6pbDGKXD5ss | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pbDGKXD5ss | Top 10 BEST GUNS in Apex Legends 2019 || YOU WON'T BELIEVE NUMBER 9! | so commence it at the number 10 spot I'm gonna give this to the Peacekeeper shotgun now this seems to be the favor of a lot of people and I think that has to do with a lot how it's a traditionally performing pump-action shotgun right it's gonna feel instantly familiar when you pick it up if you've played other FPS games and you know how to use shotguns like this it's gonna feel like right at home now the way that this gun works is that it has a pellet spread and you get damage based on how many pellets you land and where they hit on the body this makes sense and it's a pretty easy concept to understand and get to grasp of it's gonna do more damage if you land pellets on headshots rather than if you do body shots but only by a little bit so you want to be just aiming to land as many posts as possible if you want to be effective with this gun and it's really nice and paired with something like an AR or even smg's I've found is is great to run as well I wouldn't recommend using a shotgun and a sniper because you leave that mid-range very open and if for right now the meta just doesn't really seem to be friendly towards that so if you're running the Peacekeeper you can pair it with something like an assault rifle and you'll be good to go just as a quick side note I think the Peacekeeper might be the easiest gun to kind of ease you into the game if you're new to FPS or if you're new to apex legends starting with the peacekeeper and figuring out how the guns work is a really good way to do that but moving on and coming in at the number 9 spot is the r99 SMG and I actually have a soft spot for this weapon because I believe it's one of the better smg's in the game and it doesn't get a lot of love I think one of the big reasons for that is that it does pretty low damage per bullet but that's not necessarily a bad thing because of how many attachments you can put on it and how you can change the weapon from a very liked load to your weapon to actually competitive at almost any range with this and in my eyes that's kind of the point of this weapon right it's a good cross between assault rifles and SMGs it can handle a lot of different ranges and still be good in both of them so this is again not a bad choice at all if you're starting the game and you're trying to get used to the weapons it's very easy to handle as well which is always a great sign what's also good is that this gun is pretty easy to find in comparison to a lot of the other guns in the game that just seem to be exceedingly rare coming up to date the number 8 spot is the Spitfire LMG now this is kind of a hot take I gotta be honest I like the Spitfire more than I like the devotion which probably isn't popular among many players the devotion is like the the apex baby you know what I'm saying I guess the reason I personally prefer the Spitfire is because it's overall as a weapon just solid right it does a lot of damage and has a decent fire rate but it's more consistent than the devotion because with that other weapon to spray for longer to get an increased fire rate which sounds good on paper and that should work but it's not very practical just be wasting ammo to speed up your fire right and then to hate your shots you know what I mean so it can be it's a very situational thing but for me personally any day of the week I'd always take the one that's consistent rather than the other one I have to constantly spray too good a good fire ain't taking number seven spot is gonna be the longbow DMR now I really like this as a weapon but it comes down to one thing you need attachments for it the problem is that this gun is a little bit on the rare side as well but not only that but you need a scope for this to be effective because the iron sights are just not the prettiest thing in the world to look at however it hits really hard if you can land your shots it holds every variety of different attachments but the most important ones are definitely the optics and also the stock in my opinion the magazine is good because it only holds five on default so if you want to put that up a little bit it's a good thing to try and make a priority and when you get your scopes you get all your attachments that you need if you're able to land headshots if body shots are gonna do a lot they're gonna give you with fifty five but if you can land a headshot you're gonna deal with whopping 110 damage per bullet which is absolutely insane and the best part is since it's not a bolt-action sniper rifle and you're not punished for mission shots too hard you know you can get a follow-up shot pretty quickly I would say you have multiple chances of landing those headshots which can be devastating and you can absolutely delete enemies I would strongly recommend this gun if you're a fan of the DMR from Halo or the SKS from pub G and games like that it's an incredible weapon but just remember it's very important to get attachments if you want to use this at its full potential coming Center number six spot is the g7 Scout which again is in the same class as the longbow but the reason why I'm putting this slightly above the longbow itself is because I don't think that this weapon is as dependent on getting attachments to be good as the longbow was right you pretty much need to deck that one out to be good with it but the g7 Scout is good no matter what obviously you want attachments and it's gonna make your life easier but you can still be just as dangerous with or without them I think it goes without saying that the g7 Scout does do a little bit less damage than the long though as far as bullets per shot but for me it's not all about DPS and how many bullets that you can hit and how hard they hit but it's about the versatility of a gun and the practicality of the weapon that I think matters most when it comes down to these two weapons obviously I ranked the g7 Scout higher than the longbow and but it was really hard to decide I think everybody's gonna have maybe a slightly different opinion about it it's gonna be very active as well so I guess all I can do is recommend that you try out both weapons and see which one you like better and what fits your playstyle a bit more but moving along here and coming in today to number five spot is the pretty boy of Apex legends the one that everybody is in love with the good old wingman now it's pretty safe to say that there is no other pistol that even compares to this gun as being as contending for a top spot in this list far and away the wee man is just the best no matter which way you want to turn it and I think it's gonna catch a nerf maybe in the future this thing can deal 45 damage per shot can deal 94 a headshot and you have six in the magazine normally in battle royale games I've never been a big fan of revolvers but this is the exception revolvers and B our games have always had a system of checks and balances right they hit hard and it can be devastating if you lend your bullets but there is a severe punishment for missing and you have to wait a long time to get a follow-up shot right that was kind of the balancing factor towards it but in apex legends it kind of feels like the women doesn't have that balance it has the insane damage if you do land your shots but there's not much punishment if you miss so what ends up happening is people just spam shots and especially if you're in the early game you only need to hit maybe two or three of them to really put someone away and if you land a headshot a devastating 90 damage just is an unbelievable amount to do so overall I'm gonna say right now the women is definitely one of the best guns in the game just in general but I expect it to catch maybe a little bit of a nerf in the future maybe not even necessarily a damage nerf but maybe the time that it takes between shots or something like that also it doesn't even really need attachments to make it better it's great in its vanilla stay as it is so and the wingman is I say this on ironically the best wingman command tonight the number four spot is gonna be the VK 47 flatline and I feel like this is the ak-47 and a bunch of other games it's an easier to use weapon the fight rate is pretty low for what it is but it hits a decently hard when you do land your shots and it's also a very common weapon so you'll get a lot of play time with it and you'll have plenty of opportunities to practice the only downside I think is that it is again pretty dependent on getting attachments for it to be good or it for it to be better I guess is a better way to put it I'm a firm believer that this gun pairs really well with something like a sniper rifle like a bolt action or a DMR you know it works great the meta with this is insane and it's one of the very few guns in the game where if you land a headshot rather than a body shot you do double the damage so you'll hit 16 on the body in 30 if you land a headshot but now ladies and gentleman come to that part of the list where we enter the top three of the best guns in the game and coming in today at that number three spot this is gonna be the crater sniper rifle now this is the mack daddy of all snipers in the game and it has irreplaceable ammo so once you use it you lose it now the 50 Cal bullets that it comes with are absolutely irreplaceable so keep that in mind and it also does not take any attachments but the great thing about this is that has an amazing one-shot capability if you land a body shot you're gonna be dealing 125 damage but if you lend a head shot 250 so what it lacks for in customization in different ways you can play the weapon it makes up for it and just sheer damage and delete power that'll give you and again I think one of the only downsides to this weapon is the fact that it's exceedingly rare right you're not gonna get a lot of play time and practice with it so with when you do you might not be super familiar with how to use it but I guess the more play time in practice that you put into this game more often than not you're gonna get this gun statistically speaking but coming in to the number two spot is an insane shotgun and again it's just as legendary as the sniper rifle that we just talked about it's just as rare and you can get out of these drops and it's exceedingly rare to find but the Mastiff shotgun is unbelievably good if you want to think about it this way you can compare to the Peacekeeper like that we talked about at the beginning of this video the way it kind of performs but the pellets don't fire exactly the same way as the peacekeepers does this one is more in the lines of like a horizontal line so it's kind of like you have a choke on the shotgun and it works way better than the Peacekeeper the way the Mastiff fires is means that it's gonna be way easier to hit headshots and also moving targets with the way that the pellets work with the weapon now when it comes to damage assuming you hit all of your pellets you can do 144 in the body but if you hit all of your pellets in the head it's gonna deal 288 damage which is insane but the problem is that you know it's hard to hit all of your pellets at once these are relative numbers and it's likely that you're gonna miss a couple of pellets but this is a good basis to go off of but anyways ladies and gentlemen coming into it at the number one spot of what I think is gonna be the best gun in the game that you can find practically game to game is the are 301 carbine assault rifle this thing is a monster what I love so much about this weapon is that the damage is very close to all of the other ARS but it fires and handles just like an SMG I love the quickness of it I like to play fast and aggressive and if that's you then this is going to be the absolute best weapon that you can possibly go after it's also great to pair with pretty much any weapon in the game the only thing I'd stay away from is probably SMGs but take a shotgun for close range maybe take a DMR or sniper for longer range but the AR can handle the rest of it and just you'll be surprised about how fast it melts if you can hit every single shot I don't know about you guys but I instantly fell in love with this weapon as soon as I first used it in the game and I gotta say it's also got probably some of the best weapon skins currently available for the weapons in the in apex legends right now as well but I think the r3 one currently is more than deserving of the number one spot or at least very very high up on the list and I want to know what you guys think about this list in the comment section down below if you agree with it or if you disagree with it let me know why and this list will probably change in the future based on how they continue to update and tweak guns and maybe how my personal tastes change either way I still think that this weapon is fantastic and you can never go wrong with it but anyways guys I think that is gonna be the video for today the top 10 best weapons in apex legends right

BP1tb7Q-iQY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BP1tb7Q-iQY | How to Achieve Smooth Blends - HC 416 | hello everybody and welcome to another hobby cheating video and today we're going to help you achieve those creamy smooth perfect Blends even with acrylic paint and importantly no airbrush let's get into it the the strict technomancer that is Vincy V let us get into the technique and learn it busy bee style before we head over to the desk I think it's important to talk about why blending is so hard and that's really simple most of us are painting our Miniatures with acrylic paint acrylic paint was not made to blend it's bad at it it's using a hammer to put a screw in the wall it's actually terrible at that thing acrylic paint was designed for a very simple purpose it was meant to dry quickly and it was meant to be highly durable those are two important things when we're painting miniatures but because of its very solid uh crystal lattice medium and because it dries so fast that makes it actually pretty poor at blending if you've ever painted with oil paints you know that a video of how to get smooth blends with oil paints would be completely insane because you just do it you just put the one oil paint down then another and then you just work them together and they blend everything's web blending it's completely ridiculous and easy you can feather it you can wet blend it you can do any of that stuff that's just how oil paints work with acrylic paints though because they dry so quickly we have to figure out lots of alternative techniques so in this video I'm going to take you through many of those different techniques what I think works the best when to use them and so on uh and to help you get those smooth Blends because it is something that with acrylic paints is harder and takes longer and really is can often be quite a lot of effort but as always we're going to show the cheats and the shortcuts wherever we can to make this process easy so let's head over to the desk let's take a visit with our old friend Larry the yogurt and see what we can do all right let's just start with some paints we're going to use we're going to do some skin tone on Larry the ogre we're going to keep it nice and simple but I want to run a wide variety of colors here so we're starting from something low and dark like bugman's glow which is what he's going to be base coated when we flip over we're going to end up in dark Ivory a pretty close approximation of white so this is we're going to make it hard on ourselves the first and easiest way we can combat the nature of acrylic paint where it doesn't want to blend is to treat it more like an oil paint and work quick we grab a bigger brush we work thick like I didn't thin this paint at all you can see it's straight out on the wet palette I have no I had no other random moisture in my brush and you just grab two different colors of paints like this but the key is apply thick use a big brush and then and then you're just going to mix them together aggressively the idea here is pretty straightforward what we want to do is start working these wet paints into each other right this is basically trying to solve the problem with acrylic paints that they dry too quickly when we work thick our drying time extends considerably and when we work wet we can now efficiently and effectively mix them together you'll notice how I'm frequently wiping my brush over on the paper towel so I usually keep a moist paper towel beside me and what I'm doing here is just working it back and forth and making sure that those colors are blending into each other smoothly now with wet blending one thing I'll say is this is always your first step um let me say it this way it's never your final step that's what I mean to say I apologize what I mean by that is no matter even though you're working these paints wet and you're bringing them all together you're still not going to get the blends perfectly smooth there will be rough spots there will be places where it doesn't quite work as well as you want this is a very organic process it happens very randomly and you can work as you see here I've added more colors in and I'm continuing to work them all together there is however not only will it not be perfect and that's fine you can smooth it out with later layers more wet Blends on top glazes you can see there how it dried but in addition the issue with it is that you're going to run out of working time eventually you only have so long with acrylic paints generally that's why you want to work with the big brush you want to work thick it gives you the maximum possible time but it's not the most our next option is Feathering here we apply again to a relatively small area a thick amount of paint and then we take a breath we void out the brush and then from the edge of that paint we just kind of basically rough it in we take it with that dry brush and we just place it you can see I'm putting it on there and then I take it and with no paint on the brush smooth and thin it out think of it like you're spreading the rest of that butter across the edge of that toast you don't have much butter left but you want to get it covered in all of that slice of toast right so you're just gonna work it and work it and work it and work it until basically it sort of becomes thin enough and transparent enough that it Smooths in now you notice the first time I did it I did it with a relatively small brush the problem with that and with a sable brush is that it's rather uh soft and it's kind of hard to smooth it all out using a synthetic brush can actually often have some better results you'll also damage your expensive brush a lot less when you do this but each time after I apply that thick dollop of paint I'm then just working it the problem with this is the sort of danger to this one is that you either overwork the paint damage some of your work underneath or create little gaps in the paint where it doesn't smoothly go over everything if that happens again just later glazes or more layers can happen now let's talk loaded brush I started with the thin paint the thin very wet paint filling my brush and then on just the tip of the brush I put a thick lighter color you can also do a thick darker color but then you've got to work up from the Shadows instead of down into the mid-tones so my belly of my brush is full of the mid-tone as I then push it across the model what happens is it naturally starts mixing and and creates a smooth gradient this is effectively wet blending in the brush and the advantage here is you can use this a lot better in a smaller area but it's a lot harder to execute this one takes a lot of practice I wanted to zoom in here because you can see how over all the layers my Blends aren't perfect even the wet blends with the different Feathering with the loaded brush none of these are perfect because the end of every road is going to be glazes none of these methods are going to be perfect after one application and that's an important thing to remember I think a lot of times when people try to achieve smooth blends with acrylic paints they think oh all I need is the perfect way to layer or the perfect way to do some loaded brush and it will always just magically create this wonderfully perfect transition the reality is that's not how this works when you're working with acrylic paints there simply will need to be multiple applications there are going to be steps that take you back and forth and have you applying the same paint over and over again if you truly want to achieve perfectly smooth blends with acrylic paints without using an airbrush or something similar then the road is lots of time and back and forth and back and forth applying either the same technique or the or integrating these techniques together so you can as I said whether Feathering or Wet Brush you know whether you're wet blending or whether you're loaded brush blending or any of these things you saw me do here none of them came out perfect and now we're going to work really close to the miniature I want to show you all of my sins okay and the end of most roads when it comes to acrylic painting and achieving smooth Blends is usually glazes whether a sort of microglaze and small or larger glazes like you see here and what I've done is I've thinned down a little mix of my shade colors and you can see I'm pulling the glazes toward the shadow color working over top wherever that layer line is showing wherever the blend isn't smooth I bring in the glaze I apply it sweep it around pull it towards there and then let it dry and that is one of the keys when you apply a glaze like this you put it on there and then you let it sit like right there I went back when I shouldn't have and you can see I tore a little paint up over that highlight glazes will never greatly shift the color they are meant to be a filter they are meant to let some of the colors from underneath work and you can combine these techniques in pretty good ways for example you can glaze and then as you see me doing here you can then feather so I will create the glaze over the actual transition line but now I've moved a new transition line up above wherever my brush stopped I can then void that brush okay out by wiping it on a wet paper towel or similar and then smooth the now recreated Edge while it's still wet like that up into that brighter area so a lot of this as I mentioned is just going to be back and forth and back and forth glazing lighter colors is something a lot of people often find challenging the key with glazing lighter colors is to not try to glaze pure white but instead integrate other tones for example here I'm using my bright skin tone plus little that dark Ivory and again you'll notice in this case I'm glazing up toward the Highlight always glaze in the direction of the the nearest color to your brush where when you leave that drop of paint at the end it's going to have the least effect all right but we still aren't smooth so let's talk about the final easy tricks and that is number one mid-tone saturation here I've thinned out some of the mid-tone skin color this is a mix of cork and that warm flesh and I've thinned it way down into a glaze and I'm just going to pull it towards the shadow color covering over the areas that aren't smooth by you by recreating that intense saturation not only does it make the miniature feel more alive and more real and more credible not only will it improve your overall painting but that extra thin layer of mid-tone will also hide a lot of those layer lines very easily so after you've glazed down into the shadows and up into the highlights the mid-tone glaze is a good way to bring it all together the other trick you can do is what we'll call an interference color here what you're doing is you're grabbing some other color that you haven't used I'm using just a simple very light red color here but you know kind of red ink or purple ink or something like that would work and I'm sweeping it from the mid-tone down into the Shadows when you introduce this new color you will need to feather The Edge as you saw me doing earlier but the addition of a new color an interference color that wasn't in your scheme before that works with the overall scheme especially skin with red can again really help hide those sins and smooth out the overall Blends in a really powerful way so this gives a great way to integrate inks or something similar contrast thin contrast paint into the last steps of your process for ultimate smoothness there we go Larry's all uh set up at least his skin there is on that side uh I hope this was helpful to you if it was do please uh give it a like

R_hzhJ4O8qw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_hzhJ4O8qw | How to Convert a Muslim to christianity - Practical Mission Strategies by Ven. Dr. Emma Uzuegbunam | they glorify your holy name you will learn what they from Everlasting unto Everlasting you alone are God in you we live and move and have our being let your name be glorified thank you for bringing us back yet again Lord we pray that you engrave your word in our hearts in such a way that our lives will witness a radical transformation unto your honor and Glory Lord that's our lives hereafter will bear a permanent imprint of your presence will bear the heartbeat of Heaven will bear the priorities of Heaven in this short time that we have to stay here grant us the grace to live by the dictates of Heaven this is our prayer Lord in Jesus mighty name of bread amen praise the Lord Matthew 28. from Verse 18 Matthew 28 from verse 18. then Jesus came to them and said all authority in heaven and on Earth has been given to me therefore go ye and Make Disciples of all Nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you and surely I am with you always to the very end of the age Hallelujah it will be important to note that the promise of the abiding presence of Jesus is tied onto The Obedience of this command to go and make disciples it's important I told you yesterday that God does not hear the prayer of rebels God has no business with people who have no business with him Jesus said John chapter 15 verse 14 John Chapter 14 verse 15. he who loves me say if you love me keep my commandment what is the Commandment go into all the nations and make disciples Hallelujah we Define mission simply as reaching the unreached in this segment I shall be looking at practical strategies practical Mission strategies in the light of 21st century challenges practical mission strategies in the light of 21st century challenges praise the Lord so I will touch briefly on some of the critical challenges of the present day some of the critical challenges number one the growing levels of civilization growing into secularization and then growing into nominalism the nature of 21st century is that you have people who are civilized who have become intrinsically secular in Outreach and nominal in their attitude to religion so now you look at what's happening all over the world people are basically or protein The Godly foundations on the basis of which society has been established the same week America the American Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage was a legal form of marital expression in Britain I mean in in America that same week a young man who had raised children from his sisters in Germany had those children declared as legitimate children in other words children raised from incestuous relationship became legitimaturian that same week or maybe about a week after or two weeks after in Japan adultery was ruled as legitimate Enterprise if if it has some business connotation so all over the world the norms the basic spiritual Norms on the basis of which society was formed I have been operated so we live in a world in which we have people who are civilized who are secular in their orientation that is the basic thoughts of their lives has no place for God for that reason they have become the enriched you know previously we used to think of Mission as something you do in the hinterland but today we have the unreached right around us I was saying yesterday that if you take a a head count of the proportion of people living in warri who have an active commitment to churches who consider themselves active members of churches you probably end up with about 10 percent or less that is secularism and so you're you're not talking about mission and you have Mission field right around you and yet you also have the unreached mission fields all over the world it makes the situation compound and complex because some of the places you could Define as as Christian locations are no longer Christian I mean I told you yesterday that Britain which is the headquarters of the Anglican communion is gradually being legitimately taken over by Islam legitimately the greater population of the British Community is becoming legitimately Islam legitimately without violence becoming is Islamic so you have you have Mission field we used in the days we used to study the models and theories of mission we used to know areas called the 1040 window which we defined by some population description in the world today the Nations that are supposed to be Christian are becoming secular and nominal in their religious orientation so you have Mission Faith as a matter of fact all the models we used to think about in relation to Mission are no longer useful because the mission atmosphere a mission challenge is is changing for that reason we must Define new missionary models the second character of the 21st century is growing impetuous godlessness you know people are developing but they are actually becoming Godless from one extreme of lack of concern about the things of God to The Other Extreme of growing occultism people who go to church are becoming terribly occultic I don't want to go into details about that but right around you you even have churches that are set up for satanic purposes and by satanic spirits it was here in warri that one of our church teachers who was kidnapped at Navy was eventually littered around along a foreign Road he was actually taken to a satanic Altar for sacrifice when he got to the place enough of course the people that had kidnapped him had delivered him to the ritualists you know there are two groups of people involved in the business there are the kidnappers who are paid about 200 000 naira I think by now they are they are fair their child would have increased and then there are the main ritualists so when it got to the to the shrine the altar his his eyes were opened because they believed that there was no way he could leave the place alive so they opened his eyes and standing around him we are four young men who had been kidnapped the same way he was kidnapped and what he found funny was that it was a young lady around the age of at the age of 30 that was standing beside five young men to sacrifice them to a satanic altar because around every group of kidnapped people you would find the person sacrificing them and as he was looking around he saw some prominent people in society standing around five people kidnapped you know waiting to offer them the satanic shrine and then as God would have it God intervened on his behalf and the priests of the satanic altar at the time when he was about to be sacrificed all the four young men in his group had been slaughtered right before him in fact when he was eventually rescued there were blood sprays sprays all over him the priest of the altar shouted I said take this one away take this one away the young lady was crying he said okay I have suffered for this thing though instead let me pay some more money the man said if I if you don't take this one away we will Slaughter you here at that time they took him away it was the same young man that kidnapped him that had the onerous responsibility of taking him away to dump him in a river because they have a river close to the satanic Shrine it must be in between worry and Benin because his eyes were covered much of the trip so the young man took him and was taking him to the river to dump him his hands and feet we are still tired so he prepared with the young man and the young man said okay I won't dump you into the river but I will drop you somewhere in the bush and while they were traveling the young man said ah I'm very happy that they released you in fact ever since I arrested you ever since I kidnapped you my heart never no peace at all foreign [Music] so the man demands work it was the man who told him that for one kidnap he is paid 200 000. they remember us in the prayer it's our work no there is here so we have a crisis in our hands we are talking about reaching the unreached now who are the reached that is the question who are the richest in our very midst are even the most the most dangerous unreached fellowshipping with us every day worshiping with us so when we talk about mission in the 21st century we have the enriched right around us agents of the devil the fellowship with us worship with us give tithes when they stand up to give that we also stand up to give that you do not know what they are paying tight on some of them are paying tight on blood human blood nobody is preaching to them nobody is challenging their conscience because the church has literally lost its Mission church has lost its mission and by the way you see that is the crisis of the present-day mission of the church the church has diverted from the mission of mission to the mission of infrastructure servicing infrastructure building all kinds of things skyscrapers the church has basically lost its mission and no doubts people regularly come to church and go and they remain what they are so when we talk about the unreached I think the first person we should ask ourselves is this whoa is the richest it is a tinier and Pioneer proportion within the Enclave called The Church that is where the crisis is so growing occultism in the church in the world and in the church that's another major 21st century challenge the Third 21st century challenge all over the world today is the growing threats of Islamic Jihad I won't talk about it in some detail again but there are some issues I need to raise about the growing threat of Islamic Jihad number one issue I want to make you constantly conscious of is that there is what we call radicalization going on in Islam ordinarily Muslims start as very peaceful quiet peace loving people Islam has Scholars who are strategists and I've already told you that they are already strategically taken over the world without violence they will ultimately take over the world because they are strategists secondly all the models I have studied in Mission are operative in Islam all the models all the models are operative in Islam all the models can I talk about some of the models the model of deep deep personalized orientation when Goodluck Jonathan was President I offered to become his advisor on Elementary education when he set up al-majuri education I literally offered to be his advisor on Elementary education because number one you see the al-majjiri philosophy is a philosophy that radically produces the personalized elements in Islam it is the same Elementary philosophy that Karl Marx John Lennon and the rest of them used in communism what was the principle in communism give me your child before the age of seven and the seed I plant in him you will not be able to uproot now was the that was the Communist philosophy in Islam that philosophy is called al-majjiri philosophy between the ages of one and seven a child is taken to a discipline that discipler excludes that child from any contact with any information in the world except Allah said between that interval and seven years the only thing that person has learned is Allah said and that every faithful should be willing to Die For What Allah said and as long as you have that that philosophical orientation you have a system that is breeding people who will be willing to Die For What for what Allah that is a the personalized orientation have no whom they have no family attachment they have no filial affection I was telling you yesterday that Christianity does not have a fundamental formation that supports mission Ary philosophy has a fundamental deep personalized orientation that is detribalized without filial affection and our imaginary person has no family he has no father or mother to think about he lives all his life literally in the bush besides the al-majjari philosophy prepares a person for living a selfless life our brother was praying a prayer about selflessness Christian selflessness it does not exist in our orientation unfortunately I told you yesterday that a man who has studied law in the University spent one year in the law school and has been called to bar accepted to be an abuki yet man in a church far away from his home for the sake of Allah because naturally he has been brought up in a life that is detribalized devoid of filial affection devoid of ostentation a life that is fundamentally and ultimately selfless a life that is devoid of Life a life that has no life in it he has no home he has no Comfort he has no treasure he has no pleasure a life that is devoid of life that is the orientation do you understand I said that all the models I have ever studied the mission I find them 100 percent in Islam I do not see any bit of them in Christianity that is why if the issue of faith is an issue of logic only the only religion that makes logical sense is Islam have I told you that all the people that challenge me in this life if role model is somebody who challenges you makes you work hard if that is what the role model is then all my role models in the issue of Faith are Muslims I said I make bold to say it I have not I have hardly found a Christian person who whose life and attitude to Faith makes me work harder I'm telling you the truth Osama bin Laden by 1968 when his father Muhammad bin Laden died Muhammad Bin Laden was a multi billionaire oil magnet with heavy investment in America from 1931 when America discovered oil in Saudi Arabia Muhammad Bin Laden was one of those that became great oil magnets with heavy investments in America Osama Bin Laden in 1968 as a small boy and from his father 32 million US dollars at that time Nigeria's annual budget was probably around 250 000 US dollars so Osama Bin Laden had wealth estimated at the annual budget of Nigeria for about 120 years you know what he did with that money he surrendered it at the feet of his pastors and mentors one of them is a man called Syed kutip the other one is a man called Azam those were his pastors his mentors what we are they teaching Osama bin Laden Americans we are coming to Saudi Arabia for oil mining they would pray in the church on Sunday but all through the week they will walk about on the streets naked dance disco do all kinds of funny things who were Osama Bin Laden spent us we are teaching him that these people are infidels they don't have any religion Bin Laden became a convert now let me come back let me not digress radicalization is going on in Islam every day more and more peaceful Muslims are being converted to radical suicide bombers every day every day do you know the young Nigerian who was caught in London where he was making an effort to explode an aircraft his name is Farooq God saved the aircraft a man who was trained in Yemen for years on exploding bombs that day his scale failed him because God rules the explosive met a popping sound and released some smoke and refused to explode and they caught him his name is Farouk when they investigated him they found that the man had over 30 million British pounds to his account why would the man was over 30 million British pounds want to kill himself in Seaside bombing is it because somebody dashed him money no it is because somebody taught him selflessness for Allah that is what nobody has taught us do you understand so when I look at when I look at oh my God when I look at when I look at the oppression of the church the whole thing seems to me like organized hypocrisy that's what it looks to me I'm sorry but that is my observation I am an analyst I'm a scientist by training I am doing Simple analysis when I look at what we do in the church and look at what people do to worship the god they worship something tells me that we are a bunch of bunch of hypocrites people who don't believe anything who don't hold anything seriously anyway thank you for bringing me to this program because from last night the Lord began to speak to me about a new project it wants me to get involved in I have stopped complaining about what people are doing or what they are not doing I have made up my mind to keep doing what I'm able to do as long as God helps me from late last night the Lord began to speak to me about the thousands of internally displaced persons in different parts of the North I don't know why it never really struck me God was saying to me why is it so difficult for Christians to perceive the realities around them white people are coming from America from Europe to bring food to internally displaced persons in different camps in different parts of Northern Nigeria Christians in southwest South East South South multi-billionaires are looking the other way as if it is not their business you know what God has told me in the course of this meeting and I thank you for bringing me here so that I could listen to God the Lord is saying to me that the time has come to send missionaries to the internally displaced persons camps and send food as a matter of fact for for a long time now it has been in the news that the people are starving the food items brought to them from America and from Europe some people in this country are stealing them and keeping the people starving many of them are Christians some of them are Muslims but with that Christians or Muslims they are existing Mission fields that are lying follow and because the church does not see the church cannot appreciate big mission fields that God has created effectively gathered by soldiers of the federal government Mission Fields wasting away and people are still doing ceremonial Mission my prayer is that this thing will not end a ceremony as for me I have stopped complaining I've stopped looking up who is doing what I do my own so that brings me to issues of strategies I have categorized the mission strategies into four different levels you know in the past we used different categories of mission participants we used to talk about the mission go as people who go to Mission field we used to talk about Mission givers people who regularly give the support Mission we used to talk about Mission growners people who are praying and groaning over those when the mission failed but I'm not interested in all those things anymore because if you the the larger population of the church is not interested but actually by the leading of the Holy Spirit I have created categories that have enough room for anybody who wants to do the beating of our Lord and Savior Jesus and I say this repeatedly God does not answer the prayers of rebels it is in the church that you have Rebels Jesus said why do you call me Lord Lord and yet don't do what I've asked you to do meaning that to call him Lord primarily and singularly and ultimately implies doing what he has commanded in fact it is better to do what he has commanded and not even call him Lord then call him Lord [Music] Hallelujah it's better to do what he has commanded than sing Lord Lord and live like a rebel so I said I've created four categories number one category is the category I've called the micro mini mission level micro mini mission level that is the level at which every individual can operate now this micro mini mission level is the level of adoption I know a family in the North all they are doing is adopting homeless hausa Fulani people and training them in their homes there is nobody here who cannot practice adoption now that again an implications of adoption you can actually adopt people and they are not living in your house but you superintend o over their lives they become your projects there are other levels of personal adoption there are levels of financial responsibility you know over a person's life you know which one person can very effectively adopt and superintendoever I told you yesterday that this is now my 10th year in a missionary diocese and in that diocese we have actually adopted a community and we are doing mission in the community we are paying Mission workers in the community and we are doing a lot more there is no one individual who cannot adopt in somebody's life begins with a a practical personal involvement in somebody's you know some of these things we do that we say we are going for a mission and then we just maybe enter the boat and travel to one location and preach and preach and preach and distribute give to them and go away and nobody is concerned about what is happening to them they are after that is a hit and run operation in many cases there are no follow-up procedures and they think it's just a wasted effort it's even better that individual persons operates on individual persons lives at the level that they can operate I have a young man who is a missionary in Saudi Arabia he is an accountant and God gave him an international job in Saudi Arabia and every day they have break time one hour every day and every day he holds a mini instruction session in his office about 30 40 minutes every day and he buys some Recreation so in place of people paying for their you know Recreation or their entertainment they simply walk in there and the young man will give them wise instruction many times he will give them some scripture without necessarily telling them it is from the scripture he might say to them I can do all things or maybe it is God who is at work in us but to Will and to do it with good pleasure the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom and then he just instructs them 30 minutes every day you know people who are committed to the business of mission can explore their environment there is always something you can do in your environment to touch somebody's life make a living impact in somebody's life for Christ's sake adoption level there is also a micro mini project level for instance yesterday I talked about our attitude to education and I pointed out that the Christian schools in this country are the most unaffordable from the nursery school level to the tertiary level they are the most unaffordable in different parts of the country now even more emphatically in the southern part of the country you have Muslim locations you have Muslim schools and it is entirely all costs paid program so somebody many individuals can afford it many individuals can afford it you don't have to travel to Togo or travel to Congo Congo Brazil or travel to Sierra Leone to be a missionary you can be a missionary right here you can start raising children in fact I have a standing invitation on my desk to come and live and work in the U.S I have con continuously turned it down for quite some time I have turned them down and recently I started considering it the only reason I started considering it is to be able to get to the U.S and raise a nursery school and begin to teach people from the scratch that is that is Mission do you understand now so there is the micro mini level there is the micro Maxi level meaning that one individual can grow from adopting one person to adopting a village one individual I can do it there are many individuals that God has blessed anyway I have I have stopped talking about people whom God has blessed there is nobody that God has not blessed there's nobody God has not blessed there is nobody who cannot adopt if who cannot grow in levels of personal involvement and then of course there are you know there are individuals that can set up projects are you aware that there is one man you sometimes see the adverts you know on global channels one man on Cable cable channels you find one man who is working on the Water Project to amp to provide water to over 70 million Africans the man is a Muslim one man and you think he takes water to a community and he doesn't share his faith in the community no he is doing it for a religious purpose and it is effectively working for him the first time I saw the jair bank in Nigeria I remembered where I first learned about it in Britain actually I had known that that bank has its roots in Saudi Arabia now I'm sure you know that Islamic Financial operations are being gradually admitted into the country in fact it was sanusi lamido sanusi who first introduced the principles of Islamic banking in Nigeria now what is the Strategic thing about Islamic banking Islamic banking is actually a financial operation that operates on the basis of Acts of the Apostles chapter 2 and chapter 4. an assemblage of brethren where people can share resources so that people own things in common and nobody said that anything belonged to him acts of the Apostle chapter four actually that is how acts of apostle chapter 4 ended and then in Acts of the Apostle chapter 5 the Bible tells us of a man and his wife who are tempted to follow yet they did not have the orientation that the others had you know something had become popular showing that it had become a way of life for the people listen now I have been asking myself what has the church done with billions of Nyla that has passed through its Hands All Through the Ages I can take you along to London and show you houses owned by Nigerian Church ministers in the heart of London where English people cannot afford to buy houses in Nigeria we are poverty poverty level is going be below manageable proportions Nigeria poverty indices oh two years ago three years ago some Nigerian leaders applied for certain levels of World Bank and international monetary fund loans on behalf of Nigeria the World Bank the authorities the World Bank and international monetary fund examined the application and concluded and wrote it down that the indices available about Nigeria do not show Nigeria as a poor country because Nigerians own the costliest Estates in Europe and America and yet poverty levels poverty levels are below tolerable proportions tolerable proportions by global indices poverty levels below tolerable proportions in Nigeria what does it amount to it amounts to carelessness to think that the church has a hand in this careless deprivation makes me sick about wearing an identity of the church makes me a participant in the callous deprivation I will show you in the heart of London how is this belonging to heads of churches in Nigeria we're talking about mission there is something called Financial mission I told you yesterday that a young man brought a form Educational Foundation fund to me one man one man and there are thousands of formerly Christian students who have benefited from Educational Foundation fund that is only one fund there are many others formerly Christian students many of them have become Muslims how they have gone on holidays to Dubai and Saudi Arabia they have gone for Hajj and they have come back you think they will come back carrying the Bible who told you did you remember them in their crisis I was a guest of investor of Port Harcourt Chapel and I saw a large mosque in the place and I was told of a Muslim professor who is single-handedly evangelizing University of Port Harcourt for Islam how does he do it Financial resource evangelism many students are on the list of his patronage you think they will come back and remain Christians you are fooling yourself do you understand we haven't started thinking yet so there are things when I talk about the micro level I am thinking about things that individual persons are doing micro in terms of personality micro mini in terms of the list an individual can do micro Maxi in terms of the highest level of what an individual person can do somebody heard me has a large number of personal employees the richest African man today do you know his name ah dangote thank God you know one man who is Wolf I think by two two or three years figures 13 billion US dollars he has employees running into hundreds of thousands and many of them are at various stages of conversion to Islam I went into an office in Abuja I was in somebody's office okay in the bank and then a young lady was driven in in a large vehicle and she was dressed in a funny way and as she was coming into the bank she was moving from one of his to another he showed instructions all kinds of others and then went around a little and went upstairs hi and one young man who was there shook his head and I wanted to find out you know I'm a curious person I wanted to find out why he shook his head I said that must be one of the directors at the bank he said no he said I was here when this girl came in as a YouTuber from Southeast do you understand today she is alhaja little girl unibo one name my sister today she's al-haja as a small girl YouTuber that is a project are you still thinking about mission it is a serious project and it's going on at different levels that is the micro level the level at which individuals like us can operate so as you go from here you can be thinking what can I do I have already told you the new assignment God gave me as I live from here I told you yesterday next weekend we shall be in kafanchan and there I will tidy up operations about sending missionaries into all the internally displaced persons camps and I will visit them myself to the glory of God so I've stopped worrying who is doing what and who is not doing what like I said it is not anybody's fault it is the fault of the structure we operate and by the way when we talk about structure what are the kind of things we are concerned about it is the priorities that we have set for ourselves but what are those priorities we are setting up priorities that will eventually collapse the church I lived in Huddersfield where the church had collapsed you know as a fresh student in in Huddersfield we were treated to um some soup Opera entertainment in a very beautiful Hall and in the course of the entertainment some young women we are brought on stage and they were dancing naked on stage and the commentator said something that made me nearly faint in the heart what did he say he said oh the place that is used as the stage for this beautiful dance display is the place that used to be the altar of Saint Paul's Anglican Church hottest field Town Center Queensgate Huddersfield the entire beautiful structure we were in was a place that used to be Saint Paul's Anglican Church Huddersfield Town Center Prince gate Huddersfield the population of the church thinned down so much that maintaining the church became a problem they had to cut off the quiet stall of the church as the main church so that they could provide effective warming for The Quiet Storm the choir stall could take the total population of the church and of course the population continued to reduce until it became it became impossible to maintain it and they sold that building at the cost of one pound to the Polytechnic of Huddersfield presently the University of Huddersfield the deed of transference was signed upon the payment of one pound in other words the church was was willing to throw away the structure I have lived in Europe where the church has collapsed it is so easy it begins like this actually it begins with a collapse of attitude and then what is left is May empty ceremony that people will very easily throw away and go their way that is why I began to talk about the growing secularism in the church for your information the only religion that is witnessing a genuine Revival in the world is Islam genuine Revival may God have mercy upon us so we are sharing this so that entered by the mercy of God we shall wake up again to responsibility no organization ever survived except on the platform of responsibility we must arise afresh onto responsibility so I've discussed the first two levels micro mini level micro Maxi level meaning that ordinary individuals like you and me can actually run projects that will help sustain people in the faith if you live mission like I was saying yesterday that The Church Must Transit from Mission as an occasional ceremony the mission as a regular life you know Mission as one week of mission to Mission as regular life that is every day you live your life is affecting people you have people you are working on when your life comes to that point you are doing the will of the master now when we come to cruel level s of Oppression we are now coming to operations that individuals cannot do on their own we are now talking about group levels so you have the macro mini operation a situation that two or three people can partner together to run a project for the sake of schooling people in the business of God now um I was reading the a national magazine recently and somebody was grumbling if if you go to Covenant University to the glory of God the people that studied there are compelled to pray regularly they are compelled to certain hours of prayer and as a matter of fact that is one way you can make an investment in people's lives Covenant University is repaired as one of the best universities in Nigeria if not the very best and so it has attracted the dream of the Nigerian Society so properly utilized it becomes a veritable instrument of mission that is the that is my understanding of present day mission and of course that is situating Mission in people's normal course of daily life situating mission in people's normal course of life in other words carrying mission to where the people are making it impossible for them to escape your missionary operation that is where your life begins to become relevant to people's lives I have not started seeing any such thing in the church now the fourth segment is the macro Maxi level of mission oppression and it is here that I want to bring in certain challenges facing the church in Nigeria and all over the world that is the things that must be done at group levels at the fullest level of operation now let me say this the most threatening challenge facing the church in Nigeria not just in Nigeria but all over the world is the challenge of survival the challenge of security now at this level you are no longer thinking about what an individual can do or what a small group can do you are now thinking about macromax Z levels which will involve corporate networks corporate systems of power corporate networks of political power let me explain this point fully because that is the highest level of corporate networking for the survival of the church well unless you believe that God wants us to be wiped out so that we will go to heaven maybe that's what God wants in September last year after months of operation of Isis Isis the Islamic states of Iraq and Syria was a network formed in the patient Gulf so specifically for slaughtering Christians they will Slaughter Christians in their hundreds and post their videos on set on television on the internet many times I would watch such videos and weep many times I would get prayer requests pray the Isis will Slaughter 150 Christians tonight back from 11 p.m pray and sometimes I will say to myself God is this your will for us or is there something else we can do and and I keep wondering why does the church not think of Bible why so suddenly in September Vladimir Putin Russian president on his own loaded aircrafts and began to bomb Isis networks and installations and camps in Syria and in the Persian Gulf and then the first thing that happened as a reaction was that America threatened to bump Russian aircrafts in fact between September and October last year America assembled 23 Nations around Europe and all those European allies to attack Russia in a Persian Gulf and China announced their willingness to take sides with Russia and I said to myself that we are actually on the threshold of the third world war because that was exactly how the second world war started it started by some kind of alignment of Nations started by a simple oppression and their Nations took sides and the war blossomed today it has been persistent in the news that a Russian aircraft has been shot down in Syria it's part of Russian operation now it's amazing Russia is not a Christian Nation in fact Vladimir Putin two weeks into the bombing of Isis regions called an American President Obama Barack and said why for goodness sake are you not protecting your brothers in the patient goal that was two weeks into the bombing two weeks afterwards Vladimir Putin published the results of his personal investigation into Isis operations from that report we learned two things number one that America under Barack Obama has been the greatest sponsor of the Isis the slaughter Christians and number two that inside the heartland of America there are Isis training camps in America supported by Obama Barack not long afterwards an American Pastor came to the public and announced that he was the one who packaged Obama Barack as a Christian in 2008 to enable him win an election he confessed that actually it was to his knowledge that Obama Barack was a Muslim but had asked for his assistance for a Christian packaging so that he could be appealing to the Christian Community when I had it it confirmed a suspicion I had announced for many years before 2008 America was the closest Ally to Israel from 2008 American policy changed so drastically that in less than four years of Obama barack's first tenure America had become the greatest enemy of Israel today America is not only the largest sponsor of Isis for the slaughter of Christians America it has also been made public has become the greatest sponsor of the nuclear project of Iran for the destruction of Christians in the Persian Gulf so the major crisis facing Christianity in this age is the crisis of survival now at this level no one individual can do anything unfortunately Christians are the most unknowledgeable as far as the issues of the threats facing Christianity are concerned there are two major projects facing us in Nigeria if we are not careful if we are not careful in the next four years Christianity will begin to become history I have taken time to study the history of Christianity in the post Boko Haram bombing era Boko Haram bombing started effectively from 2009 2009-2016 is a period of seven years but Christianity in the north has been substantially reduced to close to 50 percent some of the areas where you can see boost of Christianity in the north actually the areas that we traditionally call the middle belts there is something that is happening in Nigeria now I told you yesterday and it was late last night that the Lord began to make the picture clearer to me some of the internally displaced persons will never go back to their homes again because their areas have been taken over many of them are Christians who are running away from Islamic persecution the final Onslaught over Nigeria will take place around the Middle Belt and that final Onslaught will determine not only the future of Nigeria but the survival of Christianity in this country in the last dispensation in Nigeria prior to the present dispensation I was holding a crusade in Abuja there were government officials at that meeting some of them asked for private discussion with me and I volunteered and we heard some discussions and I thought I was speaking to people who had a concern for the critical security situation in the country and I made some very vital suggestions about taking the security challenge over the church in Nigeria to the next level um some of the issues around gradual you know sensitization on security awareness at least even up to the level of you know um proliferation of security sensors and I wonder why the church is an unmindful organization at that time on the average 28 churches were being burnt down every week and yet it is amazing that none of those churches had sensors at least minimum census and I was saying to myself that if nothing the time has come to elevate the level of our Brigade operations just one level higher in terms of security awareness sensitization and preparation and I bared my mind and I almost got into severe crisis for bearing my mind today we have lost a critical opportunity we may never have again never so that's how the situation is anyway two major challenges face Us in Nigeria number one is survival number two is relaunching mission to the north when it comes to relaunching mission to the north it has got to be a strategic systematic oppression involving all the elements of vital missionary oppression what are the elements of vital missionary operation well internal operations of adoption operations on facilities Health Facilities educational facilities Financial operations and so on you know infrastructural facilities and so on listen now it has come to a point where mission to the north has got to be strategic systematic Project based in other words you take a project and you hide behind that project to do Mission I told you yesterday that Mom and El rafai in kaduna started with a law that you couldn't preach the gospel in kaduna unless you had a government certified license and while we were still discussing it 19 states of the of the north adopted that law the doors are closing but the doors cannot close on projects but anyway what we couldn't do on a platform of ease and comfort we now have to do at a heavy cost but think about it if we do not relaunch Christian Mission to the north what will happen to the Christians that are existing in the north and that is my primary headache and worry because I am in touch with the Christians in the North you don't hear this in this country virtually every night the so-called Fulani herdsmen unleash themselves at Christian communities in the north slaughter people by the time you wake up in the morning you see copies of people littered on the streets and nobody is permitted to talk about it openly and their worry is what is all this coming to some of them in the further areas of the north are moving closer to the middle part and because we don't understand it by now we are supposed to have started rattling around the Middle Belt in terms of strategic supports and in terms of mission operation did you hear me by now after seven years of strategic jihadic bombing of the north by now we are supposed to have effectively galvanized ourselves into a support network around the Middle Belt for Strategic Mission and for systematic support and we are not yet galvanized we will pay heavily for it God have mercy on us once the Middle Belt is overrun this country is gone once the Middle Belt oh my God once the Middle Belt is ever run and as I'm looking at the situation there are all the facilities on the ground for overrunning the Middle Belt what am I even talking about overrunning I told you that Islam is traditionally diffused and selfless many of the motorcycle riders on the streets here Islam so the network is already effectively mobilized and in all the nukes and crannies of Southeast Southwest South South why oh my God why are we why what what makes us feel safe what let me tell you what the Lord told me as a round of God told me he said as long as the church continues to live in Rebellion so long will I turn my back on the church as I round off let me tell you this the only bribe we can give to God to win back his love to us is to unleash ourselves a mission everybody no exception there is no goer there is no Giver there is no groaner everybody mission there is nobody who cannot do Mission nobody there's nobody who cannot do Mission the only way we can can God to us John Chapter 14 verse 15 John chapter 15 verse 14 if you love me keep my commandment the one that loves me he it is that gives my commandment the one who keeps my commandment he it is that loves me the only index by which Christ measures love is that you keep his commandment what is the Commandment above all commandments all authority has been given unto me therefore go ye into all the nations make disciples the only bribe we can give God to win back his love unto us is that we unleash ourselves in Mission it begins with fundamental structural selflessness I told you I am almost single-handedly maintaining a mission field in one area in ABIA I run projects running into millions of naira I don't even have a good car I move about with but I run projects for God's sake running into millions of naira every money that enters my hand goes into strategic Divine projects and this afternoon when I thought I was already doing enough God sent to me God said to me why if the church not perceiving empty fallow Mission fields in the idps what does it mean the idps are starving internally displaced persons people are bringing food from America Europe to Nigeria are there churches in Nigeria or not in the same land we are a billionaire billionaire pastors billionaire preachers shame on Allah's shame are we are we Disciples of Jesus Christ or are we empty talking Hypocrites what are we what are we think about it what are you personally now talking about who didn't do what and who did what talk about yourself what am I doing for the kingdom what am I doing for

hubard psychopolitics the Art and Science of asserting and maintaining dominion over the thoughts and loyalties of individuals officers bureaus and masses and the affecting of the conquest of enemy Nations through mental healing editorial note this book is a synthesis of information gathered through observation discussion investigation and experience over the last 10 years I cannot entirely vouch for its authenticity disclosure of the sources from which it is drawn would undoubtedly lead to Great difficulties for them and in matters of this kind the Soviet is not accustomed to the issuance of validations having compile this volume I did not easily discover any method of Distributing it since my own facilities and finances are as is customary with professors necessarily limited further the placement of this volume in anyone's hands constituted to some degree a considerable risk to myself until I realized that there actually were two American groups in the field of mental science who were entirely above suspicion particularly since they were often mentioned as Soviet targets by my informers and were mentioned in the actual text of this book as being antipathetic to this Soviet program these two groups were the Christian scientists and the Dione ists Christian Science is an American religion intensely patriotic Dione is the only entirely American development in the field of the human mind knowing from my information sources that Dianetics and Christian Science and there people have experienced years of maing and defamation at communist hands I am submitting to these organizations this work I wish to express here my appreciation for their bold resistance to Communism through the years I wish also to express my confidence in the future of the free nations of Earth although the Soviet has found a in the armor of individual liberty it is certain that Democratic processes can mend it that only the individual himself can protest against assault and injury to him be for law joined with the fact that the insane have no rights be for law has permitted in itself this deep Ingress into our country's security so long as this legal hole exists there is then no law against driving anyone insane even though this action deals as finally with a person as does murder the existence today of Highly efficient drugs such as LSD e one a millionth of an ounce of which can create Insanity brings This legal loophole into focus by enacting legislation permitting a friend or next of kin to bring charges in case of assault and by quickly placing all treatment EV institutions for the insane in the hands of ministers taking it entirely out of the hands of European indoctrinated practitioners the entire effort of psychopolitics can be nullified at once if you care to check this subject of psychopolitics against current occurrences in the American sen you will discover the urgency of such measures Charles Stickley New York City 1955 the brainwashing Manuel an address by barer American students at the lenon University I welcome your attendance at these classes on psychopolitics psychop politics is an important if less known division of geopolitics it is less known because it must necessarily deal with Highly Educated Personnel the very top stata of mental healing by psychopolitics our chief goals are effectively carried forward to produce a maximum of Chaos in the culture of the enemy is our first most important step our fruits are grow in chaos distrust economic depression and scientific turmoil at least a weary populace can seek peace only in our offered communist state At Last Only communism can resolve the problems of the masses a psychop politician must work hard to produce the maximum chaos in the fields of mental healing he must recruit and use all the agencies and Facilities of mental healing he must labor to increase the personnel and Facilities of of mental healing and Ill at last the entire field of mental science is entirely dominated by communist principles and desires to achieve these goals the psychop politician must Crush every homegrown variety of mental healing in America actual teachings of Freud James Eddie and others amongst your misguided peoples must be swept away they must be discredited defamed arrested stamped upon even by their own government until there is no credit in them and only communist oriented healing remains you must work until every teacher of psychology unknowingly or knowingly teaches only communist Doctrine under the guise of psychology you must labor until every doctor and psychiatrist is either a psychop politician or an unwitting assistant to our aims you must labor until we have dominion over the minds and bodies of of every important person in your nation you must achieve such disrepute for the state of insanity and such authority over its pronouncement that not one Statesman so labeled could again be given Credence by his people you must work until suicide arising from mental imbalances common and calls forth no General investigation or remark with the institutions for the insane you have in your country prisons which can hold day million persons and can hold them without civil rights or any hope of freedom and upon these people can be practiced shock and surgery so that never again will they draw a sane breath you must make these treatments common and accepted and you must sweep aside any treatment or any group of persons seeking to treat by effective means you must dominate as respected men the fields of Psychiatry and psychology you you must dominate the hospitals and universities you must carry forward the myth that only a European doctor is competent in the field of insanity and thus excuse amongst you the high incidence of foreign birth and training if and when we seize Vienna you shall have then a common ground of meeting and can come and take your instructions as worshipers a Freud along with other psychiatrists psychopolitics is a solemn arch with it you can erase our enemies as insects you can the efficiency of leaders by striking Insanity into their families through the use of drugs you can wipe them away with testimony as to their Insanity by our Technologies you can even bring about Insanity itself when they seem to resistive you can change their loyalties by psychopolitics given a short time with a psychop politician you can alter forever the Loyalty of a soldier in our hands or a Statesman or a leader in his own country or you can destroy his mind however you labor under certain dangers it may happen that remedies for hour treatments may be discovered it may occur that a public human crime may arise against mental healing it may thus occur that all mental healing might be placed in the hands of ministers and be taken out of the hands of our psychologists and psychiatrists but the capitalistic thirst for control capitalistic inhumanity and a general public Terror of insanity can be brought to guard against these things but should they could should independent researchers actually discover means to undo psychopolitical procedures you must not rest you must not eat or sleep you must not stint one tiniest bit of available money to campaign against it discredit it strike it down and render it void for Bayan effective means all our actions and researches could be undone in a capitalistic State you are aided on all sides by the corruption of the philosophy of man and the times you will discover that everything will Aid you in your campaign to seize control and use all mental healing to spread our Doctrine and rid us of our enemies within their own bord use the courts use the judges use the constitution of the country use its medical societies and its laws to further our ends do not stint in your labor in this direction and when you have succeeded you will discover that you can now affect your own legislation at will and you can by careful organization of healing societies by constant campaign about the Terrors of society by pretense as to your Effectiveness make your capitalist himself by his own Appropriations finance a large portion of the quiet communist conquest of the nation by psychopolitics create chaos leave a nation leaderless kill our enemies and bring to Earth through communism the greatest peace man has

KpNBn-k7p0I | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpNBn-k7p0I | SEGAL TALKS with John Glover United States on Thursday 15 April 2021 | create new ways of presenting and we had bob wilson with us on the last week on wednesday which was a fantastic conversation and um today we continue our series with artists curators and producers who um uh try to make sense out of the time of corona create create meeting and uh and now after um the immediate shock which we experienced last year we a talk with over 150 artists from 50 countries now it's all about what do we do now what's last tune what to do um the big question and with us today we have someone who does something john glover and john is also how would you say a triple champion he's an artist uh he's a producer um and also a presenter so um john grover as i read from his bio which hopefully you all got is a an expressive composer unabashedly espresso they say and he has created music for concert opera dance and theater and he has received commissions from the huston houston grand opera on-site opera new york youth symphony the washington national opera sparks and inquiry christ the milwaukee opera american conservatory theater and mirror vision ensemble and he has many upcoming projects with artists that he is collaborating with and the new music theater work with the american opera project titled eat the document with his frequent collaborator kelly rook john serves as the director of artistic planning for the kauffman music center here in manhattan this is why we have him here he invented something uh the musical store fronts things a little bit he said you have to talk to john this is essential what they does is stunning and i have to admit john i didn't know what it is so tell us a bit what's what's what is the musical storefront theater sure so just a little bit too about um thank you for that introduction and just a little bit also about uh kauffman music center for um i know that more of your audience tends to be um theater rather than concert audience so a little bit about kaufman music center is um we're located on the upper west side and kaufman is sort of this whole ecosystem of what music making means so we are three we have basically three main initiatives here that i help uh oversee the artistic guidance with or help coordinate the artistic guidance with so there's um we have merkin hall which is where we would normally be presenting concerts in our in our 450 seat theater on the upper west side um which is our professional presentations we also have special music school which is a unique collaboration with the department of education it's a k-12 public school and we provide music as the central uh curriculum component to that education so and it's our high school is the only arts high school in new york city that provides composition as a focus for instruction and then we have lucy moses school which is new york city's largest community music school so all of that is normally what kauffman is and my role as director of artistic planning is to oversee presentations and the hall but also to find ways that we can connect our professional presentation work with the wider sort of student body that also exists within kauffman um and so the musical storefronts uh was one of the many ways that we responded to um this this last difficult year where live performance has been a challenge for all of us um and so we pivoted in a couple ways we did also do digital presentations which we have going on throughout the season but at a certain point uh this opportunity presented itself to bring live music back to the city um and just a little context about musical storefronts is um this is a project that um it's certainly not my idea alone and it's it's a it's a real example of i think um how things are always stronger with community and a group of people coming together to realize something so in this case um there was an individual uh jay dweck who was walking around the upper west side and noticing all the empty storefronts and sort of had this idea why couldn't people be performing in storefronts and of course there have been a number of initial number of initiatives over the years where people do use storefronts for performance whether it's theater or music and he approached us with the idea was sort of the broad concept the idea and the our executive director kate sheeran and myself um sort of thought into that more hunted around for storefronts that could be a great concert hall um and also the technical possibilities how do you really execute this how do you do something that would be a really successful uh performance so there was this initial seat of an idea from jay and then a foundation he's connected to the alphadyne foundation which provided the funding and then on kaufman's side it's our presentation and we worked through um how to technically realize this curating of the artists and sort of running of the series and finding the storefront uh and so the it's sort of that whole collaboration that's come together including our location at 62nd and broadway um milstein properties in milford management is the landlord of that empty storefront and they actually donated the space to us which allowed us to hire even more musicians and present more concerts because we weren't worrying about having to rent the storefront and then we also had steinway and sons donate a grand piano to the space so it's this sort of shared collective effort to get live performance back to the city um and as a quick summary how it works is uh we present the same range of music that we would present at merkin hall so it's predominantly classical but not only there's a lot of jazz there's broadway and music theater there's contemporary and experimental music that whole range is being presented at the storefront and we started on january 23rd and the series is going up through april 28th so we are presenting 107 concerts over 200 musicians are being hired all being paid um standard professional wages for the concerts uh and there are two concerts a day almost every day of the week so uh we have an artist or a group of artists do a set from 11 onwards like an afternoon set they'll do three performances of 50 minutes in length each then there's a break and then we do like a four four o'clock on set with a different set of artists so um any day you walk past the storefront window you might experience a completely different sort of short 45 minute concert from a totally different artist and how we accomplish it technically is um it was an old clothing store that's been empty for over two years uh on the corner of 62nd and broadway and um we were able to convert it we brought uh microphones from merkin hall um purchased speakers uh moved the piano in and basically anywhere from a soloist to up to a quartet of performers can be in the space they're all mics they have monitors they can hear themselves we have a sound engineer who's outside on the sidewalk who is monitoring the levels and sort of designing as if we were in a normal theater and the speakers are outside of the window so um the audience that's on the sidewalk can hear the performance that's happening in the storefront um as you would if we were in a standard theater so that's sort of the broad look at it um uh it's also meaningful to me because uh it's a whole range of performers were presenting but one of in particular that i think is um you know vocalists particularly right now um don't really have a lot of opportunities for live performance because of the challenges of this particular um virus that we're dealing with right in that it's airborne so being able to present operatic singers broadway singers we've had stars from hamilton from tootsie we have singers that would normally be on the stage of the met they can perform at the storefront live for for people because there is this glass there is a there's a way that it becomes a safe medium um so that's sort of the broad broad picture of it um and i could if it's of interest i could share a short sort of video clip that gives a good summary of a few performances and gives people a sense of what the storefront looks like i don't i don't think i can hear you right now frank yeah oh shine okay great so i'll share yeah absolutely so give me one minute to share screen here and that should so this is sort of a summary of this gives a few highlights of the storefront it's like about two and a half minutes i'd go down behind the white car straight back [Music] okay [Music] [Applause] so [Music] [Applause] [Music] hmm [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] so [Music] wow [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Applause] [Music] so that gives a sense of sort of the scope of it is um you know it really we were trying um the idea was to be both a way to get live performance happening again uh in new york um which for most of these artists and most these audiences when we started this in january it was the first live performance that either side had experienced in you know since march um and part of it was really uh to to replicate or to replicate the theater experience as well as much as possible um so in terms of the sound so to have really high quality sound um for the artists and for the audience um and i think also uh it's it's been a great it's nice that it's a free initiative um and it's just been a really inspiring um thing to do especially in the middle of the winter when things were pretty pretty tough and the incredible thing is you know um for anybody who was worried about you know where will the audiences go when we're able to come back and and and where is that engagement at it i mean we have i think we're still we've still got two weeks to go i think we're over 17 000 audience members that have stopped in front of that storefront window to experience the concerts and i think that number is even more remarkable because we can't publicize them in advance so uh when we started this covid restrictions were such obviously they're loosening up now as we're furthering with the vaccine but when we started this um it was really early days in terms of figuring out how to safely do live events so um we had the entire series planned out but audiences wouldn't know in advance uh when the performances would be uh so it served as a kind it serves as a pop-up series uh even though we're just in this one location um but i mean even in our coldest days in like late january early february when it would be like 22 degrees you'd have like 100 people standing out there watching a 40-minute long concert just totally bundled up um and these aren't for the most part these aren't people who were planning to be there they're people who were walking by to run an errand or you know to get from place a to place b and suddenly there's a live performance in front of them and they just stopped um so it's been a real um a really joyful thing to do in this time um and and a real affirmation that um you know there is no replacement for live performance really you know there's no replacement for that actual experience so um incredible really um congratulations on that i hadn't heard i wasn't aware of it but as you said you know you can't really advertise it even now it's not only shortly before you will hear um when it happens but um it's an intervention in the public space it is also giving a sign that you care about audiences that you care about musicians and also the change someone has an idea it goes to an institution the institution has a funder and then it's being produced um so it's a real model that works it's very clear it's about my space um one one cannot cut go around the question you're close to lincoln center so um how does that make you feel i don't know i haven't seen such initiative coming from that gigantic organization um or am i missing four more things that they've been well i would say you know we're all i mean something i think about a lot um especially this year but in general you know we're all um i mean the arts at large are all part of this one giant community and then you know obviously there's the music making community and there's many communities within there as there are of course in theater and i the thing i really keep reflecting on in this last year is just that um you know we are all in the same ocean that is the trying to create work in a pandemic but we're definitely all in different boats and so um you know i think each we have this sort of shared challenge that we all are aware of this broader uh existential issue of having a living through a pandemic which none of us have done before and and figuring out how to create art in the midst of that which often depends on at least in our fields in the live experience um and i think we're all the tools we have available to us are all different i know um there are a number of other pop-up initiatives going obviously there's um uh the new york pop-up stuff has been going on which is through the city and the state um and i know lincoln center has now initiated a project called restart our stages uh so i think that has started already and i think goes mostly through the summer um so i think with us i think it was um we are a unique institution i think in a lot of ways in that we um are equally grounded in professional presentation but also in deeply engaging with our community in a community music school that has students from ages 3 to 90 and then also a public school with a core curriculum of music so it's we're we're connecting with communities in all three of those ways and we're we're a large institution but we're we're smaller than um many of our colleagues on the upper west side and and for that reason i think we're more nimble uh in sometimes in addressing some of these things so um i think this was one of those elements where um you know we're a presenter that normally works in a professional theater so when this idea appears of well what if couldn't you take over an empty storefront um you know for us the answer is yes because we have stagehands we have audio engineers we have even like our front of house people in our ushers um who you know haven't haven't we haven't had live audiences in our theater since last march suddenly they can all come into play and they can handle crowd control management and so they can run a front of house on the sidewalk so i think that's part of the uniqueness with us too is that we're um you know we're nimble in that way um so i i mean i i know that there are other um storefront initiatives happening around the city um mostly i've seen it with theater companies and not so much with um music presenters and hamburger created a great festival and i think the meat packing district yeah but still the scale of your initiative is remarkable and one thing is the new york city you know uh opera company i know the philharmonics have a truck they go around i actually saw one of the performances it felt very small the musicians were kind of looking to each other they didn't want to talk afterwards someone was singing kind of even the show tune and dancing on the uh red truck they had and it felt at least to me it didn't feel appropriate in a time of corona when people were dying and uh and to show i feel what you were doing there in a way well so was that glass you know there is something of interest that this screen we look at now i see you through a class the television and all of it but in a way it's a hybrid form but people are behind that you hear their voices but through a great sound system and what's missing the absent is kind of highlighted but you're still experiencing and i can think this is a why 100 people stay below freezing if you say there are one for 40 minutes to listen to a concert it's remarkable it's i mean i think it's um i think there is something interesting about you know um like i say we're we're not the first to do something like to to sort of re-engage a storefront but i think um you know like i can think of projects that happened around like risd you know 10 20 years ago that have done things like this too but i do think um there's when you're trying to i think there's something about it that um because i didn't really you know we didn't really know exactly how it would come together would people really stay how would the artists feel when they're performing would they feel like they're on display or would they feel really comfortable and i think in a lot of ways we just we took all of our expertise and our knowledge and our best practices for what works to support an artist and what works to create a concert in a theater and sort of just made that translation and so you know like um you know bringing in incredible audio engineers that would normally be amplifying performances in our theater and and having them do it there and making that translation and i think also like um for example the artists um when we thought through how does this programming work like how when you invite an artist to come do this what does that look like and so we we really wanted to create a situation that felt as familiar as possible so you have a stage manager you know you have a a you know five minute call two minute call um um you do a short sound check but also that we um we arranged it so that each if you're engaged for a performance on the storefront um you're given a um a a really respectable fee and that calls you to the storefront for a three hour period of time um so there's a sound check in there and then you do three performances spaced out um and we then the adjustment of course is that unlike a normal concert we're not asking you to do like a first act and a second act or something like that but more um like three shorter sets with breaks in between and that helps for us both with spacing out audiences that we don't have audiences gathering for too long but also the artists can get a breather but in a normal in normal concert seasons before this if you were hired for a concert performance at merkin hall or if you were hired to perform with an orchestra or a chamber group that probably took about three hours of your time right it was you know you'd show up at the hall you do maybe an hour sound check break while the audience is gathering and then you've probably got a program of around a hour an hour and a half of music with an intermission so i think um i mean i know these are kind of less interesting brass tacks things but i think all of those small elements um created an environment that felt um like a familiarity that a lot of us hadn't experienced in a long time and i think that that allowed the the artist to also feel um just a little more enlivened i mean the other joy is that you know it's really it's it's sort of like really elevated busking really right i mean it's they're on a street partner performing music is what's really happening but elevated in the sense that we can accomplish it at a technical level like we would in a theater because the performance part of the space is a controlled environment the sound is really good the performers feel safe in there climate controlled they can hear each other very well so they can really play at the same level that they would play if they were in the theater um and then we can really control the sound and make it at a very high professional level so i think those things um you know all and yet at the same time it's a free outdoor experience so i think those things help it come together to feel natural um and also you know it's it's a general philosophy of mine when doing programming in whatever context i'm doing it but um in this case it's it's sort of um you know once we have the generosity of the funding from the alphanine foundation to make it possible and the generosity of milstein and milford for donating our storefront space and providing us with the support of like their super if we had issues with electricity and things like that uh and once we have that piano it's once all those things came together it's really all reward and no risk so you really just reach out to artists that you're excited about or that um that you trust and just sort of say okay here's a storefront performance um what do you want to do what would you you know what's the thing that you've been wanting to play or what do you really want to share with people right now um because obviously it's a free public event so we're not concerned about ticket sales in the same way we would be in a normal presentation and things like that and so i think that too allowed it to be a kind of um sort of just like uh like this like this fire hydrant of just all this creative energy that's been building since march and we just opened it you know and and it's it's been incredible to see that um some really deeply emotional experiences with artists that would come up to me afterwards and say i haven't played in front of somebody else in a year you know i've played in my living room on zoom but i haven't done this in a year or uh same with audience members we've had audience members that have come up to us and just been weeping because they just haven't seen someone perform for them in light in real life and um so yeah it's it's been um i think it's sort of hit the best of all possible um aspects of of being a really controlled like a theater style environment for the artists but also a totally open available free public experience in a in a high traffic area of the city how do yeah artists feel did they did they try out things that normally wouldn't yeah you know it was a it was it was interesting to see a variety of responses you know we had some musicians that really thought um i would say each of the artists that we've invited was definitely thoughtful about what the actual environment was you know they understood that it was a storefront they understood that it was the public passing by that maybe people would stop maybe people wouldn't um and different artists had really different approaches to that so we had like the performer who opened the whole series sean lee phenomenal violinist um when we invited him he said okay well i've been working on all the paganini caprices uh especially over the pandemic and i you know i've got them all so i think what i'm going to do is just i'm just going to play paganini caprices um and i'll sort of announce them as i go and i don't know what order i'll do them in but i'll just do that and i think for him he thought you know they're these really beautiful virtuosic incredible pieces right that he's he's absolutely mastered but also they're all sort of tuneful and vibrant and short right they're all these sort of two to three minute things and it allowed him to um if someone stumbled across it and stopped they could take in one three-minute piece and then keep walking or they could take in a series of them since there is this set of 24 but also because of these short works he could um kind of play a caprice and then talk to the audience and play a caprice and talk to the audience and have it be this really interactive and casual experience um and then we had other artists i had michael kelly was a baritone uh who and he did a whole um because i also offered to artists they could either do like think of one 40 to 50 minute long set and do it three times since there would be breaks and you would have different audience or they could mix and match or they could however they like and this this artist michael kelly's fantastic baritone he actually went on a whole research thought about like windows and different he's a operatic baritone but he also does music theory theater and he thought through the concept of being through a window and glass and barriers and also the fact that he would be performing from four o'clock to for him it was four o'clock on and so his first set it would still be daylight but by the time he got to his last set the sun would have set because this was in february uh early march so the sun was still setting earlier then so he created a whole like three 50-minute programs that each added like if you stayed there for the whole three hours you had this three-act experience of that reflected on the time of day but also different ways of thinking about singing or reaching through barriers which i was totally amazed that that's where he went with it because it's like i mean he put together a bigger program than he would have ever put together in a normal concert hall it really was like 150 minutes of music like and if you stayed for that full three hours you experienced a complete show and i'm trying to think of a couple other examples of um some artists have taken it as an opportunity to um collaborate or connect with pianists that they haven't worked like some soloists for example um uh we had uh akash mittal who's a fantastic jazz saxophonist and also uh is the lead coach for our face the music program at kaufman music center uh which is a youth ensemble dedicated to uh only the work of living composers so he's a jaw saxophonist and composer and he took the opportunity because you could work with a maximum of four artists in the space and since he had to do three sets um he took it as a chance to work with three different pianists so he had a different artist join him for each set two of them were artists that he hadn't previously performed with um and so i think that was that's a unique example also because obviously um we're we're busy but we're busy in different ways right so a lot of a lot of musicians that would normally be on tour right now that are based in new york but would normally be traveling all around the globe and only here for a week at a time they're all here so a lot of artists akash is just one example a lot of artists were able to put together projects or try out things that they haven't been able to do in a long time because normally we're all more spread out and so in that way um it had a very sort of local feeling to it in terms of the art making incredible properties can choose whatever they want to do or do you ask them um within reason i mean we would start it as i gave them the the broad sense of like we would give them the broad sense of it's a storefront um you know the sort of setup also the fact that you know that what you're going to be performing is people walking by in the street so something that you think might draw people in or engage them um and um and just to be mindful the fact that it is um art that you're creating in a in a public space right so we're not and it's a pop-up so we're not contextualizing it before this isn't an audience that's coming specifically for one sort of thing uh and then beyond that really just ask them what do you want to do and um some artists wanted to have more back-and-forth conversations and some just said this is what i want to do and i and that that's where it would go so um yeah pretty open-ended in terms of uh their options just think about it and uh in a way of course also radical you are outside your normal space it's on the street but it's not on the street it's inside it's yeah artists afflicted by temperature weather however but really great sound quality normally it's not such a great uh according also great performers you have here and audiences are free to come and go stay robert wilson is famous for his long seven or nine hour operas especially in the beginning obviously the um liven time of sigmund freud and also einstein on the beach where he would give to the audience um the the um little how would you say hint you know all the audiences are free to leave and come back and take breaks on their own you know judgment which is a radical thing in a way to do and you you play with um with all of that yeah i think i think it's it's sort of um yeah we do end up delving into all those things and i think it was um uh it was also sort of a learning as we go you know it was once we had this initial idea then you just sort of solve the problems one step at a time and um you know there are things about it that were very clear to me from the beginning that would be successful about it for example you know i have produced stuff outdoors before and so just that huge relief of well if we're in a storefront but it's amplified out like great we don't need to i don't need to worry about i can't hire you know i can only hire certain kinds of instrumentalists i can't hire you know you really it left you as open as possible um and because you know it's it's an indoor space you have a piano um which you can tune and maintain and make sure that it stays stable which is um which is unique you know that wouldn't that wouldn't happen or it would be much more difficult to do outside um there's just so many variables that you you remove and and i guess the only um the only one that remains is will the audience stay engaged or not right because the artist is in a position where they're going to be able to go forward with the performance no matter what rain or shine um and the incredible thing was just to watch i mean there's really you just watched audiences didn't matter what the weather was they just stayed with it um so that part of it was really it was a much needed um affirmation i think especially this winter and they allowed to take pictures and film normally you're not allowed as an audience member is completely forbidden yeah as we say you can't and here later so it's also a meaningful moment i feel this is something um special what did you learn what you didn't know when you oh see this is something we discovered and maybe people who are listening now around the country or around the world say this is a great idea we should do that um what did you learn what was important what is important sure i mean i think the first thing that we learned which i i knew it before and i think it's why i was so adamant about setting up this discussion in this way uh at the beginning is is um it really something like this only comes together uh with a with a coalition of people there's not one um one piece of this puzzle that you couldn't have had to make the whole thing come together you know you really need um the presentation and and performance and experience of an institution like kaufman that is also willing to be flexible and nimble and creative but you need that you need that funder or that donor who's equally imaginative and um and excited and interested in an idea like this and um and and again having the landlord rally around it they could have very easily said well you know if you have if you have a foundation supporting this you know we really need to charge you some kind of rent and for them they just saw this as they've had a space that hasn't been occupied for over two years and uh they they they really saw the value in just um enlivening the space you know in just energizing that part of the city um so i think that really that was probably the biggest thing to learn was just that um the most joyful and successful projects um i think tend to be ones where you really do have this coalition of people who each bring something really strong to the table and create a collaboration beyond what any individual organization could have done we might have been able to put on 10 concerts you know if i'd shifted some of my presentation budget from what would have gone to merkin hall but we would never would have reached you know 107 concerts and over hired over 200 musicians um i think that's the big one and i think the other thing that i've learned is that um you know it's which shouldn't be a surprise but it's a good reminder is um it really you really couldn't predict time of day weather and this may be unique to the pandemic i don't know but uh time of day weather style of music it you know the size of audiences really ranged there was no sure hard and fast rule i can't tell you i mean there were days where we had someone at the window uh we had like jessie montgomery phenomenal composer and violinist doing all of her own original contemporary uh work we had hundreds of people there for the performance you have somebody else playing you know really standard repertoire beethoven and chopin and um people would stay engaged it really didn't there was no um no hard and fast rule to what aesthetic would draw the audience in more than any other um but i think what did really have an impact was um just the engagement of the artist and and as if the artist was doing the work that they really wanted to be doing and that they were excited about and and creating in an engaging way then an audience would naturally be drawn in regardless of what what the art was that was being shared incredible um so you know some people say about democracy and we feel of course the arts always have been on the right side of history most of the time they are on this complex struggle for freedom for democracy you know you say well countries often get the democracy they deserve and some say well also countries get the culture the music the art and say deserve it's a community is functioning as a result you will have great arts so it's not just what it reflects the unity it's just people say even about sports you will have great games if things are working you know you have great exciting things is the fact that the kaufman center is as a community with a school a good education right uh you're into presenting and also creating work is perhaps that the big difference to a place perhaps from lincoln center um where um and they do really great things i don't want to say anything against them but you know still you do you did something that has an impact now um is that fact is it a working community and do you care about the community around you was it for the community around 62nd street or producing it was like you know towards the gods of music we have to do something to celebrate the arts so what yeah i mean i would say um i mean i think there are a couple things i think yes i think the ecosystem of what kaufman music center is is really speaks to um a lot of it i mean there's just the fact that you're i mean also you know like the fact that we have um and pre pandemic like all these things are in the same building lucy moses school um this community music school and special music school and merkin hall they're all in the same building and they all the people who engage with us in each of those programs and projects they all much to our frustration sometimes but we all use the same elevator so the same elevator that takes you to the back stage of merc straight to the backstage of mercant hall and onto the stage is the same elevator that takes you up to a classroom on the fifth floor of the building where um you know maybe your second grade child is going into their velcro's class to learn eurythmics and internalize how rhythm musical rhythm works in their body and so joshua bell and that second grader might end up on that elevator at the same day at the same time trying to go in different directions for example and i think um i i think that makes a lot of sense i think something about the fact that the full ecosystem is here at all times um does it just creates a special kind of energy um where i think for one thing i think you never feel like you're getting stuck there's always a new idea or there's always an openness to trying something else i think when you're in a place that has learning at its core that is part of it um and i also think um yeah i think that i think that is that's probably a lot of it is that that kind of um that that full ecosystem exists here i hadn't really thought about that that idea before you brought that up but i do think that that um that speaks to a lot of our interests this year you know every institution is handling it differently but during the pandemic there are many presenters who have you know taken a pause or or sort of just stepped back and and have wanted to wait and i think you know for us back in march um i mean one thing that we did say um amongst ourselves because you know march and april was just so difficult um canceling everything and calling artists and saying i don't know when this art this show will happen i'm sorry you know um so we did make this promise like look we don't want to cancel anything ever again but we did also say you know but we also can't stop i mean if we stop how will these students keep learning and how will we get artists performing and how will we maintain our community connections with our normal audience at kaufman but also if we have to go online can we reach more audiences or this storefront for example okay if we can put on shows in a storefront for free and show the whole range of artists that we celebrate and that we present um we'll find new audiences i mean there are people stopping at that storefront that maybe have never walked into murkin hall and maybe because of an experience they've had there now they will uh or they'll seek out that artist i guess what i should add to here again it's a more brass text technical thing but um at the storefront so there's no um we don't announce the program in advance but when an artist is there there's a qr code at the bottom of the window you can scan the qr code if you have a phone um or we our ushers have small cards that have the information you scan the qr code it tells you who's performing what their program is and then rather than bios of the performers like we would put in a normal printed program we just it's the head shot of each artist and then a link to the bio on their individual website as well as obviously links to kaufman so that you can find out about our digital offerings and also you could sign up for classes that are in our school but um so very quickly and in at any point during the performance the audience can feel unencumbered to they can walk right up to the window and find out who the artist is they can get to their website very easily to follow them later so it provides an opportunity for discovery i think as well um both of these artists and and and of what we do so yeah restaurants who adapted the qxr yeah exactly it's like that there are some people where i'd say like you can scan that card like you can fight you can scan because people know who's playing who is this i'd say well that's you know jordan bach he's this phenomenal violist but you can scan that code you'll get more they'd be like what i don't get it and then you eventually you'd have to say it's like when you go to a restaurant now and they'd be like oh okay you know this something is changing and uh i also like the fact that it's not a fundraiser um the beloved fact actually from the new york metropolitan opera the big concert around the world which was beautiful from people so but of course it's also a fundraiser here you say this is a free offering and in america especially we should not underestimate the effort to be doing it also appreciate and celebrate this gesture what you guys did your thunders the building the spirit behind this because it is for the people by the people and with the people and caring about the community around you and yes of course maybe also someone say we support that center something seems to be working but it was not right away there and it's so beautifully presented by piano it looks like a shot you know from mtv you know so you really would care into it and not say well let's do something i mean i saw also from some theaters pop-up performances on the um from the vineyard theater and the artist was next to a subway where the sound would come out the sound thing didn't work you couldn't see a really you couldn't even hear the artist the microphone was working but there were about five fantastic cameras and it was filmed and you know it's going to be used for a fundraiser in a way but it's great that they did it and they do that but they had no experience and nobody people couldn't connect also the what was presented was spoken so fast and so fast it was almost impossible to follow far away so they were not thinking it through in a way as you did as the music people with that experience do you think the fact that you are an artist and i think one of the great complications in american arts and culture is that artists are not really in the driver's seat there's a lot of money for art in america some claim more than in europe of course it goes often more to great museums or the symphonies and i love that man it's fantastic that it should be but often on the boards there are no artists and they are not making those decisions um is the fact that you are an artist uh uh did that make that tilted to present this or would the kauffman center have done that anyway or or would a normal arts presenter have said yeah well you know we can't do anything theaters are closed and uh let's save some money let's not pay anyone and uh so so what i don't know is that fact that you an artist that you felt we need to do something is that maybe does it make a difference i um i mean i can't speak to what it would be like to not be an artist but i will say that in the leadership of our organization in general there's a great deal of that we have a number of artists both on the board and in leadership positions and i think that that um i think that that is a crucial and important thing i think um our executive director kate sheeran who who also is you know a massive amount of credit for this project goes to her um uh and she is a french horn player she trained as a french horn player um at eastman and yale um and she talks about um and i totally agree with her she talks about the fact that um you know running an organization or arts administration it's like chamber music it's like it's the same thing as chamber music it's getting getting everybody together and you know the same way when you start playing music together and you figure out you know who who are each of these people what are their strengths what are their weaknesses where does someone need to lean in to help somebody else where does this you know it's one sort of joint collaboration and um so i think yes on that and i also think um you know i think it's a um uh i'm trying to remember if it might be a peter sellers quote that i heard at one point the idea that you know the artists you know an artist is somebody who imagines who who looks out into the world and sees has an idea of something that needs to exist there but currently doesn't exist right that there's there's something that when they look at the world they see that there's a gap there's something that should exist there that isn't there yet you know that there's an imagination for that and i think that that is totally crucial to um arts administration as well um so i think all those reasons yeah probably contribute to why um when this first seat of an idea that came from jay dweck to us which he presented it to a number of other institutions i think and it had never really landed and when he came to us and said i'm seeing all these empty storefronts and i just and i i'm feeling so strongly that all these working musicians in the city that are just not um aren't working right now and isn't there some way we can put those two things together couldn't we somehow in enliven storefronts um i think he'd said that to other organizations and and they didn't pick up on it and when he said that to kate and and then we had a joint meeting him and kate and i and we were like yep we can figure that out totally that doesn't sound crazy that sounds like a great idea um i'd also say uh when you're saying about artists in the driver's seat the chairman or chairperson of our board this year is now orly shaham who's a phenomenal pianist who also has two children who attend school at kaufman but you know a renowned concert pianist and also curator and presenter in many places including the chamber music series of the pacific symphony um and so having and we have a number of our artists on the board nikki renee daniels who's a phenomenal uh broadway singer uh natalie joachim who's an incredible composer and flute player who has worked with our students and i think having people like that on your board and in leadership positions having artists there mean that um an idea like this doesn't seem crazy to them you know when you say okay well we we've gotten this funding we're going to take over the storefront they they they know what that is you know they're excited by that so i do i agree i think that it's important to have people who are artists um working on the administrative side of things um and i for some reason there's a general feeling i think or sometimes i feel like there's a misunderstanding that someone who's an artist uh couldn't possibly also handle doing production or administration or or that side of how we accomplish all this which i i think is absolutely not true i think most art making is a combination of you know the imagination of of wanting to create something that doesn't exist in the world and also then all the problem solving that goes along with that and all of the community building that goes along with that and all of the the collaboration and gathering uh people and resources around you to help you realize that work it's it's to me it's a very um direct translation i mean one of the great jazz at lincoln center is a great example of things do work i winton marsalis was in a way else on the driver's seat he said i want to have that theater work a special way to look outside in this bunch of reminders of the club so he created something um that made it also work and made it different and um so i think this is in the significant um um statement that's coming out from you and it's also inspiring we in the theater world also have so many theaters whether it's the public new york theater workshop who knows the second stage and uh where are they all what are we doing what could we be doing and i know we all also under shock this perhaps a lot of times a little bit less money in the theater and the experimental world so it's not as easy as in the art world often or in the classical world um it gets more recognition from society and i think it should be cleared out but still what you guys did is also beyond just the money and it's not right how they could make it you had an idea you recognized it you put it into emotion and something happened and it made a difference and my guess is also you have deep roots in your neighborhood right where you are in the yeah and this this has deepened them i mean this this really um i should also the lincoln square business improvement district which our executive director kate is a member of that of that board um how we found the specific storefront we found ultimately because we were looking at a number of sites and many of them were challenging for different reasons and then she was in a board meeting and just tossed it out um you know to the group there and said we're you know we have this idea we're working on it we've got funding but we haven't found a storefront yet if anybody knows of any that might make sense and just happen to be one of the people on that meeting was connected with milstein and said i think i might know a space and so that you know we we've engaged even more deeply in our community not just audiences and the people in the neighborhood that who've passed by but um but with you know the the business improvement district people now a large property owner in our neighborhood is now has really produced concerts with us i mean i wouldn't have expected to say that to you a year ago that my key collaborator in a concert series is um you know as a property management company but they've really been deep in it with us what are the artists coming in what's the schedule going to look like how long should it run um and then also breads bakery which is just up the street from the theater um they uh got excited when the concert started happening and uh they're music lovers and so then they came to me and said how can we help what can we do and i said well we can't you know because of covid we're being really cautious we don't want to run a full restaurant or anything in here so we weren't really providing craft services for the artists beyond bottled water um i said what if you do coffee and tea for the artists maybe just because since you guys have all those protocols in place and they came back and said no no no we're not just going to do that like yes they can come by and get they just say they're at the storefront we'll give them free coffee we'll give them free tea but we want to do something else for them so every day that there's a concert our house manager goes over to breads tells them how many artists are performing in the storefront and then they get these gift bags full of like bread and like desserts and like like these huge tote bags full of like enough carbs to feed them for two weeks as a thank you um so it's just like um it's also how art really galvanize a community yeah and also that the property management company might truly appreciate or understand the value of art and uh the difference it makes and you guys really made a difference but we talked now a lot of your service of your work and for other artists and we're coming closer to the end of the talk but you're also a composer um so tell us a bit about your work and um i think i asked you i don't know if you have someone to have maybe show us a bit of yoga what are you working on and what inspires you where is your work situated sure so i mean as a composer i it might be why i've ended up in this position of artistic planning at kauffman um uh i'm really inspired by collaborative work mostly i mean i trained as a composer in undergrad and grad school undergrad at indiana university in grad school university of southern california uh and i also did study classical saxophone but my my light bulb really was uh one summer i took an internship up at glimmerglass opera which is upstate new york and my job there was to coordinate a lot of the orchestra work and um assist a couple of the of the assistant coaches um and then uh one of the chorus members tripped uh sprained their ankle on the set for the production for fenchula del west and they didn't have anybody else to step in and i'm not a great singer but i'm an accurate singer um i'm not an operatic singer but i can sing the right notes at the right time and so they asked if i would jump in and that was a real um that was a real light bulb for me because i suddenly was in this professional opera um production and um watching all of the pieces that come together to realize that was sort of when i figured out oh this is the part of composing that i love not sitting in my room all by myself all day toiling over a string quartet or you know was but creating collaborative work and so that really shifted everything and then i studied their dramaturgy a couple more worked as a dramaturg there for a couple more seasons and since then all my work has been working with singers on chamber operas or working with dancers on sound design i've done sound design for immersive theater work as well um but that's really been my primary focus um and the most cur most recent work i'm doing in that vein i had a piece called stay that have been commissioned by on-site opera here in new york that was supposed to open this fall which was an immersive opera theater work um for a house on governor's island and it was with um it's an acapella opera so for eight vocalists uh one of which plays guitar and one of which plays a lot of kitchen equipment and it was for 30 audience members and eight singers and it's sort of like if you take all the elements of an opera and operatic singers and merge those with um a sort of an immersive theater project like a sleep no more or something like that where people can get divided into different rooms we actually controlled where the audiences went uh it wasn't totally free but um sort of created this immersive opera experience um so that was the project that we workshopped right before covet and then obviously hasn't happened yet because we're not getting into some crowded theater with singers in your face uh and then the thing i'm working on right now is a an operatic adaptation of a novel by danis biota called eat the document which is for eight singers and chamber ensemble and uh the novel circles around uh the 70s and the 90s in america and looking at um in the 70s a young couple who has done a series of actions or demonstrations against the vietnam war one of which has accidentally resulted in killing somebody because of planting bombs at different uh corporations house the leaders of corporations houses and they've accidentally killed someone so they've had to go on the run from the fbi so it jumps between there and the 1990s where um mary louise and her previously life and caroline um in her older life she now has a son and she lives as a single mother in the pacific northwest and her son has start is in his teenage years and he's started listening to the music of her childhood but as if it's his music because that's what we do when we're teenagers so he's listening to the beach boys over and on over on repeat and sees a glimmer of something in his mother that makes him realize he doesn't actually know who she is he doesn't know her past he doesn't know anything so it's a piece that we're creating as a series of ep albums with american opera project right now um that will start releasing next season and then eventually it'll lead to a staged production but for now we're developing the work in a recording studio because that's what we can do amazing 30 seconds or a minute of it or or we go on um um but uh let us know about you know about the about the work um what you're doing i'll just let it if you go to um american opera projects um uh and the project is called eat the document um there's a great like a sort of three and a half minute video there that summarizes the project really well but i think just if you if you had the american opera projects eat the document you can find that yeah how wonderful um to see how you know you're able to combine all that create work and that we always do say that um the artwork and organizing work and community work it's so so connected there is no strict division you know if we have learned anything in the contemporary art we now work live no longer in the post-modern world but in the contemporary output where they're hybrid forms of creating out of producing and filmmakers make theater theater people make films filmmakers write articles journalists make a therapy so and i think this is makes it all richer and better and it is in the sense of what echo said it's an open artwork and i think it's a one great open artwork the musical storefront that's an ongoing long performance with some interruptions over the nights and um it is a great new york moment i think that you create on the streets it's unique and it's so meaningful um for everybody to release thank you thank you for staying here and i'm sorry that i didn't know about it before but elizabeth is he said you know this is important and she is she was right tomorrow we have pedja oh wonderful yeah paycheck and he will talk about his work at the tippett rice art center you know him i guess yes i know him very well and also share what they are doing and we are in the music world what we are also taking but i think um we all have to listen and to learn from each other and as you said the storefront idea came also from the theater world the great squats theater a great hungarian theater that left in the 70s they were famous they had a building they performed everything in the storefront people outside would watch where the performance would go on sometimes performers were outside you never knew in that question what's real what's not real the old age-old question that theater poses and um and they always had an eight o'clock scene where the company would sit down and have dinner because the kids of the company they needed some dinner and uh audiences were there and you it was a fantastic time and i think perhaps we are reconnecting to something that might have been lost and that spirit that you present there that is in a way in new york and the city will come back this is a great city over centuries it has been through many many crisis my prediction is there will be perhaps a roaring twenties the wild twenties as they called in berlin um but it will be different and it should be different and this is a way to it i'm sure it also transformed in a way your organization to experience something that out of necessity you created something new and i think it will also change the way you do and think further on so to our audience also thank you for listening and i hope you also found that as significant and meaningful as i did it's a great contribution really also you have to think of it what it means philosophically to say use an empty space don't just have the space done by the expert if you can't get in even for young use the spaces in between open spaces public spaces make partnerships and create something and try also something else so this is an important thing something that perhaps also was missing in a way um how we didn't pay enough attention for those who did but it's a great contribution in the time of corona and i think also with significance for the time after corona the tac as we say here john thank you again really thank you for taking it so seriously and explaining us it's great work what you do with the kaufman center all the people who support it and congratulations and um it's a great contribution to our series thanks to our listeners again for for taking time you know as so much more is going on since we started large march and there were very few of these talks but it's meaningful for us but also as artists need to do great art we also need a great audience good audiences that's important also for the artist that you are there listen and um or for the arts managers in that sense john in his function there to know that people are interested that they do care and support so thank you for taking your time and see you all hopefully tomorrow bye bye john and good luck with everything i'll come soon bye bye great take care | HowlRound Theatre Commons |

QJghyJktI40 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJghyJktI40 | Vigor, Theology and the Coming War? | hey everyone christopher beast here and in today's video we're going to be talking about the theological and mythological connections that exist in vigorous war before transitioning to how these connections seem to suggest a potential post-nuclear war so there's really no more delay let's just get right into this so let's start off with the most obvious one that's adam his name is clearly an illusion of the biblical first man originally it was thought in theory to be that's because he's you know the first character introduced to the lore that had a solid name and story but with season 12 i think there is reason to believe it might be for a different reason there might be a different reason he's named adam and and that could be um in season 10's second to last cassette adam is right on the brink of death he's about to die and then ark revives him back to full health and we don't really know how they do it but i think it was that he actually died and that they used the the revival the ark revival systems to bring him back much like how ellen's are and if this is the case then perhaps the name adam is signifying how he is the first outlander he's the first guy to be a true outlander he's kind of um the forefather of the outlanders um but that is a touch of a stretch continuing from here we can get back to freya and sutra uh freya and the church of shoes that are definitely the big boys in mythological concerns um and i've covered both of their name origins in the past but considering the pretense of season 12 we can make some predictions about their nature first is freya and as i've said her name is significant because she is the sister of frey in norse mythology and frey ultimately fights sutra in the final battle during ragnarok but seeing as her name is that of a god who survives till ragnarok i think it is implied that she will survive her battle against the church that occurred in season 11 and will likely emerge alive um maybe maybe revived by the technology of ark next we have the church and as i've said before sutra is the god of fire and destruction and by worshiping him the church is presenting itself as an agent of chaos and destruction seeing as sutra wishes for the death and destruction of all things if the church learns that art can revive people it is 100 percent going to be against their doctrine and they're going to want to fight and i think really it can be likened akin to the warriors of sovereign god being arc and sutras minions in kind of a semi ragnarokian battle i mean i think it's an interesting situation as for most of it is war the ragnarok event that that is pertinent in in the war has been assumed to be the nuclear apocalypse but what if the ragnarok event is a second battle that is on the horizon and in a battle that is to determine who will rule over the wastes ultimately is it ada and the outlanders or the church and its followers and really what does the different sides of that conflict really mean if they win this possibility of a grand battle also opens up the potential importance of the preacher he's this mysterious character who we still know very very little about and but what if he is the leader of the church you know we don't know who leads the church and it does need a leader and i just find it kind of strange we don't know who the leader is thus far and we still have this character who is the big mystery of the preacher so what if it all comes back together a lot of this though is just pure theory we won't really know until further seasons develop both factions but i find it entertaining to ponder about i really thought this video was it was something that needed to be made because i want to get us all on the train of thought going deeper into the war and that we need to accept the fantasy and the sci-fi aspects of vigorous war because they're here they've been here for a while we need to accept them and we need to learn how to deal with them uh moving forward or else we're really just not gonna be able to talk about the war if we completely ignore them um so that's all i really got for you guys today this has been christopher beast i hope you guys enjoyed and i hope to see you guys next time as well ciao [Music] you | Cristiferbeast | UClhfulg68HsDKDOXtzp-SBQ | 2022-08-13 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 813 | 4,232 |
21H8Ua53R9c | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21H8Ua53R9c | Reclaiming Vacant Properties Conference Vlog: Ariam's POV | hi my name is Arian and I'm here to tell you about my favorite part of the reclaiming vacant properties conference that the grounded team had the honour of attending earlier this month I learned a lot about how lamb loss prevention should really become a part of vacant land reclamation strategies and what I mean by that is how do we prevent the the land the unmaintained and land that we work on from becoming that way and what we know is that a lot of our properties where once homes homes that might have been abandoned and then condemned and torn down and so how do we understand you know what happens before that house gets abandoned what we learned at the conference was that you can quantify a threat of vacancy and blight around properties that may become divested and this is to say properties that you know where someone might pass away and not have a plan / who's going to take care of their asset their land and so then it's it's and and and it's uncared-for and it becomes a negative effect on the community and so how do we understand and help people to understand that they have the opportunity to to stop vacancy before it even begins and that is really about understanding estate planning understanding having a well understanding you know having a plan for how your house or your land is going to produce value for you and your family over generations and what we know is that you know having a well and doing estate planning is something that the communities we we often work in low-income communities of color don't have the luxury to think about that you know any given time and so how can we connect those folks with the resources that will allow them to build long term wealth through the land that they may own or the community land that they may you know exist in in a public space setting so I'm really excited to see how grounded can continue to contemplate that and maybe build that thinking into our work so Thanks | Grounded Strategies | UCgAQjh9fi5UI7MLYxkQPK2Q | 2019-10-15 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 360 | 1,944 |
sBANG6NQoSQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBANG6NQoSQ | Make Soap Clouds in the Microwave - Let's Do Science! | Hello! It's Mr. Higgins with Science with Higgins today we're going to do an experiment where we're going to use soap. That's pretty much the only material you need to get for this but you need two different types of soap, you need ivory which is actually name brand and there's a reason for this which we will get to later and they need some cost effective soap now I went with this brand found it at Walmart and I think it was around 35 cents per bar Ivory is a little bit more expensive and you're gonna want two bars of each so that you can observing and compare what happens after you use the microwave on them so get a plate input each bar on it and make sure that you have permission to do this because this will make the entire microwave smell like soap for around a week so either you like the smell soap or it's just gonnna smell take each piece of soap one bar put it on a plate you will want to wash these plates afterwards because the soap just gets all over the place and microwave it in the microwave for 2 minutes and you can observe two very different ways that the physical properties of the soap change so now we're all done and you can obviously see that the ivory soap had a much much different reaction to heat in the microwave because what the microwave was doing we will get to in a second and the reason for that has to do with how the soaps are made now here's a here to zoom in the soap a picture of it and if you look at the ivory so you really see these he's a little rough patches and the reason that those are rough is because Ivory soap is injected with air and as the air expands when the microwave heat the water inside the bar it causes the soap to balloon up and become kinda like a big white cloud but the cheaper soap doesn't really have air injected into it and so what you see with expansion of that soap is the water turning the vapor and in both soap the waters is going to turn to vapor but you get much more expansion of the soap in the ivory now I'm gonna head outside and totally just crush these because you really should experience that difference in how they feel an observation now I'm outside ooooh and will take the generic soap first and were going to break off half of it and you can really kinda feel that it's still soap now to make sure you don't get any of this in your eyes soap in your eyes will hurt then compare that can't take it off the plate it looks like compare that to this Ivory soap which is a powder now and getting all over the place I just told you not getting your eyes in and look what I'm doing and the Ivory soap when I'm doing this , and I'm going to have to show it down sidewalk here reacts much differently then generic soap, which didn't have any air in it generic soap falls to the ground but the light fluffy Ivory soap is breaking up into little tiny pieces and blowing away in this by Nebraska wind I told you I show you I would show you this, you can see that I've got soap kinda just speeding down the front of my apartment and I'm going to help out with that by kinda doing this Oh, no! and like snow it blows away Yeah soap!

