan is developed so we can see the entire piece we did talk about that they are going to be talking to the library I don't want this talk I want to see well come back if they're gonna come back we're not approving anything to hunt I remember that we're just talking about conceptual plans so that before they sink more money into this plan it's got to be put into the plan that works for the site both library wise and Senior Center wise and that's exactly what's here tonight obviously they're showing essentially parent if there's two different types of parkland being shown but again like the gentleman said they're talking they need to correct that and get the layouts together because one that one of these will work and one of these will both work for the lay-up they have and that's yeah that's for them to be determining that not us we're not designing it or just telling the concerns and mr. Bukowski my name's Smith mr. sorry mister you were talking about some stuff about the location - yeah just just bought 8 acres in North Africa it's a beautiful sight easily accessible population of Halle seems to be migrating towards North Ave there's a bunch of developments going on up there and I just think would be a great place for a building like this we're talking about three today so I'm gonna go fishing down a fishing license if you're over 65 by the ways and elder 62 or 65 [Music] you know still they can't give me a solid reason why that can't do it the soil kittens take it but I don't want to see them destroyed and I do not vote for that plan tell you right now without seeing I see no no you guys gonna go back to the drawing board you should have told town meetings and I and I was at that time I didn't hear nothing and it was your responsibility to tell the taxpayers what the hell you were gonna do to the Legion and you didn't do it and now we're here I do who's taking home late and what rights are you taking away from this Legion that to me is the biggest crock I've ever seen in this town the biggest you want to be ashamed of yourselves I'll tell you right now yes this building or whatever if somebody has something like that and white it'll be good to see I think the real issue here is and I think it's not going to be resolved by this board because this is Tom land nothing we can do we can prohibit or allow the use of that parking lot without the approval to select board so I think the select boards got to be involved in the design they're going to have to decide about placement and they're gonna have to weigh whatever benefits of having it available through to the Legion versus the senior centers so I think you're going to want to be using the public comments period of the select board meetings that will get you nowhere well we don't have jurisdiction to that we this is not our call to make whether that building to be put there no but we can sorry Carl to accept it or not accept it no don't tell me that don't tell me that you're gonna sit here and let them dismantle the American Legion and that's nice where they didn't say to the taxpayers in the community that we're gonna do this why don't they show that plan at Town Meeting and why did they say that and then on top of it I get I find this that they're soliciting money for all these things in that building when the taxpayers voted to buy it what the hell is this going on all right this is where zhiguli the site no I want to let the people know what they're doing and what their night that to this work for it yeah well us that's what that's where the decision gets made about whether it's going to go here or you're gonna go to the selectmen meeting I'm not I'm saying what I want to say here so we found out recently that there's weapons nursery east side is live so we consulted with the surveyor that did this site survey he hired a wetland consultant so we got an updated survey but there's a 35-foot wetlands buffer kind of no disturb buffer that roughly runs along this location here this again doesn't have the updated survey but that's just another part of the conversation in terms of when you start on adding impervious materials right now so on in that area but that right now that's parking lot yes that's exists no there is no a new construction so that's applicable to that but not applicable to what's there correct yeah right traditionally in these leaching catch basins under the parking law but there is an overflow component and it has to be directed into a screen where is your overflow component gonna be directed under your flood with all of this parking lots we're not engineers when the jib is you realize that eventually going to have to go through a peer-review engineering so this right here but no indication that you will take parking a lot away from the Legion you didn't say that how was that that Town Meeting you didn't be left that part out the most important practice you know you failed the townspeople this past summer and they asked that specific question where was the building going to go and I said there's a at that point we were forty foot buffer from the end of the east side and I said the building couldn't start people were there and the comment was well that's the overflow lot I said we're happy to make a segue from your lot from your law in two hours with a sidewalk so you can access the field that used to be the field but now will be paved lined handicap led with a sidewalk and the request was made well that doesn't sound so bad could it have lighting and I said I don't think that'll be an issue are you gonna supply your vehicle for them - these guys are older people I'm just acknowledging that a conversation was discussed was that there was a conversation about the loss of that lot and how we wanted to work to accommodate it they made a request for lighting that it that we heard them we made that attempt to do that so I had the discussion about it will just take coordinating the need for larger events and that we could make sure there was nothing else happening so they don't have the law it's the building committee out of it this is the only place this building any place in town in town that's a question that hasn't really come up the original conversation with the Council on Aging board when they were discussing whether the timing was right to go for a new Senior Center were adamant that they did not want to incur any additional costs for buying land that it needed to be on town owned land and this interesting lesson purchased so you have to worry about that part of it I understand and so the the suggestion was made at that point why don't we just go out to the field I think that if you considered other areas for Sibley the place of apprentice at North Avenue it's a much better site for a building like this it's going to be less cramped and less disruptive that's David Nixon did they purchase that land or not did they purchase the lane yes ma'am and I came here tonight to speak about the major parking lots but am I the understanding I should speak that with a selectman or one of you you can commit you can certainly speak about it place with this Ward because there are some selection in the representatives here from that board so they will hear you okay as I said my name is minimal ranch and I'm a full time realtor in the area also tenant of the American region last 11 years i rana dance every friday and also i rama dance for the senior citizens 15 our last three years in American Legion parking lot issue is very important to us it is not only to the Legion is also the people who come from community and have a good time in American region especially in our dances with the stimulus citizens which come they have to walk far away or the people who comes on Friday they leapt route 30 in American Legion and they have to go back to from the area you are showing there everything I think is a very dangerous thing dude we had a very hard time when they were fixing the road night we had a no parking space neither the leader neither there in my business and a business person also is running to dance and we had to help people that the park closed to Street which it was very dangerous for them across the parking lot so I'm thinking everybody has to take that as considerations this is we are doing for the community community of 200 surrounded area is not just Hadley the people comes to dancing and my senior citizens it's come every Sunday once a month and here at American Legion fun afternoon so I urge you take that a consideration for us thank you I don't know about the design however the Legion right now is a Senior Center virtually every member is a senior citizen there are very few non senior citizen they belong to the Legion back to life god bless the knees World War two visitors to the light and I don't know the right answer here I'm not gonna try to make do this do that except this to make these people walk across that sidewalk from the back side of the I'm going to call the back side of the of the Senior Center because of where the Legion is was that to the front side of the Senior Center to me seems strange but I also see the reasoning of the layout the way it is again I don't know the right answer but the library in the Senior Center definitely have to get together come in with one cohesive plan and is it a single parking lot is that a split lot because to make senior citizen legionnaires walk across that ere we go they're all they're going to be getting older got young ball not that maybe they're gonna be coming in younger but they're walking they're all wrong and the correct answer has to be somewhere in there and I don't know what it is but it needs to be designed to accommodate those concerns with minimal disruption to leave yes ma'am it also seems like you're asking for a lot of trouble to assume that this parking lot is going to be fully available for up big events because who's going to coordinate all of this is the library I'm gonna have to if you library has a big event and somebody else has a big event on the same night well then the Legion loses out or you know that it seems like you're looking for for trouble in the future in in all expecting they have enough room on it's like you're acting for the whole lot it's going to be available to everyone these are gonna think this lady here it's a key point there's no reason as we do in Florida to combine the library and the Senior Center because they both have community rooms they both have kitchen they both up and you could coordinate the use of the parking it's an excellent point I would just say one issue is the quantity of parking spaces week on the show on the span you said he is was that was a forecast I was done with an anticipation of enrollment with this newly designed Senior Center increase in people going to it so if we move that building then you'll have 40 spaces here 45 spaces here you still have the concern of you have X amount of parking with all these other library patrons Senior Center patients right position so I don't know that I saw you you look quantity of parking spaces one second I don't need them and okay so we're not gonna sit here and design it for you that's something you're gonna work out together I know they wanted to keep one main entrance Wow if it's that's too mean that's the only reason to keep one main entrance but allow some kind of split market not at all so that people can come in from each end of the building I don't know the right answer I'm not going to tell you how to do it I'm not going to say things all I know is that you essentially will have I go back to my first comment you put two senior citizens senior centers here whether we like to call or not you get the Legion and through Senior Center and they're both accommodating senior citizens essentially by design Legionnaires except for maybe a few Afghan and later vets the any Vietnam area vet is a senior citizen and anybody old and that is well into it and we're going to make sure that it can be accommodated by those people because it's a disservice to anybody if they can't use it I'll tell you one thing I talked to a member on a municipal building committee and they wanted that building put on that new land in North sadly there's putting in there'd be no conflicts there it's a nice setting and everybody would be happy they didn't slip no sub one and round what are they do the plan [Music] I certainly suggest that they go to the one in that woman they can put that building on that puzzle I just leave a lot of tension the library would never have any problems there region one much as we're trying to gather information here I know the building committee representing the seniors seniors Building Commission here with adamant it's only going to be for seniors right now the Planning Board is meeting in the senior sitting we've already checked with Hadley media they said it's a great room to be able to film in so we don't have any issue with that but Jim told me that you need to have access to your paper files in close proximity and what we don't have is enough storage for all of those so we've been working again with the library and others to talk about other scenarios for what's going to happen I know it's been several months not only once but twice this board vote to the sweaters not only what's gonna happen to this board and their plan move week to this day we still don't have an answer and this to me is just plain stupidity how do you plan something when you got a conservation it's direct Commission TV fine the Planning Board all these other ones that are in this facilities they're gonna smash the facility I'm gonna stand here and now scratch your head which way we go you guys know what you're going but you're causing all these other hardships for all these other ones hardship to Legion you're causing hardship to the Planning Board the TV flags everywhere and it's not your concern as the architect design Senior Center that has more of a public building built or public usage okay you ruled the Planning Board you can't accommodate it does that mean you can accommodate other for meeting in your you're adamant that the Town Meeting only for seniors in a very good occasional use in meetings no problem a permanent residence with storage is difficult to your advantage question we have made provisions in the water community you know there's a separate entrance so there's a way for the see if somebody walked down be secure and for that community where to still be utilized then where they want leaves whether tv5 they got records they got film Conservation Commission's records historic Commission that record where do they do carry it's not something that should have been always dog before you even start construction and doing anything else where everybody's gonna be placed but we are trying to be part of the solution from this project the region will have to go out of business and the talent is obligated to give us a room so I would like to have a room in Toulouse at your Center to and the trouble and all this is we don't have any information everything is kept to a secret we were supposed to have a forum a the architect they form do we ever have anymore none and then about the the Extension Center did half in the newspaper there will not be any Kirby well there's a there's a terrific put the sidewalk I believe and if not what about the burns that's a big they stumbling for seniors I did suggest that he could be leave 125 feet from the east from one sixth property and that will be a legitimate building lot for some Department in the future but and again and if nothing is done how is if the flow is traffic is going to be from yourself and if you miss I said oh tell me there's no more probably how do I get to the north side you can't go around the building and if you had this 125 foot there's spaces reserved for future buildings or at least at least that's a access parking lot for the library for the Senior Center and for the region is possible it is disgusting everything is a secret and for over seven million dollars imagine for smoke I like heavy and what do we get no a basement for our safe cellar Edward this is ideal Dylan place would be you know water table is probably 12 or 14 feet down we should have a cellar because I'll take that more Defense Department's do plan every death thank you know I think there's definitely some some misinformation here tonight first and foremost you need understand that Ford is responsible for the buildings it's not the senior building it is a senior community center that the taxpayers voted for let's say let's say voter to the library you know and we need to honor the wishes of the taxpayers I'm sure that there's some people in the room tonight we may not have supported these projects again we're proceeding in good faith of the will of what town will get voted but in terms of building use again that does stop with the Select board and it's not that we're ignoring the displacement of people but the reality here is there is some amount of time here before the ground was actually broken and certainly if there's a lot more time before the building is actually incredible right so we're talking a couple of years out here and in the meantime we have the Goodwood Memorial which thanks to the current and past library trustees is probably the best kept building and Hadley so that building will be vacated and that space then becomes available so we have asked the Municipal Building Committee to continue their good work to figure out how best to utilize the so you know I understand that some people may not be aware of that but they haven't had the conversation with the Select board my knowledge about it so rather than fill the void with misinformation I just want to make sure you understand that that's not being ignored and again I'm just gonna certain data and I are here tonight because we are representing the select board on these committees to make sure that there's cooperation thank you've been doing certainly want to take the legions names into consideration and I've never heard anybody suggest that they want to harm the Legion in any way but again we have taxpayers that voted for a Senior Center community centers and library and we need to take everybody's needs into consideration yes we subsequently have purchase Samantha North paddle I suppose that was a possibility that land was not considered but there were many many many many many others lots that were considered considered for both the Senior Center in the library this work has been going on for years now the student just happened overnight and I think some of you in the room I know can pay a lot of