-5LjQEtNZNw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5LjQEtNZNw | Abraham Hicks snippet: A Little Bird Story -- Hear the Call of Your Inner Being | after was talking with friends the other day that we're talking about baby birds in a nest and has to remember so clearly one day Jerry pointed out to Esther that a bird had laid a nest in the fern on the front porch was hanging from a chain and he said let's not water this fern for a while and allow this mother to use this as her home and so they walked past that nest many times everyday and enjoyed the idea of the nest and then one day the little birds hatched they were so cute they had no feathers just that falls and Jerry and Esther were very aware of them and very respectful of them and gave the mother plenty of feeling of well-being as they went way way around they got bigger and bigger and mother and father brought them things to eat and one day Jerry said Esther come quick come quick and so they stood back and they watched and the mother was over on the fence about as far away as that blue wall is from where we are standing and she stood on that post over there and she called to her babe and one by one they climbed up the chain and then flew to her Esther said I always thought that mother just kicked them out of the nest but this mother over there calling calling with confidence and certainty and no split energy whatsoever and these little chicks who had learned no resistance along their trail received what she was broadcasting and each of them flew right to the post that she was standing on and so we want you to envision your inner being over there where you really are and where everything that you want everything that you're able to comprehend right now is and we want you to hear the call that's what the receptive mode is it's hearing the call of the non-resistant vibration is hearing the certainty of what you are wanting | awesomecreatorshub | UCoU_zlIMiX0o_Zd-7KCLhFg | 2018-12-22 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 340 | 1,761 |
5NONU-GpQ88 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NONU-GpQ88 | Are Friendships Conditional? | sometimes your friendships are going to be tough and you got to ride the wave so you make it another 20 years but let me tell you this and I mean this with all of my love if you do not Unconditionally Love that person then yeah the friendship's conditional how often you talk when you see them how often you agree how good you make each other feel if your love is conditional that friendship is conditional but if you unconditionally love someone you're going to ride the wave into the next 20 years because you're going to see like okay we're just having a moment we're having a moment the Friendship isn't conditional but if your friends say well I don't talk to you every day so like I can't be friends with you that's a conditional friendship and that's fine that's valuable I have friends who are like hey I can't talk to you more than once a month maybe every 2 months is that okay and if it's not okay I understand but I I it's got to be conditional right my unconditional friendships are not going to say I need to talk to you every day cuz like that doesn't make sense to me there are clever ways and not so clever ways to gossip the clever way would be to say something like I'm so worried about Agnes's drinking I genuinely hope she doesn't end up losing this job as well the non clever way would be to say say something like did you guys hear Agnes started drinking again guess it's just a matter of time until she gets fired I'll explain that more in depth later in this video as well as female competition jealousy and more but to get there let's first take a look at how we got to where we are the first half of this video will be based on this article our grandmother's Legacy challenges faced by female ancestors leave traces in modern women's same-sex relationships and then I'll share some of my personal experience throughout most of human history women have heavily depended on their male romantic partners for the survival of not only themselves but you know of their offspring naturally other women were their primary competitors as each woman wanted to secure a committed High earning partner as an impoverished man meant lesser chance of them in their offspring surviving now men experience competition to you but women feel especially competitive jealous and experience distress when it comes to looking attractive since this is what men throughout history have value the most in women in other words it wasn't just women that felt threatening but attractive women in particular so generally women from a young age prefer not to be surrounded by friends who surpass them in physical appearance and if we look at two female friends the less physically attractive friend is more likely to have a heightened romantic riverly within the friendship and so attractive women show a Heen preference for gay male friends and part because they perceive gay men as more likely to provide honest and helpful romantic advice than other women now I want to chime in here with a quick anecdote so once upon a time I was living with a bunch of models like actual working models all incredibly gorgeous and prior to moving in I hadn't seen them I just knew their own models but I did feel intimidated I had this preconceived notion that they just wouldn't be very nice well actually they were the nicest group of girls that I had ever lived with and prior to that I had lived with other you know normal looking average looking girls you know no wonder everyone thinks I talk [ __ ] fast everyone talks so slow I love her I almost want to speed her up but it's already a short video bro she is so sweet why is she paus between every word anyway I can tell the full story of that another time if you're interested now let's get back to this article now as women we might not only be threatened by other attractive women but also by women who signal sexual openness this is because in yo this b-roll short across cultures men are more likely to commit infidelity and to engage in casual sex and so when other women you know dress provocatively for example we might respond with more hostility and rude comments than we would if that same person was dressed more conservatively we're also less willing to introduce a woman who exhibits cues of sexual openness to our boyfriends now this whole okay very interesting bubble definitely very I always say straight girls got lots of problems I feel like straight women are suffering um women who's who Center their life around men you know what I mean like damn that's so interesting this bubble gives me anxiety I'm going be real with you this video does give me anxiety already like I'm I'm anxious about the way she's talking cuz I'm like like what is this what is this what is this what is this I come from a bubble where my partner and I both have like different gendered friends we're both nerds we live in nerd communities like they're like you know Maiden says is she saying the gossip is male centering well not just the gossip but she's well I don't know what she's like the this example is the one that's giving me the most anxiety the fact that she's saying like oh sometimes you might not want to bring your hot more sexually open and female friends like to meet your boyfriend I'm like what is my friend hitting on my boyfriend cuz I'm going to cut her out of my life like what are we talking about I'm watching Love is Blind and Sarah an sends a DM and I'm like cut her off this isn't appropriate like I've already warned my friends if you ever say anything to me like oh if your marriage ends out of my life or if if some again like oo this is I obviously I know the bubble I know the bubble right right Cas says I've seen these games get played it's real oh it's real for sure bro it's definitely a bubble but I just think these people are all [ __ ] toxic as [ __ ] you know what I mean Sage says but she's describing exactly what the girls girls movement is happening happening is trying to combat I think the girls girls movement falls into a trap though I do I think the girls girls are so toxic mostly cuz they're mad at me you know the men aestel girls girls communities they're so toxic I think they swung too hard they swung the pendulum too hard they [ __ ] up I do I think they're trying to counterbalance like guys just [ __ ] don't give a [ __ ] I feel like the Girls Girls Bubbles Center their life around men that's what I was trying to get through on the last panel and I didn't I didn't do it well the last panel I did with the girls I didn't do it well but I feel like the girls girls bubble centers their life around men in a combative way versus this bubble is more in a pck me way do you get what I'm saying I feel like the girls girls bubble I'm going to say it again is is combative against men and censors their life around men and this bubble censors their life around men's approval because it's like a pck me bubble and both of them feel weird to me who cares about men this much not me not even my gay friends I just feel like men cannot matter this much after a certain level of introspection true even when it's not in person so women who are exposed to attractive fashion models who you know assume flirtatious and sexual openness they experience height anded jealousy about their relationship maybe I'm just too ugly for this bubble maybe that's it do you think we just live in like a mid bubble are we all too mid you know what I mean I just don't believe any of these people or maybe I just don't care bro maybe I just don't care like I just genuinely feel so superficial and feel compelled to but anyways let's be open dgate and ostracize those models now this suggests that female fale psychology is welld designed to detect and wor threatening samesex Rivals from undermining their Partnerships now although to most people today literally one of my friends was like can you talk to my girlfriend so she knows you're not into me and I was like ew and it is stupid but it's like a game they play and I had to like reassure his girlfriend that like I'm not into him and it was so annoying cuz I'm like this is dumb but they think it's cute they're like oh my God like I just like [ __ ] at least in the west losing a male partner isn't typically detrial to our survival the historical cost of losing a male partner and therefore our own and our children's access to resources and survival is still deeply ingrained in Us by the way she's a very pretty person like I like her aesthetic and her setup it's like very nice but why does she seem sad is that her aesthetic she seems so sad you you know yaa says yesterday you called us fat and now today you're calling us mid this feels toxic no no no no no we might be fat and we might be mid but we are thriving in our joy okay we're the least self Haring okay we're the most stable and we're the best person to have in other people's lives because we're happy I'll take it I'll be fat and mid to be happy bro I'll be fat and mid to be joyful I'll be fat mid let's go k fat mid and happy that's our new saying on this channel we're fat mid and happy [ __ ] it bro okay girl I go to bed every day happy I wake up every day happy and that's all I got to say these videos feel depressing as [ __ ] I ain't depressed enough to make this kind of content girl I kind of feel like I need some therapy after all of that and we're only getting started oh you too well good thing that this video is in paid partnership with better help the pl platform that connects you with a therapist goodness who was trained to listen and give you helpful unbiased advice over 4 million people have use better help listen to you help you canf we to find one.com first month love that wait what happened what is this text the right person doesn't take energy the right person gives Energy across ages and cultures you know women girls have been much less physically aggressive than boys and men and this according to this article is because historically women did not want to risk being physically harmed or Worse put there Raven says okay but actually there's a phenomenal on the traditionally attracted females are sadder oh yeah I thank God every day I'm not a 10 I thank God every day I'm not a 10 tens are sad bro pretty people are some of the saddest [ __ ] people I know ugly people are some of the bitterest people I know ugly people are bitter and pretty people are sad and I thank God I am mid every [ __ ] day I got an ass for days and I got happiness for Life bro their child at risk however women are equally if not more likely to engage in indirect aggression so what is indirect aggression it's basically the attempt to disrupt a person's social opportunities and relationships using tactics such as you know spreading rumors and gossiping and disclosing secrets and ostracism and it's usually quite effective you know since we tend to dislike people who we have learned negative information about especially if that information comes from multiple sources it's believed to be more credible and as women we do experience social exclusion more frequently as well as online rumors and cyber bullying and so on now while hearing all of this might make you want to sign up to therapy and you should go to better health.com Lana us women are also each other's biggest allies you know we ooh I want all of those flowers highly value our same-sex friendships and we strongly desire intimacy Within These relationship and women more so than men experience high levels of worry and distress about potential friendship abandonment or replacement see historically having strong relationships with other women also meant survival you know both for oneself and for one's Offspring women relied on I'm not going to lie it's really hard for me to pay attention to the way she talks I never got into her content I like again her aesthetic tells my brain I should like it but when I try to watch it I think this is why I every day I'm more and more convinced my nerd urgency just does not let me pay attention to these things do you think do you guys like the way she is it her caner is it like the way the it's like the way she speaks she's like again aesthetically I I like the aesthetic why but when she talks this is yeah this is I'm always going to be fascinated at how my brain I'm not hearing anything I want to know about her life I don't like this gener maybe it's too vague is it just too vague I also don't know the goal of the conversation I think I'm lost oh that's what it is sorry this is my ner of Virgin thing what is the goal of this conversation the lies of female friendships competition and jealousy okay so we're following a train of thought that's going to lead us to her disproving the bubble that says female friendships are competitive and jealous okay got it on midwives and you know the whole it takes a village thing we also know that social support should I speed it up I'll speed it up you guys seem like you want me to speed up let's speed it up is strongly linked to Better Health and increase longevity now one thing that I found to be particularly interesting when I ah yeah made it that she sounds like she's so bored so I instantly think she's boring yeah why does she seem bored with her own video she's dead in the eyes she's got dead eyes I'm assuming that's a trick right she's very popular guys she has like a million subscribers a lot of people know who she is do you think the dead in the eyes thing is like on purpose article perap because I hadn't really I don't know thought about it before that was the part that discusses how women relative to men were more or more strongly prefer equal distributions of resources and power over unequal distributions so for instance among children girls are more uncomfortable than boys When selecting group leaders in adolescence girls are more distressed than boys by friends surpassing them in popularity or close friendships and we assume successful or popular females to be entitled popular girls are often disliked ridiculed um ostracized and women more often fear that their female friends admiration will turn into Envy or resentment and so they minimize their successes to avoid coming across as proud now we see this desire for even distribution across the board and here are some examples both women and men preferred male over female leaders women expect female leadership candidates to perform worse at their job and less likely to be promoted female employees report more support from their male than females supervisors and there is much more you know even within Sports where competition is you know the explicit goal female athletes show less positive or friendly behaviors towards the opposing team following a match than do male athletes so what do we seek for in our female friendships it seems that women strongly prioritize kindness in their same friendships and compared to Men We Hold higher expectations for our friends just overall especially for trust and empathic understanding loyalty and commitment and we tend to have a stronger desire to support or to provide support and reach Insurance to Friends in Need and girls and women who don't support their friends tend to have fewer friends and this standard for kindness is especially high for popular girls because otherwise they might be perceived as threats compared to men we are also more likely to question our friendships if they do not live up to certain standards or signs of devotion such as friends who you know cancel plans fail to stand up for us or disclose our secrets so basically any cues of disloyalty and now touching on jealousy girls report stronger jealousy over their friends relationships with others along with heightened monitoring of their friendships and a similar pattern is observed among adults with women feeling immense jealousy over their you know best friends forming a new and potentially more intimate relationship with a samex peer in part because we fear that our friend is now going to tell this new friend our secrets and potentially ruin our reputation now this might also seem quite okay maybe it's just me but my friends and I have different friend groups and I know for a fact that when I tell my Bessie something she's telling her Bessie something about me and I'm telling my besti something about her like there is a deep understanding that we go I have a best friend I have multiple best friends and when those best friends tell me something obviously we talk to our other friends about those things not to gossip but sometimes to gossip let's be real but also to like talk to somebody to talk about the thing because they're not involved in it because sometimes those friends give us a thing that's like oh that's a heavy burden I need to talk to somebody else about this but also they don't know each other they're not connected like I'm my friends are not friends with my friends they're never going to meet unless they're meeting at my birthday party which they will never do like my friends do not know my friends so I assume that my bestie would be telling their bestie their other bestie because they have more than one bestie about or even their friends like hey I'm going through this thing with Britney can I talk to you about it yeah obviously what I'm not oh you can't tell anyone about me like you can only tell your therapist like go talk to your other friends about it bro brainstorm with them and then talk to me back see if they have a new tool to get okay so it would make sense if my friends we're all friends together maybe but even then like I'm I think I get this from my family we're all pretty open so like I have nothing to hide so like if my best friend had another best friend that wouldn't be a threat to my relationship with them because like our relationship is specific like I'm not threatened by my one sibling having a friendship with my other sibling like we're all siblings I guess I'm confused but also I get it what a bubble okay okay I'll get it it you know because there are incentives to compete with other women for high quality romantic Partners as well as incentives to form strong bonds with other women and so ideally you would you know get the benefits of male Investments as well as female cooperation support and now this article did point out one oh wait okay good Insight Raven said says this all comes from the scarcity mindset I struggled making friends all my life so when my best friend would make new friends I felt jealous okay that's fair that's a good mindset okay so that allows us an idea of like what who's okay okay girls girls groups can be are groups be like this it's super toxic competitive and jealous it can be yeah yeah yeah okay so everyone's on a journey I will say I've always had like I've had issues with friendships and stuff where you're like hey what are we doing are we growing in different directions like what's the conversations okay I think you learned this is a part of growing and learning is like what does it mean to be a friend with somebody and I think it's complicated and it's never going to be the same none of us are going to describe exactly what friendship means to us in the same way which is why it's personal to the Consciousness right it is personal to the Consciousness so I guess like uh H okay yeah I can see the struggle in this regard yeah yeah yeah I don't struggle making friends cuz my requirements for friends are pretty low I don't struggle for finding intimate friends I've been really lucky in that way but ultimately I only have three close friends and everyone else are close but not like 2 a.m. call close so there's like a line of vulnerability but then even with my other friends I share a version of vulnerability with them because like they can see my vulnerability more than even times my inner circle can because like this see even my inner circle has a hard time seeing every part of my vulnerability so I have friends that can see it and we can have a symbiotic I'm seeking symbiosis I'm always seeking a symbiotic relationship with people and that's what I think the Friendship is built off of right so I understand I also understand being forced into friendship and then realizing 20 years into friendship like how do I end this friendship CU like I'm ready to move on I think you have to learn how to break up with your friends okay okay okay okay I'm brainstorming I can see this I even know people with tons of friends and an inner circle who still feel lonely which I think is a relationship with their Consciousness and they're lacking it right they keep thinking like men will solve it women will solve it but like no it's a relationship can you imagine having all the friends all the Inner Circle having people but like still lonely it's a relationship with your Consciousness so I also do think I come from a bubble that told me like female friendships would be competitive and jealous and to be honest with you like I didn't feel like women were in general I felt like some were women were specifically in my opinion specific men and specific women really [ __ ] suck and it's a specific category of person and if you're not in that category you're pretty great men and women are pretty great friends I've had great male friends great female friends and the only thing that made them shitty friends was they happened to be in a certain category of person that was often bitter and jealous and insecure and um suffocating and inappropriate so it wasn't really ever about gender I have good male and good female friends the ones who were [ __ ] were just like that's just the kind of person they were didn't had it just didn't have to do with their gender tactic if you will um that is sometimes used which can be deceiving and that was what I was talking about in the intro namely how you appear to others and so for example you can gossip in a way that appears kind and sympathetic and that can actually get you to be more liked simply by wording it in a way that does not appear malicious and this article ends with explaining how women are often more aggressive than they themselves believe that they are we often self deceive our vicious motivation so in other words we may actually be unaware of our involvement in gossip and relational aggression because we truly believe that we are speaking out of actual concern and sympathy for our targets now will of course link article below I really recommend that you read it it was really interesting and I could only talk about parts of it here otherwise this video would have been way too long now while reading this article or you know listening to this video parts of it can be quite uncomfortable right I mean like no one wants to believe that they ever put other women down or that they are are malicious in any way and we don't want F what's the difference between putting people down who happen to be women and putting women down cuz I think there's a huge difference right I think it is a huge difference to say oh you put men down all the time and like you put down certain men and also gossip [ __ ] I love Gossip Girl I'm going to drink that tea every day girl [ __ ] you but also I would say that [ __ ] to your face and you don't believe me but girl test me go ahead and test me girl I'll say it right to your [ __ ] face and you won't test me because you actually don't want me say it to your [ __ ] face so you block you [ __ ] [ __ ] okay test me [ __ ] test me I'll say it right now girl oh I want to be tested oh I love being tested [ __ ] test me okay so just okay friendships to be betrayed in a negative light now the article in itself of course is not suggesting that we are all a bunch of Highly comp I don't make up [ __ ] about no one that's the difference don't lie about anybody don't [ __ ] lie that's it that's the huge difference don't lie about people it's [ __ ] [ __ ] up don't lie about people don't do that it's [ __ ] up there I just fix fixed 99% of the world's problems don't lie about people don't lie you can give opinions you can say I'm not sure but this is how I feel you can say this is my observation do not lie do not lie boom I just saved 99% of your [ __ ] friendships competitive jealous [ __ ] bricks but it does shed some light on some of the things that I believe many of us don't lie so your gossip is is honest gossip is shitty because people lie don't [ __ ] lie about people the reason gossip is shitty is cuz you're lying you dumb [ __ ] stop lying about people you can gossip just don't lie have experience and it's interesting learning about where certain behaviors might stem from and most importantly to hopefully detect some of these behaviors in ourselves and work on them and now I myself have personally absolutely experienced you know jealousy um sabotage aeration and at the same time I absolutely cannot with a clear conscience say that I myself have never taken part in those things now of course I have especially when I was an insecure teenager I think we all have and now I think we all have but to different extents and I think that's important so there's a big difference between you know oh I was a bit of a prick when I was 16 because I would be jealous of the most beautiful girl in my class and I would secretly be afraid that my boyfriend would want her more than me versus I'm a grown adult woman and I can't stand seeing beautiful women and I actively secretly try to put them down there's no historical or biological excuse for being a prick and now i' would like to share with you some of my personal experiences when it comes to female friendships specifically some of the comment traits of female friendships that fizzled out versus some of the comment traits of friendships that remained now I want you to share your experiences in the comments as well because I would love to read it now lard okay so let's begin with the commentary of friendships that fizzled out the emotional dumper you know the type of friend who genuinely has no interest in you you meet up you spend the first hour listening to the event and then in the midst of it they kind and then they burn the bridge with you I'm just kidding that's a joke but yeah that's absolutely that's why people think I'm close to them cuz they call me they emotionally dump they go hey how you doing and I go I'm fine and they go man I feel so close to you and I'm like mhm yeah I know cuz you just emotionally dumped on me but like we're not having a friendship you know we're not having a friendship you know what I mean um I'm frustrated by those friendships but also they happen all the time it's just normal it's mostly people who are traumatized that's why I say everything is trauma I'm like that's what trauma is trauma is calling a person and thinking your friendship is predicated and how much they've trauma dumped onto you I'm used to it people just do it because I'm a good listener but like that's why I say like I'm not close to people we're not close you just told me your secrets we're not close you don't know my secrets we ain't close kind of realize that they should probably ask about you and so they say anyway how are you and you feel like you have about I don't know 15 seconds to word vomit until they lose interest and start talking about themselves again they ask for your advice that they never take by the way Doom says when are you going to make more psychology type videos I'm not a psychologist hello hello I don't do psychology bro this is a therapy Channel no see you made me [ __ ] up this isn't even this is a philosophy Channel you made me [ __ ] up this is not a psychology Channel I'm not going to make psychology type videos there are plenty of therapists you can watch watch Dr Konda watch Dr K you can watch actual people in therapy and they need someone to complain to and that person is you hooray the friend who hates your happiness for no reason the friend who hates your happiness for no reason oh yeah that's bitter dude that's not good that's not good that's not good vibes man I don't know a lot of people who ever got close to me who were like this though uh trauma dumpers for sure that's pretty common that's pretty common um but that friend the one who's always bitter for your happiness that's just bad moods bro strongly hold the belief that good friends are people you are excited to share good news with the opposite are friends who will find false in anything you share they supposedly get a bad vibe from your new Negative Nancy bro Debbie Downer boyfriend despite never meeting him they criticize your promotion and try to give you a reason not to be excited about it eventually you stop feeling like sharing good news with them and then you stop feeling like sharing any news with them the friend who was in a constant state of Crisis ooh exhausting ooh what's the difference from the trauma dumper and the friend who's always in crisis yeah they're kind of almost overlap ooh the people I think about are sort of similar oh the friend who's in a consens of crisis but oh the trauma dumper ooh o that's good okay I think sometimes those two overlap and I think sometimes they they can be different M mhm oh the friend who's in the state this is the one I have a three three time rule I have a three time three thing rule so I go okay we've tried to deal with this issue more than three times we now have to make a decision if we're never going to talk about again you're going to seek therapy or you're going to seek a professional's intervention because obviously I cannot handle this you are crisis too often red flag and I would put my foot down and say with peace and love boundaries mhm there's always which they're going to internalize as abandonment and then they're going to look at you and say you're being a bad friend and I'm going to say I you're being a bad friend first by literally always being on crisis and calling me like inappropriately way too many times during the day bro your life cannot sometimes I think people seek out the thrill of their life being a mess because it makes them feel like they're alive a crazy story to tell some drama they somehow got themselves involved in and oh they did not respond for a week because they lost their phone and now they need to borrow some money from you because they spent it all on a night out and they did not nope nope useless useless people Ken says what's the line between trauma dumping and sharing suffering with your friends though venting versus complaining expecting your F putting too much on your friends treating your friend like a therapist inappropriate treating your friend like somebody who's obligated even past their own like healthy point of paying attention to your needs unhealthy absolutely not right so there's a difference between saying hey do you have enough energy do you have enough spoons for me to share this thing it's kind of a big deal it's okay if you don't have the energy right now and then somebody saying like you have to call I need your attention I you you have to do this you're my friend it's like whoa like again not taking advantage of each other the difference is always going to come down to are you taking advantage of this person because there does come a point where you're taking advantage of someone and there does come a point where you just need the help and like that person's willing to help you so I think that that's what I pay attention to is like consent and are you taking advantage of this person because otherwise like your friends are more than happy to hear your problems dude but sometimes it's just inappropriate and sometimes your friends are enablers remember some of your best friends have the best intentions and will enable you to trauma dump and like Cross Personal boundaries because they are like the validation seeking you coming to them for help so even during Co I always tell the story about my two besties who like reached out and I was like hey girls we're getting to the point where now this needs like therapy like therapy like you need a therapist cuz now you're asking me to do emotional labor that like I'm not I don't even know this much about the human psychology or brain to be able to help you as a friend this is above my pay grade and they're like holy [ __ ] yeah and they both got therapy because eventually when you come to your friends and you can't problem solve something somebody needs to enact a professional something needs to happen you know what I mean and I know friends get offended people get offended like what do you mean I have to go to therapy it's like well we've been having a problem it's been 6 months it's been 2 years it's been some time and every time we talk we're running into this problem or every time I talk to you I feel like you just trauma dumper every time I'm like starting to like like be afraid to talk to you because I know it's going to be a bad energy you know when you look forward to talking to your friend you're like can't wait they just called and then the relationship changes to like I know when I talk to them they're going to criticize the way I dress today or ooh I don't want to talk to them they're going to criticize how I talked today or like oh I don't want to talk like they're going going to crit you know what I mean it's like I don't want to call my friend cuz I know they're just going to like be negative okay so you try to problem solve it hey every time I talk to you you kind of tra trauma dump on me or like hey every time we talk I kind of feel like worried or anxious or I start feeling like a great like instead of looking forward to it I start to feel overwhelmed with it um could we like talk about why I feel that way every time we're about to call each other or hey every time I go to call you I feel like you don't want to talk to me because you'd rather talk to somebody else it's like okay we need to be able to talk this through but if there's like a line of communication that's not going through then I go okay somebody needs therapy we need a mediator we need to radically accept something is not working I do this with my siblings with my inner circle sometimes we're just like not vibing no big deal let's take some some time off and we'll talk again in a few months because sometimes you're just at different parts of your life uh sometimes people are in their trauma sometimes you're just doing different things with your life that's different than also um a friend you need to cut off like a friend like I'm not going to cut off my inner circle but a friend you want to cut off it's like hey dude every time we're together I feel like I regret it that's a me thing but because it's a me thing I also got to cut myself off from this interaction so it might not even be a them thing but it's the way you feel when you're around them that you're really paying attention to you know not even them it's not about blaming them like oh they're the reason our friendship ended you know I would like to say hey when I'm around you I feel this way and I'm instead of blaming you for the way I feel I would like to invite you to be yourself and if being yourself and being myself is causing a rift and conflict we can't solve I'm also okay with us wishing each other the best and moving on and doing something else with life but people don't want to hear that because they want to hear you're rejecting me you're saying I'm the problem well again I don't want to say you're the problem I want to say we are having a problem because the the two people that we are went together cause conflict good people can cause conflict together and unless you're willing to change and I'm certainly not then what are we doing now of course you might be willing to compromise and that's also okay right in this situation the kinds of friendships she's describing she is describing like I think the UN redeeming kinds of friendships the ones that are super super toxic and without great intervention probably won't be helpful you know think about the fact that they would cost money to take a cab home and they flake on your plans again even though you are literally standing outside the bar waiting for them the male obsessed one it seems like they oh my God the male obsessed one meaning centering their life all around men these are all I agree with these all red flags I agree with her here value nothing more in life than male validation anywhere that you go is so that they can meet cute guys all the clothes that they buy it's to make the voice there and they don't mind glancing over your boyfriend once in a while and joke about stealing him but hey it's just a joke the bad influence oh I was thinking of a different Trope I think I think I was thinking of a different Trope but I do I do agree in general like toxicity is toxicity is toxicity and people who are going to encourage you to be like less better are frustrating but people who also are way into your business are also not helpful I have very strong boundaries with my friends like it's your business I trust you you do that like you do you I trust you to do you but also you know if you need me to give input I'm going to be honest so don't ask unless you mean it when you're simply not better or thriving in any capacity with them perhaps you become more superficial you drink more you make careless decisions and yes you are responsible for yourself but I would s clear are people who encourage and celebrate poor decisions the Ser same same same fragile friendship I've had best guy friends best girlfriends and in my experience generally speaking speaking the guy friends felt more reliable you know after an argument I had no fear of a friendship fizzling out or if they were going to start dissing themselves for me now is it fixable am I still invited to their birthday will I now be ostracized in school whereas with guy friends I didn't have those concerns it always felt more stable more like a sibling type of relationship where you just know that you can show up and you can call and an argument doesn't change anything as the saying goes if it's fragile let it break different morals and values I like that if it's fragile let it break I like that mhm I I like that it's important for me to know that not wait what was this one you can show up and you can call and an argument doesn't change anything as the saying goes if it's fragile let it break different morals and values ooh um nah my friends are diverse and I like that they have different morals and values than me but that's why I say I love them unconditionally but girl I do not like every part of my friends and family I love my friends but I do not agree with their values and morals no I got a diverse friend group so let's see what she says about this my instinct is to say no but I can understand how difficult it is it is very hard to have friends with different values than you let me tell you the debates are rampant it's important for me to know that not all friendships F allow just because you know something serious happened or because someone is a bad person sometimes you just no longer see eye to eye sometimes you come to learn that there are some differences between you two that are too important to ignore so let's say for example that you really value working hard um discipline self-improvement personal growth education and they have no interest in any of those things and they might be very interested in other things that you don't value so this type of misalignment could be a call for a friendship breakup yeah I mean I think people just naturally grow apart I don't know if I would associate that with values I was thinking more deeply sounded values and morals like there are types of people I don't ever want to get closer to but some of my friends are very different from me and they're willing to do things that I wouldn't be caught dead doing peace and love absolutely not I would be mortified and embarrassed but also like who the [ __ ] cares like that's your life it's not mine but also I want a friendship where I can be like but also okay yeah um yeah I just think we have different thresholds for tolerance that's how I look at is like what's my threshold for tolerance like I can tolerate a lot of diversity but not every form of diversity in my friendships like there are some types of people I do not want around me you know what I mean so if he says if you describe a friendship as fragile you were never friends I think it's specific like I think new friends are casual friends but all of it is friendship but I do think like this goes back to the guts and griffith conversation were they ever friends like I would say of course but some people would say a real friend wouldn't do that to you but I would say a new friend might do that to you because you were never friends but an old friend is more likely to betray you in know in some ways than new friends and that's why the sting hurts so bad if a new friend betrays you it's a lot less hurtful like who the [ __ ] cares this some stranger who just came into your life and they're like burning the bridge with you like who cares but if an old friend burned the bridge it'd be like whoa why are you burning the bridge after 20 years dude why you burning the bridge like what are you doing that's much more hurtful and I still think it's your friend like a new friend who burns the bridge early is never was never like your real friend an old friend that burns the bridge holy [ __ ] what just happened not only were they your friend but you're about to [ __ ] hold a funeral for that friendship that's how I look at it ending a 20-year friendship is a devastating change in a life whether you know it's for your betterment or not that is a much more impactful situation than a friendship that just started who [ __ ] cares what a new person in your life does right like it doesn't matter but the person that's been there through and thin [ __ ] ending a friendship is painful I would argue if you've had deep friendships ending that friendship can be one of the most sorrowful and mourning like deepest mourning of your life it is so valuable to me maybe that's love why I love anime so much because the Friendship relationships they have in anime is like deep and meaningful I feel that way about my friends I would be so sad even if you're not Inner Circle if you guys are just people that I call friends if I enjoy your company and I feel like we have a connection I would be devastated some of those people I've known for six 10 12 years if they were like hey I think I want to move on I'd be like oh my God I respect your consent but also I'm devastated like I respect your consent first and foremost but also I will mourn this connection you know I will mourn this connection you know what I mean but if it's like a new person like girl I get I don't know you yet some comment rights of female friends that on I still have in my life we genuinely like each other I can genuinely sense that they are happy for me and yes I think that's a big deal too I genuinely like you like that's a big deal I'm equally happy for them I want them to do well I want them to be happy and when they're not when they're hurting my heartaches and I want to help them and when they light up I light up there is a mutual deep caring for one another there is consistency they're not going to disappear for a while and then come back and I never have to wonder where we stand you know if we're still friends ooh um I would cuz nerd of Virgin here I would qualify them coming and going as like I don't need to qualify where we are in our friendship because I already have the stability but also um yes you you don't have to question where you stand with them I think is important but also people go through [ __ ] there's mental breaks people have like mental health crisises people are like traumatized so obviously it's more like um some friendships are worth fighting for and others aren't and it's up to you to decide which ones are worth fighting for if they still like me if they're sad or mad about something or if they're not telling me because I know that they would tell me and I would tell them if there's ever a disagreement uh I don't need Perfection for my friendships like I just need people to be people you know and we will air it out and we'll move on and it's just easy like that there's nothing to be gained from one another there are no disingenuous incentives I don't need them for anything they don't have money or connections or followers or clout or anything like that that I could benefit from I am with them and there with me purely for who we are yeah obviously yeah I think friendships and connections and deep relationships are contingent on the relationship you're having with a Consciousness not contingent on work and other things that's why I say I have work friends that's why I say have friend friends that's cuz like I love work but if work didn't exist we wouldn't be friends like I love you so much but yeah like if if work didn't exist would we be friends no if you weren't my sibling would we be friends like I love my siblings for who they are but we also had to choose each other because there was this like assumed obligation that we would be close but at the same time I think those friendships are still incredibly valuable they're just like a little bit more casual until you take them and make them more personal like I want to spend more concered time with you I want to make an effort I want to you know dedicate more resources to this friendship something like that you know uh sleepy says would you find it important uh Becca says would you find it important to update a friend that comes and goes like a major change such as a new partner um it depends on the Friendship so I have friends I do not okay what's the definition of comes and goes because I have friendships um I I'm not sure I'm using comes and goes the same way I'm worried I'm using the words differently you know what I mean I think I'm using the words differently comes and goes uh cuz I have friendships like we don't talk for like 10 years or we don't talk for 5 years or but I love them like why wouldn't I talk to them again I just we're busy we're doing other things like I have friends I haven't spoken to in like four five six years but if they messaged me I'd be stoked to hear from them I just they're busy they're adults they're doing different things so is that a friendship that comes and goes or is that just a friendship where I respect the fact that like we're just doing different things right now like we didn't end the Friendship so the Friendship is still there unless we end the friendship like the Friendship is still there to me you know what I mean like I'm for the most part I don't really ghost people so I feel like uh now friends do grow apart and relationships naturally end I guess I'm not sure what it means they come and go fishy says I have friends that come and go but when we are together it's like no time has passed yeah is that what you mean is that they must mean something I think they mean I think they mean something else I think this bubble means like the friends that are so inconsistent and floppy you never know where you stand with them please help me K says I spoke to a friend I didn't talk to for seven years around Christmas time and it was like nothing has changed exactly yeah mon says de have friends where we rarely talk and see each other but the dynamic is the same okay so they must is that what they mean or they talking about that kind of friendship where it's like hey bro like you ditched me and then you came back into my life like we were still friends even though obviously to me it ended do they is is what could they mean I'm trying to I'm try I'm thinking must mean something different yeah cuz some people feel like when it um somebody who was that who asked about updating a friend um I think some people feel like how am I close to you if I'm not updating you every day about my life but I don't believe that I don't think I need an update every day of your life but if big things happen please call me with the good news like if it's a if it's a romantic relationship that is significant call me and talk to me about it if you're just dating someone cuz you like you want a new date every week like you don't have to talk to to me about those dates I want you to share with me when you want to share with me like if you have something you want to tell me call me we'll talk about it but obviously if you're the kind of friend that wants to call me every day to talk about what you ate like peace and love girl I've got to make a living so if you're the kind of friend that wants to talk to me every day about like what you had for dinner like obviously I might not have time for that conversation but if you're like in a relationship and it's significant and a big life change happened and you want to talk to me DM me girl and be like girl I have a life update call me and I'm like okay hey right but like some people also some of my friendships they wouldn't call me but we they' call me after like five kids and be like hey how have you been I'm like oh my God how have you been they're like five kids now and I'm like oh my God five kids so every I really genuinely every friendship to me is different I do not treat my friends the same all my friends are different every relationship I have with my friends are different I do not have cookie cutter friends it's as Aristotle said or called it the perfect French ship now when it comes to female friendships or other women in general there's one piece of magic that I admire so much about us and it's the unspoken language that we share so here comes another anecdote one time I was at a dinner type of thing what's that what's that I'm hungry and it's I can't eat it's I just want to eat all the time but I eat when I eat girl dinner all the time I love snacking I just like a little bird I'm like oh pistachio here oh a gra peer oh what's that I want it what is it people and some were single and some were coupled up and I was there with a guy that I've been seeing for a while let's call him Simon so Simon particularly enjoyed making condescending jokes about me preferably in front of others and on this particular evening as we were all gathered around the dinner table and after one too many condescending jokes that no one but him found to be funny I felt hurt and so I became distant anyway so everyone was chatting and eating and drinking and Simon was clueless or he just did not care and so I sat there mostly quiet and then I looked up and I was met by the eyes from the girl sitting from across the table and I did not know her very well and we exchanged a look it must have lasted a few seconds but it was enough for her to let me know that she knew and I knew that she knew she wasn't clueless a girl that I barely knew made me feel more seen and heard in that moment than that cuz we see parts of ourselves in each other mhm mhm I feel like I have this connection with total strangers all the time if the timing is correct and you look at each other right at the moment you know you know guy who supposedly loved and cared for me so deeply I absolutely adore how us women seem to be able to communicate almost telepathically I mean I do this with men as well again my male again gender seems to play almost no role in my life so I have the same relationship with men and women with anybody just a human to human it's like I feel like I give you guys looks do you guys feel that from me cuz I feel like I give you guys looks and you get what I'm doing especially early in in this video I didn't mean to go so hard on her but I feel like when I look at you and I'm like it's like I'm trying to say like oh this is not I'm exhaust I'm so this is what I mean when I say I get socially exhausted when I'm around people that like are not on my like not my language like not my bubble I'm doing so much social work just to understand their language and I have to translate everything they're saying and I have to work like 10 times harder and the same way people feel like when they see me they're like oh my God what is Britney saying like I have to like think about what she's say but I feel like I do that with you guys right okay you guys see it I see you yep okay do it you got you guys know you guys know MH we can communicate with just a look a tap on the arm a one- worded text how we move a bit closer when we see a woman walking by herself at night because we know that it might provide a sense of safety and comfort how our eyes automatically search for another woman when we are on an empty subway at night and the sense of relief when we find it the familiarity in an unfamiliar female face as women we do that for one another and we don't even have to ask for it and it's so cool and it's one of those things that makes me love being a woman in this world why am I crying I just think it's really beautiful okay gay I love it by wow she's so gay bro I love her she's gay no her the way she speaks is a little too slow for me that was on almost times two bro um I put a link to the video in the chat so you guys can check her out great video good job I'm going to put it I'm going to thumbs up it but yeah I I think that's pretty common uh for people to have to grow up and you have to learn how to make friends you have to learn what kind of friends do you want you know the moral of Lana's story is simple stay away from toxic friendships agree stay away from toxic friends you know yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it happens sometimes you just got a Negative Nancy in the friend group you know sometimes you just got negative people feedback that's why I do appreciate my siblings cuz we're the kind of siblings that like cheerlead each other we're like always celebrating each other's wins we're always like mourning each other's losses like I checked in on my brother he just recently transferred for a job I was like how's work he's like killing I was like fire you know I'll send my brothers like my updated like here I hit a goal this month they're like awesome bro I'll send them like updates like we send each other updates like again we celebrate each other's wins and we mourn each other's losses bro like we do our best and I think that's a learned skill but also say something about your character and I pay attention to people sometimes I'll have friends who mean the best but bro they cannot celebrate my wins with me and I see it in them I'm like you don't have to do this with me or they'll like um celebrate my losses in a way that like is about them see I told you see I told you and I'm like m nah bro nah n n n it happens it's life you know people are in their own issue they have their own issues it doesn't mean you have to throw away the whole friendship you know sometimes your friendships are just going to have hard moments guys sometimes your friendships are going to be tough and you got to ride the wave so you make it another 20 years but let me tell you this and I mean this with all of my love if you do not Unconditionally Love that person then yeah the friendship's condition how often you talk when you see them how often you agree how good you make each other feel yeah if you're love is conditional that friendship is conditional but if you unconditionally love someone you're going to ride the wave into the next 20 years because you're going to see like okay we're just having a moment we're having a moment the Friendship isn't conditional but if your friends say well I don't talk to you every day so like I can't be friends with you that's a conditional friendship and that's fine that's valuable I have friends who are like hey I can't talk to you more than once a month maybe every two months is that okay and if it's not okay I understand but I I it's got to be conditional right now it's got to be conditional I just I just negotiated and that's the difference for me my unconditional friendships are not going to say I need to talk to you every day because like that doesn't make sense to me but my conditional ones absolutely Brian says all relationships are conditional I think that's a personal experience I don't think that's true I have unconditional relationships with certain people people in my life cuz I have unconditional love for them so I do not put a condition on US being friends like I only put a boundary on how we interact which is different but like I'm happy to end a friendship that's conditional I won't end a friendship that's unconditional like if I love you unconditional I'm not ending that friendship but I might put a boundary in place that you know keeps me kind of like sane and happy and joyful if we're going through something together you know what I mean that's my personal Rel ship with it you don't have to have that relationship you know my belly's being I'm okay I'm just fine yet all I do is you my mind I know I don't sense but so why is my life a mess please tell me cuz I'm sick of thinking yeah SI

K8n-BWtKmOw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8n-BWtKmOw | First Crossover Event! Mysteria Friends Update, Anne Review, Io Shards | Princess Connect! Re:Dive | my friends welcome to the first of many many collabs although i don't really know if you can actually call them collabs considering it's very much like the cy games universe very much like elgita our monika our ariza and so the upcoming update the upcoming events as well as the new characters they will be kind of coming in that sort of vein hi welcome back to another princess connect video my name is lace and today we're going to be talking about the new update mysteria friends collab kind of thing i mean they call it a crossover event but a lot of this is going to be very very permanent and so with that let's jump right into the content starting with our new character our new mage and now before i go into the content itself i do want to like kind of set the theme right we've got anne over here princess of kingdom of mysteria if i come over here to this wikipedia tab what you are going to see here is friends so essentially it is very much connected to the iep of rage of muhammad and so if you guys were wondering where these characters are coming from anne greyer lou etc this is it manaria friends alright so with that said let's head back over to the content update a new character and she is she's pretty exciting let me put it that way so in a nutshell she is going to be another fantastic mage if you think about when like yoko was released like she just kind of blew everything away and is very much like that so let me take you guys through a quick walkthrough of anne herself as you can see this one is anne and let's take a look at her skills to kick things off so with her union burst deterrent slash he inflicts massive magic damage to the front most enemy and also applies a large magic attack buff to all allies that have been granted the heroic spirit's blessing so to be honest this ubi is quite straightforward she does massive magic damage and if your allies have a particular buff which is called heroic spirits blessing then those allies will get a large magic attack buff and how exactly do we get this buff it's actually on the skill 2 over here so as you can see with skill 2 princess calling she grants the heroic spirits blessing to all allies who deal magic damage so it's very much like your kyoka it's going to be like your kiaru it's going to be like ilya for the most part our tanks are actually doing physical damage up until oedokuka and so if i'm not wrong odokuka actually does magic damage on her normal attacks and therefore that gives her access to this heroic spirit's blessing i am not saying whether that is a good idea or not i'm just saying that that is a possibility okay so for all of the allies who deal magical damage they get heroic spirits blessing they also get a large magic attack buff as well as a small action speed buff and then on top of that with the union burst they also get another large magic attack buff so you guys can kind of see why this is kind of getting cracked out a little bit and why n is actually so sort after even like i think even six to eight potentially 12 months down the line all i can say is that if i come over to the cn bros spreadsheet you will see anne with nanika and with halloween kyoka we've got the halloween mimi over here as well and then if i scroll down and and and and and she is pretty much in every single competent magic team and so yeah hopefully from a cb perspective that demonstrates how important she is going to be for ucb tryhards but coming back over to her skills with her skill one it is simply a medium magic damage she is very much as you can tell like a mage and a mage dps support she is not only going to do damage she is also going to buff everybody around her including herself and do even more damage going through to her ex skill magic attack up like if it was literally anything else i'd be pretty mad one level bonus even more magic attack and then with the attack pattern we've got two into one so you've got the magic attack buff and then going into your magic attack and then you've got a relatively decent loop normal attack normal attack into skill two buff into a normal attack into a skill one so what this means is that your skill 2 is going to have a decent amount of up time considering it lasts about 12 seconds however it just really means that you've got to get your ubs right off when you do have the heroic spirits blessing so there is like a little bit of fine control there in terms of arena i do believe she may see some use but she's not going to see like overwhelmingly dominating use like your ilia or like your kyoku although gyorka isn't actually used overly much these days she is certainly not going to be like your muimi or your christina who sees play in essentially every single type of content but anytime you need magical dps and is pretty much going to be there now so with all of that being said should you roll for anne yes if you're a hardcore sweaty cb tryhard who does not have all of the other mages so what i mean by that is that you need to have gyoka you need to have ilia you need to have akari yori kiyaru samakiaru anna with ue and if you sweaty tryhards don't have like one of these characters there's probably a quite a high chance that your guild leader is going to get you to pull for aunt as for me personally i don't know if i'm going to pull for anne i'm actually steering on the side of no considering she is actually going to be a permanent unit despite being a crossover right so like i said very much like your ariza very much like your monika so yeah that's pretty much n in a nutshell in summary if you're gonna pull her you'll know otherwise for the vast majority of players you could technically skip her because she's permanent and limited hell is coming up however there is gonna be about a three to four month gap before we start rolling again and i don't know if i can control myself i i don't know man all right so with that being said let's move on to the twin flowers of astrum which is the story event that is going to come featuring the three manari i'm sorry mysteria friends so here you can see greya on the right hand side as well as lou on the left hand side who are also featured actually in manaria friends grayer is even on the promotional image over here and then you've got lou down here all right so coming back over here essentially it is your story event in which we're going to be getting some nice farmable shards oh my god it's actually so good hopefully by now you guys already know how these events work you've got your normal you've got your heart you've got your vh very hard stage as well as the special difficulty and then with all of these medals you can roll for things such as equipment shards d a potentially maybe not in this one actually mana etc through those price boxes and speaking of prizes we've got lou over here as the welfare character although look at her like she's so freaking cute we can't call that welfare and so i'm not gonna do a massive evaluation of lou essentially she is a mage that scales according to how many of these little things she summons and in terms of her utility you might see her like once or twice or a couple of times with x chicken loops so for example over here we've got summer sauron we've got the nanaka we've got the summer eo and we've got the ex chica and you can see that lou is also featured here which is pretty cool however to be honest lou is kind of like uh you can farm for her if you want but you don't have to so rather than being like a summer kokuro or a new year's rey she is more of like a summer mefuyu we are pretty much guaranteed to get her up to three stars and if you want to try hard a little bit refresh a little bit you could probably get her to four all i'm saying is that generally speaking you probably won't have to use her overly much okay so that's lou let's come down here we've got more stories event exclusive stories with the crossover with mysterio friends i don't know i think it's really cool i really love the concept of like ariza and monika just stuff like that right like so how peculiar went into the dragalia lost lore massive fan of crossovers right here okay and so in terms of who is going to be farmable we've got lou as we just spoke about but we've also got eo now this is actually quite an important point because for a lot of people actually for everybody eo literally just got her ue released but on top of that after the clan battle rewards get released for cb 14 aka the upcoming one we're also going to be getting eo shots there combining all of that plus in this one over here plus this plus the fact that it's farmable etc etc i would say that if you are actually spending your clan coins on er just pause for a moment and consider like your makoto if not like your yori because we are in fact about to be bombarded with a whole bunch of your shots alright so that is pretty sick moving on we've got the march clan battle oh my god the mino torres this guy is tough well he was tough he was tough back then he just like really really chunked us like this mother effin red bull he actually just made so many of us cry and i think he might have led to a lot of people quitting but it's quite nice to see them again it just gives me a very very nostalgic feeling so what i'm trying to say here is that if you guys are newer to the game do expect some of your characters to die here but otherwise with the release of some of the more modern characters as well as the ue system you should be okay alright so with that let's scroll down we've got normal quest drops times two oh man this is probably my favorite update of the entire patch my guys we are finally getting the furniture update where the max levels are going to be increased from 10 up to 13. so that includes the mana creation the potion creation for exp we got the snack table for your stamina as well as karen for the skip tickets oh baby but yeah aside from that we've got the normal quest times two we've got the hard quest times two and that is going to wrap up everything in this update cool honestly cool i i just really need to figure out whether i want to roll for and or not and so with that my guys i am going to pass on my insecurity to you guys you guys let me know if you're going to be rolling for anne and if you guys do end up dropping a comment down below i would really appreciate that so thank you guys so much but otherwise if you did like the content of this video please consider a like and if you would like to see more please consider a subscribe and so as ann once said all good things must come to an end so thank you guys so much for watching i'll catch you guys in the next video bye [Music] you | Lace |

Txe3NkNkX64 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Txe3NkNkX64 | Talking with arrogant people, pt.1 | hello everyone and welcome to today's sutta class we will start as usual with the namutasa feel free to join if you like [Music] so hello everyone and welcome to today's suture class today we are reading the assalaa yanasuta this is a suta from the majimanikaya number 93 and this was spoken by the buddha to a brahmin student called asalayana that's why that's where the name of the sutta comes from and this is the sutta where the brahmins claim that they are the highest caste the most pure um the most evolved the one that comes directly from the gods from the brahma gods and then all other castes are inferior and obviously below them and so the buddha has a conversation with the brahmin student as a liona about this topic and i picked the sutta because i thought that it is really this pattern that we see here that a group of people thinks that they are better than everyone else this is something that we see a lot uh also in modern times obviously this is not a new phenomenon this already happened in the buddha's time and this probably happened as long as beings have been there in the universe um so basically forever um but especially i think in the modern times there is so much conflict there so much strife there's so much suffering also because people create these divisions between um between different groups for example um for example this issue of racism between people of different skin colors then obviously there is so much nationalism people thinking that their own country is better than everyone else's and therefore people creating all kinds of conflicts and hostility towards immigrants towards or even just visitors from another country and obviously there for any kind of social group there there could be these kind of divisions there are divisions between straight people and lgbtq plus people there are divisions between men and women people demonize feminism for example there are divisions between disabled people and people who are not disabled there are divisions between people who are who are already a little bit older and the younger people like for whatever kind of social group there can be these divisions and especially in modern times people really are few there are people who really fuel these divisions and who really create purposely create more conflict and more suffering in society because of this kind of thinking because one group thinks that they're better than the rest and then everyone else and so for this reason i wanted to talk about the sutta today and see how the buddha discusses about this matter with the brahmin student asalayana and so i put a link in the live chat if you want to read along the link that i have put there is to want to suggest translation and i am reading from the kuboti's translation [Music] so let's just get started thus have i heard on one occasion the blessed one was living at zavati in jettas grove and atapinika's park now at that time 500 brahmins from diverse provinces were staying at zavati for some business or other then those brahmins thought this recluse gotama describes purification for all the forecasts who is there able to dispute with him about this assertion so here we have the buddha in savati as usual and apparently at that time there was a big gathering of brahmins from all over the land 500 that just means a lot like a lot of brahmins all the famous brahmins probably and all the students came together to discuss some kind of issue we don't really know what and it's not really that important it's just important that every really a lot of brahmins came together and they heard that the buddha's dhamma was taught for uh for people irrespective of the cast so whatever family whoop you were born into whatever cast you were born into everybody could go forth everybody could practice the dhamma either as a householder or as one gone forth so as a renunciant as a monastic everybody could practice and everybody could achieve all the stages on the path including arahan ship so purification here obviously refers to arahan ships to full liberation to full purification of the mind from all the defilements so arahanship for everybody irrespective of their cast and obviously for the brahmins that was a big red flag because brahmins they believed that they are the purest caste that they are the ones born directly from the brahma gods or from the one the highest brahma the the head of the brahma gods basically uh so they are the pure ones they are the ones that are direct descendants from the gods and everybody else is uh not pure and obviously also can never be pure because they are from another caste so there is no purification for other castes in their way of thinking so obviously the buddha stammer was triggering to them and so they were looking for somebody to refute the buddha's teaching so the text continues now on that occasion a brahmin student named asalayana was staying at zavati young shaven headed 16 years old he was a master of the three vedas with their vocabularies liturgy phonology and etymology and histories as a fifth skilled in philology and grammar he was fully versed in natural philosophy and in the marks of a great man then the brahmins thought there is this young brahmin student named artheliana staying at savati he is young and so on whatever all these qualifications and he's fully versed in natural philosophy and in the marks of a great man he will be able to dispute with the recluse gotama about this assertion so there is a young brahmin student in this assembly of brahmans and obviously he is very very smart and clever and his learning is very advanced he is only 16 years old and he has already mastered all the texts with all the supplements of the texts and all the sciences that come along with those texts liturgy phonology etymology and so on so he was fully trained and he was very young and very bright and so people thought that he might be a good candidate to have this discussion with the buddha and so the brahmins went to the brahmin student asalayana and said to him master asalayana this recluse gotama describes purification for all the forecasts let master assalaina come and dispute with the recluse gotama about this assertion when this was said the brahmin student asalayana replied sirs the recluse gotama is one who speaks the dhamma now those who speak the dhamma are difficult to dispute with i am not able to dispute with the recluse gotama about this assertion so now the brahmins go to asalayana and ask him to debate with the buddha but asalayanah doesn't want to debate with the buddha because assalaina has noticed that the buddha speaks the dhamma so the dhamma here in this case doesn't just mean the buddha's teaching the dharma can also mean speaking the truth speaking and natural law or speaking what is good what is wholesome so obviously um asalayana himself has quite high regard for the buddha even though he is not a buddhist himself and so he thinks since the buddha speaks the truth obviously you cannot win a debate with him because when you have a debate the one who speaks in line with truth should be the winner if it is an honest debate if both peop both sides debate in good faith and if people are actually interested to find out what is true and which view is the right view then obviously you don't want to debate with someone who has a more right view than yourself because then you will always be the loser if it is a good debate and if both parties um debate in good faith so here arsalayana actually has a very positive impression of the buddha and he actually sees clearly the limitations of himself and of his own tradition and so he thinks there's no way that he can convince the buddha of his position of the brahmin position and he doesn't really want to engage in this debate and he already knows that he's not going to win this and so he doesn't want to engage in this also it's futile and obviously if you think if you have high regard for the other person and if you think they are speaking the truth and they are speaking something that is beneficial you don't want to challenge them because it will just make you look very bad it will make you look like an unwholesome person it will kind of damage your reputation and it can seem very disrespectful to a person that you actually want to respect so for that reason the student doesn't want to debate with the buddha but then a second time the brahmins said to him master assalaina this recluse gotema describes purification for all the forecasts let master assalaya come and dispute with the recluse gotem about this assertion for the training of a wanderer has been completed by master assalayana so they try again and they tell him well your training has already been completed you know everything so you you're the best qualified person to have this debate but for a second time the brahmin student asalayana replied sirs the recluse gotama is one who speaks the dhamma now those who speak the dhamma are difficult to dispute with i am not able to dispute with the recluse gotama about this assertion and the third time the brahmin said to him master assalayana this recluse gotama describes purification for all the four castes let master assalaina come and dispute with the recluse gotoma about this assertion for the training of a wanderer has been completed by master assalaina let not the master assalaina be defeated without having even fought the battle when this was said the brahmin student assalayana replied surely sirs i am not getting through to you when i say the recluse gotama is one who speaks the dhamma now those who speak the dhamma are difficult to dispute with i'm not able to dispute with the recluse gotema about this assertion still sirs at your bidding i will go so the brahmins can't let this go so they keep on nagging and nagging and nagging and eventually they tell us a lionai he would be defeated without even fighting the battle so it would be um well he would be a coward basically if he didn't go to the debate and master asalaya eventually even though he still thinks it's a really really bad idea eventually he gives in and he lets himself be convinced by the others and he agrees to go and have this debate he agrees to go and challenge the buddha against his own better judgment and so here again we see [Music] how we are quite easily influenced by other people and how important it is to pick our friends wisely as you all know the first few lines of the mangala sutta are keep away from fools and associate with wise people it is very very easy for us to be influenced by others uh we always want to have approval by our social group we don't want to we want our friends to disapprove we don't want our friends to we want our friends friends to think highly of us to agree with us we don't want to have a conflict with the people around us so uh there is a lot of peer pressure uh and um so we can only pick what kind of peer pressure we want to have in our life do we want to have peer pressure from good people or do we want to have peer pressure from bad people so if we associate with good people there will be pressure to do good good things and so we are kind of being pushed in the right direction maybe practicing more dhamma or doing wholesome things being kind being generous those kind of things or if we associate with bad people we would constantly be pushed into doing bad things even if it is against our better judgment just because we because it is really really difficult to um not give in to social pressure because it's really really uncomfortable and a lot of suffering to follow our own conscience instead of pleasing the people around us and so for this reason again we can see here how important it is to pick our friends wisely and to only associate with people who [Music] who let us do good things and don't push us into doing bad things so here against his better judgment asa liona is now basically more or less pushed into challenging the buddha even though he thinks he has no chance of winning this so then the brahmin student assalaina went with a large number of brahmins to the blessed one and exchanged greetings with him when this courteous and aimable talk was finished he sat down at one side and said to the blessed one master gotama the brahmins say thus brahmins are the highest caste those of any other caste are inferior brahmins are the fairest caste those of any other cast are dark brow means only brahmins are purified not non-brahmins brahmins alone are the sons of brahma the offspring of brahma born of his mouth born of brahma created by brahma heirs of brahma what does master gutima say about that so here now we have the brahmins openly stating what they are thinking and um to their credit they are not kind of hiding at all their own superiority complex they are not hiding at all that they are discriminating against other people so this is totally out in the open that they believe that they are better than everybody else and they really look down on everyone else and that they believe that they are the offspring of the gods so talk about conceit here um but anyway as i mentioned in the beginning this kind of thinking you don't have to be a brahmin to think like this uh this kind of thinking is found in many many communities all over uh the world people looking down on people from other nations people uh from other races people from other sexual orientations people from other cultures whatever uh whenever there is uh the smallest difference between people uh people will not just see that uh two different um equal uh states but that there's they will always judge judge the two things and think one is better than the other because our mind just works this way that we always judge things and that we always try to pick because we have so much craving in our mind we always try to evaluate which one is the better and which one is the worst one so this is just as long as we have defilements in our minds we create these divisions between people so this is quite natural to occur [Music] and in this case it's the brahmins in modern times it could be other groups but basically the way of thinking is quite similar so asa liona states uh their way of thinking and he asks what does master gojima say about that and the first thing the buddha replies is now asalayana the brahmin women are seen having their periods becoming pregnant giving birth and giving suck so breastfeeding babies and yet those brahmins though born from the womb say thus brahmins are the highest caste and so on and brahmins alone are the sons of brahma the offspring of brahma born of his mouth born of brahma created by brahma heirs of brahma so woulda immediately points out the most obvious discrepancy with this claim since um it's quite obvious that brahmins are born from their mothers as any other human being obviously they are not born from brahma they are not born from this god they are not offspring of gods they are offspring of men and women just like everybody else so they are not born of the brahma's mouth they are born from a woman they're not born by brahma they're not created by brahma they are just obviously born in exactly the same way as all other humans so already the debate should end at this point because already this claim is debunked but as a lionel yeah can't give up that easily obviously since there are 500 brahmins watching him and expecting him to defeat uh to to defend their claim so he says although master gotum says this still the brahmins think thus brahmins are the highest caste of those of any other caster inferior brahmins are the fairest caste those of any other cars are dark only brahmins are purified not non-brahmins and brahmins alone are the sons of brahma the offspring of brahma born of his mouth born of brahma created by brahma heirs of brahma and then the buddha says what do you think asalayana have you heard that in yona and kamboja and in other outland countries there are only two casts masters and slaves and that masters become slaves and slaves masters so i have heard sir then on the strength of what argument or with the support of what authority do the brahmins in this case say thus brahmins are the highest caste and so on and they are the heirs of brahma and although master gutima says this still the brahmins think thus brahmans are the highest caste and so on and they are the heirs of brahma so now the buddha comes up with another argument and he says uh well there are countries that are not in the middle genji's valley so this obviously this uh takes place in savarti this conversation so that's the place where the buddha usually taught the middle ganges valley but outside the middle ganges valley obviously there are also other countries back in the buddhist time there wasn't that much trade but there was a little bit of trade so there uh wasn't that much knowledge about uh countries that are far away but there was a little bit of knowledge and here what the buddha talks about this country is jonah and cambodia yonah is the pali version of the word ionia and that refers to greece or to greek influenced countries so not necessarily only the place where greece is nowadays but greece had a very big sphere of influence back then also in areas that are that were somewhat closer to india so it could refer not necessarily only to greece but also to those other countries those other areas regions that were influenced by the greek culture and then cambodia was an area to the north west i believe of the middle genji's valley um and so obviously in those countries the cultures are entirely different they are there isn't even the same caste system that they have in india there are no forecasts so there are no brahmins whatsoever and so we always believe that our own culture is the dominant one is the one that everybody should uh refer to and is and the way that we think is the way that everybody else thinks but obviously there are so many uh there's so much diversity on this planet and there's so many different cultures and we are not the the standard we are not the the reference point uh our way of thinking is just one among many and the way we live isn't necessarily the way that everybody else lives so here in this case there are no forecasts there are just two cars masters in slaves that's the way and well sort of more or less the way that ancient greece was uh organized um and obviously there was fluidity between the two states the slaves could be freed and could become rich and then become masses and own their own slaves so uh those so-called castes in greece aren't cast in the same thing in the same sense as in india where you were born into one and then you would just remain in that one for the rest of your life uh in this case obviously there's fluidity and you can um can change from one caste to the other so um this idea of being born into one and that birth determining um [Music] the rest of your life basically uh doesn't apply to other countries that's what the buddha points out here and again brahmins don't even exist in those countries so that claim doesn't make sense uh but us a lioness still still persists uh and say the brahmins still think that they are the highest castes so the buddha has to come up with another argument and the buddha then says the following what do you think are salina suppose a noble were to kill living beings take what is not given misconduct themselves in sensual pleasures speak falsely speak maliciously speak harshly gossip big covetous have a mind of ill will and hold wrong view on the dissolution of the body after death would only they be likely to reappear in a state of deprivation in an unhappy destination in petition even in hell and not a brahmin suppose a merchant or suppose a worker were to kill living beings and so on and hold wrong here on the dissolution of the body after death would only they be likely to reappear in a state of deprivation in an unhappy destination in perdition even in hell and not a brahmin no master gotama whether it be a noble or a brahmin or a merchant or a worker those of all forecasts who kill living beings and who do the other on wholesome things and hold wrong view on the dissolution of the body after death are likely to reappear in a state of deprivation in an unhappy destination in perdition even in hell then on the strength of what argument or with the support of what authority do the brahmins in this case stay thus brahmins are the highest highest caste and so on and they are the heirs of brahma so now the buddha comes up with a new argument and he says suppose there is a person who engages in the 10 kinds of unwholesome conduct so this uh list of unholes and conduct here is found in many many suddas aku sala dhammas or unhold some 10 unholes some things so killing stealing uh misconduct and central pledges the four kinds of misconduct in speech so speaking falsely maliciously harshly and gossip and then the three kinds of mental bad conduct being covetous having a mind of ill will and holding wrong view so those correspond to greed hatred and delusion being covetous corresponds to greed having a mind of ill will corresponds to hatred and holding wrong view corresponds to delusion so these are the ten kinds of unhold some conduct and suppose a person engages in those ten kinds of unwholesome conduct then after they die they would have they made bad karma so usually they should have a bad rebirth so the buddha asks would only a noble person have that bad rebirth or a merchant or a worker but if a brahmin does this wouldn't would they not have a bad rebirth if they do this so the word noble here doesn't refer to the arias as we usually use it in the suttas so it doesn't refer to somebody who is a stream enterer or who has another noble attainment on the buddhist path the word noble here refers to the cast of the katyas and the katya sometimes also translated as aristocrats uh one of the forecasts in india as you all know so the brahmins the nobles or katyas and then the merchants and the workers those are the forecasts [Music] and usually the brahmins and the nobles are considered to be the higher costs and the merchants and the workers are considered to be a lower caste um but of course from the point of view of the brahmins the brahmins are the highest and the other three are below them from the point of view of the nobles the nobles are the highest caste and the other three are below them so it depends on who you ask who was considered to be the highest one of course from the point of view of the brahmins that we have here in the suta it's the brahmins that are the highest but anyway so here the buddha says it doesn't matter from which caste you are if you have this unhold some conduct you will be reborn in a bad destination or actually the buddha asks as a liar do you think if a brahmin did this they wouldn't that come that karmic consequence wouldn't catch up with them so do you think just because because you are the offspring of brahma because you're already inherently pure that you would immediately be reborn in a good destination so if you make bad karma that doesn't matter because you claim to be inherently pure and assalaina says well no whoever engages in that one wholesome conduct even if it is a brahmin will have a bad rebirth um and then the buddhist says well so what kind of argument do you have or what kind of authority to do you rely on to claim that you are the highest caste and the purest caste uh if you're obviously not purer than anybody else and assalamu doesn't come up with any kind of argument doesn't come up with any kind of authority to rely on he just stubbornly repeats what he said before although master gautama says this still the brahmins think the brahmans are the highest caste so the buddha has to come up with a new argument and so the buddha now says what do you think assalahina suppose a brahmin were to abstain from killing living beings from taking what is not given from misconduct and sense pleasures sensual pleasures from false speech from malicious speech from her speech and from gossip and were to be uncovetous to have a mind without ill will and to hold right view under the dissolution of the body of the death would only they be likely to reappear in a happy destination even in the heavenly world and not a noble or a merchant or a worker no master gautama whether it be a noble or a brahmin or a merchant or a worker those of all forecasts who abstain from killing living beings and so on and hold right view on the dissolution of the body after death are likely to reappear in a happy destination even in the heavenly world then on the strength of what argument or with the support of what authority do the brahmins in this case say thus brahmins are the highest castes and so on and the heirs of brahma so now the buddha comes up just with the opposite argument so if you do if you engage in the ten kinds of wholesome conduct which are the exact opposites of the ten kinds of unholes on conduct then obviously you make a lot of good karma so that should lead to a good destination and so the buddha asks if a brahmin does this is it only a brahmin that goes to a good destination then or would all the forecasts if they make this good comma go to a good destination and so as aligner has to concede that all all cars uh if they make good come up will go to to go to a good destination so again being brahmin doesn't give you any advantage just because you claim to be purer than everybody else uh that claim isn't actually supported by reality um and the buddha again says so what's your argument or what authority do you rely on uh if you make that claim that you are higher and purer than everybody else and again asalayana doesn't give an uh any kind of argument he just stubbornly repeats his stance about the brahmins being the highest caste and so again i think this uh reminds us of some debates in modern times where you're trying to have a discussion with somebody but the other person doesn't come up with any kind of rational argument it doesn't really interact with your point at all they just stubbornly cling to their view and nothing you say no no matter how good your argument is nothing will ever change their mind even if they concede that your argument is valid and even if they think that what you say is true still they're not willing to let go of their views still they're stubbornly clinging to their uh their point of view so i think we you can see that i think most of you have seen that in modern times as well people no matter how good your argument is no matter if what you say is based on truth the other person is not ever going to change their mind so then the buddha comes up with a new argument and the buddha says what do you think asalayana is only a brahmin capable of developing a mind of loving kindness towards this region without hostility and without ill will and not a noble or a merchant or a worker no master gotama whether it be a noble or a merchant or a or a brahmin or a merchant or a worker those of all forecasts are capable of developing a mind of loving-kindness towards this region without hostility and without ill will then on the strength of what argument or with the support of what authority do the brahmins in this case say thus brahmins are the highest castes and the heirs of brahma although master gotama says this still the brahmins think thus brahmins are the highest caste and the heirs of brahma so the buddha comes up with a new argument here and he says he asks athalaya if he thinks that only a brahmin can develop matter so loving kindness um towards this region uh without hostility without will so very pure matter matter that is spread out that covers a wide area uh and does i think only brahmins are capable of doing this and not all the other castes and asalaya again has to concede that anybody can do this not only abrahamian and of course this is especially interesting here because the development of meta meta obviously is one of the brahma viharas in translated into english sometimes as the divine abidings but actually it means the abiding of brahma so the abiding of the brahma gods so if you want to be reborn as a brahma god there is a way to do that the way is not to be reborn into the brahmin caste the way is to actually develop the brahma viharas in your mind so there are four brahmaviharas the first one is meta loving-kindness that the buddha talks about here the others are karuna or compassion murita or joy and upeka equanimity so if you develop those things you can actually be reborn in the brahma realm but it has nothing to do with being born as a brahmin and so this is the actual way to uh to become to to come to union with brahma not uh those brahmin rituals and so as a lionel has to actually concede that anybody can do this whether you're a brahmana or you're not a brahman you can become purified enough to be reborn in the brahma realm um [Music] so again he basically totally uh disproves his own theory that that his cast is innately pure and the other cards are not pure cause anybody can develop these kind of purifications so it's interesting that it's actually the buddhists that teach the brahmins the way to brahma and it's not the brahmins themselves that know the way to brahman the brahmins only basically learn their rituals and their theories but the buddhists actually put this practice into practice and can actually achieve this unity or this rebirth this unity with brahma or this rebirth in the brahma realm and obviously it's not the fact that you are an heir of rama or that you are born of brahma offspring to be being an offspring of brahma or anything like this that will lead you to a rebirth in the brahma realm and then the buddha comes up with a new argument and he says what do you think asalayana is only a brahmin capable of taking a loofah and bath powder going to the river and washing off dust and dirt and not a noble or a merchant or a worker no master gotema whether it be a noble or a brahmin or a merchant or a worker those of all forecasts are capable of taking a loofah and bath powder going to the river and washing off dust and dirt then on the strength of what argument or with the support of what authority do the brahmins in this case say thus brahmins are the highest castes and so on and although master gautama says this still the brahmins think thus so here now the buddha obviously is making fun of the brahmins and he says the brahmins claim that they are purified and that all other castes are impure so purified obviously means you're clean you're cleansed you're washed [Music] and so buddha says well can only the brahmins wash can only the brahmins purify their body or can anybody go to the river and wash themselves and obviously anybody can go to the river take some soap along and aloofa and wash themselves so anybody is equally capable of being either clean or dirty um so again there is that claim that one person is more purified than the other has no basis in reality um [Music] so and obviously in in buddhism we also talk about cleansing we mostly talk about cleansing the mind but again cleansing the mind has nothing to do with being born in any of the castes so it's not because that you're brahmin or that you are a noble that you are inherently more pure than others it's if you do the practice if you let go of unwholesome states if you let go of your defiance your mind gets more purified gets more cleansed and actually uh there is one epitaph for an arahant that is the cleansed one or the washed one and that refers to having washed off all the defilements obviously doesn't refer to having washed your body or doesn't refer to being inherently purer than other people it's just because you have done the practice and you've actually done what needed to be done let go of all the impurities in your mind that you become cleansed it's not based on your birth um there's still quite a bit left in this sutta so i don't think we can finish it all today um but i don't see any question in the live chat so just keep going for a little bit longer and read one more argument maybe and then we can finish the rest next time and if you have a question you can already post it in the chat so the buddha comes up with one more argument he comes up with a lot more but one more for today and the buddha says what do you think arsalayana suppose a head anointed noble king were to assemble their what do i assemble here a hundred men of different birth and say to them come sirs let any hear who have been born into a noble clan or a brahmin clan or a royal clan take an upper fire stick of salah wood salalah wood sandalwood or padumaka wood and light a fire and produce heat and also let any who have been born into an outcast clan a trapper clan a wicker workers clan a cartwright's clan or a scavenger's clan take an upper fire stick made from a dog's drinking drinking control from a pig straw from a dust bin or from castor oil wood and light a fire and produce heat what do you think a salina when a fire is lit and heat is produced by someone in the first group would that fire have a flame a color and a radiance and would it be possible to use it for the purpose of fire while when a fire is lit and heat is produced by someone of the second group that fire would have no flame no color and no radiance and it would not be possible to use it for the purposes of fire no master gotema when a fire is lit and heat is produced by someone in the first group that fire would have a flame a color and a radiance and it would be possible to use it for the purposes of fire and when a fire is lit and heat is produced by someone in the second group that fire too would have a flame a color and a radiance and it would be possible to use it for the purposes of fire for all fire has a flame a color and a radiance and it is possible to use all fire for the purposes of fire then on the strength of what argument or with the support of what authority do the brahmins in this case say thus brahmans are the highest caste and so on and the student says although master gotham says this still the brahmanas think thus brahmins are the highest caste so now the buddha comes up with a simile and he says i suppose someone assembles a group of people and those people that are from a noble clan or from a brahmin clan so those that are from a higher caste they take very [Music] expensive wood very precious wood and um then they light that or the light of the fire and um um produce heat and then there is a group of people from that are not even included in one of the four cars that are from outcast clans or from families or clients that are considered quite lowly that are doing kind of dirty work and they take they take wood that is kind of disgusting um or considered disgusting back then so dogs were considered to be very impure animals as well as pigs so using materials that have been used as feeding or drinking vessels for those kind of animals to light a fire or from a dustbin so kind of rubbish wood and they use that kind of wood and they also light a fire and also produce heat and so uh the buddha is only the fire that the first group produces real fire or is any kind of person capable to produce real fire to to light a proper fire and that fire that has been lit is the same fire for everybody uh and they can be used for all the purposes of fire no matter who has lit it and so it's a little bit difficult to understand what this kind of refers to what the simile means on the one hand i think one thing that the buddha points out if there's any kind of work to be done anybody can do that work anybody is capable of doing that work it's not that uh brahmins or nobles are inherently more capable of doing stuff um so anybody can learn how to do this and everybody can develop those skills and anybody can then uh act in a skillful way either with worldly skills or or obviously also skillful in the sense of beneficial yeah and making good karma but the other thing also here is that this simile uh is about specifically about lighting fires and obviously for brahmins fire was a special substance and there are many ceremonies for the brahmins that involve fire worship that involve lighting of the lighting fires and then doing various rituals with that and those rituals are also purification rituals so um through the fire things can be purified um and brahmins especially obviously as brahmins claim that only they themselves only brahmanas themselves can conduct those rituals and therefore can purify um other beings and can can have can do rituals that are actually impactful and that actually bring results um but here in this case the buddha makes the brahmin student acknowledge that even the fire that has been led by uh an outcast clan member using wood that is just rubbish can be is the same fire as anyone else's fire it has the same flame it has the same color it has the same radiance and it can be used for any purpose of fire including obviously all those ritual kind of purposes because it's exactly the same fire so even those very sacred rituals uh that the brahmins carry out and those fire worship that worship ceremonies that they that they do in their religion um are kind of baseless because uh anybody can light this kind of fire and anybody has that ability and that skill to do that it's not something special to the brahmins so this basically undermines directly the core of their own belief of superior superiority because they no longer can claim that they are the only ones who are pure enough to to do those fire rituals and as asalaina himself states um all fire has a flame a color and a radiance and it is possible to use all fire for the purposes of fire so he himself has to admit that but still he stubbornly clings to his view and claims that the brahmins are the highest caste and i think for today we can stop at this point and we will read the rest of this next time and uh i think we can really feel pity for poor asalayana because from the start he knew that he wouldn't be able to dispute with the buddha and he didn't want to do this and he was just pushed into doing this and during the entire conversation he has not been able to come up with a single argument to counter all the arguments of the buddha so it must have been quite an embarrassing situation especially being watched by all by like this really large group of brahmins that have put all their hopes on you and they have so many expectations towards you especially because they considered you to be very bright and very smart so obviously that must have been a very very embarrassing and very unpleasant situation so we can feel for poor asalayna here and the sutra is not finished there are a lot more arguments coming and we can have a look at them next time so for now uh we can end the sutta discussion and i will have a look if there are any questions in the live chat so i see a lot of people checking in nice to see all of you good morning everyone or good afternoon for people who are in europe good evening for people who are in asia i hope everybody is doing well um let's see ah here's a question so pial and indica have a question and they say is brahma abiding is a more suitable translation for metta mudita karuna and upekka as you are suggesting compared to divine abidings so uh well in partly it's called the brahma viharas so brahma obviously refers to the brahma god brahma gods are very high gods they are reborn in the jhana plain so in order to be reborn as a brahma you can either practice the four janas or you can practice the four brahmaviharas obviously you have to practice them to a very high degree it's not sufficient to do that like five minutes every day you have to be quite proficient in those attainments in order to be reborn as a brahma and i think the reason why it is usually called divine abiding is because um [Music] most people don't really know what brahma is especially people who are not that well versed in buddhism maybe people just try to read the translation and try to make sense of that and if they don't have a teacher they might not know what brahma abiding is so translators try to make sure they understand this is a heavenly kind of rebirth for that reason they call it diviner bindings but obviously that can make that can confuse people very easily if they think that this might be a rebirth or a state of mind that is found in uh the higher god realms that are still in the central plain uh and so they might mistake feelings that they have or practices that they do for real matter if it's still tainted by sensual desire for example you can practice meta towards a loved one but at the same time it can still be tainted by sexual desire for example in that case it's not proper meta but if you mistake it and think uh this will lead to any kind of rebirth in any kind of quadrant even a lower god realm then um [Music] it's easy to mistake that if you call it divine abiding so um it's difficult to find a good translation obviously because brahma abiding is not easily understandable but divine abiding can lead to misunderstandings so the best way is to just understand what brahmavihara means and what a rebirth in a brahma realm means and obviously ask a teacher if things are unclear and yeah practice the brahmaviharas and then you will feel for yourself how those states are really really very very different from mental states that are connected with the kamaluka or the sensual realm so sometimes there's just no perfect translation and you just need to have an explanation together with the world okay there's one other question from peter and he asked when are you going to go over the abitama pitaka i think never so i am interested in the suta pitaka and the vinnie abu taka my knowledge of the abidama is very very superficial and there are many many monastics out there who are much more qualified than myself to talk about abidama so that's probably never going to happen uh and what i recommend if you're interested in the abu dhaba pitaka plenty of monastics who teach abhidama so i recommend just following one of them and i think that was the last question for today so i hope you enjoyed this suta um [Music] i hope it was helpful for you i think many of you have probably seen similar situations where people claim superiority which is obviously entirely unfounded because all kinds of superiority are based in delusion and conceit um and um this is something we encounter in our daily life quite a lot so that's why i picked this suta and i hope it was interesting for you i hope it was enjoyable for you and for today we will end with three sarus feel free to join if you like [Music] so have a good rest of the day and have a good week and i will see you all next tuesday | Vimalanyani Bhikkhuni | UCZFsQD_7SWLnVqo3dgKhMaw | 2022-08-18 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en

6PPGUAGDOyQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PPGUAGDOyQ | HEMA 101: How to Grip Your Sword | [Music] hello welcome again to Bell's fror the video educational series um today we're going to this is going to be a short video we're just going to talk about how to grip the sword so lot of instinct is I just want to grab that sucker and get my White Knuckle Titan grip on it that's not how we do it in hea um so we're going to do it's more like shaking hands with your sword or gripping a knife to cut a steak um is another way to think of it so rather than that hammer grip that goes all the way around the hilt like this we're going to kind of grab it so that our knuckle here is on top um and our thumb can lay on this other side here and this is with your dominant hand so it's my right hand if you're a lefty it would be reversed you would do that with your left hand um and your right hand would fall a suit so I'm I'm putting my dominant hand on first that's the one that's doing a lot of you know this type of motion I can get into The Swinging with my wrist here the left hand is going to come on and it's going to depend on what techniques we're doing where the left hand goes so the left hand might be here you might choke up together for certain moves you might grip the pommel or even grip behind the pommel something like this for certain thrusting motions so really Meer teaches What's called the live hands so your hands are going to going to be in motion so as I do different techniques you know my grips might actually shift a little bit with that as I do these different motions um so again here and you can see on Tyler's hands how it looks from the other angle um and then we'll insert some close-ups uh so the secondary thing that we might want to actually jump into for really quickly here is how to actually put that body mechanic using that grip into striking with the sword so instead of just holding it White Knuckle tight here you're actually holding fairly Loosely while you're holding while you're preparing when you strike out right at the Apex I'm going to grip and kind of my pinky will do a lot of the torquing on this all right so as it comes out here I tighten my grip right there so if I Were Striking at Tyler I'm loose I'm loose I'm loose and then right there so you can see just in that g dripping that I can get a little bit of force there so if Tyler's blade is out even if I'm right here just in that little piece I can get a lot of force just from that little little squeeze there using my pinkies leveraging and using that grip that we're talking about awesome thank you see you next [Music] time | Bellows Freifechter | UCfVStvguF_1akThxposbW1w | 2016-08-04 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 511 | 2,545 |
qvu7TFRmeG4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvu7TFRmeG4 | Open Science: state of play and perspective | well thank you kind introduction and thank you very much to the EPFL team for organizing this event good evening everyone I'm pleased and honored to give the first talk of the week it's quite a responsibility it's also quite a challenge when you know that the next event in the next room is called the hamburger prize which sounds quite appetizing and so I'm glad that some of you decided that you actually it was a better decision to talk about a more serious business to talk about open science and so thank you for sticking with us and you will be fed I understand anyway so I will start this open science week by talking about giving view giving you an overview of the situation in open science and I will it's such a large area that I will actually focus on one particular aspect of open science which is the transparency and reproducibility of empirical studies but before I get to that I think it's important to disclose something about myself I am a social scientists unlike you not an engineer so don't be too harsh on me please and I'm a social scientists have a background in economics and political science and but I think you will be hopefully will be beneficial for you because it will bring a slightly different perspective on open science and I'm fully aware that you some of the comments that I will make some of the observations and some of the recommendations may or may not apply to your own discipline and area of expertise but that what makes I believe such an event so interesting because we can compare the situation of open science in our different in respective disciplines and as a social scientist I'm particularly interested in a sub area of social science which I called meta research which is research on research and it's also known as the analysis of researchers behaviors so why is it that sometimes I'm interested in why sometimes researchers behave and why sometimes they misbehave but when you say when they be you misbehave you create an expectation and this expectation is what is a good behavior in what is a good scientific behavior in the first place there are many definitions but in this presentation I considered that producing research that is reproducible is a good scientific practice is what I consider a good behavior right so I will focus on the reproducibility of research and I believe that this is a fundamental norm of science what do I mean by reproducibility this definition is by Robert Peng Roger Peng sorry a study is reproducible if its results can be corroborated by independent investigators using the same data and codes it's related slightly difference from replicability which is the ability of the study to be corroborated by and even independent investigators using different data sets and different codes obviously the two terms are related please ignore the comment here that's it's not going to be addressed it will be addressed I will address both reproducibility and replicability what I just mean is that usually there are in my experience more there's more research about reproducibility because replicability is even more difficult to achieve than reproducibility so these comments being done this leads me to formulate four questions that are will briefly answer in this talk number one to what extent do researchers comply with the norm of reproducibility number two why do they comply or why do they fail to comply number three where do we go from here and what can you do yourself as a an individual research as an investigator and a member of the scientific community and then before does it matter so I will start with my an observation of the state of play in the fields and I think what triggers this is this presentation is the fact that there has been in the past two or three years a number of large-scale high-profile pro jects we're by researchers in different disciplines psychology cancer biology and economics have tried to replicate a large number of studies in their discipline so this is an example of these high profile projects this one is this is a study an article published in science very recently in June and it's an updates on the projects called reproducibility projects in cancer biology and it's a team of biologists trying to replicate a number of cancer studies I let you read the article in your own time but the take-home message here is that actually the researcher were quite pleased with the studies that they try to replicate because here they say that so it's an update on the project and they say that on the two most recent experiment studies that they try to replicate the investigators managed to replicate a large number of experiments within these two studies and they were quite pleased because they expected the had lower expectations basically but that's just one discipline in another discipline the things are do not look so good so in a discipline that I know better namely economics this is a similar projects whereby a team of economists try to replicate lab experiment and economists in economics and they found that 40% of experiments published experiments again could not be replicated is it low is it high this is for you to decide in yet another discipline psychology things are even worse so this is this article reports on the very large projects in which to over 200 psychologists tried to replicate 100 experiments in the area of psychology right and what they found is that actually half of these studies could not be replicated again is it high is it low it's for use not for me to say I would say simply that I think we can do better than this but bear in mind that there are there is variation from one discipline to another so it's hard to generalize and say that's you know the whole of research is not replicable or nor reproducible there are variations across disciplines I think actually that's the three studies that I mentioned just scratch the surface of things and I think that actually they're underestimates the the problem if you like this study here this survey of 1,500 scientists was published last year and in this survey the researchers asked so 1,500 scientists have you ever attempted a replication in your own discipline and if so what did you find out I do not remember exactly how many in what proportion of scientists did attempt to of the whole sample did attempt a replication but what I can tell you is that of those who did attempt a replication 70% did not manage did not manage to replicate the study that they try to replicate right and more interestingly 50% of those who had attempted a replication of one of their own studies did not succeed so a number of researchers seem to be unable to replicate their own work and is this surprising well think about it would you be yourself able to replicate a study that you conducted for example five years ago I think this is quite challenging but it's telling that 50% of researchers who attempt to replicate their own work do not succeed and there are two key problems researchers who try to replicate their own work or the work of other researchers face two problems and this is what they say not me first is that usually they don't get from the journal articles they don't get enough information about what was done in the first place so they cannot it's very difficult to them to go as far as getting because the experiment itself is hard to replicate there's not enough information about what was done in the first place how was the sample collected what was the what were the variables etc etc so second problem the statistical significance of results rarely holds between studies and it is very common that actually an original study claims that results are positive and statistically significant this is something that researchers love to report my results are positive and statistically significant but actually researchers who try to replicate the studies they do not question the the direction of the effects they do not question necessarily the magnitude of the effects but very often what they cannot replicate is the p-value right they find that actually the the effect is no longer statistically very often is not no longer statistically significant in in the replicated study so why do researchers fail or do why do they comply with this norm of reproducibility why do they fail to comply I offer a number of suggestions based on my own understanding of the literature first I would say that there is a problem of inadequate infrastructure but hopefully this is going to change and I'm actually quite optimistic that's the infrastructure the scientific in infrastructure is changing for the better people would say well I cannot put enough information in my paper about the experiment because of the limited work counts but now with digital publication this is less of an issue something we see very often is that or that we saw in the recent past is that there was no repository for the data or that there was the different systems or the different software or programs used by the researchers were not interoperable so that it's an issue that's often mentioned and then there are intellectual property issues the facts that some researchers do not want to share information because it's commercially politically or whatever sensitive a second problem I think has to do with the incentive that are in that we are subjected to as researchers I think that the current system rewards quantity I would say over quality low productivity is sanctioned think about how people are hired promoted in the university think about yourself I think that inconvenience results are sanctions what do I mean by an inconvenient result I mean results that are not statistically significant and that do not make a good story right people see a lot of researchers believe that statistically significant results make a good story conversely null or insignificant results do not make a good story and and some journals in the past in the recent past didn't want to publish results were biased against studies that were where the main result was not statistically significant conversely a reproducibility is not sanctioned what's what's going to happen to you if your paper is not very transparent or it's not reproducible what are the chances that someone is going to notice and and you know blame you I think that so far they've been quite low I think that there are a number of ethical and legal obstacles which I don't need to mention here at great length that have previously nemily and I think that there are problems of insufficient skills among us and a key problem with this p-value thing right why our research is so fetishist about the p-value at least certainly in the field of social sciences understand that in physics it's slightly different I think it has to do with the misunderstanding about the meaning and the properties of the p-value and I believe that p-values are not the reliable benchmark that's many people think I believe that p-values have become a textbook example what I call of what is called the good hearts Lowe named after Charles Goodhart we who is a professor of financial regulation of my alma mater the London School of Economics and the good heart law states that when the measure becomes a target it ceases to be a good measure and I think this is exactly what's happening with the p-value it's meant to be a measure but now increasingly it's a targets okay I need to have my p-values lower than 0.05 in a lot of disciplines and think about what a difference a p-value makes it makes a huge difference and there's high stakes here I can make the difference between introducing a new drug on the market or not but it can also make the difference between rolling outs for governments running out a new policy in the country versus not so we use p-values these days to make very important decisions where do we go from here I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm I think there's things that we can do collectively and individually first I think that research teams ourselves we need to scale up and we need to scale up particularly interest and statistics to better understand for example this meaning of the p-value and what it does and data science especially when it comes to curates and an archive and and and and keep a good record of our work flow I think that research teams needs to pre-register their studies something we talk a lot in the social sciences so increasingly people pre-register their hypotheses so that their hands are tied and when they have access to the data they just have to run the models that they said they would I think that research teams needs to better curate their workflows for example using tools such as the Open Science framework which I use personally or github and there are many others I think that research teams and this is the social scientist speaking here is probably something that you will find a bit odd I think that's research teams I would argue that research teams need to reflect on what could effects their professional judgment for example who gave you funding for that particular study and is there a conflict of interests if you are funded by it might be controversial given that we're in Switzerland but if you are funded by a pharmaceutical company to run a clinical trial think about the pressure and think about the conflict of interest you might find yourself in research teams should be well advised and this is a something that would strongly encourage as research teams will be well advised to attempt to replication at least once in their career I think it's an excellent learning technique and does it matter I think it does matter for three reasons and I will finish there I think it matters because this problem of a reproducibility and and insufficient replicability is being noticed it's not just discussion of you know amongst colors there are regularly articles in prominent journal also like The Economist's like Washington Post so very often if you pay attention there are stories embarrassing stories for the scientists that science is not reproducible there's even a number of bestsellers this is a bestseller by by Ben Goldacre about about about science I think it matters secondly because at the end of the day the interventions the treatments that we devise and test as researchers will be later on implemented or meant to be rolled out to real people right so I'm as a social scientist I evaluate interventions that are meant to be rolled out to job seekers to pupils to patients and you know we have a responsibility to make sure that these people are or you know receive treatments or an intervention that has been properly evaluated and finally I think it matters because a lot of us do research that is funded by the taxpayer and it's a huge waste of taxpayer money to run studies to run studies and only publish the results that are convenient to you or convenience to the funder of of the study thank you very much I think we have time for a few questions and and do stay in touch if you don't have a chance to ask a question or if you want to follow up thank you if you have questions that's a great talk thank you thank you I'm curious if good arts law is going to basically foil any metrics that are designed what is the solution for evaluating science so I think that we can still use metrics to evaluate science as long as the metric is valid for example I would argue that the impact factor is not valid metric if it measures if it's meant to measure this the how good the research is and I think that very often it's misused right I think the p-value is being misused as well I'm not saying that we should disregard p-values I think that when we need metrics but we need not just one metric the the risk when you introduce a metric is to rely on just one metric I think one metric is dangerous I would rather use a basket of indicators and then you can you know compare the different metrics and and see what it says about a particular study so how the basket of indicators as opposed to just a single metric and the second thing is that make sure that is that is as as a social scientist we say construct validity it really measures what it's supposed to measure so if you want to measure the quality if you want to measure the reproducibility for example of other piece of research you know is the data set available is the code available etc I think these are would be good metrics for measuring transparency or reproducibility because it has some kind of validity I would argue thanks thank you very much I just want to underline about what you said about intellectual properties in journals and about what about journal journals and you said it closed I want to share with you that it's depend of the context but it is possible to share and having another open ended if you put it open-ended it will be better and we keep it that if you want what what do know about IP yeah so did I say that when something is published in a journal it becomes close by definition if so I must apologize and clarify that it's not the case there are open access journals and so I thank you for for bringing that up because this is not exactly what I wanted to say you | Bibliothèque de l'EPFL | UCOylyf3oGEBGF-0gWYsBWqQ | 2017-10-03 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en |

QvSTgaCE16o | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvSTgaCE16o | I hated growing up in Japan | I hated growing up in Japan growing up in Japan was hell for me I am half black half Japanese and the black part was the only thing that kids in Japan could ever see they would always be so nice and respectful in public or at school but when they were behind a computer screen I got called slurs and was told to commit suicide by people who I thought were my friends I even considered actually doing it when I was in high school The Bullying was so bad that kids were kicking me outside of school and teachers and students just walked on by I had no friends at all everyone was so ignorant too even the teachers they would try to get me to play basketball or they would put on rap music like I was born and raised here I even noticed my mom was disappointed that I wasn't fully Japanese she always treated me like a burden and made me go to my room whenever we had guests or went in public I had so much internalized racism at that point when I got old enough I left the country and I live in the U.S now people here are nicer and I have black friends now I feel accepted and loved I still will never get over the trauma though I remember crying every night hating myself I even noticed my mom was disappointed that I wasn't fully Japanese she always treated me like a burden and made me go to my room whenever we had guests or went in public uh hate to ask but what did she think would happen when she married and had a child with a black man people should really see this more I don't think that the people that wanna move to Japan realize how hateful and racist they are towards foreigners in my life I would absolutely love to visit Japan at least once but I would 100 not live there even if I was offered to Japan is one of the most racist countries out there they just hide it better than most newer Japanese girl and a Korean guy who were dating in college when they got engaged her grandmother threatened suicide grew up half Latina in Hokkaido and was called gaijing up until 18 went to college and everyone thought I acted very Japanese LOL what an identity crisis it is to grow up in a country where you only count as half now working in Tokyo and made lots of other half friends a Happy support system changed everything but I still feel uneasy with older Generations Americans think racism is rampant here but they haven't traveled to Essie Asia not only do most nationalities look down on each other but they also aren't a fan of other races whites are commonly not allowed into Korean or Japanese businesses without a local chaperone if you're black or even just fairly dark there's solid odds you won't be allowed in at all they'll eventually have to get over their contempt for anyone who isn't 100 Japanese since their birth rate is collapsing so much Japan has always been a xenophobic racist Society even among other Asians they've historically looked down on Koreans Chinese and just about every other culture on the planet I'm so sorry you went through this but I remember being bullied when I was young for being black in the 80s and 90s in America too so I'm glad you've had better experiences here IM also black and Japanese but I grew up in the U.S and I used to wish I hadn't but growing up I realized it wouldn't have been worth it just here for the suburban American neckbeard who never once set foot in Japan because ex-chucky vs the truth you aren't the first black person I heard about this from since a lot of them I knew who went to Japan stayed on base or close to tourist areas I hung out with a Japanese person once and she ranted on how she hated blacks and Hispanics I'm sorry you went through this people are so amazing in every shape and form your mix of races makes you unique and you you have a story to tell and you're full of culture that's so much better than being just one thing there is an instagramer called Ryan Alexander's half black half Chinese and I love his content he talks a lot about accepting yourself and your culture and blending his two cultures together and being proud give a few of his videos a watch and hopefully it will uplift you a bit like it did me best of luck I'm so sorry this was your experience China is also horribly racist Japan has a reputation that's well earned for being incredibly racist they're even racist towards other Asian peoples highly nationalistic and xenophobic I'm sorry your mom also encouraged this kind of racism and never did anything to stand up for you I hope your experience in the US has been better though we have our own racism issues as well that's Japan for you interestingly enough they've committed war crimes in World War one and World War II going against the Geneva Convention but no one talks about them because Germany had Hitler and Russia had Stalin but Japan was just as bad as a black person myself I know Asians tend to be racist towards black people or minorities this is actually sick I wish I could give you a hug bro the halflings usually get the worst of it even in fiction dead ass sorry though I was in Japan for 13 years end up marriage meet my husband Korean parents but he was born in Japan there I'm Brazilian and had one daughter she had identity problems I'm not full Brazilian or Japanese or Korean it was in big problem and she over and over try to explain could be friends or relatives I moved to Los Angeles when she was nine years old and after that little by little she stopped failing an alien Japan is a tough place to be it's one thing to visit there but to live there amongst the people and knowing the language can be a different experience LOL your mom literally made you with a black man but was disappointed with you being half his race make that make sense hahaha Japan has more xenophobia and racism than most places and clearly there are parts of the U.S that still do too too but one thing that always bothers me in Japan is when there are restaurants with signs saying no foreigners allowed or Japanese only like imagine if they had something like that here in the states LOL why is everyone so surprised Japan is racist AF the image they portray to the international world is way different I mean nobody acts the way they do at home at the mall even the cleaning after themselves at stadiums and extreme politeness is so that you'll never believe how racist they truly are even half Japanese other Asian ethnicities people hell even if they can't tell unless you tell them their attitude will change towards you as soon as they find out they even act betrayed if it's the latter why didn't your dad help you out I'm so glad you moved there is a super cool American Japanese black man who hosts a podcast called The Daily Zeitgeist he speaks Japanese because his mother helped him learn his name is Miles Gray just thought you might like to see someone who resembles yourself in a position of somewhat power he is at least confident in himself now he regularly speaks about feeling like you did Growing Up hold your head high and be proud of yourself you made it through all that and are here to tell the story hang in there knowing how racist Asian communities are even against each other I can only imagine what you went through up I hope someday the world will get over this really stupid stupid Behavior as a fellow ablation I feel for you and feel that with you no one wants to talk about how racist a lot of Asian cultures are back in high school I was a chubby white kid on a competitive Japanese hockey team Prejudice is there for sure but luckily it never got too bad for me I am so sorry this happened to you I can't even begin to imagine how it must have felt like for a black person to grow up with such extreme racism my aunt was a white blonde woman with green eyes and she felt the xenophobia heck I have a half Japanese friend who doesn't look like she's a foreigner in Japan has a Japanese name and surname and all and she still remembers The Bullying she suffered for the year she lived there when she was five people think Japan is a wonderful non-problematic place but that's not true Japan is known to be racist and ethnocentric have abysmal mental health care and acceptance and historical censorship and revisionism most notably regarding war crimes from World War II while they have gotten better about the Comfort women rape of Nanjing and Unit 731 due to International pressure many more atrocities are still hidden from Japanese citizens I swear being black is such a strange experience every race hates you for no goddamn reason how could your mother be disappointed you weren't fully Japanese isn't that her doing Japanese people seem like they can be really mean in like a lacking empathy way I don't know though I'm sorry you suffered so much I wish people everywhere were just better people this is awful I'm so sorry you went through that you deserved better people can be so disgusting I am Chinese and my partner is Filipino we have two daughters together but my mother sees my partner as subhuman say [ __ ] like them Filipino humans don't act like that Etc and kept telling my daughter that she is Chinese not Filipino I studied abroad in Japan in college I often tell people it's a beautiful place to visit but I would never raise my black children there even if they had ended up biracial I'm so sorry you had to go through that experience as a child op it's always so weird to me that Japan is as racist as it is because and I know anime nerds are the minority over their LOL of how I'd individuated and unique so many TV cartoon pop culture characters are I guess very generally speaking of FC being unique or eccentric is a fantasy Something Something About the Nail that stands out gets hammered down your mom got pregnant by a book and is upset that you're not fully black woozy face woozy face woozy face woozy face woozy face Japanese can be very hostile to all foreigners I know a white guy who lived there for 10 years and spoke Japanese fluently being asked to leave a restaurant because no foreigners wow now I'm worried for my friend and his kids that are living in Japan he's from an African country married with the Japanese I've heard some countries can be bad for black people South Korea is one also so sorry you had to go through that your mum is an R you are worthy you're good enough Just the Way You Are so sad how her skin color is so dividing those parents ain't raise their kids right JFC I am so sorry you had to grow up like that I wish you happiness and contentment in the rest of your life | Story Time | UCVqlIaslNifvFodN91gfKeg | 2023-05-24 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

5NegH3rbt6k | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NegH3rbt6k | Tooting open for business | well I'm delighted to be here in Tooting today going around talking to local businesses understanding what their challenges are you know what's worrying them what what is it right now that has lockdown eases how are they going to manage and is there anything that we can do to help them on this interesting journey that we're all on yeah none of us have done this before so we really need to help each other we have introduced quite a few safety measures so we've got a one-way system happening in the store as we have to doors we've also got tape we've shot the taped every two meters so that everyone keeps a distance and we're only letting in three people at a time without it being too daunting but just subtle hints that we are aware that there is an issue and we do want to you know make you feel safe and comfortable when you come into the store we have hand sanitizers that all the entrance points we have hand sanitizers at the toilet areas we have the vending machine for selling masks and to go with cashless as much as possible but there's still some cash we never approach the drivers who leave the orders for them they go to the order they take they check the number and they take a pick up gloves and aprons as well as measures the the 2 meter distancing etc are all in place so people know I hope they can reduce the 2 meter to 1 meter as this our shops are quite small so we do move around we will then use our ultrasound cleaners for 2 minutes in order to disinfect and at 60 degrees we've been advised that it will kill all the germs we've had an enormous amount of assistance from the council in the sense that they want us to be here they value us and they value our position in the community so I really really have to say the council has been wonderful the council have been fantastic as soon as we went into lockdown we were given a grant for 25,000 to help us through documents particularly with risk assessment issues which the council is helping us with so it's quite helpful we've got into what might describe his recovery phase we've been thinking much more about how do we help businesses open up again in a in a secure manner so and keep their customers safe yeah anything we can do yeah we got a really strong team that's who's been working hard to support local business | WandsworthBC | UChZM5zwsvxENvjHYwZtFTbA | 2020-06-18 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 440 | 2,303 |
R7pByW8NGiY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7pByW8NGiY | Loading An Edible Grinder | ladies gentlemen boys and girls welcome to kingfisher's YouTube channel don't forget to like subscribe and press the Bell icon for notification of up and coming new videos [Applause] [Music] today I'm going to be talking about spooling and edible reel for obviously edible fish grinder style so what I'm going to be using is my bgmq 14000 the reason I've chosen it it's got a 15 kilo drag it weighs 630 grams so it's nice and light um it's one of the the reels that I've been testing over the last couple of months and it's absolutely phenomenal I'm going to top it up with 30 pound J braid it's a round braid it's extremely thin and it throws an incredible mark as backing I'm going to be using my trophy braid and on this one I've got 40 pound as backing the reason you put a slightly heavier backing is rather not joins the pr not joins from the 40 pound to the 30 pound you need your backing to be slightly stronger than your Top Shot okay very important to remember that backing needs to be stronger than your Top Shot um you don't want your fish to be taking line on you and your backing is weaker or thinner because obviously it's going to pot okay so always remember keep your backing a lot thicker or stronger than the line that you actually put as your Top Shot need a pair of mustard scissors and obviously PR bobbin to fill it what I'm going to do is I'm going to use two spools I'm going to just grab another spool there remember when filling your reel never to overfull it because you'll get wind knots and and how that is caused is the the braid underneath gets pulled off before the top braid gets pulled off you also don't want to Under full it because if you under full you're real you're obviously impeding the distance that you can throw okay the less braid you have on it the less distance you get so just remember that okay so let's get started to fill my reel I'm going to put on 30 pound Jay braid and like I said before get a stick a cloth anything like that to apply a little bit of pressure and yeah good to go I'm going to carry on winding this quickly so what I'm doing is I'm putting the Top Shot on first and then I'm going to put the backing on and then I'm going to reverse it onto my spool okay that is the best way to get the precise measurement 100 correct okay I'm gonna take my 40 pound backing my trophy braid and the reason I use a trophy braid as backing it's very inexpensive but still very good as far as quality goes and it lasts a long time which I think is more important than anything else it just carries on going at last it doesn't Fray it doesn't get old doesn't rot so our trophy braid is absolutely phenomenal like that and drop it on the floor put my glasses on and again the easiest way to do it is just take your two braids put them Side by each and then just once you've set your tension on your pee or bobbin here we go and again all I'm going to do is half hitch on the left half inch on the right I'm going to do it six times and we're going to carry on from there once I've done my first half inch what I do is I actually just pull the knot to make sure it sits properly it seats itself there we go and now I'm going to do high features five more times all the way along to the left one to the right one to the left one to the right again remember to keep tension on the spool and we just carry on falling [Music] so it took another 150 meters of 40 pound so I've got 450 meters on my spool I'm now going to take the original spool and fill it and you'll see there's a little rubber like o-ring in the center yeah very important if you don't have it once you've tied your figure of eight you need to take a bit of insulation tape and wrap that around to stop the actual knot from twisting on the inside of your spool very important especially when the spools under pressure or under tension or even when you're trying to break off in the Rocks the braid sometimes slips so here we go we're going to tie our figure of eight around once twice so you've done overhand granny knot basically twice wrap it around the spool and tie your figure of eight and don't forget top right hand side is a link to tying figure of eights there we go there's a figure of eight turn it over pull it through slide it down and around that's rubber okay this rubber is what's going to bite in and stop the the braid from moving on your spool when it's under tension very important okay here we go guys so this is my PR knots coming up remember to try and keep it as close to the left hand side as possible and the reason we keep it on the left is so when you're fighting a fish and the fish is taking line on you that the other braid on the left hand side doesn't catch it and pull it through you don't want to create any extra drag other than what your drag system is actually giving you so here we go I'm going to make sure it's on the left bar wanting it as close to that lip as possible there we go all I do is I just cover it up a couple of times and then just carry on winding there we go there we go once again it's flash it's straight leaving a little bit of space to tie my braided lid on guys very important that okay so let me get to do a braided leader okay now that I've got my braid on the Reel I'm going to tie my leader now the leader is the part that's going to go two or three times around the actual spool up through the rod with a little bit of a drop so because I'm going to pair this up with a 13 6 MLS saltust Rod I'm going to make it about 5.2 meters in length I can always cut it down if I have to tie the Pure or not again straight through wrap it around the O-ring 10 times around one two three four five six seven eight ten times around now as far as braid leader goes you can use anything because this is a 30 pound outfit you can use anything from say 60 pound to 120 pound is more than ample I wouldn't go heavier than 120 pounds but y'all 100 pound standard good to go okay let's start pure not and again just cross the two lines like so grab wrap around your hand twice it's the quickest easiest way of doing it and go because I'm going to be throwing it through the eyes I keep it quite small my knots so I don't want it anything longer than that for costing purposes and remember this is going to be on your reel and throwing through all your guards so keep it quite small there's my knot there I'm going to do a half hitch up over and around pull tight let go and now it's on the seat the braid properly so bite into the other bride the braid leader okay so I've done one half hitch there that you can see now I'm just gonna do pretty much six more so I've got one well actually five more sorry six in total two and I Alternate which way I go three four five six times not to finish it off I do what they call a risotto so the risotto basically does a half Edge and we just carry on going through it to three four five six times lay the tag end next to the leader and just pull it ever so slightly they want to do to do the reverse risotto is I just unwind the whole thing one two three four five six times and if you look carefully yeah you'll see that when I pull this tag end the braid actually goes underneath all six of those little Loops that I've made and those Loops are what actually lock it in place so it doesn't come undone so there we go I'm going to pull it slowly slowly slowly and then you put a strategy possibly can like so cut off the tag in as close as you can cut off your braid leader and there we go that's as big as you want to keep Your Leader knot from your reel to your brain leader some girls start very big there's no need to the longer you make it the more chance you got of it wrapping around your actual guards there we go guys that's how long the pr nut needs to be or FG okay once you've measured off the distance that you want it to be cut it and for this for my 1360 MLS it's about 5.2 meters and you can't go wrong with it for an edible outfit it's absolutely phenomenal thank you don't forget all the tackle you see here that we've shown you is available from leading tackle stores nationwide as well as our Kingfisher branches [Music] | The KingFisher Fishing | UC8f8U0GjLGWFaEiUjs-n01w | 2022-12-23 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en

YRp_KXQKU7M | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRp_KXQKU7M | ASMR Skyrim Let's Play: Khajiit Becomes Mobster[12] | [Music] hey everyone welcome back to Skyrim now if you recall we just got kidnapped by the Dark Brotherhood so that's great so we're gonna probably explore some area around here maybe check out what this area has to offer for exploration purposes actually let's see what kind of quests we have in the system we have a Dark Brotherhood start the break of dawn stupid dog guard quest more dark Diedrich stuff let's go me to darpur actually I don't want to do that quite yet I don't know should I maybe go say hi to all the members the Dark Brotherhood and start my assassination questline because I mean I'm really considering it because I mean like well oh my crabs frostbite spiders in their mind so I don't know I mean I only want to get too involved with a quest line right now I just kind of want to chill and do whatever I want to for a while hmm but it seems I really want that Dark Brotherhood armor this is not a fair fight I'm gonna pull a Sherlock Holmes here and this mustn't register an emotion let's first open up inventory step up flames easy that is like one of my favorite movie scenes of all time is in the first Sherlock home movie or a Robert Downey jr. playing Sherlock sees Irene Adler in the the bar crowd and gets distracted and then it's a big old bump on the head for a being distracted and little fight he enters that um that uh let's see or dangers that like weird like a Sherlock mind phase where he's like analyzing everything around him and it was it starts with this Munson register emotional level first and then it breaks down how he's gonna be asleep ripple the guy with like a an in-depth review of what he's gonna strike with when he's gonna strike with it and how he's gonna strike with it and then it happens exactly as he plans it to I hope that was a pretty cool uh sequence of movie scenes whether there's a fight going on between something I'm going to bet bandits and necromancer's considering what we saw earlier contraire never mind and there's a banner right there I was fast Rafe stop rushing me as the kids would say nowadays victory royale number one please have pity on me I don't think any of the play games like 49 just because I have a really bad problem I'm getting way too involved in what I'm doing and that brings out a a very aggressive I need to go sell stuff yeah why does everything have to be so worth so much stop there how is the Khajiit supposed to make going where is the entrance to this temple huh this is a Nordic temple right okay let's go and sell all my stuff for friendlier rift all right what are you doing it is not a sprint that's a sprint I wonder why I wonder why there's a new lady in charge in the orphanage oh you're eating breakfast my bad I'll wait until there we go don't ask where I got these things from just deal with it alright now let's go visit the forge boy and see what kind of fun stuff we can do over here all right back to crafting actually let's do a is such a con-artist can you imagine like just trying to like make a living like you know you're selling jewelry selling armor selling trinkets from your own world and this dude just shows up I'm selling bomber blood it makes you live forever see I wasn't exaggerating I get kind of funny though and just in general like you know all these people are going to be like an honest living and then he is just like it'll make you love better in bed I'll make you grow an extra limb you'll live forever all with faller blood everyone's like just shut up you stupid merchant everyone knows you're in the Thieves Guild vampire hunters or something enchantment off of these so I probably should have actually saved that take anything Shane off of those two huh excuse my disorganization but I'm in the middle of some delicate experiments Mimmi wouldn't hurt to make some finite anted stuff that's my loved ones mean shaming Lola anyways actually that's pretty high that's such a funny name a soul squeezer since a guy like uh nineteen eighties anime evil and I don't know I'm tired is he actually have like okay citizens tell anything really important I guess let's go there we go you and see we do anything I'm sorry smell like I haven't already been through the rat way or anything oh that's weird there's nothing but corpses how interesting you say unlock that gate last time I was there ooh am i doing there we go the rocket flagon thieves guild territory you need advice talk to Bernie off we've all heard that one before Brynn quit kidding yourself and so we're gonna be doing now is threatening the poor people our Rifton and convincing them to pay up so something that I usually wouldn't be doing but because it's part of the stupid quest line I have to do it you know the difference between Skyrim and fallout new vegas is that besides the obvious in this quest you have to go and you know basically go with the quest no matter what I mean there is a few couple secrets but it does really matter and in Fallout New Vegas you could probably rally the city to turn against the Thieves Guild and call it good ok it's following the Vegas is a fantastic game I might mod it and then do a playthrough of it do you own goal or not I want to give you some gold fine kind of cool though that I know the Baker's would excuse me something to drink my family means too much to me don't hurt them yeah take this back to bring y'all and tell him you don't have no more trouble from me I'm so sorry all right [Music] this is a really strong urn there we go Wow did you because we did I might need to change my reputation precedes me good you are tired it's been a nightmare how was I to know she was such a wretched woman so now I'm stuck living here while those pigs she calls customers groped me and say the most awful things it's not just the work it's everything about her she's disgusting I

4PZJrhcAs1M | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PZJrhcAs1M | Croats | Wikipedia audio article | Croat Croatian HR vadi pronounced xrt or Croatians are a nation and South Slavic ethnic group native to Croatia cro it's mainly live in croatia and bosnia and herzegovina but are also recognized minorities in such countries as Austria the Czech Republic Germany Hungary Italy Montenegro Romania Serbia Slovakia and Slovenia due to political social and economic reasons many Croats my greated to North and South America as well as Australia and New Zealand establishing a diaspora thousands did so as war criminals particularly to Argentina Austria Chile and Paraguay in the aftermath of world war ii with grassroots assistance from their diaspora in the roman catholic church crow acts are mostly Roman Catholics the Croatian language is official in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as in the European Union and as a recognized minority language within Croatian autochthonous communities and minorities in Montenegro Austria Burgenland Italy meliza Romania kara Sava lupa and Serbia budge vadhana topic history topic formative period topic the Dark Ages evidence is rather scarce for the period between the 7th and 8th centuries seee archaeological evidence shows population continuity in coastal Dalmatia and Istria in contrast much of the Dinaric hinterland appears to have been depopulated as virtually all hilltop settlements from Noricum to dar Dania were abandoned only few appear destroyed in the early 7th century although the dating of the earliest Slavic settlements is still disputed there is a hiatus of almost a century the origin timing and nature of the Slavic migrations remain controversial however all available evidence points to the nearby de Nubian and Carpathian regions topic Croat ethnogenesis the ethnonym Croat is first attested during the ninth century CE II in the charter of Duke TR Pamir and indeed begins to be widely attested throughout Central and Eastern Europe during the 9th and 10th centuries much uncertainty revolves around the exact circumstances of their appearance given the scarcity of literary sources during the 7th and 8th century Dark Ages traditionally scholarship has placed the arrival of the crow ATS in the 7th century primarily on the basis of the later byzantine document to administer ando Imperia as such the arrival of the crow ATS was seen as a second wave of Slavic migrations which liberated Dalmatia from Avar hegemony however as early as the 1970s scholars questioned the reliability of porphyra jena de swert written as it was in the 10th century rather than being an accurate historical account to administer ando imperio more accurately reflects the political situation during the 10th century it mainly served as byzantine propaganda praising emperor heraclius for repopulating the balkans previously devastated by the Avars with Croats and Serbs who are seen by the Byzantines as tributary peoples living on what had always been Roman land scholars have hypothesized the name Croat burbot may be Iranian thus suggesting that the Croatians were possibly a Sarmatian tribe from the pondok region who were part of a larger movement at the same time that the Slavs were moving toward the adriatic the major basis for this connection was the perceived similarity between her Vaught and inscriptions from the tane dated to the 2nd and 3rd century CE II mentioning the name Koro U at those similar arguments have been made for an alleged gothic Croat link whilst there is indeed possible evidence of population continuity between gothic and Croatian times in parts of Dalmatia the idea of a gothic origin of Croats was more rooted in twentieth-century use days political aspirations than historical reality contemporary scholarship views the rise of Croat as an autochthonous dalmatian response to the demise of the Avar Khanate and the encroachment of Frankish and Byzantine empires into northern Dalmatia they appear to have been based around ninh and cliffs down to the Cetina and south of Liburnian here concentrations of the old Croat culture abound marked by some very wealthy warrior burials dating to the ninth century CE II topic other polities in Dalmatia and Pannonia other distinct polities also existed near the Croat Duchy these included the Guddu scans based in liber Nia the Narron teens around the Cetina and neretva and the Surabhi Serbs who ruled some other eastern parts of X Roman Dalmatia also prominent in the territory of future Croatia was the polity of Prince Ludovic who ruled the territories between the drama and Sava rivers Pannonia inferior centered from his fort at cysec although due khludov it and his people are commonly seen as a Pannonian crow acts he is due to the lack of evidence that they had a sense of Croat identity referred to as Dukes Pannonia inferiorities or simply a Slav by contemporary sources however soon the crow hats became the dominant local power in northern Dalmatia absorbing Lavernia and expanding their name by conquest and prestige in the south while having periods of Independence the nara Dean's also merged with crow at slater under control of croatian kings with such expansion croatia soon became dominant power and absorb other polities between Frankish Bulgarian and Byzantine Empire although the chronicle of the priests of dukhia has been dismissed as an unreliable record the mentioned red Croatia suggests that Croatian clans and families might have settled as far south as dukhia zeta and city of Drac in today's Albania topic early medieval age the lands which constitute modern Croatia fell under three major Geographic politics owns during the Middle Ages which were influenced by powerful neighbor empires notably the Byzantines the Avars and later magyars franks and boulders each vied for control of the northwest balkan regions nevertheless two independent slavic dukedoms emerged sometime during the 9th century the Croat duchy and principality of lower Pannonia topic Pannonian principality Sevilla having been under Avar control lower Pannonia became a march of the Carolingian Empire around 800 aided by Voina Mir in 796 the first named Slavic Duke of Pannonia the Franks wrested control of the region from the Avars before totally destroying the Avar realm in 803 after the death of Charlemagne in 814 Frankish influence decreased on the region allowing Prince Ludovic pozharsky to raise a rebellion in 819 the Frankish margrave's sent armies in 800 2821 and 822 but each time they failed to crush the rebels aided by born of the Guddu scan the franks eventually defeated Ludovic who withdrew his forces to the Serbs and conquered them according to the Frankish annals for much of the subsequent period Sevilla was probably directly ruled by the Corinthian Duke Arnulf the future East Frankish king and Emperor however Frankish control was far from smooth the Royal Frankish annals mentioned several bulgur raids driving up the Sava and drama rivers as a result of a border dispute with the francs from 827 by a peace treaty in 845 the franks were confirmed as rulers over Slavonia whilst sri Djem remained under bulgarian client edge later the expanding power of great Moravia also threatened Frankish control of the region in an effort to halt their influence the franks sought alliance with the Magyars and elevated the local slovak leader breslov in 892 as a more independent Duke over lower Pannonia in 896 his rule stretched from Vienna and Budapest to southern Croat duchies and included almost whole of ex Roman Pannonian provinces whole for he probably died see 900 fighting against his former allies the Magyars the subsequent history of sevilla again becomes murky and historians are not sure who controlled sevilla during much of the 10th century however it is likely that the ruler Thomas law the first crowned King was able to exert much control over Sevilla and adjacent areas during his reign it is indeed at this time that sources first refer to a Pannonian Croatia appearing in the 10th century Byzantine work to administer Ando

region but failed to defeat them the Bulgarian King Boris the first called by the Byzantine Empire arch on to Bulgaria after he made Christianity the official religion of Bulgaria also waged a lengthy war against the Dalmatian Croat trying to expand his state to the Adriatic the croatian prince TR premiere the first 845 to 864 succeeded Mislav in 854 there was a great battle between TR Pamirs forces and the boulders neither side emerged victorious and the outcome was the exchange of gifts and the establishment of peace TR Pamir I managed to consolidate power over Dalmatia and much of the inland regions towards Pannonia while instituting counties as a way of controlling his subordinates an idea he picked up from the Franks the first known written mention of the crow acts dates formed the 4th of March 852 in statute by TR Pamir TR Pamir is remembered as the initiator of the trip Amira Vic dynasty that ruled in Croatia with interruptions from 845 until 10 91 after his death an

countries croatian design more commonly uses symbolism from the coat of arms rather than from the Croatian flag this is partly due to the geometric design of the shield which makes it appropriate for use in many graphic contexts eg the insignia of Croatia Airlines or the design of the shirt for the Croatian national football team and partly because neighboring countries like Slovenia and Serbia used the same pan-slavic colours on their flags as Croatia the Croatian interlace Pleader or droplet is also a commonly used symbol which originally comes from monasteries built between the 9th and

americas largely to canada the United States of America Chile and Argentina with smaller communities in Brazil Peru and Ecuador as well as to Australia New Zealand and South Africa in the end of 19th and early 20th century large numbers of Croat emigrated particularly for economic reasons a further larger wave of emigration this time for political reasons took place after the end of the World War two at this time both collaborators of the eustacia regime and those who did not want to live under a communist regime fled the country to the Americas in oceania once more as immigrant workers particularly to Germany Austria and Switzerland in the 1960s and 1970s in addition some emigrants left for political reasons this migration made it possible for communist Yugoslavia to achieve lower unemployment and at the same time the money sent home by emigrants to their families provided an enormous source of foreign exchange income the last large wave of Croat emigration occurred during and after the Yugoslav wars 1991 to 1995 migrant communities already established in the Americas Oceania and across Europe grew as a result the count for diaspora is approximate because of incomplete

9tn9fA1SB1M | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tn9fA1SB1M | Monarchy | Wikipedia audio article | a monarchy is a form of government in which a group generally a group of people representing a dynasty aristocracy embodies the country's national identity and its head the monarch exercises the role of sovereignty the actual power of the monarch may vary from purely symbolic crowned Republic to partial and restricted constitutional monarchy to completely autocratic absolute monarchy traditionally the Monarchs post is inherited and lasts until death or abdication in contrast elective monarchies require the monarch to be elected both types have further variations as there are widely divergent structures and traditions defining monarchy for example in some elected monarchies only pedigrees are taken into account for eligibility of the next ruler whereas many hereditary monarchies impose requirements regarding the religion age gender mental capacity etc occasionally this might create a situation of rival claimants whose legitimacy is subject to effective election there have been cases where the term of a monarchs reign is either fixed in years or continues until certain goals are achieved and invasion being repulsed for instance monarchic rule was the most common form of government until the 19th century it is now usually a constitutional monarchy in which the monarch retains a unique legal and ceremonial role but exercise is limited or no official political power under the written or unwritten Constitution others have governing authority currently 45 sovereign nations in the world have monarchs acting as heads of state 16 of which are Commonwealth realms that recognise queen elizabeth ii as their head of state most modern European monarchies are constitutional and hereditary with a largely ceremonial role with the exception of the Vatican which is an elective theocracy and the principalities of Liechtenstein and Monaco where the Monarchs exercised unrestricted Authority the monarchies of Cambodia and Malaysia are constitutional with a largely ceremonial role despite possessing significantly more social and legal clout than their European counterparts the Monarchs of Brunei Morocco Oman Qatar Saudi Arabia and Swaziland have more political influence than any other single source of authority in their nations either by tradition or a constitutional mandate topic etymology the word monarch latin menorca comes from the greek language word monarches monarch is from mandos manos one singular an arco Arco to rule compare Archon Archon leader ruler chief which referred to a single at least nominally absolute ruler in current usage the word monarchy usually refers to a traditional system of hereditary rule as elective monarchies are rare nowadays topic history the form of societal hierarchy known as chiefdom or tribal kingship is prehistoric the Greek term monarchia is classical used by Herodotus 3.8 to the monarch in classical antiquity is often identified as king or ruler translating Archon basileus rex tyranno's etc horas Queen translating vasily 'no from earliest historical times with the Egyptian and Mesopotamian monarchs as well as in reconstructed proto-indo-european religion the king holds sacral function directly connected to sacrifice or is considered by their people to have divine ancestry the role of the Roman Emperor as the protector of Christianity was conflated with the sacral aspects held by the Germanic kings to create the notion of divine right of kings in the Christian Middle Ages the Chinese Japanese and Nepalese monarchs continued to be considered living gods into the modern period since antiquity monarchy has contrasted with forms of democracy where executive power is wielded by Assemblies of free citizens in antiquity monarchies were abolished in favour of such assemblies in Rome Roman Republic 509 BC and Athens Athenian democracy 500 BC in Germanic antiquity kingship was primarily a sacral function and the king was either directly hereditary for some tribes while for others he was elected from among eligible members of royal families by the thing such ancient parliamentarism declined during the European Middle Ages but it survived in forms of regional assemblies such as the Icelandic Commonwealth the Swiss lands combined and later tags oxen and the high medieval communal movement linked to the rise of medieval town privileges the modern resurgence of parliamentarism and Andy monarchism began with the temporary overthrow of the English monarchy by the Parliament of England in 1649 followed by the american revolution of 1776 and the French Revolution of 1789 one of many opponents of that trend was Elizabeth da barn whose anonymous dialogue between Clara Neville and Louisa Mills on loyalty 1794 features silly Louisa who admires Liberty Tom Paine and the USA who is lectured by Clara on God's approval of monarchy and on the influence women can exert on man much of 19th century politics was characterized by the division between anti-monarchist radicalism and monarchist conservativism many countries abolished the monarchy in the 20th century and became republics especially in the wake of either World War one or World War two advocacy of Republic's is called republicanism while advocacy of monarchies is called monarchism in the modern era monarchies are more prevalent in small states than in large ones topic characteristics and role monarchies are associated with political or socio-cultural hereditary rule in which monarchs rule for life although some monarchs do not hold lifetime positions for example the Yang di-pertuan Agong of Malaysia serves a five-year term and passed the responsibilities and power of the position to their child or another member of their family when they die most monarchs both historically and in the modern day have been born and brought up within a royal family the center of the royal household in court growing up in a royal family called a dynasty when it continues for several generations future monarchs are often trained for the responsibilities of expected future rule different systems of succession have been used such as proximity of blood primogeniture and agentic seniority salic law while most monarchs have been male many female monarchs also have reigned in history the term Queen regnant refers to a ruling monarch while a queen consort refers to the wife of a reigning king rule may be hereditary in practice without being considered a monarchy such as that of family dictatorship or political families in many democracies the principal advantage of hereditary monarchy is the immediate continuity of leadership as seen in the classic phrase the king is dead long live the king some monarchies are non-hereditary in an elective monarchy monarchs are elected or appointed by some body an electoral college for life or a defined period but otherwise serve as any other monarch 3 elective monarchies exist today Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates are 20th century creations while one the papacy is ancient a self-proclaimed monarchy is established when a person claims the monarchy without any historical ties to a previous dynasty there are examples of Republican leaders who have proclaimed themselves monarchs Napoleon the first of France declared himself emperor of the French and ruled the first French Empire after having held the title of first consul of the French Republic for five years following his seizure of power in the coup of 18 Brumaire the president jean baitul because of the Central African Republic declared himself emperor of the Central African Empire Yuan Shikai the first formal president of the Republic of China crowned himself emperor of the short-lived Empire of China a few years after the Republic of China was founded topic powers of the monarch in an absolute monarchy the monarch rules as an autocrat with absolute power over the state and government for example the right to rule by decree promulgate laws and impose punishments absolute monarchies are not necessarily authoritarian or totalitarian the enlightened absolutists of the Age of Enlightenment were monarchs who allowed various freedoms in a constitutional monarchy the monarch is subject to a Constitution the monarch serves as a ceremonial figurehead symbol of national unity and state continuity the monarch is nominally sovereign but the electorate through their legislature exercised usually limited political sovereignty constitutional monarchs have limited political power except in Japan and Sweden where the Constitution's grant no power to their monarchs typical monarchical powers include granting pardons granting honours and reserve powers eg to dismiss the prime minister refused to dissolve Parliament or veto legislation withhold royal assent they often also have privileges of inviolability sovereign immunity and an official residence a monarchs powers and influence may depend on tradition precedent popular opinion and law in other cases the Monarchs power is limited not due to constitutional restraints but to effective military rule in the late Roman Empire the Praetorian guards several times deposed Roman emperors and installed new Emperor's similarly in the Abbasid Caliphate the Gilman's slave soldiers deposed of caliphs once they became prominent allowing new ones to come to power the Hellenistic kings of Macedon and of Epirus were elected by the army which was similar in composition to the ecclesia of democracies the Council of all free citizens military service was often linked with citizenship among the male members of the royal house military domination of the monarch has occurred in modern Thailand and in medieval Japan where a hereditary military chief the Shogun was the de facto ruler although the Japanese Emperor nominally ruled in fascist Italy the Savoy monarchy under King Victor Emmanuel the third coexisted with the fascist single-party rule of Benito Mussolini Romania under the Iron Guard in Greece during the first months of the colonel's regime were the same way Spain under Francisco Franco was officially a monarchy although there was no monarch on the throne upon his death Franco was succeeded as head of state by the Bourbon air one Carlos the first who proceeded to make Spain a democracy with himself as a figurehead constitutional monarch topic person of Monarch most states only have a single person acting as monarch at any given time although two monarchs have ruled simultaneously in some countries a situation known as dire key historically this was the case in the ancient Greek city-state of Sparta or 17th century Russia and there are examples of joint sovereignty of spouses or relatives such as William the third and Mary the second in the kingdoms of England and Scotland other examples of joint sovereignty include czars Peter the first and Ivan the fifth of Russia and Charles the fifth Holy Roman Emperor and Joanna of Castile of the crown of Castile and Dora currently is the world's sole constitutional dire key or Co principality located in the Pyrenees between Spain and France it has two co-princes the Bishop of Argyll a prince bishop in Spain and the president of France inherited ex officio from the French Kings who themselves inherited the title from the counts of aw it is the only situation in which an independent country's co monarch is democratically elected by the citizens of another country in a personal Union separate independent states share the same person as monarch but each realm retains its separate laws in government the sixteen separate Commonwealth realms are sometimes described as being in a personal union with queen elizabeth ii as monarch however they can also be described as being in a shared monarchy a regent may rule when the monarch is a minor absent or debilitated a pretender is a claimant to an

of a deity Divine Right of Kings mandate of heaven a special connection to a deity sacred king or even purported to be divine kings or incarnations of deities themselves Imperial cult many European monarchs have been styled fidei Defensor defender of the faith some hold official positions relating to the state religion or established Church in the Western political tradition a morally based balanced monarchy is stressed as the ideal form of government and little reverence is paid to modern-day ideals of egalitarian democracy eg Saint Thomas Aquinas unapologetically declares tyranny is want to occur not less but more frequently on the basis of polyarchy ruled by many ie oligarchy or democracy than on the basis of monarchy on kingship however Thomas Aquinas also stated that the ideal monarchical system would also have at lower levels of government both an aristocracy and elements of democracy in order to create a balance of power the monarch would also be subject to both natural and divine law as well and also be subject to the church in matters of religion in Dante Alighieri s demand Archaea a spiritualize imperial catholic monarchy is strongly promoted according to a Ghibelline worldview in which the royal religion of Melchizedek is emphasized against the Sasser total claims of the rival papal ideology in Saudi Arabia the king is a head of state who has both the

not held in fact for example English claims to the French throne or titles not recognised anti-popes also after a monarchy is deposed often former monarchs and their descendants are given titles the King of Portugal was given the hereditary title Duke of Braganza topic dependent monarchies in some cases monarchs are dependent on other powers see vassals suzerainty puppet state PIGE M&E in the british colonial era indirect rule under a paramount power existed such as the princely states under the British Raj in Botswana South Africa Ghana and Uganda the ancient kingdoms and chiefdoms that were met by the colonialists when they first arrived on the continent are now constitutionally protected as regional or sectional entities furthermore in Nigeria though the dozens of sub regional polities that exist there are not provided for in the current Constitution they are nevertheless legally recognized aspects of the structure of governance that operates in the nation in addition to these five countries peculiar monarchies of varied sizes and complexities exist in various other parts of Africa topic succession topic hereditary monarchies in a hereditary monarchy the position of monarch is inherited according to a statutory or customary order of succession usually within one royal family tracing its origin through a historical dynasty or bloodline this usually means that the heir to the throne is known well in advance of becoming monarch to ensure a smooth succession primogeniture in which the eldest child of the monarch is first in line to become monarch is the most common system in hereditary monarchy the order of succession is usually affected by rules on gender historically agnatic primogeniture or patrilineal primogeniture was favored that is inheritance according to seniority of birth among the sons of a monarch or head of family with sons and their male issue inheriting before brothers and their issue and male line males inheriting before females of the male line this is the same as semi-salic primogeniture complete exclusion of females from dynastic succession as commonly referred to as application of the salic law see tara salika before primogeniture was enshrined in european law and tradition kings would often secure the succession by having their successor usually their eldest son crowned during their own lifetime so for a time there would be two kings in Kuragin see a senior king and a junior king examples include Henry the young king of England and the early direct capetians in France sometimes however primogeniture can operate through the female line in some systems a female may rule as monarch only when the male line dating back to a common ancestor is exhausted in 1980 Sweden became the first European monarchy to declare equal full cognatic primogeniture meaning that the eldest child of the monarch whether female or male ascends to the throne other kingdoms such as the netherlands in 1983 Norway in 1990 Belgium in 1991 denmark and luxembourg have since followed suit the united kingdom adopted absolute equal primogeniture on april 25th 2013 following agreement by the prime ministers of the 16 Commonwealth realms at the 22nd Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting religion can be a factor in the eligibility of a monarch for example the British monarch as head of Church of England is required to be in communion with the church although all other former rules forbidding marriage to non pristine swery Bala shhhht when equal primogeniture was adopted in 2013 in the case of the absence of children the next most senior member of the collateral line for example a younger sibling of the previous monarch becomes monarch in complex cases this can mean that there are closer blood relatives to the deceased monarch than the next in line according to primogeniture this has often led especially in Europe in the Middle Ages to conflict between the principle of primogeniture and the principle of proximity of blood other hereditary systems of succession included tennis tree which is semi elective and gives weight to merit and agentic seniority in some monarchies such as Saudi Arabia succession to the throne first passes to the Monarchs next eldest brother and only after that to the Monarchs children agentic seniority topic elective monarchies in an elective monarchy monarchs are elected or appointed by some body an electoral college for life or a defined period but otherwise serve as any other monarch there is no popular vote involved in elective monarchies as the elective body usually consists of a small number of eligible people historical examples of elective monarchy include the Holy Roman emperors chosen by prince-electors but often coming from the same dynasty and the free election of kings of the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth for example Pepin the short father of Charlemagne was elected king of the Franks by an assembly of Frankish leading men Stanislaw Auguste Pinilla toski of Poland was an elected King as was Frederick the first of Denmark Germanic peoples had elective monarchies five forms of elective monarchies exist today the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church who rules his sovereign of the Vatican city-state is elected to a life term by the College of Cardinals in the Sovereign Military Order of Malta the prince and grand master is elected for life tenure by the council complete of state from within its members in Malaysia the federal king called the Yang di-pertuan Agong or paramount ruler as elected for a five-year term from among and by the hereditary rulers mostly Sultan's of nine of the Federation's constitutive states all on the Malay Peninsula the United Arab Emirates also has a procedure for electing its monarch furthermore Andorra has a unique constitutional arrangement as one of its heads of state as the president of the French Republic in the form of a Co Prince this is the only instance in the world where the monarch of a state is elected by the citizens of a different country appointment by the current monarch is another system used in Jordan it also was used in Imperial Russia however it was changed to semi-salic soon because the instability of the appointment system resulted in an age of palace revolutions in this system the monarch chooses the successor who is always his relative topic current monarchies currently there are 44 nations in the world with a monarch as head of state they fall roughly into the following categories Commonwealth realms queen elizabeth ii as the monarch of 16 Commonwealth realms Antigua and Barbuda the Commonwealth of Australia the Commonwealth of the Bahamas Barbados Police Canada Grenada Jamaica New Zealand the independent state of Papua New Guinea the Federation of st. Christopher and Nevis Saint Lucia Saint Vincent and the Grenadines the Solomon Islands Tuvalu in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland they have evolved out of the British Empire into fully independent states within the Commonwealth of Nations that retain the Queen as head of state unlike other Commonwealth countries that are either dependencies Republic's or have a different royal house all 16 realms are constitutional monarchies and full democracies where the Queen has limited powers or a largely ceremonial role the Queen is head of the established Church of England in the United Kingdom while the other 15 realms do not have an established church other European constitutional monarchies the principality of andorra the kingdom of Belgium the Kingdom of Denmark the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg the kingdom of the Netherlands the kingdom of Norway the kingdom of Spain and the kingdom of Sweden are fully democratic states in which the monarch has a limited or largely ceremonial role there is generally a Christian religion established as the official church in each of these countries this is the Lutheran form of Protestantism in Norway Sweden and Denmark while Belgium and Andorra are Roman Catholic countries Spain and the Netherlands have no official state religion Luxembourg which is very predominantly Roman Catholic has five so-called officially recognized cults of national importance Roman Catholicism Protestantism Greek orthodoxy Judaism and Islam a status which gives to those religions some privileges like the payment of a state salary to their priests and ora is unique among all existing monarchies as it is by definition a dire key with the co printer france and the bishop of urgell this situation based on historic precedents has created a peculiar situation among monarchies as of both co-princes are not of Andorran descent b1 is elected by common citizens of a foreign country France but not by an dorrance as they cannot vote in the French presidential elections see the other the bishop of urgell is appointed by a foreign head of state the Pope European constitutional absolute monarchies Liechtenstein and Monaco are constitutional monarchies in which the Prince theoretically retains many powers of an absolute monarch in reality he is a figurehead who is expected not to use that power for example the 2003 Constitution referendum which gives the Prince of Liechtenstein the power to veto any law that the Landtag Parliament proposes and the Landtag can veto any law that the Prince tries to pass the prince can hire or dismiss any elective member or government employee from his or her post however what makes him not an absolute monarch is that the people can call for a referendum to end the monarchies rain when Crown Prince alloys threatened to veto a referendum to legalize abortion in 2011 which didn't actually happen voters were surprised because the Prince hasn't vetoed any law for over three decades the Prince of Monaco has simpler powers but cannot hire or dismiss any elective member or government employee from his or her post but he can elect the minister of state government council and judges both albert ii and hans-adam two are theoretically very powerful but in practice even they have very limited power compared to the Islamic monarchs see below they also own huge tracts of land and are shareholders in many companies Islamic monarchies these Islamic monarchs of the Kingdom of Bahrain the Brunei Darussalam the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan the state of Kuwait Malaysia the Kingdom of Morocco the Sultanate of Oman the state of Qatar the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates generally retained far more powers than their European or Commonwealth counterparts the nation of brunei the abode of peace the sultanate of oman the state of qatar and the kingdom of saudi arabia remain absolute monarchies the Kingdom of Bahrain the State of Kuwait and United Arab Emirates are classified as mixed meaning there are representative bodies of some kind but the monarch retains most of his powers the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan Malay and the Kingdom of Morocco are constitutional monarchies but their monarchs still retain more substantial powers than European equivalents East and Southeast Asian constitutional monarchies the kingdom of Bhutan the kingdom of Cambodia Japan the Kingdom of Thailand have constitutional monarchies where the monarch has a limited or ceremonial role the kingdom of Bhutan Japan and the Kingdom of Thailand are countries that were never colonized by European powers but Japan and the Kingdom of Thailand have changed from traditional absolute monarchies into constitutional ones during the 20th century while the kingdom of Bhutan changed in 2008 the kingdom of Cambodia had its own monarchy after independence from the French colonial empire which was deposed after the Khmer Rouge came into power in the subsequent invasion by the Socialist Republic of Vietnam the monarchy was subsequently restored in the peace agreement of 1993 other monarchies five monarchies do not fit into one of the above groups by virtue of geography or class of monarchy the Kingdom of Tonga in Polynesia the Kingdom of Swaziland and the kingdom of Lesotho in Africa the Vatican city-state the Sovereign Military Order of Malta in Europe of these the kingdom of Lesotho and the Kingdom of Tonga are constitutional monarchies while the Kingdom of Swaziland and the Vatican city-state are absolute monarchies the Kingdom of Swaziland is also unique among these monarchies often being considered a dire key the king or in Guayama rules alongside his mother the nd lo vacati has dual heads of state originally designed to be checks on political power the in Glen Yama however is considered the administrative head of state while the envelope okati is considered the spiritual and national head of state a position which more or less has become symbolic in recent years the Pope is the absolute monarch of the vatican city state different entity from the Holy See by virtue of his position as head of the Roman Catholic Church and Bishop of Rome he is an elected rather than hereditary ruler and does not have to be a citizen of the territory prior to his election by the Cardinals the ruling Kim family in North Korea Kim Il Sung Kim jong-il and

XvcNLLd7qTs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvcNLLd7qTs | LIBRA, Don't let MISUNDERSTANDINGS creep in, INDECISION will cost you... | SUN, MOON, RISING | hi welcome to your reading sweet yeah welcome to your reading and what are you defending yourself against you are defending yourself against something I guess there's some sort of a separation some separation has happened and you are defending yourself you are standing your ground something new something passionate you want to start like a single life you want to have a single right for something and you feel very attractive very driven very focused very bold oriented you are working on your finances starting something new or going through going under a transformation investing some of you are investing in a Scorpio person sun moon rising or some of you are the velocity of money in going through some [Music] excuse me about the canines [Music] you are going through some transformation with regards to money situation mother of Pentacles here so I am getting that some of you are dealing with a earth sign Taurus were kept upon and going through some transformation with regards to something related to family life or just finances like focusing on what do you value in your life what do you want in your life what sort of things you want yourself to be surrounded by and how you want to take care of your surrounding AM yourself so let's see and what are the messages you feel that okay so some of you are definitely going through a transformation because I saw this card a couple of times and I have been mentioning about the card that you are going through some transformation something has ended where you felt that you were dealing or either you are dealing with a Leo Sagittarius or a it is or someone like you are wearing this new personality which is very fiery and you are out there doing your thing pursuing your dreams and desires so that is what I am getting here give me more information with regards to you the ending of me beginning - what are the messages coming in for Libra Sun moon rising now I know this reading is very late so finally excuse me for that bottom of the deck is me Justice card which is the Libra card so some of your dealing with karmic issues or for the shoes things are although in balance so don't feel that and don't think that things are going against you know they are happening the way they are supposed to happen like I said your earth sign or you are just too much focus on your money issues like I said you are working Oh at your work is work very very focused and you are trying to get results at workplace you want returns like you want luck to favor you you want you want posture to be in your favour and I think it is you are trying to balance and juggle two things you are trying to maintain the balance some of you are trying to work it out with a lover who is a either a Gemini or a or someone who is just not like you feel that you you are emotionally unfulfilled or this person is an optimally unfulfilled and you want to make it work with this person three of Pentacles and you have to make a choice if you want to carry forward with this person or not because there can be a chance that this person is has a third party okay third party can be a family or a walk anything can be a third party which is obstructing your relationship so let's see well part of the matter is the aid of that once was crossing us eight of swords with the hangman the mother of cups for swords the high priestess nine of swords two of cups two of Wands two swords but among the like the son of ones what I'm getting here is that you are trying to make passionate the connection with someone who is living far from you this person is not like either you are not yeah both of you are starting something new and you have had a like you both had it like you both ended a cycle and you are beginning a new cycle and you are trying to balance things out also either you are not mature or this person or both of you are not mature for this meter like this relationship itself I feel is not mature enough right now you have some feelings and this person also have some feelings and then some passion is there now with this eight of Wands I'm getting that either you guys live far away or this person is not going to in touch with you right now I'm also getting your obstacle is a dove eight of swords which is saying that you are feeling stuck you feel that there is no growth there is no moving forward you also think that you are stuck in this cycle without and you find do anything the thing is that you're so stuck that are you have major arcana the hangman both of these cards are topical how you feel that you cannot help the situation you cannot do anything to to change the situation so you have to sacrifice the situation you have to move within you need to concentrate on yourself you have to withdraw from the situation is what I'm getting here you can be dealing with a Pisces person as well in past you found someone who was very selfless caring and this can be Pisces cancer scorpio sun moon rising this is a person who is that you are very giving towards this person or this person was very supportive and loving towards you they had lot to offer you first calming you is the core of sorts so right now you are trying to heal yourself you are trying to take rest you are trying to go inside and work on yourself you are meditating as well in future you are dealing with the Pisces personal you're dealing with someone who is a mysterious person this person has lot of knowledge or this is you who is getting lot of knowledge some spiritual insights you can be consulting someone who is a spiritual teacher or guru in future and you are being asked to trust your intuition in the future because your intuition is going to be really strong in future so make decisions based on your intuition if you feel something is good then it's good for you if it's not you are not feeling when it's not probably right now you are up to late at night just thinking about the situation over and over again and it's not going to help because whatever that you are putting your energy your mind and don't that is going to manifest so if you are thinking back thoughts or if you are having trouble thoughts if you are going to keep thinking about it over and over again you are going to get stuck and you won't be able to oh look in fact you will have bad things coming your way because you have been thinking about these things and then you will manifest these things in your surrounding there is someone loving by the way and I don't know who this person is but you have feelings for this person and this person also has feelings for you but for some reason both of you're feeling stuck or you are feeling stuck and you don't know what to do and that is why you have a choice to make which path to take how to proceed so you are thinking about it in you hope that a new path will open and the outcome is that you have you're indecisive so which is a typical of yoga you are indecisive you are not able to decide you are not sure what to do what is right what is wrong and that is not of duality in the last three cars that I am getting here like 2 upon 2 of sorts in 2 of cuffs so there is definitely a choice that you have to make I was also getting two of Pentacles somewhere yes look you're trying to balance something out you are trying to understand emotions you are trying to balance something so I think this is something of the beginning that is just beginning so you are not sure how about it but I think you need to trust your instincts and it will lead you to whatever you want to whatever whatever you are thinking you need to make the decision about now what is this hanging about what why is Libra feeling stuck why you give up even stuff you got sun moon rising may tend to join beginning okay you are feeling stuck about the situation because you feel you are being deceived but you are not you're feeling steps because you feel you want a family but you feel you can't have a family with this person for you a feeling like that but I don't think that is the case that's not true and I'm also believe Newfield hangman is being clarified by hangman you feel that you are stuck but you are actually not stuck you just feel that you are stuck like you have put yourself elaborately in that position death card you feel something has ended but I don't think that's the case things things can still be renewed what is this obsessive thinking that you guys I'm realizing what is this obsessive thinking day and night what is this yes we are thinking about this person whom you play is your lover you were healing with this person where you are healing with this person because lovers and detective of cups again and you have to move cups again come up twice in the surrounding also there is two of cups and then you again have two of cups as coming up as you so you're worried about this whole made connection that you have that someone and you are healing you want to hear yourself or you should hear yourself before you you are also making a decision if you want to continue in this person it can be a Gemini person you have passion for this relationship what is this high priestess but I think you are still not even sure about this relationship like you some day you feel passionate and some days you don't that sort of feeling I am getting what is this hibiscus energy you want to offer somebody something in the future I feel that you want to offer somebody your time in energy you want to offer them flowers I also feel you want to move forward with this person in future it can be with a Pisces or a cancer person because you have aligned your emotions and yes you want to you feel that this person is your soul mate definitely this person completes you and because we were feeling stuck I think you are still feeling stuck in future but I used to want to move forward because you know once you will start stepping forward things will clear like make more sense so you are aligning your emotions and mind and you want to move forward you feel that if you will extend your love or if you will ask for commitment you are waiting for this person to open up I guess so do you fear that they will have you will have ego battles with this person or this like it was really too bitter fighting what is this - of sorts in the outcome what is this position that Levi's making by the end of this month start in June what is the decision that they are making okay so this facility's taking you a lot of effort a lot of anxiety a lot of you are searching for emotions you are also trying to stand your ground or you can be dealing with the pie things like I said because the prices are cancer you are getting Sagittarius and Aries as well sun moon rising I am creating that you want to take charge of the situation or you should take charge of the situation and also try to keep a balance because it's divinely guided you have to express emotion so you are finding it hard to express your emotions and you have to make a decision regarding that how to express should like this road I not Express and it is keeping you up at night and there is some confusion with regards to emotions later hiding your emotions what is this [Music] you are healing from the may trail that you felt you felt that someone came into your life and left so you want to isolate yourself you want to just be by yourself and you are healing yourself currently you want to take your own time to approach or come out what is this a dove once you want to communicate with this person whoever it is this person can be in a long distance and you are confused about the situation like you are not sure how to make this decision what to trust and what not to trust you want a commitment with this person it can be with the Taurus you want to have a family with this person you want something steady something like a commitment which is passionate as well it comes with a Leo Sagittarius Aries Sun moon rising what is this two of cups in the surrounding for you plus onion rising yes this person is you dream come true this person you need to give them a second chance so you want to give them a second chance it means the trial you will go to the strength you can also be dealing with Aquarius or a you you are you want to be patient you wish this person was patient or you wish this person didn't clean you because I think this person is leaving if you don't take action really quick yes this person is probably gonna leave if you don't get our action quickly and you're very scared so which is fine I think you should take your time just communicate to this person that you are taking your time don't leave them hanging because it can make them nervous and then they might feel that you don't have interests in yen and that's how it goes misunderstandings so yes now let's have what are the dockage is for liberal Sun rising for end of May beginning of June guys you will have to wait for me I think guests sorry about that so yes let's see what are your blockages because I'm realizing impatiens somebody here is losing their patience I think it's your partner the colors I saw in your external life so they had seven of Pentacles impatience I think they are losing their patience and you need to trust your instincts you have got stains or you are losing their you are losing your patience with this person probably mysticism and forgiveness perfection I think you are looking for something perfect and nothing like that exists so you want things to be perfect and you want them a certain way but that doesn't happen and you are seeking guidance so mysticism is what I am getting here you are depending too much on mysticism like you're watching too much Tarot video list to make choices that is not good I'm getting that so don't do that make your own choices from your own strengths from your own heart space don't don't fall in this trap of tarot card and making a decision according to what other people say forgiveness you need to forgive this situation or this person or just yourself in the situation and forget quickly guys because sometimes people take million years to forgive and that doesn't serve any purpose there is there is no benefit to it like it's like you should forgive not when it's like when it's useless when your forgiveness is useless then if there is no point of forgiveness so you should forgive I'm uh saying you should forget but you should grind the forgive a the forgiveness to the person if they are apologizing don't make then like no okay I think I'm getting for cellular I think don't keep the person hanging so one should be quick to forgive and in like if you don't want to entertain that behavior in a person where this person comes in for gifts like you know ask for forgiveness and you forgive them and then they keep doing it the same stuff again and again then that's a different story still you need to forgive them and not take them back in your life but still forgive because they are asking for forgiveness and you are not God you're not God you should can forgive your sister human being and you can forgive another human being who is asking for forgiveness and that's what people should do I believe and even though it will take some time for you to heal from the situation and you can let this person know listen I have forgiven you but I'm gonna take my time to heal myself from the damage that you have done to me so that is a different thing by the way it my top says you're part of the women and I really love the stop and so that was your reading Libra I hope you enjoy it I'm not sure if I'm going to post the June videos bye I'll see what I can do maybe I'll be posting random videos so hope to see you then and take care | MERAKI — THE TAROT

Today, Dr. Curry will share vision for the future of OER and history that has shaped the vision. Welcome, Dr. Curry. >>: Thank you very much. I'm excited to be here today to have the opportunity to talk about what we are in the work we are doing at Compton College. I'm excited to share some thoughts with you, and also take questions and answers as well. I just want to give you more about me and who I am and this love story that I have with Compton College. I was born and raised in Compton, California. Our relationship with Compton College dates back to fall 1999, when I was working at the University of California Irvine is the program coordinator with the academic outreach program. We have events in 1999 accompanied by the school district. We had a lot of parents that day and the provided open remarks. I believe every student is a success story. When I was 12, I was a ballboy for the football team. I have history at this institution. I grew up one block away from the college where I could be there in about five minutes if I hop the gates or Greenleaf to get into the campus. One thing that's interesting about the college is June 7, Compton College was the first community college in California where (Indiscernible) and we entered into partnership with El Camino committee College to provide academic and student services at the Compton site. We started at the center in the fall of 2016. We achieved accreditation on June 7, 2017. We held the first commencement ceremony on June 7, 2018. Our partnership with El Camino College completed on June 7, 2019. I put that out there is June 7 the significant date for come to college. It tells you anything is possible. We start thinking about open education resources and the college is moving forward, we can no longer think it's not possible. Anything is possible when the college is revoked and fully accredited and that tells you anything is possible. The work at Compton College is based off the work of the faculty, staff and administration in order to get this thing done. I'm also part of a group that works with -- group but Pam and myself, Tim is -- and is called equity Avengers where we do equity minded presentations for administrators and also double into work with faculty, staff in the future. We have weekly Twitter show called equity chat and follow me when you can see the conversation. It's ways to have conversation about student success and issues in higher education and opportunity in space | Cal OER | UCfjv_3A5XwX5kt9mGe-LD2w | 2021-08-07 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | detection | en | 804 | 5,327 |
0A6Ty4plghM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A6Ty4plghM | Top Key Points To Prepping For New Preppers: Is there anything off-limits? | welcome back once again and it is friday we made it through another week folks we conquered another week as under the belt all right so grab a cold beer and uh sit back and relax you know you earned [Music] you know welcome to survival preparedness for beginners and i'd like to thank everybody out there that's been watching my videos that has subscribed to my channel now let's talk a little bit about some of the stuff that is going on out there in this world right now okay we all know about all these different things that have happened there's all these theories going on we also all know about you know the charlie victor 19 how that's going up everything else that is one of the main reasons why you should be prepping okay you want to make sure that you're doing everything possible to be prepared to be ready to make sure that you don't get caught with your pants down and you don't have anything for your family to eat or you don't have medicine for there's so much that you have control over that you have to make sure that you're taken in consideration that you're the one that is responsible for your family now in some families the man preps like in my family i do all the prepping okay and other families the woman preps so it's a it's a 50 50 give you know i mean you know there's a lot of women out there that do the prepping and everything else they may be doing canning you know if you have a homestead or something like that you know the man goes out and he harvestes all the food stuff he brings it in well you got to start getting that stuff processed and can you know i mean there's a lot of work that's involved i remember that's how my my grandfather and grandmother were you know my grandpa did all the work out in the garden and everything else and was to come time to harvest grandma was busy inside can and everything because he just kept bringing stuff in you know and you know it's got to get done you know it's the same way as you got to make sure that you're planned and you're ready you have a playbook to go by all right i've talked about having a notepad or a journal or something where you can keep notes and you can keep track of things and everything else makes your life so much easier it really does in the long run you know it really makes it so much easier when you have some way to track all this stuff that you do already have so that you know when you have enough but then again you know everybody asks you know well what's enough it's whatever you want to do it's ever you know how much room you have to store this stuff to store food in water and everything else water is a big one because it takes up a lot of room so that's probably one of your your toughest things as a prepper to store you know especially like if you live in an apartment building or if you live in a small you know house or you don't have a lot of land and you know storing water is probably one of your number one most space taking preps that you're going to do you know you can have five gallon buckets and you can take and do all types of your dry goods and everything else and put them in marlar bags vacuum seal them however you want to do it and put it inside your your five gallon buckets but the good thing with that is is they stack so if you had a spare room you know a spare closet you could stack and up them in there you can throw a sheet over if you don't want somebody to see it or whatever else and you're done with it that's basically what i did so you know there's a lot of different things that you need to really be paying attention to and staying on track the biggest thing that i'm preaching here is i want you to stay on track i don't want people to fall on the wayside with everything that's going on in the world around us all right you have to make sure you stay focused all right basically what you need to do is pretend you're a horse all right now they put blinders on horses when they have them out in the fields or they're you know if they're moving them around or something they don't want them to get startled so they'll put blinders on the horse so the horse only sees what is in front of it all right pretend that you have blinders on and make sure that you are concentrating and you're putting your time and effort into being prepared for whatever may come your way because in the end you have to make sure that you're prepared you have to make sure you have your preps done now i sound like i'm preaching like a broken record here i just keep skipping right back to the same thing but it is very important that everybody out there understand the importance of being prepared because you never know in a moment's notice what could happen you could have an earthquake you could have fires you could have a flood you could have a hurricane um we already got a pandemic what else you know there could be so unrest in your area i don't know where everybody lives you know you could have civil unrest you could have people looting you could have you know where you don't want to go out and you don't want to do anything all right you want to stay out of the mainstream you don't want to go out there you don't want to you know nothing to do with it you know you don't want to get involved and you don't want to put yourself into a position where it could turn out very bad really quick you want to make sure that you have a plan a plan is the most important thing i think that anybody can do for an emergency situation you have a plan you have an evacuation route if you have to leave you know where you're going to go you make sure that you have more than one way to get there you make sure that other people know which routes you're going on especially your family members if say you're going to your parents house or you're going to your grandparents house your brother your sister's house whoever you're going to see to stay with to get out of harm's way make sure that they know exactly what your plan is and how you're going to go that route you know i'm saying make sure that you always have more than one route you know a lot of people say you know make sure you have two routes i say you have three routes all right you have your most direct route you have your route that's kind of out of the way a little bit maybe get you out of some of the traffic or whatever and then you have the last route is like your back roads and all that kind of stuff you may be driving on dirt you know whatever but you can get from point a to point b might just take you a little bit longer so making sure that you have a plan in place is crucial to any prepper out there as far as i'm concerned now there's a lot of people that don't really talk about having plans and everything else and that's fine you know it's all in what you think that you need if you think you have it all up here then hey great you know but as you get older you're not gonna remember everything so to make sure that you have a planned out say if you have to leave your home and it's an evacuation type deal what you need what you have to make sure that you have with you you know this way you can check it off as you load it into your vehicles and then you can get the hell out of dodge and then you have everything that you need you know when you if you try to remember stuff when the emergency hits and you have very little time to get out of the situation you're going to forget stuff and more than likely you'll forget some of the most important things you don't want to do that so this way here make sure you have a plan make sure that you have like i said before get yourself a notebook a journal something where you can have it written out exactly what you need if you have to leave if you're staying in your home then you know you can have a different plan for that you know this is what i have in my home this is how long i anticipate that what i have will last me you can kind of figure that out you know you can sit down and you can do portions and everything else and yes it will take time but once you figure out the portions of say a can of green beans if you say you know corn whatever else it's pretty simple to figure out okay there's two servings in this can you know so say you have four people in your home so you're gonna need two cans see what i'm saying so you'll be able to figure out exactly how long what you have will last by the servings on the back of whatever it is that you are buying and putting into your stockpile it's very simple so i just wanted to bring a quick video on friday it's friday everybody loves fridays unless of course today is your monday in which case i'm sorry but stay focused people keep your eye on the ball make sure you have a plan make sure you write it down it's very important it's very important to have a plan especially to all your new preppers out there a plan is key to survival and a quick emergency situation you're not running around you know exactly what you got to do you know exactly what you gotta pack you know exactly what has to go on the car if you're leaving your area and you know exactly how you're going to get to where you're going at least you have three different routes to get there so survival preparedness for beginners i try to make sure that everybody out there stays informed i try to keep everybody's eyes on the ball because i care about everybody out there watching these videos i do appreciate everybody that watches my videos thank you for hitting the give me a thumbs up hit subscribe hit that little bell and until next time i'll catch you all on the flip side

cvXrceHl1II | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvXrceHl1II | Illegal and Illegitimate: Examining the Myanmar Military's Claim as the Government of Myanmar (IDEA) | hello everyone and welcome well warm welcome to this event co-hosted by International idea and the UN special repertoire on the situation of human rights in Myanmar I am Annika Silva Leander head of North America international idea and Deputy permanent Observer of international idea to the United Nations and I have the honor to moderate today's session before we start I would like to remind those that are in the room that the event is being live streamed and recorded event is part of a series on Myanmar organized by the office of permanent representation of international idea to the United Nations here in New York together with our member states during this session we have the honor to have Tom Andrews here to my left the um special rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Myanmar who will present the latest conference room paper which examines the myanmar's military's illegal and illegitimate claim to be the government of Myanmar and the international response to this the paper is published on the eve of the second anniversary of the military coup in Myanmar and contributes to satellites on the appalling human rights situation in the country two years after the illegal takeover of the military as you all know Myanmar has been experiencing unprecedented upheaval since the crew amid spiraling violence Mass displacement and widespread arrests and killings of civilians the military's attack on the people of Myanmar has also led to an economic and humanitarian disaster displacing over one million people since the coup and Myanmar has experienced one of the worst economic contractions in the world I'm doing merely a decade of progress on poverty reduction merely half of the population in Myanmar now live below the poverty line the Myanmar military Junta continues to try to seek legitimacy internationally by trying to persuade member states of the United Nations to endorse and accept its illegitimate elections that are planned for August this year so Tom Andrews the U.N special repertoire will discuss the duties attempts to gain legitimacy member states responses to the Genta and the U.N special reporters recommendations for finding solutions to this crisis as you may know the national unity consultative councils and nucc a body created to bring together pro-democracy forces in the country is also at the same time seeking to rebuild the Constitutional framework for future Democratic and federal Myanmar and adopted a federal democracy Charter in January 22 that lays out a road map towards a new Federal Constitution to replace the 2008 ones so to contribute to the international community's understanding of the centrality of elections in both the military strategy and a future Federal pop chosen by Democratic forces the international ideas head of the Myanmar program Marcus brand will also present a new policy paper by International idea which outlines key areas to consider for genuine Democratic elections in the emerging new constitutional context once the presentations have been made we will open the floor through q a so let me start by giving the floor to the Canadian ambassador to the United Nations Ambassador Bob Ray here to my right who also tears the U.N group of friends on Myanmar for some introductory remarks the floor is yours ambassador thank you very much thank you very much for the chance to be with you today um it's I want to thank idea and to you and Silva and to my friend Marcus brand who's special rapporteur Tom Andrews uh who I've had the pleasure of working with for some time now I'd like to thank all of you for coming and for bringing us together uh to share these very important pieces of research but but also analysis of what is taking place in the country and the implications for a democratic and federal future for uh for Myanmar uh naturally as we would expect from idea that timing is impeccable here we are uh two years one day away from commemorating the second year anniversary of the coup and it's important for us to recognize that the coup has plunged the country into a level of violence and humanitarian need has been documented by Annika Silva in her statement this morning that the country has not seen for many many years uh as the papers note it also marks an important date in the tools the Junta has used to seize control and they will also need to finally show their hand about whether they plan to call an election in the middle of a situation that can only be described as a civil war or if they're going to extend the state of emergency and their dictatorship the papers to be discussed here are very important guiding documents for all of us in the International Community that will allow us to chart our way through through really challenging times for the people of Myanmar and challenging times for all of us who believe in democracy and if I may say so as a Canadian who really appreciate the benefits of federal structures which are key to have been key to our existence as a country and I think our key to the to the future of Myanmar we've been very impressed at the extensive level of detail on the report the sanctions that you have outlined among some like-minded countries are indeed one of the most important Believers as you note in paragraph 200 Tom Canada was in fact the first country to sanction key arms Brokers and jet fuel suppliers to the military so for that for that and many other reasons I can also share that earlier today my government announced together with like-minded Partners a new round of sanctions that are targeting key armed suppliers to the junta we have to recognize that we we can't we are not able to effectively deal with those who are currently supplying arms but we do feel it's important for us to make every possible connection to those countries and companies that are engaging directly in the military support of the junta we're also going to be watching very closely what the military regime says and does in the next few days as we are troubled as many of you are with the language that has been used around elections to date We Stand by the people of Myanmar and their aspirations for a democratic Federal peaceful Myanmar but we have we're also concerned that to hold an election in this context when the country is at war with itself when people are being repressed are being tortured are being sent to jail and are being killed that this is not the climate and the framework in which anyone can talk about an uh a reasonable election being being held and I think we have to understand that so we look forward to hearing views that are going to be expressed by all of you and we think it's extremely important that we continue this very active discussion and Dialogue on this question I also note the clear call in the document for a deeper engagement with the nug from our end Canada recently adopted an enhanced engagement approach in Myanmar that will enable government engagement with a wider range of stakeholders that of course includes the nug part of that engagement from our perspective will be insisting on the engagement of myanmar's many ethnic communities and to ensure that the rohingya are meaningfully included in the plans for the nug including preparing the ground for their dignified return to rakhan state while some may argue that the world has forgotten the range of people or the broader conflict in Myanmar I can assure you that this is not the case in addition to the sanctions regime I've just mentioned Canada working with the Netherlands is pursuing accountability efforts at the icj we have greatly constrained our engagement with the Junta and have passed a second phase of strategy to respond to the rohingya and the Myanmar crisis here in New York New ground was broken just over a month ago thanks to the Persistence of the UK on the security Council there is now a security Council resolution on Myanmar for the first time ever lastly 2023 will have its challenges as we all know the humanitarian crisis is extremely serious and shows no signs of improving or getting any better we see the risks of an election that can only be called illegitimate given the circumstances under which it is being proposed but at the same time we also have to understand there are opportunities and we have to take advantage of them as the security Council resolution stated once again asean leadership will be key to restoring calm in Myanmar and we are hopeful that under Indonesia's leadership in this year we can make further progress the resolution also expressed its full support for U.N special Envoy noeline Eiser whose statement last night is reflective of the passion that we all bring to this issue I'm very much looking forward to not only this discussion but as has been pointed out future discussions I congratulate idea for playing such a strong role in bringing us together on behalf of the friends of Myanmar I want to make it clear that together with my colleague the Ambassador who's with us today we are going to continue to work hard to bring people together and to continue to focus on this critical issue uh here at the United Nations and elsewhere but the value of guidance that you could all give us the ideas and the commitment that you share with us will really help us to keep this issue in the Forefront but also to persuade others to become more active in joining us which I think is a critical part of our efforts here I have to say on a personal note um it's a seven years since my first visit to Myanmar um it's been five years since I was appointed a special Envoy on the rohingya crisis I've had the benefit to be able to visit the country on many different occasions and to see people in the most difficult of circumstances and both in Myanmar and in Bangladesh and Cox's Bazaar it has been a a an extraordinary voyage for me because it is allowed me to really see firsthand not only the nature of Oppression and cruelty but also the nature of resilience and I think we all have to reflect on the fact that we have both in full measure when we look at the nature of the crisis in Myanmar and so to all of the courageous people in Myanmar who are putting their lives on the line to those who have already made the ultimate sacrifice into their families I think we owe it to them to continue on this journey towards democracy and peace and Justice in Myanmar and in the region thank you for that opportunity so much Ambassador Ray for your thoughts full words and for telling us about the renewed sanctions they are welcome also for reminding us about the plight of the rohingya which should not be forgotten in this context um and and for your continued and unwavering commitment to democracy in Myanmar so let us now turn to Tom Andrews un special repertoire on the situation of human rights in Myanmar for the presentation of the key findings of the conference paper over to you Tom thank you thank you very much I want to thank Bob Ray for his his presence his eloquence uh Bob is a true champion of Human Rights uh and of the people of Myanmar uh and it's a great honor to have him with us uh today I also want to thank International idea Annika for moderating and Marcus for for sharing the stage um this is a wonderful uh in a very important way uh to mark this this second anniversary and also honored to have Ambassador cha motun uh with us sharing the stage as well uh and certainly to all of you uh for being here to examine uh this most recent uh paper uh that we have put forward to the United Nations on the situation of human rights in uh in Myanmar uh this is of course a somber occasion we are on the eve of the second anniversary of the military coup in Myanmar uh and indeed I believe it is also uh the second anniversary of the failure of we as an International Community uh to respond uh effectively and responsibly to this this crisis so I think it's critically important uh for us to stop and examine uh what we have done and have not done over the course of the last uh two years uh to determine what it is that we can and should be doing with the people of Myanmar uh in the days and weeks uh and months to come it is a pivotal year in my in my view uh for Myanmar and it's critically important that we learn the lessons of the past two years and apply those lessons moving forward as an international uh Community as I've said in the past there are at least three core things that the hunter needs to sustain itself it needs money it needs weapons and it needs legitimacy uh last year I submitted a conference room paper to the U.N that focused on uh weapons it was called enabling atrocities UN member states arms transfers to the Myanmar military it examined the way in which U.N member states either directly or indirectly arm the hunter with weapons that they are using uh to kill uh innocent uh men women uh and children uh today we are releasing um the next in our conference room uh conference room paper series on the question of legitimacy uh illegal and illegitimate examining the Myanmar military's claim as the government of Myanmar and the international response so I want to examine and go over with you uh if you will the highlights or lowlights of this question of legitimacy not only from the perspective of uh the legitimate itself uh both in terms of the standards that were set by the hunter itself its own standards of legitimacy but then also the standards of the International Community this the the standards in which we uh as a uh International Community recognize or not the legitimate legitimacy of member states and then I want to examine the role that member states are playing with respect to legitimacy and how we either intentionally or inadvertently uh extend the veneer of legitimacy on the hunter who in turn uses that uh to as a propaganda weapon uh uh at at home to make it appear to the people of Myanmar that their rule uh is inevitable and that opposition to that rule is feudal so it's extremely important that we as an International Community understand the extraordinarily important role that we play in either recognizing the legitimacy or the illegitimacy of the military Hunter and that's what this uh this paper is is all about um I want to look now at uh the standards of legitimacy the standards that are used to determine whether or not the claim that the that the uh Hunter is making uh that the coup that it that it engaged in uh was in fact uh uh legitimate that it was constitutional by virtue of its own uh standards I examined three primary factors or or tests in addition to the domestic constitu a constitutional uh question to International legitimacy and there's three questions that are asked uh in in the International Community do they have effective control number one number two do they have Democratic and constitutional legitimacy and number three are they the legitimate representative of the people let's start with constitutional legitimacy because it is the very foundation on which men online uh bases uh their case for legitimacy constitutional legitimacy suggests that recognition should only be granted when a government comes to power in accordance with the established rules set out in its state constitution indeed the sac has consistently or the state administrative Council has consistently repeated some version of the following and I quote the legitimacy of the state administrative council is unquestionable as it was formed in accordance with the state constitution fact is the military failed to follow the 2008 Constitution by unconstitutionally removing president win mint and appointing the unelected military-appointed vice president as the acting president of the country under article 417 of a constitution that the military itself drafted only the president of Myanmar can declare a state of emergency and they may and he may do so only after coordinating with the National Defense and Security Council and only after informing the union Parliament none of these three requirements were met on February 1st of 2021 the day of the coup two Military Officers entered the president's residence and told him to resign the presidency why because he was informed of your quote ill health unquote uh despite the officer's threat uh to him to resign because of his ill health he said in fact he was in excellent health and that he would rather die than comply with the officer's orders so the military detained him and appointed their own acting president under the Constitution only the union Parliament can initiate impeachment procedures for the removal of the president and can ultimately decide whether impeachment charges are substantiated impeachment proceedings were of course Never convened by the parliament because the parliament was never allowed to sit I go into additional details of this point in my report but suffice it to say that the military did not follow procedures its own procedures in the removal of the president of Myanmar the sack further claimed that the actions of the legally appointed election officials and the duly elected Parliament I mean the actual duly elected Parliament would and I quote may cause the loss of sovereignty to Myanmar may cause the loss of sovereignty Why by refusing to further investigate the military's unfounded claims of voter fraud this is both groundless and absurd now election observers from The Carter Center in examining this question of irregularities along with others uh the union Election Commission who examined the claims of uh problems with the election uh They concluded that throughout the country people were by and large uh the election did indeed reflect the will of the people of Myanmar so the military toppled a democratically elected government in an unconstitutional coup and therefore lacks Democratic and constitutional legitimate let there be no mistake in the two years since the coup the sack despite its unrelenting violence has failed to gain effective control of the country and struggles to carry out even the most basic functions of what we'd expect a government to fulfill the sacks should not under any circumstances be engaged as the rightful government of Myanmar now let's look at the legitimacy the Democratic legitimacy standard the the sack can make no claim to democratic legitimacy or in other words representing the will of the people as expressed through elections the Hunter's leader mean online uh has never run for public office and the military's proxy party the usdp won only 33 out of 476 contested seats the sack has been given no Authority in other words by the people of Myanmar as expressed through elections to govern the country in at least 12 or so years in the last 12 or so years states have begun a practice of recognizing opposition groups as legitimate representatives of the people examining the climate within a country examining the factors and actually recognizing opposition groups as legitimate Representatives um we saw this in a in a variety of instances but what we see that was used as the criteria for such recognition uh are four things one the incumbent government must have lost legitimacy and I think that is very clear number two the opposition group must be representative number three it must be Broad and number four it must enjoy a reasonable Prospect of permanent the sac has none of these the incumbent nld-led government that it overthrew did not lose legitimacies in the eyes of the people indeed the nld government had a stronger mandate to lead following the 2020 election than it did after the 2015 election the sack is not brought it's not inclusive nor is it representative of the people of Myanmar its primary goal is to perpetuate the military's place as the single most dominant institution in the country and to entrench an ethnic Burman Supremacy enshwined with conservative Buddhism so let's look at the question of effective control the effective control standard this standard stipulates that recognition should be provided when a hopeful government can demonstrate control of all or nearly all the state's territory the habitual Obedience of the mass of the population and a reasonable Prospect of permanence those three those three factors well let's examine each and turn territorial control the sac lacks control over most of the territory of Myanmar or the Monopoly over the use of force and the ability to administer indeed PDFs many acting under nug control and Eros ethnic resistance organizations are effectively challenging the Myanmar military and expanding their base of control today the sac has substantially less control than previous Yangon nepada based governments Myanmar territory is currently controlled by a mix of Eros fighting against the sac and aligned with the pro-democracy movement Sac forces of course Eros and local militia aligned with or that have ceasefires with the sac by PDFs people's Defense Forces or areas that are contested and the site of substantial fighting analysis of conflict data showing ero ero locations strongly indicate that since the coup many Eros have expanded their area of operations a recently leaked document that provides the note of a Sac internal security meeting was very very enlightening in that uh in that meeting uh SAC officials and these were officials leading various operations in various States and regions throughout the country uh Express great anxiety and fear about the loss of their control and the success of the opposition and they predict it now this is these are the sac's own leadership they predicted that this trend will continue a pace in 2023 with PDF growing capabilities and operational control the sac also fails the standard of Habitual uh Obedience of the masses as evidenced by widespread arm resistance to its attempt to its attempted rule protests strikes and boycotts protests and armed conflict have remained High there have been nearly 10 000 clashes against the sac forces since the coup while protests have declined relative to their Peak as a direct result of the sac's deadly crackdowns they continue there have been at least 1400 anti-sac demonstrations in the last six months alone despite despite the danger the sac's sustainability and its permanence are gravely in doubt and it has proven itself incapable of effectively managing the country now just look at these startling startling facts first of all half of myanmar's school age children have been denied the opportunity for a formal education for the last two years half 1.2 million people 1.2 million have been displaced since the coup driving the number of uh displaced people in Myanmar to 1.5 million nearly half of myanmar's population is now living below the poverty line 17.6 million people are expected to be in need of humanitarian assistance in 2023 17.6 million people this is a dramatic increase from the 1 million people that were in need of humanitarian Aid before the coup from 1 million to 17.6 million since the coup finally the sac has manifestly failed to abide by myanmar's International obligation under any and every uh standard that we might want to look at it also can't be uh trusted to abide by the commitments that it has made since the coup and I think the best example of that uh is what what occurred two months after the coup When leaders of asean uh Nations brought together uh the leaders of that that group in order to hammer out a way to address the crisis and end the crisis and they established what is known as the five-point consensus the first point being the most important which was the cessation of violence me and online was in that meeting mean online committed to those five points including uh the the cessation of all violence he had no sooner returned to Myanmar from that meeting when he uh declared that those uh those the five-point consensus those points were not really commitments they were mere suggestions he said and that he may abide by those suggestions once he's been able to with his forces uh stabilize stabilize the country applying the same International standards of legitimacy used to to look at the claims of legitimacy by the sack I found that the nug has a far stronger claim to legitimacy Democratic legitimacy and being the legitimate representative of the people of Myanmar The the nug provides the International Community with a credible alternative to the sac and of course the nug has a strong claim to representing the will of the people of Myanmar as expressed in the November 2020 elections as highlighted uh in the report the nld won 396 of the 498 contested seats in Parliament the Hunter's political party they won 33. that's 396-33 not exactly a cliffhanger when it comes to uh an election we are talking about a uh an entity the nug that is broadly representative and reflecting the will as as evidenced by this credible election uh in Myanmar The National Unity government has a strong claim to the international standard of being the legitimate representative of the people and the four considerations for this standard or this one seeking to replace a government that has lost legitimacy being representative three being Broad and fourth being sustainable the nug is seeking to rest control of the state apparatus from an entity that has no legitimacy the Ministers of the nug represent a diversity never seen in myanmar's history half of the 26 cabinet members belong to ethnic minority groups eight are women one identifies as gay the nug has committed to becoming even more diverse and I strongly encourage it to do so including represent including appointing a rohinga as in a leadership role within the government clearly the pro-democracy movement that the nug leads is broad-based it has the support of millions of people within Myanmar and it reflects the values the interests and the aims upon which all can agree the nug has publicly committed to the position of establishing a true Federal democracy following the defeat of the sac something something major ethnic minority groups have been demanding since Independence in 1948. I encourage the nug to continue Earnest engagement with the Eros and the UCC in the creation of such a constitution and such a future of Myanmar I urge member states to provide recognition to the nug as the legitimate representative of the people of Myanmar and begin providing appropriate support to ensure their sustainability so that leaves us with a military Hunter that manifestly lacks a claim to being legitimate and a resistance movement led by the nug that has a very strong claim indeed that leads us to a a sack that is of course uh fearful of its losses inside the country in terms of uh control of the territory and the illegitimacy that it has and its failure failure to generate legitimacy in the eyes of the International Community what's it going to do well it's decided what's what it's going to do is holds what it claims is an election uh this year and thereby Turn the page so that the International Community can recognize a legitimate democratically elected government ladies and gentlemen you cannot have a free and fair election when you arrest detain torture and execute leaders of the opposition you cannot have an election when it is against the law for journalists to do their job you cannot have a legitimate free and fair election when it is a criminal act to criticize the Hunter member States international organization and election monitoring groups should not Aid and abet this travesty by providing technical support to the sac's union Election Commission or to send election observers to Myanmar instead they should explicitly denounce what will be a farcical exercise designed to perpetuate military control of myanmar's political system against this excuse me against this backdrop I spent considerable time and effort examining member State engagement or lack thereof with with the stack and in this case there is good news and bad news to report the good news is that the International Community has by and large refused to accept the sac's claim to be the legitimate government of Myanmar the U.N credentials committee has prevented the hunter from occupying Myanmar seat in the general assembly the UN General Assembly in resolution 75 287 called upon me the Myanmar Armed Forces to respect the will of the people as freely expressed by the results of the general election of November 8 2020 and the association of Southeast Asian Nations has barred Hunter representatives from Key asean meetings most Democratic states especially those that make the promotion of democracy and human rights part of their foreign policy agenda do not explicitly recognize nor engage with the sac as the government of Myanmar I highlight in particular actions and statements of Myanmar States of member states I'm sorry that have acted to deprive the hunter of legitimacy including Australia Canada the 27 member states of the European Union Japan Liechtenstein New Zealand Norway the Republic of Korea Switzerland the United Kingdom and the United States these action in actions include a denouncement of the coup the downgrading of diplomatic relations the imposition of sanctions and engagement with the national Unity government I identify in the report a small minority of States including Belarus China India Russia Saudi Arabia and Sri Lanka that have implicitly supported the Hunter's claim as the government of Myanmar by taking actions that are tantamount to recognition these actions include presenting uh diplomatic credentials to the SEC the sac leadership strengthening economic and Military relations with the sac and in the case of at least Belarus and India publicly engaging with the sac on his plans to hold sham elections none of these states have publicly indicated having engaged with the national Unity government The Limited engagement of some other states have been used by the sac to advance their claims of legitimacy manipulated by the sect to advance their claims of legitimacy these include Australia Bangladesh Japan the Republic of Korea and South Africa which based these engagements on specific foreign policy or national security concerns or the interests of their citizens within Myanmar asean States now appear divided over asean policy vis-a-vis the SEC Brunei Indonesia Malaysia the Philippines and Singapore have reduced diplomatic engagement with the sac and have rejected its claims of legitimacy some of these member states have also engaged with the national Unity government Cambodia Laos Thailand and Vietnam have chosen to engage with the with the SAG I did extensive research during the drafting of this paper and I sought the input and the feedback from every member State who I mentioned I thought it noteworthy that many states that engage with the sex stress to me that they do not view their engagement as tantamount to recognition Vietnam for example told me and I'm quote contact exchange and cooperation activities with Myanmar within bilateral settings of asean Frameworks should not be interpreted as or equated with the recognition of a military government or the state administrative Council Cambodia meanwhile told me and I quote it is seriously misleading to equate such engagement with legitimizing them so it's encouraged encouraging to me that even those countries that have moved to engage in one form or another with the sac recognize the plain truth the sack lacks legitimacy finally I make a series of recommendations in my report I urge all member states particularly those who have imposed some cost on the one to to initiate a strategic approach to strengthen coordinate and enforce economic sanctions and in arms embargo on the sac this includes sanctioning Myanmar oil and gas Enterprise aviation fuel the keys Sac controlled Financial channels including the Myanmar foreign trade Bank and I urge Australia Japan New Zealand and the Republic of Korea all of which have imposed sanctions in the Russia Ukraine context to to act immediately to impose sanctions on the sac and its interests asean States should publicly distance themselves from the sac and condemn its actions I urge them to support the enforcement of international sanctions in their jurisdictions and increase their engagement with the national Unity government I urge Belarus China India Russia Saudi Arabia and Sri Lanka to reconsider and reverse their policies with respect to actions that are tantamount to recognizing or otherwise legitimizing the sack now I recognize that some states particularly those sharing a border with Myanmar may have security reasons to maintain communication Channels with the hunter indeed many asserted that their engagement should not be an indication of a recognition of legitimacy on this route on this front including Bangladesh I urge whatever communication may need to be pursued that member states not engage with the sac as the rightful government of Myanmar any engagement related to resolving the Myanmar crisis should include the national Unity government and other pro-democracy bodies I finally urge U.N agencies to conduct due diligence before inviting any member states to conferences to ensure that Sac representatives are excluded and I urge the UN office of legal Affairs to instruct all U.N funds agencies programs and Affiliates that the sacks should not be invited to any conference or uh meetings and finally I urge Regional and Global election monitoring organizations such as International idea to expressly disavow and reject the sac's planned elections for 20 uh 23 and I'm sure that Marcus is going to have a few words about that let me just say in closing this is a critical year for the people of Myanmar the second anniversary of the coup is the second anniversary of a disaster for the people of Myanmar and the second anniversary of a failure for the International Community with respect to Myanmar in the year ahead in the year that is forthcoming let us learn the lessons of the past two years and let us resolve to provide the people of Myanmar with the support that they so so much deserve uh and need so that next year next year we are celebrating the Turning of the tide to a Justice and toward human rights for the people of Myanmar thank you so much thank you so much Tom for this incredibly Rich analysis full of important data to show the scale of the humanitarian political and economic disaster of Myanmar also for highlighting some hopeful messages um interesting to hear about the the recognition of the success of the opposition in these leaked documents also these important messages for the International Community to recognize the energy and engage with the energy not under any circumstances to engage with these sham elections that are planned for August um and and to increase sanctions in a consistent and coordinated way also some key messages for the UN there so thank you very much Tom for for this and now we will turn over to Marcus brand head of international ideas Myanmar program who's going to give us an overview of the most recent International idea policy paper on on elections at a crossing point considerations for electoral design in postcode Myanmar over to you Marcus thank you Anika excellencies ladies and gentlemen first of all I would like to thank special Robert Tom Andrews for co-hosting today's event with us and for his excellent briefing on his latest conference paper and for his tireless support for the people of Myanmar which is a commitment we wholeheartedly share I would also like to thank permanent representative of Canada Bob Ray for his excellent remarks and his leadership among member states here in New York and I would also like to thank and acknowledge the presence of Ambassador chomutun the permanent representative of Myanmar who is here with us and whose principal stance has become a shining example of integrity and upholding the rule of law at the United Nations let me also acknowledge the fact that as an intergovernmental organization comprising 34 member states from around the globe that we are grateful of for enjoying the status of a permanent Observer here at the United UN General Assembly uh on the ground in Myanmar International idea has been active on supporting democracy since more than 20 years including with the sizable field presence for the past decade where we have built a close partnership with the Union Election Commission and the Parliament of Myanmar which with the latter we still maintain since after the coup we have been only operating from outside the country following threats and security concerns so at the moment we do not have any staff or contractors inside the country which gives us a free hand to speak as we do we understand that some of our peer organizations are not in the same situation today we would like to present to our to you our idea report on elections in Myanmar at the crossroads which was prepared by Michael Lee dauer and Jill Safi who are two of the leading experts globally on elections in Myanmar and this report was already presented at the European Parliament in Brussels in December last year so I will only summarize its findings now and mention some of its recommendations it is also available on our website in English and Burmese and you can also find summaries in Burmese and also in Thai I will then also read a joint statement on the Sham elections with reference to the Declaration of principles for international election Observers ladies and gentlemen following a decade of democratic opening and two general elections organized under the 2008 constitution in 2015 and 2020 myanmar's military abruptly ended this period with a coup d'etat on the 1st of February 2021. the military leadership has established a governing body called the state Administration which we already heard about earlier today and sought to justify its coup with a narrative of electoral fraud regarding the November 2020 elections this narrative has since been extended as the re as the election results were canceled political leaders and election administrators arrested and convicted and evidence was fabricated to legitimize these actions the sack quickly announced that it would hold fresh elections possibly in 2023 and to this end it is planning changes to the election and political party registration laws some of which were just recently announced in the past few days it seeks to change the electoral system with the apparent aim of manufacturing electoral outcomes in the interests of the military and its proxies it attempts to co-opt or coerce mostly small political parties to join it in these undertakings and it is preparing a new voters list the military is likely to perpetuate its Narrative of electoral fraud and make preparations for an electoral sham exercise aimed at legitimizing his hold on power it is therefore critical that the International Community does not provide any recognition to the to the juntas undertakings at the same time the country is experiencing unprecedented resistance to the military's attempts to establish control by force pro-democracy actors some of who remain in the country while others are in Exile are not only supporting Civil Disobedience and opposition to military rule but also seek to reconfigure the Constitutional framework for a future Democratic and federal Myanmar democratically elected representatives and interim institutions created since the coup have begun to prepare a new institutional framework in particular with the adoption of a revised Federal democracy Charter in January 22 exactly a year ago in preparation for a new permanent Federal Constitution to be adopted by a future constituent assembly International idea focuses on three main themes in its work electoral processes Constitution building processes and political participation and representation and this report has been produced to support Myanmar stakeholders in all of these areas International idea has recommended and explained in this report that it is advisable to factor in questions of electoral design from an early stage this can also help to counter the military's problematic narratives in this endeavor guidance can be found in international human rights law which provides principles for and guidelines on holding Democratic elections this includes the universal Declaration of Human Rights but also the iccpr which the Myanmar National Unity government has now pledged to sign up to and ratify guidance can also be found in myanmar's past electoral experiences as the next generation of lawmakers and election administrators inherit a host of lessons learned from dealing with long-standing systemic and structural problems with the electoral process in particular also with regard to the inclusion of the rohingya community by building on an overview of myanmar's recent electoral history and deconstructing the military's election related claims this report proposes key areas for consideration in the process of federal constitutional design with regard to elections the overall legal framework for elections the choice of electoral system election management voter registration including a clear framework for suffrage rights and dispute resolution the shape of the federal system eventually chosen will have strong impact on the conduct of Elections and the Federal Constitution will determine at which level and how the Electoral legal framework is legislated for federal systems provide for a division of powers between the center and federal units allowing the two levels of government to function partly autonomously the forward-looking parts of this report are intended as a contribution to ongoing discussions among Democratic decision makers for on options for electoral Design Within a federal framework it should also contribute to the international community's understanding of the centrality of elections in the strategy of the military Junta and in any future Federal path chosen by Democratic forces ladies and gentlemen let me now turn to the Joint statement by International election experts and organizations on Myanmar which we release together with onfrail and ndi and several other organizations are still considering ways to join this statement publicly they have already endorsed it informally to us and the statement is of course open for additional endorsements and we invite all related organizations to join us in this but on frail and ndi have already agreed to publicly join this statement so I'm reading this statement now on our behalf we are organizations specializing in election observation electoral and democracy assistance committed to the Declaration of principles for international election observation a document that was adopted here in this building under the auspices of the U.N Secretary General in 2005 which has become basically the rulebook for integrity for international election observation we denounce and distance ourselves from the Sham election that the illegal and illegitimate military Junta of Myanmar the state administrative Council sac and the illegitimate Union Election Commission it has established are currently planning for later this year we also Express an urgent request to the International Community to deny the sac any technical material or symbolic support for such a sham election we encourage U.N member states to join us and make their opposition to the juntas Electoral exercise widely known including through individual and Joint statements and resolutions at the U.N security Council the U.N general assembly and the U.N Human Rights Council has been systematically and massively violating the human rights of the people to such a degree that the free expression of their will cannot at this time be insured it is impossible to hold a genuine election on the current conditions in Myanmar which include the arrest detention torture and the execution of leaders of the most widely supported political party and other politicians and Civic activists as well as the harassment jailing and torture of journalists those who criticize the coup and the military Junta and protect the internationally recognized valid elections of 2020 are considered criminals and are persecuted it should also be noted that 21 officials from the legitimate Union Election Commission are still being held in detention following the coup as a result of their involvement in the 2020 elections genuine elections cannot be achieved unless human rights and fundamental freedoms can be exercised including freedom of expression assembly and Association as was largely the case in 2020 the evidence is overwhelming that the Sark denies the exercise of any of these freedoms genuine Democratic elections are an expression of sovereignty which belongs to the people of a country the free expression of whose will provides the basis for the authority and legitimacy of government the sock can make no claim to democratic legitimacy that is representing the will of the people as expressed through elections where possible our organizations offer recommendations for improving the integrity and effectiveness of electoral processes but no recommendations that we could offer on this sham election could cure the falsity of this process other than the sack to follow the call of the United Nations General Assembly let me recall that in its resolution of June 21 the general assembly urged the military I quote to respect the will of the people as freely expressed by the results of the general election of 8 November 2020 to end the state of emergency to respect all the human rights of all the people of Myanmar and to allow the sustained democratic transition of Myanmar end of quote the implementation of Hashem election will not bring stability to Myanmar it will only contribute to increasing violence and polarization worsen the crisis caused by the military coup and further threats to Regional and international stability and security thank you [Applause] both making us understand better how the sac is changing the electoral system in their favor in an already um challenging situation where the opposition is imprisoned tortured killed or in Exile and where there is no Free Press but also for providing recommendations for how the electoral system could be strengthened going forward in a federal structure so uh thank you for that and also for reading out this statement encouraging as many of you as possible to join in this statement um we will now open the floor for discussion but before we open uh to all of you I would like to I have the honor to introduce you and to hear a few words from ambassador jomotung of Myanmar representing the democratic government and Myanmar here at the United Nations and we would like to hear a few words from you thank you over to you ambassador thank you Annika another moderator I would like yeah I would like to be Begin by expressing our sincere appreciation to a special opportunity Mr Thomas Andrew and the international idea for organizing this timely event on the eve of the second anniversary of the illegal military coup in Myanmar as well as for your continuous supporting the Democratic aspiration of the Myanmar people I also wish to thank Ambassador Bobby for his insightful remarks I thank special special reporter Mr Mr Andrew and Mr Market brand of international idea for their comprehensive presentations of the conference room people and the policy paper respectively I support the recommendations made by the special special reporter Madam modulator the title of the conference room paper pretty much summarizes the status of the military Hunter it is illegal it is illegitimate and having seen all kinds of atrocities they committed against the people of Myanmar during this two years we have to call it what it is it is an illegal illegitimate and criminal criminal Hunter North constitutional or statutory laws provided any legality to the force Valley Detention of the nation's democratically electricity sitting president buying the an elected military leaders if it was by every interpretation and illegal coup and treason against the government and the country [Applause] this special reporter rightly pointed out that the SEC has no constitutional legitimacy no Democratic legitimacy Sac is not representing the people of Myanmar SEC does not meet internationally accepted criteria of effective control it is crystal clear the military survival is based only on neutral Force they shot peaceful protesters to silence their voices they in inhalated the rule of law and replace it with corruption to make people living with fear the torture detainees and executed Democratic activists to strike fear and able to contain the growing resistance they punish the civilian populations by repeated Mexico's indiscriminate area bombings and Wholesales Banning of residences residential towns and villages that atrocities committed by the military Hunter amount to crimes against humanity and World crimes the consequences of the military's atrocities and institutional destruction are extremely huge not only from Myanmar but also countries in the region and Beyond the people Myanmar are Resolute to end the military's lawlessness and avoid any future repeat of this situation Madam modulator I joined the special reporter in ajin or um member states not to support the illegal Hunters attempt to gain legitimacy through the Sham election the reason is so obvious no election organized and controlled by the illegal Hunter will have any chance to genuine free fair and independent especially why they are holding politicians in hostages and the rule of law has been dismantled send elections of the military were never whenever be a solution nor a realistic part to stability of course we need elections but for any future elections to be genuine free fair and Democratic we must have conducive con conditions conducive to a trans transition to the federal Democratic Union in doing so the people of Myanmar need help from the International Community specifically we need timely coordinated concrete actions both from the U.N security Council and individual countries to help us release the country from the military dictatorship who the perpetrators of the serious International crimes to account and begin a genuine transition towards a democracy with effective inclusive and accountable institutions it will be the real is it to sustainable peace in Myanmar people Myanmar deserve nothing less than a free open just and peaceful Democratic country I wish to reiterate that the national Unity government of Myanmar appreciates your efforts Mr Thomas Andrew and always stand ready to close working with you and everyone who went peace and democracy in Myanmar and thank you thank you words and and you you are an important proof that the sac does not represent the legitimate government of Myanmar in any way since you are sitting here representing Myanmar at the UN as a representative of the democratic government of Myanmar um and but still important your message of urging all member States including the U.N security Council as well to support a democratic Myanmar and your report on outlines how this could be done so now we will open the floor for questions um and we have a few 20 minutes about four questions and answers so the floor is is open any questions [Applause] over to you ambassador of Liechtenstein thank you so much uh and I really want to thank our friends from International view um for for putting this uh for putting this together and um a big thanks to uh to Tom Andrews for uh for all the work that he has done um and for giving us a very I mean I think legally and politically very compelling um uh case you have uh you have talked in in the past very vocally about the issues of uh of supply of weapons to the country that was addressed in the ga resolution but has not been implemented um consistently by the International Community and be echoed that uh that call we were in the lead of that resolution and we continue to believe that that provision is of or is is the key provision of the channel assembly resolution that should be followed up on uh in the security Council and and elsewhere you have now turned your attention to uh to the topic we have discussed today and we do believe that this is really essential uh essential um topic I think you have made it very clear that engagement doesn't mean recognition and that is uh you know an approach that we completely agree with with respect to Myanmar and also in in connection with other situations and it's important uh to make that uh to make the differentiation but we are certainly called upon here on a daily basis to work uh very consistently for the issue of representation at the UN and the first thing we can do is of course to support our friend and colleague tomotun in his role he is a fully accredited PR of his country to the UN as I am and as Bob is in this Axel are and he can play all uh all the roles and the functions uh as as such but he doesn't need our support in this respect um we do agree that it's good that the credentials committee has has made it uh possible for him to continue playing this role we're not that happy that the decision of the credentials committee is not applied consistently across the UN system I have to say so we're looking as Tom certainly knows at a very different situation in Geneva and uh and at a different situation again at the international court of justice and we do believe that it is actually very clear that what the credential committee says should be applied across the UN system as a whole and that's something that I think all of us need to continue uh calling for whenever um we can uh I also want to flag as Jomo did the uh the importance of accountability uh for for what we are discussing here uh there is of course a case before the international court of justice that is uh that is well known um there is also the investigation of the international criminal court into a very uh small but extremely important facet of its uh of its docket of of crimes there is also um the uh the expressed intention of the energy to join their own statute of the international criminal court which is really of essential importance um but I I do believe now that's also how I understood uh that the panelists that we are all called or upon to make to take a very very clear stance on the on the so-called elections uh that are that are being planned and that we have to do so very early on so not after the elections uh or not to comment on the result of the elections but on the fact that it is uh that it is impossible um to hold anything coming close to free and fair elections that meet with any sort of international standards that we're all in agreement with so thank you so much and thank you for doing this today um this is a very important discussion that would I think deserve a larger audience but I'm grateful to see everybody here and I hope that people will also be very vocal tomorrow on the on the first of February which is the actual anniversary thank you thank you so much Ambassador um for for your important messages on consistency across the UN system with regards to recognition of the democratic government of Myanmar so that's that's important to keep in mind and I think also the timing um the stance on the elections that have been announced I think that's very important that this that they are denounced now early on and not um after the facts um are there any other questions in the room if you do raise your hand over to you thank you thank you let me Begin by thanking idea for organizing this very important event and also I would like to uh especially appreciate the statement of Special Report here Tom Andrews and I hope I will get a copy of this statement if it is I mean regarding this I mean you know I'm I'm the deputy permanent representative of Bangladesh so Bangladesh is actually I would like to if you give me three four minutes of time I'd like to see these issues from three planes one is the humanitarian so for this Bangladesh is taking care of 1.2 million rohingya refugees and do it and will do um the best possible efforts to to continue this support of course with the help of the International Community and since it is humanitarian I also want to thank the ambassador of Liechtenstein I mean for his comments and we share his views fully second on the bilateral plane I think Special Report here has already mentioned since Bangladesh is a neighboring country so we have to remain engaged with with the current I mean the current I I don't know whether I should legally call it government or not but it is up to you to say and decide but we have to have we have to have some kind of Engagement due to not only security but also for the People to People relations that we have from from I mean decades and and on the international level uh as a responsible country internationally and as a democracy Bangladesh believes that that the denial of citizenship status and related rights to any ethnic communities and minorities anywhere in the world is a concerned serious human rights concerned so we wherever it happens if it is in Myanmar also we think the same way and also we want to see that the equal opportunity for representation and equal inclusive participation of any any person in a country in a defined country can be given be it Myanmar rohingyas or others and thirdly and the UN General Assembly third committee resolution it is said to to ensure rohingy is another minority is an internally distressed persons I am reading from the Para 14m of the operative era that they have an equal opportunity for representation and the full equal and meaningful participation as candidates and votes in all general elections now this is my I mean statement or comments as Bangladeshi presentative here but I have some questions which is not necessarily as a Bangladesh representative as a person and also for all of our understanding because these are legal issues so I don't know whether these are this is appropriate to to ask the questions on behalf of Bangladesh government but I I'm sure I mean on the basis of your answer Bangladesh government will be able to think about the policy changes or whatever to maintain the policy first question is whether each and every time I formulated this now but there could be some linguistic problems whether each and every time a government takes over either legally or illegally do they need to do they need to have a fresh recognition of other governments around the world that is number one and number two in the concept note possibly I saw that there is a sentence sorry for that though there is a sentence that UN member states to deny any support to SSC so what does that any support means other than particularly it is mentioned that holding the supporting the elections what does any support mean and thirdly what are the tools in hands of International Community to denounce or reject elections of course other than just giving statements or some sort of mini sanctions and the last one would be like we know that U.N security council's resolution are legally binding so in 2669 what are the legally binding part and and which part is legally binding for International Community or for Myanmar for other member states and particularly in relation to the asean so what are The Binding portion of the security Council resolution is binding to asean thank you very much thank you so much to the representative of Bangladesh um four questions to panel do you want to start could I ask you please could you repeat the first question foreign whether each and every time a government takes over either legally or illegally or any changeover of government either by election electoral means or illegally by coup or other means do they need fresh recognition of the International Community or countries around the world we see that it is a convention to congratulate on things but whether they need a legal whether there is a legal need to take fresh recognitions happens when there are competing claims when a government particularly is when there's a violent overthrow of a of a in a normal course of things when there's a change of government then it is a as you say congratulations now we move forward but it's in the particular case of Myanmar and in some other cases in which a democratically elected body is overthrown uh by a violent uh by use of force by a violent entity in this case the sac it becomes a it becomes a question and an issue um the U.N member states can deny support in many significant ways the first as you mentioned the election uh not recognizing this election and not allowing the hunter to use it as a propaganda tool uh for it for its people in other words what they're using is every opportunity to create this veneer of legitimacy uh that they will then try to convince the people of Myanmar that they're being recognized by the International Community so even any way in which that can be avoided is a service uh to the people of Myanmar by by member states but there are other ways um certainly um helping to stop the flow of weapons into the into the the hands of the Junta uh helping to stop the flow of of money of resources of of flows of of cash which are then being used to either produce weapons or the materials to make weapons in in their domestic production facilities so those are all ways that governments can play a a particularly important role but legitimacy I think is very important particularly on the eve of 2023 and these so-called elections that are going to be orchestrated uh uh mid uh mid-year um and then the in terms of the security Council um uh the the resolution that was passed uh in December was an important one I know that the those that were supporting it involved with it worked very very hard in its development but it's not binding uh that is to say this is uh in order to achieve a binding resolution you would need to have the support of all the permanent members of the of the security Council and obviously that was not going to happen but there's a there's a pattern here um in the Ukraine context there was not a binding resolution from the security Council but nonetheless governments worked together to form a very effective strategic coalition that could then identify where they collectively could do the most good in terms of actions such as sanctions and Target those sanctions so that they all add up to a coherent whole that is what is missing when it comes to Myanmar that kind of strategic coordinated approach by a coalition of countries much like we saw with respect to the Ukraine crisis we've yet to see with respect to the Myanmar crisis so those are all ways that the International Community can provide significant support I mean whether they are bound to do something as per the security Council resolution well the the the resolution as I was saying is is it's it's not a it it's not binding uh resolution that is to say it is it is not an it's not an action it's not uh you know my understanding is Security Council resolutions are binding legally binding it depends on the nature of the resolution okay the resolution that was passed in December uh was not there is nothing uh that could be I mean legally binding like for example uh the request the asean as an organization to to engage with the special Environ to see how un can help and things like that so are they legally bound to bound to work with the special Environ or they can say that it is not our matter we can just no no it here is enforcement right so the the security Council had a resolution calling upon member States including asean to do very very important things that's very significant very important but it's not enforceable in the sense I mean of course I have one small question I mean since uh Myanmar is a federal I mean government right the federal structure so the Nationals they are a national government and the sub National governments at the I don't know the full structure but so when we say that the elections are illegal or illegitimate I mean it is just again for my understanding it is not Bangladesh's position so what happens to the like state or something I mean if they said that they want to do the election then what the International Community will do I mean what is the nature of the illegality of the elections in in Myanmar it is only for the Federal Parliament I don't know this structure I admit but what happens to the local like for example if we think about the us or India like when there is a presidential election and the congression on senate elections so which one normally the governments around the world they congratulate the president they don't congratulate the governor or the I mean the senator or Congressman right I mean at the official level so what will happen if any state any province of Myanmar say that the people are agreeable to the elections then how would the International Community handle that I mean in terms of recognition thank you [Applause] if I I may answer that briefly with reference to the 2008 Constitution that we now consider defunct but which the military is still considering to be the legal framework for what it does according to this quite peculiar Constitution elections in Myanmar were held at the same time at the union level for a bicameral Parliament or let's rather say for 75 percent of the seats in those because the quarter was always held by the military as well as for the 14 Assemblies of the states and regions so in November 2020 all of these elections were held at the same time for the elected seats of the two chambers of the Union Parliament as well as for the 14 State and region unicameral assemblies and when the and the military prevented on the 1st of February 21 the convening of the Union Parliament but also of the 14th state and region parliaments and took over control or attempted to Take Over Control in those 14 States and regions as well so we often speak about the union Parliament but basically we have hundreds of additional elected representatives in state and Regional assemblies who have suffered a similar fate to the union and peace meaning they have been persecuted they have been killed they have been arrested many of them have left the country and many of them are still active in as the union Parliament is in trying to put together these interim legislatures and reaching out to other stakeholders in in building these broader coalitions so the it's very actually a very good point that you raise attention to the state and Regional level because as we are moving more into a federal system this level of government will be increasingly important and it is also in the plans in the current plans of the military Junta that we were talking about not only to re to create a new Union Parliament uh in in its own making but also to create the 14 State and region parliaments with the same intention of of controlling the outcome and of putting in proxy parties because again in the 2020 November elections it was the nld that won uh in some cases the totality of the seats in at the state and Regional level and is the dominant political power at the state and region level as well so that is the brief answer to your question thank you Marcus for clarifying that and for the very pertinent questions posed by the representative of Bangladesh we have five more minutes for questions if anyone wants to ask another question I also wanted to let you know those that are sitting in the blue seats if you do want to make a question we have a microphone that we can provide to you so anyone can make a question I don't see any other questions in the room so I would like to take this opportunity to thank the speakers for their excellent and insightful contributions to this discussion uh thanks for all the pertinent questions and um all our support to to Myanmar and particularly tomorrow thank you everyone goodbye

see librivox.blogsoom.com today's reading by christian mcquillen call of the wild by jack london chapter three the dominant primordial beast the dominant primordial beast was strong in buck and under the fierce conditions of trail life it grew and grew yet it was a secret growth his newborn cunning gave him poise and control he was too busy adjusting himself to the new life to feel at ease and not only did he not pick fights he avoided them whenever possible a certain deliberateness characterized his attitude he was not prone to rashness and precipitate action and in the bitter hatred between him and spitz he betrayed no impatience shunned all offensive acts on the other hand possibly because he divined and buck a dangerous rival spitz never lost an opportunity of showing his teeth he even went out of his way to bully buck striving constantly to start the fight which could end only in the death of one or the other early in the trip this might have taken place had it not been for an unwanted accident at the end of this day they made a bleak and miserable camp on the shore of lake la barge driving snow a wind to the cut like a white hot knife and darkness had forced them to grope for a camping place they could hardly have fared worse at their backs was a perpendicular wall of rock and perrault and francois were compelled to make their fire and spread their sleeping robes on the ice of the lake itself the tent they had discarded at diet in order to travel light a few sticks of driftwood furnished them with a fire that thawed down through the ice and left them to eat supper in the dark close in under the sheltering rock buck made his nest so snug and warm was it that he was loathed to leave it when francois distributed the fish which he'd first thought over the fire but when buck finished his ration and returned he found his nest occupied a warning snarl told him that the trespasser was spitz till now bucket avoided trouble with his enemy but this was too much the beast in him roared he sprang upon spitz with a fury which surprised them both and spits particularly for his whole experience with buck had gone to teach him that his rival was an unusually timid dog who managed to hold his own only because of his great weight and size francois was surprised too when they shot out in a tangle from the disrupted nest and he divined the cause of the trouble he cried the buck give it to him by gow keep it to him did delty thief spitz was equally willing he was crying with sheer rage and eagerness as he circled back and forth for a chance to spring in buck was no less eager and no less cautious as he likewise circled back and forth for the advantage but it was then that the unexpected happened the thing which projected their struggle for supremacy far into the future passed many a weary mile of trail and toil an oath from hero the resounding impact of a club upon a bony frame and a shrill yelp of pain heralded the breaking forth of pandemonium the camp was suddenly discovered to be alive with skulking furry forms starving huskies four or five score of them who had scented the camp from some indian village they had crept in while buck and spitz were fighting and when the two men sprang among them with stout clubs they showed their teeth and fought back they were crazed by the smell of the food perrault found one with head buried in the grub box his club landed heavily on the gaunt ribs and the grub box was capsized on the ground on the instant a score of the famished brutes were scrambling for the bread and bacon the clubs fell upon them unheeded they yelped and howled under the reign of blows but struggled nonetheless madly till the last crumb had been devoured in the meantime the astonished team dogs had burst out of their nests only to be set upon by the fierce invaders never had bucks seen such dogs it seemed as though their bones would burst through their skins they were mere skeletons draped loosely and draggled hides with blazing eyes and slathering fangs but the hunger madness made them terrifying irresistible there was no opposing them the team dogs were swept back against the cliff at the first onset buck was beset by three huskies and in a trace his head and shoulders were ripped and slashed the din was frightful billy was crying as usual dave and solex stripping blood from a score of wounds were fighting bravely side by side joe was snapping like a demon once his teeth closed on the four leg of a husky and he crunched down through the bone pike the malingerer leaped upon the crippled animal breaking its neck with a quick flash of teeth and a jerk buck got a frothing adversary by the throat and was sprayed with blood when his teeth sank through the jugular the warm taste of it in his mouth goaded him to greater fierceness he flung himself upon another and at the same time felt teeth sink into his own throat it was spits treacherously attacking from the side perrow and francois having cleaned out their part of the camp hurried to save their sled dogs the wild wave of famished beasts rolled back before them and buck shook himself free but it was only for a moment the two men were compelled to run back to save the grub upon which the huskies returned to the attack on the team billy terrified into bravery sprang through the savage circle and fled away over the ice pike and dub followed on his heels with the rest of the team behind as buck drew himself together to spring after them out of the tail of his eye he saw spits rush upon him with the evident intention of overthrowing him once off his feet and under that mask of huskies there was no hope for him but he braced himself to the shock of spitz charge then joined the flight out on the lake later the nine team dogs gathered together and sought shelter in the forest though unpursued they were in a sorry play there was not one who was not wounded in four or five places while some were wounded grievously dub was badly injured in a hind leg dolly the last husky added to the team at daya had a badly torn throat joe had lost an eye while billy the good natured with an ear chewed and rent to ribbons cried and whimpered throughout the night at daybreak they limped warily back to camp to find the marauders gone and the two men in bad tempers fully half their grub supply was gone the huskies had chewed through the sled lashings and the canvas coverings in fact nothing no matter how remotely eatable had escaped them they had eaten a pair of perot's moosehide moccasins chunks out of the leather traces and even two feet of lash from the end of francoise whip he broke from a mournful contemplation of it to look over his wounded dogs oh my friends he said softly maybe it'd make you mad dog those mini bites maybe all mad dog suckled what you think the courier shook his head dubiously with 400 miles of trail still between him and dawson he could ill afford to have madness break out among his dogs two hours of cursing and exertion got the harnesses into shape and the wound stiffened team was underway struggling painfully over the hardest part of the trail they had yet encountered and for that matter the hardest between them and dawson the 30 mile river was wide open its wild water defied the frost and it was in the eddies only and in the quiet places that the ice held at all six days of exhausting toil were required to cover those thirty terrible miles and terrible they were for every foot of them was accomplished at the risk of life to dog and man a dozen times perot nosing the way broke through the ice bridges being saved by the long pole he carried which he so held that it fell each time across the hall made by his body but a cold snap was on the thermometer registering 50 below zero and each time he broke through he was compelled for very life to build a fire and dry his garments nothing daunted him and it was because nothing daunted him that he had been chosen for government courier he took all manner of risks resolutely thrusting his little wheezed face into the frost and struggling on from dim dawn to dark he skirted the frowning shores on rim ice that bent and crackled underfoot and upon which they dared not halt once the sled broke through with dave and buck and they were half frozen and all but drowned by the time they were dragged out the usual fire was necessary to save them they were coated solidly with ice and the two men kept them on the run around the fire sweating and thawing so close that they were singed by the flames at another time spitz went through dragging the whole team after him up to buck who strained backwards with all his strength his four paws on the slippery edge and the ice quivering and snapping all around but behind him was dave likewise straining backwards and behind the sled was francois pulling till his tendons cracked again the rim ice broke away before and behind and there was no escape except up the cliff perrault scaled it by a miracle while francois prayed for just that miracle and with every thong and sled lashing and the last bit of harness drove into a long rope the dogs were hoisted one by one to the cliff crest francois came up last after the sled unload then came the search for a place to descend which descent was ultimately made by the aid of a rope and knight found them back on the river with a quarter of a mile to the day's credit by the time they made hutalenka and good ice buck was played out the rest of the dogs were in like condition but perrault to make up lost time pushed them late and early the first day they covered 35 miles to the big salmon the next day 35 more to the little salmon the third day 40 miles which brought them well up toward five fingers buck's feet were not so compact and hard as the feet of the huskies his had softened during the many generations since the day his last wild ancestor was tamed by a cave dweller a river man all day long he limped in agony and camp once made lay down like a dead dog hungry as he was he would not move to receive his ration of fish which francois had to bring him also the dog driver rubbed buck's feet for half an hour each night after supper and sacrificed the tops of his own moccasins to make four moccasins for buck this was a great relief and buck caused even the wheeze and face of perrault to twist itself into a grin one morning when francois forgot the moccasins and buck lay on his back his four feet waving appealingly in the air and refused to budge without them later his feet grew hard to the trail and the worn out foot gear was thrown away at the peli one morning as they were harnessing up dolly who'd never been conspicuous for anything went suddenly mad she announced her condition by a long heartbreaking wolf howl that sent every dog bristling with fear then sprang straight for buck he had never seen a dog go mad nor did he have any reason to fear madness yet he knew that here was horror and he fled away from it in a panic straight away he raced with dolly panting and frothing one leap behind nor could you gain on him so great was his terror nor could he leave her so great was her madness he plunged through the wooded breast of the island flew down to the lower end crossed a back channel filled with rough ice to another island gained a third island curved back to the main river and in desperation started to cross it and all the time though he did not look he could hear her snarling just one leap behind francois called to him a quarter of a mile away and he doubled back still one leap ahead gasping painfully for air and putting all his faith in that francois would save him the dog driver held the ax poised in his hand and his buck shot past him the axe crashed down upon mad dolly's head buck staggered over against the sled exhausted sobbing for breath helpless this was spitz's opportunity he sprang upon buck and twice his teeth sank into his unresisting foe and ripped and tore the flesh to the bone then francoise lash descended and buck had the satisfaction of watching spitz receive the worst whipping as yet administered to any of the teams when deviled at spitz remarked perrault some damn day in kill that buck that buck two death was francoise rejoined her all the time i watched that buck i know for sure listen some damn fine day him get mad like hell and daniel chudat speeds up and spit him out on the ground sure i know from then on it was war between them spitz as lead dog and acknowledged master of the team felt his supremacy threatened by this strange southland dog and strange buck was to him for of the many southland dogs he'd known not one had shown up worthily in camp and on trail they were all too soft dying under the toil the frost and starvation buck was the exception he alone endured and prospered matching the husky in strength savagery and cunning then he was a masterful dog and what made him dangerous was the fact that the club of the man in the red sweater had knocked all blind pluck and rashness out of his desire for mastery he was preeminently cunning and could bide his time with a patience that was nothing less than primitive it was inevitable that the clash for leadership should come buck wanted it he wanted it because it was his nature because he had been gripped tight by that nameless incomprehensible pride of the trail and trace that pride which holds dogs in the toil to the last gasp which lures them to die joyfully in the harness and breaks their hearts if they're cut out of the harness this was the pride of dave as wheel dog of solex as he pulled with all his strength the pride that laid hold of them at break of camp transforming them from sour and sullen brutes into straining eager ambitious creatures the pride that spurred them on all day and dropped them at pitch of camp at night letting them fall back into gleaming unrest and uncontent this was the pride that bore up spits and made him thrash the sled dogs who blundered and shirked in the traces or hid away at harness up time in the morning likewise it was this pride that made him fear buck as a possible lead dog and this was buck's pride too he openly threatened the other's leadership he came between him and the shirks he should have punished and he did it deliberately one night there was a heavy snowfall and in the morning pike the malingerer did not appear he was securely hidden in his nest under a foot of snow francois called him and sought him in vain spitz was wild with wrath he raged through the camp smelling and digging in every likely place snarling so frightfully that pike heard and shivered in his hiding place but when he was at last unearthed and spitz flew at him to punish him buck flew with equal rage in between so unexpected was it and so shrewdly managed that spitz was hurled backwards and off his feet pike who had been trembling abjectly took heart at this open mutiny and sprang upon his overthrown leader buck to whom fair play was a forgotten code likewise sprang upon spitz but francois chuckling at the incident while unswerving in the administration of justice brought his lash down upon buck with all his might this failed to drive buck from his prostate rival and the butt of the whip was brought into play half stunned by the blow buck was knocked backwards and the lash laid upon him again and again while spitz soundly punished the many times offending pike in the days that followed as dawson grew closer and closer buck still continued to interfere between spitz and the culprits but he did it craftily when francois was not around with the covert mutiny of buck a general insubordination sprang up and increased dave and solex were unaffected but the rest of the team went from bad to worse things no longer went right there was continual bickering and jangling trouble was always a foot and at the bottom of it was buck he kept francois busy for the dog driver was in constant apprehension of the life and death struggle between the two which he knew must take place sooner or later and on more than one night the sounds of quarreling and strife among the other dogs turned him out of his sleeping robe fearful that buck and spitz were at it but the opportunity did not present itself and they pulled into dawson one dreary afternoon with the great fight still to come here were many men and countless dogs and buck found them all at work it seemed the ordained order of things that dogs should work all day they swung up and down the main street in long teams and in the night their jingling bells still went by they hauled cabin logs and firewood freighted up to the mines and did all manner of work that horses did in the santa clara valley here and there buck met southland dogs but in the main they were the wild wolf husky breed every night regularly at nine at twelve at three they lifted a nocturnal song a weird and eerie chant in which it was buck's delight to join with the aurora borealis flaming coldly overhead or the stars leaping in the frost dance and the land numb and frozen under its pawl of snow this song of the huskies might have been the defiance of life only it was pitched in a minor key with long drawn wailings and half sobs it was more the pleading of life the articulate travail of existence it was an old song old as the breed itself one of the first songs of the younger world in a day when songs were sad it was invested with the woe of unnumbered generations this point by which buck was so strangely stirred when he moaned and sobbed it was with the pain of living that was of old the pain of his wild fathers and the fear and mystery of the cold and dark that was to them fear and mystery and that he should be stirred by it marked the completeness with which he harked back through the ages of fire and roof to the raw beginnings of life in the howling ages seven days from the time they pulled into dawson they dropped down the steep bank by the barracks to the yukon trail and pulled for diet and salt water pearl was carrying dispatches if anything more urgent than those he brought in also the travel pride had gripped him and he proposed to make the record trip of the year several things favored him in this the week's rest had recuperated the dogs and put them in thorough trim the trail they had broken into the country was packed hard by later journeyers and further the police had arranged in two or three places deposits of grub for dog of man and he was traveling light they made sixty mile which is a fifty mile run on the first day and the second day saw them booming up the yukon well on their way to peli but such splendid running was achieved not without great trouble and vexation on the part of francois the insidious revolt led by buck had destroyed the solidarity of the team it no longer was as one dog leaping in the traces the encouragement buck gave the rebels led them into all kinds of petty misdemeanors no more was spitz a leader greatly to be feared the old awe departed and they grew equal to challenging his authority pike robbed him of half a fish one night and gulped it down under the protection of buck another night dove and joe fought spits and made him forgo the punishment they deserved and even billy the good-natured was less good-natured and whined not half so placatingly as in former days buck never came near spitz without snarling and bristling menacingly in fact his conduct approached that of a bully and he was given to swaggering up and down before spitz's very nose the breaking down of discipline likewise affected the dogs in their relations with one another they quarreled and bickered more than ever among themselves till at times the camp was a howling bedlam dave and solex alone were unaltered though they were made irritable by the unending squabbling francois swore strange barbarous oaths and stamped the snow in feudal rage and tore his hair his lash was always singing among the dogs but it was a small avail directly his back was turned they were added again he backed up spits with his whip while buck backed up the remainder of the team francois knew he was behind all the trouble and buck knew he knew but buck was too clever ever again to be caught red-handed he worked faithfully in the harness for the toil had become a delight to him yet it was a greater delight slightly to precipitate a fight amongst his mates and tangled the traces at the mouth of the tukina one night after supper dub turned up a snowshoe rabbit blundered it and missed in a second the whole team was in full cry a hundred yards away was a camp of northwest police with 50 dogs huskies all who joined the chase the rabbit sped down the river turned off into a small creek up the frozen bed of which it held steadily it ran lightly on the surface of the snow while the dogs plowed through by main strength buck led the pack 60 strong around bend after bend but he could not gain he laid down low to the race whining eagerly his splendid body flashing forward leap by leap in the one white moonlight and leap by leap like some pale frost wraith the snowshoe rabbit flashed on ahead all that stirring of old instincts which its stated periods drives men out from the sounding cities to forest and plain to kill things by chemically propelled lead and pellets the bloodlust the joy to kill all this was bucks only was infinitely more intimate he was ranging at the head of the pack running the wild thing down the living meat to kill with his own teeth and wash his muzzle to the eyes in warm blood there is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life and beyond which life cannot rise and such as the paradox of living this ecstasy comes when one is most alive and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive this ecstasy this forgetfulness of living comes to the artist caught up and out of himself in a sheet of flame it comes to the soldier wore mad on a stricken field and refusing quarter and it came to buck leading the pack sounding the old wolf cry straining after the food that was alive and that fled swiftly before him through the moonlight he was sounding the deeps of his nature and the parts of his nature that were deeper than he going back to the womb of time he was mastered by the sheer surging of life the tidal wave of being the perfect joy of each separate muscle joint and sinew and that it was everything that was not death that it was a glow and rampant expressing itself in movement flying exultantly under the stars and over the face of dead matter that did not move but spits cold and calculating even in his supreme moods left the pack and cut across a narrow neck of land where the creek made a long bend around buck did not know of this and as he rounded the bend the frost wraith of the rabbit still flitting before him he saw another and larger frost wraith leap from the overhanging bank into the immediate path of the rabbit it was spitz the rabbit could not turn and as the white teeth broke its back in midair it shrieked as loudly as a stricken man may shriek at the sound of this the cry of life plunging down from life's apex in the grip of death the fall pack at buck's heels raised a hell's chorus of delight buck did not cry out he did not check himself but drove in upon spits shoulder to shoulder so hard that he missed the throat they rolled over and over in the powdery snow spitz gained his feet almost as though he had not been overthrown slashing buck down the shoulder and leaping clear twice his teeth clipped together like the steel jaws of a trap as he backed away for better footing with lean and lifting lips that rised and snarled in a flash buck knew it the time had come it was to the death as they circled about snarling ears laid back keenly watchful for the advantage the scene came to buck with a sense of familiarity he seemed to remember it all the white woods and the earth and moonlight and the thrill of battle over the whiteness and silence brooded a ghostly calm there was not the faintest whisper of air nothing moved not a leaf quivered the visible breaths of the dogs rising slowly and lingering in the frosty air they had made short work of the snowshoe rabbit those dogs that were ill-tamed wolves and they were now drawn up in an expectant circle they too were silent their eyes only gleaming and their breaths drifting slowly upward to buck it was nothing new or strange the scene of old time it was as though it had always been the wanted way of things spitz was a practiced fighter from spitzenberg through the arctic and across canada and the barons he had held his own with all manner of dogs and achieved to mastery over them bitter rage was his but never blind rage in passion to rend and destroy he never forgot that his enemy was in like passion to rent and destroy he never rushed until he was prepared to receive a rash he never attacked till he had first defended that attack in vain buck strove to sink his teeth in the neck of the big white dog wherever his fangs struck for the softer flesh they were countered by the fangs of spitz fang clashed bang and lips were cut and bleeding but buck could not penetrate his enemies guard then he warmed up and enveloped spits in a whirlwind of rushes time and time again he tried for the snow white throat where life bubbled near to the surface and each and every time spit slashed him and got away then buck took to rushing as though for the throat when suddenly drawing back his head and curving in from the side he would drive his shoulder at the shoulder of spits as a ram by which to overthrow him but instead buck's shoulder was slashed down each time as spitz slept lightly away spitz was untouched while buck was streaming with blood and panting hard the fight was growing desperate and all the while the silent and wolfish circle waited to finish off whichever dog went down as buck crew winded spitz took to rushing and he kept him staggering for footing once buck went over and the whole circle of 60 dogs started up but he recovered himself almost in midair and the circle sank down again and waited but buck possessed a quality that made for greatness imagination he fought by instinct but he could fight by head as well he rushed as though attempting the old shoulder trick but at the last instant swept low to the snow and in his teeth closed on spitz's left foreleg there was a crunch of breaking bone and the white dog faced him on three legs thrice he tried to knock him over then repeated the trick and broke the right four leg despite the pain and helplessness spitz struggled madly to keep up he saw the silent circle with gleaming eyes lolling tongues and silvery breaths drifting upward closing in upon him as he had seen similar circles closing upon beaten antagonists in the past only this time he was the one who was beaten there was no hope for him buck was inexorable mercy was a thing reserved for gentler climbs he maneuvered for the final rush the circle had tightened till he could feel the breaths of the huskies on his flanks he could see them beyond spits into either side half crouching for the spring their eyes fixed upon him a pause seemed to fall every animal was motionless as their turn to stone only spits quivered and bristled as he staggered back and forth snarling with horrible menace as though to frighten off impending death then buck sprang in and out but while he was in shoulder had last squarely met shoulder the dark circle became a dot on the moon flooded snow as spitz disappeared from view buck stood and looked on the successful champion the dominant primordial beast who had made his kill and found it

well in as much as they're broadcasting civic forum that's as it should be you know our friend the inspector seems a little nervous doesn't he because he's hitting the water picture yeah he probably read somewhere that all speakers drink a glass of water before they go on well the other members of the forum must have read the same thing hmm well it's hot in the television studio mary you know blackie it's hard to realize that here we are sitting at home watching and listening to something taking place miles away don't you think television is wonderful oh i don't know they'll never replace the horse [Applause] you know i think it's about time you told me i was wonderful too becky i don't think you'll ever replace the horse either hey hey i think that's inspector faraday yeah yeah now it's his turn to speak i'll turn the radio part on oh good this is gonna be fun and now ladies and gentlemen we continue our roundtable discussion by presenting an outstanding civic leader cyrus baxter oh it's not saturday after all can i turn it down well let's see what baxter has to say i think faraday should follow him he's sitting next to him mr baxter seems to be a bit thirsty too well he finally put down that water ladies and gentlemen i have come here tonight for a specific purpose make accusation against one hey hey what's happening to him he's having a stroke he's choking look he's falling back about which means that somebody laid a murder right in faraday's lap [Applause] and now back to boston blackie enemy to those who make him an enemy friend to those who have no friend there's faraday over there where the police photographers marry he looks awful worried he looks confused but then he always does it if baxter was murdered with saturday right in the room the police commissioner will do some plain and fancy screaming and you know no question about that oh hold it honey we've been detected here comes the inspector hi party thank you before i do anything else i've got one thing to say to you get out of here hello inspector faraday hello miss wesley i make that two things mikey get out and stay out oh have i got troubles i know i saw you by television you photographed badly i'm not talking about that and you know it cyrus baxter was standing right next to me when he was murdered then he was murdered huh why did you do it faraday what do you mean why did i do it i didn't kill him blackie i beat it sure inspector did you find out yet what poison was used poison who said it was poison how could it be poison i drank from the same picture of water so did everybody at the table we weren't poisoned were we oh i don't know how do you feel inspector i feel great i feel like throwing you right out of here oh blackie why don't you stop darling inspector faraday has enough i'm sorry inspector baxter was just about to accuse somebody of something when the poison hit him who said it was poison i told you it couldn't be poison uh excuse me inspector faraday the medical examiner just finished with the body he had to tell your baxter was poisoned by the water he won't be able to identify the poison till after the autopsy okay oh blacky beat it i'll take it from here alone i'll go but you won't be alone inspector there's a person heading this way right now with purpose in his footsteps and you and his mind do you know him well that's rick stings he was secretary to mr baxter inspector inspector i've got to talk to you for a moment uh not now i think you'd better listen to him faraday and now nobody tells me what i better do what do you want daniel inspector i know what mr baxter was going to say when he fell dead i helped him prepare the indictment what kind of an indictment was that daniels uh who are you oh he's boston blackie hmm uh who is black sagono and time a man named thomas ralph thomas mr baxter was going to expose him to the forum members yeah we knew he was farming out city contracts costing the taxpayers additional money thomas huh hey we all had dinner at his house tonight who's all in spiking well me baxter ralph thomas and then they die inspector faraday and you too what is huh what do you do shut up mr waters has political connections very good ones too i remember you mr waters i saw you on our television set yes yes i was scheduled to speak before well before the unfortunate accident it wasn't an accident it was murder somebody wanted to keep baxter quiet charity you say you had dinner at ralph thomas's house yeah four of us uh baxter mr waters thomas and i hey thomas could have poisoned baxter then and have the poison take effect at exactly the right moment faraday i don't think that happens except in books so you don't think it happens well who cares what you think i'm gonna go to work on thomas right now are you sure baxter was gonna accuse thomas daniels of course i'm sure well you're giving us some action inspector that's all i wanted to be sure of come on daniel yes sir thank you inspector fired i thank you very much i was very fond of my employer yeah i know wait a minute um do you figure to step into his job daniels well i i hadn't thought about it much i guess i am the only one who could handle it right away that's all i wanted to know you can go now but i'll be seeing you and you too waters goodbye in a second we'll be seeing you friday hey hey does anybody remember i'm still here uh see that just stay here and keep playing with you i'm going to see this ralph thomas that's right inspector between the two of us we'll make him talk yeah he's going to talk between the one of us and that means me and it also means you're going to keep away from his house far away you get that so likely come on mary would it be impolite to ask claire too a phone booth i'm going to call this ralph thomas and arrange to meet him before faraday can get to him and the subject we'll discuss when we meet will be another man's poison hello is mr thomas home i'm sorry sir he is not this is inspector um uh alan of the police did you serve the dinner at mr thomas's house tonight yes inspector of course i did i just wanted to be sure it was you tell me one thing who cooked in it it's one of my duties was anything wrong i don't know yet tell me this did everyone at the table eat the same food oh yes sir and every bit of else it is my night off and i was just about to leave the house one thing more do you know where mr thomas is this is the academy you might find him there thank you very much goodbye i'm in luck mary oh yes yes blacky what yes mary mr thomas has gone bowling and the chance to see him alone is right down my alley how'd it go tonight mr town well joe had a 165 average for seven games not bad not bad good night joe good night mr thomas see you same time next week all right joe good night mr thomas i'd like to see at the same time this week who are you boston blacky the name mean anything to you vaguely you were looking for me that's pretty apparent isn't it mr thomas did you know that cyrus baxter was murdered tonight no i didn't how did it happen you don't seem very upset there isn't much difference between life and death it's presence of one because of the absence the other if you follow me that's a little beyond my death thomas but murder isn't by the way baxter did have dinner at your house yes that's right he did so did inspector faraday the police and richard waters were they poisoned too i never said that baxter was poisoned no you didn't but you mentioned he was murdered and brought up the fact that he had dinner at my house pretty obvious conclusion don't you think either an obvious conclusion a definite knowledge look thomas you're in a spot baxter was preparing to expose you publicly at that forum did you know that no well it's possible my business is a little out of the ordinary just what is your business just what business is it of use actually none but the police are after you and if you're innocent it's just possible i might be able to help you don't think i poisoned baxter no i think you're too smart to do that but come to think of it this had to be a pretty smart stunt what are you talking about four men had dinner together and later three of those men drank from the same water picture the water was poisoned but only one man died that's a pretty good trick tell me how it was done maybe you'll tell me first of all did all four of you eat the same food at dinner identical uh cream soup roast beef boiled potatoes lima beans ah dessert coffee uh baxter had no coffee is that important you know it's not who prepared the dinner thomas jones my butler he's a very good cook i talked to him earlier i understand he has the night off will he be home later i think so he has an apartment over the garage generally in by midnight on his night off i think i'll go to see him maybe your butler will open the door to a solution of this case [Music] darling this is my idea of completely nothing how can you say that mary well that's easy i'll show you blacky darling this is my idea of completely missing see we're on the trail of a killer gal our route to what may turn out to be a killer's quarters in young here quietly i'm gonna grab him and baby when i grab somebody they say crap and now back to boston blackie while blackie and mary wesley were watching by television cyrus baxter fell dead in the television studio just as he was about to indict ralph thomas political lobbyist thomas's secretary rex daniels and richard waters the civic board member are under suspicion as well as thomas when investigation shows that baxter was poisoned and that he had had dinner with the others at thomas's house a search is made for the butler who cooked and served the dinner on route to his quarters in the thomas garage blackie and mary realize they are being followed and blackie jumps on the man [Applause] well your friends hold you for a while [Applause] what was the idea of trailing me i didn't know it was you either where are you going blackie oh nowhere just out for a stroll yeah i know me too only i took my stroll first i got to this garage 20 minutes ago nobody answered the door in thomas's house so i thought i'd try here was anybody in the garage in sector nobody to speak of just a corpse that's nobody to speak to uh was it the butler yeah knifed oh i give a lot to know why i could tell you i don't want to know that badly now come on let's get into thomas's house and wait for him to come home all good police inspectors have skeleton keys right inspector i got something better you now look can you open that back door blanking i don't know i haven't seen it yet but past performances were in my favor i know there it is go to work okay but this is awfully illegal inspector yeah murder is a little bit against the law too are you coming pretty well there got the door unlocked well open it right yes blackie i smell gassy come on inspector put your hand at your via nose and come on okay i'm with you break that window inspect it first put your flashlight on it so i can see what i'm doing right right over here okay hey hey look inspector that body in the third one first baxter than his brother now thomas here he killed the first two and then committed suicide well it washes this case inspector come here quick oh what is it genius nothing that you'd be interested in except thomas isn't dead we broke in here just in time not dead but he's got to be dead this room is loaded with gas from that kitchen range not too loaded whoever did this might have wanted it to look like suicide but didn't stuff the cracks under the doors and we broke in in time to save thomas look at this bump on the back of thomas's head he got it when the gas hit him and he fell off that chair he could have gotten it when somebody hit him turned on the gas and left him here uh that's what you think as soon as thomas revives i'm taking him to headquarters i'm booking him for murder go ahead but get an apology ready kid you're gonna need it when it turns out that thomas is innocent just keep driving anywhere mary it doesn't matter where we go as long as i have time to think you got time to think out loud i suppose so mary would thomas be clever enough to fake an attack on himself hoping to throw us off the track well what would he hope to gain becky you could hope to flow suspicion on somebody else ralph waters or rex daniels back to secretary i mean he figured you'd break in in time to save him maybe what bothers me too is that poisoning of baxter faraday tells me there was poison found in the water that everybody at the forum drank yet it affected only baxter how can that be i don't know what um would finding a motive help you brackie no not in this case mary everybody had a motive don't say always in mr story invariably only mystery stories generally wind up for the solution i'd like to know what this one is you'll find it darling i know you will that line came out of the same mystery story hey well let's go to work suppose you drive me to ralph waters house and as the dog said when he went flea hunting we start from scratch [Music] [Applause] i don't think there's anything further i care to say to you daniels and certainly nothing further i care to hear from you good day not so fast mr waters i happen to be very fond of mr baxter i admire that very much good day mr waters you had opportunity to poison that drinking water the television studio and reason enough to want mr baxter dead so did you for that matter i had reason bankster's job you've got it now maybe you'd better leave before i start putting pieces together you're trying to insinuate i killed mr baxter the man who gave me the only chance i ever had i could kill you for saying that what do you want here blackie mr waters alive for one thing have him arrested like he he he almost killed me just now yes i know i saw that and it gave me an idea all i've got to do is to put that idea of mine into execution and both of you better hope it isn't your execution i'm talking about lights hurt your eyes thomas too bad go on talk inspector faraday there isn't anything i can tell you except what i've already told you i know nothing of how mr baxter or my butler were killed or who tried to kill me and make it look like suicide tell us i'm gonna no yeah florida speaking well what is it frankie you want me to do what are you kidding of course i won't sure i want to solve this case and that's the way to do it man okay what can i lose except a couple of hours yeah right away eight o'clock tonight is okay bye thomas you're gonna have a dinner party at your house again tonight and then we go to the television studio just like we did last night um what's the reason for all this inspector it's blackie's idea he says he's gonna make a murderer show his hand so we can get a look at his face gentlemen as you know inspector faraday mr waters mr thomas and i have just come here television studio from a dinner where we ate exactly what was served at the dinner last night this forest is a little late in getting started isn't it maybe mr waters but the ending is worth it uh come on blacky come on do something i will faraday i'll start with a roll call first inspect the faraday of the police what do i do now bow not until this case is soft oh fella rex daniels secretary to the late cyrus baxter here richard waters member of the city finance council here blacky and ralph thomas political hangar on holding no office but packing a lot of weight thank you sir it's very hot in the studio under these lights gentlemen here in this picture of ice water i uh you'll all be able to have a drink but i'm going to improve the taste a little the small bottle i asked you for inspector please yeah thank you there's poison in this water gentlemen the same poison that killed baxter i'm going to pour it into the water pitcher and now i'm going to drink a glass of water there now here's a glass of water for you waters for you thomas and for you daniels and for you faraday okay now i want all of you to drink the water together come on now one two oh no i can't do it i can't i tell you i can't drink it daniel's at the count of three one two i won't do it it's murder it'll kill all of us i drank it mr waters remember sure sure you drank it but you took an antidote to dinner you had it in your coffee and you wouldn't serve coffee to any of us he's trying to murder us all don't let him i'm going to get out of here i won't drink that water grab him party he's your murderer richard [Applause] waters i'm listening blackie i'm gloating lovely one where should i begin with the reason that waters killed baxter well that was because baxter was going to indict ralph thomas thomas had to have a partner and a city job that partners was waters it backs the name thomas thomas would pass the buck to waters can't i catch on um i know why the butler was killed too waters had bribed him to put the antidote in the coffee he served at the dinner and later killed him to keep him from talking nice going waters knew baxter drank only milk and so he had the antidote placed in the coffee by the butler he believed i had done the same thing before i drank the water and that gave him away and then waters later tried to kill thomas and make it look like suicide so that thomas would be suspected how am i doing becky you're wonderful mary but i still don't replace the horse huh well i think you were wonderful taking a chance on drinking that water you had poison don't be silly i knew i hadn't any poison in that water it was just more water i added that's all trickier yes darling you're tricky huh and um i'm thirsty huh so huh i'll pour myself a little water i do all the talking and you get thirsty that's what i call close friendship well i'll answer that when i'm [Applause] well with you holding me nothing's the matter i'm a little tricky