attention to it do you know that this didn't just happen with the book for the choir in the land happened the same night that this that should be revisited like I'm just saying historically here there were other persons along Route 9 that were considered but one of the primary considerations had to do with the bus line believe it or not not every senior who wants to go to a Senior Center has access to a vehicle can drive safely some of them take public transportation needed to be taken into account so I just Kenny I'm just how many seniors take public transportation buses to the senior like so but what I would ask is that I and from a select board standpoint we have a public comment period David and I at this point as long as I'm sure anyway we're responsible for setting the agenda more than happy to have folks innovation or anybody else come to the select 40 minutes to continue this conversation I understand what the point mr. Dwyer made but what I hope as we say that I will not tolerate running the meetings or any disparaging comments made against people these folks were hired by the town of Hadley I don't like sitting here listening to people be attacked for doing work that we've been charged to do I don't want to see our committee members being attacked again more than happy to have respectful dialogue I always listen to people respectfully by all means come to our meetings we'll make sure that it happens there I'm a little bit disappointed one thing about your immediate miss trimmin when someone goes in doing your public comment you thought there's never an answer on I'm sure I've been there several many times and I ask you guys questions and it was never an answer so you're telling someone else to go over there and talk to your your top section as far as I know there has never been a single plan to scale showing pulled components of this campus correct so looking at this my first thought looking at this is there is not enough parking shown to the library correct this is not two square feet apart before each square foot of floor area okay yeah Jim was just pointing out what you show as the westerly end of this site actually seems to come down the middle of this traffic lane here which means that the site may not support parking for both facilities yeah we'll find out soon enough though look at the boundary on the gorge where we re building but then I look at that that's we're careful right here yeah right yeah yes holster gifts so what we use super kind of our work zone is edge of existing pavement so we had like I said we had a survey done this line here the edge of the existing pavement so you know we want to told you know in terms of patrizii you send in a library project that the cutoff is actually you know we weren't aware that so this has been sent to them and actually today I got agita where that was overlaid on top of that you know that's what we saw there was a overlay with a row of art it okay so yeah I percent we're going to equate on all that and more importantly this does not appear to have commemorated parking and all so we now have we seem to be getting into a untenable situation if this parcel will not support both buildings I think that has to be resolved right because what the one thing that I would not be in favor of here as transfer development waste farm in London Todd wouldn't qualify in results but one of the things of transport development lights that we've always used is you don't need the parking I don't see any way these two buildings need anything except the two-for-one they need a lot of parking that I designed yep so it's not something that we can get away with a little bit less parking I don't think something right the function to senior editor that what these like you guys have this parking lot with well Tuesday night we had a meeting you have basically so a good it's now possible to your credit your events are well attended that's great that's what they should be however to make sure that you need to make sure that goes to the library if it's a success as it's supposed to be you know you're going to be it's not like you're gonna have separate time that you're gonna have an event and they're gonna have an event there's going to be many times where they're going to be at the same time so we need to make sure that the parcel supports both knees so yes that doesn't meet and there is you know say those plans went forward right so where they go well and into the event you could probably get into there is I mean I doubt the Legion would have an event at the same time as those other two opportunity they're gonna be use they're gonna be using the Legion parking um for that and you know that's we want to make sure of that everybody is a cohesive group here and that there's not a hard feeling well they took our party we took their party whatever the case may be because if we have to all work together as a team which we should be doing we need to make sure everybody walks away from here with as close to a win-win-win situation as we can get okay just in the quiz follow-up to what you just said it it seems to me I've been involved in town government a longtime town clerk for ten years and if it seems to me that Hadley is looking at putting itself in a position that doesn't isn't looking far enough into the future because these are three public service buildings they're there you know and what the seniors may decide this year they may decide differently next year they may order five years from now how they want to use their building and who they want to invite in and their public activities in all three of these buildings and the Legion does fundraisers they don't just have Legionnaires there sometimes there are public events that happen there and that's true of all of these can be true of all of these buildings there are lectures at the library that are going to bring a lot of people and just my thought is that that you don't want to you know shoot yourself but what is the phrase stick here you get your shoes jammed into the to tighter spot you know in terms of looking at the future you don't want to get jammed into only being able to cover what you can do today speaking of the future gonna face reality thirty years from now most of us won't be here the population currently is aging is getting over all over thirty years from now and probably have a younger population you've seen as seventeen this may be far fewer with a much younger population the Senior Center may not be used as a Senior Center thirty or forty years in our baby a community center which could see conceivably more traffic more events different certainly different events and that's something that we're going to make sure I'm not seeing we gonna design for all of sins we need to make sure that the parking is adequate for the future and today whatever that may mean you know we have a business that's overflowing on common property and these two big businesses the library that have programs they draw a lot of people the Senior Center has had to draw a lot of people's the American Legion draw people I mean even the Planning Board a meeting like this where do we go this thing is not well planned out now that the town has bought that property really you guys got a really seriously thought this lemon you would have the best of all worlds there you really want you got plenty of room plenty of parking the town can expand you could expand in the future no one can expand here even the land to the north of this they sent out an RFP they never proceeded they never made a counter offer it was landed that's not funny John grew tonight it's not 20 points them the only word that land can benefit isn't a butter is either said oh by the horns or or hear that I may have beat them self but it never was even negotiated land that with a rock climbing place West they want the land behind it it wasn't frontage land on the site the body for two or three hundred thousand dollars I got all that stuff you know doctor's office and there was no offers it wasn't that it seems that they never did enough exploring what it was the selectmen that did pursue it and what I heard even from you guys at that meeting there well as too much money was it ever brought to tell me no was it was it ever negotiated no and if it was we probably wouldn't be sitting here arguing we would probably be here altogether designing something that would work for all but not all the stuff was done the most impact importance right and the price is very very usable I would say and like you were saying why are we having this trouble everything is done like one person only and if it's hurt or else no one and we got any meaning to this what is the problem problems here we're going to be directing that life and stuff like that anything up there has been brought up okay so the architects and designers are going to be looking at something to work with the library Lita comment note the boys left any concerns make sure that a good solution comes out of this and anybody that's in the butter weakened being one of them what a public hearing is scheduled for this right and weddings and the week you will hopefully go to apply its members if you know any meetings and stuff like that that the public hearing is held with a site plan at Google special permits I think we're gonna just you get schematic of dropping that building up an albatraoz out of poverty and I'd be like [Music] okay this is going to be a first mission thank you right [Music] number two they didn't think they weren't following through on the implementation I ain't just for state attempt Direction good and recipes and for that reason they design mode this is what we're going to fit right really if they had direction right so really either should be a committee person okay person for the committee basically probable screw yes and a lot of the things in the master plan are not necessarily playing work I'm gonna play more but that was a point that I made how do we get all the board's to do something well I just talked about what you do except a committee take a look at the list of recommendations and whose umbrella may fall under the descent of a committee comprised of those entities some people each of those entities okay so there's no project specific terms of their area of interest and authority or you have a most time you've got yeah because to get a planning on just to do a master plan that's ludicrous yeah so what we can do though is we can make that part of the work program right Academy not so yeah actually I think one of your recommendation to get back so that we did then we implemented by directing you to pick the next time off yeah yeah remember leads a checklist okay and we sort of set it up like that with things that were low hanging fruit and stuff that you know we thought was underway there's quite a few things that are ongoing but the reality is you need you know somebody like which we're doing a lot balance it just really takes you off I could make a point of just have a master plan implementation as one of the items were every first yep okay and it'll be there it won't be forgotten okay and we should be able to get started that and if you don't have a committee which I need do that do that thing is just look at the recommendations find out which board is in charge of what and give that board that list it you say it's something you to do your thing was my only concern was getting that committee is we can't even get there's so many committee to the house that are looking for people yeah make their struggle to be on this one they used to who they were super they were super gung-ho in there not three people yeah they're super common hopefully the review and now because of lack of members we don't mean we can't even reviews that but you know what you ottoman and of also is like 17 people who are on all the wards yeah there you have the old peace person are like three three horns we could get members of these various boards on the committee but all that's doing is force people to go - meaning that they may not really want to go out of a them so so what we to do is take the recommendations and we can break it take it apart and kind of say this is what the Planning Board this is a selectable artists of the conservation commission and this is a star ball so under our word program which by the way we looked at the muddy movie we have not been tapping out the $7,500 contract so we can use some of that so why don't we just why don't we make that an item okay create that chart okay break that chart down by Department instead of by priority get it started very good who they need to start with that and see how that works out yeah I like that okay what's that 7500 left home every year we read the Koran go tell me we recently lost 75 hundred dollars to play for Jackie Larry's every stone and every year make a list of things that we're going to be doing this is now on that list exactly on the list move to the fat the bullets yeah you finally gonna win Jackie yeah well part of the reason that we didn't spend it all over the last two years was that we were doing so much work on the master plan and that had separate funding mister was a so me as a town media article so there were special circumstances I think we'd like to get back to the community what we're budgeting yeah okay okay senior housing oh boy oh boy there was two columns that you sent me but I don't see a difference in the two oh I hope one the senior housing almost inclusion Arizona no I both were senior housing well then I sent you once with that I looked at it but I put them side by side and they were exactly the same thing like this little else they specific on that one so I go ahead I and I did what was not inclusionary zoning okay I thought the shoe police I think you're right boy yeah okay so what we try to do and I are you trying to trick us okay yeah this is this I think build sort of initiated this was a really good idea because in fact is you're looking at this your senior housing overlay district actually is contains an inclusionary zoning right so you're right it just made sense to take it onto that making part of this disappoints yes so that's what I think I was able to do so that would be so pretty much do you go to the senior housing only district yeah what came out was really on the third page section seven five eight and basically all that coming out okay what we're adding isn't what is in yellow then offer the affordability requirement all projects must comply with requirements and provisions of section twenty five inclusionary zoning and all the stuff in here is now showing up yes a couple of things kind of duplicated so that was really the only change we had to me to the senior overlay district okay and so then it was just a matter of finding the place to plug it in and some of the other changes I made must remember we had the issue of the Housing Authority was supposed to administer this so we took that out and we put in that they've gotta hire some entity yes sir movie the hagakure has no interest and so we read in the inclusionary zoning it has been deleted yes including that so the Affordable Housing Trust Fund has been deleted yes and we also took out in under twenty five four three the Aleut payment provision so your options now are either to put an affordable component into your development yeah the right or someplace else like place it outside excessive proceed yes except receipt right I thought we might want to plug that in this time the idea with the 55-plus project is it's all that means going after Barry Roberts would not have the utility which have to physically provide for the affordable units in this project but he would not have the detainee provision the walk we took some of this money already okay Mary goes under the original developer so he's going to comply in some way she performed with the original zoning Bible yeah you've already saw the problem and I was hoping to have tonight because we did go through the certification training and actually eaten is our housing plan and she's could have even doing it she couldn't make it here tonight but I wanna have her here to talk about it to go to go through it so you can see what it entails yeah okay she can't make it at the next meeting the first of your life when we could make it the second video oh yeah you know if you have we have room okay I've got a switch buddy middle leg around let me do that okay so let me do that we went to AMS do any names yet Jessica Allen was here for a short time it's it's daunting and I was talking to mr. Rogers is a 13 Apollo if I ask them so what was it do you already started for this and I said I understand why it really is a lot of work no it was is rental units a lot easier than fritters not really because it's the it's the ongoing tracking life and this house responsibility to report it so you really have to pack this stuff if it's a if it's a like an apartment complex or kind of you know development it's so much easier to so Whitfield is our or comprehensive permit apartment complex was one of them the Winfield family apartments we should find out from them how the you're one of them yeah from the add several yeah you know Woodfield we have the one on campus Plaza road this box in China that's one if the housing that's already of course has a little bit your own golden corn Mountain things with this space it's cold so we got Winfield yeah what would be mistakes stop it show that's those are both not associated with the authority right but that you know these are little do want to talk to Winfield that was a planning board accepted voluntarily a forty be my shop all that let's start the show it was the most we have never been taken to to the cleaners schools of the cleaners it's just an outright lie yeah no that's that's something more to death we belong to Mexico okay so that's just okay whatever that's gonna be here in smart sleepers and in the meantime Marcus wait wait a minute right here what time I think we're all under review a what I need white police we want to have a lot going on there's anyone because the more I go through this and in my mind I try to take a natural project and walk it through and the applause you see today the conversation I was having with Ashley was the defendant of some of it okay so I'm gonna bail I'm going to get my subdivision it's gonna be a large enough that's going to trigger the inclusionary zoning but I'm not a builder so in fact all I do is I build the road myself a lot so I'm going to have to take you know whatever the number of plots are that I need to have as a Fargo if I have to put a