J2-vMuJuPt4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2-vMuJuPt4 | 🏆Predicting the 2023 Mystery/Thriller Goodreads Choice Awards Nominees! 🏆 | Hello friends how are we all doing today I feel very nervous for this video I feel like there's a lot of pressure riding on this video but today we're going to be doing a video that a lot of my patrons have asked me to do and I'm going to be predicting the books I think are going to be nominated for the good reads mystery thriller Awards this year and I feel sick to my stomach I've been like avoiding filming this for about an hour I never do that I feel sick to my stomach this was like so much pressure take a deep breath calm down I'm going to be trying to predict the top 20 that I think are going to be nominated and then maybe narrow that down to the top 10 few things I want to say I am not going to get this 100% right it's impossible every year for every category there's like a few books that get nominated that have maybe like a thousand ratings that end up coming 20th in the voting but they're still nominated B good read isn't always the top 20 most popular books in a genre sometimes there are but there's always one or two that sneak in that like no one could have predicted no one knew were going to be there so so I think there's going to be some of those okay that's number one number two I do want to point towards Ashley's little Library who does a very similar video I know she's just posted her one for this year um which I haven't watched cuz I didn't want my mind to be colored I've been planning on doing this since like the start of the Year some of my um Patron Julia shout out Julia has asked me to do this Ashley's a bit different in that Ashley has like a methodology like she works it out mathematically I'm going off on Vibes I have got no planning going into this I have not thought I've tried actually my very hardest not to think at all about this going into this I want to go on this journey with you so we'll start off going through the ones I can just think off the top of my brain that I think are definitely going to be in there and then we'll go look at things like good reads lists that have come out this year of like top mystery thrillers book of the month what books have been part of book of the month CU they always end up being on there or like some of them always end up being on there so that's going to be our methodology just Vibes just Vibes so here is my nomination prediction sheet the way we're going to format this is like I'm going to put the ones that I think are definitely going to be nominated in the green and then as we start finding out more then I'll put some ones that I think may be nominated in the gold and then we'll try and narrow it down to a top 20 and then a top 10 is the way we're going to do this together already already I feel God this is the most pressure I've ever felt for video no I just don't think this is like great for me I don't want to do it I want to go home like I can't take the pressure of it I don't you think any job interview cuz I just feel like there's going to be one book at least that is like an obvious choice that I forget exists but shall we just get into it okay so let me think of some that I think are definitely going to be on there first one that I want to say that I think is definitely going to be on there is the only one left by Riley Sager I think this is absolutely without Shadow or doubt going to be there Riley SEO is almost always nominated and I feel like this could even be a good shout to win like trying to think of what's going to win this year I feel like this has had some of the best reception of a book that has come out this year for mystery thriller I mean let's look it up cuz I think it will have a pretty high rating still even though it's been out for a little while 4.18 94,000 ratings I think Riley is up there with a shout I don't know if Riley's ever won the good I don't think he has no I don't think he has ever won the good re mystery thriller and I think I think he's in with a shout I think he's in with a shout for winning I'm very excited this is like one of the books I want to read the most but I'm now trying to save all the books that I think are going to be nominated for good re's mystery s for that video I feel like my whole life now every year leads up to this video I'm so excited for it I think it's like the most fun video to do but oh my God I'm really trying to predict what is going to you know be on there oh my God this feel like too much pressure okay controversial Choice one that I definitely want to put in there let's bring her in there she is listen to what I have to say because I'm right this one I'm only saying it's a controversial choice because the first and second there's Murder Club books were not nominated for the good re mystery thriller so there's always a chance it just won't be included again there's always a chance it won't be included again but I believe it will okay the bullet the Miss was nominated last year and it came third me me I'm first me me I'm first was number one in the voting I could not believe it um the B this was third rightfully so it's what I voted for and I think the last Del is absolutely going to be nominated I hope it is because I'm not reading it until the video and if it's not nominated we've got a problem on I mean again let's look at this on good read I think it's already got something like um 20,000 ratings even though it's only been out for like a couple weeks maybe almost a month now and it's going to have a ridiculously high rank it's going to be like 4.5 or something 4.6 that's pretty impressive for 22,000 ratings now of course there's always the caveat that with um series they get higher and higher rated as the series goes on because it's only people who have liked the other ones reading it however what if the last wins so many people all the reviews I've been seeing of this are people soing I know what it's going to be about lots of people saying it's their favorite in the series so far I'm not ready but I'm definitely hoping that the last devil to die is going to be on there um what else do I think let me go okay I think this is definitely going to be on there this has been one of the ones I've heard the most people talking about this yet and that is none of this is true by Lisa Joel I feel like Lisa Joel tends to always be nominated but um this has been a big release this year I think in terms of a mystery thriller that people are enjoying it's got that podcast element that everyone seems to be speaking really highly of I think it's been really highly rated again let's go have a look 4.23 with 100 oh that's got more ratings and a higher average rating than the Riley Sega interesting okay I think this is definitely going to be nominated it's got really high ratings and everyone loves a podcast it's a crowd Fe everybody loves a good jazz square and I think this is the most successful release I've seen from Lisa Jewel for a while in terms of public opinion so I think this is going to be there I got a few more that I think are definitely going to be there this one or the dangerous things by Stacey winingham I think Stacey willingham's debut came I want to say fourth last year and so I think she's definitely going to be nominated again and this is Stacey willing him just seems to appeal to like the Baseline Thriller reader like the person who reads like 10 books a year and reads through this and like doesn't read time of BS I think she appeals to that kind of readership 4.11 with 118,000 this is the most rated that we've seen so far the highest readership granted it did come out in January so like it's had a lot of time to build that readership but I mean that plays to its Advantage so I don't know if I think this will win I don't think it will but I think it will be top five in terms of averting I read this I gave it a four start I thought it was like a pretty good basic Thriller now the next one I think is controversial okay this one is a little bit of a risk but we're going to go do some research cuz I've had this thought and I think this is going to be I think this has to be nominated and I think it has to be top 10 I think it'll be like ninth maybe in the voting I think it will make top 10 and that is zero Days by Ruth wear why would you say something so controversial yet so brave I think this is going to make top 10 and here's why okay you may be thinking Megan I haven't heard a ton of people reading this and those who have been reading it I don't think have been loving it I agree I agree I agree but I ask you when was the last time a Ruth wear book didn't make top 10 crickets crickets I need to go look this up okay because I feel like Ruth wear has such a name recognizability now that she is always going to make a top 10 pretty much unless like her book start falling off a cliff I feel like basic th again this being basic Thriller readers bit mean but like your average Thriller reader who doesn't read a lot is going to read Miss Ruth wear they're GNA read Miss Ruth wear you know so I think zero days is going to be nominated let's go do some research on this because I don't think this is going to have a very high rating average rating I haven't heard the best things I don't think it will have a ton of readers yet it hasn't come out okay 40,000 it's got 3.68 now that is dangerously veering on I think a book has to have above a 3.5 to be nominated on good reads that's like the requirement so it is scarting lowly rated but I still think it's going to make top 10 let's go look at M Ruth wear and see the last time a book did not make top 10 let's go let's sort them by year let's go back in time origal publication year okay the E I know I know that made top 10 I don't need to look that up one by one did that make top 10 yeah okay that was eighth that came eth see I think she's always going to make top 10 I think we're going to have to go back to like the death of Mrs Westway or maybe even further back to find one that didn't make the top 10 turn of the key will definitely be top 10 third that came third yeah that is one of her best best agreed death of Mrs Westway now this could not have made top 10 but then we still got we've still gone back to 2018 okay it was nominated that came seventh you see what I mean I don't think Ruth the lion game okay this one maybe okay that one doesn't appear to have been nominated that's interesting but I think the woman in Cabin 10 will have been so the woman cabin 10 came came third are we sure the lion game wasn't nominated let's just double check yeah okay the lion game wasn't nominated so that's how far we have to go back we have to go back to 2017 we have to go back 6 years for a Ruth wear book to have not been nominated and I just I just think she will be and I think it will make top 10 because people you got to remember people vote in this who have not read a single book in this category and so names like Riley Sager Lisa jeel Ruth wear I think are always going to get a baseline number of votes from people who haven't read a single backook in a category but vote for them because they liked the turn and the key or they liked lock every door do you know what I mean so I think think she's going to make top 10 that's a controversial one okay and then I've got one more that I think I can think of off the top of my head that I think will definitely be there an earlier release this year but that is ver Wong's unlisted guide for murderers I just feel like this has to be there I've seen it on so many good reads list I've seen so many people talking about it in the UK it's been a really big release like it's one of those books that gets into the supermarkets in the UK and you have to be doing something right to get into the supermarket in UK would be a very popular book Let's look this one up 40 okay it has less ratings than I thought it would have considering it came out in March but I still I still think this will make top 10 I still think this will make top 10 4.06 not a bad average rating I think this will be nominated so those are the six that I can think of straight up off the top of my head okay I would be very surprised if any of these six didn't make the top 10 I'm saying that now I know that's that's a bit of an iffy statement but I'd be very surprised if any of those didn't make top 10 I am like 90% sure they will all make top 10 10 it won't be a flop I'm confident no the truth is I wonder how right I'll be but I really think they will I think they're the biggest biggest books and in terms of what could win I think these three have the best I mean the last a to die I I don't know I don't know if there has a chance of winning but I do I think it will be up there it came third the BL the Miss came third and I think the last of toight is a more popular book in terms of like reception and rating that I've seen than the bu that missed okay let's go look what should we look at next let's quickly go check I want to go check the um awards from last year and see if there's any other authors who were nominated last year that have got a new book coming out that I haven't included so n Pros she has got the sequel to the maid coming out which one but but it comes out late November so I think it will I'm not including it cuz I think it will miss unless they push the gr's awards back which like please don't I've got it plannned in by content calendar for a very specific day I think it will be in next year's Awards which is an interesting choice Lucy Freddy doesn't have a book Richard do I've included Stacy Willingham I've included Simone St James doesn't have one okay Jillian mallister interesting so just another missing person oh I'm very excited for it but I feel like this had so much hype leading up to it it was like a fairly like it was a bit of a rogue when you complete it with the other books I feel like a lot of these were pretty established author is but this was one that kind of came out of nowhere and was popular I don't think just another missing person is having the same reach or the same reaction that that had it's got a lower average rating with much less ratings it's only got 15,000 ratings oh I think okay I don't know this one's tricky I'm going to go ahead and put that as our first one that I am I'm unsure of it I'm unsure I don't know it could be nominated I'm not convinced it will be and I I think if it is I don't think it will make top 10 because I don't think it's had the same reaction that um wrong place WR time had I don't think Dan Rayborn has had one come out the it girl and then you sure you want to just give it a what you worried about Al has had another one come out she's had another one come out oh I really don't want it to be nominated okay how many ratings has it got it's got a 3.69 with only 13,000 ratings and it came out in August that's not huge in comparison to the other average rate I mean like how many how many ratings did zero days have they had like 40,000 right like it's much lower read I don't know no I only read the top 10 I think this will be okay I think this would make the top 20 maybe we'll end up making it so that I think I put what I think is going to be the top 10 at the top and what I think is going to be the bottom 10 at the bottom and we'll have to get rid of some at the end maybe that will be how we do this but I [ __ ] hope that this does not make the top 10 I don't want to read it I don't want to read it I like there's nothing I want less than this wild than to read good you don't know I've hated like every Alice that I've read ever so and then we've got another interesting one the housemate I when this made the when this was in the first 20 nominated I was certain this was going to make top 10 cuz it had so many ratings right a sequel has come out to this I mean this had like five this had so many ratings and was such a high rating but like even then I mean obviously this is has a lot now but a year ago it had so many ratings and such a high rating and it didn't make the top 10 and I just wonder if the readership for this are the readership who vote I don't know so the sequel I mean let's go look at it [ __ ] H like it has 252,000 ratings and a 4.29 average rating but I'm still tentative to put it in my top 10 I don't trust her I think it will be nominated again but I'm still tentative to put it in my top 10 because it didn't make the top 10 last time like inexplicably when it should have done okay do you know what I'm going to do something controversial I'm going to put this in the top 10 for now like it has to surely the readers of it will have to be like oh we're outraged it didn't make the top 10 last time and make it get there this time surely like it was such a shock for me it's got 200 that's like the highest red that we have come across but for some it was the same last time and it didn't make the top 10 but I'm going to put it in there this time and we shall see how that goes okay okay I don't think we need to look much lower because any I mean uh Sarah peinan has had a book come out I just don't know I mean again Lisa jaw the family remains was not highly voted for but I think none of this is true will make it okay interesting let's go look let's actually look at my Reading Tracker I want to go through this is where I put oh age of Vice okay all right immediately this is where I put um all of my books I'm excited for that come out this year and the the way that they're color code if you're wondering about the color coding uh yellow is that I own it green is that I've read it and orange is that a publisher sent it to me so really I should read it quicker than I am anyways okie dokie age of Vice is one that I think has been really popular let's look at I mean that came out in January so it's had a long time to build up a readership oh oh oh interesting this was a book of the month pick which works in its favor but it's only got 23,000 ratings and a 3.62 average rating so not super high okay okay okay do you know what I'm going to put this in the top 20 for now but I don't know if I think it will it won't make the top 10 I don't think and I I reserve to I reserve the right to remove this one okay what else have I got on here that is a mystery thriller I don't think Janice halet will be nominated because it's not out in the US still I think or if it is it's only just come out oh the drift by CJ chuda I think that if it's nominated I think that might be nominated under Horror oh I've just had a thought of a book okay wait wait wait wait wait wait wait we have to discuss this one oh this is one that I've been thinking about Lots in relation to this okay I knew that was a book I was going to forget Holly by Stephen King this one's tricky under genre I mean these genres here are just um to my understanding still are just generated by what people shove it as okay so people tend to Shell Stephen King as more horror however the Holly Gibney series Mr Mercedes one the mystery thriller award Finders Keepers came second End of Watch won the mystery thriller award The Outsider won the mystery thriller award so everything bar I think if it bleeds was nominated under horror but I think that's like short stories and Holly's only in one of them everything else in this series has been nominated for the mystery thriller award and three of them have won it a little bit scared of Stephen King infiltrating this award much rather it says a horror but I think this should probably be in the mystery through category it's like a det she runs a detective agency don't read this synopsis too badly if you don't want to if you want to be spoiled for the Mr Mercedes Trilogy it's a detective story I think this should be nominated under mystery thriller I'm going to put it in there and I'm going to put it in the top 10 wait a minute I'm figuring this out I'm like like Scooby and Shaggy solving a mystery I will be so surprised if this is under the horror cuz I really I don't think it should be everything else in Holly's story as a character has been under the oh wait I put it on the wrong side no sorry I was kidding myself imagine Stephen King nominated and doesn't make the top 10 um I think I think it will and I think it'll make top 10 oh that's a bit scary though isn't it that's a bit scary cuz in it will probably win and listen I think I'll probably I I will be happy if I have to read this because I enjoyed to some extent the other Stephen Kings that I read when I read all the winners but um I just don't really like when Stephen King wins it's a bit boring in it you know it's a bit boring talking about your perance darling you know it's not very exciting see a king towin so we'll see we'll see if that's under horror but I think it should be under mystery thriller even though it's the say's horror as his first genre this this series from Stephen King is mystery thriller oh what lies in the woods probably will be nominated 3.98 was 75,000 I oh okay interesting interesting interesting came out in January this was another book of the month pick ooh I think this will make top 10 how many how many have I put in the top 10 already how many spots have we got left 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 nine [ __ ] okay I am kind of building my ideal top 10 cuz I am putting books in there that I am most excited to read I'm feeling pretty right about this the ones I think could make not make top 10 these three I think are the ones I mean I know that's crazy to say about how may secret but the housemate didn't make top 10 these three I think are the ones that are least likely to make top 10 but everything else here I think will unless they put Holly in Horror oh gosh okay right we're filling up oh I've just had a thought I've just had a thought I've just had a thought I don't even have this in my ring track C I think this I think this would have come out yeah so this came out last year but it's been successful this year so what about the sequal when does this come out okay it comes out in time to be nominated interesting oh everyone on this train is a suspect this one's tricky this one's tricky because it doesn't have long to my understanding the Goodreads Awards when was it last year it had to come out by November 15th 2022 so it only has a month to like build up a readership and maybe get nominated but things I mean like Brandon Sanderson brought out a book that came out on the last day that got nominated last year I think this will be nominated I don't think it will make it top 20 cuz it doesn't have long to build up a readership but I think this will be nominated to reflect the success that the first book has had this year I know by the way that you guys have all told me to read this I do want to read this series okay I know it's my kind of thing let's put her in top 20 but I don't think it will make top 10 we've only got one spot left in the top 10 that's like dangerous you in danger girl let's look I mentioned earlier let's just just like do a cursory check at the S is it Sarah panan or is it gri Hendrick that's come out with a book I think it's Sarah panan is it this one gone tonight yes 10,000 ratings 3.87 I feel like they're always nominated but I don't if it is nominated it won't make top 10 should I put it in there for now let's put it in there for now I think this like it's a but I mean they're famous as the duo I don't know let's put it in there for now and I can always take it out again okay I feel like we're looking all right so far I feel like I'm pretty spot on I mean I think I'm a genius I think I'm going to get this all right oh how can I forget the writing Retreat oh [ __ ] the writing Retreat could be nominated oh no it can't it can't right now it can't it's got a 3.44 a dra I'm not going to include it then that is so rude guys that's a five star if I've ever seen one three 3.44 okay right so now unless its rating was to go up dramatically by November which I don't think it will having been out since February I think it's probably found it's kind of aerating it won't be nominated I think that's the wrong choice that's a five star oh the Golden Spoon could be nominated I feel like this is the kind of book they like to throw in 3.5 oh I'm not going to put it on there it's skirting it's skirting the low rating I'm not going to put it on there then with 22,000 ratings I don't think that will get on there okay death of a book seller I feel like it's more of a UK release than a us one and usually they don't get nominated yeah no that's not getting nominated oh the Chateau I just read I feel like that's going to have a low rating again though 3.53 with 600 ratings yeah that's not going on although again this is the kind of book they like to throw on that will come like 20th in the voting but I'm not going to put on there yet maybe if I'm running out of room for ones that I think will make it oh sa Cosby has come out with one is that in that category all the Sinners bleed sheld as a mystery 4.32 with 22,000 ratings I think sa Cosby is usually nominated I think this will be their is it I don't think it's not right now it's not going to take my top 20 spot right now my top 10 my last top 10 spot right now Okay so we've got nine in the top we've got six at the bottom so I'm looking for four more here and one more here looking for five more books guys I may end up moving one of these up to here but I mean there's none none of these inspire me with top 10 nness right now oh The Last Word by Taylor Adams 3.78 oh oh okay I think this will be nominated it's been a one that a lot of people have been talking about this year do I think it will be top 10 I feel like whatever makes top 10 is going to be what book am I going to put oh yeah that will make top 10 now like we're this far down the list I haven't thought of it do you know what I mean I think it'll be nominated am I going to put it in top 10 no I'm not not right now but out of the ones I've got in the bottom 20 I think this or all siners B all the siners bleed are the ones that have the best chance of being in the top 10 cuz I feel like this is one that lot of people have been speaking about but it doesn't have a very high rating I do feel like the selection based on just Vibes I feel like it's looking quite good so far oh Sherie lepina Miss Sherie lapina oh Sher the Pina probably has to be nominated right 38,000 ratings I mean let's look at some of her previous books Let's do what we did with Ruth wear not a happy family did that make top 10 it would have been nominated but I mean it wasn't very well liked no okay didn't make top 10 but that wasn't well liked the end of her I feel like I haven't heard a few no okay um it could just not be nominated but it's Sher lepina you know what I mean I'm going to put it there for now that one's a tricky one that might not be nominated that might not be nominated but I just in my brain I'm like it's Sherie lepina you know what I mean oh what about I've never read from her but has Megan Miranda had a book that came out this year cuz maybe that would be nominated oh interesting interesting interesting 40,000 ratings which I feel like is the kind of median we're seeing for a lot of ones that I think would gen like definitely be nominated I think it would on it but it's got 3.57 that's skirting dangerously close for me to feel comfortable putting on the list I'm going to put it on there but I don't think it's going to make top 10 ah we are like I'm not putting anything in the top 10 I'm refusing to fill that last top 10 spot I can't do it my heart is saying no God guys this is getting tense we may have to start taking some off of here if I think there's other ones more likely to be nominated 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 7 8 nine they've each only got one more spot left okie dokie oh shoot murder in the family that could be my last top 10 spot wait what in my brain this has been so highly hyped I thought it would have more than 8,000 I mean I know it's only just come out in the US like a couple weeks ago but I feel like this has been so highly hyped oh okay I'm not putting that the list yet I'm not putting that the list okay Midnight is The Darkest Hour by Ashley winad I mean that's literally come out like yesterday like two days ago uh so we weren't have many ratings yet and it's only got three point I don't think that'll be um the last housewife I really thought was going to be nominated and it wasn't nominated okay let's look at some of these lists so if you guys remember I did a whole Vlog based off of this list this came out in June and it's the hit books of 2023 so far so let's look at what was in the mystery category so we've got that we've got that we've got that I have some questions for you 69,000 ratings 3.66 interesting this has been this at the start of the Year this came out in February this was super hyped especially in the UK it was like really pushed as like the mystery thr of the year but I have heard a lot of mixed things but it's got 69,000 ratings which will work in its favor I mean that's a lot that's a lot that's a lot that's a lot that's a lot what am I going to do it has to be nominated I'm not going to put top 10 cuz it's R it's rated low but it's a popularity contest at the end of the day people will vote for like one book if it's the only book they've read this could be the only book some people have read so that fills up our last our bottom 10 we just need one that I'm going to put in the top 10 apparently I still think something like murder in the family though could be like a surprise entry do you know what I mean anything else Kate Morton homecoming 43,000 ratings 4 I mean that's highly rated but I haven't heard anyone speak about that is it histo I mean I think that's more likely to be under historical no I feel like Kate Morton is more of a historical author I'm not including that anything else here Haren cin 50,000 oh this is getting difficult and the Bandit Queens I've heard a lot of people speak about 21,000 Haren cin Haren cin Haren cin you all right [ __ ] no I'm not all right everything just stressed me out at the moment see I don't know if har and Cobin has like the you know same pulling power as he they I don't know who Carl and cin is if I'm honest he once did you know like in the early 2000s or like but I mean his 2023 his 2020 release where did that come on the list oh [ __ ] I think I might have okay oh I hate it maybe I have to put this as my last top 10 okay we're going to put it in and then we'll have to start moving things around if there's one that I think will make it because there's some here gone tonight by Sarah peinan I think could be goners that is our top 20 just just just starting off okay but things could move out of here and things could move up I'm not sure about that making it's harling cin okay I'm not going to add either of these oh 44,000 I haven't I haven't heard people talk about that oh God God God God maybe that will be nominated maybe okay hang on let me look at some other lists and we've got this one discover the biggest mystery and threader trends of 2020 I mean this came out in February but it will have books that are coming out this year so these ones will will be ones that have come out this year I mean these have only got hundreds of ratings The Whispers that's from the author of the push there's too many th thr of mysteries let me explain with more I actually give up do you know what we need to look at we need to look at book of the month we need to look at book of the month I've decided we need to look at book of the month okay October when I'm dead I haven't heard anyone speak about that oh The Stranger upstairs I have heard a lot of people talking about that and I've heard a lot of people reading it [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] I mean that has only just come out no okay we're not putting it on there it's got a low rating and it's only just come out a couple weeks ago yes it has got a lot of ratings only having just come out like a week or two ago but it's got a low rating and the rating usually sips over time I think that I don't think it will be there I'm really this is this is tense um happiness Falls by Angie Kim it says literary fiction but I know that um the other book by Andrew Kim was nominated no I'm not going to put it on there [ __ ] okay we've got none of this is true okay that would definitely be nominated then July oh dark Corners by Megan Golding I should have thought about that dark Corners how many ratings has that got okay not a lot the maid's diary have any of my friends read this okay the ones I most considering putting on there at the moment are the maid's diary The Whispers I don't think I'm considering dark Corners I don't think I'm considering dark Corners moving on God this is tense she started it I haven't heard anyone talk about that but it probably will be nominated the last word okay the last word was a book of the month pick okay I think the last word is going going be nominated then okay I'm standing by the last word April Megan Miranda one okay that makes me think that I should keep Megan Miranda the Soulmate by Sally heworth I haven't heard time people talking about best book of the month you know what I mean oh for God's sake for God's sake 86,000 ratings that's just got to go on there then you're right just need a bit of space if that's okay yeah I could feel I could feel that that was going to have to be an addition as soon as I read it that's why I pulled that face I could feel right what are we doing what are we doing we're getting rid of Sarah peanin we're getting rid of Sarah peanin right let's bring her in let's get rid of you you're gone you're gone and let's put that bad boy in okay right okay but we still got a few that I'm debating putting in ah okay any other ones that need to be added February the writing Retreat okay too lowly rated age of viice in January what lies in the words we've got that okay and then we've got this list that they just published today bloody hell s with 51 of this year's coziest Mysteries now I think most of these like if we scroll down there'll be like a lot of like cozy cozies that I don't think be nor at but are there any Golden Spoon again mastering the art I've seen this around everywhere but it's only got 4,400 ratings but again like I said they always throw in a few that have got really low rating like low numbers of ratings you know okay I don't think any okay right right right right we got make a decision here the ones that I haven't put in yet that I am debating putting in are the maid's diary and The Whispers is there anything that I think should be taken out for them maybe the Sher leina maybe the sh maybe the Jillian mallister oh my God I feel sick okay I don't know if that feels right to me but okay like I feel like the push came second the year it was nominated I feel like that I feel like they're going to nominate the next okay all right I've made my decision feel like I'm an exu to judge on judge's houses like I've made my decision you're going home sweetie I've always wanted to use that I'm so glad I can use that video and you're going home [Music] sweetie you're going home sweetie okay the maid's diary is going in and just another missing person is coming out and The Whispers is coming in oky dokie I mean Alice in my in my dreams would go as well but I feel like Alice always tends to be on I'm just like it's going to come like 18th in the Voting is what I'm telling myself okie dokie I think that's it [ __ ] I think that's my prediction for the Goodreads mystery thrill Awards 2023 and I think that is my prediction for the top 10 I don't know how I feel about it freck okay I think that is my prediction now turns of what I'd like ideally I'd like the housemade secret not to be on there cuz then I'd have to read two books everything else that's a series like Holly I haven't read if it bleeds but I reckon I could read Holly without having read that nothing else in there is a series I mean obviously there's medic is but I've read that I'd love the last word to go up there because I really want to read the last word maybe that will I don't think that will happen I think if anything's going to go up there it's like the housemate the soulmate the housemate the soulmate but I think that's my final answer I'm so excited to watch Ashley's and see how different our predictions are but I think that is my f Lancer for top 10 and then the other 10 that are going to be nominated for the good reason this feels like a momentous moment and I feel like this has been a bit of a thever dream of a video it's going to be long as hell I'm sorry this was so much fun and I'm very intrigued to see how close my prediction ends up being to this um so let me know what you think of my predictions are there any books that I really should have included and have missed out and have been so stupid I'm sure there's one at least that should be in the top 10 that I haven't even put in that but I think for the most part I'm pretty solid with my prediction of this there's a few that could be taken out like everyone on this train is a suspect I don't think we'll get I think they'll be nominated in homage to everyone in this family has killed everyone in my family has killed someone but I'm I think I have got at least at least 10 I think at least 10 of these will be nominated and I think I may have got 15 I think there'll be some here that aren't nominated but I think I will have got 15 15 let me know what you think I've done this video was so much fun to do and I'm so excited to read the nominees for the good re mystery so that I mean I just feel like my whole purpose is leading up to that video now I just want to do it I'm so excited I love watching Goodreads Awards content is like my favorite I don't know why it's like my favorite content to watch and my favorite content to make so I love you guys let me know how you think I done you got into the video comment a mystery thriller Emoji a shocked face a stabby stab you know what

realized that you could back up stage of this instead of replaying this game like I don't how many times it is great yeah well I guess maybe you just didn't want to give me an advantage when I didn't back up my save so you're like oh I'm gonna replay the game because he's gonna get better at it what I just are you serious I just randomly died play I kind of went off the edge but I didn't fall at all and I could have recovered and wait but what wait well then what where why when who what why oh no I just want to rock bottom for some reason well you you do that while I continue to get snowmen oh man I have five socks off to get I forgot to look up a sock for you before this so I have no Iowa songs to get so don't worry but we're both equally as screw buddy did it did it I just okay I probably I went down that side of spongy down the side of spongeboob down the side of the sponge yeah okay topic I have half of the snowmen already really to be fair it's like the second half that's worse because you're like exploring trying to find them and you're like and you might die when doing it and it's not fun let's I probably should have done this as sandy yeah that's I'd always do a sunny because it's so much easier to recover if you mess something up well except porn if you could just bring me joy I don't worry about changing characters and then if possibly resetting so I don't think it would put I mean so because of that it wouldn't make you be a better test getting ahead of you okay I forgot the one at the top of the hill so that's five taking it I'm not one because I died oh okay now where are the remaining three this is the real question this is the yeah okay well I believe there's one this way somewhere yeah here's one six dang it now let me say I'm trying to think oh the memories are rushing back of playing this game feels good take a while oh maybe wrong I almost died good thing I didn't again it's kind of hard to explain that's like okay I'm a just picture yourself like going off the side of a Ledge quickly not going down yet I just it just randomly kills me as soon as I only touched the side of the map I just like that no it isn't as bad as I remember being I wonder why shuttle vets this is bad news for me no it's just like I quit and then you just leave the race race is done well I guess I win question mark yeah I would just destroy my freakin TV in the background terrible news for everybody yeah oh by the way um today is the day before the day before Christmas and I just had a Christmas miracle before this recording because I think I explained in the first episode that nor from my ps2 - normally like play games properly without having disc read errors which way should I go is try this way I got all eight snowmen you suck oh crap unless I die unless I die please don't die that time dah dah dah but right now normally I have to have all of my like ninth grade school books stacked on top of my playstation to put in order for it to work I got the Snowman sock it's just the sock that's the most frustrating part about it first try I wish I had like a Super Smash Brothers taunt I could do right now show me your moon yes well I was at my friend's house the other day and we played WWE 13 on Xbox 360 I'm not a WWE fan but the games are actually hilarious because a you can make custom characters which look ridiculous and be like on air every animation and like every it like like it's just like the game is clearly it clearly has problems but it's just a um it's entertaining because of those problems you know yeah so it's like it's really funny so on this um there's this one there's like all of the taunts in the game or halay so there's one where this is where you can make it see your guy just like slowly raises his arms with no sound effect it's just like I'm raising my arms yeah I did it yeah Mountain here we go oh yeah I'm at six snowman that won't stop okay Alex Evans your time challenge broseph good luck that was a very freakin hard it is okay I'm not six snowmen and I'm at the bottom of the slide so I've know you're not over the other two are oh I missed the left sock thing dang it the left sock thing like right at the beginning you know what I'm talking about oh yeah I know what you're saying noticing and I'll just say I'm being and we just sayin don't steal I know what you're super saying I should I think I might be okay with socks I mean not socks snowman I think I kind of know what lost you are sweet I'm here clearly you already have one sock above me in like not counting snowmen and I'm trying to figure out which sock that is or where it would be did you do all the hub stuff and no well I mean I got a sock in the okay I died I got I got the sock in the hub like underneath the bridge for the second one yeah but I didn't get any other so if there's another sock in the hub and that's the one probably uh III dodo I don't river had caught chariots near me oh my god I died like in two seconds it was so bad it was like the worst thing to see it's the bratwurst name mm-hmm actually I prefer not worse bratwursts seven snowmen then I think the last Norman's out the top tower near the beginning of the esophagus of the resistors we're all dying and I think I'll be okay maybe question mark period exclamation point ellipses I'm a I'm going I'm going oh wait I think I needed sandy for one of the socks in this damn it I did yeah I think I shouldn't have her for - don't you to die here no I refuse oh yeah I need candy okay now I know I'll get it later yep okay I'm telling one that requires the lasso swinging I know that one hmm and then yeah okay how's your poster tough childhood um it's going okay I mean I died a few times already but okay I was going the secret side hole put the secret side whole freaking purple shiny object that I think made me skip a sock but I got it because I was gonna die if I didn't get it now they said there's a snowman up here about think there it is um are you talking about the end of the race because there's one like straight ahead below and then there's one to the far left cat whoo there's a sock I didn't know it was here on top of other tubes I'm pretty sure just make sure I got that one already there's no I know it yeah it's exactly what you're talking about to you yeah I always think there's like a snowman there as well but ma'am I'm just thinking out of the sock I guess I'm just gonna kind of explore this course very slowly with Sandy so I don't miss assuming because I do will not want to build us new men okay the way is the greatest I do not want to do this new man oh crap I that at the end of the race okay well it was probably oh well whatever checkpoint I'll just go and do this now so it was probably very aggravating the watch at least my perspective so I'm just kind of going up the slide very slowly or sandy okay I don't see ass men pneumatics it's probably not where you think it is no I think it is you want explosion sent me backwards in an almost female village okay that's actually I think it's at the beginning of the race wait just one latest room which snowman have you gotten like explaining the locations I'm helpful banana I don't even know that I have seven so that I don't think there's a way out remember all oh that's the stupidest debt from the planet okay whatever you know what whatever it doesn't matter I don't care man I might oh yeah I'm only down one underwear but it might be like last time when I get down to just one um just barely hanging on to life maybe we'll see what happens looking further snowman that was my song thank you thank you that's Christmas solo effort when he's not working on fire at the new fire crotch okay I got it collected over at the ball on the side okay it was I have to pretty much a very top of the soil I guess otherwise yes so I just got to not die which is kind of difficult for me sometimes I die yeah oh he did it to me too yeah but just because I did it to you doesn't you could do it to be yeah whew Fritz jumped off a cliff would you do it - probably I mean if I told some of this house like yeah but you know if I had a bungee cord and a few other things maybe parachute or fellow guys even a bottle really time challenge yeah you didn't know that I didn't remember that well I'm just ox is sandy now crew sure because Sandy's are hackers with their frickin last one that make you feel slower because if you stay on the slide you move faster row to row man I don't know what happens if you get all the snow man and since the rewards at the bottom and then you die it's a gets your heart over does it disappear I really up that is a very unfortunately my time no I'm just kidding no I'm okay yeah I've seemed like the most like not genuine to be out I'm told I'm a very very bad liar you are that kind yes is that I press the circle button and she's not grass she's not last someone her lasso silly sang and silly Matt for playing on the inferior PlayStation I'm not too health come on PlayStation is some pretty awesome games III love I'm just bogeyed yeah the ps3 I agree is like probably is the worst system of the previous generation I know everyone's gonna hate me for saying that but hey I absolutely despise that controller and me in terms of like games that are worth getting for the system like most happily PlayStation games that you would get are already on the system the only game I can think of are like the Uncharted games and The Last of Us and the Last of Us you can get on ps4 which I agree is at it better than the Xbox one so Xbox Oxbow well I got seven socks I think the only socks I'm missing her in the last slide and I think I just barely have enough shiny objects to go into this place well freakin not even working how many socks do I had I've six on one sock short somewhere we actually only have like 13 more socks off to get in the game or something like that I think oh yeah it's van not much it's very not much I'm not looking forward to doing this time challenge would you be the it no I'm doing I'm getting socks to Sandy at the moment so since I failed the time challenge go get sake sandy I think those thunder tikis I just passed lead to something I just don't remember okay so we're not connect again somehow I mean kind of I should not gonna tell you know I want to start that over because I mean I am one spatula ahead of you at most because I got already got this stuff at the bottom of the slide like the thing ah yeah this is true this is very true and I'm about to be one sock ahead of you if I do this right thank you let's hope long enough took me three tries to just grab onto the freaking hook that you need us and in order to get this sock over here Sony's hook grabbing skills are weird sometimes oh yeah tricking the game it must be run tactics did you pass those fun dirty keys yet that you see it towards the beginning of the race maybe I'm just trying to remember those lead to something or not Thunder key keys when you goes one part where you just have to turn the sharp right and there's thunder Tiki straight ahead I have the memory span of a snail so I might have done that and you only even had many issues with it and I just want to remember so I don't know well then I'm never having a lot of shows with this time trial so I get that socks off to do that when I I don't know there is a sock down look up I died great great fantastic down there damn it gosh nerds it's uh huh this is my favorite part of the slide the part of the slide that I normally don't have to do I believe in you bad you can do it isn't it proud of you oh all right probably we'll have time to try it one more time let's go let's go do how close are you to being the time child did you like lose a long long time or now I'm going down the high to say I need to get socks but I'm I think I missed like two of the three that are probably in this slide so um I'll get them this spongebob it looks like it could be wrong but I'm pretty sure there's three socks on this yeah that's why I only have three left again in this level yeah see I think one of the socks is in this maze at the end but at the same time I already found two locations where a sock probably would be apprecia less two socks that used sandy to get like you know that swing hook I'm pretty sure there's two socks up there no I don't think so I could be wrong but you get one when you first jump up there with the swing hook but I think if you keep going now there's only one going but you look my eyeball yes you do this good job observation yeah I did it oh you just sounded like have you ever played bomberman hero unintended I have nuts you should try it and it's on Virtual Console but the bomber man's voice is such like a little kid voice until when you say yeah I did it it sounds exactly like one derivative it's that's layers I'm going to tell you why I am bummer man dun dun dun that's why I'm bombing at this game okay why we're just time for me today I want to challenge and try and find two socks I hope I died and then if I don't do it this run then I'm gonna go do like the above-ground the out the lobby stuff so that way I can you do something for the next two minutes actually this race will take two minutes so it'll perfect around with the end of the episodes a soul wood and trends race one more time this time I'm gonna win this time time I say time or it makes sense trust me see I think those Thunder tikis lead to something but at the same time I don't want to do it okay I've been looking for this on dirty keys and I am not seeing it no it's a head it's linked I don't remember I'll tell you where they are if I see them but I might have already passed because that memories baby I hit the champion I just went right through it okay I should I didn't go right through it I like slid me off of it for something okay this time I'm gonna stay on this even though it will a taking that jump will help me with the time challenge I'm pretty sure there's a soccer right here yep got it so now I'm at risk of losing in time challenge but I got a free sock so yay where was the song I'm not telling you you figure it out at your own Chris will be our judge Varella thousand I thought that tricky with my tricks key hobbitses skills nope nothing today yeah yes although that potato very well might die today let the potato die potato not today all right let's go Boulder snow Boulder social Builder okay please be a sock like right here somewhere no okay this is a waste of time then great hey let's try okay fine I'm not going to try that way you know what fine oh no whoa okay those I'm very well might fail this just because I took some long way up oh that's my timer that is oh that is my that is my timer I need to beat the race seven six five four I did it okay I gotta turn off this you can yeah just let me die or something oh good I love that timer I'm so glad I got the timer now holy crap okay I don't know Larry lobster for my reward and then we'll in the episode we all know what the wrong way crap wait why do you have three seconds that was so weird he sounded like he sounded like a southerner for saying that thank you for beating my best I'm crazy not like a southerner but you know what I mean holy crap I'm gonna really I picked the race with 21 seconds to spare I died at the end of the slide I don't know what this means did it still say you beat the race I think so it'll a lobster see what happens I gotta beat everything at the ball on the slide I hope I have enough time for this yeah you don't technically but we'll let I'll let you do it yes I'm gonna go back to exiting until okay um I don't know where that last sock is but I can look it up for next steps yeah that's probably someone should start doing again looking up where things are so I'm just wandering around pointlessly yeah do your research you kids screw all these freaking robots down here collect special oh man if I don't get the sock I mean the blade special that is gonna be terrible terrible news yeah okay I'm trying to remember the cheap way to do this spatula instead of going like the full way they're in it it was a cheap way to do this I'm just trying to remember yes I figured it out that was very easy the spatula family yes oh wait no no that's just part it that's just the normal way to get up that's just the cheap way to get up there I'm figured out the cheap way to actually beat it there is a cheap way to beat this so don't no no no no no oh no boom well nope okay whatever I don't care I give up where's it where's the little cheater bit on where there's the bus stop I know there's a cheap way to beat that spatula without having to do the whole Hulk swinging but I don't know what it is so yeah when you look away from a down angle you see like these two giant eyes you're like poking out in front of them it's pretty good nice look at you are you ready I mean you get this spatula yeah I got some lady he's pretty great I'm kind of surprised let me take it but it was great good okay just give me give me like a few seconds what no I said a few seconds not just one one few so you tell something like that but anyway now we should end the episode thank you all so much for watching and enjoying and stuff also check out Matt

DbVwjvYz6yk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbVwjvYz6yk | Thirteenth: Greatest of Centuries | James Joseph Walsh | Middle Ages/Middle History | 6/12 | chapter 11 of the 13th greatest of centuries by James Walsh this LibriVox recording is in the public domain chapter 11 maestra singers many singers through years troubadours it would be a supreme mistake to think because the idea of literature in the 13th century is usually associated with the arthur legends the Nibelungen and dante that all of the literary content of the century was inevitably serious in character are always epical in form as a matter of fact the soul of wit and humor had entered into the body social as we shall see and subsequent chapters and the spirit of gaiety and the light-hearted admiration for nature found as frequent expression as at any time in history with these as always in literary history there came outbursts of love in lyric strains that were not destined to die while the poets of South Germany and of Italy sang of love that was of the loftiest description never mingled with anything of the merely sensual their tuneful trifles are quite as satisfying to the modern ear in both sense and sound as any of the more elaborate vaz dissociate a of the modern times the German poets particularly did not hesitate to emphasize the fact that sensuality had no part in my knee they're pretty term for love and yet they sang with all the natural grace and fervent rapture of the Grecian poets of the old pagan times worshipping at the shrines of fleshly goddesses are singing to the frail beauties of an unmarried nothing in the history of literature is better proof that ideal love can unmixed with anything sensual inspire lyric outbursts of preme and enduring beauty than the poets of the many singers and some of the French and Italian troubadours of this period it is easier to understand Dante's position in this matter after reading the poems of his predecessors in the 13th century for this feeling of a lofty character of the love they sang was not in spite of what is sometimes said confined only to the Germans though as is well known from time immemorial the Teutonic feeling toward woman was bi-racial influence of higher character than that of the southern nations as mr. HJ chatter says in the introduction to his troubadours of dante there came a gradual change over the mind of the troubadour about the beginning of the 13th century and quote seeing that love was the inspiring force to good deeds close quote the later troubadours gradually dissociated their love from the object which had aroused it among them quote as among the many singers love is no longer sexual passion it is rather the motive to great works to self surrender to the winning and honorable name as courtier and poet close quote mr. chatter then quotes the well-known lines from bernard de vente door one of the troubadours to whom Dante refers and whose works Dante seems to have read with a special attention since their poems contain similar errors of mythology quote for indeed I know of no more subtle passion under heaven than is the maiden passion for a maid not only to keep down the base in man but teach high thought and amiable words and courtliness and the desire of Fame and love of truth and all that makes a man close quote a sentiment surely that will be considered as true now as it ever was be the time the thirteenth century our earlier or later and that represents the best solution of social problems that has ever been put forward nature's own panacea for ills that other remedies at best only palliate in the early 19th century Carlyle said of this period what we may well repeat here quote we shall suppose that this literary period is partially known to all readers let each recall whatever he has learned our figures regarding it represent to himself that brave young heyday of chivalry and minstrel r-e when a stern Barbarossa a stern Lionheart sang serviettes and with the hand that would wield the sword & scepter twined the melodious strings when Knights errant tilted and lady's eyes rained bright influences and suddenly as a sunrise the whole earth had grown vocal and musical then truly was the time of singing come for princes and Pilots emperors and Squires the wise and the simple men women and children all sang and rhymed are delighted in hearing it done it was a universal noise of song as if the spring of manhood had arrived and warbling from every spray not indeed without infinite twitterings also which accept their gladness had no music were bidding it welcome close quote this is the key note of the century song blithesome and gay is the birds solomon harmonious as the organ tones that occurred so well with the great Latin hymns everywhere song quote believers close quote says tae ik the great collector of 13th century poetry quote sang of faith lovers of love Knights described Knightly actions and battles and loving believing Knights were their chief audience the spring Beauty Gaiety were objects that could never tire great duels and deeds of arms carried away every hearer the more surely the stronger they were painted and as the pillars and dome of the church encircle the flock so did religion as the highest in circle poetry and reality and every heart in equal love humbled itself before her close quote the names of the maestro singers are well known to musical lovers at least because of the music drama of that name and the famous War of the Wartburg the most familiar of all of them is doubtless Walter Vonda Vogel weald who when he was asked where he found the tuneful melodies for his songs said that he learned them from the birds those who recall longfellows pretty ballad with regard to Walter and his leaving all his substance to feed the birds over his grave near Nuremberg Minister towers will not find it surprising that this Meister singers poetry breathes the deepest love of nature and that there is in it a lyric quality of joy in the things of nature that we are apt to think of as modern until we find over and over again in these bards that the spirit of the woods and of the fields and of the springtime mint does much for them as for any follower of the Wordsworth school of poetry and the most conscious after time this from Walter with regard to the may will serve to illustrate very well this phase of his work quote gentle may thou shalt rest fairly gifts a farm and near Clovis all the woods so rarely and the meadows here or the heath new colors glow flowers and clover on the plain merry rivals strive a mane which can fastest grow lady parked me from my sadness love me while tis May mine is but a borrowed gladness if thou frowned alway look around and smile anew all the world is glad and free let a little joy from thee fall to my lot too close quote Walter could be on occasion however as serious as any of the moisture singers and is especially known for his religious poems it is not surprising that anyone who set woman on so high a pedestal as did Walter should have written beautiful poems to the Blessed Virgin he was the first so it is said to express the sentiment quote woman god bless her by that name for it is a far nobler name than lady close quote occasionally he can be seriously didactic and he is not hesitated even to express some sentiments with regard to methods of education among other things he discusses the question as to whether children should be whipped or not in the process of education and curiously enough takes the very modern view that whipping is always a mistake in this of course he disagrees with all the practical educators of his time who considered the rod the most effective instrument for the education of children and strictly followed the scriptural injunction about sparing the rod and spoiling the child Walter's opinion is for that reason all the more interesting quote children with rod ruling tis the worst of schooling who is honor made to know him a word seems as a blow close quote the birds were always a favorite subject for poetic inspiration on the part of the many singers bird music wrapped poetic Souls into ecstasy's in which the passage of time was utterly unnoticed it is from the 13th century that comes the beautiful legend with or to the monk who having wondered how time could be kept from dragging in heaven was permitted to listen to the song of a bird one day in the forest and when he awoke from his rapture and went back to his convent found that a hundred years had passed that all the monks of his acquaintance were dead and while his name was found on the rolls of the monastery after it there was a note that he had disappeared one day and had never been heard of afterwards almost in the same tenor as this is a pretty song of deep Marv on Iced written at the beginning of the thirteenth century and which was a type of charming songs that were to be so characteristic of the times quote they are sat upon the linden tree a bird and sung it's train so sweet it's song that as I heard my heart went back again it went to one remembered spot it saw the Rose tree grow and thought again the thoughts of love their cherished long go a thousand years it seems to me since by my fair ice eight yet thus to be a stranger long is not my choice but fate since then I have not seen the flowers nor heard the birds sweet song my joys have all too briefly passed my griefs been all too long close quote Hartman Vaughn away was a contemporary of Walter's and is best known for his romantic stories it is rather curiously interesting to find that one of the old chroniclers considers it a great mark of distinction that though Hartman was a knight he was able to read and write whatever he found written in books it must not be forgotten however that not all of these poets could read and write and that indeed so distinguished a literary man as a Wolfram von Eschenbach the author of Percival the story unwished vogner founded his opera Parsifal could neither read nor write he had developed a very wonderful memory and was able to store faithfully his poems in the course of their composition so that he was above the need of pen and paper Hartman is most famous for having written the story of poor Henry which Longfellow has chosen so effectively for his golden legend Hartman's appreciation of women can be judged from the following lines which accord her an equal share in her Lord's glory because of her sufferings in prayer at home quote glory be unto her whose word sends her dear Lord to bitter fight although he caught hers by his sword she to the praise has equal right he with the sword in battle she at home with prayer both when the victory and both the glory share close quote occasionally one finds as we have said among the little songs of the many singers of the time such cheerful trifles as could be included very appropriately in a modern collection of vad as the associate a are as might even serve as a love message on a modern valentine or a Christmas card the surprise of finding such a thing at such a time will justify the quotation of one of them from brother Werner who owes his title of brother not to his membership in any religious order very probably but to the fact that he belonged to the Brotherhood of the poets of the time quote since creation I was thine now for ever thou art mine I have shut the fast in my heart at last I have dropped the key in an unknown sea for ever must thou my prisoner be close quote Wolfram von Eschenbach was the chief of a group of poets who with the close of the 12th and beginning of the 13th centuries gathered about the Landgraf Herrmann of Thuringian in his court at Ortberg at the foot of which lies eisenach in the present grand duchy of sucks lamar they shaped tales of knightly adventure blended with reflection spiritual suggestion and a grace of verse that represented the best culture of the court and did not address his self immediately to the people Wolfram was a younger son of one of the lower noble Bavarian families settled at Eisenbach nine miles from al Spock in middle Franconia he had a poor little home of his own Villa den Berghe but went abroad to seek adventures as a knight and tell adventures as poet welcome to great lords and most welcome to the lavish friends of poets hermann of Thuringian at whose court at the fort barrier main twenty years from eleven ninety five to twelve fifteen in which latter year his palace of all was finished from some passages in his poem it may safely be inferred that he was happily married and had children the Landgraf Herrmann died in 1216 and was succeeded by Ludwig husband of Saint Elizabeth we cannot ascribe to English writers alone the spiritualizing of the Grail legends when there is Wolfram's possible drawing from the same cycle of myths a noble poem of the striving to bind earthy knighthood to the ever living God while Gwaine type of the earthly night winds great praise in love and chivalry possible Percival finds his way on from childhood up through humble searchings of the spirit till he is ruler in the kingdom of the soul where he designs that Lohengrin his eldest son shall be his successor while cordis his younger son has rule over his earthly possessions how beautifully the many singers could enter into the spirit of nature and at the same time how much the spirit of spring has always been prone to appeal to poetic sensibilities may be judged from the following song of konrad of Kirchberg which is translated very closely and in the same meter as the original old high german poem it is very evident that none of the spirit of spring was lost on this poet of the olden time nor on the other hand that any possibility of poetic expression was missed by him there is a music in the lilt of the verse 'let's eminently suggestive of the lyric effect that the new birth of things had on the poet himself and that he wished to convey to his readers of this however everyone must judge for himself and so we give the poem as it may be found in Roscoe's edition of sis Monday's literature of the south of Europe quote may sweet may again is come may that freeze the land from gloom up then children we will go where the blooming roses grow in a joyful company we the bursting flowers will see up your festival dress prepare where gay hearts are meeting there may have pleasures most inviting heart and sight and ear delighting listen to the birds sweet song hark how soft it floats along courtly Dame's our pleasures a share never saw I may so fare there for dancing will be go youths rejoice the florets blow Cee join the chorus Cade hail this merry merry may close quote at least as beautiful in their tributes to the lady loves and their lyric descriptions of the beauties of spring were the troubadours whose tuneful trifles sometimes deserving much more serious consideration than the application of such a term to them would seem to demand have come down to us through the centuries one of the best-known of ease is arnaud de marvel who was born in very humble circumstances but who succeeded in raising himself by his poetic genius to be the companion of ruling princes and the friend of the high nobility among the provincials he has been called the great master of love though this is a name which pet rock reserves especially for our Nardo Daniel while he calls marvel the less famous of the or nods an example of his work as the poet of love that is typical of what is usually considered to have been the favorite mode of the troubadour poems runs as follows quote all I behold recalls the memory of her I love the freshness of the hour the enameled feels the many-colored flower speaking of her move me to melody had not the poets with their courtly phrase saluted many affair of meaner worth I could not now have rendered thee the praise so justly do of fairest of the earth to name the thus has been to speak by name and waken or thy cheek the blush of modest chain close quote an example of a love of nature which characterizes some of our Marvel's work will serve to show how thoroughly he entered into the spirit of the springtime and how much all the sights and sounds of nature found an echo in his poetic spirit the translation of this as of the preceding specimen from an ode is taken from the English edition of the historical view of the literature of the south of Europe by sis Bondi and this translation we owe to Thomas Roscoe the well-known author of the life of Lorenzo the Magnificent who considering that says Mundi does not furnish enough of specimen of this troubadour poet inserts the following verses for the translation of which he acknowledges himself indebted to the kindness of friends a modest concealment doubtless of his own work quote oh how sweet the breeze of April breathing soft as May draws near while through nights of tranquil beauty songs of gladness meet the air every bird his well-known language uttering in the mornings pride reveling in joy and gladness by his happy partner's side when around me all is smiling when to life the young birds of spring thoughts of love I cannot hinder come my heart inspiring nature habit both inclined me in such joy to bear my part with such sounds of bliss around me could I wear a saddened heart close wrote his description of his ladylove is another example of his worship of nature in a different strain which serves to show that a lover's exaggeration of the qualities of his lady is not a modern development of LaBelle pacion quote fairer than the far-famed Helen lovelier than the flower it's gay snow white teeth and lips truth-telling heart as open as the day golden hair and fresh bright roses heaven who formed a thing so fair knows that never yet another lived who can with thee compare close quote a single stanza from a love song by bertrand des borne will show better than any amount of critical appreciation how beautifully he can treat the more serious side of love while the troubadours are usually said to have sung their love strains in less serious vain and and their German brother poets of the north this has the ring of tenderness and truth about it and yet is not in these qualities very different from others of his songs that are well known the translation we have chosen is that made by Rosco who has rendered a number of the songs of the troubadour into English verse that presents an excellent equivalent of the original Bertrand is insisting with his ladylove that she must not listen to the rumors she may hear from others with regard to his faithfulness quote I cannot hide from thee how much I fear the whispers breathed by flatterers in thine ear against my faith but turn not o I pray that hearts so true so faithful so sincere so humble and so frank to me so dear o lady turned it not from me away at times one is surprised to find pretty tributes to nature even in the midst of songs that are devoted to war the two things that were nearest the hearts of these troubadour poets were war and their lady loves but the beauties of nature became mixed up not only with their love songs but also with their battle hymns or at least with their ardent descriptions of military preparations and the glories of war an excellent example of this is to be found in the following stanza written by William of st. Gregory a troubadour who was best known for his songs of war rather than of tenderness quote the beautiful spraying delights me well when flowers and leaves are growing and it pleases my heart to hear the swell of the birds sweet chorus flowing in the echoing wood and I love to say all scattered around pavilions and tents on Marshall ground and my spirit finds it good to see on the level plains beyond gay nights as deeds caparison close quote occasionally the troubadours indulge in religious poetry though not usually of a mystical or profoundly devotional character even the famous perils who was so well known for his love songs sometimes wandered into religious poetry that was not unworthy to be placed beside his lyric effusions of other topics Parolles is best known perhaps for his lamentations over king richard the lionheart see fate for he had been with that monarch on the crusade and like most of the troubadours who went with the army drank in deep admiration for the poetic king after his visit to the holy land on this occasion one stanza of his song and memory of that visit runs as follows quote I have seen the Jordan River I have seen the holy grave Lord to thee my thanks I render for the joys thy goodness gave showing to my raptured sight the spot where on bout sauced the light vessel good and favoring breezes pilot trusty soon shall we once more see the towers of Marseilles rising or the briny sea farewell acre farewell all of temple or of hospital now alas the world's decaying when shall be once more behold Kings like lion hearted Richard Frances monarch stout and bold close quote end of chapter 11 chapter 12 of the 13th greatest of centuries by James Walsh this LibriVox recording is in the public domain chapter 12 great Latin hymns and church music one of the most precious bequests of the 13th century to all the succeeding centuries is undoubtedly the great Latin hymns these sublime religious poems comparable only to the Hebrew Psalms for their wondrous expression of the awe and devotion of religious feeling present the beginnings of rhymed poetry yet they have been acclaimed by competent modern critics as among the greatest poems that ever came from the mind of men they come to us from this period and were composed most of them at least during the 13th century itself a few shortly before it though all of them received during this century the stamp of ecclesiastical and popular approval which made them for many centuries afterward the principal medium of the expression of congregational devotion and the exemplar and incentive for vernacular poetry it is from these latter stand points that they deserve the attention of all students of literature quite apart from their significance as great expressions of a mind of these wondrous generations these Latin hymns have sometimes been spoken of with perhaps a certain degree of contempt as rhymed Latin poetry as if the use of rhyme in conjunction with Latin somehow lowered the dignity of the grand old tongue in which Cicero wrote his graceful periods and Horace saying his tune followed as a matter of fact far from detracting from the beauties of Latin expression these hymns have added new laurels to the glory of a language and have shown the wonderful possibilities of the Rowman speech in the hands of generations long after the Classical period if they served no other purpose than to demonstrate beyond cavil how profoundly the scholars of this generation succeeded in possessing themselves of the genius of the Latin language they would serve to contradict the foolish critics who talk of the education of the period as superficial or as negligent of everything but scholastic philosophy and theology at least one distinguished philosopher fessor FA March who has now for the better part of half a century occupy the chair of comparative philology at Lafayette College does not hesitate to say that the Latin hymns represent an expression of the genius of the Latin people and language more characteristic than the classical poetry even of the golden or silver ages quote he says quote these hymns were the first original poetry of the people in the Latin language el us perhaps those Latin critics may be right who think they find in Livy a prose rendering of earlier ballads the so called classical poetry was an echo of Greece both in substance and inform the matters and meters were both imitated and the poems were composed for the lovers of Grecian art in the Roman Court it did not spring from the people but the Christian hymns were proper folk poetry the Bible of the people their Homeric poems their making was not so much speech as action they were in substance festive prayers the simplest rhythmic offering of thanks and praise to the giver of light and of rest both natural and spiritual at morning and evening and at other seasons suited to the remembrance and rhythmical rehearsal of the truths of the Bible close quote professor marches opinion has been echoed by many another enthusiastic student of these wonderful hymns it is only those who do not know them who fail to grow enthusiastic about them this of itself would stamp these great poems as worthy of careful study there is however an additional reason for modern interest in them these hymns were sung by the whole congregation at many services that they attended in the medieval period in this regard it seems well to recall that it was the custom to go to church much oftener than at present besides the Sundays there were many holy days of obligation that is religious festivals on which attendance at church was obligatory and in addition a certain number of days of devotion on which because of special reverence for some particular saint are in celebration of some event in the life of the Lord or his Saints the people of special parts of the country found themselves drawn to attendance on church services it seems probable that instead of these 60 or so times a year that is now obligatory people went to church during the 13th century more than a hundred times in the year twice a week then at least there was the uplifting cultural influence of this congregational singing of wonderful hymns that are among the greatest poems ever written and that belonged to literature of the very highest order the educational value of such intimate contact with what is best in literary expression could scarcely fail to have a distinct effect upon the people it is idle to say that the hymns being in Latin they were not understood since the language of them was closed akin to the spoken tones the subjects were eminently familiar mysteries of religion and constant repetition and frequent explanation must have led to a very general comprehension even by the least educated classes for anyone with any pretence to education they must have been easy to understand since Latin was practically a universal language it is not always realized by the students whose interests have been mainly confined to modern literature in what estimation these Latin hymns have been held by those who are in the best position to be able to judge critically of their value as poetry take for example the Diaz ear a confessedly the greatest of them and it will be found that many of the great poets and literary men of the 19th century have counted it among their favorite poems such men as Goethe Friedrich and Auguste Slagle Scott Milt Millman and Archbishop trench were enthusiastic in its praise while such geniuses as Dryden Johnston and Jeremy Taylor and the musicians Mozart and Haydn avowed supreme admiration for it herder fit and Auguste Slagel besides Crenshaw Drummond Roscommon trench and Macaulay gave the proof of their appreciation of the great 13th century him by devoting themselves to making translations of it and Goethe's use of it in Faust and Scots in the lay of the last minstrel show how much poets whose sympathies were not involved in its religious aspects were caught by its a literary and aesthetic merit in very recent times the Latin hymns have been coming more to their own again and such distinguished critics as Professor Henry Morley and professor George Saints Barre have not hesitated to express their critical appreciation of these hymns as great literature professor Sainsbury says in his volume of the 13th century literature quote it will be more convenient to postponed to a later chapter of this volume a consideration of the exact way in which latin sacred poetry affected the prose ad of the vernacular but it is well here to point out that almost all the finest and most famous examples of the medieval hymns with perhaps the sole exception of the Vedas on taste to date from the 12th and 13th centuries ours that is from this period are the stately rhythms of Adam of st. Victor and the softer ones of st. Bernard the greater it was at this time that Jacopo need a toady in the intervals of his eccentric vernacular exercises was inspired to write the Stabat Mater from this time comes that glorious desiccant of Bernard of more lay in which the more it's famous and very elegant English paraphrase is read beside it Jerusalem the golden the more does the greatness and the beauty of the original appear and from this time comes the greatest of all hymns and one of the greatest of all poems the Dia's Irae there have been attempts more than one of them to make out that the Dia's array is no such wonderful thing after all attempts which are perhaps the extreme examples of that cheap and despicable paradox which thinks to escape the charge of blind docility by the affectation of heterodox independence the judgment of the greatest and not always the most pious men of letters of modern times may confirm those who are uncomfortable without authority in a different opinion fortunately there is not likely ever to be lack of those who authority are no authority in youth and an age after much reading and without much in all time of their tribulation and in all time of their wealth will hold these wonderful triplets be they Thomas of Solano's or another's as nearly or quite the most perfect wedding of sound to sense that they know close quote this seems almost the limit of praise but Professor Saints Barry can say even more than this quote it would be possible indeed to illustrate a complete dissertation on the methods of expression in series poetry from the fifty-one lines of the da's array rhyme alliteration dents and adjustment of vowel and consonant values all these things receive perfect expression in it or at least in the first 13 stanzas for the last four are a little inferior it is quite astonishing to reflect upon the careful art or the felicitous accident of such a line as to balmy rooms bhajans so noon with the thought of the Chao Chi falling in each instance in a different vowel and still more of the continuous sequence of five stanzas from judex ergo to none seat Casas in which not a word could be displaced or replaced by another without loss the climax of verbal harmony corresponding to and expressing religious passion and religious awe is reached in the last cuarón's mais c'est de stijl ocess radiometry chruch impasses tanto slob or

could say that any effective poetry was as far as sound goes unattainable though few have hoped to equal it and perhaps no one except Dante and Shakespeare has fully done so close quote higher praise than this could scarcely be given and it comes from an acknowledged authority whose interests are moreover in secular rather than religious literature and who's enthusiastic praise is therefore all

vowel essences chosen in striking adaptation to the sense all combining to produce an overwhelming effect as if we heard the final crash of the universe the commotion of the opening graves the trumpet of the archangel summoning the quick and the dead and saw the king of tremendous majesty seated on the throne of justice and of mercy ready to dispense everlasting life and everlasting whoa close quote Neil says of Thomas cornices great hymn the pan J lingua quote this hymn contests the second place among those of the Western Church with the Vexilar aegis the Stabat Mater the yaizu stuccis memoria the odd Regina's odd need apes' the odd super naam and one or two others leaving the ds8 a in its unapproachable glory thus the furnishing another supreme testimony to the hymn we have been discussing which indeed only needs to be read to be appreciated since it will inevitably tempt to successive readings and these bring with them ever and ever increasing admiration showing in this more than in any other way that it is a work of sublime genius with regard to rhyme particularly the triumph of art and the influence of the Latin hymns is undoubted this latest beauty of poetry reached its perfection of expression in the Latin hymns it is rather curious to trace its gradual development it constitutes the only feature of literature which apparently did not come to us from the east the earlier specimens of poetry of which we know anything among the Oriental nations other than the Hebrews are beautiful examples of the possibilities of rhythm and the beginnings of metre as poetry goes westward metre becomes as important as rhythm in poetry and these two qualities differentiated it from prose both of these literary modes however are Eastern in origin ryeom comes from the distant west and seems to have originated in the alliteration invented by the Celtic bards the vowel assonance was after a time completed by the addition of con sentinel assonance and then the invention of rhyme was completed the first fully rhymed hymns seemed to have been written by the Irish monks and carried over to the continent by them on their Christianizing expeditions after the eruption of the barbarians had obliterated the civilization of Europe during the 10th and 11th centuries rhyme developed mainly in connection with ecclesiastical poetry during the 12th and 13th centuries it reached an ACME of evolution which has never been surpassed during all the succeeding generations it must not be thought that because so much attention is given to the ds0 this constitutes the only supremely great hymn of the 13th century there are at least five or six others that well deserved to be mentioned in the same breath one of them the famous Stabat Mater of Jacopo Naidu tody has been considered by some critics as quite as beautiful as the Assyrian poetic expression though below it as poetry because of the lesser solemnity of its subject certainly no more marvelously poetic expression of all that is saddest in human sorrow has ever been put into words then that which is to be found in these days chances of the Franciscan monk who had himself known all the depths of human sorrow in trial most people know the opening stanzas of it well enough to scarce need their presentation and yet it is from the poem itself and not from any critical appreciation of it that its greatness must be judged Stabat Mater Dolorosa yuk-ster crucem lacrimosa dumpin David Phileas who use an imam Jay Bentham contrast anthem at dole anton petrov aside Larios o qualms

rate in tanto suply Co as in the case of the D isère a there have been many translations of the Stabat Mater most of them done by poets whose hearts were in their work and who were accomplishing their purpose as laborers of love while we realize how many beautiful translations there are it is almost pitiful to think what poor English versions are sometimes used in the devotional exercises of the present day one of the most beautiful translations is undoubtedly that by Denis Florence McCarthy who has been hailed as probably the best translator into English of foreign poetry that our generation has known and whose translations of Calderon presents the greatest of Spanish poets and addresses worthy of the original as it is possible for a poet to have in a foreign tongue McCarthy has succeeded in following the intricate Ryan plan of the start with a perfection that would be deemed almost impossible in our hoarser English which does not readily yield itself to double rhymes and which permits frequency of rhyme as a rule only at the sacrifice of vigor of expression the first three stanzas however of the stop at mutter will serve to show how well McCarthy accomplished his difficult task by the cross on which suspended with his bleeding hands extended hung that son she so adored stood the morning mother weeping she whose heart it's silence keeping grief had cleft as with a sword oh that

metre of the original was also made by the distinguished Irish poet Aubrey de verre the last two stanzas of this translation have been considered as perhaps the most charmingly effectively equivalent

may calm when to dust my dust returneth save a soul to thee that Europe grant it thou the crown and palm even distinguished professors of philosophy and theology occasionally indulge themselves in the privilege of writing these latin hymns and what is more surprising succeeded in making poetry of a very high order at least two of the most distinguished professors in these branches at the University of Paris in the latter half of the 13th century must be acknowledged as having written hymns that are confessedly immortal not because of any canonical usage that keeps them alive but because they express in very different ways in wonderous ly beautiful language some of the supply mist religious thoughts of their times these two are st. Bonaventure the Franciscan and st. Thomas of Acland the Dominican st. Bonaventure is hymns on the passion and cross of Christ represent what has been most beautifully Soglin these subjects in all the ages st. Thomas's poetic work centers around the Blessed Sacrament in whose honor he was so ardent and so devoted that the composition of the office for its faced was confided to him by the Pope the hymns he wrote far from being the series of prosy theological formulas that might have been expected perhaps under such circumstances are great contributions to the form of literature which contains more gems of purest ray in its collection than almost any other st. Thomas's poetic jewels shine with no borrowed radiance and their effulgence is not cast into shadow even by the greatest of their companion pieces among the Latin hymns of a wonderfully productive century Neil's tribute to one of them has already been quoted in an earlier part of this chapter it hasn't even considered almost miraculous that this profoundest of thinkers should have been able to attain within the bounds of rhyme and rhythm the accurate expression of some of the most intricate theological thoughts that have ever been expressed and yet should have accomplished his purpose with a clarity of language a simplicity and directness of words a poetic sympathy of feeling and an utter devotion that make his hymns great literature in the best sense of the word one of them at least the pan jelling waggle Oreo scene has been in constant use in the church ever since his time and the last two stanzas beginning with tantum ergo sacramentum or perhaps the most familiar of all the Latin hymns few of those most familiar with it realize his place in literature the greatness of its author and its own marvelous poetic merits it must not be forgotten that at the very time when these hymns were most popular the modern languages were just assuming shape even at the end of the 13th century none of them had reached anything like the form that it was to continue to hold except perhaps the Italian and to some extent of the Spanish when Dante wrote his Divine Comedy at the beginning of the 14th century he was tempted to use the Latin language the common language of all the scholars of his day and the language ordinarily used for any ambitious literary project for nearly a century later it will not be forgotten that when patriarch in the 14th century wrote his epic Africa on which he expected his fame as a poet to rest he preferred to use the Latin language fortunately Dante was large enough of mind to realize that the vulgar tongue of the Italians would prove the best instrument for the expression of thoughts he wished to communicate and so he cast the Italian language into the mould in which it has practically ever since remained his very hesitation however shows how incomplete as yet were these modern languages considered by the scholars who used them it was at this very formative period however that the people on whose use of nascent modern languages their future character depended were having didn't to their ears the numerous church services the great Latin hymns with their wonderful finish of expression undoubtedly one of the most effective factors of whatever of sweetness there is in the modern tongues must be attributed to this influence exerted all unconsciously upon the minds of the people the rhythm and the expressiveness of these magnificent poems could scarcely fail to stamp itself to some degree upon the language crude though it might be of the people who had become so familiar with him it is then to no small extent because of the influence of these Latin hymns that our modern languages possess a rhythmic melodious 'no staten time enabled them to become the instruments for poetic diction in such a way as to satisfy all the requirements of the modern ear in rhyme and rhythm and meter a striking corresponding effect upon the exactness of expression in the modern languages it will be noticed as pointed out in the chapter on the prose of the century as representing according to professor a saints fairy the greatest benefit that was derived from the exaggerated practice of dialectic disputation in the curriculum of the medieval universities those who would think that the 13th century was happy in creative genius but lacking in the critical faculty that would enable it to select the best not only of the hymns presented by its own generations but also of those which came from the preceding centuries should make themselves acquainted with the history of these latin hymns just before the 13th century the monks of the famous abbey of st. Victor took up the writing of hymns with wonderful success and two of them Adam and Hugh became not only the favorites of their own but of succeeding generations the 13th century received the work of these men and gave them a vogue which has continued down to our time some of the hymns that were thus acclaimed and made popular are among the greatest contributions to this form of literature and while they have had periods of eclipse owing to bad taste in the times that followed the reputation secured during the 13th century has always been sufficient to recall them to memory and bring men again to a realization of their beauty when a more aesthetic degeneration came into existence one of the hymns of the immediate preceding time which attained great popularity during the 13th century a popularity that reflects credit on those among whom it is noted as well as upon the great hymn itself was bernard of clone ease or bernard of amour lays him concerning the contempt of the world many of the ideas of which were to be used freely in the book bearing this title written by the first pope of the century innocent the third whose name is usually though gratuitously associated with quite other ideas than those of contempt for worldly grandeur the description of the New Jerusalem to come which is found at the beginning of this great poem is the basis of all the modern religious poems on this subject few hymns have been more praised chef and His Christ in song says quote this glowing description is the sweetest of all the New Jerusalem hymns of heavenly homesickness which have taken their inspiration from the last two chapters of Revelation close quote the extreme difficulty of the meter which is author selected and which would seem almost to preclude the possibility of expressing great connected thought especially in so long a poem became under the master hand of this poetic genius whose command the Latin language is unrivaled the source of new beauties for his besides maintaining the meter of the old Latin ex amateurs he added double rhymes in each line and yet had every alternate line also end in a rhyme to appreciate the difficulty this must be read or ANOVA seema tempore a pessimist vigil hemos hecho Manasa tell em Annette arbiter la soupe Ramos aiming at imminent would mala terminate a quark coronet rata remunerated ex illiterate Ezra donut how farad espera Doric way Pandora mentees honesty Sabri amoun yet improbable yet attract why you stay he brave AV b torik brave a pledget or hick brave a fleet or non brave a beaver a nun brave a plunger a right rib wet or or a tribute Co stud brevis oxy evita peron ease Oh Rattray brute co-chairman Co stud Lou a plainness quid dot or equipos a ther agent i boosted crocheted Ignace sedara verbum o--'s optimist on Tebow's astra Malini's there are many versions of a few translators have dared to attempt a close imitation of the original meter its beauty is so great however that even the labor required for this has not deterred some enthusiastic admirers our English tongue however does not lend itself readily to the production of hexameters though in these lines the rhyme and rhythm have been caught to some extent these are the latter times these are not better times let us stand waiting low howl with awfulness he came in lawfulness comes arbitrating even from this it may be realized that dr. Neil is justified in his enthusiastic opinion that quote it is the most lovely in the same way that the des idees is the most sublime and the Stoppit mater the most pathetic of medieval poems close quote while it scarcely has a place here properly a word must be said with regard to the music of the 13th century it might possibly be thought that these wondrous rhymes had been spoiled in their effectiveness by the crude music to which they were set to harbour any such notion however would only be another exhibition of that intellectual snobbery which concludes that generations so distant could not have anything worth the consideration of our more developed a time the music of the 13th century is as great a triumph as any other feature of its accomplishment it would be clearly absurd to suppose that the people who created the cathedrals and made every element associated with the church ceremonial so beautiful as to attract the attention of all generations since could have failed to develop a music suitable to these magnificent veins as a matter of fact no more suitable music for congregational singing than the Gregorian chant which reached the Acme of its development in the 13th century has been invented and the fact that the Catholic Church after having tried modern music is now going back to the medieval musical mode for devotional expression is only a further noteworthy tribute to the enduring character of another phase of 13th century accomplishment Roch Stroh who wrote the article on plain chant for groves dictionary of music and for the Encyclopedia Britannica declared that no more wonderful succession of single notes had ever been strung into melodies so harmoniously adapted to the expression of words with which they were to be sung than some of these playing of the Middle Ages and especially the 13th century no more sublimely beautiful musical expression of all the depths there are in sadness has ever found its way into music then what is so simply expressed in the lamentations as they are sung in the office called Tenebrae during Holy Week even more beautiful in its joyousness is the marvelous melody of the exultant which is sung in the office of holy Saturday this latter is said to be the sublimest expression of joyful sound that has ever come from the human heart and mind in a word in music as an every other artistic department the men of the 13th century reached a standard that has never been excelled and that remains to the present day as a source of pleasure and admiration for intellectual men and will continue to be so for numberless generations yet unborn nor must it be thought that the 13th century men and women were satisfied with church music alone about the middle of the century part singing came into use in the churches at the less formal ceremonials and soon spread to secular uses as the Mystery Plays gave rise to the modern drama so church history gave birth to the popular music of the time in England particularly about the middle of the century various Glee songs were sung portions of which have come down to us and a great movement of folk music was begun before the end of the century the interaction of church and secular music had given rise to many of the modes of modern musical development and the musical movement was as substantially begun as were any of the other great artistic and intellectual movements which this century so marvelously initiated this subject of course is of the kind that needs to be studied in special works if any satisfactory amount of information is to be obtained but even the passing hint of it which we have been able to give will enable the reader to realize the important place of the third century and the development of modern music end of chapter 12 chapter 13 of the 13th greatest of centuries by James Walsh this LibriVox recording is in the public domain chapter 13 3 most read books of the century three books were more red than any others during the 13th century and that is of course apart from Holy Scriptures which contrary to the usually accepted notion in this matter were frequently the subject of study and have almost daily contact in one way or another by all classes of people these three books were Reynard the Fox that is this series of stories of the animals in which they are used as a cloak for a satire upon man and his ways called off in the animal epic the golden legend which impressed Longfellow so much that he spent many years making what he hoped might prove for the modern world a bit of the self revelation that this wonderful old medieval book has been for its own and subsequent generations and finally the romance of the Rose probably the most read book during the 13th and 14th and most of the 15th centuries in all the countries of Europe its popularity can be well appreciated from the fact that though Chaucer was much read there are more than three times as many manuscript copies of the romance of the rose in existence as of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and it was one of the earliest books to see the light in print it has become the fashion in recent years to take the pains from time to time to find out which are the most read books the criterion of worth of setup is not very valuable for unfortunately for the increase in readers there has not come a corresponding demand for the best books nor for solid literature the fact that a book has been the best seller or the most read for a time usually stamps it at once as trivial or at most as being of quite momentary interest and not at all likely to endure it is all the more interesting to find then that these three most read books of the 13th century have not only more than merely academic interest at the present time but that they are literature in the best sense of the word they have always been not only a means of helping people to pass the time the sad office to which the generality of books has been reduced in our time but a source of inspiration for literary men in many generations since they first became popular the story of Reynard the Fox is one of the most profoundly humorous books that was ever written its satire was aimed at its own time yet it is never for a moment antiquated for the modern reader at a time when owing to the imperfect development of personal rights it would have been extremely dangerous to satirize as the author does very freely the rulers the judges the nobility the ecclesiastical authorities and churchmen and practically all classes of society the writer whose name has unfortunately for the completeness of literary history not to come down to us succeeded in painting all the foibles of men and pointing out all the differences there are between men's pretensions and their actual accomplishments all the methods by which the cunning scoundrel could escape justice are exploited the various modes of escaping punishment by direct and indirect bribery by pretending repentance and Reformation by cunning appeal to the selfishness of judges are revealed with the fidelity to detail of a modern muckraker yet all of it with a humanely humorous quality which while it takes away nothing from the completeness of the exposure removes most of the bitterness that probably would have made the satire fail of its purpose while every class in the community of the time comes in for satirical allusions that give us a better idea of how closely the men and the women of the time resemble those of our own then is to be found in any other single literary work that has been preserved for us from this century or indeed any other the series of stories seemed to be scarcely more than a collection of fables for children and probably was read quite unsuspectingly by those who are so unmercifully satirized in it though doubtless as is usually noted in such cases each one may have applied the satire of the story as he saw it to his neighbor and not to himself a recent editor has said very well of Raynard of the Fox that it is one of the most universal of books in its interest for all classes critics ever times been ready to praise and few of any have found fault it is one of the books that answers well to what Cardinal Newman declared to be at least the accidental definition of a classic it pleases in childhood in youth in middle age and even in declining years it is because of the eternal Verity of the humanity in the book that was so much truth fruit writing a Reynard can say quote it is not addressed to a passing mode of folly or of profligacy but it touches the perennial nature of mankind laying bare our own sympathies and tastes and weaknesses with as keen and true an edge as when the living world of the old suebian poet winced under its earliest utterance close quote the writer who traced the portraits must be counted one of the great observers of all time as is the case with so many creative artists of the 13th century though this is true elsewhere that in literature the author is not known perhaps he thought it's safer to shroud his identity and friendly obscurity rather than expose himself to the risks the finding of supposed keys to a satyr might occasion too much credit must not be given to this explanation however though some writers have made material out of it to exploit church intolerance which the conditions do not justify we are not sure who wrote the author of legends we do not know the author of the CID even all-pervasive Germans scholarship has not settled the problem of the writer of the Nibelungen and the authorship of the Dia's array is in doubt though all of these would be sources of honor and praise rather than danger authors had evidently not as yet become sophisticated to the extent of seeking immortality for their works they even seemed to have been indifferent as to whether their names were associated with him or not enough for them apparently to have had the satisfaction of doing all else seemed futile the original of Reynard the Fox was probably written in the Netherlands though it may be somewhat difficult for the modern mind to associate so much of wit and humour with the Dutchman of the Middle Ages it arose there about the time that the CID came into vogue in Spain the arthur legends were being put into shape in England and the Nibelungen reached its ultimate form in Germany Renard thus fills up the geographical chart of contemporary literary effort for the 13th century since France and Italy came in for their share in other forms of literature and no country is missing from the story of successful enduring accomplished in letters it was written from so close to the heart of nature that it makes a most interesting gift book even for the 20th century child and yet will be read with probably even more pleasure by the parents with good reason another recent editor has thus summed up the Kath Lissa T of its appeal to all generations quote this book belongs to the rare class which is equally delightful to children and to their elders in this regard it may be compared to Gulliver's Travels Don Quixote and pilgrims progress for wit and shrewd satire and for pure drollery both in situations and descriptions it is unsurpassed the animals are not men dressed up in the skin of beasts but or throughout true to their characters and are not only strongly realized but consistently drawn albeit in so simple and captivating a way that the subtle art of the narrator is quite hidden and one is aware only of reading and absorbing ly interesting and witty tale close quote to have a place beside Gulliver the old Spanish knight and Christian shows the estimation in which the book is held by those who are best acquainted with it the work is probably best known through the version of it which has come to us from the greatest of German poets Goethe whose Oren accrue 'kz has perhaps had more sympathetic readers and a wider audience than any of Goethe's works the very fact that so deeply intellectual a literary man should have considered it worth his while to devote his time to making a modern version of it shows not only the estimation in which he held it but also affords excellent testimony to its worth as literature for Goethe unlike most poets was a fine literary critic and one who above all knew the reasons for the aesthetic faith that was in him the animal story is in every age however have been imitations of it much more than is usually imagined while the author probably obtained the hint for his work from some of the old-time fables as they came to him by tradition but we have no reason to think that Aesop was familiar to him and many for thinking the great fabulist was not he added so much to this simple literary mode transformed it so thoroughly from child's literature to world literature that the main merit of modern animal stories must be attributed to him Uncle Remus and the many compilations of this kind that had been popular in our own generation Oh much more to the animal epic then might be thought possible by one not familiar with the original 30th century work every language has a translation of the animal epic and most of the generations since have been interested and amused by the quaint conceits which enabled the author to picture so undisguised li men and women under animal garb it discloses better than any other specimen of the literature of the time that men and women do not change even in the course of centuries and that in the heart of the Middle Ages a wise observer to see the foibles of humanity just as they exist at the present time anyone who thinks that evolution after seven centuries should have changed men's somewhat in their ethical aspects at least made their aspirations higher and their tendencies less commonplace not to say lest degenerative should read one of the old versions of Renard the Fox and be convinced that men and women in the 13th century were quite the same as we are familiar with him at the present moment the second of the most read books of the century is the famous legenda aria or as it has been called in English the golden legend written by Jacobus de borghini the distinguished dominican preacher and born during the first half of the 13th century died just at its close who after rising to the higher grades in his own order became the Archbishop of Genoa his work at once sprang into popular favor and continued to be perhaps the most widely read book with the exception of the Holy Scriptures during the 14th and 15th centuries it was one of the earliest books printed in Italy the first edition appearing about 1570 and it is evident that it was considered that its widespread popularity would not only reimburse the publisher but would help the nascent art of printing by bringing it to the attention of a great many people its subject is very different from that of the modern most read books librarians do not often have to supply lives of saints nowadays though some similarities of material with that of books now much in demand help to account for its vogue Jacobus d what are gains who work consisted of the lives of the greater saints of the church since the time of Christ and detailed especially the wonderful things that happened in their lives some of which of course were mythical and all of them containing marvelous stories this gave prominence to many legends that have continued to maintain their hold upon the popular imagination ever since with all this advantageous interest however the book contained a solid fund of information with regard to the lives of the saints and besides it taught the precious lessons of unselfishness and the care for others of the men who had come to be greeted by the title of Saint the work must have done not a little to stir up the faith alive in the charity and build up the characters of the people of the time and certainly has fewer objections than most popular reading at any period of the world's history for young folks the wonderful legends afforded excellent and absolutely innocuous exercise of the functions of the imagination quite as well as our own modern wonder books or fairy tales while the stories themselves presented many descriptive portions out of which subjects for decorative purposes could readily be obtained it must be set down as another typical distinction of the 13th century and an addition to its greatness that it should have made the golden legend popular and thus preserved it for future generations who became deeply interested in it as in most of the other precious Heritage's they received from this great original century the third of the most read books of the century the romance of the Rose is not so well known except by scholars as is the animal epic or perhaps even the golden legend anyone who wants to understand the burden of the time however and who wishes to put himself in the mood and the tense to comprehend not only the other literature of the era and in this it must be included even Dante but also the social educational and even scientific movements of the period must become familiar with it it has been well said that a knowledge and study of the three most read books of the century those which we have named will afford a far clearer insight into the daily life and the spirit working within the people for whom they were written and the annals of the wars our political struggles that were waged during the same period between Kings and Nobles for this clearer insight a knowledge of the romance of the Rose is more important than of the others it provides a better introduction to the customs and habits the manners of thought and of action the literary and educational interests of the people of the 13th century than any mere history however detailed good in this respect it resembles Homer who as fraud declares has given us a better idea of Greek life than a whole encyclopedia of class find information would have done the intimate life stories of no other periods in history are so well illustrated nor so readily to be comprehended as those of Homer and the authors of the medieval Rome and the romance of the Rose continued to be for more than two centuries the most read book in Europe everyone with any pretense to scholarship or to literary taste in any European country considered it necessary to be familiar with it and without exaggeration what Lowell once declared with regard to Don Quixote that it would be considered a mark of lack of culture to miss a reference to it in any country in Europe might well have been repeated during the 14th and 15th centuries of the romance of the robes it has in recent years been put into very suitable English dress by mr. F s Ellis and published among the temple classics thus placing it with an easy reach of English readers mr. Ellis must certainly be considered a suitable judge of the interest there is in the work he spent several years in translating its two and twenty thousand six hundred and eight lines and yet considers that few books deserve as much attention as this typical 13th century allegory he says quote the charge of dullness once paid against this highly imaginative and brilliant work successive English writers until quite recently have been content to accept the verdict though professor Morley and others have of late Abele repelled the charge if further testimony were necessary as to the falsity of the accusation and the opinion of one who has found a grateful pastime in translating it might be considered of any weight he would not hesitate to traverse the attribution of dullness and to assert that it is a poem of extreme interest written as to the first part with delicate fancy sweet appreciation of natural beauty clear insight and skilful in vain while Jada means continuation is distinguished by vigor brilliant invention and close observation of human nature the 13th century lives before us close quote the rose is written on a lofty plane of literary value and the fact that it was so popular speaks well for the taste of the times and for the enthusiasm of the people for the more serious forms of literature not that the romance of the Rose is a very serious book itself but if we compare it with the popular publications which barely touch the realities of life in modern time it will seem imminently serious in spite of the years that have elapsed since its original publication it has not lost all its interest even for a casual reader and especially for one whose principal studies mankind in its varying environment down the ages for it presents a very interesting picture of men and their ways in this wonderful century here as in the stories of Reynard the Fox one is brought face to face with the fact that men and women have not changed and that the peccadilloes of our own generation have their history in the Middle Ages also take for instance the question of the two great love of money which is now the subject of so much writing and sermonizing one might think that at least this was modern here however is what the author of the romance of the Rose has to say about it three cruel vengeance 'as pursue these miserable wretches who hoard up their worthless wealth great toil is theirs to win it then their spoil they fear to lose and lastly grieve most bitterly that they must leave their hoards behind them cursed they die who living lived but wretchedly for no man if he lack of love a speak below or joy above if those who heap up wealth would show fair love to others they would go through life beloved and thus would reign sweet happy days if they were fain who holds so much of good to shower around their bounty on to those they found in need thereof and nobly lent their money free from measurement of usury yet gave it not to idle Gangrel men I want then that throughout the land were seen no popper Karl or Starling Queen but lust of wealth does so a base man's heart that even loves sweet Grace boughs down before it men but love their neighbors that their love may prove a profit and both bought and sold are friendships at the price of gold nay shameless women set to hire their bodies heedless of Hellfire it is after reading a passage like this in a book written in the 13th century that one feels the full truth of that expression of the greatest of American critics James Russell Lowell which so often comes back to mind with regard to the works of this century that to read classic is like reading a commentary on the morning paper when this principle is applied the other way I suppose it may be said that when a book written in the long ago sounds as if it were the utterance of someone aroused by the evils round him in our modern life then it Springs from so close to the heart of nature that it is destined to live and have an influence far beyond its own time the romance of the rose written seven centuries ago now promises to have renewed youth in the awakening of interest in our Gothic ancestors and their accomplishments before the overpraised Renaissance came to trouble the stream of thought and writing other passages serve to show how completely the old-time poet realized all the abuses of the desire for wealth and how much it makes men waste their lives overrun essentials instead of trying to make existence worthwhile for themselves and others here is an arrangement of the strenuous life of business every line of which is as true for us as it was for the poets generation tis true though some twill little please to hear the trader knows no ease forever in his soul they pray to ages care of how he may amass more wealth this mad desire doth all his thoughts and actions fire devising means whereby to stuff his barns and covers for enough he near can have but hung growth yet his neighbor's goods in gold to get it is as though for thirst he fain would quaff the volume of the Seine at one fold draught and yet should fail to find dis waters of avail to quench his longing what distress what anguish wrath and bitterness devour the wretch fell rage in spite possess his spirit day and night and tear his heart the fear of what pursues him like a Spectre gaunt the more he hath a wider mouth the ups no draught can quench his drought the old poet pictures the happiness of the poor man by contrast and can in conclusion depict even more pitilessly the real poverty of spirit of the man who quote having struggle of still to get close quote and never stops to enjoy a life itself by helping his fellows light heart and gay goes many a beggar by the way but little heating though his back be bent beneath the charcoal sack they labor patiently and sing and dance and laugh at what so thing before having care they not but feed on scraps and chitlings but besides st. Marcel's and since their gains for wassail vin straight wind once more to work not grumbling li but light of heart des bird on tree winning their bread without desire to fleece their neighbors not they tire of this they're round but week by week in mirth and work contentment seek returning when their work is done once more to swill the jovial ton and he who want he holds esteems enough is rich beyond the dreams of many a dreary usurer and lives his life days happier far for naught it signifies what gains the wretched usurer makes the pains of poverty inflict him yet who having struggle of still to get the pictures are as true to life at the beginning of the 20th century as they were in the latter half of the 13th there are little touches of realism in both the pictures which show at once how acute an observer how full of humor his appreciation and yet how sympathetic a writer the author of the romance was and at the same time reveal something of the sociological value of his work it discloses what is so easily concealed beneath the mask of formal historical writing and tells us of the people rather than of the few great ones among them are those whom time and chance had made leaders of men it seems long to read but as a recent translator has said it represents only the file of a newspaper for 18 months and while it talks of quite as trivial things as the modern newspaper the information is of a kind that is likely to do more good and prove of more satisfaction than the passing crimes and scandals that now occupy over anxious readers end of chapter 13 | Priceless Audiobooks | UCly1zcKPGzGW9wZMCZodWOA | 2018-03-05 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 13,073 | 72,937 |
IuYxWXkFbFU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYxWXkFbFU | To Train Up a Child negative book review (Michael Pearl part 1) | hello everyone Susanna Anderson here from the are they all yours blog at Stephen Anderson family com today I want to do a book review on the book to train up a child by Michael and Debbie Pearl Michael and every pearl or the heads of the no greater joy ministries and they're somewhat popular in certain fringe circles of Christianity and to train up a child is their most popular book that according to their own claims has sold I believe they now say 2 million on the back of the copy I have it says six hundred and ninety thousand books I've sold I believe I read some well Sam now sold 2 million I will be doing a review of this book to train up a child now this is only one of two videos I'm making on the pearls so consider this like a part 1 and if you feel that has benefited you be sure to seek out my other video on Michael Pearl that I will be recording after this one to train up a child this is my copy of the book and right away you can see I'm not a fan of this book I put this disclaimer in here because I believe this book to be very harmful and I was reading it twice through for this review and I didn't want to have so many see them on my coffee table or if I was on public reading and I didn't want somebody to think I condone of this book so I put that disclaimer on that if you have not enough time to listen to this video I would just like to leave you with my word of warning I believe this is a very dangerous harmful book and I do not recommend it and I strongly warn parents against this book that's all you take away from this video I hope to make that once you take away from it as far as now going into detail about the review I will try to make it as concise as possible I will be quoting directly from the book why is this book so popular I think there are several reasons why this book is popular it is one of the few books that advocates corporal punishment of children and I'm not against corporal punishment of children the Bible clearly teaches punishment of children however what this book teaches is abuse so there's a distinct difference there and I believe the reason why the book is popular part of the reason because Christians are misled into think that this is a biblical approach the book is popular because it draws on the Bible so it has an element of truth that's mixed with harmful dangerous practices but there is that element of truth so people seeking the truth might come across this book and be sucked in by it and of course it's popular I believe because it appeals to selfish parents parents whose only goal in parenting is for their own self gratification of maybe using their children as an extension of their ego just show up look how well-behaved my children are and look what a wonderful Christian I am because of how I trained my children like a little army of ten soldiers so that of course is appealing to selfish egocentric parents and also I think the book is popular because it's a gimmick it's an infomercial and you will see that as we go through the book it's like the ShamWow of parenting books it's the Hercules hook of parenting books you just expect you know this big infomercial and do what we say and your child will be perfectly obedient well those gimmicks sell you know people like to throw money at things in the hopes that if you spend money on something you will be good at it I mean just think of for instance expensive language learning programs or people are always spending money on new diet fans and books or gym memberships which upwards of 90% of gym members never actually use so I think this book is partly popular because it is a gimmick that offers parents to help of buy this book and your life will be revolutionized that leads me to my next point why do I believe this book is dangerous well it's dangerous because it is popular among certain French people and Michael Pearl is considered a conservative or fundamentalist Christian and I've even heard him being referred to as an independent baptist not I'm an independent Baptists our church as an Independent Baptist Church we are diametrically opposed to no greater Joy's ministries and their teachings they have many false doctrines I mean that is beyond the scope of this video however he is considered by some to be an independent Baptists and perception is reality I think there's a danger there that people could fall for that and buy into his philosophies because they believe oh he is a Christian and he is a Baptist well he's not I think that the book is dangerous because this book is not predominantly read by older fathers of many children this is a book that appeals mostly to young mothers I'm sure there are young fathers who read it or there might be old parents really but I would say the vast majority that this book appeals to young mothers and because they're young the insecure the inexperienced they're very impressionable so a young mom who maybe didn't grow up in a Christian home and doesn't know what the Bible teaches about discipline might be sucked in by these teachings thinking that she's doing the right thing and inadvertently be led to do something that she will regret she might harm her child hurt her child by following the teachings in this book I believe that is a real danger and in fact in the last several years up in at least three cases of children who died as a result of their parents disciplining them that were attributed to the teachings in this book where the parents either outright sinned we learned that from this book and we're just practicing this book or we're you know they were found with a quarter-inch plumbing pipe that Michael pearl recommends where they somehow we're connected to this book so it's not just a theory of real children have really died and others the sibling of one of the children the diet assembling of that child was almost beaten to death so I believe that this book not only teaches these things but I think it can lead parents into and abusing possibly even killing that children so that's just by way of introduction I will now going to the points and I will go through the book page by page just highlighting certain points but I want to first explain the points that I will be covering in this book and then as I go through the book page by page will I will point back to these elements that can be found throughout the book so in no particular order the things that stand out about the author and the content of this book is that this author shows really strong indications of being an extreme narcissist someone who loves himself someone who is egocentric and the whole point of his parenting seems to just be focused on him how can it make his life as convenient and easy as possible and there is that element in parenting we don't want our children driving us nuts because simply it would not be practical you know beyond whether it's good for the child or not but that seems to be his only and primary focus just how does it relate to him and I will point out elements of him showing signs of being a person who is just very egocentric oh another element that occurs throughout the book is his disdain for kids his disdain for children and I'm sure that if Michael Provo confront over this point would say no I love kids I have five kids and 22 grandkids or whatever he has and that might be true that he loves his own kids when he speaks of others all it should be the judge of that when he refers to other people's children I will let you be the judge of that to me I walk away from having read this book really sad that he just really has a disdain for children he just he disdains others and he disdains children in particular the book teaches unrealistic expectations unrealistic expectations that's where you'll find the infomercial of if you do this you will have that result and I will go through this examples in the book the book contradicts itself in many points of pointing out those contradictions some things in the book just simply are cruel or sound downright creepy and perverted I will be pointing those up and finally other elements of the book just seem too unlikely to be truthful it just does not seem that the some of the things he's saying can even be truthful now I think that the root cause of Michael pearls false teaching is that Michael crow believes in what's called sinless perfection he believes that a born-again saved Christian can reach a state or should reach a state of sinless perfection meaning that they no longer sin in fact he has a study on Romans on his website where he goes through the book of Romans chapter by chapter and when he gets to Romans chapter 7 he does not teach that it is a struggle in a Christian between the oldest sinful nature of the old man and the new creature that's born of God the new man that cannot sin and that the two struggle together as long as we are in this earthly vessel of our body no he teaches that that struggle is just something that unsaved people experience people who are not Christians and that once you are the Christian you would not have that struggle or that you can reach a point of sinless perfection now if you ask Michael prologue right do you believe in sinless perfection he will give you some hour long diatribe where he basically just will talk out of both sides of his mouth and say that no I don't believe that as he then goes on to explain sinless perfection and you will find that throughout this book as well that Michael pearl talks out of both sides of his mouth because he doesn't really want to be pinned down on any doctrine because he wants to sell his book to a wide range of Christians and if he says well I believe in sinless perfection that would run off many Christians who know that to be false the Bible say if we say that we have no sin we deceive ourselves on the truth is not in us Michael pearl will not come out and say I believe in sinless perfection but that is what he teaches my husband has done an entire sermon called turning Romans 7 on it's then you can find that on his channel Sanderson 1611 I will also try to link it hello in the information for this video so without any further ado I'm now going to get into the book and I will point out evidence of those points that I just showed you that he has a narcissistic tendencies disdains others especially kids has unrealistic expectations contradicts his own teachings and is downright bizarre creepy and cruel and some things are just hard to believe if you won't like to have the text of this book it is available online the link for the book will be again in the comments for this video you can find the link to this book it used to be up online you can still find it through wayback machine so you can verify everything I'm saying and I'll also be reading the page numbers so right here when we start out on the first page page 7 to train up child switch your kids this goes back to him sounding like an egocentric person who disdains others when you tell some parents they need to switch their children they respond I would if I could find someone willing to trade I have had children in my house who were enough to give an electric wheat grinder a nervous breakdown their parents looked like escapees from a world war two polish box car after another hour with those kids and I would have been searching the Yellow Pages for discount vasectomies and he then goes on to list all the things his child and wrong throughout the book there was a theme of we had X Y Z the people over or I saw X Y Z the people in public and let me tell you all the things they did wrong and stupid he seems to just go through life viewing everybody as just this horrible inferior parent as opposed to him the grail of all parenting wisdom this is one of the inconsistencies that I will refer back to it is a fact that spankings administered by thrust raided parents or as counterproductive as not spanking when it is needful so bear that in mind that he says do not ever spank your children when you are frustrated we're not talking anger you will mention that later but if you're even frustrated you cannot spank your children that is good advice however it's not always humanly possible you would either not have to spank your children when they do wrong or you would sometimes have to spank them in frustration you cannot say always spank your kids when they do wrong and say never spank them when you're frustrated those two cannot always be brought into compliance so he will later in the book have to choose but he doesn't he tells us that we need to do both so that's one of the contradictions in the book he now goes on to give a good example and this is the ShamWow parenting another mother walked into my house with her little ones and sat down to talk she said to them go hide in the sunroom and play and don't bother mom unless you need something for the next two hours we were not even aware the children were present so as he's on the sofa chatting in the living room with a small of little kids for two hours he thinks it's a good thing that she's not even aware that her children are present except when a little one came in holding herself saying pee pee mama now right there he makes his first reference to a child's bathroom habits throughout the book he keeps talking about children in the bathroom and in the sum total that is just weird and creepy he could have just left it at the kids did not interrupt us or they only interrupted us once when there was a legitimate need he Michael pro feels the need to tell us that the little girl came in holding herself and saying pee pee mama it just gives a glimpse into his mind of how he sees these children and as we go through this book you will see weird things and he keeps referencing back to bathroom habits played together well resolve their own conflicts and didn't expect indulgent pacification when one of the girls turned the rocking horse over bumping her head they didn't run in and out tearing the place apart they were told not to this mother did not spank her children right my house nor did she need to rebuke them she looked rested now as a mother of little ones who just sat around for two hours chatting with Michael pearl and she looked so rested you might young mom read this book and think wow I am so far off the deep end I can't do that with my kids I don't feel rested and as a mom of only little kids you are not always going to feel rested because it is just a lot of hard work when she called the children to go home one little fellas mama can I stay and play with Shoshana mother answered no not today we have work to do at home that's why she just sat around with Michael for two hours as he lifted his arms his mother picked him up hugging his mother's neck he said I love you mama this young mother said to me my children want to please me they try so hard to do everything I say it sounds like she cannot be pleased we have such fun together she is looking forward to having more children they are the joy of her life there's an infomercial for you right there he goes on to say that proactive training can produce perfect obedience this is on page 8 and this is one of the ways that he disdains shown and he compares them to animals and the animals he compares them to our animals that the Bible never compared humans to even mice and rats can be trained to respond to stimuli careful training can make a dog perfectly obedient the same is true of a child now the only people that the Bible verse says dogs are reprobates and so I don't know why he's using that as a comparison and he says careful training can make a dog perfectly obedient and then there's a sentence here about dog training books the same is true of a child nor the same is not true of a child a child cannot be trained to perfect obedience because a child is not an animal and the child is not a dog and while their principles we can learn from the animal world we cannot just adopt everything from the animal world an animal unlike a human being does not have a soul that lives forever when an animal dies it ceases to exist humans have an eternal soul a spirit that lives on eternally so to say that animals and humans are just identical is ridiculous and humans are have a sin nature and because of that sin nature that cannot be trained out of them and it's not until the old man the flesh dies that our sin nature dies with it and we have created a new being that when the old man dies someday and the body is laid to rest the new man does live sinlessly forever but now as long as we are on this earth we will not be perfectly obedient here's another infomercial for you you think your kids are too little do you if a seeing-eye dog can be trained to reliably lead a blind man through the dangers of city streets shouldn't a parent expect more out of an intelligent one-year-old let me say that again if a seeing-eye dog can be trained to reliably lead a blind man through the dangers of city streets shouldn't a parent expect more out of an intelligent one-year-old I've had nine intelligent 1 year olds my tenth child is only three months old not one of them could have navigated city streets by himself at age one let alone a let a blind person let alone done more than leading a blind person through busy city streets you may not have trained your dog that well yet every day someone accomplishes it on the dumbest of months here is this disdain for others you know if you were just 1/10 the parent that he is even a clumsy teenager can be trained to be an effective trainer in a dog obedience school I'd like to see the clumsy teenager who is a good dog obedience trainer let alone a seeing-eye dog trainer that's just ridiculous and outrageous to make this claim or to claim that a one-year-old you trained better than a seeing-eye dog to navigate through city streets but aside from that I'm unaware of any dog training books or dog training schools then use corporal punishment as a method of training the dogs so that is really comparing apples to oranges because basically you're telling us that people since they can be trained like dogs can be trained to perfect obedience through means other than corporal punishment I would like to see the dog obedience school that employs corporal punishment it doesn't exist he then later on page nine goes on to talk about the military just think of the relief that it would bring it by one command you could gain the absolute focused attention of all your children tan instantly gain your children's silent unmoving attention and he goes on to describe this military setting and talk about how you know this perfect obedience again the military as far as I know does not employ corporal punishment I don't think they just line up disobedient soldiers that are not doing as they're told and just beating them I and aside from that I'm not aware that soldiers love their superiors so again he's comparing apples to oranges it is possible to get people into outward obedience as they hate you on the inside I'm sure there are many soldiers who hate that hated their drill sergeant because of whatever abusive means they employ to get them into perfect outward obedience and then you contradicts himself saying I'm not suggesting a militarized atmosphere just a comparable level of respect for compliance well no you did you did just suggest a militarized atmosphere that's exactly what you did but he then has to add these disclaimers at the end because he makes his outrageous claims and then he follows it up I want out saying X Y Z just to cover his own back and say well I didn't say that well I know you did and then you just claimed it only to cover yourself on page 11 the frustration parents experience as a result of their failure to Train parent if you have ever been frustrated if you have ever experienced frustration it is your failure to train how'd you not fail and you might have some as successful at training your children is Michael Pro you would never be frustrated that is his claim that's why I'm saying he's very egocentric a narcissistic parent I guess anybody who thinks they can reach a point of sinless perfection would be arrogant you would have to be arrogant because he's creating himself to deity here he's another on page 12 he tells us there's a lot of satisfaction to be gained in training up a child again we're not talking about the benefit to the child no it's his satisfaction that he derives from having this dog trained military trained child it is easy yet challenging well which one is it Michael is it easy or is it challenging the two are not the same either it's easy or it's challenging now those are opposites that's like saying it's easy but it's hard try it for yourself place an appealing object where they can reach it maybe in a no no corner or the carrot juice table haha when others call the coffee table he just comes across as such an arrogant jerk he doesn't have a coffee table you poor human you he has a carrot juice table if you are consistent they will learn to consistently obey commands even in your absence page 12 page 13 it takes just a few minutes to train a child not to touch a given object most children can be brought into complete and joyous compliance in just a few minutes I'm said again most children can be brought into complete and joyous compliance in just a few minutes that is an outrageous claim now he does this on the heels of teaching him not to touch but he then takes that concept and just extrapolate sit across parenting in general children can be brought into complete and joyous compliance in just a few minutes later down the page we'll go back to a disparaging children have you ever been the victim of tiny inquisitive hands a very young child not yet walking is keen on wanting to grab any object of interest so when he's talking about being the victim of tiny inquisitive hands no Michael pearl since you asked no I have not been the victim of tiny inquisitive hands because that wouldn't mean that the child was intentionally trying to harm once you train an infant to respond to the command that know then you will have control in every area of behavior where you can give a command did you hear that an infant is a child not yet able to walk by deaf finition that's what infant means once you train an infant to respond to the command no then you will have control in every area of behavior where you can give a command so if you can teach your child that cannot yet walk your infant your baby what no means you then have control over every area where you can issue command there are many things you can teach the small child at this young age you can stop him from assaulting his mother again just the disparaging language you name it the infant can be trained to obey and I am obviously I'm skipping over fights over coming out of page 14 you can follow along in the text that I quoted online the link that I have below and you can see the sentences in between I'm only highlighting the most outrageous claims like you name it the infant can be trained to obey he just has it as is outrageous claim that a child that is not yet able to put one foot in front of the other possibly not even crawled he can be trained to obey and here's one of these stories that I just don't believe I just don't think this is truthful I know a mother who must call a babysitter every time she takes a shower no you don't there's not a mother alive on this planet who has to call up a babysitter every time she wants to take a shower he likes to talk about the bathroom at length oh so he's just I think this is just another reason for him to heal back to the bathroom he goes on to teach that if you're nursling bites which they all do once or twice and then typically mom says wow that hurt and you pull the baby off the breast that's all that it took with any of my babies oh don't do that pull the baby off the breast they don't bite again because they don't like to hurt mom they don't like to be startled to be started by mom yelling ouch no he says pull the child's hair he's quick to follow that up again talking out of the other side of his mouth always keep in mind that the baby is not being punished just conditioned so when you pull their hair to get them to stop because you are hurting them you are conditioning that is true you're conditioning them through the association of pain so for him to then climb while you it's not being punished it's just conditioning then why are you using hair-pulling if you just wanted to condition the child you could say ouch and take the baby off the breast each time and they would learn that association or you could ring a bell if you want to talk about dogs again to say that you have to inflict pain but we're not actually punishing or spanking that is a contradiction yes that is what you are doing or you could make that association with any other object or sound he then on page 15 come when I call you talks about a military father who does a booty camp with his children talking about a 10 month old a 10 month old that the father allows to become deeply engrossed in play and with some delightful object and then when the parent calls the child is expected to crawl to the parent and if he doesn't he gets swatted and gets put back with a toy again the parent waits until the child is deeply involved inflate and then if he doesn't immediately crawl over the ten-month-old to the father when called the child gets swatted until he learns this lesson calls us you know a rebellious spirit and the child that has to be trained out of him just from 10 months old thereafter until the day the grown child leaves home you can expect him to drop everything and come when called the child will be trained in a matter of minutes again remember earlier he told us he's not suggesting a militarized atmosphere as he then talks about this military father doing just that so here's that's also an inconsistency they're also on page 16 never too young to train a newborn soon needs training but parents who put off training until their child is old enough to discuss issues or receive explanations will discover they have a terrorist in the home again disparaging children long before his big enough to tie shoes as a mother begins to lower her child into the crib he stiffens takes a deep breath and bellows the battle for control has begun in earnest mothers when your newborn baby cries it's a battle for control and you better win it someone is going to be conditioned either the tender-hearted mother will cave in to the child's self-centered demands or she will wisely ignore the crying communicating that crying is kind of productive that's what you want to teach your newborn that the wise mother will ignore the crying and teach the child that crying gets you nothing you know it is a human instinct of newborn babies to be self-centered because they have no way to take care of their own needs they can only communicate through crying and later on you know they can also get mom's attentions by smiling or cooing or whatever but when there are newborn which we're talking about newborns remember a newborn soon needs training to say that it is wise of the mother to neglect the child's cries is just inhumane and cruel and he then later goes on you know to say well you know if the child has a legitimate need you can't ignore that however Michael pearl how is a mother to know well is this just a battle for control I better win that sleep-deprived mom who is at the end of her rope because she feels overwhelmed she might just think that this is truly a battle for control you can order the child or have whatever harm before the child he gives the example of teaching us five month-old daughter by using a 12 inch long 1/8 inch diameter spring from a willow tree not to climb up the stairs by always swatting her whenever she tried to climb up the stairs and as he explains this he then follows it up again at the end with a disclaimer well you know it was not actually spec I was not keeping mine I was not actually spanking up five months old yeah you were when children are too young to reason and reflects fakeness completely inappropriate thanks for stating the obvious the use of the loss which was conditioning as when a horse trainer pops a whip behind a horse or swings a rope to solicit a response ok Michael Pollan if you are like a horse trainer how come then you use the switch to actually hit the child and hurt the child that was your conditioning through pain a horse trainer who pops the whip pops it above the horse not on the horse and they swing the rope above the horse not actually beating the horse with a rope it is again that Association why not just use something else Tim if you're normally conditioning and it's not the pain that's conditioning why use a switch why not get the child's attention some other way ringing a bell or whatever so this is another one of those inconsistencies because I I like he's not spanking then there's no deterrent or if it is a deterrent then he clearly a spanking and inflicting the child with pain all right page 19 if parents carefully and consistently train up their children their performance will be superior to that of a well-trained seeing-eye dog humans cannot be trained to that level of obedience such consistency that he claims as needed 100% consistency is not humanly possible and even if it were you cannot train the sin nature out of the human thing is not a dog he on page 20 that he says like how other parenting methods don't work and how for instance a reward system is not good he says parents who purchase compliance through promise of reward are turning their child into a racketeer paying him for protection the child becomes the mafia or union boss and you take the role of intimidated businessman so you parent you loser your pathetic loser if you offer your kids a reward like hey guys if we get the house picked up in five minutes they'll be ice cream for everybody well you were just had by your kids they played you like a fiddle you poor fool you you just purchase compliance to promise of reward and you have now turned your child into a racketeer you've paid him for protection and you've turned them into mafia in the union boss how do you like that and he has another example on that page you know I observed a father and in a final display of weakness this is what the father did page 22 another negative example the book is replete with these last night while sitting in a meeting I looked over to see a young mother struggling with her small child he seemed determined to make her life as miserable as possible and to destroy her reputation in the process she and the why me look on her tired face he kept defiantly throwing his bottle on the floor encouraged by her picking it up and handing it back to him and making angry noises that forced the preacher to speak louder and louder by increasing his embarrassing displays a child forced her to put him down on the floor he then proceeded to act as a circus clown drawing attention away from the preacher finally he insisted on procuring a neighbor's property when the frazzled mother tried to prevent his thievery and rescue the stolen goods he kicked his legs like an egg beater all the while screaming and protests it was enough to make him believe the devil started out as an infant so he tells us this is a small child but he actually now confirms that this was indeed an infant who was just determined to make his mother miserable and destroy her reputation this chapter was entitled behold the second woe talking about God pouring out his wrath and the end times and that's what he compares this child to again disparaging this child demonizing this child and his focus is on the preacher you know I wonder if that's because he considers himself a pastor of some weird home Church that he does so you know the focus has to be on him the baby was strong attention away from the preacher well let me tell you something Michael pearl we have 350 to 400 people in our morning services on Sunday mornings and about 300 people in the evening services on Sundays and Wednesdays with approximately 120 to 150 of those people in attendance being children 12 and under and at least 20 of those if not 30 children age of 1 and under so I mean 12 months undone if we said 2 years old and under that would be like more like 40 children we do not have this problem the children never scream to a point where the pastor has to scream over them or where they're distracting the people around them because they're busy with their own children of course I think this whole scenario is made or severely blown out of proportion and did this whole disparaging of children I don't think you live in the real world and actually know what it's like to have a normal-sized Church with children a normal part of the service this is just completely fabricated and unrealistic I'm going to skip over parts of the book for sake of time on page 62 here's another infomercial about personal friends of theirs stayed in their home for a couple of days submitting to scrutiny they're always training other people's kids and there was a miracle here tonight the chapter is called because throughout the book you'll notice that Michael Pearl has this god complex where he you know aligns himself with deity so he's this miracle worker as he is quick to tell us because after just a few days of consistent disciplining and scrutiny two weeks later they were in a church meeting where I was speaking that children all sat on the bench with them never making a stir afterward the father's eyes filled with Wonder exclaimed there was a miracle here tonight and no one seemed to notice a whole service and not a peep out of them I can't believe it a little training and a little discipline with the rod and the children gave their parents rest in the life so this parent who've been struggling for years with his kids all it took for there to be a miracle was Michael pearl and just being in his home for a couple of days and being scrutinized here comes one of those Newsies that I find hard to believe I know one young boy who is not spanked when he throws a tantrum so if there was a lot of tampers so his parents give him timeouts instead his parents bought into the timeout fad before he was born it seems he needs timeouts more and more often for longer periods yet they serve no purpose but to give the parents a break sitting in a corner he was heard to say nobody likes me I'm as bad as a devil I never do anything right no he didn't say that Michael prohm doesn't say I heard him say he doesn't say his parents heard him say he says he was her to say notice the passivity that in that language he was heard to say Michael can't tell us who heard him say that because nobody was ever here I'm saying because this child never said that this is not what a three-year-old says nobody likes me I'm as bad as a devil I never do anything right that's just complete fabrication this little fellow is being reared to take his place in a jail cell dark corners and dark closets breed darkness in the soul Michael proto who was talking about doing time outs in dark closets and dark corners I I don't practice timeouts I'm never a habit I my with my children however I don't think that those who use timeouts typically place their children in dark corners for dark closets that came out of your mind that's what's on your mind when you think time I've locked the child in a closet page 104 little foxes spoil the vines we just returned from having supper with neighbors and again he gives us long example how the anger that was allowed to see than his heart led to rebellion though the parents were unaware of it his subsequent actions were the product of his defiled heart so you think you're inviting him over for dinner just a friendly neighborly visit well no Michael pearl is busy judging your parenting and how you are defiling your child's heart here's another contradiction page 107 here's one of those things that are true he's talking about nap times and how children need naps and they might be made to lie still for then happen I agree with that he says when you first begin to train your child to lie down quietly he may whimper in protest which is just a natural expression of disappointment if you ignore whimpering it will pass true my child will not enjoy being laid out to nap they need to lie down anyway they're gonna whimper in protest just ignore it they will stop they will fall asleep I agree with that for unfortunately just two pages later he tells us a child should never in all caps whine or beg now which one is it Michael crow because you just told us then hey if he won't present naptime when you laying down no biggie just be sure never let him whine or beg the book is full of such contradictions and see moms will read this and they will read hobb okay I can never let him whine I can never let him beg if I do I'm defiling his heart and I'm raising a terrorist and he's going to become a criminal and then when he has a disclaimers he just says that to cover his own backside and the parents read right over them page 108 it was the creepy part again 3 year old mother so we're talking Mario the other day of our house a three year old little girl was playing with dolls now throughout the book he will talk about how they babysit a lot of kids just all the time that babysitting other people's children a word of warning parents don't like others especially Christians or people who have this weird over-the-top Christianity just this showboating Christianity we do not allow anyone to babysit our children except my mother-in-law she is a wonderful Christian she's raised my husband raised all the siblings we trust her implicitly I would trust her with any of my children that's the only person we all had to babysit because you simply do not know what people out there like if you if you could tell the good from the bad all these cases of abuse wouldn't be happening so we prefer to err on the side of caution but if I were to allow my children to be babysat the last person in the world that I would want babysitting is Michael pearl well they do a lot of babysitting at their house so there's this three-year-old at the house and he says let me interject all children's dolls should be baby dolls baby no caps not Barbie dolls the fantasy arising from playing with baby dolls causes the child to roleplay mother the fantasy arising from Barbie dolls causes the child to roleplay being a Playboy bunny you are a pervert Michael pearl not three-year-old fantasizes about role-playing being a Playboy bunny that is disgusting nor three-year-old child would think about those things unless they had been molested sexually abused assaulted that is bizarre and out-of-this-world and disgusting page 109 this is going back to the consistency if you gave it a try being 90% consistent you would not be satisfied with the results if a child ever gets his way through begging or whining he will try ten more times until it works again and no amount of sporadic spanking will put a stop to it this is again that unrealistic expectation that even being 90% consistent which I would think is a really good number ninety percent being consistent is worthless if you ever give in to the child's whining if you ever if the child ever gets his way through begging or whining he will try it ten more times until it works we then have another incident on page 110 of his wife he says when we babysit for other people it is always on the condition that we be granted full liberty to discipline and train now why these children just the minute they're away from home and being babysat why it is necessary for these children to be spanked brought into compliance if they're so well-behaved I thought they've just learned to obey commands in general so why he does he need to spank them in the few hours that he has that's just suspect sounds like he's bringing about situations then even bring it to a head just so we can spank them but you know he doesn't leave us to wonder about it because he's quick to follow it up with a story on one occasion Deb that's his wife was keeping a mixed group of about ten children and babies so we have one at all keeping a group of ten children babies from four different families attending a seminars because you know Michael teaches his seminars one couple's first child about 15 months old 15 months old was highly overindulge and showed it he had been trained to expect costs and catering and pacifying he was missing his mother servant well you know what a 15 month old in the care of Michael Pearl ought to be missing his mother and was complaining it was not just the usual I'm sad and lonesome won't someone love me kind of whimpering he said his crying said I'm mad as I'll get up so then dad besides it's showdown time and that's what he says she decided with showdown time so it says she ignored the other children as she now goes to deal with this child handsome a roll escape with the wheels facing upwards and she wants the child to learn compliance by on cue turning the wheels when she says turned the wheel as the child is to turn the wheels and if the child doesn't do it she swats his hand and she keeps doing that until the child is brought into compliance and after so many incidents of swatting beating the child's hand she finally breaks his will and he obeys this arbitrary command of I told you to turn the wheels on this roller skate and now he does it and someone will supposed to believe that this is for his own benefit in the chapter on safety training there are several cool incidents he explains how he trained children not to touch a hot wood stove he doesn't just you know get it wet swarming you I can have the kid touch it and say careful it's hot no he says I would coax the trama over to see the fascinating flames we're talking about a raging fire of course I always wanted to touch so I held them off until the stove got hot enough so they want to touch but it's not okay to touch one it's just more no he waits until it's hot hot enough to inflict pain without burning when the heat was just right I would open the door long enough for them to be attracted by the flames and then would close the door and move away the child would inevitably run to the stove and touch it just as his hand touched the stove I would say hot and usually just took just one time well no kidding your child will only burn the hand like that one time once burned twice shy there but that's just ridiculous to use that as a child training method to actually get a raging hot and burning you could have just maybe had it warm I've taught all my children not to touch the stove without ever having to burn or even touch the hand to a hot stove one time he also talks about keeping children safe around water he has a pond on his property I have a pond on my property called a pool I've never had to employ his methods he said that what he would do with his toddlers is he would take them down to the pond and he would on a warm spring day I followed the first set of wobbly legs still inviting water she played around the edge until she found a way to get down to the bank down the bank to the edge I stood close by as she bent over reaching into the mirror of shining color splash and she went I restrained my anxiety long enough for her to write herself in the cold water and show some recognition over inability to breathe when panic sent in I pulled her out and scolded her for getting close to the pond and then he goes out to talk about how one of his children she just wouldn't fall in I got weary taking walks to the pod don't you hate it when you get so sick of having to go to the pond with your child and them not falling in she just wouldn't fall and you really wanted her to fall in and he was getting tired making these trips how taxing on him have to keep going to the pond and she just will not fall in so to bring the class to a time the graduation I pushed I just nudged her with my foot I just read it distressed her enough to make her not want to play close to the pond well that was wonderful Michael it's really impressive how your child has more sense than you to not fall in the water so you just give her that push to make sure she falls in sounds like she was already staying out of the water even without you doing that I'm now getting to what I consider one of the worst chapters in the book I mean the book is awful throughout but potty I'm training this is a horrendous chapter and he talks in here about how his wife and him discovered on a missionary trip to Central America that the Maya Indians do not die for their babies so he says that at that point they started this weird thing where they don't diaper their newborns and they instead just watch for cues that the child is ready to go on with them take her to the bathroom when she sensed when she his wife sense that Shoshana that's his daughter was about to go she the mom rushed her to the toilet and placed the infant against her bare legs in a spread leg sitting position now in his older book that you can find online he actually says she would place the bare infant against her bare legs in a spread leg position dribbling a little stream of warm water over the child's private parts aided the start of an impending tingle as a child began urinating Deb would say pee pee so there's numerous talk of bathroom functions but this is the worst of them so weird led to we're supposed to believe that the mob having bare legs and the infant being bare going to the bathroom together anytime the in finesse ago is actually saving us time in trouble over diapering and that we're just supposed to I mean I'm trying not to get a mental image of this his wife with her bare legs sitting on the toilet and then the infant with her bare legs sitting over the mom and then mom pouring water over the child's private parts to get a tinkle go on this is just perverted there's nothing normal about this I doubt that that's what they observe the Maya Indians doing and then he goes on to say my mother-in-law was equally skeptical in case you find yourself skeptical until the day my wife said her stop at the next service station the baby wants to go potty they stopped and his Deb came out with a thoroughly relieved three-month-old my mother-in-law became a believer so the three-month-old is on a road trip in a car seat presumably but somehow can communicate I need to go so the mother-in-law obediently pulls over at the station and the three-month-old was then thoroughly relieved I don't know if a three-month-old that has the capacity to hold it and then to express afterward whoa that sure was a relief because I've been holding it for so long but are you ready for his god complex again for a while our bathroom became the end of a pilgrimage for those seeking faith and infant potty training so now here he uses potty training as a spiritual religious exercise because people aren't a pilgrimage and they're seeking faith many a time our red-faced infant girls looked up to see a great cloud remains the witnesses expectantly hovering above them in our large bathroom so why is he telling us this bizarre story red-faced infant girl's a great cloud of witnesses this is again hailing back to this being some kind of a faith exercise some kind of a spiritual exercise why are they red faced Michael Pearl how they read face out of shame they're three months old how can they be red-faced out of shame or are they red face because they're straining well then you're potty training method doesn't work because a three-month-old breastfed infant doesn't strain to the point where they become red-faced maybe they've become constipated through your weird potty training method but why tell us that they're red-faced infant girls again his focus is on these children being girls I thought this method works for both boys and girls why are you telling us that they're red-faced girls it just sounds really creepy and disgusting of course the here comes a disclaimer you know unless you think he's just some freak which you might be led to believe by reading his words one note of caution potty training is not a matter of character training if you fail to train an infant don't let it bother you you will be bothered enough when you change all the stinky diapers pay to have your carpet shampoo and replace the back seat of your minivan you're not a bad parent if you don't potty train your infant early oh thank you Michael pearl for stating the obvious but let's go back to this you will be bothered enough when you change all the stinky diapers so children going in the toilet it's not stinky that's news to me pay to have your carpet shampooed so only people who have diaper babies need their carpet shampoo but that's just ridiculous wouldn't it be the children who don't have a diaper on that might have an accident on the carpet I don't know that any diaper child defiles the carpet unless they take off the diaper and smear its contents but a child that's not in a diaper would be more likely to do that or what about replace the backseat of your minivan I've never had to get my carpet shampooed because of a diaper mess and I've never had to replace the back seat of my minivan he just makes these outrageous claims it's just soda sponge him up you're not a failure if you don't potty training for an early I mean you're gonna have to shampoo your carpet and replace the seats in your van and put up with all the stink but hey that'll be punishment enough for you you poor sap he goes on to talk about a hose when he goes and it's talking about a good friend and neighbor so here again he's picking apart his friends and neighbors and a three year old boy who would go number two in his diaper and he goes on to say first I pointed out that the boy's mother busy with the other children would pick up this big kid several times a day talk sweetly to him lay him on a bed take off the dirty diaper wipe him with a warm damp cloth rub a little lotion on the chipped spots and then put a fresh smooth diaper on him dumping in his pants had become an opportunity to get his mother's undivided attention it says the kid loved the experience and must have found it the highlight of his day this is perverted there's no other way to put this he just sexualized a diaper change number one no three-year-old child goes poop in their diaper several times a day as he here claims number two if he has chafed spots that would be from the mother not changing his diaper often enough maybe she's harried or she forgot or for whatever reason the child was left in a dirty diaper now has a diaper rash she puts on man on somebody who is hairy to the point where the child is getting chafed and the diaper would not take all this time he really slows the pace talk sweetly to him lay him on a bed why he's been entering the language here take off the dirty diaper wipe him with a warm damp cloth rub a little lotion on the Chiefs pots put a fresh Smith he really slows the pace and just makes this account highly central talking about a warm damp cloth talking about a fresh smooth diaper the chafed spots he uses their descriptive language I don't know what parent changes all the diapers on the bed that's bizarre too he just likes to talk about the bedroom here in connection with a diaper change which I find very alarming but no three-year-old life diapered three-year-olds nor three-year-old considers it the highlight of his day to get a diaper change they wanted over and done with so they can go back to playing so he goes on to say that his remedy for this was to hose the child down the next time the boy loaded down his diaper the father took him out and merrily and I might say carelessly washed him off with the autumn chill about 65 degrees in the cold well water I don't remember if it took a second washing or not but a week later the father told me his son was not taking himself to the party it says since then many others have been the recipients of my meddling and it usually takes no more than three cheerful washings in the winter you will have to modify your methods and wash them in the shower or tub just make sure it's not a rewarding experience for the child you know make sure to not make those diaper changes a rewarding experience for the child whatever that means be sure that you are very merry and careless and cheerful as you hose off a poop mess I don't know that anybody would find that Mary or cheerful no matter how they do it but evidently Michael pearl has discovered a way to be gleeful in hosing off a child that has soiled his diaper he then gives a disclaimer bad you know if you have a child who wets the bed understanding is not a conscious act here comes the disclaimer and it can be it cannot be dealt with by discipline and it may be a physical or emotional problem well thank you for giving us that note of warning at the end of this disgusting chapter after you give people these crazy ideas that diaper changes are a rewarding experience that the child uses to get enjoyment from on the chapter on page 130 on persistence this I believe is where people spank their children until they die beat their children really until they die he says but what if the child only screams louder and gets madder give him more of the same if this is the first time he's come up against someone more determined than years it may take a while if you stop the process before the child is voluntarily submissive you have confirmed him the value and effectiveness of screaming and protests once he learns that the reward of a tantrum is a swift spanking a denial of his demands he will never throw another fit you can't train him if you're not consistent if a parent starts early discouraging the first crying demands the child will never develop the habit well that's a bold claim give him more of the same if he's never had anybody show him know that he will you will just have to keep beating and if you do it early enough you know you will have a perfect obedient child the unreasonable disclaimer if you are the least bit angry wait until another time I agree if you are angry you should not be disciplining your child especially not until they finally are brought into complete submission and obedience however he just in the sentence or in the paragraph above told us that if you're not consistent and if you don't see it through you're doing more harm than good so which one is it are we supposed to do in an anger for the sake of being a hundred percent consistent and never letting anything go or are we supposed to let it go and not be consistent for the sake of not spanking and anger the two cannot be reconciled unless you just never experienced anger or frustration which is not humanly possible and then he gives a kiss claim if you do not concur as well after several spankings do not continue to spank again he just throws it in there at the end because he doesn't want to be held culpable when parents abused their children a common problem found in mothers is that they better not mistreat my baby syndrome isn't that a terrible problem the syndrome um from not wanting your baby mistreated I can still remember when I was young looking on with disgust as some swaggering brat sneered out of one side of his mouth and threatened to tell his mother so even from a child Michael Provost just this arrogant judgmental haughty jerk so he sells moms not to be protective of their children and he gives us example while they tried a Bible class my two daughters helped babysit a house full of children under five years old I believe in another part he tells us his daughters at the time were 11 and 9 so he's teaching him Bible class and his two daughters are babysitting a house full of children on the fire one of the mothers returned to find her three old daughter whining from being mistreated by a little fellow on the two so he says that his daughter did indeed confirmed that the two-year-old they confirm that the stumbling table had in fact provoked a class a altercation without sufficient provocation the older and physically superior little girl just sat on the floor and turned the other cheek only to have it walloped also in her presence the mother pitied the little girl who spoke critically offer assailant so the older five-year-old girl who is being attacked by this two-year-old boy turns the other cheek and just you know tells her mom that she was a sail but otherwise just turn the other cheek and the mother pitied the child and it says that my daughter's watched the situation carefully and on several occasions observed him assaulting her so his daughters are such wonderful babysitter's to this house full of five-year-olds and under that they are just watching him assaulting her in several occasions that's his choice of words during the succeeding weeks so this went on for weeks as he's busy teaching as a Bible class where children are supposed to surrender their babies to his daughter's care this keeps happening and finally he says I rejoice to say that this mother is one of the most teachable women I have ever met when confronted the mother realized she was making provision for a daughter to grow up breaking the ninth commandment thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor because it had gotten to a point where the child would say she was hurt when she wasn't hurt she clearly just didn't want to be babysat in this horrible house of horrors she also realized she was cultivating a sour disposition in her little girl she repented and immediately began working on it listen to this buckle your seat belts when the child discovered that her pitiful complaints of abuse were met with skepticism and emotional distance she stopped propagating lies and employed legitimate means to gain attention it's not a lie Michael Crowe you just told us that on several occasions your daughters observed the boy assaulting the girl you said that they all confirmed that the child had provoked an altercation without sufficient provocation yet here you tell us that you finally got to the mall and she was so teachable because she just obeyed you you think that's very positive when the child the fiber and girl discovered that her pitiful complaints of abuse were met with skepticism and emotional distance she stopped propagating her lies and employed legitimate means to get attention so Michael fries just told us that if your daughter comes to you complaining of abuse show them skepticism an emotional distance ooh matera lying and just trying to gain attention it sounds to me like Michael pearl is just trying to conveniently conditioned kids to not go complaining to their parents when they're being abused at his house so that concludes my video on this first to train up a child I would like to issue a very strong warning against this book do not read this book it will have you go away just looking at children with similar disgust as he has it could rub off on you and have that effect it is heart-wrenching to read these stories of these children I'm not against corporal punishment what he propagates is abuse and I think that it goes beyond just the physical abuse of children I would very much warn young moms especially against this kind of parenting you want to tie heartstrings with your children yes there is a time for consistency yes there is a need for discipline however what this book suggests is just straight-up abuse and I would very strongly caution anyone against reading this book thank you for watching if you found this video helpful please watch my other video which is a follow-up where I go more and to Michael pearl himself the person based on the bizarre story he tells of his courtship and honeymoon which I think further supports where we have just seen here in his behavior towards children thank you for watching | Are They All Yours??!? | UCPFMKTPyz5VypzR8h8DeY8g | 2018-04-18 | Creative Commons

GU8ZdTi4wMA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GU8ZdTi4wMA | The Actual Reason Authentically Expressing Yourself Around Women Is Hard Tony Solo Pickup 2 | what you may notice and being a man who is interested in women and interested in having great relationships in his life with others as well that expressing yourself and the way that you want to may be very difficult it may seem like wow everybody's trying to make it seem like it's so easy but why is it so hard for me an expression in itself is she's being able to truthfully be moment to moment truthfully allow yourself to be whatever you want to be moment a moment express through yourself whatever wants to be expressed moments a moment but why is this so hard though why do men find it so hard when they are in front of women to express themselves why do you find it so hard when you're in front of a woman to just express what it is that you want to express and that's a moment to moment that's not that's not just when you get to the bedroom that's not just in the beginning that's a moment to moment difficulty and this difficulty is there because of one particular thing and now get to it later in this video but I want to start off with a story of mine that takes you into expression and understanding it and just noticing why we find it so hard it's men going through my life in expressing myself was the thing that I avoided always I made Shu fully expressing myself I always avoided it in my life I always avoided situations or I have to truthfully express myself because it's very very difficult and I felt that [ __ ] this is so hard why is it that I know what to say right now but I dig I could just can't say it why is it that I want to go speak to this woman but I just can't muster up the courage to go over there and say hello to her why can't I why can't I why can't i this was so much my question I hope you guys to know that I wasn't always like this I wasn't always a man who can express himself truthfully moment to moment I wasn't always the man who can look woman in the eyes and be unperturbed in the fact that he wants to get to know her then he doesn't care that she thinks that he's like this I wasn't always like that I wasn't always a man who can smile and feel really joyful from the inside really be able to express a childlikeness in myself I wasn't always like that no I was not I particularly remember times in my life where I was in tears because I couldn't express myself I was in tears because I just wanted to just authentically live the way I wanted to live just live it out just totally disconnect from the part of myself that wants to evade that wants to avoid being totally and this which you may notice in yourself just constantly wanting to avoid being totally who you are because of something there's a block there when you're around a woman and you want to say something to her there is a block there we around people and you want to just truthfully be authentically be in this moment there is a block that shows up and that's for me I started to dissect what that block was and me and I hope and hopefully you could be able to dissect what that is for you through my story I started to dissect things I start to go okay I can see that one of the things that I'm really avoiding and expressing myself is being seen as a bad person and there's so many students that we have a workshop that come and it's just like they feel that they don't want to express themselves and then as I get down to it I noticed that it's because they want to always be seen as a good person and guess who deal with the same thing I couldn't fully express myself authentically I couldn't tell a woman that her legs was so sexy because they just look toned and a little like she takes care of him I couldn't say that to a woman I couldn't look a woman in the eyes they really for real wanna [ __ ] because guess what I felt like that wasn't the right thing I felt like that was something that was that was that was particularly wrong to do because I don't want to be seen as the bad person so you know what I would rather just not do that and maybe say something that's a half of what I want to say maybe I would say God just so beautiful when in that moment I just wanted to hold intensity with her in the moment maybe I wanted to say something to someone like can you please not talk to me like that or excuse me you're in my way I would like to get around you I would I wanted to do these things but maybe I would say something like hey man hey can I see can I just get around you I know I know I know and I will always do things to release myself out of that place of tension I always did things to do that always that was my life my life was constantly avoiding expressing myself so I can be in the eyes of other people a good person and being seen as a good person to me meant so much because guess what the good opinions of others were right the good pen the good opinions of others meant something to me and as a good opinion of others are well in place now I can just relax so to speak I don't have to worry about me saying something to get rid of that label that I like so much so many of you guys are probably attached to the label like I was of being a good person you're probably just not you probably just can't go up to a woman and say excuse me you look sexy you probably can't do that because you're afraid of looking like a bad person you're afraid of the woman looking at you as a creep as a sleaze as a man who is disrespectful whatever it is you were afraid of the woman looking at you it's not the good person that you want her to see us I was so attached to everybody see me as a good person so attached to it to the point where I always did things to hear from people good affirmations to hear good things from others to make sure the woman said things like you made my day to make sure the woman said things to let me know that I wasn't doing something creepy I always wanted to be in that light of I am not creepy I am a good person she sees me as a good person this person that sees me as a good person that feels good and as I'm being seen as a good person what does that do for me that consistently allows me to play out the facade that I am a good person in every situation I'll look at the girl sexually in it she goes why you're looking at me like that immediately I feel I don't want to be seen as the bad person so I go I was just looking like that because I was just kidding just completely avoiding it because I was afraid of sitting in that place of tension just afraid of just totally being there that's what I was avoiding the woman seeing me is a bad man because I wanted every woman to see me as a good person and you may do that to as many of the guys who follow my channel you may be somebody as well who can connect to the same phenomenon of just wanting to live but at the same time being blocked by this thing of wanting to be a good person and as you strive to be a good person always you miss out on the other part of yourself the other part of yourself that that's very savage that's very very penetrative that's very very unmoving and powerful and strong you miss out on that part because that's the part that shakes up the world that's the part that shakes up a woman that's the part that makes a woman actually turned on when she's around you that's the part of you that makes a woman feel safe around you it's that other part that you're actually blocking from her because you're blocking that in yourself you're blocking that from her she can't feel the full capacity of you as an authentic man because you are blocking that from yourself and you are just allowing yourself to just be in this place up always want to be seen as a good person as long as that's in place I'm cool and then I went okay you know what since I don't always want to be seen as a good person am I willing to be seen as the bad person am I willing to be seen as a man who is sleazy the man who is disrespectful the man who is rude am I willing to be seen as that and I started to dissect the more and I went yep I wanted to be seen as this but I know it's gonna be scary because I'm constantly up against my old facade which is scary the old egotistical front of I am a good person I'm constantly up against that and I was like okay I'm used to being seen as as as a good person and now I'm willing to be seen as a bad person but what's really underneath both of these what's really underneath both of these and I started to notice me this is now what I'm gonna tell you guys I said later in the video what I started to notice is this until I can sit and intensity this is when I'll be able to live on both sides fully because to be a man that's a good person is to just have good intention as you do things that's all it means when you have good intention as you do things it doesn't matter what you say people can take it whatever way they want to and you need to allow them to take it the way they're going to take it but as long as you have good intention behind it you are a good man that's the thing about it and I went even when I say to a woman you look [ __ ] sexy that's coming from a place of good intention that's not coming from the place of bad intention or I'm saying that because I want to [ __ ] her like right now in this moment only I'm not saying it from a place of bad intention where I'm just saying that so she can see me as this [ __ ] top dog dude no I'm standing from a place of total genuineness total being genuine with the woman totally being real that I like you I don't know who you are but this is the way you affect me and this is I don't care if you feel this to be bad or right I still want to say this to you can you stay in the place of intensity that happens once you do express yourself this is now the place where you need to start to go can i express myself and remain with the intensity that comes with it that's the real question once you can say yes to that once you can go out there and start to do that what you start to notice is that no matter what you do people will see you as good and bad even when you have good intentions but at least you can stay with the intensity of what you feel to be good because anything you do from a place of good intention is good if I say to someone man I think you're overweight I'm not standing for a place of bad intention I'm standing from place of total good intention I'm not saying you can say to somebody you can kill somebody instead it's from a good place of intention because some people twist that in in war and they go yeah you can kill somebody because you're doing it for your country a lot of times they're being led to do that but I'm just saying naturally do you really feel genuine we around people that you really feel genuine when you're around women which means can you send the intensity of the fact of even when you express yourself in a way that will seem like a bad person are you willing to sit with the intensity this is what it is this is what I came to us like I can sit with the intensity when I'm in front of women and others and that came to me through me going out there and continuously allowing myself to express myself genuinely what do I mean by express myself genuinely I mean I had to start really being there with the woman I had to start saying compliments to the woman that I really want to say I had to risk the fact that a woman feeling like I'm weird feeling like I'm strange feeling like what kind of compliment is that feeling like why would a guy say something to me like this I had to risk that in the beginning because I was like [ __ ] some of my compliments to a woman is simply you are perfectly my size and pretty at the same time that's that I had to roll with what was genuine to me I had to start saying to women when I was in front of him that I don't know what to say I just know that I want to say hello to you that we'll look that is was genuine to me and I had to get used to saying that when I'm in front of a woman I had to be used to debt and I also had to get used to asking the woman questions that I really want to ask her I had to get used to expressing myself in a ways that I really want to express myself when I'll be in front of a woman I had to get used to so tell me do you have a good imagination it's just like uh yeah and I go what would be what would it be like boom I had to get used to that I had to get used to when I was in front of a woman when when I would just be talking to her I was just going which is like yeah it's just like is something wrong what makes you happy and she's like ah that's strange like oh yeah it is strange but I want to know then she goes I don't know oh my god yeah you do just give yourself in time we don't have to be in a rush I had to get used to genuinely expressing myself like this when I'm in front of a woman because when I can genuinely express myself like this I can relax this is what I noticed guys I noticed that when I was genuinely expressing myself I was trying things out and I was like [ __ ] I just have to just go with what I feel and I was just genuinely expressing myself authentically expressing myself this is when relaxation starts to come in I was able to just be there in front of the girl and not be freaked out about what I'm gonna say next because I wasn't worried about how can I get this girl I was just only interested in saying what I need to say genuinely say anything I want to say all the way up to I had to get used to that one on one night stand with girls that I give them a gourmet experience that I do things like like I met I remember particularly I was in the bathroom with a girl and I was in the nightclub as I'm with this girl within minutes we start kissing and then I pulled her into this bathroom and in the Budapest Assist bar called interesting and mini you've been to Budapest I pulled into this bathroom when we locked the door and I just started thinking her and that's some finger in her I start to notice that I really want to have this incredible experience with this woman so as I'm fingering her I just start telling her like would you like it like this how would you like it like this and she's like yeah like that it's just fine and then I go okay do you want it faster or do you want it slower you got to realize we're in a high-intensity situation high intensity I just brought her into the bathroom within minutes and that's when that's high intensity situation I'm fingering her and as I'm doing this and I'm quite actually where I'm actually playing with her clitoris this she goes who are you she's snaps out of it like who are you and I just look at her and I keep her eyes and I'm doing this and they should go sorry we can't do this because I pull down my pants and then at one point you know she didn't want to do it but she can feel that this is experience when we will be very different FastTrack later you know we're in a bedroom and I'm going down to her and it's just like she's like oh she's because because she was like trying to remember the experience she's like I don't I don't feel you licking me because she wanted me to lick her [ __ ] she's like I don't feel you licking me and I was like if you say that again then I'll stop stop saying it to me I had to get used to that's the way I want to express myself genuinely do you see how like that seems like that super to direct or it seemed like that's too much that seems like it's too much but that is what wants to be expressed through me there's so many times I've expressed myself like that so many times after that moment well I when I have to start doing this another story there was another girl that I was talking to here in Budapest as we went on the date she wouldn't let me hug her and then I try to hug her again and she's like no then at the end of the day because she didn't let me hug her when I met her she shouldn't let me hug her at the beginning the date or shouldn't let me hug her any time through it I just said the end of the date and said are you gonna be like this the second time we meet she's like yeah I just have these rules and I'm just like alright well I just have to say this would be the last time that I see you because being physical is important to me can you guys see that I have to start expressing myself genuinely I have to start going what does it mean to be true for me in relation to women in others and women and others are the ones who I have the most trouble with doing this the situations that I went into after me really allowing myself to genuinely express myself change my whole life it did because remember life is a balance between engagement which means expression and also moments of silence a moments a set of spaced moments of meditation so to speak or awareness is the base and as my life unfolded in history as is still now unfolding and I'm expressing myself more and more and more genuine and much more authentically what's happening just for me is that this unfolding this amazing unfolding of me just being able to live the life that I want to live that completely changed my whole way of living with women and you know women started to view me in a different way they start to see that my way of seducing is very different than anybody out there you know why I start to genuinely express myself very differently I'm not a clone of anybody if you look at the way i seduce look at my channel I am NOT a clone of anybody and I'm not here to make you guys a clone of me I'm here to make you you so the only way for you to be you though this is genuinely express yourself this is authentic expression this is being willing to have a woman call you weird because you genuinely express something being willing to walk away because you genuinely feel that genuine expression this is the way learn to sit in the intensity of what it means to be a bad person what it means to be somebody who could be potentially called a bad person and as you start to develop a different relationship to intensity in relation to being a good person or a bad person this changes you as well as well as I've changed okay guys that's all I have for you today and like I always say who you are is valuable for that what you want in life and in relation to women it's just realizing it that's it it's just realizing it and I'll continue to make videos for you guys so you can realize it so you can go out there and

tdkwPzNnx1U | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdkwPzNnx1U | Medical Student Debt Reaction (Yikes!) - Rachel Southard | this is the number that I showed on Tick Tock and Instagram I'm dead all right so it has been quite a bit of time now I took probably like two or three months off part of that was because I was lazy part of it was because I was burnt out but nonetheless we're back what better video to make than one about student debt involving one of my fellow YouTube and physician colleagues Rachel Southard and I still know how to pronounce her name southern south herd I feel like Southern would be the right way but nonetheless let's get into the video welcome back to the channel everybody for those of you who are new around here my name is Michael AKA Dr chellini and I'm a board certified Diagnostic and Interventional radiologist on today's video like I said we're going to be going over Rachel southard's debt video and I started to watch a little bit of this video but I paused it it's mostly like a vlog but I haven't seen the meat of it which is the student debt stuff I did see her mention her student debt burden on Instagram recently and it was a bit alarming I was trying to preface this video with that and then a whole bunch of people tagged me and sent this video to me on Instagram if you don't follow me on Instagram go ahead and do that up here Dr Cellini so I have no choice but to watch this video with you all and talked about it and I'm assuming it's going to be like all the other crazy student debt videos that I've done in the past a huge student at Burton and me just getting angry at the cost of medical education just just a normal day so let's get into it okay I got this email from my school called the college cost meter paint she kind of alluded to some of this on Instagram but I'm curious to see what the whole thing is I'm just wanting to talk about why it costs so much to go to school in the United States not just medical school I know that undergraduate all that stuff it costs so much money but medical school I mean it's cost I think okay the amount of loans that I have right now 300 this is how much money I have in loans right now I don't know if that's from med school or undergraduate if it's undergraduate and med school loans and that's the starting figure it's a bit alarming and obviously if you've seen any of my videos you know that I absolutely abhor the medical education costs they're Insanity the fact that you have to spend a hundred thousand dollars a year to go to med school when we're already lacking doctors in our country it's Insanity a lot of of you are asking if that's just tuition hold on let's read this tuition plus living be mindful of the expenses of living in Southern California rent food resources School application Subway locations residency adaptations blah blah a lot of student loans in my bank account and have not spent the entire Mountain that I have received okay I didn't realize that she was in California so obviously the cost of living in California is super high compared to a lot of places in the U.S she probably had to take out extra loans just to survive in California on top of the exorbitant tuition costs which I don't know what they are but given that that is her student loan debt from med school it's pretty high it's not the highest I've seen pretty darn high and no that is tuition I think my tuition's around a little over 60 000 and that's gone that's increased over the last four years every year they increase it see that's the crazy part too like I've done many other videos on this topic sixty thousand dollars is like the average now for a med school costs especially if you're out of State student I have seen as high as like a hundred plus thousand dollars I have seen as low as thirty thousand dollars which is still crazy but nonetheless this is just the time we live in now I don't know why I why they just it increases but it does and I I couldn't tell you what changes or where the money goes or what happens I know that most schools increase their tuition every year because they can because that's my biggest problem it's like okay we know there's inflation out there are they raising the tuition costs based on inflation but then the cost to borrow a loans is still just as high like doesn't make any sense to me how they can just continue to raise tuition rates not provide any other resources or claims that makes their school better but they just charge more for it it's like having a used car that I'm like this is a twenty thousand dollar car but you know what this year it's worth twenty one thousand dollars because I don't know I just think it's worth 21 000 like what's the logic behind raising the tuition there's no system in place that's checking on how much these tools are raising their tuition rates and that includes college and universities they're just raising them to raise them to make more money and they're just allowed to do so and I guess that's because people will always attend regardless of the cost I don't know it's like just supply and demand kind of thing it's not good like I'm not I wish the other thing with that I'm just gonna keep you know you know I get excited about this stuff eventually the student loans that you're able to take out are not going to cover the cost of tuition like there is a cap on how much government student loans you can actually take out you can't just take out like 200 000 a year to cover tuition what happens is you'll likely have to reach the maximum threshold that you can take out from the government the subsidized unsubsized loans and you may have to get extra private loans on top of your maxed out government loans to pay for this tuition in this current trajectory in which the tuition rates just keep Rising without stopping I got really upset about this and talked about it on Instagram because we honestly need to start a conversation about this because from what I've seen on the internet I feel like I'm one of the few people who have actually shown their loan numbers and been like hey this is how much that I'm gonna have to pay see this is why I like her because she's exactly right she's real she doesn't hide it and this is what people need to see especially pre-med students who are like oh you know I want to go to Yale undergrad take out loans Harvard for med school take out loans and then do you know an eight-year research specialty what and then go into a lower paying specialty because that's what they enjoy these are all things you need to talk about and consider before going into med school oh since Med students at least way I thought I was like well I don't care how much it costs to get into med school I don't care how much it costs to go to med school I want to be a physician and that's the only thing I want to do in my lifetime so of course I don't care what it takes I don't care if it costs triple the amount that I have to pay as long as I get to become a physician and have that knowledge and help someone else of course I'm gonna do it I feel the exact same way she does and that's exactly how I felt I didn't have anybody helping me go through med school and I didn't care because I would have gone to med school that was the goal of mine that's what I enjoy doing I love medicine still do would have gone to med school again I just kept my eye on the prize and you can't worry about all this student debt burden that's going to be sneaking up on you later on down your career and it's so far in the future that you can't really even think about it anyways you know you get to the point where you're like I just want to go to med school I just want to get into any med school I don't care how much it costs 10 years down the road you get hit with this fat Bill and you're like man I should have done that differently we all keep our heads down and be like okay like we're just tuition tuition be saying you know even though we went through a pandemic where all of the academics changed where we started teaching ourselves on zooms from pre-recorded lectures um or you know we didn't get to finish our cadaver Labs or maybe all the in-person activities that we used to do we do we don't do anymore these are great points so we're continuing to raise tuition rates year after year but the last two years especially everything was just remote so you didn't even interact with the stroll you didn't interact with other students in the classroom you just watched lectures you interact with your professors it should technically cost less for the past two years but nope just keeps going up because YOLO you know verbatim basically what I'm saying from my little rant that I had on Instagram one might say that hey you're not getting your money's worth compared to what the education system used to be like before the pandemic 100 agree with that she's on to something the problem is what are we gonna do about it like we're just going to call up Harvard I keep doing Harvard a hard time but that's just the one I think about the most St John Harvard Med school and be like yo your tuition is too high and they'll be like and I'd be like I just want you to know that it's high they'll be like so people still come here all right educated like pandemic rules and stuff like that so I was actually talking about this with one of my colleagues I think last week because you don't realize a lot of specialty training was cut short during covid you know my last six months of training I was doing IR I probably skipped out on like six weeks of ir training which didn't matter because I did a whole year Fellowship anyways but the other side of that is new medicine residents for example who started residency or their internship during covid spent the first year or two taking care of just coveted patients because that was all that was in the hospital so you don't get the wide breadth of patience and see a wide variety of disease processes because covid was what was occupied in the hospital at that time so you do miss out on a lot of Education we don't think about this kind of stuff but also in that same respect like she's talking about in med school should you really be paying a premium when you're not getting your money's worth this is the number that I showed on tick Rock and Instagram thank you foreign that's that's a large number that hurts I don't know what to say about that because that makes me so angry when I see a number like that for those of you I don't know if you can read that it's 847 251.60 in total student loans which I'm assuming that involves her undergrad as well as her med school that makes me so angry you're telling me someone who I think she wants is applying to OB GYN so a future OB GYN has to undergo 847 000 in student loans to practice as an OB GYN what are we doing here we have to dive in more of this because this is like this is gonna make me lose sleep that almost 900 000 number is an estimate of how much they they believe I will pay by the time I finish paying off my loans so in x amount of years from now I will have paid almost nine hundred thousand dollars in loans oh I see so it's like that's the interest rate compounded over x amount of years she'll be repaying it some people are like aim as an average MD school it is like one of the more expensive do schools but it's you know a couple thousand here and there that used to be true where dios rules were a little more expensive than some of the MD schools but they're all expensive across the board unless you have some unique situation where you have in-state tuition at one of the few schools that have decreased or subsize tuition for in-state folks you're going to be paying a lot of money so it looks like her actual student loan burden is like 350 which is actually sounds crazy that I'm this is coming out of my mouth but that's not that bad all things considered here 847 000 that would be over I'm assuming like she paid the bare minimum over 30 years or whatever and that's just compounded interest and that goes to show how interest can absolutely destroy your bank account let's dive in here let me see what the average cost or average salary rather an OB GYN makes I think this is more right maybe it's like around 300 000. it's still technically I mean someone will probably tell me for saying this but I think it's still technically a primary care spec specialty or a primary care field in a way so I think the average is probably like 275 to 350. if I had to guess so basically if you just get no taxes taken out and you spend zero dollars in a year you can pay it off in a year but obviously that's not going to happen there's a huge meme on the internet that was like lol med student Med schools raised tuition by ten thousand dollars next year I'm not trying to just make like a generalization and I hope that I don't get in trouble for saying this but honestly like I have questions and concerns why does it cost this much to go to medical school at the end of the day she shouldn't be worried about having this issue I mean I talked about this all the time on my channel and I was even going to make a video that I deleted that didn't work out where I was just going to call Med schools and ask them like why their tuition was so high but it didn't work out for a number of reasons but we won't get into that but yeah these are questions that everybody should be asking here like what are we doing here people so there's some people that are making money at this stroll I don't know who maybe the dean some sort of Education executive who knows somebody's making money and it ain't the med students where's the money going why does it cost so much these are the questions that I have and I wish I had the answers to them but I don't but this is just something that I think we need to start talking about you know for her there's going to be a couple options so she works for a non-profit hospital or non-profit practice she may have an opportunity over 10 years to get her loans forgiven at the end of those 10 years if she makes certain incremental payments based on her income that's always an option the problem is you lower your income Expectations by working at a non-profit Hospital you have to kind of do a calculation if you want to work in private practice as an OB GYN and make more money on average probably this is just allegedly this is from my own like what I've seen in the world or you worked in a private practice and make more and pay off those loans faster those are kind of your options that's what I kind of had to deal with when I was going through this the good thing and the bad thing is that she only has to pay incremental payments probably like 10 or 15 of her salary during residency if she's on an income based repayment plan so that's not terrible that's what I did and the good thing is you don't make any money residency so your payments are going to be pretty low they're pretty attainable right the other option is to do what I did after your residency and refinance your loans at a very low interest rate which is another good option especially if you don't go into academics or don't go into a non-profit hospital so she's gonna have to do a lot of research she can call me with any questions she has you know I love this stuff and I study this stuff to know in before I finish med school and I think it's important for Med students especially during their fourth year of med school to really sit down and figure out exactly how you're going to attack your student loans you need to be thinking about this your whole residency career and I know you have a lot to learn during residency but I'm telling you this is like top priority because seeing that number once you get that attending salary after putting it off for seven to ten years and then realizing you have to pay three thousand dollars a month every single month after taxes which already destroys your paycheck to be done with you don't have that much money over compared to what you probably thought you would shout out to Rachel before making this video hopefully she'll watch this one and uh yeah let me know if you have any questions Rachel I'll be happy to help you all right so that officially concludes this video thanks again to Rachel for making this video and shedding some light on this whole situation because it is of utmost importance for people who are going into med school and for the ones who have to take out student loans you have to think about this stuff trust me on that note make sure you smash the like subscribe button follow my Instagram and take stock if you don't already and as always always now I'm gonna start making more videos I'll see you all on the next one bye foreign [Music] | Dr. Cellini | UCiPW7OlzTfQjR_vLlkYPZCg | 2023-03-01 | Creative Commons Attribution license

IkAaaxalRsE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkAaaxalRsE | Sommelier Liquidity AMA with Alex Momot from Peanut.Trade | all right uh we are live uh i'm zucky from sommelier protocol um and i am speaking to alex beaumont uh from peanut trade um can you tell us a little about yourself and peanut trade alex yeah sure so my name is alex mohammad i'm from ukraine and i'm in crypto since 2013. uh it's quite a while so i entered at that point of bull run at that time but still it was quite early and after that i made several startups in bitcoin space i was involved in bitcoin mining equipment production and then we established remy a cyber security startup based on blockchain and recently one year ago we fully converted to device space and now we making a lot of products for uh so-called dark forest of ethereum so we are trying to make ethereum ecosystem more friendly to regular users okay so why don't you maybe explain a little bit about what the dark forest is yeah so basically dark forest it's a name for a lot of problems that could face regular users during certain operations with defy space let's say if you are trying to perform a big order a lot of bots sniper boards during listing or sandwich boats or salmonella attack they could withdraw your liquidity they could try to send order in front of you it's a regular front running from classic markets that recently appeared on blockchain in blockchain space and it means that you will lose part of your money due to this kind of bots that's why we creating uh products uh that could use private transaction it means that uh your transaction will not go to mempo because the primary source for all the bots is uh mempool because it could be tracked analyzed and the bots could make something with your transaction because all you can see uh all activity you can see on blockchain usually uh absolutely open for everybody and it is both possibility but elsa could be a problem so that's why you should be very careful with uh even simple transactions like selling or making a swap or uh adding liquidity during listing of your project and we could help with making it absolutely safe okay so yeah this is i and i think this you know fits well with your history because you know you uh you have some exposure to the mining industry right um and so you know the the okay so what what's the core idea the core idea here is you know zucky is it goes to goes to uh uniswap or anywhere else um and wants to make a swap okay and we cert we assert we assert a certain price uh for the coins that we want to swap into um yeah so uh so when you see that price and you decide to swap it you've now published basically to to the entire world uh by the mempool your intention to make a buy and the price at which you're willing to pay um and that now it creates this whole world of what we call mev minor extractable value um where uh where there is a there based on the slippage that you have set in your transaction there is an opportunity for uh for a miner to profit um by uh by essentially by by front running your trade yeah that's right i can say that it's not a minor itself usually it's uh teams separate teams that has a agreement with miner you make a certain order of transactions and as a consequence it could be a such an attack but yeah generally right so um so basically what peanut.trade is doing is providing um essentially a private connection to miners uh or to the binding pools uh to enable transactions that don't appear in the mempool yeah that's why that's why of our ability but we prefer to build the final products based off based on that ability so we can offer connection with miners we offer solution to interact with market with uh no possibility for mav to withdraw part of your profits um okay can you maybe to explain a little bit more about these solutions yeah so basically we have uh uh fino it's our solution for sending uh tokens without without ethereum on the address so uh let's say if we're talking about non-custodial wallet usually uh the uh wallet should create a lot of accounts for many users and when somebody will send you let's say usdc you will need a small fraction of ethereum on the address to send it uh to other address and it could be a problem for the user because he should go to exchange buy some ethereum and then put it on that address and only after that you will be able to perform the separation and with finno we could inbuilt this solution for non-custodial wallets and even for custodial sometimes to remove that kind of trouble for regular user and that's one example how mev would work better for user instead of withdrawing liquidity from them but in the opposite way it creates additional benefit another solution is protection of a project during listing on uniswap or pancake swap we can do a private mining of uh liquidity heading it means that no sniper bot will be able to buy a huge amount of token during that initial listing and damp immediately after that on the users who will try to buy at the first order or first swap and another our product is liquidity management uh for unisop version 3 so maybe you heard about this new concept of units of operation 3 when you can choose a range of price where your liquidity will work but the problem here is that you should manually control it and check is everything okay with the price because otherwise you will have a huge impermanent loss and your liquidity won't work and you will lose money that's why we are building uh this kind of manager and operations will be performed via hidden transactions so with using the same relay to miners so no bots will be able to interact so this is the examples of how mev could work for the users or uh how it could protect users from other robots so it's um it seems like you guys are operating in very much the same um sort of domain as what flashboxes are trying to do um with uh have you what do you think about sort of the flashbots project um oh actually i'll ask an even better question okay so mev itself is very controversial uh uh in the sort of ethereum defy space um you know some there's some view of it as it should be democratized uh there's another view that it should be eliminated um what are you what what thoughts do you have on on sort of that question well uh first of all i think that the fact is much more important than explanation of that fact so basically we already have all that situation with mev and the basics of mev goes from the primary uh architecture of blockchain mempool and blockchain fully could be seen in uh any way from any place so uh you can track everything is going on on blockchain and that's why uh mev exists uh our actions should be somehow to interact with that uh of course it's adding complexity to our everyday usage of ethereum based applications but we should somehow create a regular product that will use that options that mev could give us because it's not only bad things like everybody could think now uh it could be also a good thing and the one of the most important things we can see right now it's because our relay and flashback relay and other similar solutions decreased price of fees in ethereum network because now transactions from bots and transactions from users separated into separate channels and uh there are no competition in fees between these two types of operators on blockchain so bots uh come comparing with both fees comparing with other bots fees and miners never will choose uh take both transaction instead of user transactions like it was maybe six months ago uh this and this advantage came to us because of existence of such solutions and uh it is better for whole ecosystem uh but still mev uh i think that mev is impossible to stop or completely remove because otherwise we should make ethereum blockchain something like moderate blockchain but uh i think it's completely impossible because of the essence of smart contract concept so what do you think is the so right you know in terms of trying to build these sort of private uh uh uh interactions with mempools on one hand you have like what flashbots is trying to do which is trying to build a protocol for doing this on the other hand it seems like what peanut.trade has tried to do i would characterize it as a being a service provider i.e like provide the service of private transactions rather than having a protocol um for minors to engage with private transactions what do you think are the trade-offs between these two approaches uh you means uh what what is the trade-off between like like peanut trade or and something like flashbacks uh okay so uh let's discuss what is the flashbots itself because currently i think that i'm not a big fan of conspiracy theories but as for me uh all the concept of flashbots is quite a good for ethereum ecosystem and i think that either vitalik buterin or consensus or somebody else from ethereum foundation trying to somehow help them because all of that situation with the uh on-chain arbitrage and the fees on ethereum now is much better than six months ago and the main reason for that is uh that the flash flashbacks uh taking 99.9 percent of all profits and send it directly to miners so uh miners has additional source of revenue from that and the decks on chain arbitrage is dead right now so um it's a very specific uh situation where uh just in two months the competition completely killed the big area for taking revenue and i think that all searchers currently working on flashbots environment need to find something else to earn money and as the consequences we can see the low fees as i told previously so uh our ideas here is completely different we don't try to uh use same concept like flashbots we trying to build the final products for regular users and for uh maybe projects or interesting protocols like non-custodial wallets uh like uniswap and others and uh we just using the good advantage side of mev and the idea to put all that inefficiency of the market inside of our smart contracts and deliver additional value to the users and the trade-off for flashbot service is currently uh only i can see a problem for searchers in the in this market so arbitrage yours uh losing money not users uh and when we can see london when we will be able to see london upgrade so eap 1559 and other upgrades will completely change the situation with ethereum economics and and i think that it will be beneficial for all participants of the network and maybe we should wait this three weeks or so to see what's going to happen my personal feeling is that the situation will be much better than now to hold a system and we will have new benefits and new advantages without that troubles we have now with all that revenue goes to miners but still with such a big volatility i can see a real problem in that because as we know in maybe one year or maybe two years uh it would be a fully proof of stake and it will be a huge problem for current uh miners to change something and the biggest tradeoff i can see right now is not in that layer uh i think that the biggest problem will be existence of super stakers such as centralized exchanges uh and they will be able to control much bigger part of network uh then miners could control now because if you're talking about minor pools it's a certain equality for different players but if we will talk about centralized exchanges you know that all that five or ten exchanges will control everything and i hope that other projects such as slido uh could be able to take significant part of market because they are from the ecosystem and not from centralized space um yeah i'm a big fan of lido um the uh uh the so yeah i think that kind of brings us bring just really nicely into this question of of what is going to happen you know so right now we have the emergence of uh you know unit swap going live on optimism uh yesterday which was big news um and uh and the you know the coming merge and shift to proof of stake um and i think you you sort of started to cut over really nicely like how all of those things like uh how all of this sort of is moving around um the uh the uh the privacy problem and the mev problem um to various layers of the stack um and so uh so yeah um so it's it sounds like you have a lot of work cut out for you uh as all of these things are are shifting and we all do um uh so what's coming up for for peanut what what's what's what's on the horizon what's the what's the what's the next end user product that you're gonna be building or that's coming out well we always have a lot of ideas and it's really hard to implement all of that so we should choose uh and our current goal to use our two products upcoming products fino and smart lp so fino it's uh sending uh tokens without ethereum and uh smart albeit's uh liquidity manager for unis operations three uh it should come this month uh maybe in better version and next month it will be fully in production and uh we will try to use all the advantages of our approach to deliver the best performing solution and our next step will be to make aggregation of two our products hedge solution and smart lp h solution is made for protecting users from impermanent laws and currently with unis operation 3 it's a lot of troubles for users to understand how they should really manage all that liquidity how they should choose appropriate pool in uni swap because as you know it could be a tricky solution because if you will choose a very big pool like it was on uni swap version 2 with higher capital efficiency your earnings will be not so big and it means that you should try to find the proper balance because a range of liquidity it means capital efficiency uh between size of the pool so it should it not uh it should be not very big and it should be a very good uh volumes on that so your fees will be enough to cover your impermanent loss because if your range will be too small in the opposite side you will have a bigger impairment loss recently a very good discussion between uh yearn founders and hayden adams take place in twitter and i think it's a very good discussion that could show everybody it is quite a new concept and we should spend certain time to understand how all of that will work together and our idea is to add uh solutions that will be able to cover your empowerment loss on the one your asset let's say if you are providing usdc and ethereum so you can buy a hatch during that initial idea of liquidity uh and it will protect you from decreasing the price of ether increasing your overall yield after that period could heavily uh improve uh user experience with unison and it's uh i'm just looking at the hedge product page it looks like you sourced the the head the the put and call options from centralized exchanges so what you guys are actually doing is essentially composing cfi and defy uh yeah currently we have no choice because there are no enough liquidity on uh decentralized option platforms and i hope that during several months it will be better situation with that and our primary goal will make to make to make everything completely unchain but it's not an easy to do today so that's why we had taken the liquidity from centralized exchanges as well fantastic yeah that's really cool yeah thank you yeah that's very cool very very cool um anything else you want to talk about or uh or uh or tell to our audience um the this this this so you know right the other thing is you have a wait list for uh for the for these uh products um how do liquidity providers uh who are listening get access yeah so uh basically on our website you can left your mail and we will contact you after uh smart lp will be available for public and uh currently we have more than one thousand with something uh applications with huge amount of liquidity so i think it's a very big problem and the very interesting thing is that uh we have no direct uh advertisement of this product until the very late time and it means that people trying to find something like that and uh it will be a huge problem in the next months and we are very grateful for those who left that applications uh you gave us uh idea that we should uh spend more time on that and uh personally for me we have a uh such kind of uh separation in our team with favorite products and smart lp is my favorite products because it's quite a complex one uh it's really hard to find appropriate feed for or balance between capital efficiency and permanent loss uh and all of that and how fast we should change the position and to understand what all that math behind the units of operation 3 from their team so i think that if you're interested in such a product definitely come to our website and left your application uh it will help us to understand how many people interested in the product and we will spend more efforts to that and uh please uh spend a little bit more time to understand what is impermanent loss and how it could affect your uh yield and your profitability during providing liquidity and the special uh thanks to ethereum team because uh they pushing all of that uh all the upgrades and despite miners have quite a big opposition currently uh we know that eap 1559 will be beneficial for all the uh players in the game and of course about the proof of stake it's a lot of uh discussions but uh i'm sure that uh proof of stake will be much better the only concern i have uh currently is the proper balance of that centralized players after it will be a fully full transition on ethereum 2.0 we will have proper players who will understand the importance of distributed world and nobody will try to play in something that could affect the stability and the architecture for ethereum ecosystem yeah i mean that's fantastic um thank you for your time uh and this was fantastic and i'm sure that there are a lot of people who like didn't really know about all these things that you guys are building um so this i think was a great educational opportunity for a lot of people about uh um sort of some of the i guess uh less well-known uh uh products out there for dealing with the mev problem um uh dealing with the private transaction problem and uh building uh building new products on top of uh being a uni swap liquidity provider yeah sure if you have any questions please come to our telegram group we'll be happy to answer even if it's just general questions about ecosystem we'll be happy to help everybody thank you thanks alex yeah thank you for invitation | Sommelier | UCPPDmxRxSm9Y5KsTTOyuudA | 2021-07-19 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

H7E_dr8KcpM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7E_dr8KcpM | President Reagan's Interview with Foreign TV Journalists on May 27, 1987 | thirty seconds seems to be taken a long time let me be mr. president the first Italian to welcome you in advance to my country I want to thank you for giving us the opportunity to hear from from you your points of view on the major issues that will be discussed at the Venice summit I am Joseph El Gato from REI tg1 Italy and these are my colleagues Tim Ewart ITM Great Britain Jacques AB Bhushan it's Anton de France now Turkey Machida NHK Japan Fritz flight girl ard Germany and Craig Oliver CTV Canada so let me ask you frankly this do you feel uncomfortable in going to Europe right now considering that in one hand there are great challenges for the Western world but consider the winds of trade wars and the Persian Gulf situation and in the other hand all the seven leaders they have problems at home they look a little weak and yourself have been damaged by the iran-contra affair well no I'll tell you we keep in touch to such an extent the seven hours the leaders of seven countries represented here and consult and none of us go off on our own very much without keeping the others informed so I feel that it's a it's a very good time I think we have problems that can better be handled as we discussed them there I think that the subject will deal with macroeconomics the the things that we decided on in Japan a year ago that we were going to do about trying to make trading more fair remove some of the obstacles market obstacles to see if we could not stimulate more growth in all of our countries economically things of that kind and of course the east-west situation will be discussed and although the matter is also the matters that we launched again in Japan and that is our handling terrorism and so forth so I'm looking forward to it so talking about the obstacles are you ready for example to cut the budget deficit that is a truth they say of so many problems not only in the United States but also abroad and do you think that maybe the American people have to tighten their belts well as far as the government's tightening its belt that's long overdue I've been trying to bring that about ever since I have been here you know our governmental system I know some others are hard to understand that system there has been resistance in the Congress and from the opposition party to making some of the cuts we want to make if I had been given the budget I asked for in 1982 for that first budget of 1982 that I could have the cumulative deficits through 1986 would be two hundred and seven billion dollars less than they are so we're continuing to do this and now we have a congressional bill that was passed signed into law the gramm-rudman-hollings bill which has a definite plan for reducing the deficits annually until down the road in just a few years we will have a balanced budget at the same time I am still seeking a constitutional change that will then require a balanced budget every year of our government and I think it I agree with all the others that our deficit spending by a government is one of the economic problems that has an effect on on everything and on all on our trading partners mr. president you'll be meeting mrs. Thatcher when you go to Venice she may shortly be replaced as Prime Minister of Great Britain will you preserve the special relationship between America and Great Britain whoever is in power in Britain well I think the relationship between our two countries has been an almost family relationship for many years and many different governments of of the United Kingdom in the past I don't want to seem to in any way try to influence the election in England but I have to tell you that I have great admiration for the manner in which Brian Minister Thatcher has handled not only the domestic fares but the International Affairs and beyond that I can't I can't go with an election coming up but we could be quite clear on the first part of my question that even if there was a government in the United Kingdom which embraces unilateral disarmament and seeks the removal of US nuclear bases from Great Britain you would still maintain your special relationship with such a government I would try with all of my might to persuade that government not to make those grievous errors and yet as I say we have had a friendly relationship that has survived Labor Government's in the past as well as Conservative government's there the Iranian ambassador to the United Nations declared two days ago on the American TV that should his government decide to attack oil tankers in the Gulf it would do it whatever these ships are protected by the American flag mr. president don't you consider this statement as a sort of anticipated declaration of war from Iran to the United States I doubt that Iran would ever declare war on the United States knowing what the inevitable consequence would be and I can only respond to that statement that was made on quite sure for domestic consumption there are a number of flash points throughout the world in which the Western world all of us our countries here have to take positions in the interest of world peace the Persian Gulf is one and I have said from the very beginning that wherever we have to put forces in those places to help maintain peace anytime they are attacked they will retaliate they will fire back in self-defense and we're going to continue on that in that regard why don't you call on French and British governments to have in the Gulf a sort of Western task force just to assure their the freedom of navigation of the oil tankers well I know that there are warships of the other nations our allies that are in the Arabian Sea in the Indian Ocean and nearby and I understand that that's been part of the conversation that Secretary of Defense Weinberger has been having with our NATO allies in Europe right now about possible cooperation and relationship between the the military elements that we have stationed abroad well mr. president about one month ago you said that you'd examine the new data on US Japanese semiconductors tray what are your findings on Japanese compliance and if the sanction before summit meeting but while there seems to be some progress being made we still have not reached what I think must be the answer and that is a return to abiding by the agreement that both our countries had made in this regard I hope that it'll be very soon that we will restore that agreement and when they do we shall immediately lift the sanctions that we have that we've put on this what is your global strategy to stabilize the tunnel is there any specific action to propose in a summit meeting to to encourage this table at all you mean about trade international trade well we I know there's been a kind of volatile situation it's always referred to as the dollar being overvalued and then suddenly the dollar losing value we've had a feeling that the currencies of some other countries have been undervalued and that everyone will be better off if those currencies have come up so that maybe it isn't all just our dollar that they have come up with we think and believe that that the dollar is at the place that it should remain we don't look for any further serious drops in the in the value of the dollar and we also look at the summit in taking up the things that have been discussed at nice in the Latin American meetings that we all were for our representatives gathered two things that we started in Japan next year about review of the GATT treaty our agreement and that we can have a an opening of markets worldwide and easier flow of trade that will benefit all of us after all the discussions with Soviets and at the Allies how close are we to an INF agreement and another summit with Gorbachev this year and would you favor after eliminating all the INF missiles in Europe a so-called fire break that means no reductions of short-range nuclear weapons below the range of 300 miles well we've been again in close consultation with the allies on this there seems to be some pretty general agreement of on the basic terms of what we're negotiating it does begin with the long-range intermediate weapons we're hopeful of getting rid of those in the world also there is no thought on our side of totally denuclearizing Europe at the same time that this would leave the Soviet Union with a great superiority in conventional weapons I would like to think that ultimately all nuclear weapons in the world could be done away with their inhumane they violate all the previous rules of warfare in that their principal targets would be the non-combatants the civilians and I don't think that the threat of total destruction mutual destruction is exactly a sensible defence program that's why we're going forward with the SDI we believe we're on the track of something that could maybe render such weapons obsolete but before any of that can come about then there must be a bringing together of the ratio of forces between the Soviet Union and ourselves now it's the first part of your question I am hopeful that this fall we will have the summit meeting it is up to secretary general secretary gorbachev now to set the date we have the invitation is there they have agreed to come now is simply a case of when will that take place and I'm always a little superstitious about being optimistic in advance about things like the agreement on the reduction of arms but I do believe that great progress has been made more than in all the years since World War two and that we have the best opportunity for beginning the reduction of nuclear weapons that we've ever had in connection with the arms discussions three recent polls in my country show that for a majority of Germans Gorbachev is more popular incredible than you and then you are does it worry you that in the heart of Europe people have more faith in the Soviet leader then in the American president yes and I hope they wake up soon I mean no personal red oak or derogation of of mr. Gorbachev but I do believe that on the record of abiding by treaties on the record of striving for peace that the United States record is one that the people should have confidence in more confidence than the Soviet Union which has a wrong record of violating treaties and of using subversion in order to spread its influence throughout the rest of the world now I'm hopeful that mr. Gorbachev and the things he's proposed within his own country is taking a different tack and really means to set a different course than has been set before but I believe there's reason for us to well as I said to him in our last meeting I used a Russian term a proverb Dovie I know prova yaaaa it means a trust but verify President Reagan the revolutionary government of Iran has caused a lot of pain for your administration over the last few years and I just wonder if you're going into the Gulf looking positively seeking a chance to punch them in the nose saying as you once did to terrorists go ahead and make my day no I have to say we're not just in their daring someone to do something I think all of the nations that you represent have made it plain how important the Persian Gulf is that's an international waterway and I have said it for several years and I've had agreement with the leaders of your countries but there's no way that we can sit back and let the Persian Gulf be closed to international trade now it's far more important to Western Europe and Japan because of the percentage of oil that comes out of there for their total needs we also get some from there but it is a much smaller percentage from that particular area but what we have said is those are international waters and can you imagine the precedent that would be set if we all step back and said well this barbaric country has a right to close down these international waters and bring down the economic havoc that it would on so many countries No we're seeking nothing except the right of commercial trade between the nations of the Gulf those that are not embroiled in the iran-iraq war and we're going to do that can I ask you about another emerging strategic ocean and that is the Arctic Ocean where Soviet subs as you know are very busy these days is the United States ready to recognize the Canadian claim to sovereignty up there in its own interest that is so the Canadians can perhaps use subs to intercept and keep track of the Soviets we honestly want to find an answer to the now on one side that sort of holds back completely accepting the Canadian position is the international precedent that again would be set if something that by definition is international water could be closed by the nearby countries there are other choke points on the trade routes in the world where that could easily be invoked if the pattern was set on the other hand from the canadian viewpoint i have to say that that is unique that area when you look at the canadian islands and the extent to which they dominate those waters and know that a great many of those islands year-round are connected by a solid ice cover upon which there are many people that do live above those waters on that on that ice that this is a little different than the other situations in the world and we sincerely and honestly are trying to find a way that can recognize canada's claim and yet at the same time cannot set that dangerous precedent that i mentioned mr. president answering the question of my french colleague jacques ablution you said that in the case the iranians will attack your ships you will respond my question is sir how far will you go in your response i mean are you ready even to hit the Iranian territory if something really huge happens I mean are you ready to go what it needs I don't think that's a question that I should even attempt to ask first of all our actions will be defensive we will defend ourselves now it is true that the Iranians have placed missiles on shore that can reach targets at sea that has to be considered with regard to more than just shooting at another vessel or shooting in an airplane but the reason why I don't think I should go far is I think it's far better if the Iranians go to bed every night wondering what we might do than us telling them in advance so you've said repeatedly that you're anxious that the truth should come out in the iran-contra affair yes but isn't it the truth now that it is coming out that is actually causing so much damage I wonder if you feel that your your credibility has been damaged perhaps as it's seen in some parts of the world almost beyond repair now I know the damage that's been done to my credibility but it has not been by anything that has been proven quite the contrary it has been the image that has been created by our own particularly Washington press corps in describing what took place now there are two things linking Iran and the countries that linkage is the thing that the press would have had no word of it had I not gone to them and told them what we had discovered we had agreed to meet with sin Iranian individuals who wanted to discuss possible better relations with their country in the event of a new government there that eventually of course there will be a different government and they were the ones that brought up the idea that to help them because they were risking their lives literally to make such a proposal to us that they and to also establish our serious purpose that we violate our decision to not do business for the country that supports terrorism and Iran is one and they asked for a kind of a token shipment of weapons to be sold to them we agreed to this but we said we have we put a condition we said we have this agreement about not supporting terrorist nations and there is a group of terrorists called the Hezbollah that at least has some kind of a falafels esophagus arrangement with iran we said to these same people if you will use your influence to try and free our hostages in return for us doing this thing with the weapons now it wasn't until the leak through that beirut paper that brought all of the press of the world into the knowledge of this covert operation we had we had to be covert to try and save the lives of the people we were dealing with we did get a couple of hostages back more were scheduled to come out when the news broke and that ended everything well this is when we discovered that I had not been kept completely informed in what our own representatives had been doing that the whole arrangement had really kind of degenerated into hostage dealing rather than the thing that they had proposed first about how could we form a better national relationship and in our digging into this we discovered that there evidently was more money paid for our weapons than we had asked and then we received and that that money had gone somehow into some Swiss bank accounts and then one of those accounts was apparently one used for furnishing money to the Contras in Nicaragua immediately the day we learned this the very next morning I went before our leadership in Congress and subsequently before the press and told them what we had discovered now I'm still waiting to find out who charged Iran that extra money we got our twelve million dollars for the the arms how was that extra money put there who got it where did it go that still has not been made clear and I know no more than what I just told you and we were the first to bring this to the attention of the press now with regard to contra Aid and our ongoing struggle with our Congress which has appropriated money for aid to the freedom fighters in nicaragua against that totalitarian communist government then the Congress changes its mind and cuts off aid to them i from the very first have said the only hope we have for preventing the establishment of another Soviet base on the mainland of America is by way of the freedom fighters and then negotiating to have a democratic government there I made it plain went to the public trying to arouse public opinion in this country in support of our positions so that they would influence their representatives in Congress to continue providing the aid I did that openly I knew that there were individuals and groups in America which on their own privately were contributing I didn't know who they were and I never asked and I never asked how they did it and at the same time I had expressed a belief that other democratic nations in the world it might be to their best interest also to lend support to the freedom fighters and other countries did but again I never solicited any country and asked her to do that and I never knew who was or who wasn't until one the head of state of one of those countries told me that they were contributing and we're going to increase their contribution now that is the truth but that's not the way the image is portrayed I am being portrayed as having behind the scenes violated the law and done all sorts of shady things to try and violate the Congress restriction on aid to the freedom fighters and it just isn't true now I hope this will be carried word-for-word in each of your countries and maybe my reputation will be restored you have repeatedly condemned protectionism but the Europeans are not so convinced not to mention agriculture I like to give you just an example of European plane Airbus our feeling is the American side plans nothing more nothing less than to kill the project know what we think is going to happen we've already had discussions and this too started in our meeting in Japan our last summit meeting the recognition that today the world is producing more agricultural products than there is a market for and this is brought about by almost all of us subsidizing our farmers and in literally subsidizing them to produce more and not to recognize this this great surplus that's being created there was an agreement made in Japan that we were going to all of us look into this problem and see if we couldn't find a solution and I think this will be taken up at this coming summit because there seems to be a growing agreement that we must find a way in which the marketplace sets the the goal and the productivity of farming worldwide instead of us each of us paying to create overproduction and I think that I think that we're on the way to maybe finding an agreement that will be better not only for everybody but better for the farmers themselves mr. president I have been told that our time is over I want to thank you very much again and I see you I see you next time in Italy let me have one question on Berlin you will be and West and what are you going to achieve there well I think I'm going to express the belief that all of us have that there should be a reunited Germany and that that wall should come down thank you again sorry yeah all right thank you | Reagan Library | UCMP5_7v48WfDKfoirLCcNgQ | 2018-10-24 | Creative Commons

b20XZzP2aRk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b20XZzP2aRk | Pokemon Showdown : Smashed By Seismitoad - Sweeping With Scald (PokeMonday Random Battle) | what is this hello friends my name is Brandon Dayton I'm young bull narrator and welcome to another pokemon days we've got a ground on with leftover Stealth Rock pretty bulky there's a [ __ ] vaporeon that we face the last video Jesus Christ I hate it yveltal uh looking pretty tonti and bulky to and mastering might come in handy maybe perhaps probably not Rock polish Reggie I sweet seismitoad also has tell throb toxic pretty bulky team we've got here so I'm going to go ahead and fire off a fire punch because know the he was a nice tight but he ran away because he saw what was coming at least we burned the soul rock that came in I think now is a good time to set up the stealth rocks because why not and he goes for the willow wisp which is going to [ __ ] my groudon in a bad way so i guess i'm just gonna roar and hopefully figure out what some more of his team is there's a hitmontop there which is a spinner unfortunately we'll see what he does I suppose go for the earthquake that does nothing with the reflecting the burn and he wrap it spins away my rocks I am gonna set them up and then attempt to get into rapid spin again um hopefully he might KO me oh yeah with the crib [ __ ] a so now his defense is dropped I'm gonna die with the burn and get a free switch in which is going to be super sweet I need to pull him out of there so probably you belt us the battle the better choice because he does have hurricane which hits the special side so I'm gonna get them in there see what gonna happen and yeah we really only have one attacking moves so seventy percent accuracy let's hope it happens [ __ ] yeah those rocks are staying up for sure that is very nice good job darkbird thing from x and y which i haven't really played too much of because I'm poor and D s Noah 40 but that's all right we got pokemon online pokemon showdown he's seems really pissed he's thinking hard about what to do next every time he brings that bear Arctic and that's going to take twenty-five percent from those stealth rocks so he can't switch it in too much and meanwhile i'm able to switch my my characters around freely because i have no rocks on my side of the field bahaha thats all rock might have it let's start the timer oh there it goes haha alright they are tix out here again I'm kind of scared they pori on the problem vs smart switch but [ __ ] it I'm not aunt it because I think it's gonna sort stance or set up a sub or do something predicting the switch and it doesn't at all Stone Edge right my [ __ ] face ah that's pretty bad we do have the ruse though which will negate the super effectiveness as long as it doesn't crit yeah it's still doing a heavy amount of damage I think I'm gonna pull this guy out of here and we could get a pretty good switch in the seismitoad since Brown does resist the rock type attack and it's not even same type attack bonus so yeah not too bad I think it is choice banded it's hitting pretty heavy for a resistant attack I'll go for the skull they supposed to try and burn this dude but he brings in the car naveen which is a big threat to my seismitoad hopefully burn yes burn oh so that thing's significantly crippled by the burn I'm gonna bring the Avelle to back in here and see if we can't oh he goes for the sleep powder well I'm gonna let him go for the sleep powder again and go for a roost because I don't think you can really knock me down from full HP though the way that uh bear Arctic was able to so that burn is ticking away on him pretty nice go for the hurricane when we wake up and oh he gets the sword stance going which is [ __ ] terrifying actually because I don't have anything that resists normal type of tax which is basically all kind of ihab's besides grass type attacks and there was a dark-type knock knock off but his move pools pretty limited if you have like a steel pipe or something strong wake up hurricane in your face that I was able to survive that knocked off relatively easily me even with the sword dance because he was burned so we'll go for the hurricane here we [ __ ] it up horribly icicle crashed in my face goodbye a bell till he [ __ ] did some damage though for sure so seismic heads back out here I think skull seems like a relatively good choice at the moment and he switches out to his own seismitoad what is this oh I should play a ditto team I want to play a full team of dedos ah let's go for the skull again why not he sets up his rocks way way late in the game for rocks but it is going to destroy my masquerade on every switch in so I'll go for earthquake bear because it is a little stronger than stalled and it's able to KO him probably a surprise KO to him i do hope so i'm going to toxic this thing I won't waste time going for the burn because it does hit like a truck and I just want to get it out as quick as possible and then yeah i guess i'll go for skull and kind of sacrifice my seismitoad but that's going to be just fine if he keeps going for high jump kick actually I could switch into masquerade and take away a couple more turn to toxic so we'll try that now and it's going to get raped by stealth rocks but it could probably survive a high jump kick since it's four times resistant no heat ghosts for acrobatics and destroys me so that's fine we'll lose to folks instead of just the one to his hawlucha but we are still going to be in the lead will be tied I mean technically my folks are fresh this is a blind switch for him and I know everything he has so I'm going to switch into I don't know i can now I kind of want to poke my poori on in but I kind of hate my boy him because it was an [ __ ] in the last match so Cynthia vaporeon Reggie ice has got this [ __ ] good of the row dude so rock is probably not gonna be able to do too much so I'm in a rock polish up yeah he goes for a willow wisp which wouldn't even matter too much and now I've got double speed so I'm gonna smash this thing with an ice beam Focus Blast the next thing comes in and that'll be the end this has been pokemon days I've been bred to dayton your humble narrator if you did enjoy i hope you will like comment and/or subscribe and until the next time friends bubble one

xlectGfuPmQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlectGfuPmQ | DEF CON 26 CANNABIS VILLAGE - Annie Rouse - The Real History of Marijuana Prohibition | okay so thanks for joining me today guys I appreciate you all coming out so um I past ten years I have been very consumed in the cannabis space mostly on the hip side but also within the marijuana industry in terms of research and about 10 years ago I was really introduced more to the plant after writing the college paper about the economic impacts of hemp in Kentucky which is my home state and it used to be him actually used to be one of Kentucky's major cash crops and suddenly in the 1930s it disappeared and this was because there were a few paradigm shifts that occurred in this 1930s period that really changed the course of our human development for the rest of the world today so as I started to research I read about a man named Harry Anslinger how many didn't you in here heard of him a pretty good deal so hearing in slinger was one of the most important people that was part of this evolution and change he was chief of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics from 1930 to 1960 - he was comparable to J Edgar Hoover but no one really knew about him so he was considered by the world's foremost detectives but one of the least publicized he was a strong negotiator and strung into diplomat he spoke was fluent in five languages maybe even six and he was the man that was considered responsible for creating the framework for our entire narcotic enforcement strategies that we still enforced today so huge individual to know the history of but he's moose considered to be the man responsible for making cannabis illegal so after reading about Harry Anslinger about 10 years ago I got a little obsessed with him and I started to dig through all of these government archives I traveled all of her across the country to different libraries and just started to learn more and more about the individual and the goal was to uncover why him a beneficial and lucrative crop prior to when he came into office I would suddenly became the most dangerous man in the world and so I had read a lot about the conspiracies like in the inferno his club no clothes as well as just their Google searches but I really wanted to find out the truth and so so after about 10 years of research I am I finally come to the conclusion and I'm publishing an and a podcast series called Anslinger the untold cannabis conspiracy you can find it in your wherever you listen to podcasts but what I'm not going to divulge to you all today really just scratches the surface of season 1 I the only season I've published so far I'm intending to publish season 2 later this year they'll probably be four seasons total but I hope that this today intrigues you to tune in and question the past so that we can change the future so when I say 1930 what do you guys think of besides what I just said Great Depression right exactly so very distracting time for human civilization but also extremely mine time for human development during this time really just prior to 1930 and the decade throughout 30s there were three paradigm shifts that occurred in American history one of which was a shift in science so there were massive improvements in understanding organic chemistry and alkaloid chemistry which really sparked our synthetic revolution which we are still within today in addition there's a shift in prohibition from alcohol prohibition to suddenly turning to narcotics as a form of prohibition and then last there was major shifts in our prison systems which transition from solely meant confining men in jails to rather administrating and organizing federal prisons to create or pure a social disease through specialized treatment like through trying to make them useful citizens of society again so while most people were very distracted feeding clothing and sheltering themselves and their families there was during the most worst economic downturn in modern history ifs poor times worse than the Great Recession in 2008 to put into perspective there was a group of men that was behind the scenes that was working hard to actually change the fate of our American culture and this group of men was known as the committee on drug addiction has anybody ever heard of this yeah a couple of you it's not very well known but it was a program that was originally called the Bureau of Social Hygiene and it was funded by the Rockefeller Foundation to study sex drugs crime and delinquency all pretty lucrative markets today but by the end of the 1920s this group of men and the social Bureau Social Hygiene decided that it was in the best interest of the committee and the United States to have it shifted underneath the National Research Council and to really start focusing on drug addiction so this group of men who were a group of 10 or 11 solid MD PhD researchers and Harry Anslinger established a new way to view our modern world so the main attention was actually on finding the Holy Grail to morphine so that was the big problem with addiction at that time and they really this holy grail was supposed to be a substitute for morphine that was a non-addictive pain relieving alternative and it can be used in the new modern medicine which the committee team is really disturbing as Western medicine based on scientific data journals published articles and pharmaceuticals but by finding this holy grail it became rather tricky and it's actually something we're still trying to find today with drugs that we thought might work with oxycontin and horrible things that we now know as highly addictive and so what this group of men beyond finding this Holy Grail they were really focused on alkaloid chemistry and trying to understand how naturally occurring chemicals that we encounter and our day to day lives could be used to create pharmaceuticals and maybe these can be used to create a non-addictive pharmaceutical in addition they were investing a lot in in bolstering understanding of organic chemistry which also was very important for understanding our chemical reactions that were needed to create radiant's for things as big that we use every day today like pharmaceuticals or drugs fuel and plastics so these breakthroughs were not only the breakthroughs that were performed by this committee we're not only necessarily Studies on drug addiction but really addiction across the board so you can imagine that this committee was was really surprised one day when they came across the study that a German scientist introduced by the name of wolf fur strong and what he had found is that they had selectively bred Indian hemp which was the source of hashish into such apparently high quality that it could be used to replace the foreign drug for medicinal purposes the foreign drug being morphine so well it doesn't well yeah so being morphine and they actually selectively bred this plan by extracting the floral by breeding specifically for THC and selectively crossing that with other strands and then extracting the floral material crushing it into tablets and then they tested it on a human subjects so this and they watch their actions course so this document is actually called the very mushy Sh and its really enlightening and humorous archive because which I'll get to in a minute but at the time scientists had no idea what THC was or what CD was really the only thing that they knew was CDN which is kanavan all and so when they extracted these plants and put them into these these tablet forms they actually couldn't give the they didn't know the exact concentration that they were giving the individual so I became quite an experiment that's what I kind of deduced from the reading was that they they gave the individuals anywhere between 50 to 100 milligrams of THC in a tablet form so they were ingesting it orally for the first time the individual had ever tried cannabis so for those of you all who are less familiar out in Colorado a single gummy bear is 10 milligrams of THC and by law they cannot go above that so you can imagine that for an unknown that'll mess you up if you if you even if you try images so you can imagine how I messed up some of these people were who had never tried it and we're getting anywhere between 50 to 100 milligrams orally adjusted because it also creeps up on you slowly so they were pretty intense and we're practically hallucinating so what what they do is they write about their experience and the one guy says that under the into the drug his desire for companionship was so strong he felt his senses becoming sharper he thought he heard footsteps from great distances food smelled unusually good and his thoughts began to change rapidly he also said that he was at first he was very tired and then couldn't stop laughing his boss dropped everything hateful and evil and he spoke of the great differences between the actions of hashish marijuana cannabis hemp I heard great attempt that we know today but and alcohol and at several hours later he became very hungry asked for food and coffee after the meal he took a nap and about 6:30 he got up somewhat tired I was able to work that night he slept well the next morning did not have the slightest after effect pretty amazing huh so you you can imagine what this committee or drug addiction was thinking when they received this report you would think that they would be thinking oh my god this is it this is the solution this is the Holy Grail but yet that's not quite what happened in history is it you guys can come in and sit down if you want but this is because simultaneously during this time this committee on drug addiction was up to something and this group of men was really using alkaloid chemistry and organic chemistry and using that to in the effort to synthesize drugs so that they could patent them for further use protect their intellectual property and develop markets like big pharma has been known today so in order to do this you have to undergo a force in order to synthesize a drug you have to undergo a four-step process with a plant starting with a plant material so initially step one is extraction so this for instance taking cannabis you grab the full floral material and using ethanol distillation or co2 extraction you basically press the cannabinoids out into out of the fluoro material and during this time usually scientists are trying to figure out what method is best whether is you know ethanol or co2 and they measure this through consistency quality and efficiency and we have to remember that during this time this was already being being on being done with canvas but and put it into tinctures like we know today but really we didn't know the concentration so our knowledge base was very minimal at this time but step 2 in the process is isolation so this is actually a much more difficult process than simply extracting it because you have to remove a similar a single chemical compound from that extracts so in the case during this time they didn't know they couldn't isolate THC or CBD the only thing that could actually isolate see me in and in the cannabis plant we know now that there's a hundred plus other minor cannabinoids so you can imagine how difficult it was back then with the equipment that they have to actually extract these two major cannabinoids THC and CBD step three in the process is elucidation which back in the day was almost impossible to do but is basically how you you take that isolated compound and it's a highly complex step where you have to clarify the structure of that compound so then you can replicate it but that then right now there's equipment that can do this in seconds back then it was more of a guessing game so it's very difficult and then once you have elucidated the structure you can then synthesize it so you can take that chemical compound structure and replicate it using non natural compounds and that is how you get something like eronel or heroin or other drugs that are pharmaceutical drugs on the shelves today so at this point once you've synthesized something it's no longer that natural form it's a totally different exactly similar compound but not from the plant so during this time we have no idea so it we didn't know what THC or CBD was the and we didn't actually figure any of this out until 1965 and in comparison heroin had art morphine had already been synthesized into heroin prior to the turn of the 20th century so our knowledge base on opium as a plant used for medicine was much more in depth than campus so if you go back again to this committee on drug addiction whose goal ultimately was to understand synthesize and patent compounds for pharmaceutical use and pretty much dispose of the plant material altogether through regulation you can understand why we haven't they were unable to really move forward on Walter Straub's intellectual property that he discovered in that lab that day and why they didn't even bother to pursue the plant they couldn't see the size it so they couldn't patent it so instead they knew that they needed to control instead Worman or the other so why not prohibit it so this is where the shifted prohibition comes into play so obviously alcohol prohibition is failing and there's a rising rising concern of addiction rates across the world more than ever and especially as science was developing along the way because we were creating more and more synthetic pharmaceuticals that they were finding were just as highly addictive or more addictive than their natural form but and prior to this formation of the Bureau of Narcotics Harry Anslinger was actually second command of prohibition how many of you all have heard the conspiracy that Harry Anslinger came into power and created this Bureau of Narcotics and reefer madness as a way to keep his position in office and his officers many of you are so not entirely true either and this is for a couple reasons one of which priority and center coming into office it actually already been a lot of states that were taking action to make cannabis illegal and you can see the the states in red actually were the ones that were had formed regulations against cannabis which is kind of funny because if you look at it now on new Tennessee legalized it's really kind of you know going in Reverse and in fact California was the first to make cannabis illegal it was also the first to make cannabis legal once again so in addition the League of Nations was also already making moves to try and regulate cannabis as under their narcotic framework and they they tried to do it 1925 but unsuccessfully and they were able to successfully do this in 1931 with the limitations agreement and this basically limited any sort of agricultural production of different narcotics unless it fell within the quota of the country so it was a way to control the supply side which is really what they said that they cared about the entire time but in addition Anslinger actually up until 1934 he didn't care about cannabis he didn't even want to touch it he thought it was going to be a distraction he wanted to focus on heroin because he thought that him her cannabis grew like dandelions hence the name weed now what caused his shift in 1934 I was trying to tune into the body cast before I go on anymore I you know we've been talking a lot about cannabis indica cannabis sativa cannabis hashish him all these different terms marijuana so we're just gonna kind of dive into this a little bit and how this terminology really shifted over the years so cannabis sativa is actually the more overarching species and was commonly thought to be derived from Eastern Europe or Asia a long time ago mostly grown fruit seed and fiber oil or seed oil and fiber meanwhile cannabis indica was really we think of it today is more like a help mellow high but really indica is where that species was derived from so indica literally translates to from India so this cannabis indica or Indian hemp back in the day was really coming from India and then there was also a cannabis Americana which was really both cannabis sativa and cannabis indica that had migrated sway over to into America and they were just calling it cannabis Americana because that's what mr. right from but this cannabis indica was usually hashish and so normally that was grown for the floral material and extracted to create your extracts that we commonly use today and these extracts were also commonly used in pharmaceuticals all throughout the world and in fact in 1934 the League of Nations came out with a report that said that the really the medical benefit of cannabis and they they refer to it as cannabis sativa because it is that overarching species so they find that it's a mild counter irritant it's also used for the relief of neural neurologic pain to encourage sleep and to soothe the restlessness it's used for corn remedies and commercial products varying strength and psychological activity and the variability in potency was probably why wasn't being used today so the funny thing is is that in the same document it actually talks about how pharmaceutical companies in the US would work with farmers who would go on and find ditch weed growing on the sides of river banks and tree lines and these farmers would harvest it and then ship it off to pharmaceutical companies so you can imagine oh yeah it's not quality control it's growing wildly and and there's nothing like we have today where it's either grown in a greenhouse or in a very controlled environment so you can imagine why there would be so much variability [Music] so when this Committee on drug addiction formed one of their first actions was actually to work with Congress to establish a Center for dealing with imprisoned at addicts at the time there was because of the increase in narcotic control there get a lot of arrests that were happening and suddenly the prisons were becoming overcome with with drug addicts people with drug addiction and they didn't know what to do with them they were clogging up the the pipeline and so they decided that under an act they would actually establish what was called the narcotic farm mini-video heard of the narcotic farm so the narcotic farm was a facility in Lexington Kentucky my hometown and it was a place where the video drug addiction could understand the underlying social disease of addiction and try and find potential treatments they could also test new drugs that they wanted to bring the market so it one third of it was a prison for drug addicts 1:30 vote was a rehabilitation center where they tried to make people useful citizens of society again by introducing programs like farming mechanics and art and then one third of it was the addiction Research Center where they would actually take prison inmates and bring them into the addiction research center and pump them up with drugs to use as guinea pigs and of course they were you know under confinement and close watched by these scientists so their main purpose was to study morphine and trying to develop these new drugs finding the holy grail to morphine really they already found cannabis but and of course during his time they also studied cannabis but only to some extent because they really had known already that it wasn't really an addictive drug it was more habitual so this is actually a pretty interesting piece that was in 1931 so Indian hemp which suddenly they're calling marijuana addicts were eligible for treatment in the new legislation passed by the 17th Congress that approved basically creating this narcotic farm and they were going to allow marijuana people that had used marijuana to seek treatment there and studied the harmful effects and yeah yeah yeah um but so over the next forty years this narcotic farm operate in Lexington under the control of a director that was part of a committee of drug addiction my name is Lawrence cold and throughout his time they made breakthrough research in the field of drug addiction as much so as finding figuring out what tolerances were what happens if I pump you up with morphine and stop cold turkey a lot of different major achievements were created here that's not really an achievement but also the 12-step program many other things were created with this narcotic form but also what was created was actually a mecca some of the greatest jazz music all time so well it became really what people refer to as a country club and a lot of these individuals would go check themselves in voluntarily to the facility just so that they could play music with some of the greatest people of all time in addition the prisoners really kind of enjoyed their time in this addiction Research Center they got free drugs they got to try everything around morphine - heroin - LSD marijuana all across the board and when they would get done with their 30 days 10 days horrible and they were in the center the end scientists would ask them one final question do you won money for your time that you can put in your commissary or would you like drugs to be put into your trip bank that you can use throughout your time naturally they always chose the drugs one final experiment before they let them free so even though the this narcotic farm didn't assess cannabis very much what they actually managed to do was create the first synthetically produced THC compound called para hexyl and it wasn't exactly the same as THC because they still couldn't figure out exactly what that chemical compound was they actually used it as a way to test THC and the effects of cannabis on inmates so instead of actually getting fluoro material and having people smoke it or eat it like like they did in Germany they gave this them the synthetic form to try and figure out the effects on human and this is actually a common practice today as well which will talk a little bit about there but what it also did in this time was not only as this affects on man but it actually gave dr. Lawrence : some ammo in making a monumental decision towards the end of this experimentation in the 1970s or just before and just prior to the Controlled Substances Act so what it did was dr. Kolb had actually discovered that the hazards of marijuana had been extremely over exaggerated and that it wasn't actually causing people to raid the murder and jump off bridges and shoot people but rather similar to the man and Germany hang out on a couch you need some food and laughs a lot and so with this dr. Cole actually started making some suggestions because the this controlled substances act was about to come into effect and he wanted to inform the committee on how they should regulate cannabis so what he actually said was that they needed to allocate funding to study the plant he also said that they needed to prevent strict regulations against the plants because it was mostly used by young adults similar to alcohol and that if people were imprisoned by felony for possessing this plant it would end up ruining their lives they didn't listen oh yeah he also said that under no circumstances should we be pouring this much money into federally imprisoning drug adept and drug addicts because an prohibition was actually better because prohibition are not permission sorry treatment was actually better through something like parole because it only cost the American public three hundred and fifty dollars a year per person as opposed to two thousand dollars to maintain them prison of course today those numbers are way greater but even though dr. Cole who is head of the National Committee on drug addiction the national not just the committee but the US Department of Health and Human Services Committee on drug addiction he remembers exact title but they didn't listen to him and instead created what we know today as an enormous problem they put cannabis as it were one narcotic equivalent as heroin it is which meant that no federal funding could be used to research the the crop that people who used it were going to be sent to federal prison and that we couldn't do any clinical trials to understand the problem more so but oddly enough during this between 1970 and today during this time frame another pharmaceutical synthetic form of THC was actually brought to the shelves which we know today's marital which is really good for appetite stimulation for cancer and AIDS patients Barun home is a schedule 3 narcotic exact same chemical compound as THC big farms paying someone else meanwhile last year there were 1.6 million in my last year two years ago there were 1.6 million drug arrests for violent violators narcotics across the board 84% of those were possession alone over 1/3 of those for marijuana law possession or marijuana law violations with 89% being for possession alone so dramatic shift on what dr. Kolb had stated to federal government as a means to control this serious problem instead certain people but really I think saw the dollar signs and started to move forward on what we know today as corporate prison systems and a horrible social problem so there's been a lot of steps to get to this point today obviously but the DEA continues to try and combat the issue even with something like industrial hemp which was legalized in all other industrialized nations really in the early 1990s in 2004 the u.s. hemp Industries Association actually had to sue the DEA because the DEA would not allow him foods on store shelves even though every other country in the world was growing it selling it and eating it and studies had come out saying it's a superfood as all your essential amino and you're perfect in maybe six to omega-3 ratio and high in protein but yet it's a drug everyone fortunately in 2014 the farm bill passed which actually opened up production for him at pilot scales and for research services George is a federal law and so formers and processors in states with proper legislation started to grow to sprout the DEA continued to step in by preventing seeds from being imported into the US so that the farmers could actually grow it in addition they tried to mess with interstate commerce and so year over year over year the federal spending bill had to put clauses in to protect the pilot program as well as many of the marijuana states from interfering with Interstate Commerce of course marijuana can't have interstate commerce but there was banking and other things like that that were interfere with so even with this federal legislation the DEA continues to hammer down the door trying to prevent any action against any form of cannabis whether intoxicating or not meanwhile the US Department a mister health and Health and Human Services has a patent on cannabinoids as an antioxidant and a neuro protective cannabinoids like THC and CBD that are found within canvas and more recently the World Health Organization put out a report stating that that CBD was non-intoxicating was safe and people had generally well tolerances and consuming the compound in addition they found that it had medical benefit for epilepsy and therapeutic benefit for 18 different problems from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to pain to anxiety to inflammation even drug addiction so it's pretty unbelievable when you start to look at what has happened in the past and the direction that we have come about but you can also start to realize how and why cannabis is still regulated with in this case drug category we couldn't synthesize it and therefore patent it until 1965 really they discovered the endocannabinoid system in the way that it interacts with the human brain in the early 1990s then suddenly the US government comes out with a patent on on these compounds and now future in the next couple months really probably the next month there will be another pharmaceutical pharmaceutical drug called epidemics that will be approved for consumption it will likely be scheduled as a three similar to Marinol or maybe even not even on the Controlled Substances Act because it's CBD and it's not intoxicating however CVE derived from either hem or marijuana or THC derived from usually marijuana it's still a Schedule one I'm going to leave it at that so that you guys can think about it a little bit more but it's up to you to decide and I'm going to leave you all with some different areas if you want to take action or learn more I definitely would recommend you all getting involved think MP thoughts is my personal blog there's a lot of information mostly about him but it is also a hub of my podcast Anslinger the untold cannabis conspiracy you can if you want to get involved with actions for supporting the hemp industry visit him support org and try and contact your local representatives to get them behind the 2018 farm bill which is going to be passed which will officially remove him from the Controlled Substances Act it is set to be hopefully approved by the end of September if not then by the end of the year because the farm bill is it must pass you can also check out normal org for any sort of Marijuana action and drug policy towards the drug policy Alliance they're a fantastic organization working very hard to help re-establish cannabis and other drugs that were wrongly accused as demonizing natural plants in addition if you are looking for CBD you can visit a nabi market calm it's my market place we sell premium verified temperature I've CB so it's all legal under the 2014 farm bill no matter what the DEA says and of course if you enjoyed this subject and want to learn more I definitely suggest to tune in to the podcast series Anslinger the untold cannabis conspiracy it's available on Google stitcher Google Play stitcher and iTunes you can also find me on social media and email if you have any thoughts questions concerns or general wonderment yeah so thank you all for listening for questions two types of questions yep and so anyone have questions like why did they create parable so it's interesting because actually I'm going to go back to that thank you because a lot of what happens today is that they have a hard time studying plant derivatives like opium and cannabis because the quality and consistency is difficult to measure time over time and have that give it to a test subject and have them have the same experience so this person have the same experience is that person is that person because there's so many things that could play into that into that however if you can create a synthetic compound it has that inherent consistency that what we believe is is good because it's been manufactured in a lab as opposed to grown in a field and that's still something that is in play today actually a lot of times when they're trying to do these medical trials on or any sort of research on cannabis for instance there was a researcher who was trying to determine the what the prenatal Howell THC affected prenatal development and this individual actually had a very difficult time first getting the funding to study cannabis period because in order to get funding for Schedule one narcotic you actually have to try and prove something negative so you have to - so like oh we think that prenatal development smoking pot during pregnancy is going to cause problems down the road yeah okay we'll give you that funding if you're like oh no you think it's gonna do good things right yeah um but during this process her first he had a really hard time getting the grant and when he finally got the grant he actually was trying to just get the flower because that's what people use you know they're not smoking para hexyl but when he there was so much paperwork involved and roadblocks that he actually had to switch to a synthetic form of THC because it was too difficult to actually acquire that and so not only is it like in a laboratory setting there is that consistency in quality control that they won to actually you know schedule that research but also there's so many roadblocks to even acquire that plant material that it's almost not worth it for the researcher to continue so does that answer your question I didn't know any other questions alright cool well I've got some business cards up here if you owe money as well stickers thanks for coming out guys [Applause] | DEFCONConference | UC6Om9kAkl32dWlDSNlDS9Iw | 2018-12-02 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)