deed restriction on those so do to begin with developer you became this see yeah but when the unit's aren't sold that I may sell the unit to use a builder who's gonna build mass spec refer client or I may sell it to you who is just a homeowner or a particular who I survived a lot Empire Builder to build it but I think you can see how it's getting a little funky because what if I don't find a buyer for those Lots and most inclusionary zoning bylaw our vision that says for every certain number of market rate watch you you build or use you develop you have to have developed X number of affordable Lots but if I don't find a buyer for this lot it's just a lot I'm selling an affordable lot how does that price up you better than the Spotted turn of taking lots away its choice in my mind is I work through projects it's easier to do for like a condo development or a parking copyright for a multi-family but when you're dealing with some provisions or we have one of the dozens of a NIRS which is even more interesting in terms of how do you actually make this work so that's one of the conversation I want to have we're going to be happy with the state so what it what would you do if that didn't happen so I want to find out with anybody in decent part of the state's run into that maybe we should think back to the housing I don't know if we're coming out well if we're cutting out payment in lieu yeah we're going in the wrong direction I think there are some times that don't deal with those lots are held indeed restricted for affordable lot right yeah yes so if the developer don't why can't the town will sell that did those of course we don't know yeah we don't know so what cuz he that the developer can't sell it anybody else that one right and but getting back to Bill's point you'll speak we hold this couple of Zoning positions kind of war yeah we have until April what to do to get this idea yeah we talked to Ashley on the 31st it's very easy to leave some of this were at the end that's right we don't have the trust fund we don't have the trust funds but the words are in there I mean work out the trust fund idea yeah and maybe we do it at a fall because I think to get the wording for that one for this screen town meeting is impossible at the training I went through which is what the trust fund Housing Trust would have to do it so nervous you know you have a lot of it's a lot of work I'm not sure I like the trust fund and you before yeah we have two thousand two hundred thousand units in total we have 280 units that qualify as affordable and we are at 13 percent it would take us 60 years at the rate of development we had to drop below that 10 percent threshold yeah why why do we have to rush into in occlusion arey trust-busting because you know very well that if all of a sudden we set some money aside and there's a committee they will demand that we start building more affordable units even though we may have thirteen percent exactly why why are intended to stick with inclusionary zoning now I agree that these are all good that's what I'm afraid of those difficulties we think we don't have the answer my opinion is definitely needs inclusionary zoning because it's poor planning if we don't teach ahead of the game the down on the site is like we we've learned from many many unfortunate incidences the deep devil is in a detail but let me tell you the details on this work are overflowing and we need to address it yeah the administration of it is a lot of work and I don't see how anybody can do a staff Whateley and Leverett did not know what they were getting into and they set up the trust why did they do it they want they want more hosting and that the only way they can do it because they don't have sewer but he said it's owners to manage the trust and it's got a little community smaller than athletes in the workshop we went to this is the workshop or two to the eastern part of the state not in the workshop so you're handed and yes yes and then they were there you can see they are doing much different type of projects they don't have projects like this coming before them so what they are basically doing which is relatively see things it was going to just cat financing to help underwrite you know people who buy homes in that time the affordable price it's not a lot of units that's not onerous would ask that what you're going to be doing where did they get the revenue well I'm not necessarily sure that we might do that that might be one of the things you do that's all I ever think we were talking like that I think I think the presentation is generous Larry slatted to the fact that you're biased against Housing Trust isn't it no you sure I think I see where we start this conversation up several months you know you look like snow miser don't you the only thing I always said what I've been consistent about what Housing Trust it is don't expect it to be successfully administer a bunch of volunteers right you are going to need a bath the same for the same cuts at the same time bleach which I'm going to get rid of that you could fund that trust for 5-10 years and not have to do anything with that market but and then this side the point the future that you want to do something what's this stuff not like there has to be continuously managed to implement put new awesome unit into town supposed to stop it that's correct but that's assuming that everybody's going to be putting money to the trust and in fact you're not going to try to do inclusionary you know the two the two projects that have come before us that are affected by it would like nothing more than to put money into fit for us right it's like what it's easier everybody who is come in on a PR because paid TDR has put money into the trust we have not had a single private TD art conservation transaction and you probably won't did the difference is the TV yard trust once is that be a web editor right it's very easy to administer and the people because it doesn't have the state it was some depth that's a homegrown topic right at the the most entrusted is a stated stake over so where's all cleaning fluids and regulations of repairs I showed you the DHCP manual that Roberts affirmed administering you know the keyboard with unit the county a our trust one is I doubt it's a page long it's that maybe a paragraph that put the money into what it goes into the town what the town eight they are fun mmm when they can make the art project the 8 figure issues done a PR details pull the money out under the eight PR guidelines which by itself is a big book right but the the fund itself in had the yes I think we have quite impressed with it if you would be is open-ended as possible we could do whatever we wanted to you wouldn't have to do anything with it if you didn't want to and nobody would have to manage it for a year four years ago who would be interested to see if that can be done because the state I believe the guidelines the Housing Trust required yearly before that that's correct but isn't that that you're using money from cpi-u Preservation Act no no I mean you our state statute that governs it regulates doing so as soon as you create a fund gets an annual report but I asked the woman that made the presentation over there at the bank center yeah that's you could put money in it and just kind of forget about it for a while she said yeah you don't have to do anything with it just because it's there mmm that's what you don't have to do anything with it you can let it sit I'm gonna send it to a bank account systems you need to be poured on it every year and there's a whole bunch of reports we need to get the details will actually know this kind of I'll ask okay that would kind of be the wrong message might work I think we'd be like extorting money from builder - well surely we're not well he's voluntarily giving it we didn't do anything with it if he did if we had a purpose for asking the money any well attorney this but if all of a sudden we've said you've got to throw this money in very good project for this thing can you come on I didn't die we won't be able to back yeah but we never gonna you know we need to get more we need to get you didn't send us that you even sent us them did you any we've got that we had this thing on the requirements are part of Wolf's order but all the this is that these the guidelines that you have to do you know - there's different religion up there that was appreciative of the presentation it is one of these could you just digit electronically Greece in yep the requirements reporting requirements on the housing trust please I thought I wasn't reading it - yep what believe it okay with the exception of obviously the question of the formal housing trust I think I wasn't conjunct here I think it works and it made sense to do it with that at the very least I think we could just yeah this one's ready to go to town we have to work knocking the coordinating the senior housing overlay district integrating that back in yes yes this yeah that was it that was no that's pretty simple now the question that we don't have in here is we know what affordable means hot other tells determined because subdivision undetermined we get to go back to the 40 affordable trust even if you go it's either do better subdivision how do you determine the affordable rate on a subdivision lot yeah and they supposedly the rule of thumb is you determine what you're a deficient for your median income is and then the rule of thumb is 30% of whatever your income is supposed to be dedicated towards housing and so that's how they determine you know what what is a pool what is the portable unit or whatever affordable more interesting we didn't talk much just a lot right on that because everybody's our upper down but in our area right there is a fixed weight on the median income but but it's basically Springfield and everybody else when that really skews the number that's right it makes our it deflates the number in this area considerably right all right so be it so let's just use 50,000 eighty percent of fifty thousand is 40 grand so 30 percent which would be 15 grand how about fourteen thousand a year about a thousand four thousand dollars a month towards your house it that's right now that's including your poster can't buy a house in a group I mean a lot in Hadley far above that yeah that right so the lot is going to be dropped in ice by a massive amount so they can afford to put a house son yeah that meets the having I think there might be 15 I think Larry I think number that a ballpark number that Barry was using about 1500 months yeah sucks like they just don't get 15 about 1400 0.9 which I mean that's that's that's about a $280,000 house or some ballpark figure that which isn't bad when you consider the price of a lot that's not that's a lot and the house yes yes a few years ago like coming up on ten years ago now I represented someone who bought a last block at one of the subdivisions off Shattuck bro he did get in a bidding war with the Builder one seventy nine nine and for about eight years that was the top price for a single building lot only what right now the town is assessing but I know this for a fact because I looked at recent land valuations for a different reason a 40,000 square foot building lot and Hadley is assessed at a hundred and thirty two thousand dollars yeah the assessment Talisman the dough again market I'm saying you defuse one hundred and thirty two thousand dollars at the mass of a building lot you could put off you could together you could have build a house and put it on there for about a hundred grand which is why it works a lot easier when you're dealing with or multifamily so it's almost like we have to encourage we have to solicit hundred percent affordable like the mom you that's I think capital owned if water workers have got habits now we bikers but that's a hundred percent of for now as opposed to Winfield which is only twenty percent affordable it's still qualified for so it seems like a better way that trying to shoehorn an affordable unit into a develop a subdivision is to go out and find basically a developer who will develop a hundred percent affordable well another thing is that's used at the north down the hall assume you could get eight apartments there if you put if you made two of those affordable and the other six market rate I believe that qualified under 40 V for all but eight watts as a four together on that on that very rapid can take all these units put all market value on this project here and use that to put his affordable and didn't take what's his name David what is something they should join us joints and use that who let them pay into that that is that is absolutely true and those are something that all I'm saying these are all possible and we need to explore them but that would be a positive thing yes because it would do a bunch of Whitman and we when you deal with it with a subdivision and you take a look at how affordable those affordable Lots gonna be going for that's going to jack up the price of all the other lives to make compensation because the developers not what is he awesome if he people off site then he can get his prime on everything but if he goes outside he still got the same issue with having to buy the land that seems to be or he can revamp the house to something else can you please sing apply it right yeah he applies a building laden we've got the yappy Saville I mean there's there's many possibilities we need to we need to more info on as a forwarding hug the details of the housing truck because I don't think anybody is another percent against it it's just that the unknowns are saying I don't like it and and maybe it's not a good idea I'm not going to deny that but we need to get the details to know because we have different ideas on is the only problem I see whether with the trust is just you need more in that thing is there any group in the state there's gonna be there's somebody let's see you got 400,000 trust one and you want to do nothing with it but what it's set now is there some group with a state that will do the report for us because we're not spending any money when it comes time to spend money that's different oh yeah they can say yes because you have to pay them obviously yeah in different class all right at all ten reindeer to payment might be worth it so I'm sure of it you don't mean for instance we are using a contract accountant for the town now and he has contracts with multiple other towns we do town the county you'd almost wonder if he couldn't do something like this yeah I can find out that that's exactly correct once we know what's required yeah can they do it because if we're looking for a result more actually we'll be able to talk about the reporting that has to be done if you know where the monitoring agent you know cuz I'm all I'm saying is if we intend to spend no more let's say for the next five years and we're just going to issue a report once a year by the state guidelines that shouldn't be too bad now becomes time to implement okay now when they do something maybe even then it's going to be less expensive too high okay we have we want to do this that might be another probably you're gonna retire rich what are you gonna do spend half the time with a young son in Mexico spending the cold weather with my young son in the warm weather would by the other side of my grandson public greenfield okay split might die okay I've got some good spots for you are more able to write off your across the border so we actually the workload has gotten really heavy we've got a lot of towns now that are doing this and so I actually convinced them to hire another lady's planner with municipal experience and so we've gone through that process what happened was we knew which breaks down my wife and I are out the shoveling we both go why are we doing this it was like that point it was glasses this is the last look there was good way yeah I think there's now the first of them was gonna have sitting next to me is now going to be sitting here and we can actually do be with a hired person named Susan she's not a musical planner but she does a lot of diligence and of development but she's also on the Planning Board to Storrs Connecticut so she will be we hurry but but on this the housing stuff is gonna be Ashley okay so you'll be wearing bringing interrupt introduced yes yeah she started about a month okay okay just a meter yeah good anything else oh I got some I'll go back take this back see you second meeting next month or do we not Wednesday right yes Ms for Oh someone's we have a contract we have a grant or something with someone else oh that's source yeah I'm going to imitate something conference is at the at the was hit the DPW DDOT yard yeah on the 20th okay that one's free I understand and then there's another stormwater course in Springfield that I'm going to ya the 28th I think it is okay with 75 bucks we're all about a mister that amazed me mister ameta for Dennis Moore yes is the new stormwater standard go yes Jan so I was working with Marlo and David and corn on I think she came up with some recommendations yeah she started to get it integrated and coordinated with all the permitting the question was whether we try to fit that in for the spring man or fall and there was some question about whether ms4 was going to be deferred or delayed they keep doing that let's to the pleasure of most communities has taken them a while to you know don't work today I know that there's right now the saying that they want it to be implemented this summer yes and what little I've been able to gather this is one complicated bunch of stuff and I will see how any way to do it it's going to negatively impact communities more than developers yes yes they're starting from scratch it's pretty easy to accommodate but if you're picking a road you already got and you're lightening it or something now you've got to make some major adjustments to the historic management if I haven't already I will send along Corinth recommendations I did something about it she kind of said to hold off right now this is a big yes just just the record-keeping there's all kinds of GIS mapping required and all your outfall gonna--you're oh my goodness well why didn't the DPW and would not would not be qualms we're not going to be doing the GIS that's again the other stuff all I'm saying is it's a huge task yeah well there he says for the town Harley are required our part of it is really the zoning issue updating our zoning bylaw but for the height of the DPW Department to comply with this way ya know that's equal to every department employed on this they couldn't get it done for some profit appropriate use uses the word another slurry so we'll be looking at updating our stormwater management again and maybe some changes to subdivision regulations possibly they would probably get tasked with doing this I don't think when he went into the jig of Iowa for the simple reason of the general by law was written so that nobody would be grandfathered right but going forward you get a compliant rezoning yeah yeah whatever the way I do it is I would I would have to scroll my regulations adopted as a separate document that all the other ones reference and include subdivisions if you wanted to apply to subdivisions as well you know yeah so the subdivision still wetland permit still the only special permits do pretty much everything does so would you just touch base with Cora and Jerry and see where we are yeah just just just see if the recommendation she's making are consistent with the recommendations or the recommendations you just laid out I didn't that's not how I understood what she was suggesting but I may have just good very good thank you very much very stay warm all right - okay we got a fielding Hampshire because that employs to pay for her 185 16 for the public meeting known as they put on the reference so most second well that was for the dual public reading we held at the end of January for the home occupation no for the process the apartment and Gelinas is some of the rhythm and Bible Wow yeah yeah yeah home favor anyway post motion passes and we go [Music] Chili's Chili's gave us this for their sign they want to reap us out the building they're looking for the sign details and then get rid of the sign details we have to sign another building one in the front basically where they're signs now they're just going to duplicate them again it's a courting a lot yeah and they were looking for me to approve it the nice is no they we get to the board I'll make a motion to approve the facade change second we have a motion a second all in favor aye any opposed motion passes unanimously thank you that John did get some accessory apartment bylaws from Northampton Amber's yeah and they have a detached accessory apartment owner occupied the Northampton one has a maximum there's 800 and 900 with with accessibility nice okay go ahead there's a 900 square foot maximum apartment size of accessory apartment Amherst has a minimum of 350 and a maximum of 800 but you take and only nine on it by making it oh yeah okay it's a minimum 350 maximum 800 with a bit handicap there's an 88 compliant they can go to 900 that takes care of the minimum square footage construct 350 is uh that's almost that's a that's a 12 by 20 building roughly a mom I think is concerned about accessory detached is the tiny house I have on the consorted with it what I think three well why should it be so small like that well 350 is whoa no I won't be doing something like 400 or 500 500 they didn't talk at a twenty by twenty five twenty by twenty five builders I don't know that something has the building inspector I asked him about that is there any state lotteries didn't know he might be last about why does it deserve there's a state law on minimum pulse sizes it's called snob zoning but they're looking at usually those haven't addressed homes that are like you know know how small the 1,500 to 2,000 square feet well we're not talking anything in that paint range we're talking much smaller yeah I'm curious I mean permits are asked for every year like this you have to relax whoa yeah I'm just curious well they also because the both of these terms a while apartments white right I'm going to guess they have very few accessory apartments requests this you know I just think this that's how this is going to do it so long someone that's elderly that can't afford to stay in town to do something like that to live into a smaller thing or in rented you like they can't afford to live here then they're gonna happen take a mortgage out there though this place take take it and either village joint is a very good point it's building an accessory apartment detached work especially converting a garage detached is going to be considerably expensive per square foot it's going to cost more than a big house just because you got to put the interest you got to put plumbing you must wear foot in the larger houses foundation a septic system report a septic system so that's not ideal or the expensive cuz then you gotta convince a converted to be comply with Building Code no matter what you don't I mean they come in for a necessity of right now they have to comply with all that well not necessarily they with the cell is not necessary if you have an existing house that big enough a lot of them some of the accessory apartments we've seen all they have to do is put a kitchen yeah but a lot of them he came and then they asked then they built the whole big addiction that is correct right so that's like just building a whole new government I mean your thing is I don't think you're gonna fly in here people converting a garage you don't know because you didn't you ain't got that opportunity for them to do it well figured out financially was like wait what the hell's he know about building people can my finest assist if people can't afford to live in an alley they probably won't have enough money to take out a bank but it wasn't the waste if they did why would they want to do that no way to test it what I want you to take out wonders is that mortgage where you could do much money to give your people the option to do it they can run the economics yeah you're right you put you in history thank you and thank you John this is almost like this one [Music] you [Music]

running he's gonna rest it many times okay a story you'll see only on six a prank landing a South Florida stuntman in trouble with the law and today Batman explaining why he's taken up swiping stuff from local eateries thank you for joining us again I'm to one straight and I'm Jackie Ness brawl that man who appeared before a judge for stealing from a Dunkin Donuts spoke only with NBC six today about his risky hobby let's get right out to Michael Spears of Miami Gardens with that social media set man's story Michael well Jackie Chuang that now viral video of him taking the tray of doughnuts this is where it happened it happened behind us here at this Dunkin donut to Miami Garden off of Northwest 2nd Avenue it happened back in May but this video now making rounds and we reported on this yesterday regarding his first court appearance now this is a stunt that landed him in jail but in an exclusive interview with NBC 6 earlier today just a few hours ago John Hill jr. said that he's not a that he's not done making videos and he's going to continue moving on John Hill jr. turned an online following into viral fame recording stunts that have racked up millions of views on Instagram alone like this one of Hill hopping the counter and taking a tray of doughnuts from Miami Gardens Dunkin Donuts as workers watched a stunt that sent him to jail I call it bumpkin because you know I'm running off 20 year-old spoke exclusively with NBC 6 after his arrest and I got arrested it was people it was officers they knew who I was Hill said police picked him up after the video on a warrant for burglary and theft charges he told us some people have questioned whether his videos are real all my video isn't real the thing is that is is the reactions I get other videos posted online so he'll running off with a dog watch someone's iPhone and slip-and-slide stunts inside stores videos that he began to generate buzz for a rap career is a publicity stunt so now that I got now that I got up there now I'm trying to get my music back in but it's not all lights from everyone in bond court his attorney said taking a tray of donuts that he eventually gave back wasn't smart to each his own all that hate that I receive is on the Internet Hill said he's learning how to avoid trouble while still making viral videos and he doesn't plan to stop but recently bunk was seen on camera basically trying to beat up a cameraman I say basically trying because literally he had more hits hit the air then actually land on the damn cameraman okay so he's fighting this cameraman he's caught himself beating his ass and of course the video goes viral all over social media so now him and the cameraman are both trying to explain their sides the cameraman is saying that he did nothing wrong punk is just crazy punk is saying that the cameraman disrespected him and ain't nobody gonna disrespect him so I want you guys to go ahead and watch the fight watch the back and forth between him and the cameraman and then I'll let you know who I'd am believe okay go ahead and check this side i'ma come back with the rest of my commentary I get up walking out I say hey man you need to lose your attitude he said you lose your attitude I said you know what I'm talking to me crazy he said I could talk to you like he's I could talk to you however I want to talk to you so then that's when I that's when I wrote that talk with my hand in his face I say hey man you gonna watch it'll keep talking to and then he pushed me he said I could talk to you however I want to back up and I shoved my hand in his face I keep shoving my hand his face I say bro watch was talking to and he's still running his mouth so then he got so he got them poles put on as a young director I never thought I would be subjected to this type of treatment I have the utmost respect for all artists and I'll do everything in my power to capture their artwork it's my job I'm a director I direct I would never tell a musician how to play their instrument it's sad that we have some artists out here that you know we would call clout chasers they'll do anything to draw attention to themselves instead of you know perfect their craft and make the career last longer constructive criticism should never lead to anybody getting physically harmed this is just if I reacted the way I reacted for some clout you know I'm sad cloud chasing out of posted the video myself you feel me but I knew all that I did all that cut a [ __ ] disrespectful you know I'm saying I'm a grown-ass man I'm not going to let no other man disrespect me no and I didn't even know I've been recorded at the time North Anna I know I know about all that too after the fact the only thing running through my head is this [ __ ] keep on talking to me like this in front of all these people I'm f---ing smack the [ __ ] up out of them no I'm saying but I'm done all right so you guys just saw the fight you guys saw their bathroom fourth you guys heard what the cameraman had to say yeah I heard what bunk had to say so this entire situation is a hot damn mess okay first of all bunk needs to be prayerful that he's even famous okay the fact that he became famous for [ __ ] [ __ ] for all the stuff he was pulling down to Florida it just amazes me now what I find funny is that bunk has the audacity ok the audacity in my damned rape voice to be in his feelings okay to be in his damn feelings honey once again like damn Drake over the camera man supposedly disrespecting him this is a man who has disrespected innocent people innocent businesses time and time again looking for nothing more than social media fame and notoriety make the [ __ ] make sense to me please let me know how it is there's somebody who's so disrespectful to other people okay and he used other people's reactions to get famous on social media how can he then in turn get mad at the fact that he's being supposedly or allegedly disrespected by the cameraman well now maybe bunk you know how other people feel when you're out there disrespecting them disrespecting their businesses still in their cell phones and running still in their Donuts you know I'm saying doing all types of stupid [ __ ] to make yourself trend on social media maybe you're getting a small taste of what those people felt okay and that's what I call damned Karma I don't feel bad for him at all cameraman stupid as hell for just sitting there letting boom kill him okay even though he missed out of the damn 10 hits he only landed two out of eight but still the cameraman should have dropped the damn camera and whupped his damn ass right back okay if you're gonna get me i'ma get your ass back all is fair in love and war any damn ways this entire situation is a hot damn mess I can't take Punk seriously I don't believe his story he probably did the [ __ ] and half the [ __ ] film just so he could go viral because a lot of folks ain't really fooling with him no more nobody's checking for him he got his Instagram account tooken away you know I'm saying when he started having live sets on Instagram live so you know he's trying to rebuild his fan base and I would not be shocked that this was planned maybe unbeknownst to the cameraman but I would not be shocked I don't put anything past boom he's claiming he didn't film it you know he didn't plan this he didn't know was being filmed this is the same man who has basically made a career out for pranks and you know [ __ ] with people watch it yeah you need to pay [Music] boom guys okay I don't believe nothing that comes out of damn bunks mouth okay this is the same man who says he's not black he's Dominican and white okay he doesn't even claim being black he says he's Dominican and he takes the dreadlocks out his hair you guys will see that he has good hair a lot of people think I'm black but I'm not black my mom away my dad a Dominican that's why I got a whole ass white name not [ __ ] my full name is white is [ __ ] see if I

Mean Girls on Broadway Interview | Popdust Presents
[Music] hi everyone its Megan here from POTUS and I am very excited because we have the Mean Girls on Broadway cast or some members and the Mean Girls on Broadway cast we have reason I got Hoshi and teach Manohar here who plays Kevin Jie and Sophie Kawachi reason who's like Sophie Buchi who I didn't know this until just like a few seconds ago but actually dates Kevin G so so did you guys was that like written into the script or is that something that you built over time into your characters it kind of builds up yeah well there was in DC we had our out-of-town production in DC and we had a lot of previews there and during previews the show can change a ton so we would have rehearsals during the day and the mood of the show at night and they went through a lot of like different iterations with what should end up what Kevin gee should end up as like yeah there was a time where they thought you know maybe Kevin she ends up with Gretchen there was a time where they thought maybe Kevin she ends up with Janis like he does in the movie but during rehearsals we had kind of come to this joke that like Sophie Kawachi and Kevin G should end up together because they're dicks like nerdy and they get each other and we know come up with this joke that they were like really this awesome stable relationship and then when you move to Broadway like when we were in rehearsals we kept getting paired next to each other during blocking yeah all of the scenes like all of the scenes everything Halloween Spring Fling and classroom scenes and we just kind of decided to play more to go with it to run with it and so I think our director took notice Tina Tina Fey our book writer took notice and she she was like yeah let's make it a thing so we end the show together at Spring Fling and it's lovely it's a really nice Bangkok I love that I love how something can build like so organically into the story and help you guys yeah this is like amazing yeah it's so normal normal high school place that we should be getting into like Sophie and Kevin just communicates so much early they're like each other and support each other it's like actual a couple really that's correct do you guys hang out a lot when you're not working I mean we go out sometime we're not too tired and I mean I think the last night Patrick yeah the are well our cast hangs out a lot together every like we are a really sociable cast and we're lucky enough that we all get along very well yeah yeah and so it's nice every once in a while we'll all go out we'll do some together look at it drink together well our director Casey he threw a book party for us so we all got to like hang out on a boat together and unwind after and like go along it was cool yeah and so this is you're both of your Broadway debut yes very cool so Riza how did you fall into the Mean Girls well it's been a long journey start up I'm I'm not from the US I'm from Japan and ever since I was little I knew I wanted to do years ago I wanted to pursue this career and want it to be a Broadway that's like yeah like I love do musicals and at some point maybe like middle school I realized oh I need to be able to speak English to be on Broadway yeah I was like oh I should I should learn the language so I left when I was 16 and just kind of by myself wait so how did that how does that work like what did you do how does that work that's a good question is another question I would also like to know the answer to this yeah well I graduated from middle school and I just found this plic art heist Performing Arts High School in Canada uh-huh that would take foreign students just not exchange program just kind of like oh well we went from anyone Wow so they took me and I was living with a host family and that's where I kind of forced myself to learn the language and also learn to dance more and mom and by the time I graduated high school is when I had enough English in my hand to go pursue more musical theater in America uh-huh and then I went to college for it and for musical theater uh-huh by the time I graduated my English was good enough to pursue Broadway and Mean Girls I mean I would have never known that you wish is your second language yeah you're totally passing on an American like a starting to pick up a little bit of grammar mistakes now and yeah like we have like idioms like we I was explaining the reason the phrase cut a rug the other day here at the Halloween party in our show and I was like I saw you cutting a rug out there I was like talking something like Marley right now but every once in a while there'll be a like a cute little thing like that we have to explain a bit like reasons were terrible it's truly like hearing her story is absolutely mind-blowing that's how I got here kind of very cool congratulation on a small feat yeah of course and we'll cheat I know your story but because of videos it's actually I've watched on you but if you wouldn't mind just kind of recapping how you got involved