Lpdu3Ky6jNE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lpdu3Ky6jNE | 'PATHWAY TO REFORM' - Keynote Opening Address by Ethan Nadelmann | I'd like to introduce our opening Keynote and for me this is an absolute huge honor because when I heard his opening address last year in Denver I was deeply moved at the end of the speech we was calling for freedom and Justice it was incredibly emotional incredibly compelling incredibly sincere so much so I actually shared it here that kind of Rhymes too doesn't it that was a bonus but they weren't tears of pain they weren't tears of anguish they were tears of joy there were tears of joy because I knew that with people like this working so passionately for a better world for a fairer world for a world where good science means good policy I knew there was people like this on the pathway to reform with us I knew we'd get there I knew that it wasn't just possible I knew that reform based on compassion and science was inevitable so ladies and Gentlemen please welcome the founder and executive director of the drug policy Alliance all the way from New York City Dr Ethan nadelman thank you very much square and I'll count on somebody to give me a five minute warning over there um sort of appropriate background sound for a drug conference I guess um what I've been asked to do is to put the New Zealand development with your psychoactive drugs regulation into a global context and that's what I'm going to try to do here I'm not the expert on your law some of you are the expert I want to learn as much as I can so I can tell more and more people about it because I think it is a very an important and historical breakthrough um but but let me just start off by saying I've been involved in this for a long time I started off researching and working actually as a consultant US government and interviewing drug enforcement agents around the world and writing books about the internationalization of of law enforcement and Drug Enforcement I then was a professor and I've really been involved and really committed my life to trying to end this war on drugs and the reason I've done that is because I think that the War on Drugs is a horrific Nightmare on the face of the earth is it the greatest threat facing us with environmental threats and laws I don't know right but I can tell you that a policy that that criminalizes hundreds of millions of people around the world that arrest tens of millions that incarcerates millions that deprive people of basic civil liberties and human rights that generates vast black markets that empowers organized criminals that creates more corruption almost any other activity known in modern society that makes drugs more dangerous that spreads HIV and encourages the deaths by people of opiate overdose that deprives people of access to drug treatment that lies to our children and creates a massive institutionalized hypocrisy in our society I don't like that stuff and I don't see why we have a need to continue on that line right I don't see that but I also know that changing that stuff is not necessarily about inspiring people to share my or some of ours passion around ending the drug war I know in fact that the way that we ultimately prevail is by persuading people that what we're advocating for makes more sense than what we've been doing and that what we're advocating for is actually going to create a safer world for young people for future generations and really for the vast majority of society there's no policy that works best for everybody but there are overwhelming arguments deeply grounded in the evidence that the essence of drug policy reform ultimately results in less harm to health and safety more protection of young people and others and it's those arguments as I say to my allies many times in the U.S and elsewhere we don't win until a majority of ordinary parents of teenagers have come to believe that what we're advocating for is going to better protect their kids and other kids than what the government has been advocating for that's the bottom line now here's let me just put it my basic underlying suppositions and and frame and and then try to offer a frame in which to think about drug policy and about the alternative to drug policy and then I'll lay out what are The Cutting Edge developments around the world and put this New Zealand thing into context so I start off with the assumption that by the way can we close that door over there for the uh the uh nothing no anyway I start off with the Assumption first of all that drugs are here to stay right that there is more or less never been a drug-free Society in human history that there are not going to be drug-free Societies in the future whether we like it or not that people have been uncovering discovering devising all sorts of substantive plants and chemicals for a long period of time and that process is simply going to accelerate we are moving into another generation where the pharmaceutical products that are used are ever more sophisticated where the drugs we give young boys with ADD and the people we give one another or the drugs we give for depression and mood altering and the ones we do to help you know older men get erections and all of these things are just going to become ever more sophisticated and integrated and brain science is going to develop and that's going to be the fact of the matter right I you may not like this I may not like it some of us may want to be pharmacological luddites but that's not really an option the option is how do we how do we learn how to live live with this reality of psychoactive drugs in our midst in such a way that these substances cause the least possible harm and in some cases the greatest possible good that's the broader challenge how do we as a society say we can't realistically build a moat between those drugs and our children between those drugs and our home right how do we accept that how do we look at the fact that if you go to those parts of the world where people are too poor to even buy a little smoke of a cigarette or a hit off a crack pipe or a joint what do they do they sniff gasoline and inhalants and solvents probably the most dangerous psychoactive substance is known to man is there a criminal justice response to the problem of gas sniffing gasoline and solvents and all the no there can't be these things are too universally available and if there's no solution to dealing with a single most dangerous substance available what makes us think that prohibitionist approaches should be the first and primary way we deal with a range of other psychoactive substances in our society so that taking the big deep Collective breath and letting that breath seep up into government's lungs so that we can actually adopt the wise policy rather than the hysterical one that my government has so aggressively promoted for almost a century that's the challenge now how do we think intellectually about drug policy Alternatives right the way I think about it is I imagine a spectrum right with a whole variety of policies from the the most punitive policies at this end the kind of you know chop off their heads pull out their fingernails rip them off the streets drug test them without cause put them into treatment programs that are actually prison camps you know Saudi Arabia Singapore you name it all the way to reducing the harshness and increasing the public health approach so you get to the very other end where actually you're at the free market approach where there's essentially no controls except maybe to limit access to kids I'm thinking about cigarette policy in my country and probably yours 50 years ago right the the free markets for some the libertarian dream of this right and I asked the question where in fact along this spectrum do we find the best drug policy well that begs the question what do you mean by the best drug policy I Define the best drug policy and I hope you agree as the one which accomplishes two things is the one that most effectively reduces the harms of drugs and the one that most effectively reduces the harms of drug prohibitionist policies and the optimal policy is the one that best accomplishes a mix of those objectives the one that seeks to reduce the death disease crime and suffering associated with drugs and also the one that seeks to reduce the death disease crime and suffering incarceration violation of Human Rights undermining a public health all these other things associated with prohibitionist policies that's the mix that's the mix if I'm asked to Define drug policy reform in one sentence I can do it it's a long sentence but I can do it and I would Define the objective of drug policy reform as reducing the role of criminalization and the criminal justice system in drug control to the maximum extent consistent with protecting Public Safety and Health I'll say it again reducing the role of criminalization the criminal justice system in drug control to the maximum extent consistent with protecting public self Public Safety Public Health that's it it means not the leap to the legalization scenario and in fact there is no leap there's no 18th Amendment you know America or alcohol prohibition was called the 18th Amendment there's no 18th amendment of Global Drug prohibition to repealed as we did in America by 21st Amendment inevitably the reforms will be incremental it's moving down that Spectrum cautiously proactively trying to think about how to try testing and trying but stopping short where we push the reforms and the reduction of criminalization and criminal justice so far that it actually presents greater heads greater threats to public health and safety that's the frame now here's the good news the good news is that all of the incremental steps the ones that take us away from that punitive policy of Saudi Arabia and Singapore and here's the United States there's Russia you know range of other countries and then we start to get to more reasonable ones like in Western Europe to some extent New Zealand and Australia et cetera et cetera right and then moving in this way and if you look over here we're talking about tougher and tougher tobacco policies and alcohol policies some of what we're trying to do is to sort of stretch kind of a de-prohibitionized the prohibitionist policies as much as possible without increasing risk and at the same time increase the regulatory role responsible regulation of legal drugs Alcohol Tobacco et cetera Etc to the maximum extent without generating its own sets of negative consequences and trying to stretch these two models together to as we come to something that seems like the right policy for various types of drugs right well what do we know if you look around the world what I focus on is who are the models who are the role models who's doing this right who's doing this right well first I look at the Europeans and especially with respect to harm reduction I mean what the Europeans really beginning to do the Dutch and then the Swiss and then Germans and the English and a range of others in various ways was basically to embrace the notion of harm reduction of accepting the drugs we're here to stay and seeking to reduce the negative consequences right it wasn't just Australia and the Netherlands but even Margaret Thatcher's England that in 1985 said this devastating virus of HIV is spreading and of course we don't want people doing drugs and of course we're going to try to make them stop but we have to stop the spread of this deadly disease for which we have no cure and if that means providing clean needles to active illegal drug injectors so be it that's what we will do and they did it even before the evidence was conclusive that you could do those policies reduce HIV and Hep C without increasing drug use but it saved large numbers of lives in my country where we did not embrace the evidence where we did not Embrace Common Sense roughly 200 000 people died who would not and did not need to have died if we had embraced the sensible pragmatic policies of other countries and the people who died were not just the injecting drug users but also their lovers and spouses and children and others to whom the disease was transmitted right we know that when the Swiss 20 odd years ago were plagued by the problems of uh of of drug dealers selling drugs on the streets and the bankers of Zurich and elsewhere were deeply offended by this unsightly mess and they said let's expand you know let's rest and let's arrest him and the cops arrested arrested didn't seem to work very well just more kept coming Switzerland richest currency in the world if you're a drug dealer you want to sell drugs somewhere you go to Switzerland biggest return because of the price of the currency they couldn't solve that problem right then they said let's make more Treatment available they did that methadone maintenance drug free treatment all sorts of things like that but there were still thousands of people wanting to do this stuff then they said well let's put them all in a park behind the train station you may remember something called needle Park worked great for the first six months or a year all the junkies went there all the uh the joy the lawn for everybody who's there but then it got out of control became like a zoo they had to shut it down they didn't give up at that point and say let's go back to the law enforcement Approach at that point they said let's try something new let's allow people older heroin addicts who are really burnt down in the life of the streets but can't imagine living without to come to a clinic and get heroin pharmaceutical heroin up to three times a day up to as much as they want either they pay a few dollars a day or or the government covers it with a good treatment context with other services the Swiss did this at an experimental basis it was remarkable crime dropped drug addiction dropped overdoses dropped a rest drop right turned out to be a net fiscal savings for the taxpayer people who signed up in the program some of them ultimately decided to stop using heroin for the first time in their life what free heroin and for the first time you gotta stop well I think that was the moment when for the first time they could look at that white powder and ask themselves the question is that what I'm spending my life doing chasing that white powder I'm gonna go back and make methadone work maybe I'm just going to get off this stuff totally that was remarkable a little like the finding of the first needle exchange program in Tacoma Washington which turned out to be the number one point recommending people to drug-free treatment huh a needle exchange program where people go to get clean needles so they can keep shooting illegal drugs becomes the number one point of reference into conventional drug treatment well because what we realize is that model that my government has promoted so heavily the drug court model the put this in people's face and if you use a drug we'll give you a couple of chances to get clean but if you don't we're gonna before us to lock you up for a few days the first time a week a month and if you can't ever stop and you will never stop we're just gonna lock you up for good and you know nobody gets behind the drug drug addiction without being forced to by the government that's an underlying almost ideological belief in my own country but the experience in those Tacoma needle exchange programs and the experience in the Swiss heroin maintenance showed in fact that people would choose to put a drug addiction behind them or being able to put an addiction behind them if they were treated as human beings it's the point at which harm reduction in the 12-steps movement overlap and intersect it's the recognition that if you want to avoid losing control of your drug use or if you want to regain control of your drug use after you've lost control or if you want to put your drug use behind you for good the single most essential thing is uncovering discovering refining your fundamental dignity dignity the core sense of dignity is the best single protection against losing control with drugs so the Swiss did that heroin attending the Dutch in the Germans and then the Danes and the Canadians in the English and that thing has worked and I sure hope that one of these I know you have almost no heroin here which I guess is very good but you know the Australians almost did it but it's an approach where now the top journals say this stuff works it works it works the evidence is conclusive in Europe it's the police Chiefs or the leading champions of heroin maintenance because it reduces drug markets it reduces acquisitive crime by drug addicts and it gives a nod to the public health people that was the Swiss innovation and breakthrough the Portuguese well the Portuguese you know I mean they who knew when they changed their law in 2001 fewer people knew about it than when New Zealand changed your law last year right Portugal people don't even know where it is in my country right but they said we're tired of chasing the same thing the junkies around town excuse my use of the phrase drunkies I'm using it as a provocative way I mean illegal people who inject drugs illegally and if I lapse into the colloquial it's meant only in the most endearing and affectionate ways only just clarify that but what they basically said is they made a commitment that we are not going to put people in jail for simple drug use or possession any drug right we pick up somebody they turn out they got some heroin cocaine methamphetamine marijuana whatever it is we are not putting them in jail we're going to send them to something called a dissuasion committee you love the term I don't know what it sounds like in Portuguese but a dissuasion committee so people can have their mental illness their addiction whatever it might be addressed right 10 years later two years ago the Portuguese evaluate this policy and what they find is is that the number of drug users in the country has not changed that much but you know what's happened hiv's gone down HIV risk behaviors down hep C risk behaviors down overdose fatalities are down arrests are down crime are down more resources or resources are being made available to help people of a drug problem rather than locking people up the drug the drug trafficking is still illegal but the market lost the Vitality it had before the view of the Portuguese is we are not going to put you in jail or take take away your freedom simply for using drugs we're not going to drug test you and threaten you if you don't stop doing we're going to offer you help and services and be Innovative with it and if you're really a bad guy we'll get you for something else that's the view in my country unfortunately it's been you know if you use illegal drugs you're probably a bad guy therefore let's catch you before you make the turn and lock you up first whether you actually do harm to anybody else or not that's a very very very expensive approach and ineffective it works for a small number and not for most others the Portuguese won British Journal criminology Stevenson news the piece a couple years ago shows the evidence that this stuff works well then we come to the issue of cannabis the Dutch led the way that coffee shop system where in the late 70s they effectively legalized the retail sale of cannabis while keeping the wholesale side illegal and what happened well at some point marijuana use went up in the Netherlands but you know what it also went up in other countries that did not decriminalize cannabis basically the trends in cannabis use among Dutch went up and down at roughly the same rates as other European countries that did not liberalize what else the rates of cannabis use in the Netherlands remain much lower than they did in your country or my country notwithstanding the fact that our policies were quite punitive and yours were more punitive than the Dutch what else it turned out that the percent of young people who use cannabis and then went on to try the so-called harder drugs was less than in other countries why because the Dutch had effectively separated the Cannabis Market from the other markets and what we know about the so-called Gateway Theory it's not that there's some magic of cannabis they use this you want to go try all the other drugs right what it was was people were going to drug dealers in the Netherlands drug dealers either it was at coffee shops here or the other dealers there it was not all merged together as it is in my country and perhaps yours as well right but then the Europeans sort of sat in their hands and I gotta tell you I've been traveling the world speaking about drug policy for a long time typically when I go abroad and especially when I go to parts of Latin America I start off by apologizing not so much apologizing for being an American but apologizing for the atrocious actions and behavior of my government around the world and for the global drug war that we promoted bilaterally and multilaterally in our enforcement efforts through Global conventions and all this sort of stuff you know something in at least one area I don't need to apologize anymore because even as my country has led the world in incarcerating our fellow citizens you know the United States we have less than five percent of the world's population but almost 25 percent of the world's incarcerated population right we rank first in the world in the per capita incarceration of our fellow citizens we lock up people at five six seven eight times the rates of other countries including I think New Zealand and European countries right we have the highest rate of incarceration of any Democratic Society in history and our incarceration of young men of color especially young black men makes apartheid South Africa look like a walk in the park in fact the rates of incarceration of young black men in America grossly exceed the rates of incarceration the Soviet gulags of the 30s 40s and 50s which was the greatest system of mass incarceration in recent history right so we do things terribly and our notion of promoting our policies the notion that any other government would want to look at us and say look at America they lead the world in incarcerating people they spend vastly more money locking people up than trying to help them we want to be just like them it's always struck me as peculiar but then again we're an influential government we've been the superpower for a long time and so we can sort of wave it around and force people to sign on and all that thank God that more and more other governments are resisting and fortunately in America the people and civil society and state governments when it comes to marijuana are saying there's another way to do this another way to do this it's a mark remarkable we have gone from roughly 36 percent of Americans in favor of legalizing marijuana taxing and regulating it just 10 years ago and 60 opposed to now having between 55 and 60 percent of Americans saying yes it's time to do it to legally tax and regulate this stuff take the money away from the criminals have the cops focus on real crime and the way that shift has happened because the majority of parents of adolescents have said that's the way to go let's stop pretending that somehow keeping marijuana illegal and arresting 750 000 people a year is the way to protect our young people when the young people are looking at the adults and saying you think mass incarceration and keeping marijuana legal is protecting us what exactly have you been smoking mom and dad because that's not what I would call rational thinking right so we've seen it happen you know first with medical marijuana 20 States legalizing marijuana for medicinal purposes a few million Americans now with a legal recommendation from their doctor or a medical marijuana ID card from the state or local government and by the way would you hear on the news about Californian people selling it to anybody and everybody who's got a hangnail that's California other parts of the country in New England and New Mexico and elsewhere are tight regulatory systems with medical review boards approved conditions doctors having to register all this sort of stuff so it's a responsible way to do it and to the extent New Zealand wants to look in that direction what I would say first is don't even look at America look at Israel Israel under the conservative government of of Benjamin Netanyahu actually with the most sophisticated and developed medical marijuana program in the world right that's the model I think that New Zealand should be looking at and I think it's sad sad actually that New Zealand will not acknowledge legitimate medical rights of people from marijuana truly is a medicinal benefit so we did that and I think doing that actually helped change the public discussion because people began to look at you know wait a second we're allowing marijuana to be sold above ground we're taxing it regulating it people go to dispensaries and the sky hasn't fallen and we're not seeing any major increases in marijuana use among adolescents or others well Colorado and Washington November 2012 a vote through the ballot initiative process to legalize marijuana tax and regulate it these were not squeaker votes they weren't quite like your parliamentary vote on the psychoactive drugs Bill last year but the vote to legalize marijuana in Colorado got more votes in November 2012 than Barack Obama did and he beat Romney badly in Colorado it got almost as many votes as him in Washington and more than the governor guys who won the gubernatorial and attorney general races right Colorado set it up they started to roll it out the only surprise in the 12 or 13 weeks since Colorado set up allowed people to buy and sell marijuana through licensed shops is that the state government says they got twice as much tax revenue in the first month as they expected something to consider right Washington State's going to roll out soon and then Uruguay in December becomes the first government to do this right who's going to be next well the Europeans been sitting on their hands and I think now they're going wait I thought we were leading the world on sensible drug policy Colorado Washington and Uruguay have just leapfrogged us and so now in the Netherlands and the Czech Republic and in Denmark and Switzerland Spain there were all sorts of conversations about looking for responsible ways to remove marijuana from the black market and to legally regulate it you know what we're fighting for in this effort in the United States it's so that a generation from now people will look back on the marijuana arrests and marijuana prohibition and marijuana rhetoric of the late 20th early 21st century the same way that today Americans look back on our experience with alcohol prohibition and go what the hell was that all about right will marijuana use increase if we make it legally available I think it will I think it will will it be increased among adolescents I don't think so why because adolescents already have such incredibly great access to marijuana today it's not going to change that much if we make it legal and tax and regulated for adults right and I mean there are three surveys in my country where young people say it's easier to buy marijuana than it is to buy alcohol I mean if ever there was an indictment of a failed prohibitionist policy that has got to be it so I think legalizing it for adults taxing and regulating is not going to lead to an increase in adolescent use the price may drop that may affect it a bit but I don't think we're going to see that chase who is going to use more marijuana once it's legal my bet it's going to be people in their 40s and 50s and 60s and 70s and 80s and 90s and it's going to be people saying you know I think I prefer that Puffer that nibble at the end of the evening instead of that sleeping pill I don't wake up with the same kind of funny hangover I think I prefer that to the drink I have each night uh you know what that little marijuana it actually helps with my arthritis and the doctor says it may be helping with my diabetes or my restless leg syndrome or whatever else that's bothering me right you know some people find that when you've been married 20 30 40 years it spices things up there too I mean that's where we're gonna see the increase in marijuana you said people aren't going to be smoking joints anymore they're going to be vaping you know e-cigarette type things and vaping which is not a major issue in terms of the safety of marijuana because most people smoke around I don't smoke that much doesn't have that big effect on lungs but it is going to be that shift will that be a net harm to Public Health or a net plus it could in fact potentially be a net plus or at best a minor negative but to end the hypocrisy and the lying and the arrest and all this other sort of stuff and the racial disproportionality and the way these laws are are enforced both in your country and mine all of those would be very promising things so I think that has to go and what I hope now as I turn to New Zealand is that part of what's Happening Here is that that debate gets reignited I came to New Zealand in late 2001 and I spent three days in Wellington and going non-stop meeting with every one of your Ministries and with that maybe 15 or 20 of your members of parliament all sorts of other people and it was a lively discussion about trying to move towards decriminalization and regulation of cannabis a pragmatic sensible discussion recognizing the reality that people here are using marijuana the last thing you need is to crack down marijuana and have people start turning to meth right I mean and the thing died down but what you did last year I have to tell you as we say in my country Mazel Tov that was impressive I mean congratulations that to pass a law to say we have an issue here High numbers of people especially young people are using substances that are being produced illegally quasi-legally gray Market Black Market whatever where almost nobody really knows what's in them where there's little evidence there that a prohibitionist approach will really stop young people from using it and to then begin for the government to be working with people in this gray Market industry to say let's come up with a process a regulatory process whereby producers of these substances can submit them from review and if they can demonstrate just like pharmaceutical companies do that these things have a significant margin of safety and that they pose minimal risk to Consumers and that therefore they can be legally approved that's a breakthrough I think what you somehow did here in New Zealand was to dust off the old drug laws and say you know what these are not fundamentally moralistic documents these are ultimately documents about protecting health and safety public and private and that if in fact a policy like your new psychoactive drugs law can result in less harm to both young people and adults and potentially less harm in terms of Public Safety then that will be the wiser policy and the fact that the government is so somehow putting its in premature on a drug that people use for fun to which people how can government do that oh forget about alcohol how can people do that well the fact of the matter is if the bottom line is about health and safety that's what it's called for when the Obama Administration said in late August that they were going to give Washington and Colorado a chance to implement their new legalization laws I think it's because they too dusted off the old drug laws and so that they too were about public health and Public Safety and our Deputy attorney general effectively said that if what Washington and Colorado are trying to do with legal regulation can better Advance public health and Public Safety than can persisting with the old failed prohibitionist policies then so be it that's what we will do so a lot of people around the world and I'll tell you this because I talk to people around the world are counting on you guys to do it right hopefully your politicians and your councils and and Hamilton Ella will wake up and realize that this is the right way to go hopefully the government will stick to its guns on this hopefully you will find a way to legally approve some of these substances hopefully the results will be positive in terms of the reduction of harm to the health of young people and then hopefully that will ignite a broader debate so that the Cannabis discussion can be reignited here whether it's being influenced by what's happening in my country or Uruguay or because of what you've done over here on this and then hopefully as some of your elected officials have suggested this model may take off around the world and that frame of thinking that ultimately this is not this is not about moralistic approach to demonizing and punishing people who put psychoactive drugs in their body that ultimately government's obligation is to reduce the harms to health and safety and where possible to maximize the positive values of these drugs that that will become the model for 21st century Global Drug control and New Zealand will go down in history as having played a pivotal role in that process of advancing drug policies grounded in science compassion health and human rights thanks a lot

IyxypmvIjXc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyxypmvIjXc | EASY WAY TO MAINTAIN A REEF AQUARIUM DOSING KALKWASSER DIY DRIPPER KIT | what's up everybody nine one five man here today just gonna do a little DIY kalkwasser dripper just some products that I had at the house leftover things and I'm gonna go ahead and do kalkwasser still this is gonna be from my 24 gallon all-in-one tank and it's a lot of benefit for it basically learn my lesson when I use this in my 20 gallon auto top off from my 120 gallon tank um so what I'm gonna do is instead of using this in an auto top off reservoir I just got a regular tea bottle and drilled a hole in it the tubing that I went with is actually from a repair that I was doing on a toilet the tubing is you adjust the water flow in it and I didn't even use it so I decided to go ahead and use it from my project the silicone is the aqua yarn brand didn't I didn't even know that it was a black silicone I thought it was clear but this works out for me great and I picked it up at Petsmart or Petco one of those places it doesn't have to be pretty picture tubing through there and then silicone it the important thing is that it is watertight the cap I didn't even use the cap I thought I was gonna use it too for the whole project but if you have the cap on it will not drip now as you can see it just has a little nozzle right there you just adjust it you know and go from there the cap washer that I'm going with is the BRS kalkwasser I'm not using a whole lot is just like half a teaspoon I may go ahead and increase it to a whole teaspoon later on but a half a teaspoon for a 24 gallon tank should do just fine of course the water you want to use the community that tank water or regular ro/di water I know the popular method is just to throw it in your auto top off reservoir but it just makes a big mess for me another thing that a lot of reefers are doing is adding vinegar vinegar is has a lot of uses and also it applies to using it in cal classroom another thing that people are doing is making their own kalkwasser basically go to the store and you buy a couple bags of pickling lime i'm sure last for a long time but for me I'll just go ahead and purchase it I really don't like to mess around but I'm just gonna buy it I bought it from book resupply it's gonna last me for a long time anyways and as you can see I'm just adjusting the flow there's a little bit too fast light I actually dialed it down very very slow drip and it'll drip in my tank for like a whole week and a half with just this little thing and for me that's good enough what I'm trying to do is just you know keep the calcium up get a little bit of coralline algae in this tank and just purple up my rock keep things pretty easy with just regular kalkwasser but there's a lot of benefits in using kalkwasser it's supposed to bind with the phosphates and then it gets taken out with your protein skimmer just a whole bunch of little things I thought I'd make this little video for you guys it's a real easy project to do basically is just a water bottle with some tubing and something to adjust the flow and it's dripping into a high flow area well guys I'll just keep it short in the video here thanks for watching guys like subscribe and you guys take care | 915Mang | UC4_kJlIUlbsoT6X69ECZM7w | 2016-07-15 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 644 | 3,148 |
WFKosuw3JMk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFKosuw3JMk | UK Parliamnet overthrown - Plan Bee - New EU Taxes - EU Warns Bulgaria - EU Local | tonight's top eu stories from the unit website include the stolen referendum european court robs britain a vote by overturning a uk opt-out with your help this plan might just save the bees european union creates export group to study how to tax digital companies and bulgarian parliament approves extensions of ban on farmland sale to foreigners until 2020 plus local authorities and civil society under eu control i'm rick timmis and this is the unit nightly news first from our homepage okay before we start i am raising the red flag on this story this is critical and absolutely key if this story holds up to scrutiny then my friends we're toast a european court's ruling effectively overturning britain's opt-out to the charter on fundamental rights has robbed the uk of a referendum tory mps are claiming their dismay follows comments from a high court judge yesterday making clear that britain's watertight opt-out has been rendered meaningless by the european court of justice the uk secured its opt-out during the lisbon treaty negotiations meaning the charter's numerous rights including the right to strike and right to marry did not apply in britain but mr justice mostin said yesterday that a ruling from the european courts of justice in 2011 made clear the opt-out did not exempt the uk from the obligations to comply with the provisions of the charter he added the constitutional significance of this can hardly be overstated now can i just hop in with a quote from edward heath he said i need hardly mention that there is no threat to essential sovereignty lies here is a clear testimony of an act of treason now if the government had proposed a treaty change to include the charter of fundamental rights into british law that would have triggered a referendum under the eu bill so the court has just circumvented a referendum now bill cash asked what can be done to stop this coach in horses going through acts of parliament invading our supremacy and what can you and mr speaker to to defend this parliament cash also told politics uk his party leadership's attempt to blame labor was unfair because david cameron's shadow cabinet had rejected his call for the lisbon treaty legislation to explicitly state the charter of fundamental rights would not apply to uk law it couldn't be worse he said well keith vaz the chair of the commons home affairs committee famously said in 2000 that the charter of fundamental rights had no more legal effect than a copy of the bino however tim aker head of policy at ukip said david cameron was presiding over a pathetically weak administration that's not prepared to stand up to strasbourg on the issue once again we see that tory euro skepticism is a pipe dream rather than a working reality he commented now if this stands folks then we're in trouble and here's why british law is based upon case law and legal precedence what it enables is a legal system that operates by forbidding certain things and anything that is not expressly forbidden is legal and as a free people you can do what you like so long as the law does not say that you cannot the charter of fundamental rights is the eu constitution's book this is a massive book it's some 400 pages of close typed rules and regulations and under this european legal charter if the book doesn't say you have the right to do it then under law you don't and that my friends is why i do this because this is not just tom foodry or crank conspiracy the assimilation of every nation state into a mandated federal state of europe has been the goal all along this is the end game folks if we don't act now then we will be unable to act ever help us tell your friends about us get them to sign up for our newsletter organize a public event and get in touch with andrew fira our response unit he will help you with speakers information dvds etc write to me i will cover your emails on the nightly news write articles for our website and of course follow us on twitter subscribe to our youtube channel and share our videos far and wide they're all cc licensed for that very purpose and of course join our community on google plus if not today folks then when now today we really need your help as you'll know from the nightly news reports and on our website there has been much controversy over the decline of the bee population and we have been reporting on the legal challenge between bayer and syngenta and the european union as they battle over whether or not to allow the continued use of neonicotinoid pesticides which have been blamed for the decline in bee populations and we have a great article in our lettuce section written by edwin spicens a member of the unit community on google plus edwin is involved with some of us a voluntary organization that is targeting pr media towards syngenta and bayer and the eu case in an effort to defend the bee populations now make no bones about this situation b population decline is absolutely happening and this is a very dire threat to the natural world and more importantly directly to us our agriculture without the bees there is simply no pollination no fruit no berries and no plant life cycle the some of us group are taking the fight to bayer and syngenta and looking to make a big noise about this issue to ensure that the eu upholds this legislation and they need our help so please go take a look at their website the links are below and see what you can do to help them out with this one and a very big thanks to edwin spicens for bringing us on board with this one european union experts will study how to tax the digital economy and recommend next steps for making sure technology companies pay their fair share the european commission said a high level expert group will be assembled to identify problems and recommend solutions the brussels-based commission will then make proposals on how to implement the recommendations currently corporate tax avoidance and aggressive tax planning are particularly problematic in the digital economy the commission said and this is due to the global and intangible nature of these companies and the fact that today's tax rules were not designed with e-commerce in mind now we've asked our legislative research team to keep a watchful eye on this our bet is that this will result in eu wide taxation systems and you can rest assured that that's going to cost more not less we'll keep you posted as the story develops bulgaria's parliament has approved an extension of the ban on the sale of farmland to foreigners until 2020 defying warnings by the european union lawmakers on tuesday voted 171 171-38 in favor of a motion introduced by the nationalist party attica extending the ban by seven years although bulgaria had pledged when it joined the eu in 2007 that the ban would be lifted on january the 1st next year now economically bulgaria is weak asset values are low and compared to other eu countries their land is a bargain this is the reason behind the eu expansion program into economically struggling states big corporations can buy national assets at bargain basement prices giving them control of resources and production this is exactly what has happened to the uk since we joined in nineteen seventy two at the time britain was described as the sick man of europe with inflation at 27 the uk had to go to the imf cap in hand to avoid economic collapse we were welcomed with open arms into the eu but the price we paid was the destruction of our national balance sheet there have been many developments of late at both eu level and international level which have focused on more ambitious partnerships with civil society organizations and local authorities these developments have been based on the principles of human rights including economic social and cultural rights as well as international treaties on environment and biodiversity protection and democracy and accountability the report sets out that democratic responsibility lies not just with the governments but also the csos and local authorities and of course national parliaments for these play a vital role in linking citizens with the government don't you just love the eu rhetoric democratic responsibility that's the sophisticated way of saying if you don't do what we say then you're a right-wing fascist neo-nazi freedom-hating gimboid now this report has some absolute nuggets in it but what does it all mean well my take is this is the eu creating policy to give it control over local authority agenda frameworks now i have talked about this before an agenda framework is where what appears to be a free thinking board or panel is actually operating within a framework the previous story is a great example the bulgarians want to retain a law that protects their land from sale to anyone outside the country the national policy makers cannot enact this because the eu law forbids it so the bulgarians either breach the framework or work within it now because much of the civil service in the uk uses the rule book as a bible then when setting agendas for discussion anything that is outside of eu bounds cannot be discussed or enacted so you can see that the eu with this framework cleverly and discreetly controls the nation states public policy makers like animatronic puppets on a string this is a great legislative article and well worth your time to take a look today in our video library yesterday we reported on the eu referendum yougov poll that reported 39 want to leave the eu and an equal 39 want to remain in frankly i think these figures were trumped up purely for media effect however we set up our own poll and some of you have already been clicking your mouse and voting and right now the figures look wildly different from the yougov poll with 97 of you wanting to leave and just two percent wanting to remain in well we're pushing this on twitter and social media and email and we really need your help to spread the word ideally we would like to see a thousand votes placed in this poll so please help us out by telling as many people as you can about it now returning back to our critical story the eu charter of fundamental rights don't just take my word for it how about hearing it from this pretty irish girl a vivacious young female always softens the blow don't you think charter of fundamental rights of the european union a document listing eu citizens civil political social and economic rights under a range of headings some of the headings include general principles rather than particular rights while other rights are said to be subject to national laws the charter was drafted in 2000 but only became part of the eu law when the treaty of lisbon came into effect in december 2009 so there you have it folks the eu charter of fundamental rights your rule book a document listing eu citizens civil political social and economic rights under a range of headings i'm rick timmis reporting for the unit nightly news i'll see you soon you |

Rp5WshjQYP8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rp5WshjQYP8 | Powers Of X #6 House Of X aka The House That Moira Built | welcome back to comic book news today we're gonna talk about what else powers of X number six the final issue in the house of X powers of X slash powers of 10 mega event leading into the all new dawn of X but is it done of X or is it croco and X well we've got a little special treat for you today if you hold up your phone and look at this little code here you can download an actual TrueType font of the croco and alphabet this is fun to play around with and we're using it for lots of fun stuff here on the channel including o croco and lower thirds this is just one of the exciting new elements we're adding to the show so hey let's not waste any more time let's get started today on comic book news welcome to the show yeah I'm I'm Dan Shaheen that's right we're we're kicking it in crack Owen and we're talking about what else we're talking about powers of X number six this is where it all ends for the powers of X house of X saga that's rebooting a whole new era of the x-men let me tell you this is burning up the sales charts it's by far the most popular stuff on this year YouTube channel that you're watching right now and so thank you for that and you know what let's not waste any time let's go straight into the all-new brand new million dollar comics Wow that's right we've got an all-new set up and upgrades for the million-dollar comic cam I think you'll see a little less glare a little more visibility on the pages and let's dive straight in to powers of X number six the House of X right this is gonna fill in several key questions are answered in this issue and of course a few more questions are opened up so we start at the beginning of x-men in the year 1 and this is in the current timeline Moira Taggarts knife life ok and we get to see her again introducing herself to Charles Xavier for the first time and dropping some pretty cryptic clues here about things that might be might be coming down the line in the form of these sort of tarot card like images but also granting access to Charles Xavier we've seen this before right but we're gonna learn some new stuff about what happened in this issue okay next we jump into X 3 x-men in the year 1000 right so this whole time we've been wondering what timeline are we looking at in the X 3 part right if this is the part that examines a thousand years in the future the far future it appears like the mutants have been dominated by this by the human robot combo they got together and put push down the mutants and now the Phalanx has come and humanity is gonna ascend into into godhood essentially ok so we go to the Year 1000 and we'll quickly see that the the librarian who's been sort of like our our narrator through this X 3 section sort of the main protagonist almost see they've got a sanctuary of mutants and who's in the sanctuary but spoiler alert good old Logan and and someone else a key player is revealed and we get to see pretty soon and it's revealed through the dialogue if you can't tell who this is this is Moira MacTaggert so this is Moira living 2,000 years in the future Wow what does this mean so they the the librarian is basically revealing that you know humanity tomorrow humanity is gonna send right the phalanx is gonna come they've judges worthy we're gonna get joined into the fail and then the phalanx is gonna go to the nearest black hole and are gonna merge with an other mega artificial intelligences right that we explored in the previous issue right we looked at all the different levels of artificial intelligences so the idea here is humanity is gonna join the Phalanx they will join that once they join that they will transcend all space and time okay another thing that the librarian reveals to these mutants is that that you know in in as it begins he's speaking presumably whatever there are languages but he quickly switches into English which is a surprise to Wolverine and Moira and you know he reveals look I've been watching you it's it's not just about like preserving your species I've been getting information from you and he has figured out what's going on with Moira and we learned a really critical point about her powers that we've talked about here which is that if she dies does the universe she died in continue on or is it like snuffed out and everything is restarted again we learn in this issue from the librarian that it seems like those universes are snuffed out so it's not like those previous time lines of of lives are still continuing on somewhere after Moira disappears from them or dies in them they are gone everything is rebooted and he reveals that look we're gonna keep you alive until humanity ascends to God it and if we ascend to godhood then we then transcend all space and time so even if you die and are rebooted or whatever it won't matter right we will be so probably so far beyond that it won't matter and we would just be able to put a stop to you right he's basically he's like you know there's no way if we reach that level I doubt that we're gonna allow something like you to exist frankly they're like you know why why are you even telling us this which is a really great question right because he's like look um there's no way you can kill me I'm can even start to try to hurt me I formulated a plan to defeat you that's how how smart these post-humans are right these are the post-humans these blue guys this is what humanity ultimately became by creating artificial intelligent machines and then working with them and genetically engineering humanity into sort of the next level of humanity where as mutants are the next natural evolutionary level after humanity humanity decided to short-circuit nature altogether and use technology and use their brains to become these post humans and frankly when you reveal to Moira and this is that what you never realized is that really it's us it's the post humans it's it's it's humans are the true or enemies of mutants right because you know you thought it was the machines that would defeat you but we just used them to buy time right and then the Sentinels bought us years nimrod bought us decades and this is where Moira is realizing it I never saw it and I guess you never will right you were just too busy you couldn't see the true enemy the whole time it's not about cooperating at Amanda humanity is the enemy and you know why are you telling me this how you can give me a chance I'm giving you a chance to convince me because I've been thinking about it and if we ascend to godhood and whatever I'm not gonna have a material form anymore I'm not gonna be a be a human anymore or posthuman we're just gonna be this sort of ethereal mental construct and you know what I don't know if that's worth living is that just an artificial state is that real it's kind of an existential question really interesting I mean he's a post human but he's still a human and he's like I'll never be able to like eat a sandwich again he doesn't say that but you know what I'm saying I'll never be able to sniff a flower you know whatever I never we don't do those things that make life worth living as a human so basically he's kind of waxing like I don't know I guess I really got no choice I guess I'll just become a god and suddenly Wolverines like how's that for fast he's like how's that faster than the speed of thought I don't really think that he was I really think that the posthuman has decided to tell he's hipping them to all this right he's telling them this so that they will kill Moira and prevent this from happening and more and so what do we learn and then the key reveal here just really spoiler alert this is really important so ends the sixth life of Moira X so when we've looked at our timeline before the sixth life has always been blanked out we have no idea what happened now we realized that this was the life that Moira lived all the way through to see the Ascension see up to this ascension event and finally realizing that there is really no way to cooperate with humanity right and then in her next life next several eyes seven eight she is she's tried different ways of fighting against out whether that was joining with apocalypse like we saw in the eighth life or trying to like snuff out all of the creators of the Sentinels all that stuff realizing didn't work and so when it came to her ninth life in the current life she decided it's gonna go a different way and you're gonna hook up with Charles Xavier and recruit Magneto and they're gonna form their own stronghold they're gonna form their own mutant nation and in essence they're gonna cooperate but really the secret agenda here is driven by Moira knowing that that the death of mutant demeans inevitable with the rise of humanity so in reality is humanity now that the secret true enemy of mutant demand the x-men maybe we get some of our nice little text pieces here that we're gonna come back to this was not super informative but we'll come back to it so we learn more we learned that Moira is like look Charlie you've always been the same every life that I've known you you are just like the most hopeful person you're like a weekend humanity is good at its heart and we can work together and she has decided basically she's gonna have to break him she's gonna have to break Charles of that notion that Humanity is here to help and that that mutants need to just separate and and really protect themselves right from this inevitable completely inevitable rise of post humanity so maybe that's what they need to stop supposed to Mandy anyway we go into Moyers journal this is another three page long text and we get lots of juicy stuff in here we're gonna come right back to but let's finish it up we come back to present day timeline 9 the beginning of this whole hasa axe mutant dumb deal and here where is Moira who's been conspicuously absent through all the series she's been hiding in her hidden cache and this is where she in they reveal in some of the text pieces what's been going on with Moira because if you are a fan of x-men over the past umpteen years you realize that in a more recent storyline Moira was like killed on Shire I haven't read that issue yet but I did some research right so mortar has been dead in continuity up until a house of X number one debuted now we're seeing that she's behind the scenes and not only is she behind the scenes of this whole house axe movement if you will she's been behind the scenes of the x-men sort of twiddling fiddling events for a long long time and I don't know if this is symbolic or what but you know magneto comes in serving and bringing tea like as a gesture of peace but we're seeing magneto and Charles essentially like serving tea to Magneto sorry to Moira and I feel like it's sort of symbolic of like where the true power lies right and but they reveal that okay they've created the mutant council it's lately filled with exception of 1c right the Hellfire Club sprit so there's the four seasons or four branches there's the seasoned older leaders there's xavier magneto and apocalypse right then there's the sort of summer branch the the younger mutants and that's a cyclops storm and night crawlers or three like senior x-men then we have the Hellfire Club branch which right now is going to be Sebastian Shaw and the White Queen and they have a third seat a Red King seat meant to be filled that has not been filled yet and we've seen some stuff that spoils it that maybe that's gonna be Kitty Pryde maybe in a sort of like twist I'd be interesting and then the final group which is sort of like the problem group right and that consists of who is it Exodus mr. sinister and and that third problem guy right so we go back and we we come back into the final events of house of X number six that we saw where it ends on you know just look at what we've made but then we get to see sort of the the coda to that in like yeah we've made it but is it enough and you know finally we get to see a quote I am not ashamed of what I am from Magneto this was the title of a previous issue and let but let them try to stop us this time and yes let them try right and this is I am not ashamed of what I am this is the end so we go what's next this is the dawn of X right these are all the new books coming out and as we can see well let's let's look at them in the native crow Cohen which now if you've been reading this long enough it's starting to stick to the point where I can actually kind of read it we know this says next right so we know that's the X and we that says N and that's an e xt right so down here what do we got but x-men right that's the M and that's the end they're similar x-men good fun then Excalibur next next oh sorry no that was not Excalibur this is the Marauders then X caliber you can almost start to read it some of them even even more than others here's the X force right that kind of looks like X force so [Music] good fun and then of course that looks like New Mutants and then this one is fallen Angelz right so this is what's coming next in the in the dawn of X and you know what I'm gonna at least read the number one of all of those I'm not super jazzed about the non hickman written stuff but what are you gonna do so let's go back and and go through those text pieces really quick we talked about I'm just gonna whip this out right Moira's Journal this is where it really all goes down this is really the important stuff so much is revealed here basically she's revealing and we're seeing this is throughout time different journal entries over time and we're able to kind of read between the lines and see where this takes place sort of in different parts of x-men continuity right so in the beginning this is early on in the relationship she took months but she reveals that you know when she opened her mind xavier he kind of got a glimpse but he does not have total recall over all the events of all those lives like she does right so if she wants if he really wants to understand questions she has to interpret them so she is really kind of manipulating his control and she's like sure he could go in and look again but one I don't want him to and too even if he does he'll he won't he'll dig into one specific event he's not gonna look at everything so he'll never really know the true clan and as if to know you know point out even more that she's got circuit secrets right we've got the redacted part so let's shrink down a little more perfect so we've got the redacted portions but next I have a choice to make I've been lying to myself about what I'm capable of right basically she's feeling like she's becoming romantically involved with with Charles Xavier to try and break him to try and get him to like forget about humanity and it's working next is revealed is really interesting they had a breakthrough with Charles Xavier right Xavier says like I've got this idea if we get the right combination of five mutants together we can do something cool which we've learned in previous issues is to reincarnate mutants including their minds but what's missing is a mutant that can tweak reality they don't have one of those right what that I've used my expertise in genetic modification to find potential matches for both Charles and me to produce such a mutant and there are several possibilities now we know they used Proteus and we know that they got together to create Purdue they intentionally create Proteus for the purposes of this master plan it'd be interesting to go back to those old Proteus issues and and see how that could or possibly fit in okay next magneto they've recruited magneto and I'm assuming this is the time when magneto became the leader of the x-men in our current continuity and she talks about what he's kind of an [ __ ] he's like you know the other side of the coin of Xavier in many ways including like personality-wise next is apocalypse basically like you know he's he's he's been brought in so in his raw primal state and sees the whole world as unfit so much so that he will test everything to find something to build on what must be done now is the avoidance of an apocalypse event and the prevention of certain omega-level mutant falling under his sway now we do know that his original four horsemen are trapped somewhere in krakow or one of the crew cohen islands so i'm sure there's a lot more to come get another redaction ok I have underestimated what savers asta nation with the possibilities of what can and cannot be accomplished with mutant genetic material basically she's revealing here that when Xavier and Magneto went to bar sinister and recruited mr. sinister they did that without her knowledge or asking or anything they sort of did it and she's like geez these men next look like mania we have lost Magneto I'm assuming this is later when magneto turn from the cause and goes back to being an evil mutant right and they're finally regarding Xavier ah she says I have Boyer says I've decided to remove myself from the world I've become too active of force in this and put both myself on our great plan at risk we will fake my death using a replica I will return to the shadows where I belong this is basically revealing that when she did die in that previous story that I talked about they took a previous version of her consciousness took her made the clone or husk of her but stripped it presumably of her reincarnation power put an older version of the memories killed that that's why Moira has been out of sight and in the shadows where she belongs as she says this is pretty interesting stuff Moira is quite the shadowy influence we still have not revealed what if anything is going on under Xavier his helmet I refuse to believe that they're not showing his face for this entire series since he's had the helmet on since krakoa is meaningless I refused it means something right so we're gonna figure out what that is hopefully at some point theory time so what are the theories here one of them that they showed the previous issue that Helmut sort of sitting on a stump inca kola we know krakoa what krakoa does is makes it can make replicas of people that's back from its old continuity so is that what's going on here with with the helmet who knows what I do know is we've got a new feature I want to introduce here you may have noticed a really interesting thumbnail image on this video perhaps you clicked on I'm sick and tired of boring old thumbnails either with my face or just a cover or just like some text so I'm gonna try finding fun interesting pertinent thumbnail images when I can on the internet and I'm reaching out to people and talking to them and asking for their permission to use them as thumbnails and and luckily trial by tentacles agreed he'd take some really great macro photos of like action figures and just they're really great he's got a lot of great House of X stuff I recommend going to check it out I'm gonna put a link in the comments not in the comments but in the description below this video so go check that out thanks for checking that out thanks for checking this video out we're gonna be back soon with more stuff including the Batman's grave another awesome comic I've been looking forward to checking out and reviewing that'll be coming up next in the meantime hey thanks for watching and supporting and we'll see you next

VDR43OaVBBM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDR43OaVBBM | SFWDA - Off Road Child Safety, Part 1 - Child Safety Seat | [Music] [Applause] [Music] good morning I'm Brandon Burton fire chief city of wahala Fire Department this morning we're here with a southern foil drive Association to talk about the proper and safe installation of car safety seats for children Valhalla fire department is also a partner with safe kids upstate through the Greenville hospital system to become a car seat installation checking station when a parent or a caregiver comes to us at the fire department and ask us to check their child safety seat one of the first things we turn to is a owners manual for the vehicle that you bring inside the owners manual you'll find information pertaining to how to correctly anchor a given car seat into your vehicle there are several methods that you can use and we'll go through those later in the video once we look through the owners manual to make sure number one that the car seat can be safely and correctly installed into the vehicle we we often turn to our phones and our tablets and look at a safer car app because we'll take the the name the model number and the year that the car seat was manufactured punch this in to make sure that the car seat has not been recalled once we have done that we will visually inspect the car seat make sure all the components and parts and pieces are there it's not been involved in a previous crash and there's no obvious signs of damage to the car seat gotten the appropriate car seat for the child we wish to restraint again it's rear-facing it's in the rear passenger side of the vehicle there are several ways that we can anchor this seat down to the actual car seat the way we're going to demonstrate right now is using the shoulder belt what you want to do is pull the seat belt all the way out the shoulder belt all the way out to make sure that it doesn't in fact lock this one's retracting and locking and that's what you want you will feed your buckle and your belt through the seat and most child seats have labels and diagrams on how to correctly do this and you can hear it click as we bring it back up get the child seat positioned in here make sure it is no more than a ghibli side to side and that's the shoulder belt installation and attachment of a car seat to the vehicle see here we've graduated up to the forward-facing child seat actually it's the same seat but depending on your child's height then weight you can turn the seat around from a rear-facing to a Ford facing car seat then depending on the manufacturer several things you need to take into account is the state requirement some states require the child being a rear-facing seat for up to two years some may not have that requirement so you need to check your requirement your state requirement and check the manufacturers recommendations on that as well there's a several ways to anchor a forward-facing child safety seat we're going to demonstrate a couple of those the most common way and vehicles now is to use the anchors and the tether system and we'll demonstrate that same way as the rear-facing seat you just find your anchor points inside the seat and in clip and also with this seat I also have a back tether so where I can hook you into the back of the seat back here so way the front of the seat doesn't go up here we've graduated up to a high-back booster seat this is the next step beyond the front-facing child restraint seat operation of this is a little bit different as you can see we've taken out the harness system in it because the child has outgrown the need for the harness and can can be safely restrained with a high-back booster and the shoulder belt you again you want to pull the shoulder belt until you hear it click so to lock in and securely restrain your child make sure it comes across the chest and lock it into the retainer clip and as with these high-back booster seats it's right here that goes around the child's head you can adjust it for the next stage of car seats we're gonna be using the booster seat which comes after the high-back booster and ask your child outgrows the high back ends put the child on in on the booster seat take seatbelts and put the seatbelt up make sure it goes across their waist area and across her shoulder not close their neck [Music] [Applause] [Music] | Southern Four Wheel Drive Association | UCb4oauSLkSONU_J9TeXDwsQ | 2018-03-08 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 791 | 4,252 |

pretty much it i think there's also some good items in here like an escape rope that's not a particularly good item but there are a few good items in here i think there's a couple tms you can get and stuff all right let's see about this guy who are you well how did you get here i i how i play these i always try to get in as many of the battles in an area as i can but then i'm not i don't go back and search for more that i missed or anything i don't care that much all right drowsy down yeah i've got you they'll have drowsy sometimes too much shop since drowsy is high leveled enough now or i mean derp rage is highly let's send this one over rover giving him some screen time since he's new all right last you're just on team rocket you'll be decent team rocket dog dog don't be decent team rocket all right moments have some time out front i'm gonna get tms for ground type moves like i was saying moments is arsenal's ground moves kind of lows dig i might actually have that and i just missed it i don't know all right this door i need a special card key to get in i think hello boston you can see ghost with the flip scope that's why we want it slip scope is a pretty cool item oh yeah it does have dig durr yeah the slip scope basically uh allows you to see ghastly which for some reason you can't see in this even though you can see it normally just fine in the other games it's just the wild ones maybe they maybe like the gas the native ghastly and kanto when they become agitated take on a different form or something i'm not really sure it's a rock slide i love rock slide one of the best moves there is all right dig dig a tunnel quick before the hyenas come viking one and a half is not good level 17 yeah goodbye i'm noticing a theme here for underground floors i think you can reach the boss yes absolutely all right no no no no i don't oh yeah it's good to know i can do that though probably not gonna all right so clearly there are different ways to go here i'm gonna go up this way and then like sort of maneuver moonstone that'll be useful uh on your clefairy on your nidoran may on your nidorino ornate arena on your wigglytuff that might be it and an xp you can you can really maneuver your way around the uh the platforms and crap and find some good items um okay be strategic especially if you want to get items like i went on that one cause i knew i could get taunt here which i don't know i'll ever use but i just like having it oh balda all right here what do we do um okay we want to go on this one no [ __ ] balls okay there we go all right there's one more item there i missed out here though okay there's the elevator which i'm not gonna use just yet i don't know if i can actually here we are back on the first floor why did you come here i don't know where even am i i'm sure it's a memory loss hyperfang hyper thing oh missed oh [ __ ] oh i love ragweed ragweed is the best eradicate yeah rattata instead of saving your big gun for last you got you saved your freaking malfunctioning pistol okay so you can take the elevator up to the down to the other fourth floor to the boss but if i recall correctly you can't get in there yet because you need a car key to get into the doors i won those red doors similarly when i uh showed us a minute ago here's an item it's a hyper potion i like those they're good on toast i believe it's from this guy that you get the card key i'm probably wrong all right let's do this buddy sparkly spatly no more splatly switching to rovio i'm just gonna call rover rodeo from now on i don't care i'm gonna change his name i'll leave his name as a rover but i'll refer to him as rubio [ __ ] all right i know i have some antidotes on me i'm not sure how many yeah don't freaking handle this where was the boss he's a good boy there we go level 31 that was quick flame wheel yeah i didn't even i forgot he could even learn that in this flame wheels cool move all right um yeah all right noise i can't do it slip scope hump i don't know where it is all right it's not from him maybe i'm not even thinking of the right part of the game where you have to get the card key i thought you did though i don't know oh it's good scared for a second though all right and if you're wondering i'm not going to evolve rover until pretty hey i said it over that time until a level fairly early on where um i believe what it is is if is uh he learns fire blast and then if you involve him at that let that particular level i think like 45 or something he also if you evolve him at that particular level you also learn extreme speed okay it's an elevator key that i need is what it is yes no i think it's 50 or something it's pretty high it's gonna be a while i hope you i hope he survives okay nothing over there more uh panels over here we'll get to that in just a second first we're gonna see what's over here hello we got word from upstairs you were coming we're making quick work on this place this part isn't that hard oh i apologize for the little icon that keeps coming up down there that's steam which i have on because i have a shortcut to my vba from steam all right everyone's now level 31 so i'll just keep spudley out front now does spelling evolve earlier than the others i don't remember any other stars ooh frustration like how sometimes the other tms where you get them are kind of like commentaries of what you're feeling at that time or like what's going on like you get the one for thief in here and you get the one for frustration because they think these panels are ever so frustrating they're not really that bad there's a rare candy use that right now hmm who could use a rare candy moments i think nah this is not gonna get used much yeah i'm gonna give that to spudley actually there you go whoa he does evolve early da that's awesome all right i didn't even know uh it evolved really for sure i thought it might i wasn't really sure all right there bridge cheer up because you're there all right we'll go back here back up here i guess and then what about to go this way yeah this one i don't remember exactly how it works this particular one i don't know where i have to go i think what i'll do in terms of recording this is get to the end of um of the hideout and chop that into however many videos it becomes probably just two or three oh yeah i'm okay to upload videos longer than 15 minutes now so i'll probably just do like two 15 minutes i think i'm gonna have about a half hour footage here you know why i i think maybe about that drowsy oh by the way how how i believe if i in unless i'm mistaken how i think i'm it's going to go with gobat evolving to crobat is um until i get the national decks of course there's more to do after um after being elite four and i'll be covering that i'll be including that in my walkthrough as well like the whole semi islands thing and everything that definitely should be included along with like a rematch with the elite four because their teams change the second time around um once you're the national decks i think then i can evolve it but until then like it'll start to evolve but then stop i think excuse me i was burping i think that was snatched there's a lot of shifty tf here hello the elevator doesn't work who has the lift key i think it might be this gentleman right here call me crazy i'm 10 levels above everything i think we're good here it's a zuzubat all right just mowing everything down oh no i dropped the lift key and it's not like i can just pick it up again your gyarados nodded my arm off and i'm surprisingly nonchalant about it all right so all right back up here we go uh which one was it [ __ ] okay here we go let's see here here we are okay which floor do you want the fourth one all right and uh what's coming up here i don't think there's anything else before it what's coming up is our first battle with giovanni it's like found one calcium oh oh yeah i need to fight both these guys they should have made this a double battle it was really cool team rocket grunt send out stands true it's gonna eat your shoe all right none of this should pose a problem here oh [ __ ] you off hockey oh that's the right difference you can enjoy this just one more turn okay doesn't bother anyone that i do the fast forward things so much like this i hope not because it's too bad it's much easier for me all right um i'm gonna put sparkles out why not attack hmm sandra has a little more defense than i thought it would defense curl chop arbuck's a badass pokemon i actually really hope i get to catch an ekkans or someone's i love arbuck soviet [ __ ] dick vaginal cavities vaginal cavity yeah yes there we go oh yeah yeah boss i am sorry i failed you no you're not all right so up here i'm switching out for spudley up here is gonna be our first uh i believe we have three fights with giovanni in the game yeah it's just three which is fine and here he is on his mob boss sofa he's basically an italian mobster all right and it's time to face him so i must say i am i'm impressed that you made it here team rocket captures pokemon from around the world the important tools for keeping our criminal enterprise going i am the leader giovanni i make him sound middle eastern for your insolence you will feel it will depend okay i like that voice all right giovanni he has an onyx i believe he has a riley gone or a right horn and probably the trio he uses ground types oh i think he has his king's punch whoa critical hit nice i think he has his kangaskhan too all right yeah i believe it's uh it's onyx right horn and kangaskhan i believe yep there's kangaskhan should i switch yeah look at this buddy poison powder mouth and bat get a little more on the cautious side i don't like those tail whips oh [ __ ] that was way too close and here you are what up oh spudley that was way too close what this can be it's a master ball he's holding it's purple i see that is pokemon with utmost care a child like you is what would never understand what i hope to achieve i shall step aside this time i hope we meet again and i'm going to do a different accent every time i meet him in the game obtain this let's go oh [ __ ] dog all right let's see oh [ __ ] let me hit that it's not the right button at all escape rope escape escape rope i got one i didn't know you ended oh my god i have four escape ropes oh yeah that's right keep getting from places where you don't need them all right heal up real quick glad i didn't leave any casualties figured it figured it wouldn't but uh spudley actually came closer than i expected i didn't see that coming i forgot that kangaskhan can be a bit of a beast okay um so i guess that concludes everything uh next episode next episode i'm probably gonna take a tour of the shopping center here real quick then we're gonna go down and uh down there is the gym and see that old pervert man looking in there next time we're gonna go fight the gym and um it's gonna be like i said it's gonna be what's over here oh yeah that's the next route um it's gonna be a lot of episodes like this is gonna be i think two episodes where i just recorded and and tonight and like a few hours from now i'm gonna record another at least hour just i'm so sorry for making you wait you beautiful beautiful people i love you so much um you're never going to want to watch my stuff again after you're hearing that are you alright so i guess for now until very soon this is the gaming psychosis psyching out | TheGamingPsychosis | UCG1AMeVGqQlEbQ_p4QLhCaA | 2012-04-18 |

R4_9MtHfLtk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4_9MtHfLtk | United States biological defense program | Wikipedia audio article | the United States biological defense program in recent years also called the National bio defense strategy began as a small defensive effort that paralleled the country's offensive biological weapons development and production program active between 1943 and 1969 organizationally the medical defense research effort was pursued first 1956 to 1969 by the US Army medical unit USA MU and later after the discontinuation of the offensive program by the US Army Medical Research Institute of infectious diseases USA MRI I D both of these units were located at Fort Detrick Maryland where the US Army biological warfare laboratories were headquartered the current mission as multi-agency not exclusively military and is purely to develop defensive measures against bio agents as opposed to the former bio weapons development program in 1951 due to biological warfare concerns arising from the Korean War the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC created the epidemic intelligence service ice a hands-on two-year postgraduate training program in epidemiology with a focus on fieldwork since the 2001 anthrax attacks and the consequent expansion of federal bio defense expenditures u.s. Amri ID has been joined at Fort Detrick by sister bio Defense agencies of the US Department of Health and Human Services ni AI DS integrated research facility and the US Department of Homeland Security the National bio defense analysis and countermeasures Center and the National bio forensic analysis Center these along with the much older foreign disease weed science research unit of the US Department of Agriculture now constitute the National Interagency Confederation for biological research ni CBR broadly defined the United States biological defense program now also encompasses all federal level programs and efforts to monitor prevent and contain naturally-occurring infectious disease outbreaks of widespread public health concern these include efforts to forestall large-scale disasters such as flu pandemics and other emerging infections such as novel pathogens are those imported from other countries today these US bio defense programs military and civilian have raised concerns that the u.s. may be pursuing research that is outlawed by the biological weapons convention BWC of 1972 topic overview biological agents have been used in warfare for centuries to produce death or disease in humans animals or plants the United States officially began its biological warfare offensive program in 1941 during the next 28 years the US initiative evolved into an effective military driven research and acquisition program shrouded in secrecy and later controversy most research and development was done at Fort Detrick Maryland while production and testing of bioweapons occurred at Pine Bluff Arkansas and Dugway proving ground DPG Utah field testing was done secretly and successfully with simulants and actual agents disseminated over wide areas a small defensive effort always paralleled the weapons development and production program with the presidential decision in 1969 to halt offensive biological weapons production and the agreement in 1972 at the International BWC never to develop produce stockpile or retain biological agents or toxins the program became entirely defensive with medical and non-medical components the u.s. biological defense research program exists today conducting research to develop physical and medical countermeasures to protect servicemembers and civilians from the threat of modern biological warfare both the u.s. bio weapons ban and the BWC restricted any work in the area of biological warfare to defensive in nature in reality this gives BWC Member States wide latitude to conduct biological weapons research because the BWC contains no provisions for monitoring of enforcement the treaty essentially is a gentlemen's agreement amongst members backed by the long prevailing thought that biological warfare should not be used in battle in recent years certain critics have claimed the u.s. stance on biological warfare and the use of biological agents has differed from historical interpretations of the BWC for example it is said that the u.s. now maintains that the article 1 of the BWC which explicitly bans bio weapons does not apply to non-lethal biological agents previous interpretation was stated to be in line with a definition laid out in public law 101 to 298 the biological weapons anti-terrorism Act of 1989 that law defined a biological agent as any microorganism virus infectious substance or biological product that may be engineered as a result of biotechnology or any naturally occurring or bioengineered component of any such microorganism virus infectious substance or biological product capable of causing death disease or other biological malfunction in a human and animal a plant or another living organism deterioration of food water equipment supplies or material of any kind according to the Federation of American scientists us work on non-lethal agents exceeds limitations in the BWC topic history you topic 1950s after World War two and with the onset of Cold War tensions the u.s. continued its clandestine wartime bio weapons program the Korean War 1952-53 added justification for continuing the program when the possible entry of the Soviet Union into the war was feared concerns over the Soviet Union were justified for the Soviet Union would pronounced in 1956 that chemical and biological weapons would indeed be used for mass destruction in future Wars in October 1950 the US Secretary of Defense approved continuation of the program based largely on the Soviet threat and a belief that the North Korean and Chinese Communists would use biological weapons with expansion of the biological warfare retaliatory program the scope of the defensive program was nearly doubled data were obtained on personnel protection decontamination and immunization early detection research produced prototype alarms for use on the battlefield but progress was slow apparently limited by technology the US Army medical unit under the direction of the US Army Surgeon General began formal operations in 1956 one of the unit's first missions was to manage all aspects of Project cd20 to the exposure of volunteers to aerosols containing a pathogenic strain of coxiella Brunetti the etiologic agent of Q fever the volunteers were closely monitored an antibiotic therapy was administered when appropriate all volunteers recovered from Q fever with no adverse after-effects one year later the unit submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration an investigational new drug application for aq fever vaccine topic 1960s in the following decade the u.s. accumulated significant data on personnel protection decontamination and immunization and in the offensive program on the potential for mosquitos to be used as biological vectors a new Department of Defense DoD biological and chemical defense planning board was created in 1960 to establish program priorities and objectives preventive approaches toward infections of all kinds were funded under the auspices of biological warfare as concern increased over the biological warfare threat during the Cold War so did the budget for the program 238 million dollars by fiscal year 1966 the US Army chemical Corps was given the responsibility to conduct biological warfare research for all of the services in 1962 the responsibility for the testing of promising biological warfare agents was given to a separate testing and evaluation command tech depending on the particular program different test centers were used such as the Deseret test center at Fort Douglas Utah the headquarters for the new biological and chemical warfare testing organization in response to increasing concerns over public safety and the environment the tech implemented a complex system of approval of its research programs that included the US army chief of staff the Joint Chiefs of Staff the Secretary of Defense and the President of the United States during the last 10 years of the offensive research and development program 1959 to 69 many scientific advances were made that proved that biological warfare was clearly feasible although dependent on careful planning especially with regard to meteorological conditions large-scale fermentation purification concentration stabilization drying and weaponization of pathogenic microorganisms could be done safely furthermore modern principles of biosafety and containment were established at the Fort Detrick laboratories which have greatly facilitated biomedical research in general still today these are followed throughout the world Arnold gee we demand a PhD a civilian scientist who was director of industrial health and safety at Fort Detrick was the leader in the development of containment facilities during the 1960's the u.s. program underwent a philosophical change an attention was now directed more towards biological agents that could incapacitate but not kill in 1964 research programs involved staphylococcal enterotoxins capable of causing food poisoning research initiatives also included new therapy and prophylaxis pathogens studied included the agents causing anthrax glanders brucellosis melioidosis plague psittacosis venezuelan equine encephalitis Q fever coccidioidomycosis and a variety of plant and animal pathogens particular attention was directed at chemical and biological detectors during the 1960's the first devices were primitive field alarms to detect chemicals although the development of sensitive biological warfare agent detectors was at a standstill two systems were nonetheless investigated the first was a monitor that detected increases in the number of particles sized one to five micrometers in diameter based on the assumption that a biological agent attack would include airborne particles of this size the second system involved the selective staining of particles collected from the air both systems lacked enough specificity and sensitivity to be of any practical use but in 1966 a research effort directed at detecting the presence of adenosine triphosphate a chemical found only in living organisms was begun by using a fluorescent material found in fireflies preliminary studies indicated that it was possible to detect the presence of a biological agent in the atmosphere the important effort to find a satisfactory detection system continues today for timely detection of a biological attack would allow the attacked force to use its protective masks effectively an identification of the agent would allow any pre treatment regimens to be instituted the US Army also experimented and developed highly effective barrier protective measures against both chemical and biological agents special impervious tents and personal protective equipment were developed including individual gas masks even for military dogs during the late 1960s funding for the biological warfare program decreased temporarily to accommodate the accelerating costs of the Vietnam War the budget for fiscal year 1969 was 31 million dollars decreasing to eleven point eight million dollars by fiscal year 1973 although the offensive program had been stopped in 1969 both offensive and defensive programs continued to be defended John s foster jr. director of Defense research and engineering responded to a query by Congressman Richard D McCarthy it is the policy of the u.s. to develop and maintain a defensive chemical biological CB capability so that our military forces could operate for some period of time in a toxic environment if necessary to develop and maintain a limited offensive capability in order to deter all use of CB weapons by the threat of retaliation in kind and to continue a program of research and development in this area to minimize the possibility of technological surprise on the 25th of November 1969 President Richard Nixon visited Fort Detrick to announce a new policy on biological warfare in to national security memoranda the US government renounced all development production and stockpiling of biological weapons and declared its intent to maintain only small research quantities of biological agents such as are necessary for the development of vaccines drugs and diagnostics ground was broken in 1967 for construction of a new modern laboratory building at Fort Detrick the building would open in phases during 1971 and 1972 with the disestablishment of the biological warfare laboratories the name of the US Army Medical unit which was to have been housed in the new laboratories was formally changed to US Army med Research Institute of infectious diseases us a MRI ID in 1969 the Institute's new mission was stated in general order 137 the 10th of November 1971 since superseded conduct studies related to medical defensive aspects of biological agents of military importance and develops appropriate biological protective measures diagnostic procedures and therapeutic methods the emphasis now shifted away from offensive weapons to development of vaccines diagnostic systems personal protection chemo prophylaxis and rapid detection systems topic 1970s after Nixon declared an end to the US bio weapons program debate in the army centered around whether or not toxin weapons were included in the president's declaration following Nixon's November 1969 order scientists at Fort Detrick worked on one toxin Staphylococcus enterotoxin type B said for several more months Nixon ended the debate when he added toxins to the bio weapons ban in February 1970 in response to Nixon's 1969 decision all anti-personnel biological warfare stocks were destroyed between the 10th of May 1971 and the first of May 1972 the laboratory at Pine Bluff arsenal Arkansas was converted to a toxicological research laboratory and was no longer under the direction or control of the DoD biological anti crop agents were destroyed by February 1973 biological warfare demilitarization continued through the 1970s with input provided by the US Department of Health Education and Welfare US Department of the Interior US Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency Fort Detrick and other installations involved in the biological warfare program took on new identities and their missions were changed to biological defense and the development of medical countermeasures the necessary containment capability biosafety levels three and four bsl-3 and bsl-4 continued to be maintained at USA MRI I D you topic 1980s in 1984 the DoD requested funds for the construction of another biological aerosol test facility in Utah the proposal submitted by the army called for BSL for containment although maintaining that the BSL for inclusion was based on a possible need in the future and not on a current research effort the proposal was not well received in Utah where many citizens and government officials still recalled the secretive projects of the military the areas on DPG still contaminated with anthrax spores and the well-publicized accidental chemical poisoning of a flock of sheep in skull Valley Utah in March 1968 questions arose over the safety of the employees and the surrounding communities and a suggestion was even made to shift all biological defense research to a civilian agency such as the National Institutes of Health the plan for a new facility was revised to utilize a bsl-3 facility but not before the US Congress had instituted more surveillance reporting and control measures on the army to ensure compliance with the BWC topic 1990s in the 1990s the us medical biological defense research effort part of the US Army's biological defense research program BDR P was concentrated at USA MRI I D at Fort Detrick the Army maintains state-of-the-art containment laboratory facilities there with more than 10,000 feet two of bsl-4 and 50,000 feet two of bsl-3 laboratory space bsl-4 the highest containment level included laboratory suites that are isolated by internal walls and protected by rigorous entry restrictions airlocks negative pressure air handling systems and filtration of all outflow air through high efficiency particulate air hepa filters workers in bsl-4 laboratories also wore filtered positive pressure total body suits which isolated the workers from the internal air of the laboratory bsl-3 laboratories had a similar design but do not require that personnel wear positive pressure suits workers in bsl-3 suites were protected immunologically by vaccines u.s. governmental standards provided guidance as to which organisms might be handled under various containment levels in laboratories such as USA MRI ID the unique facilities available at USA MRI I D also included a 16 bed clinical research ward capable of bsl-3 containment and a two-bed patient care isolation suite the medical containment suite MCs known as the slammer where ICU level care could be provided under BSL for containment here healthcare personnel wore the same positive pressure suits as are worn in BSL for research laboratories the level of patient isolation required depended on the infecting organism and the risk to health care providers patient care can be provided at bsl-4 there were no patient care category analogous to bsl-3 humans who are ill as a result of exposure to BSL three agents were to be cared for in an ordinary hospital room with barrier nursing procedures USA our IID guidelines were prepared to determine which level of containment would be employed for individual patients who required BSL for isolation or barrier nursing care staff augmentation for BSL for critical care expertise came from the Walter Reed Army Medical Center WR AMC Washington DC in accordance with a memorandum of agreement between the two institutions patients could be brought directly into the bsl-4 suite from the outside through specialized ports with unique patient isolation equipment the MCS was decommissioned and discontinued in December 2010 additionally starting in the 1970s USA MRI I D maintained a unique evacuation capability known as the era medical isolation team eight led by a physician and a registered nurse each of the two teams consisted of eight volunteers who trained intensively to provide an evacuation capability for casualties suspected of being infected with highly transmissible life-threatening bsl-4 infectious diseases eg hemorrhagic fever viruses the unit used special adult-sized Vickers isolation units Vickers medical containment stretcher transit isolator these units were aircraft transportable and isolated a patient placed inside from the external environment the eight could transport two patients simultaneously obviously this was not designed for a mass casualty situation during the 1995 outbreak of Ebola fever in Zaire the eight remained on alert to evacuate any US citizens who might have become ill while working to control the disease in that country during this period some biological defence research also continued at the US Army Medical Research Institute of chemical defense Edgewood Arsenal Maryland and the Walter Reed Army Institute of research WRA I R Washington DC USA MRI ID and these sister laboratories conducted basic research in support of the medical component of the u.s. biological defense research program which developed strategies products information procedures and trained for medical defense against biological warfare agents the products included diagnostic reagents and procedures drugs vaccines toxoids and antitoxins emphasis is placed on protecting personnel before any potential exposure to the biological agent occurs in 1997 United States law formally defined weaponize Abobo agents as biological select agents or toxins be SATs or simply select agents for short which fall under the oversight of either the US Department of Health and Human Services or the US Department of Agriculture or both and which have the potential to pose a severe threat to public health and safety in 1998 several DoD organizations consolidated to create the defense Threat Reduction agency DTRA headquartered in Fort Belvoir Virginia this agency is DoD's official combat support agency for countering weapons of mass destruction including bio agents DTRA s main functions are Threat Reduction threat control combat support and technology development in the US national interest DTRA supports projects at more than 14 locations around the world including Russia Kazakhstan Azerbaijan whose Becca Stan Georgia and Ukraine in 1999 national pharmaceutical stockpile renamed strategic national stockpile in 2002 was created under the oversight of DHHS in the same year the laboratory response network a collaborative effort within the US federal government involving the association of public health laboratories and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was established to facilitate the confirmatory diagnosis and typing of possible bio agents also in 1999 President Bill Clinton issued executive order criteria of defense only under informed consent only the president may waive the necessity for informed consent topic two thousands three secret DoD projects involving countermeasures against anthrax codenamed project Bacchus project clear vision and project Jefferson were publicly disclosed by the New York Times in 2001 the projects were undertaken between 1997 and 2000 and focused on the concern that the old Soviet BW program was secretly continuing and had developed a genetically modified anthrax weapon since the September 11th attacks and the 2001 anthrax attacks the US government has allocated nearly 50 billion dollars to address the threat of biological weapons funding for bioweapons related activities focuses primarily on research for an acquisition of medicines for defense bio defense funding also goes toward stockpiling protective equipment increased surveillance and detection of bio agents an improving state and hospital preparedness significant funding goes to Barda biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority part of DHHS funding for activities aimed at prevention has more than doubled since 2007 and is distributed among 11 federal agencies efforts toward cooperative international action are part of the project a select agent program s AP was established to satisfy requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and the public health security and bioterrorism preparedness and response Act of 2002 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention administers the si P which regulates the laboratories that may possess use or transfer select agents within the United States the project Bioshield Act was passed by Congress in 2004 calling for five billion dollars for purchasing vaccines that would be used in the event of a bioterrorist attack according to president george w bush project Bioshield will transform our ability to defend the nation in three essential ways first project Bioshield authorizes 5.6 billion dollars over ten years for the government to purchase and stockpile that scenes and drugs to fight anthrax smallpox and other potential agents of bioterror the DHHS has already taken steps to purchase 75 million doses of an improved anthrax vaccine for the strategic national stockpile under project Bioshield HHS is moving forward with plans to acquire a safer second generation smallpox vaccine an antidote to botulinum toxin and better treatments for exposure to chemical and Radiological weapons this was a 10-year program to acquire medical countermeasures to biological chemical radiological and nuclear agents for civilian use a key element of the act was to allow stockpiling and distribution of vaccines which had not been tested for safety or efficacy in humans due to ethical concerns efficacy of these agents cannot be directly tested in humans without also exposing humans to the chemical biological or radioactive threat being treated in these cases efficacy testing follows the US Food and Drug Administration animal rule for pivotal animal efficacy since 2007 USA MRI ID has been joined at Fort Detrick by sister bio defense agencies of the US Department of Health and Human Services NIAID s integrated research facility and the US department of homeland security the national bio defense analysis and countermeasures Center and the National bio forensic analysis Center these along with the much older foreign disease weed science research unit of the US Department of Agriculture now constitute the National Interagency Confederation for biological research ni CBR topic 2010's in July 2012 the White House issued its guiding document on the National biosurveillance strategy topic current status since biological warfare agents are often etiologic agents for naturally occurring diseases the current military bio defense research effort provides substantive benefits for civilian populations as well products currently being produced or under development through military research include vaccines to prevent tularemia Q fever Rift Valley fever venezuelan equine encephalitis eastern and western equine encephalitis chikungunya fever argentine hemorrhagic fever the botulinum toxicosis and anthrax antitoxins for diseases such as botulism human immune globulin preparations passive antibody protection against various bacteria and viruses and antiviral drugs against multiple viral agents some vaccines also have applicability for diseases of domestic animals eg Rift Valley fever and venezuelan equine encephalitis in addition vaccines are provided to persons who may be occupationally exposed to such agents eg laboratory workers entomologists and veterinary personnel throughout government industry and academia say MRI ID also provides diagnostic and epidemiological support to federal state and local agencies and foreign governments examples of assistance rendered to civilian health efforts by the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command USA MRMC include the massive immunization program instituted during the Venezuelan equine encephalitis outbreak in the Americas in 1971 the laboratory support provided to the US Public Health Service during the outbreak of Legionnaires disease in Philadelphia Pennsylvania in 1976 the management of patients suspected of having African viral hemorrhagic fever in Sweden during the 1980s international support during the outbreak of Rift Valley fever in Mauritania in 1989 assistance with the outbreak of Ebola infections among monkeys imported to Reston Virginia in 1990 and epidemiological and diagnostic support to the World Health Organization Centers for Disease Control and Prevention field team that studied the Ebola outbreak in Zaire in 1995 the current research effort combines new technological advances such as genetic engineering and molecular modeling applying them toward development of prevention and treatment of diseases of military significance the program is conducted in compliance with requirements set forth by the US Food and Drug Administration US Public Health Service Nuclear Regulatory Commission US Department of Agriculture Occupational Safety and Health Administration and biological weapons convention even though the u.s. stopped all offensive biological warfare research in 1969 US officials have continued to believe that its biological defense research program must remain strong in view of evidence that some countries are not complying with the biological weapons convention the difficulty of verifying compliance with the convention the potential use of biological warfare by terrorists the increased possibility of new threat agents based on advances in biotechnology and the belief that a strong defense serves as a deterrent while some of the military's biological defense programs remain classified based on worldwide threats and in certainties the medical biological defense research program as in classified and is widely considered to be an invaluable resource for the country | wikipedia tts | UCrpY3RRy905oE3SERqJTmBw | 2019-01-13 | Creative Commons Attribution

bRv_TLG2f8s | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRv_TLG2f8s | living in a hotel | Quarantine Diaries | [Music] [Applause] [Music] hey what's up everyone welcome back to another vlog I met them weird singular no because the Sun is like beating down but I wanted to film an intro I'm like on my way to work right now I'm wearing like regular clothes because we change into our scrubs I think I mentioned that in one of the vlogs but I'm actually staying at a hotel for two weeks because I'm taking advantage of the health care hotels for health care workers and I'll show you guys a little bit of that experience later on in the vlogs I wanted to intro for those of you who don't know me my name is Jasmine I'm gonna leave my socials here if you don't already follow them and I'll see you guys later on after the show and this is what I wear let's have the thank-you meal for breakfast um can I get the McGriddle what kind of jig does it come with two creams and one sugar dude they changed it thank you dude with the heart it's actually like a full-on meal wait okay it comes with a hash room okay let me just literally show you tons of the hash brown the coffee and then a fricken McGriddle you [Music] [Applause] [Music] these clothes really aren't dirty I just these are the clothes I change into and out of when I go in out of work not really [Music] so does not have any breakfast so they have these water bottles full of ours but usually they have a breakfast today but they still have these out so I'm gonna go drink look at this one but yeah I'm gonna drink the camel to calm me down [Music] so I'm showered I ate my breakfast but I got perfect tell me what it's about 8:10 right now oh my gosh my dog was always make me feel like though last few days I worked and today I wasn't as bad as yesterday yesterday was really crazy I wanted you to story time on it but I want to look better so we're gonna tell that story Taiwan I'm actually dressed up but my eyes are like looking like this because I'm so tired I didn't even sleep at much because it with my sister's birthday yesterday we were like not really celebrating what we were just trying to gather the family and eat together but I went straight here and I slept until like maybe 12 flirty and then I drove over at home and then I ate with them and then I slept and then we blew up candles and cake and everything so that was oh I think one of my videos is going up today so that should be fun video I don't know which one it is i schedule all these in advance so what I really don't have any idea which ones grow up what they're just know which ones I I've already put up but anyway yeah I'll talk a little bit more about everything that's been going on and I want to give like a little bit of a tour so I think I wanted to do that either later on in this vlog I'm just way too tired to get it right now to show you around it's really like kind of messy I'm not gonna lie I haven't been cleaning but I bought a bunch of snacks cuz I'm working three days in a row after tomorrow so I my schedule kind of sucks I've had two days I have one day off then I'm back on Bertie honestly if I wasn't like young and still functional that would like kill me so I don't know how like people who are older nurses do it but doing two then one off and then three is really tiring and it sucks so we really have like two days off of then I have to MCC but at least that's like only half a day and then it's not really labor intensive obviously it's just class or work and then I'm back on right after my teen CC and I work another two days in a row and then I checked out of here so if you like a little whole lowdown in an intro video which you'll probably go to sleep now cuz my eyes are getting puffy and puffier so I'll see you guys later okay [Applause] so here's a little overview of everything so there's a little sitting area sleeping area and then here's the kitchen so we're gonna start off here at the door so they have this a little kitchenette area it's actually pretty cute they have like reasonable things in these areas but I haven't even touched it because of all the like drums and stuff I usually leave my garbage over here so I can throw it out when I'm on the way out and they give you these I haven't really used those but you can get hot coffee and tea at like 6:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. then they have this little sink and then these drawers have more utensils that I have not used at all but there's always optimum using this is mine that's not mine and there's a $5 water here's the oh I forgot to mention I also I don't know but I also sanitize everything with that Lysol over there okay so before anyone comes out me for not like touching everything without cleaning it that's why they have this little kitchen area I have not cooked here I just meal prepped and I'll show you all my meal prep later they have a freezer area which I have not used but it is convenient that they give you a little ice packets this is what I have it's really not much I have white cloth for after work I have a bunch of granola bars I don't know like store some of them in here I have my meal prep boxes to apples that I got from the free breakfast they have some water they have this water container but I just bought my own I have some more protein shout out to this protein company they gave me a bunch of free they gave me a bunch of protein and it's actually really really good so it might go get some more this one's the preemie chocolate fudge flavor as I also bought these Suja uber greens because I really like green juice it makes me feel healthy coming over here this is a really real room tour because of the fact that nothing is really all that clean this is my sitting area I was drinking my coffee just now from McDonald's we have some chips more coffee containers some tea that I usually drink before I go to sleep after my shift in the morning the room card and then I don't know why I keep all my filthy stuff over here that's where I'm keeping my dirty clothes my stuff I didn't even bother to unpack because they do have a closet area but I haven't been using it I'm going to turn on the light so that you can see a little bit better okay I don't know if you can see it a little bit better that might be better than before but they what's really great about this is for right Jeff they have like really really really good blackout curtains so that when I'm sleeping I don't really see a lot of them a lot of Sun and I have really good room placement which is actually nice that my room was the one that's like further down away from the Sun so yeah they also have at this desk area I haven't really been sitting there but I did sanitize that in case I did want to sit there I think have this TV that you can actually hook up to your laptop and watch TV we watch a bunch of sets on here and I actually bought like a little what's it called strobe light things so I can feel like I'm at EDC or something this is my bed by about a super unmade because of the fact that I never get the what's it called the room room tourists know the housekeeping because of the fact that I don't want to expose more people to germs and I just also don't feel comfortable having someone go through my stuff I've never really utilized housekeeping services in general I also I tell who's still here with this back so I actually brought my own towels and here's me so so from here the butt area you turn over here and I like how the sink is outside of the actual bathroom so that I can just kind of close this and I've been using my own towels because of the fact that I don't like using their towels it just makes me feel more comfortable at ease on my own so they had a bunch of towels up there but the only towels I user don't wants to put here I don't like to use them for my actual shower I just use this cover the bottom so that I put my toothbrush and all my toiletries over there don't really think there's anything down here and I don't know if I actually senses that's an idea but it opened it up the bathroom it's just a standard bathroom so I'm not going to show you much of that because to be honest it's kind of gross and I'm not there I don't really want to show you but they also have this little area for your gonna store your clothes and then they also have a laundry service but I don't think I need laundry service because I'm not really wearing too much clothes other than extra pillows and I don't use irons because I no longer have to iron my uniform and then we can close this and yeah that's pretty much it for the room tour so that area TV area I think this is worse than most of my time you had the option to open both these windows but most of the time mine are closed just because of night shift and all of that jazz kitchen area really really cute and oh let me talk a little bit more look at my Crocs are not actual Crocs so you guys I never even got the Crocs that they offered to healthcare workers I swear to scam because I try to like every single day for like two weeks and I never got it so that kind of sucks so what I did is I went to Daiso and I have like he's knockoff Crocs and I look pretty similar and I like them a lot and I see want to get real products but yeah it works is you can book the free hotels I'm gonna show the link over here I could still find it for health care workers and it has all the instructions there as to how to book it and I'll show you guys that probably later on but basically just call them and you let them know what possible you work at and you can actually book at any of not any hotel even both basically in any city that's close by to your facility I chose the closest long-stay hotel and it's actually really really nice and I believe it's funded by the government it is a two week stay at a hotel and because the fact that I worked the hospital and I feel like for the thing you don't know I lived with like seven people I think I mentioned this in the last video I lived with my parents my grandparents my siblings so I don't really like spending so much I don't like going straight from work to home because I feel like I'm have all these germs and like my grandparents are over the age of 75 and that poses a big risk and seeing all these cases now I just would rather play it safe and shower here then go home eventually later so I do recommend this if you are living with a lot of people and you feel my boy might be a little safer it is only for two weeks so the thing was the search is projected to be around this time which is why I booked it for now and I'm also gonna be working like five shifts in the next few days so I saw one of my friends do this and he essentially just showers here and goes home and it's actually a really good place to sleep because the blackout curtains and times with some people at home it's hard for me to sleep so it's actually really really nice it makes me think that we should actually move out because it's nicer to be able to have your own space the only downside is there is kind of a few people that are here because of the fact that it's a long extended stay and these people are pretty like close in proximity I kind of wish the hotel had done a better job of spreading people out but I guess that's just like doctor protocol I kind of asked who was staying here just out of curiosity and they were like most people are other health care workers and families who don't have the thought that means the ability to like their living situations got changed so that's pretty much that but yeah that's pretty much the situation right now I'm gonna be here until the end of the first week of May I think so go to my oath the day that I haven't checked out and I have a pretty hefty schedule so that should be a fun time but you have right now go get food you think and then I think and then since I know how it worked tonight I'm gonna head home probably later on today hope you guys are staying safe and are able to sustain the quarantine how are you guys feeling about them opening back up a bunch of things soon like phase one I was really against it at first because I was thinking like well they can do that they know our numbers are gonna automatically jump but what do you think about it you can't live in this kind of fear forever I just think that a lot of things are gonna be changing for example one of the gyms have emailed us saying what their phase 1 was gonna be like and let me just read some of the things that I had read from them so this is the proposed reopening protocol for this place is a group training that I had went to only like one time but it's called the twelve and these are just some of the protocols that they have for this gym select for example physical distancing the River Jays Club and class capacity so essentially they're Smalling the small inning small inning making the group smaller so that we're able to maintain social distancing even when we're working out they should also be I think it's crazy because one of the things is health decoration upon entry to all studios so checking temperatures still even when the club is open so that's obviously not going to end you have to bring your own towel no longer have towel services which at my personal version of 24 they got rid of that service a long time ago which I guess even though I was a little bit irritated that they did that it was actually a good thing because sanitation wise contact with check-in and transactions you got to wash your hand entering and exiting the facility and then they're only in a different you know high-fiving and personal contact during workout I think that's the hardest part what are the things with this area specific the workout classes are geared towards group so you rotate between 12 stations so now I don't know how exactly that's gonna work because you're reusing the equipment other people use so I don't know if they're gonna change their workout and I'm not they're gonna what does the equipment while everything out but that's just some things that I thought was interesting so it's crazy to see how not just gems but also I wonder what's gonna change in terms of obviously like the hotel didn't really changed much other than they closed the pool and closed the fitness facilities it just kind of sucks because I kind of wish I could have used their fitness facilities I don't feel like one who will use them but other than that that's pretty much it but yeah that's pretty much it I don't know if I mentioned this earlier but it's kind of crazy how the world is gonna change after this I think someone with mentioning the other day that we're probably never gonna be able to walk into a hospital without a mask again and I don't know how long we're gonna be doing the fever checks I don't know if that's gonna soon become like the way we treat the flu I don't really know but I'm trying to keep up with the news so that we can figure out what is going to be our phrase one but yeah that's pretty much gonna be it for this vlog I hope you guys are staying safe and healthy and I know this is like a tough time I know we're getting a lot of cases of anxiety coming into the emergency room coming in thinking that they have chest pain and I think it's really hard for everyone to be cooped up and just the fact that nothing's really known so I hope you guys are all staying safe and healthy and I'll see you guys in the next vlog oh boy so I'll see you guys in the next vlog and till then stay safe that's me stay safe and stay positive now alex is here hey open it yeah oh this is so cute this is just whatever want your bigness is so I think it's just a plate but oh wow and then so this is Lau Lau so you got to open it mm-hmm what's the other one this is so fancy fancy tell her why and that is so cute you can play oh damn look at that support your

cool I'm going to cue up the the audio the visual guy yeah there i am so yes thank you for having me Brenda thank you for bringing me in Thank You Emily Carr for hosting this event I'm really excited to be sharing my work with you around the reconciliation conferences here in Vancouver I'm really proud to be an emily carr graduate i graduated in 2002 and i was thinking about this today all my friends all the staff all the instructors that I've had here you've helped me become Who I am today and I really want to thank you for that so Emily Carr has probably been the best experience of my life and its it's stuck with me forever and you're part of my family so thank you for having me back so i'm going to show you my pretty much my entire body work over the past 11 years we've got an hour to get through it also i might blast through some of the earlier stuff and then focus on some of the newer stuff i've been working on most recently but basically alder start off and tell a little story about myself and pop cultural influences basically my work is very autobiographical nature and it started off by exploring who i am as a liquid top person and who i am as a child of pop culture growing up in that the pinnacle of 80s pop culture and really trying to discover who I was and when I was in my final year here at Emily Carr I was really trying to challenge the stereotype of what it was like to be to be an indigenous person and to be in a digits artists working in this super strong discourse here in Vancouver around North West Coast art and the work that I was doing at the time I didn't really feel like it really challenged my own self perception of really making something uniquely my own and I just started one day just thinking about my work and thinking about young sunny like why I got involved are in the first place and thinking about how you select comic books and how television and movies and radio and media influence me at the child and it really started that to peek in my mind about this one specific story that I had when I was going to school in Grade three I moved into Vancouver with my mother and I was going to a school there of course of coz a kid and my teacher the time was was was teaching the class teaching me about my own people he was teaching me about the Kwok walk you walk people back ben refers to the kwakiutl and I don't know maybe this didn't dawn on me maybe my mom can answer the questions later on about why Sonny didn't know he was an Indian but but I didn't know and it was funny because the teacher was talking about these people in the past tense these people used to live in this area where I spent my summers these people ate the food that I ate on daily basis salmon hooligans all that stuff and these people made this iconic artwork at the time I mom was married to a carver Jerry Smith an artist north west coast artist and he's making this work and so I started drawing all his connections I'm like I spent my summer there I eat that food it's the stuff that Jerry makes like what is this all about and I remember running home and my mum probably was lying on the couch after a long day's hard work I came in kicked off my shoes looking for my mom my mom I got this cool stuff to tell you i got the school stuff to tell you and I told her about all this stuff I learned about these people in the past there are work their food the the same food that we do we live in the area where weeds we spend our summers they just stuff they make is what Jerry makes and she just look up me and says well that's who you are so I'm going to ask you later why didn't go and so basically i took that story in that that kind of time frame in my life and thought about how media and pop culture influenced me and they came up with a series called the challenging traditional series and this was really just about exploring who I was as a liquid rock walk walk walk person but also being a child of pop culture and what influenced me what influenced me was mass media advertising comic books movies so from the challenge of tradition series we got you know the iconic guys of spider-man and Hulk Mickey Mouse another Hulk and raz Pez and that really kind of spurred on this kind of creative notion to start understanding who I was as an individual in this world and I'm going to jump ahead a number of years to 2006 when I made the breakfast series and this was done for a show my first solo exhibit in Vancouver called sunny IC was defined by the Indian act a little tongue-in-cheek title and again I just started thinking about you know my childhood my past how I was just enveloped in this notion of pop culture where pop culture and media and advertising was bombarding me on a daily basis by this stuff by these toys eat this food and I started really thinking about it about this this becomes my my heritage my traditional heritage this is what makes up me as an individual this media that we live in influences my life as much as my traditional culture does and so I made the breakfast series that kind of reflect a number of different issues that i was i was thinking about at a time and when i when i made this work and pretty much the work that I was doing at the time and work that I do now I make it from a very kind of just a quick response to an up to a thought that I've had in my head I I bring the concept into my work at a later time and so the concept for this work came a little bit later but this is really just kind of exploring the notion of who I was for a very humorous way what I discovered when I started thinking about this in a humorous way and then inserting issues of colonization loss of food loss of land resources and loss of identity I was able to approach it in such a way that I was introducing humor to the conversation where there's when was kind of when I first started going to Emily Carr and exploring my culture through the diverse community that was here a lot of the artists that i was looking at in referencing we're from a very angry indian discourse and for me that was I wasn't really i didn't really felt the knee or the the understanding that i that i had to hold on to that anger because i wasn't really directed directly influenced by the notions that they were getting at but I understood their reasoning as why they were angry and why they were ranting and why they were parading through their work very powerfully but I didn't feel I had the right to be that angry so I felt that humor was the best way to get people involved into the issues and just oh sorry run one-half another slide on her and but just you know talking about this piece is you know we got lucky beads which is kind of exploring this notion of stereotype in Manhattan was sold for a handful of shiny beads to the Indians you know being funny co-op walkthrough of Bannack pops kwok walk you up treaty flakes potlatch Sam and crisp potlatch sorry quick walkie box and lips and what I found interesting over the years is what I've really found interesting about my work in general and how people approach it is that I have a base understanding of what why what my work is but people always bring something unique and interesting to the conversation no matter where they're from so I really appreciate when people come up to me and say you know Sonny you know you made this work in 2006 but it's resonating to me today in 2013 about the loss of the salmon coming into the Fraser River so I just I just I just like how this work has been able to transcend over the years and influence a lot of people this is coke Salish i did in 2006 as well for my show at the belkin satellite gallery and i want to start off by thanking the Coast Salish people for for allowing me to live in their territory and this is what this piece was really was really made for was the payment to pay respect to the coast salish nations in vancouver for allowing all of us through colonization to live in their traditional territories and they came up with the idea for the piece i think it was in 2003 when Vancouver was awarded the 2010 Winter Games what I found interesting was that the games were being marketed as Canada the world coming to Canada coming to vancouver british columbia canada but they weren't really honoring or recognizing the traditional territories of the First Nations people that were here and they're thinking about it in the terms of pop culture and media and advertising and how I've been influenced by that I made this piece that kind of subvert that notion of the Welcome of the people and then going on through this piece and presenting it in various formats what I found interesting and even with the cereal boxes is that it became invisible the people in a way that this image became invisible to people which I found really interesting because as an artist you don't want to be invisible you want people to see you working with people I know who you are and have a conversation with you and it kind of came out of this this this notion of the invisible notion behind these works came out of a quick little anecdote that I was an interaction i was having with a security guard at the Museum of Anthropology he was walking me down to the area where it's going to be giving a presentation and he said hey Sonny I really love your work it's really smart it's really funny but can you do me a favor and I'm like oh okay security card I'll do you a favor and he's like yeah can you can you just make some kind of like little panel some little text information about this piece because I'm really tired of all these tourists coming up and going where's the coke machine where's the hot dog cart I went up to the coke sign there's no Coke machine there's no there's no cafeteria it's always interesting how people this kind of glanced over this stuff because it does mirror and mimic the peace and I'm appropriating so perfectly that people just don't recognize it another anecdote from from this specific piece I don't know if she's in the room penny are you in the room hey yeah she she was at the world urban form with her partner Tim a couple years ago where we did this piece really large when in 2007 or 2006 so when you walked out of the forum you were seeing this giant Kosala shine coca-cola sign and you were acknowledging that your Coast Salish territory and entering back into it and she looked up it and I heard this story from her second hit and she look up this sign and she got mad and she was telling me Sonny I got so mad I was getting mad tim was like certainly a little bit embarrassed and he's like you know can you just calm down a bit and then take a look at the sign just take it in for a second and she's looked at it and she goes oh this is I potlatch version one again from 2006 for my first solo show it's 5,000 ancestors in your pocket and again like I really wanted to approach my work from this this area of humor and its really kind of talked about and not even worth it was just me being fun I was just having a lot of fun with this work and this this was very kind of at an early stage in my career and I was just really exploring my my my career and the work that I wanted to make for me I was really starting to explore this notion of totemic representation what makes up our clan base structure from a traditional standpoint you know it's the Raven the bear the sand and the eagle whatever it may be but in our today's modern technology based society we don't really recognize that we are the ipod clan the blackberry clan the Android plan and this really came about from having an observation on the bus one day I don't know where I was going but I was just on the bus standing there and I watched these two people come on the bus at the height of ipods fame and we really started taking off and they had their little white earbuds in and they are scrolling through their list of songs they sat down next to each other they didn't interact with each other at all I'm not too sure if they knew each other or not but I found it really interesting to that observation that they were connected even though they were ignoring each other and that's essentially what Steve Jobs is really trying to do with this piece is like we're trying to connect the world to this technology but what I've noticed and what a lot of people have noticed over the years is that this technology really kind of puts us on our own little bubble we're constantly like this and even even more so today you know we're always constant like this on our phone ignoring everything around has put our ear buds in and we just ignore the world and so that's why I can I started thinking about this theory of you know this becomes our new personal totems we are the ipod plan the blackberry clan and all kind of stuff this is some more work from this series this is I hamed's I apology go in the center and I home at the dancer over on the side and through that through these pieces with that kind of notion in mind about these technologies as new personal totems I started thinking about what would a traditional dancer do in the future to ready himself for a potlatch and I started kind of painted these imageries of vomits a dancer and other side's embracing this notion of technology to ready themselves for pie latch or maybe even in the future we're going to have potlatches in our own heads you know we're going to be just plugged into these machines and we're just going to plug in our ear buds and we're going to dance in a room maybe it's going to be virtual who knows that's what as this really kind of stipulating with these pieces and painting myself in the last two as the self-portrait was me really kind of situating myself in the middle of this kind of technology culture and I am such a techno person I love collecting all these gadgets and I am super immersed in this technology and it's been interesting because over the past probably the past month if anyone follows me on Facebook you know I've removed everything and I'm trying to get myself off this stuff but it's so hard because I'm living a Montreal now and it's you know it's it's a really good tool to be connected to the people that you love and you care about especially when you have such great distances between you so it's interesting to find a balance between being on the grid and wanting to be off the grid this is the ipod for version two it's actually called ten thousand ancestors in your pocket and this was done in 2009 for a show called continuum at billary gallery downtown and they approached me and they said you know we're having a show called continuum and we're really trying to approach traditional northwest coast artists who are working in traditional mindsets and we want to kind of help them think outside box we recognize that you are thinking completely outside the box with your work and we just want you to be in the show as an inspiration to them and it was a really really great show to be in because it also challenged me to think about my work in a very different scale this piece is three foot by six foot I actually painted this in a 5 foot by 4 foot room it was and I lost my studio one point and I moved back into my I moved my studio back into my house and it was just like essentially a walk-in closet so I was able only able to paint this thing or down and I wasn't really two-step able to step back and look at it but is this is one of the pieces that I really kind of see myself embracing this notion of abstraction through my work and I'm going to talk a bit more about abstraction later on but this is a very kind of abstract piece for me at the time I was painting some drums and i'm going to show you those in a minute and they they were fairly and my work is fairly abstract in terms of North West Coast standards but I was still kind of framing a lot of my stuff even when you think about the automata pieces I was still kind of framing it in a very kind of narrative way I was thinking about my my work in a very traditional narrative by up you know taking stories from my culture and taking appropriate from the general pop culture and then reforming it into my own stories so it was very kind of narrative based in story based and so this piece allowed me to actually think outside that that box and really start to think about abstraction in my work and this is one of the first pieces that I did where I was using the headphone cord to really break up the space and to create a different layer of dynamics throughout the paintings and throughout the works the potlatch man i'm going to talk a bit about that from 1884 to 1951 it was illegal in Canada under the Indian Act which is still in that today for my family to practice our traditional cultures for 67 years was illegal for us to practice to sing to dance to have potlatches doing so meant to be thrown in jail you could be fined or both commonly regalia masks dancewear were confiscated by the Canadian government and then sold off to various collections around the world and this piece is an installation of 67 copper cups the grande sized it was funny to make this piece and to think about it because I had these fabricated here in Vancouver and just thinking about it and as you know it's talking to the company was there was making these pieces for me and I brought him isla grande thighs Starbucks cup paper cup and I plopped it in the counter and I said I want to make this in copper and he says why you're gonna burn your face off when you have a coffee I said no it's not it's not the Drake it's art and he says oh okay and he kills right out the ticket he probably is funny because it's like I'm so yeah so I have 67 copper cups installed on this kind of on a Hudson's Bay blanket and this kind of discarded pattern and it came out about an exploration of the potlatch ban in Canada lasted 67 years and thinking about traditional notions of wealth from my people and the copper shield was the epitome of a family's wealth or Chiefs wealth and this piece thing about copper and thinking about how it juxtaposed our Western society where Paula Josiah T hoards wealth keeps wealth to give it all the way at these big events where our Western society what we're all living in right now we hoard wealth we keep wealth to buy inanimate objects to buy condos to buy cars buy ipods to save it and then that wealth either gets transferred to someone in their family or it just disappears when we die and so it's a dramatic difference between how a polish society sees their wealth and how art our Western society sees the wealth and this notion of discarding really came up and the reason I use the coffee cup because I recognized when people especially in Vancouver because there's such a strong large coffee consumption culture here that people walk on the streets with these cups no matter the size no matter what's in them these paper white cups they're filled with you know there could be a two dollar americano or just a quick coffee but more often that it's a six or seven eight dollar latte right we're able to take these cups and we're able to walk around town showing our wealth subconsciously you know walking around like this this is our wealth I'm sipping on it but when you're finished is empty the cup is worthless to you and becomes garbage it becomes recycling so we just toss it away so it's interesting to see how we do that in our society where we waste everything but our traditional polish society doesn't waste a lot of things we see our wealth in a dramatically different way and for me the discarding pile of this cups came about from that notion of how Canada over the sentence colonization has really treated the integer society how they have just discarded my people discarded your people and just tossed our cultural way through this banning through this band and the piece really came about from hearing a story I k-member who's telling this story I think it was someone in my family they're talking about a chief at a potlatch and commonly what would happen at a potlatch is the Chiefs would all get together after a Polish and essentially have a pissing contest it's called boasting say both really boast and they get around they sit around the fire and they you know they sing these little songs and they chant and we boast and they say hey I had a potlatch last year and I gave away a bunch of stuff and this is how rich I am and they break off a piece of their copper no matter how big depending how big they wanted to seem how much their wealth was they can break off a piece of copper of their copper and then they would offer it to the host chief if the host chief recognized that his well for his polish what he gave away because that's the essence of the Polish the more you give away the wealthier waar if he recognized that he gave more away he would have to break off a smaller piece or he would break up a bigger piece to indicate that he gave away less in the background there was this one chief he was just thinking about this watching these two guys boasts and he just had this epiphany I i gay I had a potlatch a couple years ago and I gave away so much stuff I gave away all my wealth and it's represented to you and this copper shields I'm going to prove my wealth to you right now by destroying my copper and he threw it in the ocean he said I don't need my wealth anymore because it's just material stuff that's it and so essentially that's that's how i came to to install these cups and this discarded pile to draw connections to that traditional story that I heard and to how Canada has it's indigenous population over the times of colonization this is the fourth install that I've done with it and this is most recently in sac ahan which is the big indigenous exhibit at the National calorie national gallery that happened this summer in Ottawa it was 83 indigenous artists from all over the world which was which was an amazing experience I went down for the opening and I met other white Indians from all over the world I was blown away I'm like oh my god you're native to and you're from Sweden this is cool so I installed it for for the installation there and it was really powerful it's really common for him i don't i don't know if anyone got down to go see it or not but it was installed kind of in the first started off on the top floor so if he walked into the top floor this is the first time he'd walk into and she greeted by my installation of cups along the wall on the side was natty and meijer that beaded Indian Act and on the other wall facing natiahs piece and facing my pieces Lawrence Paul's shotgun which he used to shoot the Indian app so it was a very very conference room anyways when i install this work i really want to try and install it in a new configuration every time just to kind of challenge myself because every time i installed it a couple times the exact same way but i challenged myself to try and make it make these this discarded pile look like a discard pile it's very hard to do anyways for this for this installation i discarded it made this big discard pile in the center i'm going to use this fancy laser pointer right now and then these four guys right here what i did for this installation as i was paying respect to the four founding members of the idle no more movement before women who stepped up to engage canada to step up and see past the oppression that the canadian government was putting everybody through to challenge everybody in canada to step up and fight for the environment not just for indigenous peoples but the fight for the environment fight for canada's fabric as a whole so i installed these four cups that greek see when you walk in to pay respect to those four women who started that movement over the course of the couple the last couple months you know there's been news and stuff that the animal movement and has not been dead it's gone the funny thing is is when people say that I always like to correct him by saying you know the movement may be dead this particular movement may be dead but the the indigenous resistance movement is never going to go away we're going to be fighting for a very long time till we get the recognization from the Canadian government that treat us like equal people because under the government I'm not an equal person and that's really sad I'm going to talk more about that later this is the silence series again dealing with the potlatch man and the Indian Act I started off with the top one right there that was silence number one and i was just trying to think about because i was painting so many drums at the time trying to really think about challenging my work and challenging my own perceptions of the work that I was doing and it's even challenging the notion of the drum because these drums for me were a canvas it was a surface for me to paint on they get collected by people by institutions nna be hung on walls and they weren't really used for their intended purpose of the drum beat and producing ceremony producing culture so i challenge my notions of that by stacking them up and referencing the Hudson's Bay blankets the Hudson's Bay blankets were used during potlatches they were given away they were prized for their warmth and value they were given away to people as a gift because when you do if you do attend apology do walk away with something everyone who goes through polish walks away with a gift because that's the answer essence of the Polish so I started stocking these drums on the floor painting them to look like Hudson's Bay blankets and painting the point lines on them to indicate the the worth of these people through these point lines traditionally that the point lines on the blankets reference 11 point line equals 14 so if you go into the hudson's bay trading post back in the day you bring in for beaver furs you get 14 point blanket and I stack them up to reference the potlatch giveaway because I had seen a number of photographs and even at the Museum of Civilization as it used to be called in got no they have the northwest coast longhouse procession on the ground floor and there's a bock bock Ewok house and as soon as you walk in you see all these artifacts that are going to be given away at a potlatch and there's this huge wall of Hudson's Bay blankets that were two stacked up and I've seen these photographs of just hundreds and thousands of babbling is to stack up to be given away apologies so this is what this these pieces specifically reference so number one two and three across the top this one down here and the bottom corner is called silence the Harbinger and to me I wanted to also reference this piece of how these blankets were used to spread smallpox and tuberculosis amongst the first peoples through Canada's history and these this is a little known fact and this is stuff that I that I discovered through my education through Emily card even through my self education after I have left here that there's a lot of hidden history in Canada that we don't learn about at various levels of our scholastic careers and so I really wanted to bring this story to the forefront to tell people that these blankets were used to enact genocide in Canada but we don't talk about so if you were to peel this is called the Harbinger to indicate that this this blanket is coming to get you and the red line to me references the the smallpox infection if you were to peel off every drum layer you'd see this the smallpox Oh Boyd continue on to every every drum the one in the center is on number five it's it's one of two or three that I've that I did to kind of just abstract the the Hudson Bay iconography even further then the one on the very bottom there I can't remember what I called that one but I painted that one for a good friend of mine he's a performance artist his name is Terence cool a very strong artist he's Blackfoot his from Calgary Alberta he contacted me one day and he told me these and this is just when I was just moving out to Montreal and he said I'm going to be going out to Val d'Or to do a residency just outside much for all and I want I want you to paint me a drum I want to use your drum in a ceremony that I'm doing and to me that I was really honored to tarent to think about me in that way because my drum is normally don't get played you know they're treated as works of art and they get hung in a wall which is great but they never get used and so I was really honored the Terrance asked me to do that and instead of doing a bit of research into the Hudson's Bay blanket at that time and it discovered that there was a blanket that was issued to I don't remember what for what reason but it was issued in the rural Royal colors to pay respect to the Queen and at that same time Prince Charles was adopted into Terrence's Blackfoot community and so I painted it in the royal purple colors with these kind of abstract to avoids breaking up the space and the four-point lines and tearing sees it in his performance heated up giving it to his father who was a traditional powwow dancer which again was another just great hit to to me that these things were being played and being honored and being used and Terence is telling me a while back when I ran into him he said no my dad I gave him the drum he loves it but he's a little bit embarrassed to bring it out because he goes to these powwows and there's all these other guys with this little chump drums and Terence were stumped Trump drums and he brings out this Cadillac of drums and he starts playing so it's interesting this is silence the hidden again stacked up drums and these ones isn't it this one is an insulation of 67 stack drums again to reference the Polish man in Canada this one I paid a tone-on-tone so the kind of whitish color you're seeing here that's actually skin tone paint and this is actually the skin so I have this skin producing itself as the negative space of the of the ovoids in the abstract form lines from the northwest coast I installed them back into the corner because I wanted to indicate that the people were were back into a corner through colonization over the years and even still so today and I painted them with skin tone so I want to indicate that this is hidden notion of of the hidden history in Canada and I didn't point it I didn't paint any point lines on these drums because I wanted to indicate that the government continues to consider us worthless in terms of the eyes of the colonizer to juxtapose that this is silenced the hidden and it had these silent the burnings sorry I had these facing offices at the equinox gallery here in Vancouver and have these facing off against each other so this one was in kind of almost the center of the room looking over at the other drums and these were stacked up and it's called silence the burning because this is one of the first pieces that I made to reference my family's history through colonization whereas before i was really referencing my personal history i started thinking about my own personal history and what made up my history and that's going back and doing research about my whole family i discovered that my great-great-grandfather chief Billy assu was a highly regarded chief on her mom north west coast and I started doing some research into his his his his iconography as a human being has made his way into my work a number of times and this one specifically references a story that I heard that my grandmother had told me about the around the same time I think it was just before the potlatch bust in 92 21 Bay where an Indian agent approached my great-great-grandfather chief Billy a su and said I know you're going to have a potlatch it's legal you're not allowed to do that so you got two options you can either continue on with your culture and you could produce your potlatch and we're going to come bust it we're going to come confiscate all your regalia we're going to find you and will probably throw you in jail or the nice guy that he was just give me all your stuff right now in a walk away I'll let you sit without for a second you said I'll come back and we'll talk about it somebody so chief Billy a soup went to his village went to his people and said this is what's been presented to me this is the ultimatum that I have you know I can we can give up a regalia and we could just go on other lies and we can kind of maybe try and keep our culture continued on their grounds or we can continue on the ground in their culture anyways we can have our polish we can have our celebration but we're going to get busted on and get thrown in jail we're all going to get finds you know what do you want me to do and the people said to him just give it up we don't need it it's just material we need you your inspiration I want you to stay around with that my great-great-grandfather drag dolls regalia down to the beach and eat birthday just destroyed it all I don't need it it says material like a meatball so that's silence the burning this is ellipses and Billina Chiefs this is the quick installation shot of the work and this was inspired this is my great great grandfather right here this was chief Billy I sue and these are the recordings that I found of him right here actually my mother found these right there my mother she she was working at the treaty office one day and she gets a call from somebody I don't remember who and he was just thumbing through this box of Records and it said free or trash and he found he founds us he finds his collection of Records and he thinks they're important they must be important will do look interesting he did a quick search on Google what's brought him to my mother through the treaty office that she works at and he called her up and said I found these records in a free of trashed and you know do you guys want them any my mom said yes bring him over and I ended up getting him from myself the digitized and to produce copies for my community and I started thinking about these records as a conceptual records of the potlatch ban itself I found it interesting that chief Billy assu was allowed to enter a recording studio to sing these songs for an ethnologist what was not allowed to leave that studio to sing those songs for himself before his kultura for his family and that's what ellipses this was in beat nation in 2012 here at the Vancouver Art Gallery and it's an installation of 137 copper records to indicate the the Indian Act in Canada and the Indian Act in Canada is I see it as apartheid and it is apartheid it segregates our society it says that you know at one point in Canada's history says you can't leave the reserve this is segregation and it is segregation and I think about it in a ways of you know how we as Canada have stepped up numerous times the fight oppression around the world but we continue to impress our own people you know we stepped up and said to South Africa apartheid is wrong but South Africa was looking at our playbook you know you know we stepped up to say some people Canadian government supports Israel but a lot of people support palestine in canada but they recognize that Israel has looked at our playbook and said oh this is good stuff this is oppression we can keep these people segregated and this is essentially what the Indian Act was designed to do and this is essentially with the potlatch family is designed to do so I installed this 137 copper disks and an inverted equalizer pattern to indicate the waveforms that i was listening to while i was thinking about this piece and the other piece i'm going to show you of how even though we've been oppressed or there is oppression in our society for 137 years our culture has continued on the ground to make we sustain a way of life and to sustain our culture from across Canada this is Billina Chiefs the complete band collection again at the Vancouver gallery nation in 2012 and these ones were 12 inch records 12-inch drums and 10 angstroms painted to look like spinning records and I group them all up into collections and again this one was installed on the opposite wall of ellipses installed in a the correct way up for an equaliser pattern to indicate that we are strong we are we are keeping on and 67 again references the potlatch band in canada and these are the individual collections the one on top your billing of chiefs that was the first one that I did this to give it a bit of a test to see how it was going to work in terms of the painting what I was going to do with it and then I started making all these little collections of these of these drums these sessions that as i was calling them and i was recognizing because one of my favorite bands the porcupine tree which my buddy Jeff got me into I don't he's in the room or not but they record all their other music in these sessions they just sit in this studio for how many days and they make all these these recordings of their work and i found the really inspirational disco they sit they lock themselves away and they just make all this work and so when I was making this work and I painted all these drums 67 drums in 20 days which is this nuts they because i was living in montreal and to get the drums made out here they were shipped across the country i have let them warm up because they got cold and then i had 20 days to paint them and then send them back out again so i just locked myself in my studio on these little painting sessions and that's how I ended up titling these works in his various different sessions so we got the raven recordings the sessions for lovers and fighters the Indian agent sessions and other underground hits the feast collection live from the latch the Medicine Woman ap's pays respect to the only woman singing on the recordings the Indian giver recordings and the undersea sessions and when I was painting these works and I was thinking about titles because as i was making these I was really trying to figure out even just in the the titles of specific sessions themselves I was trying to think about you know what am I going to call this this piece and general the series in general and I started thinking about it in terms of well you know what if my great-great-grandfather was like a big band player something or like got a rockabilly star and he was you know I had a really cool band what would it be called Billy and the Chiefs that sounds kind of fifties ish kind of 40s so this is billing the Chiefs this is the poster that I did for the Vancouver Art Gallery for their fundraising initiatives it's called live from the latch and it's presented to you in a copper shape to reference the Chiefs copper and you would break off a piece of your of your copper to be emitted into the into the potlatch and this is a piece for the strict law tour in 1921 the winter potlatch in village Island and this is the polisher was busted in 1921 so this is the famous potlatch bust from Alert Bay and its billing in Chiefs the headlining tour of banned by the canadian government strict law to 1921 featuring we must dance and I kind of in this in me being funny but you know there's this unwritten rule within the polity to the within a leak walk walk walk about people that it is within our fabric of being the being that we have to dance so we have former culture that we have to live our culture and as a little side note to that like I was playing my daughter who's 17 months just these drumming songs and she just sort of popping you know I don't know that's just the baby thing but does this see here just reach in and take that that traditional music and this be inspired by it was really really cool and it really kind of made me think about how we are through our polished Saudi ingrained in us to to dance and perform our culture anyways also featuring the Kwok sisters which is the plan words for two reasons the Kwok walk walk people but also there's a family from the Campbell River Cave madaria called the Kwok sisters and I should I show this piece than my grandmother and she's reading it he's got her glasses on and she gets the Kwok sisters and she just laughs her ass off it was just funny to see her do that also appearances by the war canoes and Hammett's and special guests you attend this there's door prizes names Hudson's Bay blankets feasts all ages and I did this on the guy sketched out first and brought it into my computer and digitize it and have it printed when I first finished it it was just like your standard prints so you didn't have all these kind of jagged edges and stuff but what I thought about is I really wanted to make it look like this is a found object from that era that could be seen in an anthropology museum and through the course of the past year the MOA has acquired it for their own collections and I believe it sits up and they're in there walk walk walk display cases right now which was pretty fun pretty fun recreating language and identity and this kind of started off through a series of paintings that I started in 2009 called the longhouse series and at first I was just really embracing this notion of abstraction that I was talking about earlier and I started thinking about it in terms of the abstraction of abstraction because I recognize that movements like the surrealist and the Cubist's we're looking at north west coast and indigenous cultures from all over the world and being inspired by it and using it for their own purposes to create their own artwork so I kind of turned a lens around on it I saw that they were looking at me and my culture and I started looking back at them in their culture and being inspired by and that's how I came up this kind of terminology called the abstraction of distraction the one on the bottom is called to avoid his language and my good friend Dana Warren who's now the curator of the urban shaman gallery and Winnipeg came by the studio one day to take a look at what I was working on and talk about the show that we're gonna be doing together and the first thing she said and I never had this never really dawned on me until she said it but she walked in and she saw this painting at this stage and it was finished and she said that's cool that looks like graffiti and I said yeah you know that does that's interesting I never thought about that before but you're right it does look like they're feeding and so I started thinking about in terms of graffiti as a language and graffiti as a culture itself and started playing with all these different layers levels within a surface itself and started thinking about language and the recreational language and how my culture is language is only 13 fluent speakers left out of a thousand people in our nation all together all three nations together is about a thousand people and there's only 13 of 14 fluent speakers left alive and they're pretty much all elders so any point in time you know we can lose that language fully and so I started thinking about you know what would happen if we weren't colonized where would of our culture had gone where would have had it developed to because there's always this conception or misconception or stereotype that indigenous cultures in North America didn't have a written form of communication but I started thinking I can read totem pole I could read that mask I can tell you what that mask is I can tell you what the totem pole says it is a language to me and so I started thinking about it in terms of language and so that's why i call the top one dialect in the top one here is called phonology and this one I was really and at this time when I painted this the specific series of work and these specific bodies of work I was acting very intuitively when I was painting I was just I had these big over templates and let's plop them down trace them out and then fill them in with the color and then specifically for phonology I kind of laid out these big spaces in these big shapes and then kind of the other kind of Wiggly bits here I started being very intuitive with these brushstrokes and I just I didn't have any layout at all I just went the town sort of painting these lines and I was very conscious of thinking about when I painted these lines of Asian character writing in a different hieroglyphics and I kind of started stipulating in my mind that I think that the ovoid patterns themselves could have developed into a form of written communication to communicate and to be written communication let much like character writing the piece on the bottom is called spawned that one was painted too as a response to the 2009 Sakai run that was going into the Fraser River the government scientists at a time we're predicting 16 million salmon Sakai would be coming back into the river to spawn but through some twist of fates science of nature 1.6 million stock i returned to the river which was a dramatic loss it made me it made my heart sink because this is a food source from from my people but not only my people but all north west coast people's depend heavily on the salmon and I started really hit me that I really I really wanted to to think about this and I painted this painting called spawn and spawn salmon colors but the year later in 2010 they returned they were predicting the government scientists were predicting 1.6 million sockeye would come back to the Fraser River that's 16 million showed up so maybe they got the papers wrong that year I don't really know my uncle's talk about it like the the scientists really don't know anything about the salmon but so yeah anyways 16 million sockeye came back that year and everyone is all excited and happy and every one of my family and this is for me it's it's a bit of a contentious issue because I see that we are wiping out this species we are bringing them to near extinction levels and it's hard for me to say that because i spent my my my later teen lives as a fisherman i spent my life on a fishing boat and i see how the sockeye and the salmon have helped produce my culture and produce my family and make sure that we're living so it's very hard for me to criticize and and say extinction but i think it needs to be said so we know so we can try and figure out how to preserve it so this piece was painted in response to the return to indicate the salmon or come back but we need to be wary of it and not not over fish the population this one's called me on supper club with the hashtag and this one was painted in response and this was the last long house that I've done thus far I've been working on one in the studio I'm not work I finish a song I show it to you but this is the last one I've done thus far it's called neon supper club and it does pay respect to Vancouver's former title of being the neon capital of the world at one point there was more neon here than there wasn't in Las Vegas and I saw these photographs from Fred Hertzog of Vancouver and its heyday and I started seeing all these photographs of my grandparents coming down to the big city to practice these kind of new cultural traditions of going to the supper club so I've always photographs of my of my grandparents and aunts and uncles and the supper clubs is partaking in the kind of colonial society at the height of the potlatch man so what I found interesting was that my family and my grandparents weren't allowed to practice our traditional culture but they were allowed to practice the colonial culture and that's what this piece really references social media influences again there's my great-great-grandfather chief Billy a su and I forgot to put photos in here but I got the try on his blanket and it's at the Museum of Civilization and gap know my auntie Mitzi told me when I was going out there for something I don't member what it's going out there for might've been going out there for a jury or an art show or something and my aunt teammates he said to me well you know your your great-great-grandfather's rakaia is that the Museum of Man it's what she called it cuz that's what it was called at the time when she knew it and I said no I had no clue he said well I'll write you a letter and you could try not okay and so I took my letter I email the lady first and I said hey my name's Sonny assume I Gregory grandfather's were guy using the collection my intimates he gave me a letter I want to come try to it she's so sweet she's so cute she's 92 which is this nine-time person and she gave this letter and I went there and they brought out the regalia they brought out the blanket the choke up blanket they brought out the the front lip which has these amazing beautiful remind skins than the back and they brought out the dance a print and the leggings I was only allowed to try on the blanket because I probably break everything else because I'm so huge but I found out like my great-grandfather was actually a very very big man in stature as well anyways when I put this blanket on and it was funny because the the conservators at the Museum they're wearing the right loves and I'm just touching this thing with my hands and they're picking it up and they're looking at me they're looking at the blanket they're looking at me go are you sure it can are we actually allowed to put this on you I'm like yeah it's you got a letter it's on my hinting it's 92 come on you can do this and so they put it on my shoulders and it was just amazing like I i welled up I almost broke into tears because as soon as that blanket him my shoulders energy just circulated right down through me hit the floor and came back up and it was this amazing experience this inspired me to think about the work and to think about that traditional weaving we got the weaving the choke out style is more prominent in the northern North West Coast so the height of people use it shim-sham people on the team let people use it and it's a specific form of weaving to that to that specific area but through a series of wars marriages trades potlatches the choke at agron ography has woven its way down into the southern coasts but it is a it is an iconography or a piece of regalia that does denounce your status it does show your status and my great-great-grandfather chief bilious suit was was was high in status on the northwest coast he was widely respected by every every people's oliver north west coast there was a story I heard I need to confirm it but I heard that when he passed away in the late 60s that the Canadian government in the military fly by if I reserve to pay respect name because that's how respect that he was but not only our people but by the colonial government as well and so this notion of status and how the blanket came into my family the blanket came into my family and through an arranged political marriage between the Mongol Martin family manga Martin was a very important buck walk you up Carver northwest coast he has a couple pools in the total area and Stanley Park the big tall pole it's out by vani park that's his he's got poles in and Europe as well a highly respected cultural maker and a very important family and he approached my great-great-grandfather again recognizing the importance of my family and said we need to come together to preserve our culture we need to come together and marry the two families together but it was the political marriage there was no actual physical marriage involved but through that I call it a dowry because I don't know how else to describe it the Martin family gave my family they're chill cat regalia and that was a status symbol and a status update for my people and for my family and that's what inspired this series here called the Chilkat series and this is status update and I really wanted to try and think about it in terms of our modern society and how we utilize various modes of status within our society through social media you know we're able to you know I look at my great-great-grandfather who had this immense practice and this immense stature to him but here I am going on Facebook posting photos of my daughter and my food and so I really want to try and figure out how we go from that importance to that importance and this is what this series is really kind of exploring so this is the Chilkat series we got tweet blast digital native angry birds as i was playing angry birds like crazy so I just decided the paint of an eagle angry birds and trending these are the latest ones that I've done this is photobomb so I've got all these little guys popping up in photo bonding mahamutsa this is a de L'Amour i painted in response in support of the idle no more movement this is potlatch shades of grey I was actually going to try paint 50 different shades of grey but I got at six and I'm like I'm not going any further than 60 this is the selfie series and those last ones that I showed you in this series was done for my my first solo show in Montreal at a gallery color mirror this is the selfie series again trying to explore how we place importance on ourself through social media and there's this phenomenon called the selfie so you hold your phone like this and take a photo post on Instagram so we've got shameless selfie at the bottom selfie do you want to see my status card and selfie 2013 challenging the authority of preservation and consumption this is the longing series and that's my my stepfather Jack right there we were going through these piles of discarded cedar on a log home developments sites on my reserve and Campbell River looking for a usable bits of cedar for my mom to use for her basket tree or whatever she wanted to do with because we recognize you know we have all these logs that this company is going down into our onion seceded territories cutting them down bringing them back to our traditional territory stripping them down and making all these elaborate log homes and they're tearing them back down and they're shipping off around the world to people who can afford them but there's all this wastes on the site there's sawdust there's cedar bark there's little bits of wood that don't get used for the log homes and Jack and I are going through these piles of wood and he holds up these two pieces and he said Sonny don't these look like masks I said yeah Jack you're right these do look like masks and he says I bet you could do something interesting with these when I said I bet you're right and so I did and what I did is I as i mounted these on traditional not traditional but museum quality mass amounts so I approached the museum of anthropology and I said do you can you recommend someone to me that could make me some mass minutes and i mounted thirty one of these masks that I rescues reclaims from this lock on developing site and the outside of my studio for about five years before I did the show called lying in West Vancouver and had no idea what its gonna be doing I was just collecting him every time I go back home I just grab more and more and more so my studio smelt like glorious cedar but also beans from the burrito place that was underneath me so is it really neat neat smell this right here on a daily basis so yeah so I had these things sitting in my studio and I thought about augmenting them adding things to them sanding them down painting them visit as I started to look at them I just started to just appreciate the fact that they were faces and they were they were telling me a story and that the the kind of poetics that the chainsaw paired with the that the growth rings we're telling me the story this image of a face or a person or a personality was coming out of these works and that spawned into this other series on that I did where I wanted to explore the authenticity of North who is in a digit indigenous person and who is an indigenous artists and so I started thinking about challenging those authorities and to me especially in Vancouver and the northwest coast the authorities of who is an indigenous artists and induced person is the Anthropology museums is the first nations commercial galleries here in Vancouver and is the tourist traps as i call them where you can go down and go buy a pair of moccasins in your dream catcher and you say I've got an Indian thing from canada it's awesome i installed this this shot so i installed the guy up here in the corner number 13 and before i called the series longing the series is going to be called faceless and to me it was i was politicizing the work through the title by thinking about how First Nations people in Canada have been or are faceless through our archetype or society but when i installed number 13 in the museum of anthropology and it was up there for a month and a half so it is the little intervention that was there i made this little Tyler cartoon like the numbers or them and everything and when I step back to look at it and to allow my friend Eric dice whose the floor for this for the series I step back and honest I just looked up at number 13 and I just I just noticed the way that I placed the head and the way that the light was catching it that he was longing for something he was missing something in his life and it has kind of looked at what he was looking at he was looking at all the other artifacts in those display cases and instead of placing these emotions on to number thirteen thinking about well I could have been that mask I could have been that rattle I could have been that basket I could have been that feast bowl but through a series of weird fates I became garbage I have no purpose in life I am not ours I'm not culture I'm just waste but for me Mountain Iman those museum quality standards and placing them in these situations I gave them the purpose of being culture and the purpose of being objects of appreciation this is a shot called the equinox gallery which I wanted to do to investigate that First Nations bubble of authenticity in Vancouver and in Seattle and wherever else that has these kind of unique First Nations gallery this was installed in a show it wasn't in the show but it was just installed for the photograph at a show i think it was called the inside passage or past the president I camera which one it was but it was this collector don ellis that had all of his objects from his own personal collection he's been collecting over the years these post post 20s portsmouth make on our 1900s early late 1800s objects from my culture and so I placed them in these by these we lookin dishes and these paddles on the wall the you lookin dishes we're really interesting these ones right here let's not talk about my work for a second but these guys right here they're they're still looking grease embedded in the wood and so when the the pieces warmed up during the day lights are on you can actually see the grease come out of the wood which is really really beautiful oops i hope i didn't laser somebody that this is Robert's gallery and gifts I'm too bad than my cousin didn't come by today to see this because this is her shop and i wanted to investing in that tourist culture about how we have these galleries across canada doesn't matter if you're vancouver and montreal toronto winnipeg we're going to have one of these shops that pedals these these objects to people that they can go in there and they can think they're getting this unique object of culture but they're actually walking away the mask ruse item that may or may not have been made in China so I put the mask in the shop and I put him there took the photograph when I was given this president when I was giving a presentation on a bishop's university last winter there was a there was a student there who was from North Vancouver and he's talking about my work he was talking about my paintings asking these questions about them and said oh by the way that that shop Roberts gallery gifts that's on the corner of brand Valon something right like that's where it is all it's in gastown and I'm like actually no it's in Steveston its like the complete opposite in a town so what I thought interesting there was that it really hit home that he said that to me like he thought this was a gallery that was somewhere else in the city which were the kind of made it clear to me that this work was really this kind of speaking to the notion that every time you go into one of these shops are always going to find the same thing I think I'm running at a time here pretty quick but I coming up to the end this is the series that I'm working on right now it's called the happiest future and its really exploring that's hidden history in Canada and these are direct quotes from Duncan Campbell Scott who was Canada's head of department of Indian Affairs from nineteen thirteen to nineteen thirty-two I think it was he was also a celebrated Canadian poet he wrote a lot here Amanda sighs the Indian a lot through his poetry and through his work but he was very oppressive towards them in his in his day job his mandate was assimilation so he says the happiest future for the Indian race is absorption into the general population this is the policy of our government what a fine interesting there with this direct quote in thinking about how the current government is treating the indigenous people could take out Duncan Campbell Scott's name in place Stephen Harper I can go back to the 60s during a white paper incident in place in michelle corrections man because he was a head of department of affairs back then so it's interesting to see that this this notion of propaganda or assimilation has been produced in canada but not individual way and that's what this series is really trying to investigate their me is I really want to try and get to the root of the hate in Canada against the indigenous people bigotry that is out there and I really want to figure it out because I'm purple excited because we as Canadians feel we live in to utopia we feel that we are just weary knighted we're tolerant we're welcoming of all people or not you know this is a country that's not based on that you know you can think about what's going on in Quebec right now this is the exact same thing we're thinking about you know banning objects of religion through this notion of assimilation essentially so I found it really interesting that you know we have these perceptions of ourselves as Canadians but we have the perceptions of hate against indigenous people and it really came about for me by scrolling through different media sites like CBC The Globe and Mail whatever maybe blog posts the talk about stories of indigenous people in Canada whether they be positive or whether they be negative whether it's the odd no more movements or whatever there's always this element of hate that comes up and it's it's an element of hate sometimes is this very on the surface and the very gut reaction to 0 we pay your taxes you should just shut up you know you're just a dirty Indian you know assimilate get with the rest of society you know you got your free house you know you got your free how you go freelance you get your health care taken care of and these are all things that I see on these websites by other Canadians and I really want to try and figure out where this comes from and for me it is the words of Duncan Campbell Scott and it's perpetuated this hate and so this series is really starting to think about propaganda and how at some point in Canada's history this visual Papa ganem must have been popular out there to spread the intolerance and spread the bigotry this is a shot of it in Toronto right now it's up on a show called ghost dance and this curated by Steve loft so there's sort of big they're 18 x 36 and i installed them in a line there this is called selective history and this is another Duncan Campbell Scott Scott quote hopefully I can read it from here I want to get rid of the Indian problem I do not think it as a matter of fact that we can ought to continuously protect a class of people who are able to stand alone our objective is to continue until there's not a single Indian in Canada that has not been absorbed into the body body politic and there is no Indian question and no Indian department that is the object of this bill this is assimilation as a segregation this is a part I this is Canada's history and we don't learn it in school this is information I had to seek out while being here at Emily Carr and after leaving school this is information that's hidden from us this is information that really challenges the fabric of Canada's identity of being tolerant and just and I presented to you in such a way that I'm hopefully challenging people to step up to that notion of tolerance and understanding in Utopia to learn about Canada's history and understand it and help the indigenous people through the issues of colonization and not belittle them anymore not berate them and I called the Selective history because through this quote Duncan Campbell Scott is saying there's an Indian problem in the white paper they were saying there was an Indian problem and the omnibus budget bill that Stephen Harper past there is an Indian problem it's not an Indian problem it's a selective history problem on the bottom here right there oh that says that's just his name Duncan Campbell Scott's headed Department of Indian Affairs 1913 1932 these quotes i got from wikipedia they're out there you can find them online these are two pieces within that series as well we have chief speaker and 11 nations this is a direct quote from our prime minister stephen harper in 2009 at the g8 g20 conference in philadelphia we also have no history of colonialism so we have all the things that many people admire about great powers but none of the things that threaten our bother so his words in my piece are crossing out first nations aboriginal native indian i sometimes I don't have any words after I read that quote because this is stephen harper HD he prides himself on being one of the most history knowledgeable person people of hist of canadian history but he says these words and it's just like are you serious he actually said these things a couple days later after he the quote hit the news and people were tweeting about it and blogging about it he comes up and says I didn't mean I meant that we don't have any external history of colonization so we don't go to somewhere like the Philippines and take them over as they didn't say the Philippines I just saying as an example the bottom one is called 11 nations and this is a quote from poly muwah who is now the Premier of Quebec and she's in the news a lot recently it is what it is the responsibility of everyone the wishes the call Quebec their home to learn and assimilate the local culture and not replace it with their own and her words cross out the 11 nations the 11 traditional First Nations of what we now call Quebec I know we're running out of time and I'm almost finished so thank you for bearing with me this is product res this is a piece that I did in 2011-2012 first for a show called decolonized me that's now turn around the country it's just it's taking on this this identity of consumption culture through the red campaign that Apple starbucks Bono has gap have adopted you go out you spend thirty five dollars in a t-shirt thirty-five cents of that goes to help people in Africa with AIDS what I found interesting is that we will go out on a way to consume to help people but we will continue to ignore the people in our own backyard and so that that's what these pieces represent to me this is there is hope free rise number one and two rise and round dance and this again was produced for show the burnaby art gallery the artist poster show that I was part of and the Bernie bear art gallery commissioned me to do these works and it was inspired by the idle no more movement so the gallery wanted to produce these posters to hand out for idle no more round dances information sessions teachings and I developed 12 of them that have the common phrases from within the movement there's rise round dance never idle idle no more idle no more learn teach challenge stereotypes lead confront resist decolonize and they all have the four little ovoids on the bottom to pay respect to the four founding women of the idle no more movement but it's done in this kind of propaganda series style and I was influenced by shepard fairey's hope poster that he did for Obama during his first president presidential campaign and this is my latest piece here this is called LYLAS desk and this is a story about my grandmother's first day of high school my grandmother was given the great honor to be allowed to continue on to high school after grade 8 up until then it was illegal for First Nations people to attend school after the after the 8th grade they were either subjugated to a residential school or an Indian day school an Indian day school is a residential school about this day if you're a man or a boy at the death at a resident of school or day school you're taught to be a laborer if you're a woman you were taught to be a housewife as a funny kind of side story to this I remember when I was when I finished grade 8 I was in junior high at the time as my first year of junior high and my grandfather was still alive and he says to me and he raped he helped raise me and he says to me I'm so proud of you for for continuing on and going into grade nine you have no idea how proud I am of you and I just looked them in said well thanks it'sit's great nine like I still have four more years like what's going on and you told me like I just dropped out I became a pool shark and then eventually became a fisherman and he was one of the youngest commercial fishing captains in British Columbia for the BC Packers and I just thought he had enough of school because that's that's what I heard of like when you drop out of school you just had enough you don't need to go anymore whatever and for me like was just a was so so such of a small achievement grade eight that it really makes sense than the other time but I found that he was not legally allowed to go to school so I great he was older than my grandmother so he he stopped when he steps up is done he's done anyways so for this piece my grandmother was allowed to go to school so in the late nineteen thirty-nine teen 30s Berlin 1840s they changed the law with an Indian Act to allow students to continue on to high school they wish what my grant and she told me the story a lot what I found out for the stories that when she started going to school is that she was super far behind they didn't really teach her anything she didn't really know how to read all that well she could not write very much she barely knew arithmetic but she prevailed she went on she she graduated she made at the grade 12 but on her first day of high school of grade nine a boy named Peter McFerrin bar soap on her desk and said you're just a dirty Indian I had a good laugh his friends and that's it and it's a sad story because you know this is a story that can resonate to a lot of people in this room into a lot of people within the the residential school system because this is this is probably not a singular incident yeah and it's important that I tell the story because it really gives a human face to the issues and that's essentially what i want to do with my work so I want to give the issues of colonization a human face because we're humans you know we were just treated that we were just treated not like humans and that's the nests of what this piece is about so it's reclaimed 1930 school desk that i found on craigslist i refurbished it i stripped down i sent it off all the crayon marks from various generations of kids playing on it refinished its and a copper leaf the cast iron bottom parts and presented it as a story about my grandmother's first day and I found the exact bar soap on ebay called life boy and she this is the soap that she told about he plopped down a bar of lifebuoy soap on my desk you know she remembers the details so clearly and it's eerie it's so scary you know this is this is a story that stuck with her that affected her entire life you know and this is a story that I'm constantly told and I want to keep telling a story to to you into my daughter to remember you know so to light it up a little bit this is this some recent stuff that I've done recently and I'm almost finished my presentation this is tag this is at the corner of Seymour Pacific it just got installed yesterday it's my my second public art piece and it kind of lays claim to Vancouver through an indigenous discourse by using the iconography from my people and the various peoples under North the lower mainland and tagged references graffiti culture on the off ramp on the c-more offering the grandma bridge there was all this graffiti on there that had been collecting over the years but the developer washed it out because they don't want to have that stuff in front of the people's eyes when they walk over their houses in every morning and so I paid respect to that graffiti into the artwork that was thereby creating this piece called tag and I'm really excited that I was able to see it finally installed it's a each pen there's five panels in total and they're all around 4 by 4 4 foot by 4 foot and so it's nice to actually see them in real life because I just looking at them super semalam I'm a computer screen when I was making them so it's really cool to have an out there and then a last public art piece that I've done recently now this was from a couple years ago for Vancouver's 125th anniversary it's indigenous trail and wagon road so if you're going alone kingsway starting at Manning kingsway all the way to boundary you will see these signs about every two or three blocks and it's based on a story I heard that kingsway was was was created from the wagon road that the settlers used and the wagon road was created from the indigenous trail the indigenous people used that connected people around coquitlam all the way down to where we are now so this is paying respect to the indigenous peoples in the Lower Mainland to give them a voice in Vancouver's colonial anniversary and that's it I thank you for your time thank you | Emily Carr University | UCgeUIGvLAuHti-xGEOIFfRw | 2015-09-01 | Creative Commons Attribution