and Mean Girls and what that process was like and you're auditioning well when so me girls did this thing called a lab which is when you put up a musical in rehearsal space and then like invite all the money people to it and minimal sets minimal props just to see if it can be a thing and when the lab was happening I was still in school I was a senior at Syracuse University and so and so I when I graduated at school I was living in New York because he refused to lose all of its students to New York by their long semester and I found that they were recasting Kennedy and I was like all right I am NOT Union experienced but the audition calls said for someone that was funny and could rap and was Indian or Pakistani and I was like I am all of those things and so for my audition I rewrote the Fresh Prince of bel-air theme song but I made it Indian I like walked into that with my little parody rock Wow open call I like signed up at the list at like 7:00 a.m. to like get seen and then from there they asked me to go to the dance call to see if I could dance oh and then after that it was like nine callbacks in three and a half weeks I think what happened is because I was in I was fresh out of school and they knew that I think there was a look like is he going to be able to prove to us that he is able to handle this amount of pressure and if we get him notes and Corrections like is he gonna come back and is he gonna get better and is he gonna be at that level so it was a it was a nerve-racking three weeks but I found out that I got Mean Girls for the DC and Broadway productions about a month out of school wow that's crazy start yeah the whirlwind of the year I like to joke that Mean Girls is my fifth year of college yeah kinda I do because it's you know basically you couldn't look back you know graduated college yeah that's awesome so you were rapping before Mean Girls um I grew up well I was I wasn't actually born in the United States either I was born in Australia and then I moved to Pittsburgh at around the age of six we moved right around the time there was like this huge underground rap food was happening in Pittsburgh like Wiz Khalifa is becoming a thing Miller was becoming a thing like ah my brother actually like graduated from school with Wiz Khalifa it's like very funny but like so I was invested in this like hip-hop and rap cultures when I grew up listening to a lot of 90s R&B early thousands rap like a lot of that music and so it's always been my favorite thing to listen to and I just never thought that anyone would let me do it I just I mean I don't necessarily look like a person who would enjoy you're out / rap you know what I mean but well there's definitely like a movement in the American theater that's kind of thing like wait this is you know this is America rap music it's a huge part and it's starting to be utilized and you know live performance and theater and so this role your role is you know pretty iconic in that way really you know it's also exciting that it's the first non accented Indian character on Broadway which is like really exciting yeah which is like really exciting yeah for me to be able to go like wow like this is a fully-fledged in the invincible character that like doesn't have an accent yeah yeah it's amazing yeah it's pretty cool it's nice that we're able to like take the step forward with this show and our show is incredibly diverse yes yeah I'm talking like shape size color background it looks like a real American high school crazy I've been to any of like I'm not playing this Asian girl I'm just playing me but I'm just in the high school yeah so great and like so liberating yeah create the character of my own in my own way that's wonderful I mean I I have to go see it um it's it's definitely kind of making a name for itself and in Broadway history and that's I'm really happy you guys get to be a part of it let everyone at home watching know how they can follow you on Instagram Facebook Twitter if you have any shows coming up obviously you should go see Mean Girls on Broadway but if you have any personal plug you can follow me up at reason takahashi on Instagram and I think as Twitter to either certainly they do too and for me you can follow me on instagram @ @h manohar and they a no har and then on twitter at mac and cheese yeah mac and cheese I started doing a daily haiku they're all funny there are good times it's a good time so can you can you share with us oh yeah okay yeah he's fair this is one of my favorite ones that I've done so far taking a shower oops I forgot my towel Reluctant nudist Cillian punchline e'en like dumb we've all been there like it's never relatable yeah so when you do you write that in the morning like when you're usually like wake up it's usually just a way to wake myself uh-huh and because there's something about like having to focus on like counting the syllables and like being funny that like just gets me in a good mindset to like kind of start the day plus it like it's kind of nice to it started to become this thing that like people recognize now like people are starting that we need the stage

Women Want The Disrespect | No Means No | The Outlet Ep. 4
[Music] is not [Music] i'd have paid to come see y'all yeah honestly but our god sister we made a mistake of adding people that would be part of our family oh that was the mistake um you know how'd that go [Music] they started adding their opinions like bruh i'm 12 years old don't tell me no stuff like that yeah you thank you hey look you did you're so good today yeah if i really tell the story how that worked yeah yeah i love her she was really younger i would love to see that [Music] but i was one of those i was a runner so we did a lot of fast fast she's a runner she's a track star huh so you're already down the court i'm already down the court that's your man that's my favorite thing going yeah our our team was comprised of people ran track oh that's dangerous y'all pressed the whole game what yeah what oh you're the athlete oh i'm running you don't even have to be skilled you don't you don't need all the skill all the superstar player if you got some jokers that can run yeah anticipate what and make a layup and then that's it that's it that's it i don't need no shooters like if you can finish it around our shortest person was the point guard everybody else five eight so let me tell you one thing you got to have is a coach our coach was cool but pressing on the players to be totally team always even in those those moments because you allow your ego she had people that thought they was better than what they really was right so if you have someone telling again this is the thing where you let outside people mess up your relationships and sports is the worst place to do it in the world right see and this is kind of can correlate to the whole dating thing like when you let outside people dictate your relationship with your team it can mess it up so that's what happened we lost we we we could have won our local championship but i got fouled out like the ref it was it was crazy but the even the reason we got there was because the relationship between me and the point guard they just fed into her head like you better than her the only way she'd get these points is because you know you giving it to him like hey that's how it goes like that's basketball right and so that was just always the thing like i think after i had scored like 52 points uh one game whoa [Laughter] my coach made me stay in so i can get like that's your career huh yeah she man that's more than me about had the season [Music] granted the team was like not that great other thing y'all planning to get special olympics one no how about difficult good yeah but that team was like yeah not that but still coach your coach green is hell for that to leave yeah yeah and we [Music] are female bus o'clock female oh yeah she played yeah she was like no keep shooting [ __ ] i was tired too i'm like hey i mean you know what they say bro it ain't my job the other team's job to stop you bro yeah because somebody complained about us yeah they couldn't stop i mean take your starters out man hey man i'm tell you this right now if it was us on the other end you wouldn't be saying that no they were mad about that they couldn't stop me they said go out yeah hey man welcome back to the outlet what's your boy filo man got b homes ive in the building hey man we just kicking it um yes i think i think i just wanted i think i just wanted us to give us another shot like i know the first episode like everybody kind of loosening up and trying to get a feel for each other but i think listen these things gonna get better and better better better and better and we need we need y'all to keep sharing man keep liking keep subscribing comment all that good stuff uh we gonna keep it coming i think today's episode is for those people that borrowed something and never gave it back and had to sell it um okay some people um yeah we're gonna speak today episode is also for those people that's been in somebody's house and you put a booger on a wall and yeah come on they got hard and uh come on please break that down you ain't never did that no wait you you need to do that oh oh you put the book yet though you didn't you didn't got a book out and put it a flick [Laughter] hey man check your wall you think that's paint chipping a little a little knot that's a booger that's been up there for years oh my god stop the booger crew ain't what about at school what do you mean what about this you never just got found a booger put it on the desk on the wall not that i can recall no um yes that's so embarrassing and then you have to stay in there yeah try to work it's one thing to have it's one thing to have the plunger that can go over the actual hole but they got these new plum plungers that's like it don't fit over the hole so when you press it down it's so thick like the water go to splash and it's just i didn't get into some bad situations and hey i had [Laughter] hey got to see you through my boy i see it too what everybody you already know yeah yeah yeah the food the food ready all right everybody gotta do what you gotta do where's this going i don't know i just i feel like those kind of people you know that this podcast well this episode is going to be for um so yeah today and that's why i were on the show can see the see the relationship guru [Music] expert build up enough story i was gonna say i say that being a petty being real petty you know no i don't think none of us really got it figured out but that is there is a certain level of understanding to gain from being in some bad situations yeah you only gain wisdom though when you actually learn the lesson because some people could just be what's what's the quote wisdom is knowledge applied knowledge applied and understood i ain't understood can you apply something without understanding it yeah you can he said can you apply something with that yeah so if you if you read about fixing a car you think you can go out there and do it if you don't have an understanding of what you read depending on what you're fixing because i know people that can follow directions step by step so if it's that if it's that simple you think you still have to understand it yeah i think so yeah yeah cause i mean yeah you can mess up something maybe now you only get one time all right that's pretty complex a car is pretty complex that's what that's how relationships are that's gotta understand it yeah but no i just from our friendship and conversation it's like yeah like you i ain't gonna say you wanted a few but you would you're a friend that i would consider like wise when it came to relationships and a woman truly like being able to see both sides of things all right and that perspective is it that we talk about that all the time that perspective perspective changes the game when especially when it's when it's both people that understand it i really think that's yeah the recipe for like something to flourish i think that just came from me being i think being a tomboy really works it worked in my favor i've never been on the female side yeah just on the female side i've always been a tomboy so i hang out with fellas learn their ways learn their habits a triple threat that's a trivial threat you know did that for years how are you able to skip skip over the bs that you probably heard as you are you know like developing these relationships with guys for the women that's like look at her i always hang with him like when you know you got genuine like brothers that you surround yourself with like how you skip over or not or not be concerned about this image that people might put on you like look at her like she always hanging with the phone well i think what really worked for me is like i didn't realize like i was like attractive until i was 25. so if you would have seen me before 25 like cornrows yes yes yes that movie it's kind of it correlates to my life so they didn't see me as a threat yeah they yeah they didn't see me as a threat they see me as oh [ __ ] cute girl but she liked the homie yeah so once i like couldn't play ball no more and i like switched over a little bit that was like oh oh wait a minute wilson no my senior i went by myself my junior year i went with a friend but i didn't know he liked me until like later but it's always so awkward no but he wasn't like he wasn't my type it was my time but my senior i went by myself because the guy i was talking to at the time he had a baby on me yeah oh no he was on his phone yeah yeah well all right no i mean don't look at it as like a bad thing i literally was not wanting honestly truly a relationship at the time i felt like i'm about to go to another city state and i'm gonna find my my whoever there i did not want to get stuck in waynesboro so it was more so me like satisfying peer pressure of like you supposed to have a boyfriend so yeah so i and then i was like abstinent and like church girl yeah so when i met his mom like i went to meet his mom and she just looked at me and she was like you are way too good for my son and i'm like whoa really damn mama she's like you're the first girl that's come to my house appropriately dressed without a booty short song you stayed in the living room yeah stayed in the living room appropriately dressed i was yeah i was like go to old school church girl dress dressed like a church girl but she was mama you know those clothes do come off all right that's just how she came in no she knew i wasn't coming for that because i didn't go to the i didn't go straight to the room like i stayed in the living room i was super polite i never even wanted to go in that direction that's real yeah is it yeah i think that's real i mean especially anybody can do that once man look well that's the only time i went i didn't go back she told me to leave her son yeah she was saying first and imprisoned everything right like man cause i mean if i come to your house straight to the room oh man i can hit my mama now don't piss the tail girl [Laughter] you can't tell me your your parents wouldn't have been impressed by a female who comes in she's appropriately dressed she doesn't go straight to the bedroom whatever she comes and speaks to everyone have conversation with everybody and just you know what i'm saying like my dad didn't meet no strangers anyway so whoever it is he's coming to talk anyway even if we are sitting in the living room hey young lady mm-hmm yeah he had been here having a conversation like my mama i don't know what she used to be doing she probably had decided like it don't matter what you look like okay i think moms are like that anyway they're very protective of their sons yeah very protective yeah she just she's she said no i'm too scared anyway i won't take nobody in my room with my parents home i didn't know i've never brought a guy to my house i just feel like if i got a sneak to do it i'm not doing it like it's not worth it to me being that i'm not even going to keep you around anyway because i'm going to leave thanks no i didn't want anybody from waynesboro i think no offense to them no offense to them i love all my wayne's real folks but during that time it just seemed like the men there get stuck in small towns yeah that's stuck mentality and i saw myself doing bigger and greater things especially like for our community a lot of us wanted to show like people from small towns can do great things so hey we doing it man yeah small town we are doing it listen our city don't end with veal or burrow but it's small like that but yeah i always say that's how you know it's the country if we got a veal or burr yeah a dead giveaway just put whatever you want in front of it brian burrow yeah brian what what's the name of your city selma oh oh what's up is not like small is it small i've been there it's it's it's country it's small it's small but it's it's not how long did you go i said that like it got bigger [Laughter] oh maybe like 20 15. because we did i was doing the gospel tour with um ucf and i think oh they stopped there like one of the black churches they're one of the biggest black churches there brown chapel i i can only think of probably about the uh jubilee they had a whole bunch of people come in around that time yeah that is about the only time i think so i said one concordia she said biggest church tabernacle i'm not gonna lie on saturday you don't have video you don't have video footage i know i don't think so oh god you weren't using ucfar i directed for a short stand yeah oh yeah i know okay i didn't know that that short short step wait i think our city i think my city's smaller than yours it might be i'm talking about like you drive through seven minutes you're that's it that's the city that's eight one traffic that's i'm in traffic like no it's a few it's a few because because they're making it like the way to get to like savannah they making like shorter ways to get to the highways and stuff so yeah they cut through there now i'm in the shears police one oh yeah [Laughter] everybody knows middle school one elementary school um one high school one hospital best seller yeah one doctor i mean if you really think about it like everything else is it's the same county but actually in silver it's it's one middle school and one high school seven little so huh that's it but people know something i have to explain like where waynes were you'd be surprised it was until that movie came out really i would when i first moved down here and i would tell people where i'm from they had no idea salem that's selma where is that i have to say