Baca Burke to begin our series of talks this afternoon Tennant used to speaking at medical conferences okay so so far I found this conference is so completely inspiring I felt absolutely blown away I'm very humbled to be following all the speakers who preceded me starting last night with that beautiful talk by Rajiv Malhotra and part that I love and someone earlier commented and seen was a little controversial but I just thought was really very where he described the different categories of people a new tradition in America and the different ways that it might make their contribution from people who are kind of in the closet and doing this surreptitious Lee those who were more front and those were very bold and up front and so forth but I thought this yet another category that might be introduced and that's people that me who aren't from the Hindu tradition but who were deeply inspired by it in my case young age and who made it are really their life's work to advance these principles and these concepts within mainstream American life in the spring of 1968 I was a senior at Columbia in the classroom I'm an elective course that was taking on Eastern religion and the professor who was not at all of Indian origin she's German she wrote on the board is that remembered writing in those days it was and she was writing these famous aphorisms from the Upanishads on the bhagavad-gita and I said why hadn't I ever heard these before and I thought this is obviously the truth of life it just dawned on me one you know experiences and I knew then that I wanted this to be a centerpiece the centerpiece of my of my life and I found ways to integrate it into medicine when it went on to medical school and so forth which I'll tell you about more as we go on so holistic living the Vedic ideal of healthy life nex-5 holistic living near me so many ways to to explain it but we could say these includes balance of four levels mind-body your kind of bargain I'm going to come back to these four levels as we go on the Vedic tradition of India which includes yoga meditation Ayurveda provides a wealth of practical wisdom highly relevant to maintaining health and balance in today's busy stressful world I think one of the most inspiring things I've been awarding things for me as a physician has been working with these most ancient principles and concepts and finding that they actually provide the solution to most pressing problems of modern health and modern life one of the things I learned early on from my teachers was this beautiful tradition Vedic tradition of painting respect for the teachers honoring the teachers that we see met so many times today I wanted to order at the outset not two principal teachers and others but particularly when our you know SGR media and arrive bacteria spotted a tree boa Maharishi was the founder of the Transcendental Meditation technique and marshy Ayurveda responsible for pollinating meditation and Ayurveda throughout the world I'm sorry next slide so of so much the founder of TM and mihashi Ayurveda and really a major driving force in breathing meditation Ayurveda to the west and all around the world and Raj my tibias but they didn't even it was a disciple of Marci he was former president of people India Ayurvedic Congress and honorary physician to the President of India and it was so fulfilling for me that on August 30th of this year Prime Minister Modi selected these two as two out of twelve master healers of India to be honoured by the Government of India with there´ll and postage stamp postage stamp which is actually so I think if we're talking about a holistic living and we need to start with the beta concept of wholeness what is holistic so this is what blew me away when I sitting in that classroom or a society of homeless this was literally this logo that she wrote on the board that day that chairman the professor that clicked with me I own tomorrow the self is Raman the wholeness of life okay self my inner self is identical with the totality of the University so that's something worth going delving into and then another one there's so many but this one was specially cited in Ayurveda yeah toughened a Top Ramen day as this the atom so is the universe as is the body so is a cosmic body so I think these these are not the fanciful philosophical statements this is this is the reality and it's engrained in the physiology in the human physiology in so many ways and when we have that as our vision as our structure or a framework and it makes us so much more effective as practitioners health dishes the three areas that I was asked to briefly cover it to introduce paper way for the other speakers yoga meditation and higher beta so in yoga I thought let's look and see what the Government of India how it defines yoga we got this one from ministry now the Ministry of I use I her Veda yoga etc so I used to find yoga as a discipline to improve or develop ones inherit inherent power in a balanced manner it offers the means to attain complete self-realization yoga can be defined as a means of igniting the individual spirit with the universal spirit of God and I thought that was so great that the Ministry of yoga by used does not shrink from discussing yoga in terms of awesome the postures or whatever but really has this authentic made vision of what yoga is it is their official definition here are some other traditional definitions from the classical texts from the yoga sutra chapter to yoga chitta vritti nirodh hub meaning yoga is the least excited state and from bhagavad-gita chapter 2 I'm sorry that she was teachers chapter where I got a key teach attitude summit Vong yoga you chat a balancing mind is called yoga and a few verses later yogah karmasu kaushalam yoga is skill in action so so many levels of yoga from very internal least excited state a little bit more expressed balance of mind and that most expressed the field of action how it affects our action balance attached yoga in the yoga teacher Maharshi Patanjali disguised Ashtanga Yoga that eat limbs of yoga tremendous if we want to talk about holistic living we need look no further than yoga the yoga sutras it includes behavioral prescriptions exercise the physical postures that have become so popular asana pranayama breathing exercise and mental practices particularly meditation yoga in the US has become enormous and popular one in seven Americans have practiced yoga within the past year and these numbers have been increasing steadily from 2007 to the present and the National Institutes of Health National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health reports scientific documentation for the benefits of yoga in the following areas and they're very rigorous when they do these reviews the NIH Center is very rigorous in what they would include as credible research but they stand behind this research on yoga in the area of stress management until an emotional health healthy eating and lifestyle habits yoga improves sleep and physical balance it's been shown to improve menopausal symptoms it improves pain management provides assistance for weight reduction smoking cessation and reduces fatigue and improves quality of life and chronic disease patients of course that each one of these can be a subject at school enormous talk or even a course but we're just I'm just going through this as a way of introducing that was subject out of the yoga we know in the usage of the last of lead of the eight limbs of yoga is Samadhi Samadhi is transcending transcendental consciousness unbounded awareness within it one of the great gifts that Mara she gave to the world was to show that that is easy to achieve it is not something that is difficult it doesn't require a cynicism it can be it's easily learned by anybody in any walk of life and the system called Transcendental Meditation directly derives from the Yoga Sutras was maintained and thousands of years in the chakra acharya tradition of the india motor she brought it to the West in the late 1950s encouraged the scientific exploration and so we're not as the medical student and while you these studies were first coming out in science American Journal physiology Scientific American which is played a big role in my interest in learning chances out meditation starting from those first three studies the research lewis literature has grown tremendously there are now 424 over 420 peer-reviewed published studies on TM to date the NIH has granted research grants for over 220 80 million dollars so TM is a mechanics that is natural to the system and what happens in tienes was called transcending the mine naturally settles down goes beyond thought beyond the gross thinking level and progressively to more subtle more subtle more so space of thought ultimately transcends thought altogether and experiences that state of inner consciousness unbounded awareness which is called Samadhi in the Yoga Sutras so it does not involve concentration it does not require effort or focused attention it doesn't involve contemplation it doesn't involve mindfulness it's and this is one thing that if I'm very useful in my medical practice that this practice is very easily added to the daily routine even for very busy people it doesn't require any change of mindset and lifestyle and it's completely without any particular religious affiliation of course we recognize that all these practices are coming from the ancient Vedic tradition of India but the universal realloc of ethical for people of all walks of life and it's taught in the traditional manner by trained teachers in a one one to one instruction by the teacher just to do some of the research results on transelementation and wide range of health benefits including improved memory and cognitive cognitive function we do stress anxiety depression and PTSD some of these others have good pull up to slides to show in a moment but rather than just read through the whole list if you're interested in learning more about the research or anything else about TM I would refer you to the website at the bottom which is www.eso.org ESO the european central years ago the american heart association of these two scientific statement they view all the scientific studies on meditation and mental relaxation techniques on blood pressure and they found that Transcendental Meditation reduces blood pressure they said that TM it can be considered in clinical practice to lower blood pressure so this was publicized throughout the medical profession at the time they did not find that for any other form of meditation or any other mental technique that scientific research in the area blood pressure and this study which was one of the NIH supported studies done at Medical College of Wisconsin this is a randomized control trial of of individuals who had no incarnated heart disease follow of a period of five years and the the randomized design chance of a limitation has found a 40% reduction in death heart attack and stroke compared to controls this is a very strong evidence that the mind has a powerful effect on the body without our full healing effect and preventive effect that could have such an important effect on something so so physical as coordinating heart disease last in the area of the research I'm to him I just wanted to mention because it speaks to one of the main goals of this legend which is to create a world that's peaceful and harmonious in the yoga Sutra it says taught sunny damn you taught sunny Guevara to yoga which means in the vicinity of coherence Yoga hostile tendencies are eliminated now it's deeply part of the Vedic tradition that there is a collective consciousness and that all of us are connected on a deep level and through the practices of yoga and particularly the practice of meditation it stimulates that field of collective consciousness in which we are all connected so these technologies are predicted by the Vedic literature to have an effective promote peace and harmony in society so in this cutting-edge research and there's 42 studies that have been done in this area some of them published in very top journals including Yale University's Journal of conflict resolution these looked at the large numbers of people practicing trance and and it's the best techniques in groups and this is a slide showing include in Washington DC and one such study and what has been found in these studies is a very significant correlation with these large groups of practicing TM and reductions in crime rate and even beyond the local area reductions in distant conflicts and acts of terrorism and even in warring global conflicts depending on how large the group is and this research though it seems to be amazing to the Western mind is actually very much in tune with the principles of the Vedic literature and it's been signed off on by leading social scientists and universities throughout the country so if you're interested in this work I would suggest you google the global union of scientists for peace global union of scientists released and there is a beautiful a very nice review of that and very quickly at the end I Aveda oldest continually practice medical system higher data main principle of Ayurveda its balance of mine body Adrienne apartment and that Ayurvedic teaches us how to live in harmony with natural law and when we do that he wakes up about his own internal healing mechanism so body has tremendous capacity for self healing and repair you just have to know how to with nature I just there's a lot of Statistics here like yoga Ayurveda is growing in popularity it's lagging a little behind the sister science of Europe I want to get a special appreciation to nama and Hillary's work at nama they have been developing professional standards for Ayurvedic medical practice that are going to become a universal I think many professional training programs in Ayurveda are coming up all across the country including one that I'm on faculty are a new Marshall University of Management which is an accredited master's in science program and others that are listed here and one very encouraging trend is the inclusion of Ayurveda in curricula as part of integrated medical curriculum Connecticut schools across the United States and some of these are listed here and finally as a practicing physician interested in Ayurveda one of the most encouraging things for me has been this growing body of science showing that the core principles of Ayurveda are actually corroborated by modern science and many of these studies was done by people well no idea that this is what my ear Veda has been saying for thousands of years but they're coming up with these researches if this is the first time you sit and say so the idea that there's body types of constitutional types and one has to learn how to eat and behave and exercise of a tomb or the once own Constitution which is a hallmark of Ayurveda is now being scientifically verified and especially in genomic studies excellent research on gut health as key to systemic wellness to general Romans the health of the country gesture originated and Ayurveda now everyone vegetarian diet coincidence would have a separate talk on that except to save yourself a lot of good research on it long term studies many many subjects coming out to prove benefits of vegetarian diet timing is everything according to Ayurveda we should we need to know that in terms of our meals are exercised the main meal should be at lunch and there's three excellent studies that have come out and literature in the past just the past three years that have corroborated this main meal at lunch early bedtime and arrives with time so importantly simple simple behaviors that everyone started to do this it would cut chronic disease I believe by 80% timing of exercise exercise should be done in the morning Ayurveda has said that there's a time immemorial there's reasons for that modern research is showing that and exercise should vary according to one's body type certain people need vigorous exercise certain people should not do they force exercise so knowing that is so important and then it's simply that interface between mind and body as a key to creating health that ancient Ayurvedic principle so in conclusion the Vedic tradition of knowledge offers a broad vision of human potential for holistic living encompassing mind body behavior environment and ranging from the health of the individual to that of the society and the world modern scientific research is validating many of the core vedic principles and practices which offer solutions to some of the most pressing problems in modern life today to inspiring quotes from the literature's fusty Red John valya or apollyon Tom may the good belong to all the people of the world and this is already mentioned earlier today us who tell you to become the world is my family [Applause] Namastey so my name is Ganesh - people call me Cassius myself let me start with the next slide please so this whole topic is about holistic living well seeing the whole world where if humanity comes together in his harmony seems very idealistic is it at all possible and my my guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar he says I mean very nicely that loyalty starts with individual ease unless we have some peace at the level of the individual it's not funny to translate there and like Stuart said before me yet the the individual reflects in the microcosm makes in the microcosm so if we start from where we are we can get to where you need to be next life means and the word yoga itself comes from the root huge which means to in mind and to bring it together so unite to be bought uniting the loose ends of our existence maybe you're sitting here with the mind go somewhere else you're one rainy lunch maybe that's why we all came back in so fast here look the body mind all of it needs to come together and that's where our efficiencies group so that's how the practices of yoga and here when I see you going include us in our pranayama meditation as the ether gives a very beautiful framework in which to make this happen through puppy through gana through karma and all of these facets of yoga are something that we can use to make this you I'm just giving a short overview of what I'm going to be talking and then I'm plunging to the topics and are you living what we teach is or they are not living not the art of which is really what the bhagavad-gita talks about how we can translate meditation into work as doctors very nicely put it about the different levels of yoga and we do this using Sudarshan Kriya which so means proper darshan is vision Kriya is action so you should be an action that can be a proper vision so a lot of times holistic living is all about seeing the whole and not the parts or see the paths and looking into how it ties into the whole so that's where we Felix Russian Korea is a very beautiful technique that can make this happen ex-fiancé so this brings me to the topic how we can look at holistic living and the way this gives us a very beautiful framework the furniture OSHA the punches worship talks of the wound of existences annamaya kosha annamaya kosha manomaya kosha it jana my question on the my question i am a butcher is that it is made up of food and in a certain sense what we see is food for the eyes what we hear is food for the years so typically you would look

VE1QK1x4XbA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE1QK1x4XbA | 2009 GMC 2500HD - 2015+ Style Tow Mirror Upgrade | what's up guys max max works here and today I'm gonna be showing you how to install tow mirrors on my 2009 GMC 2500 HD now I recently told about a 27-foot RV with my truck and truck did great but one of the really frustrating things was that I couldn't really see anything around it and this is a upgrade I've been planning for a while so I decided to finally pull the trigger one side note about the towing mirrors for this model truck I have a fully loaded truck so mine actually has auto folding mirrors with the little ones that feature was not available for Auto folding or auto telescoping for the HD trucks for these mirrors so I am losing that feature set but these do have integrated turn signals they do have a defroster in them as you can see they are the new style mirrors like you find on a 2015 or later truck so I think they're going to look really good plus they have this right here which is a really bright LED clearance lamp it's gotta be wired separately and I'll show you guys how to do that to make it work the way I want it to work but this is fully fully powered up here and then this one down here is is manual on both sides plus they extended and closed up manually as well so we're not really losing any major feature set because you couldn't get that truck with Auto folding mirrors if they were the tow mirrors anyway nice all is pretty straightforward and I got this kid off eBay 140 bucks for both mirrors they seem to be really well-made the quality of the wire the plug is all good and they should plug into our factory receptacle so I'm gonna take you guys over to the truck and show you it's pretty basic you just unbolt the inside of the door card and remove this I'll show you guys how to do all that and we'll get this fit up on the truck and see the difference now here you can see the factory mirror the only other feature that we're losing is this mirror is actually autodarkening as well and the new mirrors do not have that feature unfortunately my automatic folding does not work on either side so I'm not really losing anything there in that regard these mirrors are okay but they're really the same size is the 1500 mirrors and they really just too small for a heavy-duty truck and so we're gonna take them off and replace them and this is all pretty much straight bolt on [Music] [Applause] you [Music] you [Music] for so here's our old mirror off and you can see it's got two plugs on it this one the white one controls the the memory function and the auto dim and the automatic lowering when you hit reverse and stuff of you have those options enabled and the black one handles all the turn signal and standard power features so now we're going to bring our new mirror over here and mount it to the door and figure out how we're going to do all of our wiring so there we go the cool thing is is this thing is already integrated the way I want it so we hit the flashers you can see that it flashes on the inside of the glass and flashes here on the outside and these are not DRLs because the urls are on right now so this is already wired the way I want the only thing left is this guy now now this whole affair is pretty straightforward the only really not fun thing about it is running this wire and this is the wire that goes to that external light and we're going to eventually wire it into the reverse but you got to get it through this grommet here in the door and into the cab and the easiest way I found of doing that is to use a piece of TIG wire or something similar left to feed it in from the inside of the cab and then basically stick your hand down in here and just kind of push it through with your fingers and eventually pops out and it just plugs in here and now we have all of our wiring done we can put this door back together the process on the other side is exactly the same the only thing I want to point out is it's good to go through and tighten these tighten this one tighten this one time this one then go back tighten this one and go around several times because there's a piece of foam behind here and it's really going to take up the slack otherwise you're going to end up with mirrors that shake all over the place which is really annoying so that's pretty much it for this we're going to take some time and do the other door real quick and get everything all button back up and then I'll bring you guys back and show you how we wire up the reverse lights so there you go that's what it looks like with the toe mirror on one side and the standard mirror on the other you can see the toe mirror really fits the big bold phase of the truck a lot better now the gray wire right here doesn't matter you can just cut it off and I ground it to this bolt but you can ground anywhere you want really the ywír zone we have to run to our source and so I looked around there doesn't seem to be a good way to wire it to the reverse lights other than to go to the reverse camera which actually has another power wire on it so when you go in Reverse that wire gets ignited on both ends and I have a wired into the tail light so it should come on over here as well so that involves taking out the head unit again which is kind of shitty maybe somebody else is a better idea but this is really the best I can do so that's what we're going to do all right so we got a little housekeeping to take care of but that's pretty much it which you see right here this wire goes back along the video line to the rear turn to our backup camera and what we do is jumped in this whatever I put in Reverse both of those side lights will light up so now I just got to clean a few things up get everything all back together if Eva's heading out probably like a dozen times by now so it'll go back together pretty quick and I'll give you guys a demonstration of all the features [Music] well there you have it installations not too bad total install time with all the custom wiring and stuff was right around an hour hour and 15 minutes they slide out manually they feel really pretty quality the only thing I've noticed that this one sits at a slightly different angle than the driver side but I took a look at pictures of OAM tow haul trucks and they stood like that too was kind of interesting that this one's angled slightly more in towards the body than the driver side one is but they look really good from the front of the truck the side of the truck I do like the extra illumination and the ability to see everything down here as well as everything up here really is pretty handy so I'm pretty happy with them all in all for about one hundred and forty bucks it's a worthwhile upgrade for me because I pull a lot of trailers like that so I'm pretty happy the way this turned out I'm max this is max Berg's I want to thank you guys for watching make sure to LIKE subscribe leave me a comment let me

consensus all-america honors as a senior playing for the North Texas State Mean Green football team he was drafted by the Steelers fourth overall in the 1969 NFL Draft and made an immediate impact with the team as he was named the NFL's Defensive Rookie of the Year Green is credited with providing the foundation upon which Steelers coach Chuck Noll turned the dismal franchise into a sports dynasty he was the centerpiece of the Steel Curtain defense that led Pittsburgh to four Super Bowl championships in a six-year span throughout his career Green was one of the most dominant defensive players in the NFL able to overpower opposing offensive linemen with ease and disrupt blocking former teammate Andy Russell called green unquestionably the NFL's best player in the 70s he is a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in the College Football Hall of Fame and his number 75 Jersey as one of only two retired by the Steelers Green is also well known for his appearance in the hey kid

killer instincts he's mobile and hostile topic nickname while sources agree the name as a reference to North Texas athletics teams the mean green there are conflicting accounts as to how when and why Green received his Mean Green nickname when he first arrived at North Texas the university's moniker was the Eagles in 1966 Green's first year on the varsity team the team adopted the Mean Green moniker two possible origins of the nickname are two separate cheers that supposedly developed independently during North Texas 1966 game against UTEP one cheer was by Sidney sue Graham wife of the North Texas sports information director in response to a tackle by Greene she blurted out that's the way Mean Green Bill Mercer former North Texas play-by-play announcer states grams thought behind the nickname was the Mean Green defense meanwhile in the student section North Texas basketball players Willie Davis and I read Daniels unsatisfied with the an enthusiastic crowd began to sing mean green you look so good to me the rest of the crowd soon followed after that we did it every game Davis said a lot of people later on started associating it with Joel because his last name was green but it actually started with that simple chant that Saturday night at Fouts field and that's the truth although it stuck with him throughout his professional career due to his playing style Greene himself was not fond of the nickname insisting it did not reflect his true character I just want people to remember me as being a good player and not really mean he said I want to be remembered for playing 13 years and contributing to four championship teams I would like to be remembered for maybe setting a standard for others to achieve Topic professional football career the Pittsburgh Steelers franchise was one of the most downtrodden in the NFL having experienced many losing seasons before the hiring of Chuck Noll as head coach in 1969 Noll and the Rooney family which had owned the franchise since its formation agreed that building the defensive line was crucial to rebuilding the team thus they decided on green with the fourth pick of the 1969 NFL Draft the selection proved unpopular with fans and media who were hoping for a player that would generate excitement the relatively unknown Green did not appear to meet their expectations meanwhile Green who was highly competitive was disappointed he was picked by a team that had such a reputation for losing I did not did not want to be a Steeler he admitted in a 2013 interview Knowles saw immense potential in green and insisted on drafting him in a matter of months he established himself as one of the most dominant players in the league at his position despite his team finishing 1969 with a 1 to 13 win-loss record The Associated Press AP named green the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year and he was invited to his first Pro Bowl former teammate Andy Russell called green unquestionably the NFL's best player in the 70s saying no player had a greater impact or did more for his team Green and coach Noll are widely credited with turning the Steelers franchise around the Steelers finished 1970 with a 5 to 9 record and went 6 to 8 in 1971 Green was invited to the Pro Bowl in both seasons in 1972 Pittsburgh finished 11 to 3 and won its first division title in its first playoff game the Immaculate reception game against the Oakland Raiders during the season green tallied 11 quarterback sacks and 42 solo tackles and he was recognized as the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year Miami Dolphins head coach Don Shula lauded Green saying he's just a super superstar it's hard to believe he isn't offside on every play he makes the other team adjust to him by this time Noll had built a formidable defense we have maybe 10 guys now capable of making all-pro said green in 1972 I'm just like all the other guys doing my best in a team effort with the drafting of defensive tackle Ernie Holmes in 1972 the Steelers assembled what became known as the Steel Curtain defensive line of green homes Elsie Greenwood and Dwight White Green was invited to the Pro Bowl for 1973 joining white and Greenwood on the American Football Conference AFC roster Green won his second AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year award after the 1974 season becoming the first player to receive the award multiple times that year he developed a new tactic of lining up at a sharp angle between the guard and center to disrupt the opposition's blocking assignments his coaches were at first skeptical of the tactic and did not allow him to try it during the regular season he first implemented it against the Buffalo Bills in the division championship game it proved to be highly effective as it impeded Buffalo's blocking and running back old Jay Simpson managed only 48 yards rushing the following week the Steelers faced the Oakland Raiders in the AFC Championship game with the defining matchup being green against all-pro center Jim Otto at one point green consumed by emotions kicked Otto in the groin later on a third down play green through Otto to the ground with one arm before leaping to SAC quarterback Ken Stabler Oakland was held to 29 rushing yards in the Steelers 24 213 victory On January 12 1975 the Steelers won their first of four Super Bowl championships in a six-year span by defeating the Minnesota biking 16 to 6 in Super Bowl 9 in that game lined up against Center Mick tingle Hoff Green recorded an interception forced fumble and fumble recovery in what is considered one of the greatest individual defensive Super Bowl performances Pittsburgh limited the Vikings to only 119 total yards of offense 17 of which were gained on the ground after the season Green was honored by the Pittsburgh post-gazette at its 39th dapper dan dinner as Pittsburgh's outstanding sports figure of the year Green missed four games in 1975 due to a pinched nerve snapping a streak of 91 straight games started since he entered the league in December 1975 he and the other members of the Steel Curtain appeared on the cover of Time magazine after leading the Steelers to another Super Bowl win after the 1975 season over the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl 10 Green missed the first several games of the 1976 season with a back injury the Steelers started off the season one to four and looked like they would not make the playoffs quarterback Terry Bradshaw was also injured and was replaced by rookie Mike crutch ik Green returned and the Steelers defense carried the team to nine straight wins and the playoffs with the defense considered one of the best in NFL history the 1976 Steelers held opponents to an average of less than 10 points per game 138 points over 14 games during their nine-game winning streak the Steelers defense recorded five shutouts including three straight and surrendered a total of 28 points roughly three points per game the defense allowed only two touchdowns over those nine games the Steelers were defeated by the Raiders in that year's AFC Championship game by 1977 Green was the captain of the Steelers defense although his reduced effectiveness over the previous two seasons due to injuries led to rumors that he was washed up he was never again able to attain the same success as a pass rusher after his pinched nerve in 1975 spurred by the rumors he returned in 1978 to lead all Pittsburgh linemen in tackles and he had four sacks and a career-high five fumble recoveries the Steelers defense allowed a league low 195 points during the season enroute to a 35 to 31 victory over the Cowboys in Super Bowl 13 in that contest Green had one of Pittsburgh's five sacks of Dallas quarterback Roger Staubach Pittsburgh finished the 1979 season with a 12 to four record and ranked second in total defense and fifth in scoring defense Green was named a first-team all-pro by the Pro Football Writers Association and Pro Football Weekly and was invited to his final Pro Bowl he was also deemed the NFL's Man of the Year in recognition of his off-field contributions in the AFC Championship game against the Houston Oilers the Steelers held NFL MVP earl campbell to just fifteen rushing yards on 17 carries Pittsburgh then defeated the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 14 for an unprecedented fourth Superbowl title with the fourth title came Greene's fourth Super Bowl ring inspiring his famous phrase one for the thumb an allusion to winning a fifth championship his wish went unfulfilled however as the Steelers failed to reach the playoffs in each of his final two seasons green retired as a player following the 1981 season he finished his career having played in 181 out of a possible 100 90 games and recorded seventy eight point five sacks and officially as sacks were not an official statistic until 1982 and 16 fumble recoveries his spot in the lineup was technically not replaced the steelers switched to a three to four defensive alignment for the 1982 season which has only one nose tackle as opposed to two defensive tackles the team has used the three to four as its base alignment continuously in the years since Greene's retirement and more recently have used alignments that deploy only to Tru linemen topic attitude and playing style he's tough and mean and comes to hit people he has good killer instincts he's mobile and hostile Green's nickname remained popular due to his exploits on the playing field where he was described as ferocious and intimidating he instilled fear in opponents with the intensity of his play in a 1979 game against the Houston Oilers with only seconds remaining in Houston leading 20 to 17 the Oilers lined up near the Pittsburgh goal line to run their final play with victory already assured for the Oilers Green pointed angrily across the line of scrimmage at Houston quarterback Dan Pastorini warning if you come into the end zone I'll beat the crap out of you I'm gonna kill you Pastorini responded by taking a knee ending the game afterward Green laughed and said I knew you weren't going to do it in his early years with the Steelers Green was at times uncontrollable and often let his temper get the best of him on one occasion during a 1975 game against the rival Cleveland Browns at Cleveland Municipal Stadium Green repeatedly kicked Browns lineman Bob Mackay in the groin while McKay was lying on the ground he also punched Denver Broncos guard Paul Howard and spat at quarterback Fran Tarkenton and he frequently clashed with officials Green and middle linebacker Jack Lambert became the emotional leaders of Pittsburgh's defensive squad Green was described as a huge presence both on and off the field Joel Gordon of the Steelers front office recalled an instance in which a teammate was loudly voicing his discontent over the long and cold practice they had just gone through as he yanked off his equipment at a nearby locker Green lifted his head and silently glared at him believe me that's all Joe did he never even said anything said Gordon I don't think the other players saw Joe glare at him I think the other player just felt it and then he sat down and never said another word a natural leader Green was named the captain of the defense in 1977 his leadership was also channeled to the offense Lynn Swann a wide receiver considered green a mentor if you were giving less than 100 percent he let you know one way or the other said Swan topic acting career topic coca-cola commercial Green appeared in a famous commercial for coca-cola that debuted on October 1st 1979 and was aired during Super Bowl 14 on January 20th 1980 the ad won a Clio award in 1980 for being one of the best commercials of 1979 it is widely considered to be one of the best television commercials of all time the commercial helped shift the public's perception of Greene as hostile and unapproachable to a soft hearted nice guy topic other roles while most well-known for the coca-cola commercial Green has acted in other roles one

tayqDLHujHA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tayqDLHujHA | NBC Closed Circuit For Affiliate Chief Engineers 1985 | the following closed circuit is for NBC affiliate Chief Engineers the subject k-band NBC's Final Countdown hi I'm Don cavelle again operations on the k-band satellite system on this closed circuit I'm going to tell you about the current effort that's pulling the system together this week and our timetable for phasing out of the landlines during the next weeks our plan is to retain the landlines in place as a backup facility only until the final performance elements of our k-band system are in place and consistent let's start by telling you that the most of our k-band Affiliates were successful in the tests we conducted during the last two closed circuits their switching transitions were smooth you saw the tape I ran last Thursday from KYW Philadelphia the switching system works well but as we expected there would still be a lot of cleanup to do in getting all of the ground station Hardware to work with all of the satellite Network Management Systems software we're very fortunate that it's coming together so quickly and we want to thank you for your excellent responses to the two questionnaires some of our stations reported that no switching took place at all that could be caused by equipment that should have been remote and by a malfunction in the command receivers the new software identified as 109 really made the station switch whereas we found that the older version 103 was not a consistent performer some stations needed new address codes and some of our computer software did too to summarize the station should be in remote with both command receivers operational 109 software loaded and the correct address sent and received and that station will switch especially now since we are sending out double commands on the two transponders simultaneously it will switch next we found that some stations reported that the transitions were not smooth that is correctable by having the frame sync in mode 2 and the 109 software loaded the right software can help the frame sync do a better job in covering that transition you know our two closed circuits really put the system to the ultimate test making it do a match frame edit while you were watching we didn't switch in Black we switched between the exact two same pictures and talked through the entire sequence our tests were designed to show up any flaws to you very clearly a few stations reported that the video level changed a change that lasted meant that our New York uplinks needed better matching a momentary change meant that the 1e receiver might not be matched to the 1R receiver remember in any switch you see the 1e receiver first on destination 1R while the 1R receiver is retuning and then you see the 1R receiver a very few stations heard audio pops during the transition and that again may be an unmatched 1e receiver momentarily appearing on one r as the switch is made or an imbalance of DC voltage in the ditech Switcher all of your responses were carefully reported to com satin Harris for immediate follow-up they worked over the Easter weekend and now have 109 software in every site controller and are cleaning up critical items at 18 Affiliates today that's the current effort directed towards our landline timetable and getting this system off the ground as soon as the Comsat Harris work is done by Wednesday we will begin a six-step plan right away to reduce the number of hours of programming we feed into the landline Network and we hope to start doing this by the end of this week just as soon as each ground station has been remotely inspected by Sky path via your status return equipment here's a calendar for a week to show you the blocks of time we'll eliminate and here's our landline Network feeds in the eastern and in the central time zones you see the mountain Affiliates have been off landlines for a year now and the Pacific Affiliates have been off landlines for two months so we're going to keep all these landlines here for another few weeks while we gradually reduce the programming on them step one the weekday afternoon programs will not be fed on landlines and I will wire you on the Ain before each one of these steps happen step one could start this Thursday we can have confidence in going to step one because 22 of our k-man Affiliates have not had landlines during this time period for a year now the snms switching occurs only during station breaks at 1 pm and 4 or 4 30 PM New York time and we began switching your 1R feed during this time period back last March 22nd so nothing new is going to happen on step one not having landline backup during this period should not be a problem for anyone one note however and that is our New England friends up here air sectional commercials during this time period they're the only ones who do we started switching commercial Islands to them on April 3rd using both k-ban and landlines in parallel so attention you New England stations right here in Hartford Springfield Providence Boston Portland and Hanover be sure your k-band ground station is up to speed because the parallel landline operation will not be available in a few days step two next we will not feed tonight late night and sunrise to the landlines probably right after the NAB ends in Las Vegas like April 18th The Tonight Show has sectional commercials all over the country and the snms switching system will be used in full when we start step two again only minimal station switching is required for Sunrise and today in the morning and we've been doing that since March 22nd step three add Saturday and Sunday mornings to the no landline plan following that step four The Today Show and The Weekend morning block of programs will not be on landlines step 5 the prime time schedule not on landlines we're really rolling now and there's not much left for at T to watch anymore step six is when Sports and all is deleted when we get to steps two and three we'll be taking a hard look at disconnecting stations from the landline Network even before the next steps have occurred that's our plan and with your help we'll all be there in a week or two or three how can you help report troubles hounds Sky path if the troubles don't get fixed particularly u-7 stations in New England Bangor Boston Hanover Hartford Portland Providence and Springfield if you're working well the New England leg could be the first to go how can you help report troubles we have a new 800 number for you to call 1-800-nbc 6677 you'll automatically get routed into either New York or Burbank skypath depending on where you're calling from 1 800 NBC 6677 use it if you really need an emergency feed on the landlines call that number but we'll kill the feed as soon as you're back in business and one last thing if you want to keep your local ATT Channel after we disconnect the network call Hank at this number in New York the new at T tariff will be effective April 27th well thanks for your attention and help and we'll see you at the NAB [Music] talking to horizontal rate of all the stereo components the question was the RCA Exciter TTU excuse me 40 TTU e44 um what vintage is it if it's pretty new we had some discussions with RCA very recently they indicated that their latest generation of UHF exciters were going to be direct FM would work without a problem okay thank you for calling okay um an answer to the question about performing rights we 've got some more information while you were on there I'm going to go Eric the record companies pay the performers and the Eric small could you hang on just a minute the um ASCAP and BMI licenses of the stations are used for for that just like the Arctic records hi can I help you hold on hi there good how are you well not initially Joe and where are you now Joe oh my goodness last time I saw you you were at uh working for Howard in Phoenix right okay the question the question is will you be day parting and the answer to that Joe is that we will not be departing initially because we'll be playing a fairly a fairly short list it will be it will be a mid-range blend and will not try to go to small targets at night or at any other time now that that doesn't say we won't do a little bit at some point in the future we may we may find that it's it's convenient we have the research to do it but we'll try to stay in the center into the music they all like on a rotation that on a rotation that everyone can can live with the question was are we basically going to be using the ram research techniques and the answer is that that that technique which which is a particular method of Performing the music research will be one of the methods we use uh Joe we're concerned in this project we're concerned about some other studies that we have which indicate that there might be a phenomenon such as video burnout where the song is still good as you recall Joe with with ram we were able to tell the product cycle of the song how long it lasted and get it off when it was no longer popular in in the case of video we find studies which indicate that the video may burn out faster than the audio does so all the song is still good that the that the people may be tired of seeing the same the same pictures associated with it so we'll probably have to develop a different technique to check on that and some other some other aspects of it but that that basic technique is is the one used in almost all of these music research endeavors thanks thanks for thought it's good to talk to you okay bye well now that I know Joe's in Tampa I know where I'm going some weekends soon hi this is John path well that's that's a good question let me ask the second part first and remind me what the first part was how does how is it formatted how does one get in and out for commercials as I mentioned to one caller that was the last question we expected this was the first one we expected the the brakes are filled with a with a a selection um and and or promo material and or public service material so that there's something on the air at all times and you're simply cued inaudibly when it's time to take it you take it for as long as you want to run commercials and then and then rejoin the network we developed the system that that operated on about broadcasting system satellite service in such a way that literally there were with with a with a fixed format I don't want to say hundreds of options but there were numerous options so the the flex clock idea will be adapted to this programming so that you can pick and choose how many commercials you want to run where you want to break and and when you want to rejoin uh yeah you got a second question I think mm-hmm yes oh yes to get in and out at the top and bottom they are the question is would the station format their own open and close and the answer to that is yes our our programming is going to be without disc jockeys without uh without anything other than Graphics Graphics to to describe or to name the title and artist of the of the tune and possibly promote ahead within the half hour we will not be doing uh anything other than the videos beyond that now your options at the station and I you said you were an independent UHF your options at the station are unlimited you can you can turn it on after you go home at night and just let it run with a with a machine to throw in station breaks or if you prefer to uh to you can go hire personalities or get the radio personalities to do to do picture overs over the intros where so so you literally can then customize the way you use the program in your particular market and I imagine that there are a number of stations like yourself that will have numbers of ideas of how to use it okay thanks for calling well that was the first question we expected to get I think we've got about um uh seven or eight minutes left and I um the number to call is on the screen the phone is open right now as you see we're using one line and it's live so when it it's time to call it's time to call Eric any uh thoughts we're getting sort of to the wrap-up phase here let me take this one hi this is John Patton okay why don't you take Eric first and then I'll take a sip of water and then you can come back to me okay hang on here sorry hi okay the question is what's the peak deviation on the sap the second audio program Channel and we'll narrow band FMS be permitted in the areas uh in the buffer zones between the sub carriers I'll answer the second question first uh no nothing will be permitted no additional uh sub carriers will be permitted if you are complying with the btsc standards that is if you have a sub carrier a pilot carrier at H it was quite a job to squeeze the existing signals into the subcarrier with that serious beat product problems and any additional subcarriers would probably wreck a lot of havoc on the deviation I have here in front of me the FCC the recommendations that were made by the btsc to the FCC and I think the number is 4 40 kilohertz but I will check in fact why don't you talk to John Patton with um here it is the modulation of the oral carrier by the second audio program shall comply plus or minus 15 kilohertz deviation is the number hang on let me give you to give you to John hi the the the question is how will the station that we select in a particular Market be be determined in case we have three or four that want the service and the answer to that is strictly on the basis of of the number of hours that they're willing to clear and the uh and the amount that they're willing to uh to pay for the service uh we we don't necessarily think it has to be uh exclusive we think that there might be cases where a particular station may want to run it on Friday and Saturday nights late and another station might want to run at a different time period entirely so we're open to discussion with you on that it will not be based on the strength of the station alone it will be based more on the the question of how much you're willing to clear and what we feel the

Fav4gsfqAzM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fav4gsfqAzM | WA Legislative Joint Sitting - 25 November 2020 | Honourable members, the President and the Speaker! Good morning. Members, this joint sitting has been called to choose a person to hold the place in the Senate of the Commonwealth of Australia rendered vacant by the resignation of Senator Hon Mathias Cormann, notification of which has been reported to this Parliament by His Excellency the Governor, Hon Kim Beazley, AC. I now call for nominations to fill the vacancy. Premier. Madam President. I propose that Benjamin John Small of 2/94 Mackie Street, Victoria Park, Western Australia, being a person who is eligible to be chosen pursuant to section 15 of the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia, as amended, be chosen to hold the vacant place in the Senate of the Parliament of the Commonwealth created by the resignation of Hon Mathias Cormann. I advise that I have Mr Small’s assurance that if chosen, he is willing to act. Premier, would you like to make some comments? Thank you, Madam President and Mr Speaker. I start by thanking you and the parliamentary staff for arranging the joint sitting of Parliament here today. It is a rare pleasure for us to all sit jointly with our colleagues from the other place—one that I am sure we are all enjoying! This is just the twenty-second time that the Western Australian Parliament has had a joint sitting to appoint a new senator to fill a casual vacancy. My staff assured me that it was a rarity, but I thought that 22 sounded like quite a lot. The first I attended was to appoint Senator Ross Lightfoot to a senatorial position in 1997. We promise that unlike the unpleasant business last time we met to fill a Senate vacancy, members of the Assembly will behave themselves today. This Senate vacancy has been caused by the retirement of federal Minister for Finance, Mathias Cormann. Mathias served his state in the Senate from 2007 and in the federal cabinet since 2013, under three Prime Ministers during his time in cabinet. In fact, he was the only minister to hold the same portfolio in cabinet since the election of the current government in 2013. Aside from a few spats around the border, I found Mathias great to work with. He had a great desire to work collaboratively, to solve problems and to ensure that Western Australia kept moving forward. Mathias assisted the state government greatly with funding for Metronet projects around the city. He recognised our mandate, and that was an excellent example of his pragmatism. He also assisted me and the Minister for Transport greatly with funding road projects in the city and all over regional Western Australia. We worked together on city deals, which I suppose was his last major achievement for Western Australia, and we will see that come to fruition over coming years. I also thank Mathias for his work on the campaign to get a better outcome on the goods and services tax, with which we were very successful. I note that Mathias is currently travelling around Europe as part of his Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development campaign. I see him on Facebook regularly meeting with heads of state and important people across Europe. I understand he is going to travel around the world doing the same thing, seeking the presidency of the OECD. Mathias Cormann’s story is a great one. He became a citizen of Australia only 20 years ago and he spent 13 of those years as an Australian citizen serving the nation in the Senate. That is a remarkable Australian story. I wish him all the best in his future endeavours and all the best with his campaign for the OECD, and all the best to his family, as I am sure we all do. Earlier this month, the Liberal Party of Western Australia convened to select a replacement for Mathias and it selected Benjamin John Small. Ben has had a pretty full Western Australian experience. He has lived and worked in regional Western Australia. He has worked in the marine sector of our state’s oil and gas industry—he advised me just a moment ago that it was for Woodside Energy. He has volunteered as an ambulance driver for 10 years and he is the co-owner of Small’s Bar, a small bar in Eaton. Ben, 14 years ago under a former government, I introduced legislation for small bars, which was passed. I did not know anyone would take the name “small bar” so literally! At just 32 years of age, it is quite an achievement to be selected to become a senator. In the United States, senators often occupy their roles until they are 100 years of age, so Ben has 68 years ahead of him! The Senate is an important institution to the nation. I note that Ben Small has had a long interest in the Senate and in public life and the means by which people are elected. We wish Benjamin Small well in his future endeavours in Canberra. I am sure he will rise to the demands of public service well and I am sure he will never forget his responsibility to the great state of Western Australia. Ben, all the very best. Members, I now give the call to the Leader of the Opposition. Mr Zak Kirkup. Thank you very much, Madam President. I rise on behalf of the opposition to second the nomination put forward by the Premier to send Benjamin John Small to the Senate in the commonwealth Parliament. It is a pleasure to join Legislative Council members here today. I assure them that the Assembly members will be out of here as quickly as possible and we will leave the chamber in a relatively tidy fashion, if we can. The Premier very comprehensively went through the history and service of former Senator Mathias Cormann. On behalf of the Liberal Party, I would like to advise the chamber a little more about Ben Small. Ben has had an impressive career as an executive with a major resource industry, while co-creating a highly successful small business. He has practical knowledge of both the North West Shelf and the south west region. He has an impressive record of continuous community service, starting from his days at school. Ben’s father was a mine manager and his mother, Heather—a very good person who resides in my district—comes from a south west farming family. Ben grew up in the goldfields and later in Bunbury. He graduated from Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School in 2005 with a TER of 99.75, a general merit and citizenship award from his school and the commonwealth Australian students certificate of excellence. In 2005, he was the City of Bunbury’s Young Citizen of the Year and won the Western Australian Young Citizen of the Year active achievement award. In 2009, he graduated from the University of Tasmania’s Australian Maritime College with an Advanced Diploma of Applied Science (Nautical Science) and followed that up in 2012 with a Bachelor of Applied Science in marine operations. For both degrees he was dux of his class, with citations to the University of Tasmania’s Australian Maritime College roll of excellence, winning prizes for the best overall performance and for the highest academic achievement for an undergraduate student. A qualified master mariner, Ben served from 2013 to 2017 as chief officer and operations manager of Farstad shipping before working successfully with Woodside Energy Ltd as marine operations superintendent, marine operations manager and marine manager. He has held responsibility for the safe and reliable support of Woodside’s offshore petroleum assets and marketing and export activities, heading a team of 24 FTEs. Ben has worked offshore for seven years for an essential Western Australian resource industry. As the Premier said, Ben has been the owner of a small bar since 2017. He is the co-founder and joint owner of Small’s Bar in Eaton, which showcases local produce and employs 35 people, some of whom come from very diverse backgrounds. It has been a highly successful and innovative business. Small’s Bar is cashless. Customers pay by tap and go and no tip is required because the owners of Small’s Bar believes that people already receive good service when they go to such a fine establishment as their bar. I have been there a number of times. As the Premier said, Ben has given back to the south west community since 2009 as a volunteer ambulance driver, a volunteer development officer with St John Ambulance at Australind and, more recently, he was based in East Bunbury, with an overseas development mission to Timor–Leste as well. From 2005 until 2015, Ben was a skipper, trainee officer and committee member of Bunbury Sea Rescue, playing a major role in training and fundraising for Bunbury’s $600 000 primary response vessel. From 2015 until 2017, he was the inaugural secretary for a not-for-profit networking organisation called the South West Young Professionals. For the last eight years, Ben Small has been a most active member of the Liberal Party in Western Australia as a campaigner, a booth captain, a fundraiser and a community forum participant. He was president of the Bunbury branch from 2015 to 2017 and he has been president of the Forrest division since 2017. As we are now nominating a 32-year-old to the Senate, on behalf of the state of Western Australia, it gives me great honour to second the nomination via the President. It is not lost on me, as a 33-year-old, and I call Ben my friend, that we are seeing a new generation of participants within the elected offices of the Liberal Party in Western Australia go on to serve not only their communities, but also the state more broadly. I have known Ben for some time. His nickname is “Captain” because of his extensive maritime experience. All who know him know that he is a good support, a good friend and someone we can always rely on. Whenever we have a concern or we need any support or friendship, we can rely on him and call him our friend and our captain. He comes to us today with his rich personal experience that I think reflects the south west, the Liberal Party and a new generation. Ben, you are my friend. I know you will stand up for us as mates and I know that you will stand up for the great state of Western Australia. It gives me great pleasure to second Ben’s nomination to the Senate. Does any member wishes to speak to the nomination? The Honourable Steve Thomas. Madam President, thanks to the opportunity I—Do you want me to go down there? Oh yes please if you would stand down there. Thank you, Madam President, for the opportunity to make a few remarks on behalf of the South West Region of Western Australia, the region where Benjamin John Small, or Ben, as we know him, or occasionally “Captain” or a few other names, made his start in life. His academic record has been relived. What failed to be mentioned was that he started his life as dux much earlier in the Adam Road Primary School. He showed potential during his primary school days all the way through to where he is today. As members said, he moved on to Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School. I believe he was also the Bunbury Young Citizen of the Year for his contribution to the community, particularly in the sea rescue area in Bunbury. Madam President, It is a difficult process to get young people interested in politics today. Ben Small was introduced to the Liberal Party in the south west on the recommendation of a businessman and adopted by a couple of the great characters of the Liberal Party in the south west. I give particular reference here to Findlay Osborn, the champion of the Liberal Party in Bunbury, who introduced Ben to us at a time when I think I had started being the Forrest division president, a role that Ben took over after me. He has done a magnificent job. He has learnt much in politics and he brings much to the political sphere. He has been a champion for the south west. He will be a champion for Western Australia and that is what we need in the Senate going forward. He will look after the regions because the regions are in his blood, and we will make sure that that happens. He has volunteered his time. He cares about the community. There is much that we might say about our history, of course, but it is a bit like fight club: what goes on on long trips stays on long trips. Ben will a champion for this state. I am pleased that we got him involved in the Liberal Party. From the perspective of the south west and the Forrest division, I am pleased that he will be in the Senate. Might I say that the south west would be a lovely place to have a senatorial office; we will see how we go. I thank the members of the other place for rising to the occasion and joining us in the upper house. I had great plans for Ben Small. I had hoped that he would play a great role in politics, perhaps by even becoming a member of the Legislative Council, but I guess we will have to make do with the Senate, Ben. Does any member wish to speak to the nomination. The Member for Moore. If you would please. Thank you Madam President, I do not want to detain members for very long. On behalf of the Nationals WA, I wish to thank retiring Senator Mathias Cormann for his work for the state of Western Australia and for the nation more broadly. I congratulate Ben Small on his imminent appointment to the Senate. I wish him all the very best into the future and I look forward to him representing Western Australia with a certain degree of gusto, thank you. Members, are there any further nominations? There being no other nominations, I declare Benjamin John Small of 2/94 Mackie Street, Victoria Park, Western Australia the person chosen to hold the place vacated by Senator Hon Mathias Cormann.

YjkCJZxnWFg | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjkCJZxnWFg | I Can't Believe I Found This in a Thrift Store! (Worth $500+) | no way I've just found a pair of Nike Shox these things sell for 100 bucks look that's my comp right there they're only 25 I think this is a steal we've also got the silver and pinks as well there's two of them they should both go for about 90 bucks and oh no way look at that would you look at that I've also got a pair of Air Max 95s these should go farewell pretty much 100 as well let's call it 250 for 75 span so the aim of this video today is to try and find 30 items that we can sell for a profit on eBay it's what I do full time and I think 30 would be a pretty cool haul now I've already found what I deem to be one of the best finds I've ever had it was the first store that I went in I found a few other goodies that I've shown you guys already but this find I'm gonna save it for the end of the video please stick around for it it's a 0.001 chance I reckon an absolutely impossible find so I'll save that for the end let's get back into the next one [Music] this was definitely a nostalgic find for myself I'm an AFL guy I love the Brisbane Lions and back in 1997 when these toys first came out I was just a little seven-year-old so these were really cool to see we've got Aleister Lynch we've got Craig Lambert here as well and we've got Michael Voss three people that I idolize so these toys I definitely had when I was growing up but I hadn't seen playing them for a good 20 years since now they're all going for four dollars I actually had eight sets of the same player individually on eBay these things are selling for about fifteen to twenty dollars so I think I might be able to sell them for about 45 but I wanted to see them if I could get a bit cheaper yeah lovely and we've got another box out the back if you even need more oh do you really yeah we do yeah how many more do you need Thanks James looks like a few gotcha yeah for sure these two bought how many are there it was one two three four five six in a box six in the box so another 12 so that's 38 and two bucks so all right yep you sound good this was a pretty crazy DVD find winners and losers the full six seasons a complete series set it sells for a good hundred dollars and I was wrapped to find this one for just the 13 bucks I've also got another Golden Rule when it comes to DVDs don't buy anything that doesn't make you profit and that was certainly the case with this one I don't touch this stuff not gonna touch the stuff make sure you stick around because I've got a little bit more of a story with regards to This Heart of Dixie DVD I'm gonna go ahead and pick it up for six dollars for very good reason Twilight Zone I've also got this as well we've got season five it's brand new and sealed just the eight dollars that one turns into about 30 bucks so that was a great little turnaround and I've got some video games down here as well the first one here this was actually brand new and sealed on the PS4 and that one goes for about 45 bucks so I'm pretty stoked to pick that up for three and then the Order 1886 as well doesn't go for too much money just I think about 12 to 13 but I just couldn't say no they were the only PS4 games in store I moved into the next category and we're looking at some hats and guys you know how much I love my hats I've been able to find some absolute crackers here in McTavish surfboards it's a very good local Byron Bay surf brand here in Australia four dollars for this one here I should be able to convert that for about 30. I found a second one hiding on the floor here as well so really good brand make sure you're finding it the hats can turn around for some great money on eBay this one here as well Los Hermanos Hala you wouldn't believe the comps on this one guys going for pre-owned around about 50 to 80 dollars you heard that correctly and I'm just paying the three dollars for it here in storm now I found this to be fascinating we've got the Heart of Dixie here seasons one to four is a complete set I've picked up season two I've paid six dollars now here in Australia it goes for some pretty decent money right I'm around sort of 70 to 90 dollars in pre-owned condition but what I found fascinating was it has spiked dramatically over in the US uh season three granted I've got season two but season three especially I'm not sure the reason as to why it was selling for two to three hundred dollars in pre-owned condition it must be a really hard DVD and a very sought after DVD to be found in the US point that I'm trying to make here is don't always just rely on the comps you're seeing within your own country have a look uh elsewhere if you're doing the international postage because it might be worth a little bit more somewhere else that's where we're going next still sourcing my balls merchandise whenever I see it [Applause] this sack Levine basketball jersey as a ripper I think it's pretty genuine as well and I'm paying just the five bucks I've also got this one as well a higher State Buckeyes this was in pretty decent condition it was a men's extra large so I'm gonna go ahead and pick that up as well don't anticipate a huge turnaround for it but just still happy to get my hands on it I've also picked up a pair of shoes here as well we've got the Nike metcons very much a staple for me when I'm Outsourcing my shoes so to find these for a well a pretty decent price there I'm happy to go ahead with the purchase on those I've also got these Nike Revolution running shoes as well just 12 bucks for a pair of Nikes I'll take that any single day of the week so that was also another really good grab so two pairs of shoes also picked up a g-star watch here as well wasn't sure about this one don't really plan to watch game too much but I know that g-star is a good brand it was only eight dollars and that was looking pretty good to me so hopefully some good money foreign [Music] jerseys this was a genuine one love the look of this one um but unfortunately the price tag on it was simply horrendous actually the entire stall was horrendously priced 25 there were shirts for 20 there were jumpers for 30. I didn't get out of there to everybody who's watching don't buy it I'm out this day is just getting better and better I was gonna go into the next thrift store and in the end I've actually had to Dart off to go and pick something up on Facebook Marketplace I've just seen this pop up it's only been up for two minutes which is always the case with the best buys and the other thing is you kind of have to go and get it right away before somebody else you know wants to pay a bit more to get their hands on it so this guy has agreed to the price it's a crazy find I'm gonna go and grab it right now and we'll save that as well for the end of the video because I'm gonna need some time to dig through it yeah all right let's go grab it away after the game stuff yeah cool so that's that box there sweet now here I was thinking I was picking up an Xbox bundle with a hundred games but he also had this as well it was a Nintendo 2DS console it was fully boxed up and it had an additional 60 games he wanted 250 bucks for it and I couldn't say no good night apprecially should be 500. anyways that's great more than I thought I'd come for yeah I was going to offer it before you left and I was like ah showing me gets here yeah yeah for sure damn so just like that guys 500 has been spent pretty crazy I couldn't pass up the Nintendo DS bundle it was 60 odd games a good console and it was boxed as well so I should be able to get 150 bucks I would imagine for the console which means that I was in my head by paying a hundred dollars for 60 games which seemed like a no-brainer as well so 500 spent two console bundles secured uh but I've got to get back home and sift through it all pull out the games that are worth a bit of money hopefully the Xbox bundles have got one or two rippers in there from an individual game perspective but I'll take you through all of that at the end as well as what I've always wanted to do with this video show you my number one find stick around foreign pair of shoes the Nike Air Max 270s 25 it was just the color tone of those that made me pass they just seemed a little bit dirty now these were a really good pair of shoes as well 30 bucks for a pair of combat boots I had to leave them behind though I saw these these were an awesome pair of shoes but it was the sole the sole was the concern they felt like they might have been a bit slippery it was a pretty good day for shoes though because these Nike element 87s go for some fantastic money as well I'm paying just the 15 and they should convert into about a hundred so they also seem like a bit of a no-brainer and the shoe finds just kept on coming these were the Adidas Ultra boost women's running shoes they're actually a fantastic pair of shoes to be finding the resale value on these is always good but the sell-through rate is pretty decent as well just a 10 purchase price that's pretty cheap for my area I should be able to sell them for about 45. here's a great brand as well Meryl I didn't actually end up going with the purchase of these but these were the Moab mids and uh look there was a 15 price point on them kind of regret not going ahead the reason why I said no wasn't based on condition it was just the size that you're seeing there a six men's was a little bit small that's the only reason I put it back on the Shelf this one here Cake Boss season eight and season nine collection one uh they both go for about 15 bucks a piece brand new and sealed as well that always helps things they only cost me a dollar fifty on a half price so that was pretty good if you're doing your books babysitters club is a good one to be fine mining I don't do a lot of books myself so much so that I actually left this one back on the Shelf but that does convert into about 50 not bad either all right guys we are back home now and uh I've just spent the last or 45 minutes just going through the Xbox 360 bundle there are a lot of games to sift through as well as the obviously the console and the connect system as well and I've looked everything out I've got some price points here's what we're looking at all right so first of all the console itself is pretty much in like new condition it is immaculate it's got all the inner casings as well check this out it's an absolute Beauty it's got the manual in there it's got the controller that I don't think's ever been played with and it's got all of the cables in there as well now this is an Xbox 360 slim console it should go for about 150 as it is um so that thing is an absolute ripping start and obviously when I saw the box in the listing I knew that it was going to get a few more bucks because that's what usually happens with uh with regards to the video game category original boxes just always help the value now this one here as well also came with the original box I've got the connect sensor on the Xbox 360 plus three connect games that go along with it I'm going to do this as a separate bundle and that one should work out to being worth about fifty dollars so 50 plus 150 here that's 200 remember we paid 250 bucks for it um so that's really good and then over here we've got the games I've gone through every single one of them all of these games here no surprises they're all going for pretty much less than twelve dollars so I'm just going to go ahead and put them with a bundle in here and I might list that up for 250 dollars and that would be pretty much getting my money back and that would mean that all of this is going to be profit so all of this here these are the games that are worth fifteen dollars or more now there was one real winner in the mix and that was Lord of the Rings this one here the Lego Lord of the Rings it was going for about 25 to 30 dollars uh it's complete with a mint disc so that's awesome actually the majority of these games all had manuals with them which does help the resale value but all of these games here go for fifteen dollars a piece and that means that that's worth 250 dollars alone right there here's some bundles of that I pulled out as well we've got the Halo set here that I can sell for fifty dollars we've got a Borderlands uh three Pete here that we can sell as a triple pack that goes for about 40 to 50 and then this one here um these as a bit of a bundle goes for about 25 as well so 25 50 50. maybe 125 and then we've got 250 there so maybe 375. so 375 plus 50 is about 425 dollars takeoff fees take off postage I think we should be able to double our money we should be able to make about 250 on this lot there's obviously a fair bit of work involved to get that 200 to 250 dollars worth of profits by no means a simple quick and easy exercise you do need to go and sort of work through all of these games one by one to work out your price then you've got to spend all the time to list them up and then you've got to ship them off as well so it does take a bit of time to generate that money but buying big video allotments like this is certainly the way to go about it I'm only halfway through though because I've got another set down here for the Nintendo DS so I'm going to do the exact same process and we're going to see which what that works out to as well now as this Nintendo 2DS bundle I'm actually surprised at how good it is there's a lot of good games in here and this thing is in like new condition literally the plastic cover is still on it so I can list that up in light new condition I'm going to go ahead and List It with every single one of these games there's about 40 odd games here now there was a comp for this uh box with its box plus six games for 180 now I've obviously got to be a hell of a lot more games than that so I'm thinking maybe something like 300 and we'll see how we go with those the rest of them though are individual games and there's a couple of winners in here Monster High 13 Wishes that's actually worth about 35 bucks and it's almost the best of the bunch you also had Super Mario Brothers as well that one's always a standard winner that goes for about 30 but every single one of these other games here we're all going for an average sale price of twenty dollars so I have a bit of a scan through those and and put a few of them in the memory bank because they are good ones to be finding I've got a couple of bundles here as well we've got Drawn to Life there's a two set there that I could do for about 20 to 20 25 and then we've got this one here as well which I thought was kind of cool Combat of Giants Dinosaurs and mutant insects so again about 25 for that set so say 50 there plus all of this Believe It or Not guys all of these games individually all added up works out to 400 so we've got 300 here we've got four hundred dollars here there's potentially 700 worth of value and I paid 250 dollars so I think this is an absolute actually to be honest better then all of that 360. but as good as all of that is I've got the best item of the day it's right here it was an unbelievable find a paid 25 for it and it came out of the first store that I was in today it's a piece of clothing it's a very cool piece of clothing have a look at this we have a vintage Adidas i1 I can all over print this is a tennis sweater from the 19 I think it's 1988 uh completely genuine I I just love the look of it when I first saw it I didn't know anything about it there's some pretty crazy embroidery I want I can on the back of it as well it's a size large it's a men's size large all the tags told me that this thing was completely genuine uh it's um it's even got the inner tag here underneath uh there it is there you can see the Adidas right there so look I had to do some research on this I wasn't sure I was going to be buying it for 25 no matter what but then when I did my research I was blown away by how much these things are actually worth they are incredibly hard to find and there are multiple comps going on uh Etsy for about 500 to 600 I think there are a couple that had sold for about 580 bucks now I was blown away by that I thought there might have been some money into it but not as much as that and if I can get around 500 for this it will no doubt be one of the best fines that I have ever found to be able to find this in a thrift store is just ridiculous because the second it hits the Shelf is the second it walks out the door and I got to the checkout and the lady behind the counter said that she herself had just put that onto the clothing rack and sure enough two minutes later I walk in and I was able to pick this guy up we'll shoot for the stars we'll list it up for about 550 and hope to get about 500 for it fingers crossed we can turn this one around in a pretty quick space of time but what a fine unbelievable it really is the thrill of the hunt guys that was a lot of fun today so much purchased I'm going to leave you with a video right here which was another one in a million thrift store find that I was able to pick up just a few weeks ago appreciate you tuning into this one guys I'm gonna get listing we'll see you soon | The Aussie Flipper | UC-GfooZBv2_IEGxhv4SoleQ | 2023-01-04 | Creative Commons Attribution

suAitE2-5s4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suAitE2-5s4 | Homily - Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year B) | Hello everyone Today we continue our journey through the gospel of Mark. Last week, we learned that Jesus went to his hometown, Nazareth, and preached in the synagogue in a way that astonished the people, who nevertheless rejected Him outright. And Jesus was amazed at their lack of faith and did not perform any miracles there except for curing a few sick people by laying His hands on them. Even though Jesus and His message would be largely rejected by His own people, He willed that His mission on the earth should be continued. Therefore, one day Jesus summoned "the Twelve". Mark refers to the twelve as "apostles" when they report back to Jesus from their trip, Mark (6:30). The same twelve are also frequently called the "disciples" in the gospels. There is very little difference between the way these two words - "apostle" and "disciple" - are used in the Bible, but for one small distinction. A "disciple" refers to a follower of Jesus and His teachings, whereas an "apostle" refers to an "emissary" or a "preacher" who helps in spreading Jesus' teachings. The word "apostle" is derived from the Greek word apostolos, which means "one sent forth". So, we can say that all apostles were disciples but all disciples were not apostles. Jesus had already chosen these twelve as His disciples and had taken them with Him wherever He went, so that He might purify, refine, and enrich their lives; and that He might prepare them to be His witnesses to their world and beyond, Mark (3:13-15). Knowing that the time had come for them to go out on their own and preach the gospel, "Jesus called the twelve and sent them out two by two". He sent out the disciples in pairs, rather than individually, partly because of the Jewish tradition of "two witnesses." The Old Testament law stipulates that at least two witnesses are needed in order to convict someone of a crime, Deuteronomy (19:15). In the case of Jesus sending His disciples, two by two, this underscores the idea that two witnesses are more reliable than one. So, when they go out to proclaim the gospel, they would be more likely to receive a hearing. Another reason was to help them to support one another and work together toward a shared goal. As Jesus sent them out, He gave them authority, the one tool they needed above all else to complete the task at hand. Until now, Jesus had exercised His divine authority over natural elements, diseases, demons, sin and even death. By now, He equipped His disciples with the same authority because He was sending them out do the same things He was doing. Especially and specifically, He "gave them authority over unclean spirits", Mark (6:7). In Judaism, an "unclean spirit", or a "demon" or a "devil" or "an evil spirit" are used interchangeably in the same sense. Unclean spirits are messengers of Satan, the enemy of God and, therefore, enemies of the gospel of Jesus Christ. They are not only wicked themselves, they delight in wickedness and promote wickedness in humans. So, the authority given by Jesus was not just meant to cast out demons, and to heal every kind of disease and sickness, but also to enable them to deal with all of the challenges of everyday life, with peace and confidence, Luke (9:1); Matthew (10:1). After giving them the authority, Jesus also gave them some instructions to follow. His first instruction involved what to take and what not to take for the journey. They were to take no food, no bag, no money, or spare clothes. They were to take along almost nothing except a walking stick and a pair of sandals. Imagine! Jesus was sending His disciples into a hostile world to preach the kingdom of God and He forbade them to take along even the basic necessities, such as their food. Why did Jesus tell them to take nothing? In his commentary on the Gospel of Mark, William Barclay, a theologian, explains it this way. In the time of Jesus, a Jew in Palestine ordinarily wore five articles of dress: Chiton or Tunic - a long innermost layer of clothing, usually linen, reaching all the way down to the ankles; Himation - an outer garment which was used as a cloak by day and as a blanket by night; Girdle, meaning "belt" which was worn around waist. The two garments could be hitched up under the girdle for work or for running; Head dress - a piece of cotton or linen folded and then placed on the head to protect head, face, and neck from sunburn; Sandals - flat soles of leather, wood or matted grass; The bag or sack can mean either a travellers' bag made of the skin of an animal, which a pilgrim or a shepherd used to carry his food or, a collecting bag, which priests and devotees used when they went out to collect contributions for their temple or their gods. According to Barclay, if the first meaning is taken, Jesus wanted his disciples not to take supplies for the road, but rather depend on God and the kindness of others for all they required. If the second meaning is taken, Jesus meant that his disciples must not be like the rapacious priests. They must go about giving and not getting. Barclay also points out two other interesting Jewish customs: According to rabbinic law, a man must leave all his ordinary things, such as shoes, money, staff, girdle etc. outside before entering a temple or a holy place. It may well be that Jesus wanted His disciples to treat every house they enter as a holy place. In Judaism, hospitality is deemed a sacred duty. One must keep his house open to strangers. The Old Testament mention several instances of hospitality exercised by the patriarchs. In the Midrash, a Jewish literature, we learn that Abraham always kept all four sides of his tent open, so that he could let any passing stranger know that he or she was a potential guest. The Book of Genesis tells of one such occasion. One day Abraham was sitting at the entrance to his tent when three strangers approached. He rushed out to greet them and welcome them to his home. He invited them to wash their feet and to rest under the trees. They graciously accepted Abraham's hospitality. Abraham then asked his wife to prepare bread and his servant boy to prepare a calf, Genesis (18:2-3). So, we can see that there are several reasons why Jesus directed his disciples not to take anything for the trip. First of all, and practically speaking, it was important to travel light and not to be weighed down with the "non-essentials" which may only require more attention. The more things they would carry, the more they would have to worry about, the slower they could travel, and the more time and energy would have to be devoted to those things rather than to their preaching and healing mission. Secondly, Jesus wanted his apostles to live a life of simplicity and of poverty, that is, having what they needed, but not more. Thirdly, Jesus wanted His apostles to learn to trust and depend on God for all of their needs. Then, perhaps as a reminder for the disciples of possibly being rejected, such as that which Jesus had faced in Nazareth, He further instructed his disciples if they found a house willing to accept them, they should stay there until they were ready to leave. And if anyone did not welcome them or refused even to listen to them, then they should "shake the dust off their feet" as they left, in testimony against them. "Shake the dust off your feet" seems to some extent rude and disrespectful. Elsewhere, Jesus commands His disciples to wash the dirt of others' feet as an act of love, John (13:4-17). But here He commanded His disciples to "shake the dust off their feet" to signify contempt and separation. What are we to understand by Jesus' instruction? In Scripture, the word "dust" has several figurative and symbolic meanings, but one thing stands out. God made man from the dust of the earth and so shall he return to dust upon death, Genesis (2:7, 3:19). In the Old Testament times, people would often cover themselves in dust as a sign of mourning or repentance, Joshua (7:6); 2 Samuel (1:2, 15:32); Job (2:12); Nehemiah (9:1). God calls Israel, through the prophet Isaiah, to "shake off your dust" and to "rise up", Isaiah (52:2). All these verses convey the meaning of "the fallen, sinful, and lost condition of mankind". According to rabbinic law, the dust of a Gentile or foreign land was considered defiled and unclean. So, Jews were to "shake off" any dust or dirt from Gentile lands when entering or returning to Palestine. Given the prevalent attitudes of the time, Jesus was perhaps suggesting to his disciples that if the Jewish hearers refused to listen to them or rejected the gospel, then, they should treat them in the manner that a rigid Jew would treat a Gentile land. "Shaking the dust off one's feet", is the same as saying "I wash my hands off it." Therefore, shaking the dust off the feet is a symbolic indication that one has done all that can be done in a situation and, therefore, carries no further responsibility for it. Here, Jesus was making it very clear that the apostles' job was only to preach the gospel faithfully and carefully but the listeners were responsible for what they did with it. On their first missionary journey, Paul and Barnabas put Jesus' words into practice in Antioch. When the Jews stirred up resistance against their preaching and expelled them from the region, the apostles shook the dust from their feet, in protest against those people, Acts (13:14, 50-51). Mark concludes by noting that the twelve went off and preached repentance, cast out demons, and anointed with oil those who were sick, Mark (6:12-13). It clarifies what Jesus might have told them. They were to preach repentance, the same message that John the Baptist and Jesus preached and then, they were to cast out demons and heal the sick, Mark (1:4, 15). What is the message for us? Today's gospel makes each one of us conscious of the fact that, first and foremost, we are all disciples of Jesus. As disciples of Jesus Christ, we are called to live according to the teachings of Jesus: to love one another, John (13:34-35), to take up our cross daily and to follow him, Luke (9:23). Part of being a disciple of Jesus is making disciples. Hence, even though none of us can qualify as an apostle in the strict sense of the term, like the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, Acts (4:36; 9:29; 15:2, 22) and Saint Paul, Acts (14:4, 14) or even Saint Barnabas, Acts (13:1-3) whose apostleship was unique, we are still called to continue the work of the apostles, in the present times. Through baptism and other sacraments, we are joined with Christians everywhere to be with Jesus Christ and to represent Him and His message in the world. We are sent out as ambassadors of Christ to proclaim the Gospel of hope and salvation. We are sent in the same way Jesus was sent by God, the Father. Jesus says, "As my Father has sent me, even so I send you", John (20:21). Not only does Jesus send us to preach the gospel but gives us the power to defeat Satan and all evil spirits and, provides the resources we need to accomplish our task. His divine power gives us everything we need for life, 2 Peter (1:3). There is nothing God sends us to do or expects of us as His disciples, that we cannot do through the power of our Lord Jesus Christ. We shall, therefore, with confidence, step out to: Preach "repentance". Let us tell others including our families and friends, both young and old, of constant need for reform and conversion or transformation in our personal lives and in society. Let us encourage them to repent of their sins, both moral or grave sins and venial or small sins to which we are so much habituated, such as feelings of resentment, anger, retaliation, vengeance, selfishness, envy, bitterness, gossip, lying, stealing etc. Fight against all forms of evil in the world, particularly in our families. God has given every part of the gospel of Jesus Christ unto us and unto our children and, thus, has given every one of us the gift of apostleship - to teach one another the gospel of Christ and lead one another in light and truth. Our Lord Jesus' desire for us, as His disciples, is that we keep His commandments. So, just as the Lord directed the people of Israel, He wants us to "set our own houses in order", 2 Kings (20:1-2) in His way by employing His attributes of righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness. When we do things pleasing to the Lord, no matter how evil the world becomes, our families can be at peace. Lay hands on people, particularly the sick, to bless and heal them. Jesus has commanded us to heal the sick, Matthew (10:8). He did not tell us to pray for the sick. He never prayed, "Father, heal this man." Instead, when someone came to Jesus for healing, He simply put His hands on them and healed them with a spoken Word. The apostles and early Christians healed sick people in the same manner. They had the authority to heal, and they exercised it with a spoken word, just as Jesus did. Although Jesus performs many miracles of healing, it is disappointing that we do not, today, see healings such as those that occurred in the time of the Apostles. The reason is we often only pray for healing; we do not command them to be healed. It does not mean prayer can't heal people or prayer does not work. Saint James exhorts us to offer prayers for healing, James (5:14-16). So, we can pray for the sick. At the same time, we can heal the sick using the authority that Jesus has given us. But we cannot exercise the authority unless we are under authority of God. This implies that we must hear God, and then obey Him and give commands for healing because the power of healing is wholly in Jesus. Last but not least, let us leave behind anything that would hold us back or slow us down, such as shame, fear, pride, procrastination, attachment to things etc. and do everything we can to reach those to whom God sends us. But when they reject us, they are, in essence, rejecting Christ and His message. At those moments, let us not leave with anger or hatred or self-righteousness but with a feeling of contentment that we have carried out our responsibility faithfully and with a prayer for those who rejected God's offer of salvation.

showing up here any minute now there we go all right let's see I'll be my usual guy sure doesn't matter oh you're gone there you are yep ready to cook something you're gonna be the dragon not that yeah okay all right Sam what do you want camping okay backpacks check tensed bed rolls check okay let's get ready to see the outdoors we'll be sitting by the campfire eating some juice just s'mores and cooked breakfast all prepare bar for brand new woodland theme chefs can't fire cook ops available he would give marshmallows well syllabary chefs as you well know the onion culinary Council didn't take to account to my experimental cooking oh all right all right so by using an ancient yield to raise a diabolical horde of unread huh but I've cooked up a glorious idea to impact their favorite and hangs off a reel of the kingdom with you're right of course my friends boat it certainly is not foolish foolproof is what I would say acclaimed culinarians I've joined the cookie Scouts what it's genius this way I shall prove my work I shall manifest many inner layers yeah and what better way to attempt the renowned trail mix trail an expedition no cookie Crusader takes on lightly with your scrumptious skills we will conquer this challenge and be back in the onion Kingdom by teatime so let's begin our journey happy campers let's cook up a forest feast [Music] interesting all right s'mores combined marshmallow cooked marshmallow chopped fillings and crackers add chopped wood to the fire to keep the heat going all right so well somebody made it go away I didn't see what was going on all right the marshmallows you guys have the marshmallows right or the marshmallows okay so those have to be cooked on the fire great cook that no not the cookie not the cookie just the marshmallow gets cooked all right give me another marshmallow cook please no okay go for it marshmallows cooked OOP alright there's your tongues back and I need chocolate and that one goes away needs a plate where the plates are as I need a plea alright if you give me a plate I could sell this that marshmallows not done yet alright give me another give me another marshmallow - give me another marshmallow - cut and I need a plate I need all the plates over here in the middle all right I need another marshmallow and then I need a the cookies thank you for the cookies there's a marshmallow you know all right you guys cook on the fire and there's more wood here that if you want to make another fire yep is that marshmallow up there cooked is this a cooked marshmallow okay no it's not cooked it won't let me put it in there's another one for you to cook you have to put fire look that one has fire up there look there's more wood over there that's not cooked yet all right the bottom one is good right here right here thank you okay sure I need another plate please no right there one more clean one yep and you have the you have the the washer and that said the sink on that side all right I need another marshmallow when you're ready that fires running out Stella you got to add more wood to it okay and what else do I need I need to put it up yours too what'd you put it oh you put on a plate okay that's fine all right I need a cookie hurry oh there it is thank you got it all right I need marshmallows we're about to lose some points no more no more no we're here cook that oops here cook that and I need I need the cookie Sam you're not cooking it coz there's no fire there I need a key I need a cookie all right now I need a pleat there's a plate there we go all right [Music] I need one more cookie if you're gonna give that much metal we got one star it's toaster now all right still what do you wanna do next one here from here okay alright this time there might be bananas in the recipe do it alright the banana just put it on the plate with the cracker I'm gonna cook a marshmallow no go in order go in order next just do a marshmallow and cookie together yeah alright now this marshmallow can go with just a cookie where's the cookie up there alright now we need one with chocolate if someone could chop some chocolate please okay okay we need to chop some chocolate now or we're gonna lose points where is the chocolate oh it's over here okay put it here still on this one no no not that one bananas not that won't fit in this that one oh you put in the one bananas now we're gonna lose points yeah but for some reason you kept moving to the side every time you chopped wait is that what to sell ok go sell it go go go so it anymore fire ok put it here still of that one ok sell that one I go alright guys cut marshmallows start cooking marshmallows yep no bananas we don't need bananas now see him cut marshmallows why are you pushing me Samuel if you don't go in order we lose points if we lose points we can't keep doing more levels you have to go in order [Music] ok put a marshmallow there on that one [Music] doesn't undone yet whoever's dragon okay go put it up there soon [Music] all right we gotta make another one I'm gonna do it now here's your cookie Sam over here okay where's your plate we're gonna lose points Oh No good job you did it somewhat I don't know all right chocolate now chop chocolate actually we're gonna lose that one just do your bananas now all right so that one Oh add the bananas other bananas and sell it no it's okay it's okay it's okay it's okay because we're gonna we lost points in the chocolate one already all right and we're out of time look there's people without you one star all right Sam's turn go for it we don't have enough we gotta go back and get one more somewhere okay [Music] alright I'm gonna give you guys would put wooden all the fires okay and you guys give me marshmallows oh and put put um put cookies on all the plates alright and then give me marshmallows I need marshmallow so you guys could start cooking marshmallows marshmallows marshmallows okay got some mushrooms cooking there I need more marshmallows I need where's the marshmallows they're here yeah okay so now I need to yeah [Music] hold on chop chop chop chop chop okay that guy can be cooked boom that fires on boom nothing's on over there alright is this one cooked I don't remember okay cook down okay okay thank you alright mmm my fellow marshmallow marshmallow I need a marshmallow that's would that marshmallows not cooked all right thank you all right now I need just marshmallow by itself look there's one just laying on the floor is that one cooked or what's going on with that one okay marshmallow marshmallow marshmallow the crackers can go in the pleats but right now cook that marshmallow perfect all right cook that marshmallow up there all right oops put that in there all right I need one by itself perfect all right more marshmallows for me so I can cut them for you guys right you're saying thank you all right more marshmallows so I can cut them for you guys thank you not yet don't give me any more crackers till this place to put them on just start cooking marshmallows all right give it to you okay wait wait cook that marshmallow there there's another one cooking on top okay any more fire in the bottom I'm gonna cut that for you yep look the same this one's about to be done get that one I put it here perfect alright we're on fire perfect I could sell another one all right another marshmallow for me thank you okay and I just got to get you some firewood on the bottom there hey yeah perfect yeah okay hurry boom we did it we got another star [Music] good job guys guys did great you guys did well guys are so great at cooking camps food [Music] scary backpacks hmm interesting donut backpack oh this backpack has dough inside okay somebody get dough out of my backpack Sam okay then go go cook it I got it okay hold on put on the plate put on the plate Sam you just put dough by itself that doesn't go in there we need tomatoes too yeah Sam get dough out of my backpack and start doing that and I'll get the cheese out of your backpack there we go see someone else has to get the door to my backpack all right perfect where's the selling place oh here tomatoes Tomatoes Tomatoes Sam already has some cheese well we need some dough so we need to get doing my backpack there is no no no that's in here I'm cooking something well there could be a chocolate one that's interesting oops any food guys got to get you out of my backpack Sam you have dough you know you can't just cook dough Samuel we made pizza before put it there on the plate and cheese and tomatoes [Music] Sammy you gotta put tomatoes on there [Music] over here still about his cheese yeah it's right here in the bottom here look right here right here weird Eddie's there yeah no no cheese you want cheese not tomatoes Dilla I got it now we need to cook some find some pleats or the pleats oh boy nobody wants any of these orders take that I'll take that out man we're gonna lose points they want chocolate on these orders oh there's one we can sell Sam so yours so yours Sam sell yours over there on the right oh you need a plate huh all right that's fine boys they'll put the chocolate on there can you put it on there it's too cooked all right forget it I mean throw it away all right so we have chocolate Tomatoes all right still I get the door my backpack okay where are the dirty plates oh okay let me get the cheese out all right somebody get the door my backpack Sam get the door my backpack all right because we have all the other ingredients here over here Sam over here in the bottom where we're standing [Music] put it there everybody else add their stuff to it okay still I get the door to my backpack it's okay the other ones are shaking already let's just make this one go make two regular pizzas and then a chocolate pizza all right I'm gonna cut the chocolate all right now we just need cheese come here still I know but I need cheese over here 17 seconds left 5 4 3 2 [Music] does the Apple over there hey we got one point almost almost Hey [Music] all right last level that's the same as last time [Music] now there's an L hiding in there alright let's go to level two if we get enough stars just going order whatever it makes sense all right I'm gonna get the fires ready hold on let me start cooking another one here all right all right now is a chocolate one all right now we need one this just by itself just a normal one somebody make just a normal one make sure your fires hot wherever you're putting it all the fires are off right now I'm gonna put make a fire right now okay who's who's doing the marshmallow [Music] okay so first a normal one then a stuff chop you somebody bananas you guys chop some chocolate first I got it alright first do a normal one then chocolate then banana okay next one can go on my chocolate one put it there no it's done it's done alright sell that one alright now it's a banana one next one is banana it's okay there's three bananas we have to do in a row it's fine okay take that one off whoever's there red yep all right we're on wanna find a good way [Music] good job we are working awesomely go sell that banana alright cool [Music] hold on now we need let's see first a banana one and then a regular marshmallow one do the banana one first okay still I think you're fired right now take the one I have on top take the one I have on top yep take that one put it to the bananas I'll get that I'll get the bread the cookie all right all right now a regular one grab that yep all right do we have a plate we do have a plate boom go sell that hurry now it's time for bananas Sam you could get the banana one ready add bananas okay and then and then Sam okay you're gonna have the cookie awesome we're doing awesome yep Ted I don't think you have any more fire Sam put the fire in the bottom there Oh Stella take it to the top where Sam's fires okay go sell it hurry hurry hurry you did it [Music] two stars good job guys yep and then it'll be bedtime [Music] canoes oh this one's gonna be crazy Oh Mickey pancakes all right I need flour out no you have to chop those right oh we have to chop them okay who's red I need flour red all right and I'll make the chocolate one Samuel stop throwing them away Oh something's about to change oh now Stella's turn looks though I have something in the mixer up there okay give it to me Stella Stella thank you okay look Sam's up here this this start making Sam's blueberry one the egg yep and then flour oh no Stella that's gonna burn on the bottom Stella Stella Stella right here it's gonna burn okay thank you but we don't need we need chocolate give me chocolate we chocolate that's not chocolate give me chocolate grab me Sam grab it cook it on the bottom here's stella you could put that in there with the eggs and the flour here I'll chop that okay put that two over there still yep yep okay bring the stuff over for Sam bring Sam need Sam put it in the bowl put the eggs in the bowl Sam needs eggs and flour can you put this in the frying pan for me when you're done with that thank you thank you all right more chocolate please oh there's people on the canoes that's funny okay here's dirty plates for you to wash thank you alright I need chocolate let me work on that okay that can go in the bowl look the bowls are up there chocolate chocolate chocolate all right is this ready for me to cook still over here still over here alright here's a blueberry one I need eggs and flour in here please perfect this time take it out okay Stella look can you grab this one here and give it to me so I can cook it alright let's see what else do we need does that one needs to be cooked to okay Sam there's a frying pan right there yep [Music] okay take it off put it there all right still we need some pleats baby thank you [Music] keep an eye on Sam's thing over here put on a pleat and then bring it to us and it's probably the last thing we can sell good job to make you funny hey guys we did really well we definitely got more than one star almost got two stars almost okay throne-room go in there let's go talk to the king you guys earned it [Music] hey hey you're truly Naturals with nature and the backpacks what a splendid idea glad you packed better than someone else I can mention oh why anyone would bring a hairdryer here's beyond me well my friends see already I've been awarded this more the merrier cookie patch for cooperation we're on our way however this is only the beginning the trek is long and packed with passable peril go now take to the treetops and bring back some breakfast