near montgomery oh i know what that is [Music] it was just like i don't like the movie i'm like bro but if you knew your black history month but that put me on to what was happening here with the education uh history like they don't learn them as much as as much as people that live here you would say like they're southern florida florida ain't considered the south no it's not i'm saying and so like with them not including martin luther king and that sort of stuff in the curriculum we're like it makes sense like it's so it's so it's such a melting pot here like you know they hear about we're the minority everything else we are definitely from this next year so yeah get into it what are we talking about i mean excited let's dive in let's go so how important is the first date who we start with know i'm thinking about that what he said with the first impression yeah like and i guess that's that's high school so that's different the second layer to the question is really where i want to go like all right like how much is how much should be put on the table in terms of who i am in that first date simply because i don't like wasting time and if it's a situation where you put something out there and there's no secrets like between you and i at that point like we have we have everything we need to make a decision like do we want to keep going or is this it or should we just be friends like i think it's a lot to learn in that first like conversation that could kind of eliminate all the fluff and and well is this happening on the first day or you just said all right so wait go back let me go back because i have to i have to decide is this first date the first time we've had a conversation no okay so that can't be the case right so we were talking on the phone we we've had to be talking on the phone before a date can happen anyway depending on who the persons are because some people can do a couple of conversations and then go and some people oh yeah well some kind of conversation before right but you ain't just jumping out and let me take you out i've been in that scenario really yeah i told you i have a really extensive history with dating but you'll be open to that you meet a guy out somewhere and he says hey elevate your number so i can say hey look i'm gonna get off i ain't got time we're gonna go on a date later [Laughter] you'll do that i have i mean i have will i do it now like if i wasn't in a relationship um no because i've had the experience uh with it yeah but it could be a different person no no because i'm i'm so considerate of people's time and their money and i would like to do conversations prior to so you can know if it's worth the investment you know because i don't want anyone to feel like they invested so much in that first date and then it didn't go anywhere so they feel like they wasted their money and i don't want no one to feel that way about me so i'd rather let's have a conversation see if there's some type of common ground some attraction there and then if you still feel that way like if the lust has passed with you just going physical and you see some substance there then let's do the day so in order for you to see substance what has to be put on the table um for you to say yeah i'm interested you can tell about a conversation too though right yeah yeah i don't think it's a thing it has to be kind of like a natural progression because some i'm learning that guys are very specific about what they share and it's mostly based on what they think the woman wants to hear yeah that's dangerous yeah and that's the problem that i have with so dangerous with dating is that you go based off of history with other women instead of really feeling out and getting to know the woman that you're with and once you learn the woman that you're with you can understand like oh i can share this and it won't be judged or i can share this and you know and you can't be afraid of being judged that's that's a part of the dating process like you have to give someone a fair chance to make a proper decision off of everything you share like you give me one thing about me i have discernment so i i automatically know when something's not being shared like you're just telling me stuff that you think i want to hear and then most times it's based on an assumption like like how you discern and assume stuff yeah like people like for some reason guys think that women who look a certain way or is presented a certain way on social media need a guy that has a lot of money so they'll present like their you know what they do for a living bank account and all these honestly falsehoods sometimes or just present basically just what you know a female what they think a female wants to hear and see i'm the type i'm not into any of that like that's good but i need to know you as a person if you're broke who are you going to be that's what i need who are you going to be yeah who are you going to be that's the person i need to know because everybody good when they got money um all right they say say that again everybody's good when they got money all right they are in a good mood good to everybody but when they don't have how do you treat people that's crazy i i um i i go off like just friendships like that right like you don't truly know a person until you know y'all both don't got no money because if i got money ain't got no money you know what i'm saying just off the stream bro i'm gonna show love like you know what i'm saying but if we both got money you know what i'm saying like some things could you know what i'm saying kind of be avoided bro but we both ain't got no money like you know what i'm saying like you get to you know what i'm saying really know what a person really wants from like you know what i'm saying like if they really rocking with you they really are they really feeling like that like man that's deep no it's true because i mean my goal is to have a solid like relationship like a really solid beautiful loving relationship and all of these other things like money and everything else it's just an addition to what's going to make our relationship better but the foundation has to be solid it's a backbone all right yeah characteristics that's fair yeah so tell me about you tell me share as much as you're comfortable with sharing yeah and then i can make i can make a decision off of that okay if you're only sharing with things that you think i want to hear then i'm going to be kind of turned off by that because i feel like you're hiding something so as much as you're comfortable as much as you're comfortable with sharing because as your children you won't see the discomfort as you hide in something yeah i'm saying you won't i won't i won't how can you decide for that because there has to be a certain level of trust built because i know there are some individuals who you would share some dark secrets with or some very vulnerable situations that you've been through right and in that moment because they like you they're understanding oh yeah i've been there blah blah blah so you feel like this trusting thing but the moment y'all fall out you hear those secrets from somebody else or they turn it against you that's why your father did this so that's you know what i'm saying so i understand that there's some things that you won't share until you know you can fully trust that person and i'm okay with that but i'm talking about just you ain't gonna be able to tell though i'm telling my you can tell surface level stuff what i'm saying you're not gonna be able to say oh maybe maybe he's just not comfortable because i i don't know that a guy would tell you like like if if he start off he's like yeah i did eight years never mind and what are you gonna say like nah i say it yeah nah i ain't really comfortable with it now he's not gonna say i ain't come to he's gonna be like never mind and he's gonna be like nah you hiding something bruh like be real no if you start out like that i feel like like so why even why even start out like that because maybe you asked them you know what's your job situation like you know you you saying you into you never thought about working in well no i actually you know just got out nevermind got out of prison [Laughter] okay but he wants he won't say he's black well it's a long story we'll see be real now again i'm big on being open and allowing a person to make a decision it's unfair to withhold information that could possibly be a deterrent imagine y'all comfortable if y'all fall in love right yeah three months from that time and then he decided no you know it depends yeah you're right following three months during this time right okay and then he's like i you know i want to go ahead and be open i did eight years in prison okay so you you feel like you should have told me that why you just didn't tell me that in the beginning because he was uncomfortable no no that's what i'm saying so you're not going for that because no because if she decides to leave or if i decide to leave they ain't gonna come kill you i didn't been to jail baby like that's that's what i'm saying i you have to be comfortable with yourself and your past and what you've been through like i have no problem with telling people the stuff that i've been through that's you i i know but that's because i'm comfortable with me okay and my story i know it does not dictate where i'm going okay this is just the stuff that i've been through so he could have did eight years and said hey i did that i was young dumb i learned from that mistake and i'm shocked a classy dog a classic yeah you know young dumb made some dumb mistakes but i'm making changes now and i'm you know trying i can respect that a whole lot more than you waiting until like you got me and then like you're gonna throw that all right what's the program they do when they get out of prison halfway yeah halfway huh it's another name i'm thinking of something oh transition why are we on jail like i'm gonna just be honest i'm not gonna date somebody who's been in prison before well i'm just trying to think of i'm just trying to think through like what it would look like for somebody that's not for eight years i can understand what it is somebody that's uncomfortable sharing something that's a risk that's a risk you got to take because you want someone that's with you knowing everything about you bro i'm just telling what you said you said share it yeah if you're comfortable with this share as much as you're comfortable with sharing so i'm saying go as far as you can in the beginning now there are some things that you want to wait on just because you want to build that trust but try to be as open and honest in the beginning as you can that way they're making a choice based off of what you shared and not what you want them to know and what you want them to see because it's a facade other otherwise yeah so yeah say it's only so long some fake can pretend right yeah it's eventually gonna come up it's gonna have to come out and for me it's gotta come out soon cause i'm gonna be praying like okay he telling me this but god showed me what it really is so that's that mean that's the first date at first that you don't have to share everything you can just give like general well i i i got to go back even rethink that part because i i don't know how i forgot but i skipped over even the talking on the phone for you know a few weeks before you even decide to yeah i'm gonna even be comfortable yeah i think everybody should do that i'll do that yeah it ain't no i don't know i think it's you see that in movies so it's like let's go grab coffee tomorrow yeah and i just met you last night like that's all right i don't imagine it don't happen no but that ain't my stupidity i've been i've been in that situation though yeah i've been in this situation but did they bring a representative to the date what you mean were they real when they showed up oh yeah that's shocking it was one of those situations where it was like you know i've been i've been watching you you know [Laughter] i've seen you around and i've noticed whatever and i was can we just go do this go grab something and talk i was fine with that i was fine with that because it really i don't think that was like considered a date i think it was more like a let's hang out i don't consider like grabbing coffee a date okay you old school like that though you'd rather sit down and talk and be on the phone and not see the person lie to you you have to be lied to them i i'm gonna be honest i do i do the phone thing just for their level of comfort but i do prefer being in front of you because i do want to see of course i want to see of course i want to see watching everything too i am i'm very observant very very observant i can tell someone lying to me i can tell every time not just like that's dangerous right but but then again like you had to go i think about you said you know a loss ain't lost is a lesson right yes so you know you learn so much from you know just your past right uh-huh and so you know that's how that's helping you and shaping where you are right now right like as far as like you know you didn't heard that lie before so you know what i'm saying you already know you can probably tell the position they're going to be in to kind of you know what i'm saying you can push that forward so you can call they blow before they even get started on it i just was like oh really really talking i mean i may be selling it i'm like oh okay okay i don't even i don't argue with people i just let them be them because me i'm being me always i think sometimes i'm too myself like i present so much and guys have a lot to work with so they can spend their stories or what they like and don't like to fit what i've shared so i've learned to just stop doing that i'm i'm quiet now i let them you know talk right i let because i want to know like how real you're going to be with me like how where are you going to be [Laughter] hey look that's why i love you guys necessary i always say less than necessary fellas don't look don't talk yourself into a lie [ __ ] you gotta come back and you gotta remember just tell the truth just tell the truth just be honest just be honest and hope that that person can accept and appreciate you for who you are so how long you said it's been since you uh had sex [Laughter] i told somebody else something different because i'm that one you know how females be talking about like i'll keep something in my mind and i'll bring it up like six months later i'm literally that type of person so if you tell me one thing i lock it in and then we come back to it you said oh i thought you said this day this time and you said it went like this and well what's the motive behind that just no i honestly when they're sharing stuff it's just so i can be like i'm i'm listening to you i hear what you're saying so when you're sharing with me i'm just being attentive but then when you come with new information that doesn't correlate with what you said before then i have to be like well i thought you said cause this is what i heard from my conversation just let it go bro no let it go okay so female told you she only had two partners and then she done named by four people the next time y'all have a conversation you're not gonna say nothing about that no you had a great weekend he turned up he turned up man why you say that little day you were like like you keep things in the back your head what cole said uh-huh you gotta multiply by three why not be honest it's just so much more peaceful you know i think some guys can be overly honest like they'll be like you know i just i don't know but females are drawn to that they can literally say i'm a dog i'm not probably going to be committed to you but i like you we can kick it and females like you know what i appreciate that he was on to me and i'm like girl that is the sign for you too this is not for you to exit no it ain't why not but you know what to expect you wouldn't appreciate that yeah i appreciate the truth that way i can make a nice exit like it's a mutual agreement that what you're presenting is not something that i want i'll get it so with first dates like i get you're asking a question can i ask a question can i ask you a question okay so with first date do you do you feel like there's less is more with the first day or do you feel like you should go all out i say listen more you wanna you don't know why cause i mean like if you you know what i'm saying you jump out there from the get-go you know like whatever you start you gotta continue like if you can't continue it now you're acting funny you know what i'm saying that's the end of the relationship [Music] the minute you do something big and the next time it's mediocre so if you do let's say you do big the first couple of times yeah i was going to say it probably depends on who it is how interested i am because i will probably be honest with that like yeah i'll never come here this is a nice restaurant i'm surprised myself [Laughter] this is nice but see i would i would appreciate that like you know i took it from the front i took a different route with you like so i hope you appreciate it this is how much i like you bro cuz i'll be honest i've been on some very um expensive first dates and when i tell you that's that's a no-go right it's a no for me it's it's a no it depending on how how much foundation we built like if we done just a couple weeks well i mean that didn't happen and you know that wasn't gonna happen but it was well i mean i pretty much made it clear i'm pretty open about like before the day or during the day before conversations and i make sure i say it multiple times to to make it clear that no matter what you plan to do i'm still sticking to this so don't disappoint yourself because i'm i'm being very clear so you get offended like all right did you get offended if it if it came to it like you know after the date it's like look man you know the bill was 300 you know you you got the most expensive state and you got a drink like oh 300 thank you look i mean like i really appreciate this man you went all out for no reason and it was like it was amazing thank you very much i'll add the very much on there too very much because it still stands like i'm not changing my mind that's a fact i can respect that like don't be like you got uber on your phone and i'd be like yeah you know what's sad though speaking of that what's sad is like i go into those situations already prepared to pay for myself and that's sad that i have to do that but i've been in situations where i i press like i'm okay this is what it is are you okay with that oh yeah you know in the back of their mind and like i know that thing like all i gotta do is do x y z and it's gonna change your mind blah blah blah and i'm very like i'm i'm an alpha female so if i say something i really mean it like i really mean what i say so they do all of that and i've always had to be prepared to take care of myself in those situations to the point that i won't even let them pick me up that's a fact i mean look i look like i'm driving like yeah you can't i i want to say that you know what i'm saying like you can't get i mean i understand respect like you can offend it but i think that you know i kind of wait well i would i wouldn't say get offended but i would say that he possibly you know i'm saying people when people operate like that it's not so much of the fact that they've seen you doing it but it's just the fact that they didn't work out for them and that's why i don't get offended because that's the problem with men y'all base things based off of what worked instead of getting to know that individual individually you know when i go on a date i don't base that person off of who i've been with if anything those past people didn't work so i need to find somebody who's not like them so i'm looking at you as you but you're guarding yourself against i am you always got to put up some level of guard in the sense of like you want to be discerning you don't want to be caught up in the experience or caught up in the person because you're attracted to them you got to use some some level of logic well that's what i'm saying what's what's wrong with that though like what's how is that fair that you've you've been able to walk into situations open-minded freely ready to just explore and like take it all in yeah with other people that may have done your own but then now you get to this person you're like i already know what i didn't been through and kind of dealt with i'm prepared to pay for my own meal because i already know how this go yeah i'm saying like how is that fair to the next guy that's well it's not so much of like because you're protecting yourself like and you got that in the back of your head so in a positive way though in a positive way i would think it's almost like you get a car and you run out of gas one time and use like okay next time i make sure i have a gas can in my car so i can be prepared you know what i'm saying but it's not in the sense of like you're expecting it to happen you're just preparing for it in the case that it does work yeah worst case scenario this is what i have to do and i'm gonna be prepared for it but i'm not going into it so that's not on your mind no no it's not on my mind that this person is going to do me the same way that this the last people i tell that thing i try to be more logical i'm i'm big on being prepared it's better to have and not need but at the same time it's like i still look at this person individually if you come and pick you up or do you walk outside with a gas can if we're going to keep that number why i don't like how you explain yourself in that moment like damn i got gas in the car i don't need gas all you brought the gas is just in case don't worry about it put it in the trunk so we forget about it no no i think i'll be like it's you know but at the end of it all the gist of it all is that i'm still looking at that person individually i'm open to seeing this person for who they are and not based on my experience because i've done it that way before and so you know the difference i do i've done it that way before before and it's pushed that person away so i know that way doesn't work because it is unfair to go into a situation like that but they need to hit up i mean it is unfair to go into a situation like i i know all y'all the same because i mean most people for a long time because you know how i used to be on facebook on social media like i was dating and a lot of guys wanted to paint me out as the woman who think that all men are the same and i wasn't i just things that i seen men can hold themselves accountable for i bring it out but i never had this notion of all men are the same i don't believe that because i've dated enough to know that they're not they may do certain things the same but that's just a certain type of god and there's different types but they all fall they're all different everyone has their different way different way of doing it yeah [ __ ] you're all different but you have to go into it i you have to go into with an open mind open to to to receive from that person but it's i don't know it's both sides though yeah true yeah yeah it's all over the place now though with what what seems like it seems so backwards in a lot of ways like women don't want the guy that's treating them good and being respectful and neither men but yeah i feel you men either no i've all true that i'm true that men a good woman it's like it's foreign to something but i will say maybe women think because i have to correct me from wrong because guys have tried to play rico suave and then turn around and they michael myers like maybe that's why they don't go for the good guys and they feel like it's not you you give me the same bull that such and such gave me i hadn't been through this so no let me get the disrespectful [ __ ] right though because he disrespectful yeah he's disrespectful already so there's two sides to that i feel like and it's that side and then it's the um it's the habits of what you grew up with so those types of traits and behaviors that you grew up with so you're used to seeing a guy being disrespectful verbally abusive some even physically abusive and so you think that's what love is you think that that's an expression of their love they just don't know how to express themselves so that's why they do it and a lot of them feel like it's fun like when you have all of that going on it's it's you know what i'm saying like they're so sad yeah when you have a peaceful like relationship peaceful person a person who who wants to communicate who doesn't want to it's boring it's not fun they like toxic because that's what they used to and when you have peace it's almost like it's like going out to i don't know a lake and you're seeing just peace peace everywhere right but you used to like the storms all the time so you spend your time waiting to see if a storm is going to come and it never comes in that so it's just like this can't be this can't be reality because what i know is you supposed to be arguing fighting you know cussing fussing the girl's supposed to like when i do something wrong she's supposed to like show up at my crib or or if she see a female like she's she's supposed it's like all these like toxic traits has become a thing now a fad i believe so what is it about that part that would cause someone to try to stir up some stuff instead of saying hey i thought this was what i wanted and i'm willing to just i'm willing for i'm willing to just walk away like peacefully like why isn't why isn't that the first choice if if you don't like a situation essentially you don't want to be with that person right and so why why try to use these tactics to where because you don't see the drama you're gonna start to create the ground the drama because that's what would satisfy you in this moment like what's wrong with just walking away it's a situation you don't want to be in and you don't like like because that's what you're used to yeah i mean it's a whole that's why i i love the mental health movement and then i kind of hate it as well because it is used as like like a scapegoat almost um because people feel like once i express that i have these mental health issues then that's the end all be all nobody wants to change they want to use it as a reason to act out or not even try to get the help that they need right so it could be that they really do love the person but in order to satisfy these toxic traits within them that they refuse to change they have to let me just create some drama to make sure this person loved me because if you deal with abandonment issues if you deal with rejection yeah you're not going to want to leave and then you need to make sure that person you know you want to see them love you and if the only way you know that they love you is if they're screaming and yelling you know because it has been said if this person is not you know if this person is not uh responding or screaming back with you when you're fighting and they don't love you and that's not true that's not true maybe they're just not an argumentative person like i'm not an argument i'm not gonna argue with you yeah i'm not about to you seem like you're a fighter so i used to be a fighter there's no use i used to be that way no it's health issues man because for me that came from those so i'm speaking from personal experience i'm not speaking from from what i see like this is somebody who dealt with rejection and abandonment and my response was anger you know being angry and so in turn it messed with my health so i had to basketball was a way that i was able to kind of come back having issues with hypertension and all of that like every time you know how they do the checks before your season starts you go get the check so it would take them longer to approve me because i had a heart murmur and i always had a higher um level with my blood pressure than normal they said it was an athletic thing like if you're athlete you naturally have this but it wasn't i was naturally an angry kid because of everything i went through so that's why i'm speaking from what i know so once you get a sense of self and you start to try to learn like relearn how to properly do relationships you understand that you don't a person doesn't have to scream and fight and all of that you can just you can have a civil conversation and understand that this person cares about you love you but it's it it's fun now it's toxic it's fun i see a lot of a lot of young kids now talk about you know i like her like this with a little bit of toxic why why unhealthy like why why do you want that why why do you need her coming and slashing your tires you know or or breaking your windows or fighting every girl that look your way why didn't you do that what is it about them but they like that stuff yeah i think just kids just like just thrill of things nowadays yeah okay are they just kids yeah they [Music] i think it's a level of immaturity i don't even think it's kids it's just an immature approach to relationships purely based off of generational examples so once you said in your mind that you want something different then you'll start to see life differently like even how we grew up but wounded had an example anymore we have some examples but what's pushed is the top that's what i'm saying yeah which push is that toxic all the bad stuff get the exposure yeah that's crazy all right and this is why all this needs to be put on the table on the first day i mean i need to know like do you like a little toxic oh okay i'm not the woman i'm not the woman for you all right i like peace you know love we push each other we work towards a comment what you're saying you saying you don't say that you're saying you wouldn't be willing to say that before he told you what you were saying you said something i was in the kitchen i'm gonna let him talk yeah i'm saying like i usually share so much of me that it gives them something to work with where they can tailor whatever to to me they can but it's the truth that my list is more you know it's true guys be like okay what kind of music you like to listen to yeah oh yeah i like r b jazz oh me too you know do you and if they smart like me because i'm big on like if i don't know something or i'm not really familiar i'm googling while we're talking so if he don't really listen to jazz he'll probably be you know googling it oh yeah so do you like to listen to cole train oh what word that's what see that's how i think [Laughter] who snitches somebody's snitching no i told you i haven't talking man i hung out with the fellas they talking too much i was the home girl they're soaking it all up yeah i was like oh really yeah they got the cheat code bro i'll be giving it out too we created a platform for you to talk let me meet with her mike ladies i'm gonna get y'all right no but seriously damn bro yeah game be trying to run games on both sides it's not games it is [Laughter] you say you take notes right when i that's a good thing for us bro we know what's going on less is more yeah yeah they be trying to you know prepare for the job even if they underqualified and then over time you start to see the reality that's why it's better to be like you know what i'm not qualified for this job however i still want it i feel like i can learn and if that's what the guy should be saying yeah so it's a job no i'm i'm glad you admitted that no i'm i'm applying it to the aspect of sometimes people get jobs that they're not qualified for but they're so passionate about it that they end up learning on they get on the job training and in some aspects that has been my terrible analogy no it's a personal arrogant it's not it's not it's not it's a perfect one i'm saying are you looking at his resume as he talked about no i'm only looking at what he presents whatever he presents to me joe snaps i don't have i don't have a standard there's not a meeting of a standard we come to we put what we have on the table and see if it works and sometimes what i present may not work for you and what he present may not work for me it's not about meeting someone's standards it's about coming to a couple you only tell them the good stuff right no i tell them everything i tell i tell everything that could possibly be a hindrance to them and if they're willing not oh that's something we can work out cool this is a side note um yesterday the song by nick's too close yeah you're so excited okay so i i didn't realize they were talking about dancing and him being hard and when she said that's the most weirdest sign no no because 25 30 years of my life i've mumbled that song without even knowing what they talking about did you know that she was saying yeah feel a little poke coming through yeah that's what she's saying i'm big on lyrics so [Music] oh bruh i just found out yesterday i felt so stupid i was like all this time we just we just mumbling and saying it was the 90s though like it just sounded good so you just no we definitely heard those theories you're older than [Music] it was classy though right i don't know it was nine it was it was it was how they presented it you know i can't help [Music] that happened yesterday bro i was just like wow that was done so cleverly but it really wasn't i just didn't know just mumbling the lyrics that's the 90s in it that's some good writing that's all it is um yeah y'all got the game showed up but no it's no game every female doesn't think like me so you can't i i can't say i represent the women yeah but you just damn told them i got i mean i gave them some advice let them talk first yeah well i wouldn't even say that sit there hold the phone no flow with the conversation flow with the conversation i would say even do facetime so you can see their faces how long before you spend time with the family if y'all if y'all if y'all two look two are serious ain't no kid so you ain't got to do that part cause i feel like that would be so challenging i've never dated nobody with kids but i just imagine that would be a challenge so how long before you go visit the family um i think that it's purely based on how serious you guys are like if y'all think about marriage then yeah go see the family see who you about to be married into because you got to see everyone's personality their dynamic how involved they are in your relationship how non-involved they are in your relationship it will bother you if they wasn't involved if they was like kind of disconnected i i have said that if i didn't not get along yeah if i didn't get along with the family uh specifically the parents i don't think it's gonna work and i know a lot of people like i don't care about the family as long as me my my guy's good i think for me i want to have this i mean that person yeah i want to have the most peaceful like marriage relationship as possible so i i would like to where me and his parents get along and vice versa and with my family they're so like loving and open it doesn't matter who you are whether they personally like you or not they're still going to treat you with love and respect and be so i don't have that problem like no god that i date would ever have an issue with my mom being mean to them or she's just not that type of person yeah she's not here i think that's important i mean not so much of you know a fast experience but you probably want to get the norm you know what i'm saying it's as soon as you figure out that you know you want to take them serious uh just for the fact bruh like i mean just to see their background just to kind of get you know i guess you got to get like that closing feel like who's this person i'm about to you know i'm saying get involved with because the family know yeah yeah and that's another thing i'm learning that like crazy they could have been lying about stuff and the family gonna be like [Music] yeah uncle gonna pull you to the side yeah that's a good thing you know right yeah cause i mean yeah especially if they like you they feel like you're a good person and they'll like we want to make sure that he's telling you everything and being open and knowing what you get yourself into so yeah i think it's just purely based on y'all chemistry and where y'all at now if y'all just talking or stupid yeah you know is should there be a time limit on that i don't know i think i've done it too soon in a couple of cases though really yeah what's too soon what i did [Laughter] okay okay yeah that's tough right and and honestly i think i've always said like sex sex during dating will complicate things and the expectations like i feel like the lines become blurred yeah a lot of ways and so yeah from my experience going to meet the family and then a month later we're breaking up like now you got to deal with dang i've been talking to your auntie and we got close and your little cousins like me like your nieces and nephews are crazy about me like now i got to stop talking to them like i've seen it done but i just if if i'm done with that person yeah i want to detach from i'm the family of everybody yeah i want yeah yeah for sure yeah kids especially when kids get involved like you just gotta you know you gotta be careful because i mean like kids yeah they yeah and they're going to look at it differently they're going oh you know what i'm saying like you could be there you know what i'm saying a bad story for him like i remember i met this guy and you know what i'm saying he just started acting funny i don't understand like the full picture of everything man that sucks you can't explain to kids yeah yeah the worst thing is making them feel abandoned with no explanation right yeah like i remember you you know what i'm saying alex you said you were coming over next week playing basketball and you never come like you're going to explain yourself i can't i can't i can't do that no i somebody with kids i can't i can't i i tried i was saying i'm dating dating yeah i can't do it because i'm about the family but yeah no i couldn't do that either because i i'm i'm too crazy about kids so yeah yeah for sure yep yep i i feel like just know where y'all going make sure y'all have a solid goal before you involve the family because you you get to that breakup points like i'm going to mention the fact if i break up with you i'm not breaking up with your mom your dad your family everyone that knows you know we connected through social media so it's i got to detach from everybody and it's unfair it's not fair all right so if the engagement well if the proposal is a no is a relationship over i say yeah i mean look bro if you propose if you propose you take your time out you go find a ring you know what i'm saying you create this perfect scene in your mind is is did she influence you because she had to tell you her size yeah she had to know how she want the proposal so now you ain't got anything set up are you gonna get a note that'd be [Laughter] like if we got on that same page like you know what i'm saying like we're on the same page like cat and catching the dictionary and you know what i'm saying and we jump to you know i'm in the seas and you in the no like we're gonna close that whole book for a fact like you know what i'm saying what but what if she gives like a good reason though what's the reason i don't i don't know give me something hypothetical i'm cool with that let's say that he messed up bad between life i'm talking about it and him like he messed up bad and he used it as a way to try to try to make up that's a different story now i'm saying like if we start off on the same page like you know what i'm saying we started on the same page like can it catch it we've been following along and reading along the same book look i'm gonna be honest if you jump like i said if you jump from the seed to the e it's over with what if i mess up like you know what i'm saying then the next day i try to come be like look babe i'm sorry you know i ain't mean none of that and you know what i'm saying when you marry me now you say no then i'm like all right i understand all right you got to be in the middle of walmart with your shirt off no your shirt open and yeah you got to do it that way bro put yourself out there i don't yeah i don't know if i could speak on behalf of like because i'm not proposing to a guy so i mean yeah no if i say no it would be a really really really good reason it doesn't even matter like you don't think you'll ever say yeah and not not mean it but only say that because you didn't want to embarrass him like y'all have a conversation after so it's on video you say yeah you put it on you did the fake tears like i would like it depends but you would think about faking it if if our family like if he decided dude i can't i don't think i could say no oh i don't think i could not you either i i know that's so embarrassing i would i'm all about protecting my partner whether i'm at odds with you or not like i'm gonna always protect you oh so he didn't he just screwed up like if i want to say no you've messed up like you messed up but if you won't have to talk about it right now because i still love you yeah so i at some point i imagine marrying crushing no like you didn't say yeah from all these you got to ring what you're going to do no no let me let me clarify if i if if i say yes i'm gonna give a perfect example so a friend of mine a friend of mine proposed to his girl in front of the church front of the church and his girl was like are you sure because don't be doing this in front like she was saying this right don't be doing this in front of everybody and you not serious about this commitment this is a big commitment she said this in front of everybody yeah she was like are you sure like is this what you want to do for real that was your idea she talked about this i mean they had a whole list he like girl just you know can you say yes she's like nah she said no i want to make sure you're sure yeah cause i'm assuming he probably done did some stuff with it much as that but in front of everybody yeah it could be embarrassing for you to do all that have all these theatrics and then it don't work out for the woman that's embarrassing as well like i don't think so depends on how far out they call the engagement now she said yes and the next day they broke up then it's like you might as well should have said no but for me if we need to take engagement more seriously if that's the case i 100 agree with you do not propose to me unless you are ready do counseling need to happen well before that i think it's safe i i think do everything you can to ensure like you know you have a solid yeah i'm anything that you feel is going to help make sure that you guys are solid but to the guy don't use that as a way to make things right yeah make things right get y'all on a good page and then do it that's it because then you put me in this like position to care more about saving face yeah then the reality of our relationship what did it work um i'm all about the reality of things i don't care about social media i don't care how we look to other people i care about when we're at home in private how is our relationship because that's what matters pictures yeah that's what matters not how good we look on social media it matters if i go home to peace with you like am i at peace with you so do not do that unless you are a thousand percent ready yeah because i don't care about the ring i don't care about what it looks like if you're not a good dude i'm not gonna be with you no no period nope period just please don't put me in that situation cause i feel especially in front of family like i'm just gonna i'm gonna protect you because that's just my name that's not a lot no that's not that's not a lie will you marry me yes yes but after we need to talk yeah i will marry you but you got if he has done some stuff you got to change these things or this is not going to work you know that's a yeah that's it but please don't put me down no this has to work i did that this has to work but a lot of guys don't think like that they they do things to pacify the girl this is what she wanted so let me just keep her i want to keep her around i still want to do my own thing but i don't want to lose her i want to have my cake and eat it too so let me just throw her ring in front of people man i was in front of everybody nervous it's amazing i just learned how to talk in front of people so bad it is uh yeah no dude [Laughter] everybody like [Laughter] but she was ready [Music] don't do it unless you're ready and i'm willing i will wait for the ready versus the halfway halfway you know yeah let's make up you and you honestly the truth of the matter is you're never really ready for something that big it's just in your mind you know you want to be with this person so it's like we're going to figure it out on our way but make sure you're in a good head space to where you're like it's just you and only you that i want but don't be doing it just to pacify me because i i know when it's half done i'll know it and please don't put involve my family because yes my family just as observant as i am they're right it's time to go everybody you know what i'm saying and if you think you bout to call the scene you ain't no all right yeah be ready would you expect me to say no in front of everybody yeah man why you want me to be this like that's not mean that's honest we've been talking about honesty that is big okay so i'm i'm being honest i won't embarrass him like that i won't do that i won't do it but will you marry me is the question answer the question yes maybe we need to change the question would you marry me we need to change the would you and then somebody oh yeah i would all right i'ma hold a ring so let's talk no you think you you think you'll marry me we gotta change the question bro will you marry me in the upcoming months will you marry me yes under the under the premise that you're going to change these things no it's just based on how how we got to that point like if we if we're just in a good space it's just always just don't now if we do like a private proposal and i know you're not ready i'm like no like if it's just me and that person you don't mind saying no i don't know i say no i'll say no because it's just me please don't be recording either like and read and post name it yeah it's a no she said i mean it's like i say if if it's me like and you know everything was smooth when i thought we was on the same page and you say no okay but if i did something that's fair yeah if i did something and i'm trying to you know use that as an apology and you say no then i can kind of understand it like you know what i'm saying like all right she ain't yeah i'm saying it's based on how it's presented i feel like if you really love me you feel like i'm the one and you know you've messed up and you was just using this as a but i didn't say sorry the whole night and this my big sorry and you still but what does this sorry come with because the one thing i'm so sick of is apology with no change so here's the that's that's that's another layer today i'm only going to change because it's what you want and in order for me to get what i need from you i got to change these things that's all you said you'll marry me if i change this this all right yeah i can do that but do you want to change them because if if i'm telling you to change something it's not on making me happy as the solo thing it's based off the fact that it's not good for you either [ __ ] don't receive it like that all the time but you need to because if you see me as your partner as your help mate if i'm looking at you and saying these are traits that are not beneficial to you for anything for career for relationships then i feel like you should trust me enough to want to change them for yourself because i'm not telling you to change it for me because i can break up with you today go find me somebody who already has those but if i'm telling you this is because i see that this could affect every aspect of your life that's tough that's deep for real i mean that's a real woman nigga's got an interview no it's not that's yours i learned a lot about you in this episode he said working in corporate america you got your stuff already nah i can't respect it though no i'm saying i'm not telling you to change for me i want you to change for you i want to see the best in you that sounds good but essentially you are saying i'm not going to put up with this no because it's not healthy yeah i get it and if we're both working to have a healthy prosperous marriage or relationship and i expect you to do the same thing with me like nah that's the gotcha gotcha yeah iva you got some things that's the point the change yeah that's i'm open to that because i'm like okay i trust you and i know you're telling me this because it could affect not only our relationship but all right so yeah okay ladies you got to be open to getting correction from your partner you have to be open to that and that was a hard thing for me that was a really hard thing for me because it can be looked at as you're rejecting who i am and not as a critique for me right and then sometimes men do pull weaknesses to make themselves look better they do project yeah it's yeah on both sides it's a projection but if you if you and your partner just a solid situation where he's like you know babe this part of you right here is you got to be open right you know what you're right yeah i'm gonna work on that but a lot of women like they wanna yeah i had to and then yeah what you're trying to say i'm not good enough no i'm not saying that but you know in order for us to get here you need to follow this list like you gave me my list and it's all in how you say it too men be y'all can be tough yeah y'all can be tough you know i'm talking what i know y'all can be really prominent we get the egg now look at here you gotta no i know yeah it could be one thing in that female they just blow it up and if you're not changing this and we can't i can't cause we don't normally fight with our words so when y'all stop stop all right i need a hate maker y'all it's just unleashing y'all needed that's why your daddy went up oh sweetie daddy love you all your mama oh oh my god are we talking about this what men say it is we need a haymaker can't match that energy unless we bring out all the stops no but all y'all know is aggression and anger we're not your homeboy we not your homeboy we your girls you gotta approach me differently you can't come at me like yo homie like boy you need to shave up blah blah i'm not your homeboy i'm your girl so as a protector i think the most beautiful thing about a man is when he can kind of submit himself to a humble way of approaching things because y'all approach things with your ego and your pride so it ultimately ends up in aggression and anger right so if you come to me like babe let's have a conversation i feel like x y and z just the outlet right yeah laid it out i found myself doing that and it turned into why you being so sensitive effects okay somebody start being honest and open like what what that's an unhealed woman that's an unhealed woman man that's a fact fact fact fact that that does something to that sound mentally right oh my gosh bro it does it does okay now because because it emasculates you guys when you finally get to a place to where and him and i talk about this also when you get to a place the way you try to see the good in everything and you want to gain perspective so bad going into situations knowing like my approach needs to be different in order to communicate with her because she's told me what she needs from me in order for her to receive this information all right let me give it a shot this is tuesday when she said this friday i'm gonna have this conversation with her and friday come and i approach it that way yeah this ain't even how she wanna hear it today it's why you been why you you doing too much like it's not even that big of a deal yeah right bruh you just told me on tuesday like what you said it's unhealed i unhill one one thousand percent get it together you got to be sure of self it's just unhit woman who's triggered and they only go off of what they've known to be away you know they don't know a man to come to that that place of like loving and you know saying it's just aggression and anger that makes so much sense that's what they know so and if you've never seen it presented that way yeah you're probably thinking sarcastic right right or he being too sensitive or you know he too no like i've had i'm so grateful for my journey because i've had the pleasure of seeing a proper marriage and how they approach each other like my parents didn't give that but i've been in the rooms of individuals who have learned the formula yeah and how the husband speaks to the wife and how the wife speaks to the husband and i'm like this is a thing like this is a reality so that's why i'm saying like a guy who can who's also known to be in his strength and all that who can come down and be like babe you know saying speak softly you know like we even go biblical like proverbs 15 1 a soft answer turned away wrath so if you can if you can come at me softly i'm more open to receive from you i aggression to me causes me to shut down right when you come at me in an angry way i just shut down and i don't want to talk because i'm not going to argue with you i don't want to talk and you're being aggressive so for me not to go into the fight mode because i don't know anything about well i know fight or flight i'm either going to break up with you cut you off or i'm going to want to fight yeah and i want to get away from that i want to do conflict resolution so that's why i'm like you don't have to talk to me like i'm your homie you don't have to talk to me like i'm one of the fellas i'm your girl talk to me soft talk to yeah they say talk to me nice yeah it's not talk to me nice and when i'm saying talk to me now it's like talk to me in a way that's loving and you're really saying you want this change because it's going to help us not just not just you yeah so if a woman can accept that it's because she has not healed within herself to understand there's a difference you know he doesn't have to come at you like that if he coming like babe i just i feel like this i'm open to that like i like that i don't i don't like that's what's happening aggression i'm not trying i want to be your friend like we can be friends we can be best friends but i don't want to be your homie don't talk to me like i'm your homeboy don't be afraid to be emotional don't be afraid to be vulnerable like that all that stuff is healthy it's healthy i want to see you cry i want to see you be upset in a way like dang i just want to see you win yeah like i want to see that but not you that's why your mama didn't love you that's why i don't want to that's why the last dude did this to you that's a hurt man that is a hurt man and i [Music] it's not my job to foster someone that's hurt it's not my job we got to want to heal together so that's real man it's so much to the dating world man we got to get away from that that toxic mentality it's not healthy it's not it's not productive and cutting people off ain't productive either just so everybody knows that's another episode because uh i see some truth in cutting people off and sometimes it's necessary but yeah it is necessary we'll get into that next time yeah yeah man i hope you all got something from this man yeah um this was a special episode me and brandon couldn't have did this by himself tell you that much it would have been short real quick trying to say try not to say nothing get us in trouble you want the ring bye [Laughter] yo man um perspective is good it is and that's why you know i like the balance of our team i've been able