BFFctB-Unj4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFFctB-Unj4 | Talking with Wickerwaka about the M92 MiSTer FPGA core and IREM hardware architecture | thank you hello and welcome to this new episode where we will be talking about the RM M92 Hardware mainly about Mr fpga and how this Hardware works and of course we are here with Martin how are you doing Martin I'm doing great thank you how you doing I'm doing great too and I'm pleased to be here talking with you thank you for your time and uh well the the intention to talk about this with with us with me I thank you for having me it's always happy to be able to nerd out geek out about this stuff no this is amazing I believe we'll have a bunch of fun uh this will be a bit informal in several ways because we'll be covering as much as possible but we'll be taking any questions from the public right now uh I'd like to thank of course Indian six and uh krenix who introduced me to to today's uh world of being able to talk about this online with you and and the Mr Discord of course every single link regarding uh Mr fpga the core itself and of course uh Martin who goes by weaker whack online but uh Martin has this uh Twitter and has GitHub they are both Linked In the description in the video so you can check them out thanks everybody for joining us it's uh Cesar Cordoba the yarn World casket several of you thank you for joining us and um well uh how how did you get into irm Hardware Martin I don't know if I even remember how I got into it um I was messing around with you know uh stuff on Mr I started just kind of doing a few little features in the in Mr main itself and then um I I think like the first kind of time I messed with actual like verilog and HDL was uh doing a little bit of the Shadow mask work um yes which uh was like a very basic introduction I was really just taking some work that uh uh Sultan 42 had done and adapting it a little bit uh and then I took on the Adaptive scanline stuff which was a much deeper dive into uh into that kind of programming into the the that's that's the framework basically right yeah that's into the framework so like it's it's different in a way because you're not really mirroring Hardware like you're it's almost like you know I've got 20 plus years of software development experience and a lot of it feels like software like you know when you're doing stuff like the scalar um you're not you're not emulating some old chip you're just trying to write a system that will take data from from A to B and do some Transformations on it but I learned a lot doing that and then I was looking for you know maybe I could work on a core but building a coursing incredibly daunting um so I had a few different criteria in my head like one was um I didn't have any arcade Hardware oh I can't say that anymore I have like six seven boards around me right now um but you know this time like two years ago I had no arcade Hardware I'd never even seen an arcade PCB um okay so I you know I wanted one that had schematics online that I could find um and then I wanted one that had multiple games on the on the system because I didn't want to spend yeah a lot of time so it would be worth it right for several several Birds exactly um so I stumbled across the fact that there was um schematics for our type okay um and started just staring at those and thinking could I actually do this like do I know enough to to build this thing um and didn't pay much attention to it and then um Ash electron Ash had already started working on a um a version of this in uh verilator so he had started building something that got a CPU running got to a point where there was um some stuff drawing to a frame buffer um and I started working with them and then I was like okay this I could actually I actually understand what's going on here I'm looking at the schematics I can kind of make sense of what these chips might be doing um and it just kind of snowballed from there and then once you kind of get that like you know pixel drawing on screen you're like oh well now maybe I can get the cat like once you see that like like the most rewarding thing I've I've found so far in core development is when you see that uh the like the the boot up screen saying that it's failed like the ROM of the ram test because you don't care that it's failed the fact that you've actually seen text on screen and it might be red or it might be black and white or it might be all garbled but just being able to see something like oh it's actually running it's actually outputting to some some Hardware is pretty rewarding uh and it just kind of you know it just kept snowballing from there um and I got our type running and I was like well like our type runs but I don't know schematics for the other um the other games but it was I don't want to say easy but it was kind of it was possible from looking at how this Hardware was built and then looking at maim to kind of work out what the next steps would be uh on this hardware and I still have yet to see an actual M72 board are you gonna pull one out for me here yeah I'm pulling one for you and we can talk because I I've had some experience with the this Hardware the M72 this one is a working uh archetype let me let me get to uh the other the other view maybe and here it is uh so you can see it better there you go that's better so this is the M72 and this is a working PCB this is our type okay but this had several repairs on my myself I changed the 245s that are on top here so basically when you worked on a different M72 you changed this right which which has a different buffers or latches maybe and remember a different pal and different ROMs right this is the this is our type in well this secondary board is uh from my uh X multiply I have here an exact ly you're identical this is this one I've repaired it has a lot of Reapers and it it works but it's it's failing in one of the Customs one of these one of the uh these ones are the the ones that handle Sprites I believe right to like the M92 board but when you when you look at what the the Customs on the M92 do they're often incorporating a lot of the functionality that's spread across two or three ships on this board I can imagine yes uh I I thought of even bringing M7 well this is M72 I thought I've been bringing an m52 because probably uh all these ttls that we are seeing here are condensed in customs in this way right and then these are built up in the n72 right that's kind of the way that this these companies worked and maybe our audience would want to know what these ttls do I don't know what they do on this board like it's I'm trying to remember what the schematics look like for the M72 um but it's a lot of a lot of stuff like most of it comes down to just translating addresses or storing a bit of offset second set so there's a whole bunch of logic there for like each of those um each of those layers is probably duplicated in a whole set of chips so you'll see a lot of the same chips and a lot of the same patterns in the layout because it's just duplicating for the A and the B layer um and you know you have latches for storing like the X and the Y coordinates then you have um you know an Adder to apply that to what the actual like scroll offset is for the the whole thing um and you have then other latches to kind of like as it's reading tile data from memory it needs to like you know read uh it's like 32 bits I think defines a like an actual Single Character or tile on screen um so that's to read that in in multiple uh like multiple steps it reads in 16 bits and then it reads another 16 bits and has to store those and then uh feed them off to other places actually look up addresses so it's and again that is all like this one single chip on the the back of the M92 board the ga23 or uh uh it's got a different number two but that incorporates pretty much all of that like probably in almost the entire Board of logic like the second board on the M72 it's like a single chip on the m92. yeah I I can imagine um the this is a this is an older port and this is compressed later on into small chips that are here in the M92 well the emulator 2 is in the other side let me let me this functional our type let me get it out of the way and this is this already fixed but it's broken in one of these customs and I believe that chiosis has made a replacement for one of these so I have to buy that but this is the M92 just in contrast for people to to see them both and what you mean but what I what I sorry I wasn't clear enough what I wanted to say is that maybe people want to know what ttls are in a way he's like what these like discrete logic chips are yeah and uh here is probably something that we can show them a bit it wasn't I didn't think about this but this uh this is a PTL guide that has uh one for example it has an end probably there's a 22 here somewhere somewhere but these chips have uh small Gates inside of them okay and they perform basic functions here yeah like each of those is like you know usually one two like four kind of like basic logic functions or some more complicated ships too um but they're all like they're all documented and they're all a standard like most the 74 series um you can buy them at the store even today right yeah you can buy them you can look at what they do so like you look at a board like this and it's full of chips and most of it is if you stare at it long enough and follow all the traces it's obvious what it's doing and it's really just the the handful of Customs on these boards that are actually kind of mysteries um that you need to spend a little more time working at what they're actually doing and that's why people Decap them and do other methods of working out what they're actually doing but the vast majority of the chips on these boards are like processors they're Rams or their 74 series logic that do like very known and simple things okay got it sorry about the audio issues that I did have uh they are fixed now and and well yes uh the what he he means here is these uh like Farm of small ttls that's just here right all these are like that little chip that I showed you each one of this is perfectly documented but you have to understand how these are connected and what he meant with the schematics is uh is a diagram that shows how these are connected in logic modules right like the video section the CPU section the audio section and all of these are connected in this scenario this is are the ROM boards the is this is the wrong board that has these ROM chips but it also has this for video These are uh these are used for Sprites okay and I don't know this one I don't remember what this one is it's one of those nanao chips are those are those both the same chip so sorry are these what are those two those the two big chips there on that board are those both the same type oh yes yes they are let me get you a close-up on those and let's let's see them here this this is uh 78 2001 that's probably it's the Ken k n a 603 uh four two one uh or zero one and same one yes okay so so this board is mainly responsible for the background the the like tile layers and if you like you can probably cut this board in half and like you'll see it's almost like maybe a mirror image like the top and the bottom or the exact same ICS uh in almost all cases and like even the ram chip the ROM chips there like there's eight of them these are the RAM chips right the the you know the the ROM ones so the to the left these are the ROMs ones these four and four and these two Rams are for this side these two ramps are for this side exactly and these are probably 245s and that kind of thing to connect to the other board and this these connectors are probably half and half of the background architecture right yeah yeah it's like it's a very like it it's a it's a almost beautiful like symmetrical design where it's like they they had a this system works and then they just duplicated it um and did it again and it's interesting because you can't like you know each layer has a separate separate tile set that it can use so you can't even use the same tiles and swap them between layers because all the tile image data comes from those those eight ROM chips and they're not shared between between each layer no nice and these have jumpers to configure the ROMs and they are configured in the same way and the only different the thing that's not symmetrical is this one this is now cheap here that is the so that is the chip that kind of makes the decision on um it might be it might be color palette also but it also makes a decision on based on the output of these two layers which layer is actually the higher priority one okay okay and uh I I believe this Hardware doesn't have parental priority right it's it's full layer priority yeah it's full layer I believe okay so there you go this is the whole video of our type and in the backgrounds do some RAM chips these ones and yeah when we look at the M92 board later like I'll show you the single IC that basically replaces all this this entire board all this thing is condensed into a single IC yeah yeah this one is the the other the middle Board of the M72 the LC this also has a non-out chip and also a different and now Chip smaller one and has a bunch of ttls several ramps that I have socket because all of these were failing this this was a disaster reward and uh all the all of these are socketed because they are they're now working but uh and this has these are piles that are discrete uh well not discrete these are programmable logical ways right yeah so what these are you used in my experience on the the iron boards is what these are used for is um a lot of times you have kind of complicated operation not operations but you have a you know like a particular right to memory you want it to go to some chip on the board um you know what's often called like a dress translation okay they use these Pals to control a lot of that because they're easily programmable uh like you like you know you saw on the the ROM board you had the they did Pals on there too and that kind of allows you to swap the the potential memory maps that different games might use on there if they have bigger ROMs or if they have a different like Ram location they're trying to access yes yes I was looking for the M72 to show them the pal in the in that so they they know which one you're referring to here it is that was that's the pal yeah right there for addressing the ROMs and the great thing about these is people have uh dumped these like I go to pldarchive.co.uk and I grab the source for those from there and it's a it's a very useful it's like I use them as kind of they're kind of like lighthouses on the board because you know a lot of signals are going to go through them and if you can like decode what they're doing you can they'll help you guide to guide you to other parts of the board they they are also great for us arcade PCB collectors because uh several times they die out it's unlike six years ago you well eight years ago you couldn't get pal dumps and uh about six years ago they started making this archive maybe eight uh this arcade where uh uh they show uh well they dumped this or we we dumped this let me show you how they are dumped because I do have uh dumped several of this as well let me get you something prepared for that but here it is sorry this is uh like a pile dumper oh and basically what it does it's uh it translates the pal into you place a pile here okay and this and then you use an eprom reader uh and you access the pal as uh as a ROM in the way that you sent the addresses and get the output as if that the inputs are address space and you get uh the outputs as ROM space and you don't buy the whole thing and then you use that thumb with some software to extract the equations that would get that result so they are basically rebuilt yeah I wondered what the what the process was for actually decoding them yeah their software uh poachy and several uh other persons I believe Chris Cabell yeah we're we're working on this and they released this the I have if anybody in Mexico needs to to some files I have busy bees so we can solder and and I can distribute those if somebody else can contribute to dumping pulse is it's a uh boring and uh most people don't um don't care about it but it helps to these projects like it help Martin here and it also helps us keep the boards working it definitely helped me um it's like it's interesting too because people like people dump ROMs from these boards and in a lot of cases they're not even used by emulators like on this board uh the video like the video timing signals like when like vsync occurs when hsync occurs and h-blank and NV Bank blank um that's actually all encoded in a in two different ROM chips okay on the M72 so I was like you know I didn't have Hardware so I couldn't measure where the actual video timing was but several of the main ROM dumps had those ROMs dumped even though maim didn't use them they were just there in the ROM set yes um and then I was able to just use those ROMs directly and say oh here's here's where all the vsync and all these things happen in the in the video timing yeah uh we usually dump them I'm part of a dumping Union and uh we dump them uh just because we can and because we believe documents in it it's uh it's important uh but uh but as you said not uh they are not used in maim mainly in in most scenarios but they are they are dumped and they started dumping them a while ago and documenting them for PCB repair mainly and this it this was this uh amazing site like uh gem arcade right that uh started documenting them and making them available to the General Public and uh they are they are included in the in the ROM set when you download it and they are part of the of the dump right now but several of these if you go check and check main source code many of these are labeled as undumped and those we need to dump and uh you you won't believe how many of these pcbs when you get them when you start documenting them you want to leave how many of them uh have ROMs that have not been documented or proms or Pals and that's also one of the differences that later on we'll probably talk about and uh how uh obviously it depends on the on the offer but how these could be different in different kinds of simulation simulations or whatever you want to call them mm-hmm yeah like there's you know the thing is too like there's often a lot of different variations on the the boards too not a lot but like companies will sometimes they'll be sometimes be like two or three different versions of a of a game board release for the same game yes um and like finding you know sometimes it can be like a little bit of a detective like journey to kind of track down like what is like what is like the kind of common set of components and what are the things that are unique to a particular board yeah and the uh in Maine you basically get uh whatever it has been documented it depends on the people that documented it sometimes you have small diagrams with the different pcbs and commands with all the text right and that's awesome uh I I guess that as much for you or even more for you than for me but it's kind of the only source you have uh like uh like a light in the darkness right you have you have to kind of be like a sponge with this stuff because it is you know you mentioned like jam arcade and it's like you'll find like hits to that on Google when you search for things and then it'll be like a dead link to somewhere or you might find a single screenshot or a picture of a board and you kind of like you know I have folders full of stuff where I'm just collecting like little Snippets of text and uh photographs that people have just trying to piece together as much information about this Hardware as possible as I'm working on it I can imagine that the repair logs for arcade pcbs have been useful for you because because uh you you see what failed and uh and that helps you right yeah oh yeah and like just like keyboard like I'll I'll talk to you about how like I was just completely lost starting off on it and had multiple false starts on like what actually does does what because it's you I I remember getting this board and be like okay now now I now I will be able to work it all out and it was like I sat down I was like what do I do now like I don't know what any of these chips do I don't know what uh where data is traveling on this thing and it was a much longer process than I thought it would be I thought acquiring the board would be the tough part but really um it was the learning how the board worked was the most difficult part for sure and um how do you run the report how do I run it yeah I have a um uh Bob from uh retro RGB sent me a prototype super gun um that I that I use uh and it was hooked up to a retro tank and I built a power supply for it uh and a a friend of mine who's a big collector lent me his M92 board so um that was my first my first arcade experience that's awesome and uh well how's Richard behaved with the iron boards because it had it doesn't have a regular or standard reverse rate right it was I had never tried it with the M72 with the M92 it's much more standard um and it deals with it okay there's some like curling sometimes and if you get rid of the curling the signals a little bit unstable um I just picked up this PBM in the background here a few days ago so um now I can just go directly into that um which is yeah this works better and and also since the refresh rate is different the resolution is also non-standard it's uh it's way taller than a standard ntsc signal M72 is like 256 pixels tall like actual visible lines um so a lot of people had problems trying to run it on regular CRTs like even if you can sync to the signal like you're gonna miss a pretty large amount of the screen is going to be eaten up yeah uh outside of the albertscan right yeah yeah especially in our types you get the the controls all the all the data is is below the line [Music] and uh so what's a what other uh things did you find useful from seeing the photos of the photographers of the PCB the pictures uh this this stuff right here like I I was um I don't know if I don't think I've even seen a photo of the M72 before today like this is my first time actually looking at a board man whenever you have an issue like this please please contact me I'm not certain to have the PCB but uh if I do I can document it for you as much as you want absolutely and I understand how this works because we we talked to the past about audio on the on the M72 and that lived kind of uh an hour and also we talked about uh syncing the signals right and and we built here in Mexico Hardware to run the Mr and the M72 at the same time uh but but that also is an issue because even though it's uh so close to the original Hardware in many ways uh even the original Hardware when you have two pcbs connected at the same time and you run the same input to two pcbs they'll get out of sync anyway right yeah it's it's it must be using some just right because this memory just ends up kind of random when it initializes um and I think it's using some part of that memory as like a seed into its random number generator yeah so it's not really predictable each run how it's going to how it's going to go yeah with need to hack out to that and do a bunch of things to to make it run yeah and uh I do find myself looking at the game code a lot while I'm working on it like I use um what's the NSA cracking tool like jidera or whatever it is who knows how it's pronounced okay yeah yeah yeah um and I load up like I've I spent a lot of time decoding the ROMs themselves so I can understand what the the program is doing um because a lot of times you just run into a problem where it's you know something's going screwy and you're like I'm not sure what the hardware was meant to do in this case and if you can see what the game is doing um that can really help and it's another good reason to use main for this stuff too because it has a built-in debugger that you can like that's what I was going into yes yeah um so I use I use maim a lot just for its even just for disassembly but also just for its debugger yeah I found it useful I I have not done a lot of reverse engineering mainly I do that for for repairs like I hacked the ROMs to just access the same ROM or the same RAM and and see which path is is uh lighten up in a way right which which is enabled and try to to find out which TTL or custom is is wrong there but uh just being able to dump the whole run to a file is is impressive right yeah oh yeah um like on this when I was working on this board uh it has later additions that if this have copy reduction um and it's like two CPUs writing to a shared region of memory um and it's like you know the other CPU is encrypted and the main CPU is not so it's like um I had to get unencrypted dumps for that and then kind of just working out what the pattern of reads and writes are that go on between those two CPUs so I spent a lot of time reverse engineering the protection um MCU code um and then building a very big like tracing and debugging system where I could just run both of them in Mr and then see where it was not like writing or reading at the right time um and that was like gosh I must have spent a month just trying to get the the copy protection working which was boy that sounds so daunting but but once you're into the weeks like that it's like there's either no way out or you run right there's there's this like there's a point in time often with stuff where you're like okay I need to I need to make a tool to help me understand this problem and then often building that tool is like a week or two of work um and getting to the point where you're willing to kind of commit to doing that is often like I will spend um like I will spend days just kind of like randomly hammering at stuff and hoping it fixes it before I make that decision like okay I gotta sit down and build a little test framework build a tool that will you know give me this information because usually once you build a tool and solve the problem that like all that work you put into building that tool is useful or useless you're never going to use that tool again um which was certainly the case for the uh the protection stuff it was like I I spent and two weeks building this thing I built a little visual debugger so I could see step through after the fact and and see all the memory rights and memory reads I've never used it since then and I I don't think there'll ever be a time when I'll use it again but because it was very specific to this one case well there's value in debts even even releasing that could be useful of course the the problem of releasing something like that is a documenting it or or making it uh readable for other people right yeah like I put it on GitHub it's there if anyone really wants to use it but it's like you know you're never I would never spend the time like ensuring that oh does this build on other people's machines or or whatever it's just there's the code it's there if someone really wants to dig into it they can yeah from my point of view I would encourage you to do that but of course from my point of view on my own developments I feel like oh no it's so much work but I've seen the tools you build and you've built them their Tools in my mind I'm like no one like I would never build like like uh like 240p test Suite or MD for a year I'd be like no one will ever want these things and you saw that someone would want these things and built them and built them in a way people could actually like use them and reuse them um and that for me is like that there's a huge commitment that I'm almost never willing to make to build software like that it's it's you know how it is it's Community Driven uh yeah of course if there was no response uh they wouldn't be I wouldn't say polished but they are polished because they are old not because I'm good okay and uh and then they are 10 year old tools right they've been about them for 10 years in community reports any issue they have and and I can fix that so uh that's the way to to make it because let me confess something to you I hate doing user interfaces and everyone does I hate doing that I'm a backhand guy but I understand that these tools won't be useful or won't be used if the users don't have some kind of experience I know my UI is terrible but it's it's something I don't know at least I could I could navigate uh I can navigate it with my eyes closed at this point I think thank you um so uh we have a question from the public and and they ask you uh what was the most difficult issue to debug up and fix on this score and I don't know if they're talking of n72 or M92 but uh let's let's talk I think we should talk about the M92 because I like let me let me move to the M92 yeah like the M72 is like you know I shouldn't say no I'll piss off my wife if I compare it to childbirth but like you know you forget the pain and it's in the distant path now past now so um but M92 stuff's pretty fresh I think the biggest problem with this um I don't know if it was win right maybe it was when writing the core but like if if you look at this board here um there is you know there's this there's these two big custom ICS um on the right hand side I'm assuming our right and left are the same g21 and G22 um those do like a lot of stuff and then to the to the left of them there's like a a whole bunch of um uh like a whole bunch of ICS like I think they're 150 f-154s or something uh right above where it's like where it actually has the board number where it says M92 a dash B um here all these all these chips up here the two memory chips above them um the there's probably like 16 or so chips here um and I spent probably a month trying to work out what all this circuitry did and went through three or four ideas of what it does and really all of this here with the exception of the ones right next to the um the the blue I think they're inductors or capacitors uh this is all just color output okay and its whole thing is color color and it's funny because we we talk about how like on the M72 they take like this entire board and compress it down to like a single chip on this board all of this circuitry would have been a single chip on the M72 and for some reason it's built out as all of this discrete um discreetly like logic and I I it's I don't fully understand why it ended up like this and why they didn't like cost reduce it in later versions of the board like it's really incredibly complicated and there's one cool thing about it is so like the the colors end up in the the RAM chips up the top here that's kind of where the color color palette gets stored those two there um and then what color gets sent out of the video just depends on which address gets fed into these these two RAM chips um because it gets right out of those RAM chips into the two latches that are next to it on the on the left and then that gets directly output see there's like there's three then uh resistor arrays which is does the actual digital dialog conversion and that gets sent out to uh to the to the as the red green and blue um these are 374s so you got you got you got two 8-bit latches so you get 16 bits of data one bit isn't used you have like five bits for red five bits for green and five bits for for blue um and that's how the final color gets sent out but the the feeding of the address data into the RAM chips um is like strangely complicated it's actually kind of cool too because they've built it this way but it's just like it took I I assume these chips were like nine different things before I worked out that they were actually just for color that's that's impressive so so this is something that you just touched upon that has mystified me for like 10 years and uh but I I understand a little of it as a matter of fact these are the the 74s that he was talking about these third latches and this is the the logic diagram of them if somebody wants to pause that and and check what they are but they basically a latch takes uh each each one of these takes one bit and stores it and buffers it for output right yeah it's basically like like it's it's like eight bits of ram yeah each one of this yeah and they are here they are they enter from one side and uh and go from the the next so the 07 and D7 the cd7 is input and O7 is the output on each one of these chips yeah so we're talking about these three latches here ah there's two of them there should be there's two yes two yeah and we have three resistor arrays yeah red green and blue and we have the ram so the ram is a line buffer I believe right now the ram is the ram just stores the the palette data so it's like okay or it's it's like the RGB values for each color index okay awesome but um but it it keeps on changing depending on on the area that's been rendered or so you what ends up happening is um you have like whatever address this is set to so let's say you know you fill this thing with 100 or 1024 colors um and you know each color is represented as just like 16 bits and then you just whatever color you want to actually come out of the video display you set the address to wherever that color is so you you send the address in here and then the data lines will then because you're reading the data lines will output the actual color bits I see I understand um okay so yeah pixel right pixel by pixel yeah um and it's uh you know the the actual like color data then it comes like which color to choose comes from um you know one value comes from the G22 chip so that's the Sprite um the Sprite drawing that's the bottom the fur the one down the bottom corner yeah the G22 there I think um the g21 uh so the G22 is one that actually does all the Sprite drawing um which one are you pointing at yeah that one uh it does all the Sprite drawing so it internally has a line buffer like you said um because Sprite drawing is a little bit more complicated than than tile drawing so adapt puts a color and then on the other side there's a G23 or it might have a different name on this board but it's responsible for the three tile layers and it will output another um another color value and then the pal if you go back to where the color chips are uh there's like a pal down the bottom there this one that yeah that one based on like some priority flags that come in it decides which address to use to look and to read into the Color Run so that chip actually makes a decision on whether you should be drawing a Sprite pixel or a tile pixel at that point this one does a priority man yeah add a whole bunch of other stuff like they irm seem to just cram logic into like random places wherever they could find a free bit there'd be um there'd be Ram in there like that also controls like debug access to the color Ram it controls color banking it's got a bunch of other stuff going on awesome no uh so yeah like like literally like like four four weeks five weeks I think I spent working on this and it was my first like like I said I got the board and I was like I have no idea what I'm doing like I've never traced a circuit board I've never used a uh like I bought a a uh a logic analyzer like I'd never used one of those before uh I took photographs of the board both the front and the back um so I could you know in the an image editor yeah so I could just because you know I didn't want to spend my all my evenings down here staring at this board so I would like sit on the couch and watch TV and be staring at uh circuit traces uh on my laptop and uh how do you do that I mean did you just use the image editor or you just uh create schematics oh sorry I am yeah I was like as I was doing this I tried to I have some schematics in the in the GitHub uh repo they're not they're not complete they're complete enough for what I needed them to do um but it's uh yes I would just kind of like you know oftentimes just making notes of like this pin goes to here this pin goes to there um and with a lot of these chips especially the kind of stuff here it's often like a lot of data and address lines so you might have like you know 16 address lines going to a bunch of different places and eight data lines and you're just trying to like map them like follow them from Chip to Chip and try to keep the you need to oftentimes you need to know what order they're like you know like we looked at that latch and it's like eight inputs and eight outputs yes and you you hope that like you know data line zero goes to input zero and address and data line seven goes to input seven but that's not the way these things often end up working out so like getting that right turned out to be very important later on when it was dealing with things like um uh color Banking and and things like that on uh I think was a ninja baseball Batman um was like uses a lot of the color Bank switching so like I was happy that I'd actually got all this stuff down on the schematic so it was very easy to implement but by the way uh it's it's a good moment to talk about this even though it's not related but these capacitors if you haven't changed them in your PCV the public or or the one that you have they urgently need to be changed because they leak and destroy the board that my ninja baseball Batman not not this one this one is um what is it it's hook yeah this one is hook uh Ninja baseball Batman uh this one leaked and almost destroyed several tracers here that I had to rebuild and it's it's very well documented that these leak and you have to change the layer Brown the original ones I think one of my board has been replaced and one of them my gun Force board I think is still leaving yeah awesome yeah they change paid a little right M92 there is very little difference between the boards the only um actually I don't think there's any actual functional differences there's the the chip on the back um the tile map chip there seems to be two versions of that with slightly different pin outs but functionally the same no um some boards have room for an additional bank of um of ROMs um but the this this board works with basically everything yeah the a board is basically identical in functionality right this one that we're seeing what uh you're mentioning is the people the B board or well the drum board this one it's it's called a as a matter of fact right and this one is that one that changes this one is even a different color a different shade of green this one for hook yeah and it didn't come out that well on my photographs either for whatever reason it's like a different PCB material I don't know what it is yeah it's quite different I've got several here that we could check if it's someone's curious but this changes it also has piles and this also has the the Rams right yeah yeah and it was I I like I ignored this board for like the longest time like I've focused entirely On The Other Board of course um and it was weird when I came to this board it was like moving to a new town like everything looked unfamiliar there was no landmarks to to guide you uh but yeah some of these boards are a little wider and they have an additional bank the the chips on the uh on the right hand side here those are these the Sprite ROMs this one um those ones right there and on the left are the the tile realms and then this this chip right here that tiny that uh I don't know if it's called the ga23 on this or the OBG eight something or other let me check maybe I I can read it because it's it's very dark yeah it won't let me see yeah I think it's called the OBG something something something on this one I can't read it uh yeah I can't yeah I'm blind this one this chip does basically everything that that entire board on the M72 did now thank you very much El kernel thank you for your support so this is basically the the condensed version of the M72 version of the background tiles yeah yeah because these are these are masked ROMs uh right yes and uh you can tell an original uh board by these basically because this could be this could have different stickers they could be uh taken out uh they could be repaired replace whatever but this this mask ROMs are from uh the factory yeah exactly and they contain all the background and Sprite data right yeah yeah here you have you've got uh Sprites you got backgrounds you have the main CPU ROM you have the sound CPU ROM and then you have the sample of ROM which is down in the the uh the corner uh next to the audio CPU yeah this and these ones are divided it's their split right they are uh how do you say that intertwined to their they're like interleaved there's like thank you yes there's like two there's two so you know it reads 16 bits on the ROMs or eight bits so you have um a ROM for the lower lower bits and around for the higher bits and then there's two of them one for like the low region of memory one for the high region of memory and some of these boards support um larger ROMs in the uh in the upper region and it uses bank switching to access the additional memory on them um so that's like if you have a board with the bank switching then that's kind of the the superset of all M92 functionality you can just change all the chips on that board to to be basically any game which is usually usually major title it seems is the one that gets uh uh adapt to other games of course because you you have the full functionality and access to all the ROM space right yeah exactly and this one that is the encrypt that is the audio chip so that's a v35 um which is very similar to the main CPU it's kind of the same architecture it's like an Intel I'm going to say ripoff I think they lost the lawsuit with Intel over this and I think any c loss I'm going to lawsuit with Intel over this chip um but it's uh it's it's like an Intel like um uh like 286 basically um but this one is encrypted so it uh or it's it itself is not encrypted but it contains encryption keys and the sound ROM is encrypted um so you can't you either need to use unencrypted sound ROMs uh or you have to pair the sound ROMs with the particular CPU for that game um but this jumper is right here next we see the n and the S jumper I think it's J1 right there um when it's in when it's in the when it's in the S position um it is secure and when it's in the end position you can use unencrypted ROMs if you can if you can find them this one is in this position yeah see that's yeah so you got original hook hook encrypted audio ROMs on there yeah this and this right jumper one and jumping two that's really interesting this uh for people that don't know this is a crystal it's like uh the the drum guy in one of those row ships uh that tells every single chip in the PCB at what at which Pace to to go does it there's a strange thing with the the major title version of the sport like all the later ones that have the eprom on them which which one do you verbally have one uh any like well we don't need to look at it but it it the the story is that like there's a lot of separation between like if you look at the other side of the board like all the analog audio circuitry is completely separate like you'll see it you'll see a dividing line on the PCB yeah and then when you look at the other side of this board um all of the digital audio and the the other stuff is kind of separate too like the audio is all on one side of the board it's got its own like clock like the audio has its own like 14 megahertz uh timer there and all that just all that stuff right there is just audio um but then on the major title board they needed a uh I think it's like 150 microsecond delay to um to do the eeprom writing like it takes 150 microseconds to write something to the eprom um so they took a signal all the way from the audio board like this one loan signal from this this 14 Mega this 14 megahertz lock and brought it all the way over the other side of the board uh and just use it for that that play and I remember looking at I had this like kind of like existential crisis where like I know nothing about this board like I thought I thought I knew everything and then I see this one signal from one side the other like maybe all these chips are doing something I didn't even think they were doing and then I worked out what that little circuit did I was like oh it's just a delay and they just needed a convenient clock signal to do it wow that's that's amazing by the way uh thanks to everybody that's watching uh hello electron Ash how are you doing hey welcome and uh yes uh so basically what he's saying is that one line from this goes all the way through here and all the way up here yeah up here sorry because this is the discrete audio this is the sample playback chip right yeah and it's cool because you see it actually straddles The Divide between the analog and the digital side here's a debate yeah and like the the analog stuff all comes out on that those pins on the on that one side yeah that's amazing um and yeah this was I was um the like each of these it's like a four it's a four Channel sample playback um and each channel has its own filter that it goes through um so you'll see like there's a mirror here of like four op-amps that all kind of are on the same pattern uh and those are all used to just to filter each Bank individual each like sample Channel individually and then they go back into the chip and then they get attenuated for the volume stuff and then they get um sent out again as four separate signals and then they get mixed by a bunch of the other um yeah right yeah this is a discrete part this is the analog part that just here's amplifier behind this here there you go yeah that's the amp and yeah this the my ninja baseball Batman was wrong in one of the sample channels as a matter of fact that was uh precisely this this cap had eaten up one of these oh one sample Channel wasn't working that would make sense yeah now that you say it it makes sense when I fixed it it I was so just blindly patching stuff yeah I was I was surprised they had a filter per person yes I I'm also really surprised yeah and this it makes so much sense now the layout I mean yeah and they also use this Yamaha too now we're talking we we have a huge parenthesis on what we were talking sorry I hope that everyone is as interested as me and they use the legendary 2151 uh-huh yeah something I've become very familiar with um but I don't have to worry about it because uh hatego made that like the jt51 module that just um it's such a rewarding part of the process is that like you will you know you're working you kind of get the the graphics working first and then like sound is often like kind of the last thing you look at um and you're often dealing with sound CPUs and sound ROMs and you know you're finally getting you see that CPU running and it's doing something but you don't know what it's doing and then you you know hook up those signals to the jt51 and all of a sudden you have like music like it's not like you go from you don't go from like um with the graphics you go from like nothing to maybe some corrupt stuff on screen and then finally you get something nice looking with the audio it's often just you go from Silence to Kick-Ass arcade music playing out of it but how what about this sample playback cheat you have to do that by yourself or yeah so um you know I used maim as a guide for what it was um and then I traced you know I had to trace all the signals they all go to this uh this kind of Pinhead the pinheader that connects the boards over there so most of those most that's mostly audio signals right there um so I could work out like you know what I what I do with all these custom chips is I work out what all the address and data lines are and try to find where like you know where clock signals are coming in uh where there might be like chip selects and just try to work out based on often going back to either the CPU or different kind of areas where I know there's addresses and data um do all like Trace that back so I can at least start building a little like a a schematic for the chip um so I you know and Mame had this chip pretty well documented um but things like um what the exact sample rate was and how volume worked and what the different kind of commands you could send it uh wasn't fully documented like there was kind of some suspicions that it supported some kind of looping um but it wasn't clear if it did or not um so I you know I built a test ROM that I could run on the audio CPU and send data to the the sound chip um and then with that you could just kind of experiment with writing different values to it and see what the output was okay and that's a mix of just like you know playing it and seeing Sounds playing and also um you know using logic analyzer to see how inputs and outputs are changing based on what you send to the to the chips that's uh that's a lot of work here uh here is a main there's they're asking us what uh this game which game drawn it's a come first you get a major title you get R type Leo in the hunt hook here we have in the hunt hook gong force and ninja baseball Batman I believe those are the ones that we have here at the of the lab right now and uh he was talking about uh here's here's those schematics that I was talking about in the in main source code okay and uh hello smoke monster how are you doing please please to see you around here and here's uh the custom chips and here's the sound chip this is the g820 and you were talking about how this where it's located uh it tells you in the diagram uh which frequency it receives in which pin right this is kind of of what main gives you when you're working on these boards and uh then you get probably a bit more info no not like this yeah so it's like for instance with this ga20 chip like one thing I had to work at was um like how does it actually access the the sample ROM oh yes because they these chips control the ROM right yeah and it's it's it's playing four channels um but it has to read from a single ROM chip for those four channels so like the clock input into that chip is um is three megahertz but the actual rate that it access acts as a sample memory is like you know it splits that into um I think it's like every eight Cycles it accesses memory um for each channel so it's actually actually I guess every two two cycles but like working at stuff like that with the logic analyzer and seeing how it's addressing memory kind of allows you to build a more accurate implementation uh in Mr how how were you doing the logic analyzer work because uh pins are so small um so the pins are small but uh if you flip over the actual pins on the ROM chip on the other side um are are nice and large so like I you know if I want to see how it's reading from the ROM chips I can just I can just put I can just analyze the the pins there okay um the other thing too is like I spent I I documented what all of the pins on the the inter board connectors were oh of course so I would just I would just kind of tape probes down onto onto those connectors yeah yeah so like that was kind of a goal of mine was to get all those fully documented so I could easily um pull signals out because yeah like trying to trace these boards like even I set up a microscope because I would go blind just trying to even just trying to count pins yes like my eyesight would start going just crazy just looking usually what I did in my desperation for reverse was to scandum at the highest resolution my scanner would give them yeah and just trace on top of the image yeah um but yeah I'm like I'm like investing in a test ROM for this stuff like really paid off um I didn't like not just for this chip but for basically the entire the entire board um like I started doing it on a like on a vacation uh at the end of last year and I was just I set up a build framework so I could just run my test ROM in Maine so I could just get it up and running get a drawing like text on screen uh get all that sorted out um and then uh from there I was like okay I can actually like I can run this ROM on the board and I can you know I if I need to test some stuff I could reprogram it but then I was like it would be great if I could actually just send data to the test ROM so that from my laptop I can be like hey right to this memory region and see what happens and because almost everything on these these boards is just by memory rights like I can you know I could draw sprites I could draw tiles I could play sounds all just by writing uh writing for memory so I wrote a bunch of um Python scripts to like test what different uh accesses to different things did and try to um work out most of the functionality from there and I think I've got a I think I got a pretty accurate implementation of all of the Customs on here at this point like um there's one or two kind of modes on some of these chips that I don't really understand why they exist um but for the most part I think I've got it all I think I worked out at least everything the games are using is is implemented at this point that's impressive my friend that's a lot of work and I really really admire it it was um I can't remember which ship it was I think it was the ga-22 um fertek D captive recently um and he showed this image and I had just kind of finished like my analysis of the chip itself so I knew it had like a uh like a um like it should have had like four line buffers inside of it and then in his in his uh scanner the thing it had like four very clear like Ram regions around the edge I was like yes I actually I think like just from looking at the signals and poking at it I worked at like what the interior design of the ship must be like that's impressive because you you were basically building a puzzle and you were missing some parts yeah and like especially with the like understanding what that internal RAM on the Chip And what its size and like limits were um was kind of like because I had to like kind of you know look at the because it would output data you know even during the vertical blank so I could see where kind of like memory was beginning and ending inside of that ship let me see impressive man here we have a different board this is ninja baseball Batman it has a different layout we'll check it in a minute but Ella karnash tells us that useless trivia a lot of neck chips part numbers start with D which usually means up from microprocessor in reality uh mu character not micro okay and um also he tells us that the ga20 and then now Chip probably means gate array very similar to Gator Ray used on things like the mpu one 401 cards and you get a question from crypter what's the motivation to do all the work is this for preservation I don't know I don't know what the motivation is I it's not it's not for preservation like I like a lot of people do um you know preservation work and I think that's that's awesome I know you do you do a lot of that too like I'm I I I think it's for the the the puzzle more than anything else yeah it's for having fun it's right and but it doesn't oftentimes it doesn't feel like fun but no no it feels like once you complete it right yes yeah like there's there's points where it feels like fun but it really like it does become this strange um like I don't know if you've ever like you know if you have jigsaw puzzles in your house and like you might have one on your dining room table or something or on your kitchen table and it's uncomplete and you can't walk by it without just looking at it for a few seconds and seeing if you can find a piece that fits in and then you fit that piece in and you move on um it's it is really like that with a lot of this stuff where you might just sit down and be like I'm gonna work out where this signal goes or I'm going to work out what this pin on this chip might do um or I'll sit down for it even with the logic analyzer and say I'm going to find out what the exact timing is on when the signal goes into a chip and what the output of the chip is um and it's just piecing all those little bits together and and each one is kind of like a tiny little reward that ultimately leads to uh getting this stuff done but it's it's you know it's really just finding things to occupy myself just like David Shadow says sold in the Apostle is more fun than the game sometimes the games honestly like I've played through uh I really like ninja baseball Batman like I'd never seen that game until it was run most of these games I've never seen on they were running on the on the industry um I got that running and I didn't even want to do a core release when I got to running I was like like I just done one I was like I'm not gonna release another Alpha version but like I said and watched that game for 30 minutes like I have to yeah it's it's so amazing I I hadn't watched this game until I got the PCB so I kind of get what you say yeah it's not the same thing of course uh but I've repaired like I prepared The Bionic Commando PCB that it was missing a full PCB layer and uh I hadn't seen the game before and uh the first time I see it is is because I repaired it so yeah I I remotely understand what you're getting at uh so these two chips here um the uh the ga21 it is it kind of manages all of the there's there's a few different like there's RAM chips right below it um and the RAM chips on the on the left I believe um those contain the kind of the Sprite definition so like what the XY positions are various Sprites on the screen and what colors they are um and then all that data oh and actually this chip contains also it contains a copy of the color palettes so it actually contains two things so the CPU writes to the ga21 and it it writes directly into those RAM chips and then you basically at the start of the frame during the vertical blank you tell the ga21 to copy all that stuff and it takes care of copying the color data up to the RAM chips up there yeah exactly and copying this fright data to the chips right next to it um and then the reason it does that is so that you can as soon as you've done that copy the game can start preparing the colors and the Sprites for the next frame because now that now this memory is free so it's like double buffering basically it will it builds all all that data transfers it and then it can start building for the next frame so it stays for a frame here while the CPU is working the next one yeah yeah kind of like a console yeah and then once that's and the um like the ga21 it also takes care of some things like sorting Sprites um and uh like determining how many to copy and it does a few other different Transformations uh but then once that's done the G22 is what actually draws all of the all the Sprites and it just reads for each scan line on the screen it has to read through the entire list of about 230 Sprites and decide which ones are on that line and draw them into the line buffer and then it will for the next scan line it will start outputting the line buffer it just generated while it's filling in the Sprites for the next the next line buffer um so there's two line buffers inside but it's actually it's actually Four line buffers just to deal with the amount of memory it has to write so it parallelizes it across two different blocks of memory because of how much stuff it does do you believe that if one of these gets damaged somebody could build uh fpga substitute for this I think it's I think someone I think doesn't there's information in the core now that you could do that yeah because uh obviously many people don't don't get it this because in the core you don't have like one piece of code for each one of these chips right no exactly exactly you have like a modular implementations that are equivalent uh to these parts but you could if you understand it you could extrapolate to work on that right yeah like like the ga the g821 and ga22 like I really try to keep them very true to how the original Hardware works like they have all the same inputs I don't put any like you know I remember on the M72 like some of the chips they had like they they worked with external memory but they were the only chips that worked with that external memory so I just built the memory into the module that they that I wrote um but for these I like I wrote them in a way that you could just take that module and it's it does only what those CPU what the what these ICS do this this code only serves the purpose of game collectors it also serves a purpose of uh modularity for further pcbs if there was an m102 are in PCV you would be able to take these and use them there yeah like there's the m107 I think which just has a few games on it but it is pretty much the exact same Sprite hardware and I'm sure this ga21 is is on that board and maybe the ga-22 is a slightly different version and then it has a different version of the uh ga-23 on the other side yeah um one thing that was really useful during development is I discovered that um the the ga21 like it it's responsible for like copying the data from those two RAM chips to the to the color RAM and to the the Sprite Ram or the object Ram as it's called um but it also has like purely for debug reasons uh it's actually only used during like the ROM test at startup uh it can read from the the Sprite memory and directly from the the color memory uh that's awesome okay so it does the the ram Roamer check yeah um so I was able to because it has that ability to read that memory um I was able to do things like you know write uh write scripts that like did all the various copying modes and copy things in different ways and then read back the results and then compare them to what the what the Mr implementation was doing too to ensure that the the final data that was getting outputted was matched between original hardware and and the core by the way uh Carlos h0 tells us thanks for the fun and leaving a trace thank you very much Carlos it's a it's awesome that you you're supporting thank you and uh I was I was going to tell the huge parenthesis that we left open that was my big question you we did we went through what these are what these are what these are doing and this whole part is video right uh this well except this part that's this this is probably just buffers or latches to for reading the the dip switch Yeah down down there where you where your hands are right now that's like buffers for the dip switches and for the controller inputs too there's some buffers up along of course yes aside for there um right around the like right around the main CPU um you have the you kind of have the two big RAM chips that's just the main CPU memory um oh those two there yeah yeah so those are the the main CPU memory uh above that is the interrupt controller so that's like when there's a vertical blank or some other like the m92s the ability to do what's called like raster effects so like at a certain line on the screen you can interrupt the the CPU and it can run additional code so it's it's used for like uh making it look like there's more than just three scrolling layers in a lot of games okay yes um and then around that ship there's like there's the clock for the CPU there's some Pals there which do a lot of the kind of like address translation so when the CPU is trying to write to the tile memory on the other side or the Sprite like that directs those signals to the right place and then to the right of the CPU those are just all buffers for the address and data lines because uh and this is kind of stuff I like I was like why are all these things here they're just chips in the way and all they do is all they do is like resend the same data but like the you know the data out of the CPU it goes to I think like six different chips um and there's just not enough power from the CPU to like drive those signals in a reliable way so these buffers just exist to kind of boost that the the signal output from the CPU so it can go to all those different chips that's that's really interesting because I always without knowledge I I always thought they were just there and they usually use 245s in those scenarios yes but these are 244s so that gives me a more precise idea and why to use either and 245s are used uh they perform a very similar function but they they are glue logic to to turn on or access different areas of memory and 44s are not right yeah yeah okay and you know what's great about these chips is they have pins that you can attach a logic probe to unlike the yes yes you you get all the this is It's kind of the first part that I go to it's for repairs the 245s or 244s that are around the CPU uh you have to figure out which one goes to the B video which can goes to the ROMs which one goes sometimes ROMs are directly hooked but sometimes last in these scenarios you said you're saying they are buffered right yeah yeah interesting I think the only thing that's not buffered is the actual Ram that the CPU uses so I think it's directly connected to this yes that's that's usually the case I've never seen one where Ram is buffered and then Above This is just some more uh I think this is more dip switch stuff and uh there's two latches here which are used for communication with the sound CPU so there's no the fancy view is almost completely isolated there's just one 8-bit channel for sending data back through a latch and one AP channel for sending data from the main CPU to the sound CPU now 2245s on the 374s yeah and this is just the control logic yeah um and there's one other I don't know if I know which I see it is um let me see if I've got documentation there's one chip on this board called um like the video It's called video control in Main um and meme only implements like one function of it which is um which is um to control color banking okay and all all it is is a um it's just like a it's just two uh two latches so I think it's a two seven three or something like that um and it is it's like this I like I feel like they just had spare like address bits and spare signals and they kind of attach them all to this chip um and it's just used for configuring a whole bunch of random things um so like this board actually like it's got a you know M92 I think has 200 and 2048 colors is what the color palette is but it actually goes up to like 8 000 if you like use this use this chip to like swap between colorbanks um and it's used for like a bunch of debug functionalities to use for like turning uh like Sprite and background layers on and off but it's just like it's a very strange chip right in the middle of the board I think it's uh like it's almost Center on the board and it's just used for this like grab bag of functionality um but the strange thing is like maim only has to implement like one single bit and every game like still works fine um but when you start like actually splitting out this like the Sprite buffers into separate memory and the like you know maim doesn't emulate the fact that there's like a color buffer that you write to and then it gets transferred to another buffer um once you start implementing all that stuff you really need to implement the actual video control uh bits too because they're they become fundamental to how that data moves around and that was the the part of the the parenthesis we've been skipping the the main difference I believe uh in in what you have and what maybe the main doesn't give you is how the video works right because video in in this pcbc name is something that usually frustrates me not because of how it works because when I'm repairing I'm blind when I'm repairing video yeah because it's it's not necessary right yeah May maim the way it works um and the way it's written and I'm sure it's changed over the years but like they've built a bunch of kind of generic like Sprite and tile map um like rendering systems so what you often end up doing is kind of like what a lot of cores or drivers in Maine do is they kind of like end up translating what the hardware actually does into what maim's vision of a of a tile map or a Sprite renderer is um and it's great because you just need to get a few bits of information into maim and then you'll get a you know an amazing scrolling uh telemap area but it tells you nothing about how the original Hardware actually um actually worked for the most part um like you know it's like for instance this piece of code you have up here right now the the um the Sprite control register um like this is not at all what this system actually does in real Hardware um but it's what ninety percent of the games write into this into this register so it generally works I think there's probably there must be a few games where it's not quite doing the right thing um but it it generally Works do you think that developing a patch to fix it as it should work would be beneficial in some way I want to go back and for sure look at this like there's um you know the the kind of like delay they put in for the timing here's the here's the description of the video control register by the way which is um you know it's just all question marks and not really sure what it is but the one that it is used for is like the Palace bank switching like the the second last line down there um but it's uh yeah like it's like I I was just bemused of what this thing was and why it existed and then just like seeing all the ten rules as it spread throughout uh was kind of fascinating um but the like one thing that's super useful from maim is like you know it will tell you exactly how the tile maps and how the Sprites are represented in the ROMs and how they're used by the CPUs and that's like you know you would spend a very long time working out what all these different bits do uh and just having it here in C code that I understand very well like makes it super simple like this like you know get PF tile info is like this is all the attributes that it reads out of time memory to understand how to how to draw a single tile yeah it's it's invaluable how much information is here yeah like I even to this day I still like I have two usually two or three code windows open like one for my one like of the core itself and then I I pretty much always have maim open because oftentimes when it's just like trying to work out what a particular address is or uh how a particular piece of Hardware is accessed it's much clearer to go look at the main code than it is to go look at a bunch of verilog to see the same thing do you think some uh there's a there's a parenthesis here also uh do you think that down the future I mean imagine it's a 50 years from now uh do you think it would be possible for someone to go back to your code and translate that to a future version of Technology uh I think so like it's a when when you get down to it like a lot of like verilog and and other HDL languages like they're very plain descriptions of what what the hardware does like you know when you look at um you know we were talking earlier on about those these like logic chips like the 74 series logic like a lot of code is just describing how you would string a bunch of those chips together like like each you know you'll hear people talk about like cells in fpgas um and in a lot of ways those like those logic cells and the fpgas are like one of those chips um like they they perform a bunch of functions and you can kind of program them and wire them up to do different things um and what languages like verilog and bhdl do is they allow you to operate at a slightly higher level so you're not like connecting and an or Gates together you're allowed to do things like do addition and have like if statements and conditionals um but it's it's still very kind of you can look at it and see how the hardware functioned any file you want me to open from the code you know which ones which is your voice the least ugliest um let me see any future logic would just be faster and more of it of course my question goes from ignorance I admit uh because you know they won't have access to a CRT they won't have access to the PCB they probably don't want to have access to working ttls who knows and uh would they have the context to understand the components and how to connect them in their future versions of hardware and the output that they should give that's that's mainly my question and one part of it okay let's go to the RTL folder sorry yeah like I think this stuff is is pretty fundamental like you know it's like a lot of this Hardware is like 30 40 years old at this point already Yes we still we still understand it and we're still using it in modern context and adapting it to uh to Future things like I'm excited for a future like I feel like we're at a point where you know you look at things like cps3 um and how complicated the custom chips are on that and then you look at systems like Dreamcast and Beyond and like like I I look now and I'm like it feels like it's kind of like a a wall that like the the complexity of these um systems are just so they're just so up there that no one's ever going to build custom precise implementations of these chips and you know you've got to wonder two of those value in doing that at all since like a lot of these chips aren't like a lot of these systems don't have the same kind of latency requirements that that uh older arcade hardware and consoles have but at the very same time I remind myself that like if you told me 20 years ago that like hobbyists would be like building like console mods and you know like modifying n64s of HDMI output like it's just like all this insane these insane projects you see where people are using like surface pen components and fpgas that would have been like unimaginable 20 years ago like someone could in their basement build this board like there's nothing on here that's beyond like a hobbyists like ability to use like uh fpgas and you know discrete components and RAM chips and just build their own arcade Hardware like this is perfectly achievable today so like 30 40 years from now like will we have fpga PlayStation fours and fives like it's certainly possible yeah who knows right yeah thing is uh well there's certainly going to be people that that care it's many people think that uh you need to love the system to to be able to go into the Wheats and you certainly are a demonstration that that's not the case you you you met the games after you made them run I I I 100 fell in love with these systems from working on them oh yes I I can imagine in a way that nobody else in the world would yeah and I kind of wish I could sit down and talk to like Engineers from this time period and understand why the decisions that were made why they did things certain ways like you know why does this board not have a pallet chip like you look at um you know the M72 at a pallet ship you look at like even like early like mid 80s Hardware like they all had like a lot of them had like custom components just for dealing with color palettes and here they decided to build it from scratch and he'd love to know like at what point did someone sit down and say we don't have time to build a custom component this is exactly how we wanted to operate I know how to build it I can build it cheaper than whatever the custom thing would be and then they did it and stuff it could be a cost thing that like we have all these chips in stock 10 000 of it yeah right yeah like these like these are like 154s or whatever they are the eight chips that control uh the address data in and out of the ram chip like did they just someone accidentally bought 10 000 of them I think we're like we got to use them somewhere yeah or they would left flubbers from a different PCV right from the I don't know from from Moon Patrol whatever and and they they needed to use the stock who knows those kind of things happen a lot and you look at sports too and sometimes they you know they build complicated logic out of um like a bunch of different chips and they'll often like they'll be like things like you know and Gates or or Gates on these boards that are just like you know each of those will have like maybe four and Gates or Gates and a single one on a single one and they'll just they'll route signals all over the place just to get like a negative like signal out of this or like or two things together like it's not like each of these chips serves like a single purpose like oftentimes they're reused for two or three different systems yeah because they already had it right and they had it like it's like you gotta you got an and on there it's only three of them have before being used so you need an and over here so you route all your signals over there and get your hand out of it yeah that's that's amazing and repairing them that makes it and I can imagine that for tracing them that makes it the heritage oh yeah and uh regarding the the logic and uh and how how it falls now you I can imagine how different you see it how how long have you been working I I can say it's been a year that just started working on this I got the board and so um like I look when I started on this it was probably I think it was August of last year so not even a year not even a year but it's it feels like a lot longer than a year um it uh and at the time I was like this like looking at meme I was like this is very similar to the M72 so I just took the M72 searched and replaced everything from M72 to M92 um and submitted that to GitHub and that was like my starting point on the project and then I started you know adapting that code to be able to run uh M92 stuff and I got pretty far with that like I got um you know Sprites and background layers running uh but the timing was all off like it was funny because I discovered that um you know the M72 is 256 lines tall and this is only um 240. um and I could see like on the title maps as it Scrolls by there's like debug info they wrote at the off the screen um so when you're when I was running it um I kind of hacked together 250 six line M92 you could see all that debug stuff at the bottom at the top and bottom of the screen that's amazing so it um but I at that point I was like this is like I'm I'm kind of kidding myself that I I could have probably done the core and I would have been a basically a port of the main implementation to fpga which is not something I wanted to do so I decided I would try to get a board and I got a board in September I think um and then worked on a lot of time just spent understanding the uh the circuits probably until I would say November or December um and got to a point then where I kind of understood what a lot of these ICS did and sat down and wrote a bunch of the the code at that point and got like Sprite and tile stuff rendering um and then I kind of took a break for a while because I was like I can't stomach the idea of tackling audio right now after like it's like you kind of come out of the tunnel and it's all daylight and then you're like I can't go back into that into that yeah you'll need a rest yeah so um that's when I did a bunch more work on test ROMs and stuff and messing around with that and then um the audio stuff came once I actually sat down and did the audio stuff it actually came together um pretty quickly uh so then I think the start of April um I had a at a like an alpha version of the core and it was because like unlike the M72 this this is so like this Hardware is so consistent um like there's literally no changes between almost all the games um so once like one game was running like there was there was a few games that like ninja baseball Batman and two or three other games weren't working um and those are just due to bugs in my code like it was like the entire system was implemented to a point that they could all run it's just those games were exploiting stuff in slightly different slightly different ways but it was they all pretty much were working very well at that point this this is ninja visible Batman so the difference is the layout is different for the the PCB these are the mask ROMs and this is the ic27 and it's a more legible here and these are also the mask rounds for Sprites and and uh but the difference from what I gather is this layout it says Rams it has a pile chip but it uses the a board in a different way then because it's very similar to to what we saw on on hook and on the on in the head right yeah there's some changes in just in like there's a few different versions of this board that late some of them just seem to like lay stuff out differently uh like this one has an empty spot there where an eprom could go um above the the ROM chips like that's where the eprom would go on the um the uh major Title II board um so this might even have a bunch of the supporting logic to control the eprom um and then you this seems to use some like smaller chips and some weird spots like this um but it's all generally the same Hardware just kind of like moved around in some different ways and this one uses the four player arms here right yeah they all they all again they all have the four players harness here's hook well Hook is also a four player game yeah in the hunt is not and it does have it yeah and that's what I use for my debug input into my test ROM as I hook up I have an Arduino hooked up to um the player three input and I just like bit bang serial data over that so I hook the Arduino USB up to my laptop when I talk to the Arduino and it talks to the to this board amazing now and uh also uh you you ended up using them before you on this yes yes I did um so I you know I got help uh from a few people on the M72 to kind of get the audio matched up and did a lot of that by by hand um and I never even considered like using MD Furrier until like what actually prompted me to reach out to you is I was looking for um I was looking for code on how the like how people interface with the the the ym215 one and I was looking for like C code that does that because everything was just kind of either like really grainy uh data sheets um or like assembly code from various places and then I found some C cones like oh this is cool and then I realized I was in your repository and it was your like uh your 60 your 68 000 x 68 000 uh MD Furrier stuff I was like oh this is like relatively like I never really looked at it before and under like I understood what it did conceptually but I never looked at what the actual process was um and that's when I reached out to you because like I could write this on the sound CPU and generate these tones and then you know probably generate some sample data too um and that's what me and you started working on uh how to actually use that so you gave me uh a sample ROM here that I could drop in n and we filled up the entire uh ROM that I had with just tones and got that playing back and we compared that between Mr and uh and the and the main board um and it was actually like I didn't the great thing was I didn't have to make any changes to the the filters because I guess I'd kind of gotten pretty close on the filter values um how did you get you you were simply simply sorry Analyze This you you reverse engineer does things to create your filters yes so this is I I think I got super lucky on this because this is not my I'm not like I'm not an analog Electronics person I'm not a digital electronics person I'm almost certainly not an analog Electronics person so uh I documented this I like Drew schematics for this and then I was like this kind of looks like something I've seen in in books um but there was no kind of like there's no like reverse circuit lookup that you can you can use so I ended up just looking at a bunch of op-amp circuits until um I found one that looked a lot like how the capacitors and resistors were hooked up to these op-amps um and you know discovered whatever kind of like you know filter it was generating and then from there I could I went to some web page that you know worked out what filter values were from capacitors and and resistor values and it gave me some you know some kind of like cut off frequencies and orders for these these filters so I I use those um kind of assumed that they were pretty good and it turned out they were pretty good um and so we did that for the sample stuff and then we did it for the uh the audio playback or the the like the FM playback too um tweak the filters on that as well I don't know whether I don't know where the filter is for this on the circuit exactly but um and then one of the really great things was using it to get the the volume levels matching up with the um right yeah and like I think a common complaint about this board is it just the levels are kind of all over the place with samples and and FM stuff so like I had a lot of people asking me to like fix the audio levels and I was like this is what the audio levels are on the on the original Hardware I eventually added in a a way to reduce the volume of the effects playback for the for the taste of the user but yeah yeah but and um but it like the original stuff is is in there and it is the default setting um I don't like how it sounds either so I usually use one of the the slightly attenuated uh playbacks as well it's it's really interesting uh David shutoff tells us that you could also verify theoretical cutoffs and values with spy simulations that's that's really interesting and I was going to say sarcastically and obviously that it's amazing how well math and physics work right like I I think I get disillusioned with with analog Electronics pretty early um I remember being in like an Electronics lab in uh in Universe in my first University and you know you're sitting in these classrooms and they're talking like it's all this like physics stuff and it's all this math stuff you're like oh my God I'm lost and then you sit down and build a circuit and it's not working and I I remember vividly like this uh this lab assistant coming over and like looking at my circuit and saying oh you should add a capacitor there and I was like what value he was like ah I don't know 100 microfarads and I was like how do I go from this like lecture hall where it's um like all this hard physics and like Theory and all this stuff and then I'm in a lab and a guy just tells me to put a random capacitor into a circuit I think at that point I became disenfranchised with the whole kind of like Electronics design thing and I'm kind of coming back to it now and trying to uh make amends and understand a little bit better that's yeah that's certainly surprising because it feels I I kind of understand where people that don't believe in science and math come from because uh it feels like magic when you don't when it goes over your head right but yeah but in reality it's just a matter of calming down sitting down and playing with the thing right well there's there's I believe there's two kinds of people in the world those who understand by making and those who understand by reading I I'm envious of the ones that understand simply by reading uh because I I only understand by destroying and building and making stuff I don't sometimes I feel like I don't understand either so yeah it's uh and I understand it um but I mean you can just uh try and and the the David Shadow tells us the Buddha of the coupling capacitor will mystify you I was watching a video on the coupling capacitors last night as a matter of fact well that's the now I can go back and look at that and be like oh he he just knew I needed a decoupling capacitor and the actual value didn't matter all that much for that oh yes the circuited question of course but I was just irritated the fact that there was like all of a sudden all the science went away and it was just someone's intuition over what the the value should be yeah yeah but but it was a decoupling capacitor for those that uh to answer don't know what are the coupling capacitor is what could you tell them I don't know it's it removes as far as understanding it kind of removes ripples from the voltage going in so you put that's why all these chips have little blue capacitors right next to them yeah these things they they are basically small batteries that allow each one of these chips to have current surges whenever they need to and uh and not not fall below the voltage that they need so all those small blue dots that you see in the board those are decoupling capacitors yeah okay for for the let me just do a flyover so so people can see what what we mean with the coupling capacitors this this are the coupling capacitors all those blue things are the coupling capacitors here you can see they are there for every single IC on the board they were very careful with that some designs are not as much on some designs have like a huge capacitor just next to a bunch of chips right yeah but that's what decoupling capacitors are uh for a Layman like me and uh also um yeah people have you know I'm sure down there thesis and phds on you know just on decoupling capacitors like that it's not like we we are degrading that work it's I I don't understand it I I know it goes beyond my head yeah and um they they tell us that uh uh yeah Electronics tells us that they try to they they have the different ground planes between analog and digital that we were talking about here in the in then and now Chip and that they go the ground plates go under the nanow Chip And he says that that's to try to force a return currents to reach the chip first to reduce to reduce digital noise get in for the anal to the analog outputs interesting yeah that's that's the kind of stuff where I'm like when when it starts being conversations about like ground planes and stuff like that I'm like it's it's definitely over my head at that point yeah and uh irisan887 tells us that he thinks that they have to be close to the chip to be most effective I believe the same they filter the noisy power supply voltage basically like low pass filter yeah so uh so if you ended up uh injecting the code into the the board for in order to run that MD Fourier test right yeah I I that's what I did um you know like the first MD Furrier I did was uh I was just writing all the the control commands so the the two five two one five one um from python on my laptop um and then I wrote rewrote it in assembly on the the sound chip and on the sound CPU Realms uh and what I'm trying to do right now I actually have it running but it's I still need to do like a pass on it it's kind of like I just I got to a point where I have a like a kind of stand because this required like my custom ROMs on the main CPU custom ROMs on the sound CPU and my laptop with a pile of Python scripts to actually get this to to do anything um so now I just have a like a sample ROM and this is the sample room red the sample yeah so I have the sample ROM and I've got the two sound ROMs this program yeah and then you can put those onto any M92 board and the first time it tries to play any music it will run through the the MD Furrier sequence and and play it all that sound back that's amazing so ideally someone could just on any board could um could put those chips in and just boot it up and go into the into the Diagnostics menu and and get that output now there's another issue uh how do you capture that sound signal because uh why I'm asking this uh the idea of Mr in general I believe is to be the you place a mister instead of this whole thing right and the output in the case of this pcbs is this Gemma P note however you get that either to your HDMI to be or uh your arcade cabinet it goes through any of these outputs and the idea is that the video signals and the audio signals coming out from this should be identical or or very close to what that thing would do right and the what you do with that after processing would be uh irrelevant because if you connect this this PCV through a scalar to your home theater setup that's all cool but you should get the same audio filtering that you get here right uh how do you record those signals where where do you latch them from so they are Amplified right yeah yeah so I I made peace with the fact that that what have I Justified this in my brain is that the the actual power amplifier on this PCB you know it would be replaced with the power amplifier on your TV or your sound system whatever it is so I decided that I would capture the signal before this um and if you uh there's like a revert there's a little variable resistor right behind that um and that is the output of that variable resistor is where I capture the audio because that then allows me to kind of tune the uh the amplitude so I get a good line level signal out of there um so that's the point at which I captured the the Audio I fully agree with your assessment that's kind of the uh I've been put enough doing that kind of work and I want to run mp4ia on cps1 and later on on uh to Apple and pcbs and uh that's that's kind of logic I I think I'll take yeah um like I do kind of want I want to take a look at the signal after the amplifier just to see if it's you know what kind of what kind of filtering it might be doing in there like it's the amp itself has has a frequency response so it's going to modify the signal somehow um I just don't know how significant it is yeah and there's something interesting that we could do because uh obviously to capture that Amplified signal you need to lower it to line level yeah right and you you need to modify it in order to you're going to be filtering it when you lower it to line level you do an impedance complete coupling usually you just use a car impendence matching uh um how you call that circuit impedance working imagine so that what it does is reduces uh the already Amplified signal from here to line level from here so but ideally what would be made is uh record after the amplifier and before the amplifier and you could end the Fourier these two and see what the filter is yeah yeah but but getting that recording cleanly is something is that's way beyond my knowledge I can get it uh with an impedance adapter but I'm sure that changes the signal yeah yeah I don't know that's like it's it's again in that on analog domain that I'm very uncomfortable with yeah I wish I I knew enough to to tackle that issue I someday I hope to have some knowledge but I don't Aspire too much yeah I'm sure there's people out there I'm sure David is is pulling his hair out at how our primitive understanding of of analog signals at this point uh probably uh yeah with jammies is one option of course and and also with the oh there there is Mr Allens exactly exactly you have you have several options and Miss around this option is is Mr Kate and that's amazing thank you Mr Adams for being around here not with Gemma Kevin it's exactly and JBC JBS uses line level yes that's right how interesting that's right and uh but but all these archaic pcvs which are the ones I'm in love with uh have this and they usually use core car audio amplifiers these are stereo or Carib amplifiers that that go there okay and Debbie Shadow tells us that he's not another guy either but uh I know the art of electronics is where I could get start starting okay I'll try to do that I hope I hope I I can understand something and uh and oh okay Ash asks us about the pal chip we talked about the pile chips at the start but uh they are in the Ramset but they are not used electron Ash [Music] okay and we also have uh to to understand why maybe people don't know this but why do you have to uh do the analog audio part analog video part here but what I'm really getting is you mentioned earlier that you could have gone and made a port from maim to fpga and I understand kind of understand how that works and you didn't want that and you went to the routes of re-implementing this as close as possible to the real arcade Hardware to give the best experience and understand the PCB better what do you feel is the difference that that makes more accurate I don't know if it's more accurate in significant ways like I can point to one or two graphical glitches in the main implementation um the but like you know those are things that I should go back and fix in maim at some point um but I think there's like I don't like it is in a way documenting the heart attack like and that I that I enjoy I enjoy knowing that it is working correctly like I'll tell you one one strange kind of like validation you get is um uh flip screen support so there is you know like all these iron games have support for like flipping the screen um and it's it's done with a combination of like the software does a little bit of it and then the hardware does some of it and all the hardware does is kind of invert a bunch of numbers so there's like you know there's like row counts that come in and there's like uh offset values and just a handful of those get flipped around when you hit that like when you hit uh the the flip screen dip switch um and it's rewarding when I when I worked on that and implemented the flip screen stuff that like everything lined up correctly after doing that flipping which meant that like there was no kind of like magic offset values that weren't represented in the hardware like everything was as like the same values of the art the hardware is expecting were in the core um because everything flipped very nicely and cleanly uh so that was rewarding and like you know I know something the main implementation doesn't do correctly it has a bunch of kind of just random offsets for like this is how the the Sprites are offset on the x-axis and the y-axis um there's reasons in the hardware for why those numbers are what they are um and like having that accurate and having the flip work kind of correctly first time was like was kind of a validation of that um does that mean anything to someone playing the game almost certainly not yeah I understand and listen yeah sorry please yeah I just like it means it I I find it um rewarding to feel like it's it's at that point where it's it's at that accuracy level it's proper right yeah and I didn't think I would get to this level of obsession with it I understand but there certainly was kind of a giddy feeling of um you know knowing that oh I know more about the ga-21 custom IC than anyone else knows outside of maybe some irm Engineers or some documentation somewhere I told my daughter of this news and she was not impressed at all but I was I felt uh I felt a sense of uh excitement and superiority I am impressed and uh I I was going to precisely try to move that uh away from that area and into a relatable experience because it's uh there's a big difference from what Martin is telling us uh between knowing something is measurable to knowing that something is uh usable right because we we can do that in in several ways with empty Fourier we I've uh I found that in the same way right I I can check an audio card when I implemented the thing I didn't expect much out of its Precision but then it kept telling me hey this new audio card you bought it's off by two Hertz in 192 000 Hertz okay and I'm like this software is telling me that it can detect a difference of two Hertz out of two hundred thousand it's wrong okay and I went back and no math was right I was wrong and uh that's kind of the same feeling right uh it's it's uh it I believe that we have not not necessarily a responsibility but we're in a position where we have the access to the hardware and we can document as much as possible with as much precision as possible for the future and having that fixed in main later on and and subsequently in any other emulator because that's going to be changed eventually down the line in in the version of main that runs on cell phones okay and having that fixed it it's good there's nothing wrong with having it better and that's that's the way that refinement works you go document something fix it back and I have that same responsibility in your jcd because I fixed the main for several things but I have not have the courage to submit a patch I I don't know either and I'd rather tell somebody that does know what I found and what to fix then then try and do it myself I know that's uh cowardly but yeah like I like I play any games on on maim um but like I do I do feel like I owe a debt to that project yeah um yes for just the like the sheer amount of information it provides um and like I I know it's easy to kind of dismiss their Notions of like preservation um because maybe the games aren't accurate or whatever but like what is there even if it's inaccurate even if it's like half wrong it's still in a lot of cases the only source of information on some other stuff and the best one uh I mean the for for when you have nothing it's the only and the best yeah and uh also it's it's wrong not on purpose it's wrong because that's how far they could get with technology from 20 years ago when these things were mainly documented right yeah like I have I have the luxury like I bought like a 32 Channel logic analyzer for like 200 bucks like and like 20 years ago I don't know how much money you would pay for such a thing and um because you wouldn't be able to get a 32 Channel probably maybe 16 right yeah yeah it's it's impressive and uh and maim of course uh will just get better uh they uh David Haywood and everyone that's working on that project is is amazing uh I've been part of the Thompson Union for 10 12 maybe 14 years and uh I've not submitted much in the last four years because I've not bought anything the economy is not helping and uh arcade prices are just wild nowadays as opposed to you could just like instead of buying Fallout 4 I bought this PCB right that was the price range 14 years ago it was quite different than than what we have and back then I could submit a lot of things but I I kind of saw how it worked internally and and these guys are working every single day they submit patches for those small things and uh like that Majong game that nobody cares about well it's fixed today right right and uh it's impressive it's a it's a lot of work yeah no it's crazy mm-hmm yeah meme is great it's not an authority but it's the best the resource you certainly have and uh yes I found also inconsistencies and problems in Sega City when I was writing md4f or the for the PCM chip of that I have not submitted that patch either and that's that's on me that's my problem well I have to submit that as probably just documentation right uh rsn887 tells asks us can you apply MD Fourier to fix audio analog feature filters in Mr implementation of comp computers like c64 and Amiga yes you could do that but you'd need to write custom software to run on on those machines and for that uh it's either waiting for me to reach the point of knowledge to work on those or better yet have an expert on the platform implement it and me help them and and have it in a couple of days like like Martin here did I was I was fortunate that it was just a matter of transcribing code from from C into into some kind of assembly like it wasn't it like it's it's code is fascinating because you look at it you look at completed code and it's so incredibly daunting how someone sat down with a blank text file at some point and started writing that stuff and then you write it yourself and it's you know like you know I don't know how many lines of code this core is but it's you know if I was to look at it right now I'd be daunted by it but like you know I would never have I would never ever have done the AMD foyer stuff if it wasn't already that that stuff there like and it's always built in on top of the of the of shoulders of giants because yeah that version of MD Fourier on the x68000 I wouldn't have grit in it if I didn't have access to all the sdks from the 90s by Homebrew developers right and uh not at all if uh somebody hadn't made an example i i as a matter of fact this is what I did to make that yes I I wrote a BTM player for the x68000 to try to understand how the Yamaha 2151 was working because I didn't get anything at all from I tried the support from the 68 from the Genesis to the x68000 and it's a different audio chip so I wanted to understand what the registers were doing a different chip so I simply wrote a bgm player and ran it to play um Dragon Spirit music and when I heard that played from my code I was amazed it was slightly off-tempo yes because I was thinking to a different p-sync on on the x68000 but it worked and I was simply Amazed by doing drone work like just just connect a to B B to C C to D and throw those to the registers and it worked but then again if you follow that line somebody that dumped or reaped that bgm caused me to be able to implement that and thanks to that then you wrote this because you had all the knowledge right yeah uh and I like I think about that too just like reading documents on like like at some point someone took the time to scan like the ym2151 data sheets and like it's you know terrible copy but it's the only copy out there that people use um and like it's like it's a thousand people hundreds of thousands of people doing tiny little acts that kind of like generate this pool of information that we all rely on yes yes it's impressive the work that the guys in the 80s and 90s did and the 2000s I can't imagine how they built it and Mr Adams asks us what the sample rate is in on this is it is variable but it's um I think I told you what the maximum was at some point so it's it's 3.4 divided 3.4 divided by eight is the maximum sample rate so it's like like 900 I don't know what that number is bad at math um it's about 425 kilohertz is the actual maximum sample rate but like nothing really operates at that rate you can there's like a one of the control registers you set is how um how to divide that that rate down to something and I think they operate around like the probably 8 to 16 kilohertz range would be my guess but I never actually looked into what so what games were writing yeah we decided on a sample rate based on what would be uh best to to including the ROM right we yeah we decided based on the fact that I had like 256 kilobit um ROM chips that we could write to and then we had to fit everything into that yeah and I basically just uh tried to fit as much in the in that same space and also because I've been working on Neo gel and the 2610 that has also variable sample rate speeds uh I knew that running it at different sample rates would just give us the the same curve but obviously limited to the the Nyquist uh frequency right to have so we would just uh get away with doing the highest we could uh with the most Precision uh within the human hearing range okay that that was basically what we did right um but yeah it's like it's a very simple little chip um I am like it's interesting because the boards before this just didn't even have sample playback shifts they just had a CPU that would um you know set the address on a sample ROM and then the data lines on that sample realm would just get fed into a simple a simple DAC and that would be the output um so yeah but that wouldn't allow four samples at the same time it would not so like this is definitely an upgrade over that yeah well they could but they would need to have interrupts and and yeah Special driver code that would allow them to to jump back and forth between each sample and mix in software yeah and in a lot of ways like again one of those questions I'd love to ask the engineers like the um the sound CPU on this board is like vastly overpowered for what it actually does because all it does is every once in a while send a signal to this uh the sound CPU or sound IC and say like hey play the sample of this position uh and the rest of time is just like every you know every few milliseconds is adjusting the sample data being sent to the or the playback data being sent to the ym2151 um and it's pretty much idle the rest of the time like it does almost nothing and it's a pretty it's as it's about half the power of the main CPU here um and they could have just probably continued using the z80 that they used on the M72 and let a lot of arcade Hardware used for audio playback um and I think they must have just switched it so they had the same architecture on both the main CPU and the sound CPU um but it's it's kind of just one of those interesting things where like they could have done a lot more they probably could have done four Channel audio playback on that CPU without this chip if they really wanted to yes what uh sorry I I don't have the zoom right now I'll get it back in a few minutes because my phone just uh battery just died I didn't I wasn't charging it sorry it was so uh kind of it wasn't that complex to I was going to have the the pcbs hooked up and being able to to run them but I saw no issue no no reason to do that or Mr to play the games meanwhile right yeah uh we'd rather focus on on this and uh our Arizona 887 asks us what is the crystal rate Crystal correct rate on mister and can it simulate machines that run on higher clock rates than its own so Mr um uses what's called like a PLL um which is a phase something something um but it's used to generate a variety of lock signals so like uh on this board uh and this core I generate um I think it's just one clock signal I generate and then I divide that down for a bunch of the other ones so the main one you want to have be a real clock is the the video output which is 26.6 megahertz is what that Crystal is um so you want that to be yeah phase lock loop there we go um you want the uh you want the video output to be a stable like clock that you can integer divide down so you don't get kind of like pixel wobbling on the analog output um so I based everything around a multiple of uh of two six of 26.6 uh and then all the other ones are just using um clock enables and clock dividers to get to the frequency because it doesn't matter all that much if the like the clock enable into like the CPU has some kind of Jitter to it it's mainly just the video when you want to be um is table thanks for for the name right and the next one Ash tells us that one slight limitation of the PLL block is that it can't always get spawned on on your chosen frequency if the same block is output in other clock multiples at the same time but you can get uh just add a second PLL lock and get it spot on for audio uh clocks Etc yeah like I so I guess I guess there's tooth locks in here there's the um there's the the main system clock and then there is the um the rat the ram clock for the sdram um but like I make sure those are integer multiples of each other so I can get a a get the actual output I need from it um and the S2 the scram is is interesting because it's you know when people try to have arguments about whether like Mr is is emulation or not or whether it's like a perfect Hardware replication like when you get to the stage where you are using stuff like sdram it becomes like difficult to follow how the original Hardware worked uh exactly like you look at this like you look at the circuit board you have like a set of ROMs for sprite data you have a set of ROMs for tile data you have a set of ROMs for CPU a set of ROMs for for audio Etc for sample data and all those have like direct dedicated data links to the CPUs that care about them um so like you know you know we joke about the Jaguar console basically claiming it was the first 68-bit console because they added up all the bits but like if you added up all the bits in the data pathways on this board you'd get like a 128 or 256 bit um arcade system um and I was looking at actually like to kind of emphasize this point I was looking at the difference between like a Neo Geo cartridge and a Genesis cartridge um and the main difference is them and like one of the reasons they're so physically different in size is that the Neo Geo has like multiple data and address lines in there um because you want to be able to like have that full bandwidth of all that different access while the Genesis cartridge just has a single address and data line yeah look at that look at all those pins there um and that's there because like on these arcade boards you have you know separate ROMs with separate data lines but when you get to Mr you only have you have a limited amount of memory on the fpga itself that you can use and then everything else you need to either use uh DDR memory which is kind of unreliable speed wise and sdram which is um you know reliable speed wise but is only limited to 16 bits um so you needed like Multiplex all of that access to the ROMs and the uh that are happening on the arcade board into like a single 16-bit channel on the sdram so like those you know those those systems in here like there's caches and stuff that I have to write for the telemap rendering or for the sample playback that don't exist on this real Hardware but exist purely to make it possible to work with sdram yeah I I kind of make made bees with calling them brain fermentations of their fit Hardware yeah yeah makes sense uh and actually like where possible like you try to preserve what the original interface looked like and then just put this extra piece of this extra module in there to make it um make it work with what makes sense on mystery and uh there's there's uh an aspect there that uh we should probably touch and it's the framework and what Ministries offers you as output and input options uh for you as a developer when you start a core yeah so you have um you know it's funny it's been a while since I actually wrote a core from from scratch because I started this with the the M72 but like you um like one way that it's like significantly different from software is that like the output from uh from your core is really just a um like a a clock signal and color values and and things like sync signals your real your core is basically outputting like the what the analog video signal would be and then you know the framework passes that can pass that out directly as analog video but it also has um the scalar to convert it to HDMI and uh scale it up and add filtering and other kind of effects to it too uh similar to audio as well you just output um basically PCM audio from your your core and it can do filtering and uh and stuff on the uh in the framework uh and then it you know the inputs you get are just kind of like you know joystick directions and a bunch of button bits that then you map to whatever the kind of inputs here are on the like they almost map like pin to pin to what these the the inputs are here on are on the JAMA Edge and on the the additional player 3M player 2 uh connections um and then uh like you know you have MRA files that will load the ROM data for you but you have to do a lot of work to kind of get those into regions of memory that makes sense for for your core so that's why you'll often see like MRI files are very different between uh between different arcade games like there's not really a set pattern for what they look like it's is it the memory uh is is just the loader also loads blocks of the of the core it um it just loads the the ROM so what Mr does is uh when you select like an MRA file from the the core list it first looks in that and sees what RBF violating to load which is the actual fpga code um and it loads that onto the fpga and then once that starts up it um it will start sending it the ROM data um and the ROM data just kind of arrives as a stream of bytes into your core and then you like within your core kind of decide where in like sdram or in memory on the fpga you want those different uh different bytes to go um and in my MRI files like the first few bytes are just kind of configuration data to say like hey this is a um you know there are some slight variations in some of the M92 games like the like dream soccer has um has a larger number of tiles um so there's like a bit at the start of the MRA that says like this is like you know a dream soccer board um and I think uh lethal Thunder has a different memory map for some reason um so there's an additional bit for that so it's a handful of different bits that say um configure the core in slightly different ways uh but for the most part it's just ROM data that comes through very very interesting and abiru tells us thank you all uh for your hard work and education in learning and all of this is such a relatively short period of time Martin and thank you for all you've taught me all along the way thank you thank you thank you very much yeah of course thank you thank you you're welcome and uh electron Ash tells us that RGB output from Mystery is essentially just like on most arcade boards just a resistor deck on Mr award but not at the voltage levels of course yes yes arcade pcbs have different uh requirements it's a different impedance on the monitors yeah oh aveiro is pretty bro hey hey vertebra we made by the way we made an episode with birdie bro almost well more than a year ago a year and a couple of months ago uh where we talked I didn't know it was you about awesome birthday bro this is an awesome guy he's made a lot of work and uh he's made a lot of stuff work yeah I think creeper is awesome he's always there to help me out with weird questions yeah yeah and also uh always testing and always making sure everything works thank you very much for your work as well so um uh which which games did you like the most from the from the platform um I was happy with our type Leo because I could actually get past the first level um which I remember playing the original or type took me like a while to to make it through and then like on the M72 it's got you know games like image fight that are just impossible um but I think um I really like ninja baseball Batman of course uh it's just so insane um but I really like I think the I know some people don't love the game uh gameplay wise but I think the art in Blade Master is just like phenomenal I've never seen that one um it's just like a side-scrolling beat em up but it's got some really cool like classic medieval medieval art in it and it's just like I'm like whatever you know it's interesting to be looking at arcade Hardware from the arcade games from this kind of period of time where like you know late 80s early 90s where like a lot of these boards had the same kind of capabilities like you know 16-bit 32-bit um or like like you know like 32 color 16 color Sprites like that kind of era um and looking at how like you can see how the artist skill varied between companies or just the art Direction vary between them like these games like I'm kind of amazed sometimes when I look at games like in the hunt and it's like this is really only like 32 colors per Sprite like it's just it's just insane like how did they how do they build this or what like I was watching um I was watching uh galaxian stream where he was playing through in the hunt and I he got the levels that I'd never gotten to um and it was just fascinating looking at stuff in the background um and realizing in my head how like they were creating those background effects like I see multiple things going on and like like I kind of kind of understand both the like how the hardware worked and also the effort that like an actual game developer would have to go through to use use that hardware and generate that effect and sometimes it was just like a single like screen and they would scroll by and then that was it you're like they like how much effort went into just making that single screen look amazing like using raster effects to turn stuff on and off at certain lines scrolling the backgrounds like it's just like it's kind of fascinating the amount of effort they put into just like like scenes that just pass you by very quick artistic expression right yeah that's the old explanation yeah no it's true it's it's impressive and I can imagine that having have been built one of these pcbs with your own hands uh basically virtual PCB and watching that use later on felt very similar to probably what the developers felt in terms of how did they do that oh that way okay it's like it's it's very rewarding like I know people really wanted to see games like in the hunt on Mr and like it's not my favorite game I don't know if I'm allowed to say that or not um but it's like seeing how high people were to get that and play it and enjoy it like that's you know it makes a lot of the effort worthwhile yeah yeah and uh obviously it's it's completely um off in certain in certain ways but the information that you gathered and uh this is some area that I believe is is most important sorry uh Homebrew for this PCB and uh when you have an incomplete implementation that doesn't detail the whole the full Hardware that's possible for Humber to be built and break an emulator if it doesn't support all the features of Hardware that weren't supported in the original software base right yeah like it was you know from my own experience like I knew there would be a period of time because when I was building the test ROM um like I got it up and running on maim and then it was probably two days of work to get that up and running on real Hardware because there's a bunch of things that you just didn't have to do on Fame to get things rendering and working that you had to do on the real Hardware to get things set up yes yes can you detail some of those things because I've I've found that as well that's why I stopped developing in Maine sometimes when I have something very specific and go and try to do it on Hardware but it's obviously in our case it's way harder than on a console because on a console you can use plug and never drive Pi USB and uh and run it every single cycle right you can't debug but you can test in real Hardware that that this is working but I I found that as well what kind of things did you find that that didn't uh work on Hardware after working on the PCB on the on Main sorry the main thing uh was that Mame doesn't emulate the kind of double buffering of the color data so you just like my code was just writing like writing some palette stuff into the the color RAM and then was just displaying text on screen and then when I ran out of real Hardware I saw nothing and then like spent like a day trying to like you know it was am I have the you know are they the kind of like background like scroll offsets do they need to be fixed and it's like one of the situations where you're just staring at a black screen and then I was like wait a minute maybe I should like write to this memory address that does the transfer for the Sprite data because maybe that has something to do with setting up the video and when I did that it copied the color data over to the uh to the actual palette RAM and then everything was on screen um so it was like a very minor thing but like when you're in a situation where the only the only app which you have is like black screen it can take a long time to uh to kind of diagnose what that problem is yeah he was talking about what he told us earlier this chip to this Ram to this Ram yeah right yeah so the main implementation just pretends that it's writing directly to that final yeah it pretends that the CPU has access to this right yeah and it's not the case the the this chip is the one that has access to this right yeah yeah that's kind of the the usual scenario when I write also tests for like okay I'm going to test the palette Ram from the CPU yeah right that doesn't work at all that's not the way the hardware is built right it's it's really interesting is there something else we've been here for I've been taking two hours and a half from your time and we've almost covered everything that I wanted to cover I don't know how uh how you feel if you want to cover more things I'm I'm fine it's uh and uh something that you want to I don't know covered bring some other pcvs talk about some other areas from the pcbs let's talk about I'm like smoke monster sent me um a Bomberman board a few weeks ago and that's the next thing I want to work at because it's kind of it's very similar to this Hardware but it's clearly like a cost reduced version of it yeah it's a single layer one right it's a single layer all of this fright and tile map rendering is like baked down to a single um uh uh IC um so I am I'm very interested in how that's all kind of uh put together and how it works because I think a lot of the rest of the board is very similar um it's also like a very it's a it's a fun board because they've taken off like two of the kind of ICS that are uh used for I think it's for the dip switch reading um and they've attached like a daughter board onto it yeah right down there they've attached like a daughter board onto it that has like additional uh control like player two and player three or player three and player four inputs on it uh it's a very strange job like the uh it's not even like a proper board to board connection it's like the the pins are just very long I see pins that are connecting into it yeah it's just like a small patch here right yeah different color yeah sorry yeah I'm hoping I can reuse most of everything else that I've done for this board uh and just work out how that uh how that new IC works yeah and it's a strange game as well it's interesting yeah it's it's an interesting game I I was going to bring that up but I I went with older games 72 and 92. yeah and uh our type 2 our type 2 is on the M72 and that should be that is working that's working okay yeah yeah it looks maybe main describes this as a different kind of board right yeah there's there is like thing I'd love to see some of these boards and understand how different they are do you want me to bring car type too if you haven't but I don't know right now visually I don't know if I could really oh yeah I can send you photos if you want later on yeah yeah that'd be great um because yeah like there are a lot of like different um different boards described in that in that M72 series um but it's hard to know what the real differences are if it's just like a pal chip has changed or if the the layout of the board was changed to make it more cost effective there you go I brought a bunch of pcbs in just in case um it's gonna be a mess to clean this up but it's fun yeah we did bring it so our type 2. this was bought at g-front years ago from akihara you keep do you keep all your boards in a static bag I'm trying to work out how to organize my growing collection yeah I use these static bags they are sold from Uline and but they sell a hundred of them maybe eBay would be easier for you yeah uh but I I use it because uh it protects it statically of course but it has a secondary function because since it's sealed I can keep them isolated from humidity and temperature to change it and I just play some silica gel inside so that it doesn't absorb the atmosphere so I close them and they are sealed and then I just click them in boxes and these boxes just have padding right so they don't move are those the Uline boxes too or did you just yeah they are yellow and voices and I just label them and keep them in a shelf so they are vertical and they don't uh bend the PCB that's kind of the thing that I do this is the m night well the it's it's in Maine it's called the [Music] yeah it's 82 not 72. right 84 sorry m84 it says here M82 is uh is this one yeah am 84. yeah and the main difference if I remember correctly like when implementing these was just that like some some things were at different locations in memory so it's like there's different uh different Pals being used and different mappings this is it it has a patch from from uh-huh and these are probably the same chips right the the ones for the backgrounds but they are scratched here from um this is the now chips are scratched as well so maybe for to prevent some kind of uh early attempts at cloning yeah yeah yeah like in in that series like the there are some boards that are different like like major title um the I think it's like m84 or something M82 I don't know what it is like it's it's got different Hardware on it um and there's one other one too that's like significantly different I think it's I can't remember what it's called again but like I do want to go back to those um and kind of re like either add support to them to the M72 core or some of them might warrant a separate core just to if they're that different yeah it's it's it's much simpler Hardware in so many ways yeah well I mean in in terms of having layers and and ttls it's mostly customs yeah yeah [Laughter] uh and I don't know if you can use I don't know if you can put other games on here or if they're if that's just limited or type two just the the sorry the like I don't know if you can use this as a like oh okay if you can just uh convert this right yeah um you'd need to there's there's very few socketed eprams there yeah they are mainly soldered there's a couple uh just below this there's like eight eproms that are socketed down below here but these are screwed so we can't see much let me turn on the light you can't see much here Let's uh the other side there you go those are the one socketed it's got a pal and a couple eproms but the rest are masks yeah that are soldered probably yeah but yeah some like some photos of that board would definitely help understand what the difference is sure I'll disassemble it and then take high resolution photos and send it to you that'd be great well I'll I'll I'll don't take it to the arcade It's Gonna Keep it's gonna be here okay uh sister says I can't even organize my sock my sock pairs then I just go inside the drawer um yeah Electronics says having ESD bags and silica gel can go a long way to help preserve words for longer and that's kind of the idea uh once I thought about selling many pcbs but once I I got started into knowing you guys and the Mr Project I I decided against it because uh they could help me help you guys document and uh and test things yeah I'm always grateful for people to holding onto them and not trying to sell them on for thousands of dollars on eBay no I wouldn't do that yeah but it's it's a huge responsibility like yeah every single time that you sometimes bring something out to play with your friends and it's broken up while it was stored and then you have to go back and repair it it's like I I've got a Strikers 95 95 45 uh board that has some Sprite issues and I haven't been able to figure out how the background Ram is accessed from the CPU or or where does the line corrupt I I've found that a single beat is corrupted from accustomed to the ram but I don't know if it's the custom or the path between the CPU and the custom and there's no documentation so tracing that oh boy what is m95 is that or dream 95 is that um it's um it's a cycle board let me show it to you I have it here it's just next to me because I was working on that a couple of I I stored it for years and then uh went back to trying to repair it and I followed my own steps and read the exact same thing that I have done four years ago and and growth code to change the the RAM and I found that I already done that uh thankfully I didn't go too far because I could use my old ROMs but here it is this this board so simultaneous and this is the ram that's that that gets the line wrong yeah and this is a custom that sends that from here to here and it gets it's corrupted it's always uh it seems as if it's pulled up to five volts always but I'm sure that there's something to latch it here to there from the CPU well I'll get to it someday yeah I feel a lot more comfortable when I'm working on like one or two borrowed boards and it's like kind of nerve-wracking just touching them and then like removing ICS and like pushing them back in it's like oh my God I'm gonna crack this board somewhere and break something that's Irreplaceable uh yeah I I know how that feels yeah and uh rsn887 asks us is the slowdown in the in the hunt already accurate on Mr now think it is so I've been I've been working on um adding a turbo mode right now um and I just I posted a turbo RBF on the Discord yesterday yeah I saw that yeah so the the turbo is running great now but it makes me think that there's some the timing on the regular mode is probably a little bit too slow um and it's it's due to it's due to like the sharing of the sdram with other systems um so I need to I need to go back and verify the timing on that because it like in the hunt seems kind of accurate to what the what I've seen on videos um gun Force 2 on the the current Mr version just feels like not even like like just very unstable frame rate um so I think it's I think it's doing stuff in a way that's that's kind of slowing the CPU down more than it should okay so it's it's basically not that it's improperly in order it's an improper implementation just to clear up for the for the public it's the access to the as they RAM and the differences in the implementation the new virtual Hardware that are probably causing that yeah it's not the reverse engineering it's uh the the architecture of the new system very interesting so it's it's what I'm I'm thinking probably in a week or two it will be I'll have a version app that will run correctly at the normal speed and have um out of a turbo mode that people can turn on that's that's awesome this is those small things that make things better for everybody yeah and uh it's interesting that uh there are players out there that can notice it right uh yeah like it's it's it is unfortunately pretty noticeable in some of these um some of these iron games especially the like you know their their predecessors for the metal slugs which are famous for their slowdown so yeah metals like X right yeah yeah so but it's in some ways like I know some people find it beneficial too to have that kind of slow down but accurate to the oh yes of course slow down is beneficial for for several reasons but yeah it certainly helps you and uh lubianka asks us what was a good rep where you were browsing that had ASCII art diagrams is that the documentary said of Mame yeah it is it's a I can copy the the links to but it's the source code for me that's that's how the source code looks obviously yeah I I love the idea that someone at some point in time looked at this board or took a photograph of these boards and then transcribed it into ASCII art and to preserve it this this is lovely yes yeah like it serves almost no benefit for the actual meme implementation but having that there like I've I've looked at this diagram multiple times um especially like when I was starting off to kind of just get a a good kind of summary of where things were on the board yeah I've seen it a couple of times as well and it always helps me a lot to understand because when you when you start on on this and you see the PC video you don't know what these things are but after watching several pcbs and several of these diagrams you start to understand even if you've never seen that PCB before you know that that's a custom that's Master Chrome that's a ROM that's the CPU those are probably the boss on the ram Etc right and and these diagrams help a lot uh in that help a lot also in documentation and for Reapers because uh it tells you where things are located at and where to have a general area or understanding to to start looking yeah I'm starting I'm starting I'm trying to build up the courage to start looking at another board uh sometime soon and like I'm wondering based on what I learned with these boards like if it'll be an easier kind of like starting experience just knowing where to where to look for things and what are kind of similar patterns that different arcade Hardware uses yeah looks how how experience has affected your startup speed right yeah exactly I bet it has helped a lot obviously you'll find something that will be a stumble but uh but more and more it'll be less and less hopefully that's uh and uh electronics tells us that it would be amazing to have more in-depth info on exactly how they reverse engineer parts of these boards I don't know if they mainly use logicalizer test runs or recommendation David Haywood does the streams uh not well he develops but talking about it so he doesn't do that because of copyright in order not to show uh eprom on the on the screen okay and that's copyrighted stuff or or reverse engineer the thing and I I would love him to do that on the Stream but uh yes it seems like like black magic when you don't have anything and and they Implement uh name drivers from a screenshot right from a photograph of the board and these guys have years decades of uh of experience as well so yeah like like I I guess too that a lot of the main implementations are based on the less on the hardware and more on what the software is doing and understanding like what like looking at what what the software is accessing and where um and working from there like but I think it would vary a lot on different depending on the hardware and the person doing it yeah yeah and if they have it if it's just a screenshot it certainly does just just like in Mr Right and uh because certainly you can do ports from Main to mister and not look at the board oh yeah for sure right and uh but I I I really enjoyed when when it's done like like you did because it helps us all it benefits everybody I think so thank you very much thanks and you're welcome like I think if I do if I do it again hopefully I do it again like I'm I might try to see what I can do to document the process a little bit better um whether it's just you know I'm pretty terrible at keeping notes myself yeah because you're in the rush you want to get things done right you're in the rush you want to get things done there's definitely there was definitely some times later in this project that I went back and looked at some notes I was like I wish I'd taken more detailed notes at this point in time or just taken a photograph or save that logic analyzer capture somewhere that I could look at it again um so yeah trying to trying to be a little more meticulous and I think with this board too was like not knowing whether I could actually do it so wanting to to get to the point where I I had proved to myself I could do it like with a new board maybe I'll be able to say like hey I know I can do this I can take the time to analyze this stuff correctly and document it before I try to move on to implementation too quickly yeah yeah I can get I get that it helps a lot to document it afterwards to clean up your process but yeah it's it's it can be daunting boring and uh unappealing yes all those things yes and more certainly more and there's always more interesting stuff to work on yes yes you want to move on to the next thing to have a problem to solve not not go through the problems that you already did so yeah I remember reading something like fertix said like long ago and it was like you know the things he likes are like you know reverse engineering the chips and like understanding everything's wired together and the party hates is like hooking stuff up to the Mr framework to actually get the game like running like that's the that's the tedious boring part of the process and the the discovery and the adventure of finding out how a list of works is the part that interests them yeah yeah I can totally understand that and rsn887 thank you thank you for your support and he says he says thank you for your tireless uh work bring these wonderful arcade games to Mr fpga and it certainly is uh it's a of work that's quite different from others because you you can just grab a bunch of games that are going to be supported but building up like like Martin here is doing or like uh several others are doing like like fortnite and uh an ace on Konami Hardware is like since these guys were building these pcbs and bringing up these Customs to be used in the next generation of pcbs you can use that work the same way that the company did to bring up the next generation of pcbs and and that that certainly makes it uh less tireless as you as you said because otherwise it's it's uh when you have a single PCB that runs a single game that's that's really true for several games out there it's uh it's it's less appealing right because uh you have to to go into that board and it's going to run just that game yeah the good thing is there's very few boards that are like completely custom yes even if a board itself only runs one game there's often going to be some components on it that are used in uh you know again like like Konami is like Almost Famous for that where like they've like almost none of their boards are the same but they reuse a lot of the same components and I think Midway uh is similar to where it's like they're the boards are different but a lot of the components are like reused and kind of like um uh like like mix and match between those that Hardware uh an electron Ash says I would be interested in adding to some Wiki somewhere to Hell document boards man if the thing is who does the thing who does the work if that has interest I can just use the junker Hue you can use the jungle issue Wiki for whatever you like just ask me for an account I'll give you that and we can start to try and document things there of course having it wherever to be public would be awesome for next Generations because you know all those notes uh will be quote some paraphrase later on are lost like tears in the rain otherwise yeah like I've I've tried to keep some of it in in the actual repository so there's like a docs directory that has some notes in there um but there's other things too like I have like you know like gigabyte size like PSD files with like photos of the boards um and I don't really know where to put those things that they'd actually be preserved um you know archive.org we can start accounts and start linking stuff and just dump it in archive org as uh it would be the correct place I think because it's uh it's an organization it's outside of the I offer junker issue because that's what I control but uh having it in a public repository would be better yeah yeah that makes sense yeah and they can store those kind of large files yeah I think that would be the better idea uh electronics says uh as an example years ago reverse uh the peanuts of all the connectors from the Naomi but never saw that influence were yes and and I do that as well uh for like the uh PDM from IGS I I reverse the the P note because I got a Unreal harness and uh published it and it was republished on another weekend that was good I felt okay I'm no longer responsible for holding this right it's it's out there in somebody else's hands and and we need that yes yes uh world photos are super useful yes I fully agree so um well Martin thank you for your time it's been really amazing and eye-opening I I've really enjoyed this uh thank you for your time and hosting me this has been uh fantastic no no uh thank you and uh well uh everybody thanks for being around here electronash birthday bro hola planeta and the pink and uh everybody that's been here and uh I believe that this has been very uh eye-opening in so many ways uh thank you very much uh Martin I hope that we can talk soon and and whatever I can do to help you just please let me know if I if it's in his hands in my hand side I might be slow but I I try to do my best that'd be great and if anyone has any questions like I'm on Discord I'm on Twitter um I'm on GitHub just you can you can find me and then I'm always always happy to answer questions yeah please join the the Mr fpga Discord uh links are in the description for everything smoke monster balmori thank you very much Gonzalo Fernando uh thank you and please take care of yourself please uh if if you are interested in supporting uh uh Martin's work he the links are in the description again please go and check them out and uh thanks uh to all the people in the mystery fpga economic Community equatronics sentient six Martin and everybody that's on the chat erisand887 electron Ashi everybody rollerman thank you very much thank you Marlin and well we'll be seeing each other soon hopefully of course thanks okay sorry I wasn't on camera because I I have so many cameras I didn't think about it sorry everyone just enjoyed looking at the boards yeah yeah I'd rather watch the wars than myself and uh the the the take is not for me it's for the stuff right so well thank you and take care thank you have a good night | Artemio Urbina | UCEh5UPBv0alseI62OJhnKow | 2023-05-18 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 29,073 |

liprivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit liprevox.org recording by abbayi in march 2018 principles of geology by charles lyle chapter 42 part 2 african deserts if we attribute the origin of a great part of the desert of africa to the gradual progress of moving sands driven eastward by the westerly winds we may safely infer that a variety of species must have been annihilated by this cause alone the sand flood has been inundating from time immemorial some of the rich lands on the west of the nile and we have only to multiply this effect a sufficient number of times in order to understand how in the lapse of ages a whole group of terrestrial animals and plants may become extinct the african desert without including borneo and darfur extends according to the calculation of humboldt over 194 thousand square leagues an area nearly three times as great as that of france in a small portion of so vast space we may infer from analogy that there were many peculiar species of plants and animals which must have been banished by the sand and their habitations invaded by the camel and by birds and insects formed for the arid sands there is evidently nothing in the nature of the catastrophe to favor the escape of the former inhabitants to some adjoining province nothing to weaken in the bordering lands that powerful barrier against immigration pre-occupancy noah even if the exclusion of a certain group of species from a given tract were compensated by an extension of their range over a new country would that circumstance tend to the conservation of species in general for the extra patient would merely then be transferred to the region so invaded if it be imagined for example that the aboriginal quadrupeds birds and other animals of africa emigrated in consequence of the advance of drift sand and colonized arabia the indigenous arabian species must have given way before them and have been reduced in number or destroyed let us next suppose that in some central or more elevated parts of the great african desert the upheaving power of subterranean movements should be exerted throughout an immense series of ages accompanied at certain intervals by volcanic eruptions such as gave rise at once in 1755 to a mountain 1600 feet high on the mexican plateau when the continued repetition of these events had caused a mountain chain it is obvious that a complete transformation in the state of the climate would be brought about throughout a vast area we may imagine the summits of the new chain to rise so high as to be covered like mount atlas for several thousand feet with snow during a great part of the year the melting of these snows during the greatest heat would cause the rivers to swell in the season when the greatest drought now prevails the waters moreover derived from this source would always be of lower temperature than the surrounding atmosphere and would thus contribute to cool the climate during the numerous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions supposed to accompany the gradual formation of the chain there would be many floods caused by the bursting of temporary lakes and by the melting of snows by lava these inundations might deposit alluvial matter far and wide over the original sands as the country assumed varied shapes and was modified again and again by the moving power from below and the aqueous erosion of the surface above at length the sahara might be fertilized irrigated by rivers and streamlets intersecting it in every direction and covered by jungle and morasses so that the animals and plants which now people northern africa would disappear and the region would gradually become fitted for the reception of a population of species perfectly dissimilar in their forms habits and organization there are always some peculiar and characteristic features in the physical geography of each large division of the globe and on these peculiarities the state of animal and vegetable life is dependent if therefore we admit incessant fluctuations in the physical geography we must at the same time concede the successive extinction of terrestrial and aquatic species to be part of the economy of our system when some great class of stations is in excess in certain latitudes as for example in white savannas arid sands lofty mountains or inland seas we find a corresponding development of species adapted for such circumstances in north america where there is a chain of vast inland lakes of fresh water we find an extraordinary abundance and variety of aquatic birds freshwater fish testosia and small amphibious reptiles fitted for such a climate the greater part of these would perish if the lakes were destroyed an event that might be brought about by some of the least of those important revolutions contemplated in geology it might happen that no freshwater lakes of corresponding magnitude might then exist on the globe or that if they occurred elsewhere they might be situated in new holland southern africa eastern asia or some regions so distant as to be quite inaccessible to the north american species or they might be situated within the tropics in a climate uninhabitable by creatures fitted for a temperate zone or finally we may presume that they would be preoccupied by indigenous tribes a vivid description has been given by mr darwin and sir w parish of the great droughts which have sometimes visited the pampas of south america for three or four years in succession during which an incredible number of wild animals cattle horses and birds have perished from want of food and water several hundred thousand animals were drowned in the piranha alone having rushed into the river to drink and being too much exhausted by hunger to escape such droughts are often attended in south america and other hot climates by widespreading conflagrations caused by lightning which fires the dried grass and brushwood thus quadrupeds birds insects and other creatures are destroyed by myriads how many species both of the animal and vegetable world which once flourished in the country between the valley of the parana and the straits of magellan may not have been annihilated since the first drought or first conflagration began to pursue this train of reasoning father is unnecessary the geologist has only to reflect on what has been said of the habitations and stations of organic beings in general and to consider them in relation to those effects which were contemplated in the second book as resulting from the igneous and aqueous causes now in action and he will immediately perceive that amidst the vicissitudes of the earth's surface species cannot be immortal but must perish one after the other like the individuals which composed them there is no possibility of escaping from this conclusion without resorting to some hypothesis as violent as that of lamarck who imagined as we have before seen that species are each of them endowed with indefinite powers of modifying their organization in conformity to the endless changes of circumstances to which they are exposed effects of a general alteration in climate on the distribution of species some of the effects which must attend every general alteration of climate are sufficiently peculiar to claim a separate consideration before concluding the present chapter i have before stated that during seasons of extraordinary severity many northern birds and in some countries many quadrupeds migrate southwards if these cold seasons were to become frequent in consequence of a gradual and general refrigeration of the atmosphere such migrations would be more and more regular until at length many animals now confined to the arctic regions would become the tenants of the temperate zone while the inhabitants of the temperate zone would approach nearer to the equator at the same time many species previously established on high mountains would begin to descend in every latitude towards the middle regions and those which were confined to the flanks of mountains would make their way into the plains analogous changes would also take place in the vegetable kingdom if on the contrary the heat of the atmosphere beyond the increase the plants and animals of low grounds would ascend to higher levels the equatorial species would migrate into the temperate zone and those of the temperate into the arctic circle but although some species might thus be preserved every great change of climate must be fatal to many which can find no place of retreat when their original habitations become unfit for them for if the general temperature beyond the rise then there is no cooler region whether the polar species can take refuge if it be under decline then the animals and plants previously established between the tropics have no resource suppose the general heat of the atmosphere to increase so that even the arctic region became too warm for the musk ox and reindeer it is clear that they must perish so if the torrid zone should lose so much of its heat by the progressive refrigeration of the earth's surface as to be an unfit habitation for apes boasts bamboos and palms these tribes of animals and plants or at least most of the species now belonging to them would become extinct for there would be no warmer latitudes for their reception it will follow therefore that as often as the climates of the globe are passing from the extreme of heat to that of cold from the summer to the winter of the great year before alluded to the migratory movement will be directed constantly from the poles towards the equator and for this reason the species inhabiting parallel latitudes in the northern and southern hemispheres must become widely different for i assume on grounds before explained that the original stock of each species is introduced into one spot of the earth only and consequently no species can be at once indigenous in the arctic and antarctic circles but when on the contrary a series of changes in the physical geography of the globe or any other supposed cause occasions an elevation of the general temperature when there is a passage from the winter to one of the vernal or summer seasons of the great cycle of climate then the order of the migratory movement is inverted the different species of animals and plants direct their course from the equator towards the poles and the northern and southern hemispheres may become peopled to a certain limited extent by identical species i say limited because we cannot speculate on the entire transposition of a group of animals and plants from tropical to polar latitudes or the reverse as a probable or even possible event we may believe the mean annual temperature of one zone to be transferable to another but we know that the same climate cannot be so transferred whatever be the general temperature of the earth's surface comparative equability of heat will characterize the tropical regions while great periodical variations will belong to the temperate and still more to the polar latitudes these and many other peculiarities connected with heat and light depend on fixed astronomical causes such as the motion of the earth and its position in relation to the sun and not on those fluctuations of its surface which may influence the general temperature among many obstacles to such extensive transference of habitations we must not forget the immense lapse of time required according to the hypotheses before suggested to bring about a considerable change in climate during a period so vast the other cause of extirpation before enumerated would exert so powerful in ignorances to prevent all save a very few hardy species from passing from equatorial to polar regions or from the tropics to the pole but the power of accommodation to new circumstances is great in certain species and might enable many to pass from one zone to another if the mean annual heat of the atmosphere and the ocean were greatly altered to the marine tribes especially such a passage would be possible for there are less impeded in their migrations by barriers of land than other terrestrial by the ocean add to this that the temperature of the ocean is much more uniform than that of the atmosphere investing the land so that we may easily suppose that most of the testosia fish and other classes might pass from the equatorial into the temperate regions if the mean temperature of those regions were transposed although a second expatriation of these species of tropical origin into the arctic and antarctic circles would probably be impossible let us now consider more particularly the effect of vicissitudes of climate in causing one species to give way before the increasing numbers of some other when temperature forms the barrier which arrests the progress of an animal or plant in a particular direction the individuals are fewer and less vigorous as they approach the extreme confines of the geographical range of the species but these stragglers are ready to multiply rapidly on the slightest increase or diminution of heat that may be favorable to them just as particular insects increase during a hot summer and certain plants and animals gain ground after a series of congenial seasons in almost every district especially if it be mountainous there are a variety of species the limits of whose habitations are contaminants some being unable to proceed further without encountering too much heat others too much cold individuals which are dust on the borders of the regions proper to their respective species are like the outposts of hostile armies ready to profit by every slight change of circumstances in their favor and to advance upon the ground occupied by their neighbors and opponents the proximity of distinct climates produced by the inequalities of the earth's surface brings species possessing very different constitutions into such immediate contact that their naturalizations are very speedy whenever opportunities of advancing present themselves many insects and plants for example are common to low planes within the arctic circle and to lofty mountains in scotland and other parts of europe if the climate therefore of the polar regions were transferred to our own latitudes the species in question would immediately descend from these elevated stations to overrun the low grounds invasions of these kind attended by the expulsion of the preoccupants are almost instantaneous because the change of temperature not only places the one species in a more favorable position but renders the others sickly and almost incapable of defense these changes inconsistent with the theory of transmutation the mark when speculating on the transmutation of species supposed every modification and organization and instinct to be brought about slowly and insensibly in an indefinite lapse of ages but he does not appear to have sufficiently considered how much every alteration in the physical condition of the habitable surface changes the relations of a great number of co-existing species and that some of these would be ready instantly to avail themselves of the slightest change in their favor and to multiply to the injury of others even if we thought it possible that the palm or the elephant which now flourish in equatorial regions could ever learn to bear the variable seasons of our temperate zone or the rigorous of an arctic winter we might with no less confidence affirm that they must perish before they had time to become habituated to such new circumstances that they would be displaced by other species as often as the climate varied may be inferred from the data before explained respecting the local extermination of species produced by the multiplication of others suppose the climate of the highest part of the woody zone of aetna to be transferred to the seashore of the base of the mountain no botanist would anticipate that the olive lemon tree and prickly pear cactus opuntia would be able to contend with the oak and chestnut which would begin forthwith to descend to a lower level or that these last would be able to stand their ground against the pine which would also in the space of a few years begin to occupy a lower position we might form some kind of estimate of the time which might be required for the migrations of these plants whereas we have no data for concluding that any number of thousands of years would be sufficient for one step in the pretended metamorphosis of one species into another possessing distinct attributes and qualities this argument is applicable not merely to climate but to any other cause of mutation however slowly a lake may be converted into a marsh or a marsh into a meadow it is evident that before the lycustrine plants can acquire the power of living in marshes or the marsh plants of living in a less humid soil other species already existing in the region and fitted for these several stations will intrude and keep possession of the ground so if a tract of salt water becomes fresh by passing through every intermediate degree of brackishness still the marine mollusks will never be permitted to be gradually metamorphosed into fluviatile species because long before any such transformation can take place by slow and insensible degrees other tribes already formed to delight in brackish or freshwater will avail themselves of the change in the fluid and will each in their turn monopolize the space it is idle therefore to dispute about the abstract possibility of the conversion of one species into another when there are known causes so much more active in their nature which must always intervene and prevent the actual accomplishment of such conversions a faint image of the certain doom of a species less fitted to struggle with some new condition in a region which it previously inhabited and where it has to contend with a more vigorous species is presented by the extirpation of savage tribes of men by the advancing colony of some civilized nation in this case the contest is merely between two different races two varieties moreover of a species which exceeds all others in its aptitude to accommodate its habits to the most extraordinary variations of circumstances yet few future events are more certain than the speedy extermination of the indians of north america and the savages of new holland in the course of a few centuries when these tribes will be remembered only in poetry or history concluding remarks we often hear astonishment expressed that the disappearance from the earth in times comparatively modern of many small as well as large animals the remains of which have been found in a fossil state under circumstances implying that neither any great geographical revolution nor the exterminating influence of man has intervened to account for their extinction but in all such cases we should inquire whether we are sufficiently acquainted with the numerous and complicated conditions on which the perpetuation of each species depends to entitle us to wonder if it should be suddenly cut off mr darwin when calling attention to the fact that the horse megatherium megalonics and many contemporary mammalia had perished in south america after that continent had acquired its present configuration and when if we may judge by the testosia the climate very nearly resembled the present observes quote that in the living creation one species is often extremely rare in a given region while another of the same genus and with closely allied habits it's exceedingly common a zoologist familia with such phenomena if asked to explain them usually replies that some slight difference in climate food or the number of its enemies must determine the relative strength of the two species in question although we may be unable to point out the precise manner of the action of the check we are therefore driven to the conclusion that causes generally quite inappreciable by us determine whether a given species shall be abundant or scanty in numbers why then should we feel astonishment if the rarity is occasionally carried a step further to extinction end quote end of chapter 42 part 2 chapter 43 of principles of geology this is a

charles lyle chapter 43 extinction and creation of species theory of the successive extinction of species consistent with a limited geographical distribution opinions of botanists respecting the centers from which plants have been diffused whether there are grounds for inferring that the loss from time to time of certain animals and plants is compensated by the introduction of new species whether any evidence of such new creations could be expected within the historical era the question whether the existing species have been created in succession must be decided by geological monuments successive extinction of species consistent with their limited geographical distribution in the preceding chapters i have pointed out the strict dependence of each species of animal and plant on certain physical conditions in the state of the earth's surface and on the number and attributes of other organic beings inhabiting the same region i have also endeavored to show that all these conditions are in a state of continual fluctuation the igneous and aqueous agents remodeling from time to time the physical geography of the globe and the migrations of species causing new relations to spring up successively between different organic beings i have deduced as a corollary that the species existing at any particular period must in the course of ages become extinct one after the other they must die out to borrow an emphatical expression from buffon because time fights against them if the views which i have taken are just there will be no difficulty in explaining why the habitations of so many species are now restrained within exceedingly narrow limits every local revolution such as those contemplated in the preceding chapter tends to circumscribe the range of some species while it enlarges that of others and if we are led to infer that new species originate in one spot only each must require time to diffuse itself over a wide area it will follow therefore from the adoption of this hypothesis that the recent origin of some species and the high antiquity of others are equally consistent with the general fact of their limited distribution some being local because they have not existed long enough to admit of their wide dissemination others because circumstances in the animate or inanimate world have occurred to restrict the range which they may once have obtained as a general rule however species common to many distant provinces or those now found to inhabit very distant parts of the globe are to be regarded as the most ancient numerically speaking they may not perhaps be largely represented but their wide diffusion shows that they have had a long time to spread themselves and have been able to survive many important revolutions in physical geography after so much evidence has been brought to light by the geologist of land and sea having changed places in various regions since the existing species were in being we can feel no surprise that the zoologist and botanist have hitherto found it difficult to refer the geographical distribution of species to any clear and determinate principles since they have usually speculated on the phenomena upon the assumption that the physical geography of the globe had undergone no material alteration since the introduction of the species now living so long as this assumption was made the facts relating to the geography of plants and animals appeared capricious in the extreme and by many the subject was pronounced to be so full of mystery and anomalies that the establishment of a satisfactory theory was hopeless centers from which plants have been diffused some botanists conceived in accordance with the hypothesis of wild now that mountains were the centers of creation from which the plants now inhabiting large continents have radiated to which the candelae and others with much reason objected that mountains on the contrary are often the barriers between two provinces of distinct vegetation the geologist who was acquainted with the extensive modifications which the surface of the earth has undergone in very recent geological epochs may be able perhaps to reconcile both these theories in their application to different regions a lofty range of mountains which is so ancient as to date from a period when the species of animals and plants differed from those now living will naturally form a barrier between contiguous provinces but a chain which has been raised in great part within the epic of existing species and around which new lands have arisen from the sea within that period will be a center of peculiar vegetation in france observes de candela the alps and savannas prevent a great number of the plants of the south from spreading themselves to the northward but it has been remarked that some species have made their way through the gorges of these chains and are found on their northern sides principally in those places where they are lower and more interrupted now the chains here alluded to have probably been of considerable height ever since the era when the existing vegetation began to appear and were it not for the deep fissures which divide them they might have caused much more abrupt terminations to the extension of distinct assemblages of species parts of the italian peninsula on the other hand have gained a considerable portion of their present height since a majority of the marine species now inhabiting the mediterranean and probably also since the terrestrial plants of the same region were in being large tracts of land have been added both on the adriatic and mediterranean side to what originally constituted a much narrower range of mountains if not a chain of islands running nearly north and south like corsica and sardinia it may therefore be presumed that the eponines have been a center whence species have diffused themselves over the contiguous lower and newer regions in this and all analogous situations the doctrine of wildenelle that species have radiated from the mountains as from centers may be well-founded introduction of new species if the reader should infer from the facts laid before him in the preceding chapters that the successive extinction of animals and plants may be part of the constant and regular course of nature he won't naturally inquire whether there are any means provided for the repair of these losses is it part of the economy of our system that the habitable globe should to a certain extent become depopulated both in the ocean and on the land or that the variety of species should diminish until some new era arrives when a new and extraordinary effort of creative energy is to be displayed or is it possible that new species can be called into being from time to time and yet that's so astonishing a phenomenon can escape the observation of naturalists humboldt has characterized these subjects as among the mysteries which natural science cannot reach and he observes that the investigation of the origin of beings does not belong to zoological or botanical geography to geology however these topics do strictly appertain and this science is chiefly interested in inquiries into the state of the animate creation as it now exists with a view of pointing out its relations to antecedent periods when its condition was different before offering any hypothesis towards the solution of so difficult a problem let us consider what kind of evidence we ought to expect in the present state of science of the first appearance of new animals or plants if we could imagine the successive creation of species to constitute like their gradual extinction a regular part of the economy of nature in the first place it is obviously more easy to prove that a species once numerously represented in a given district has ceased to be than that some other which did not pre-exist has made its appearance assuming always for reasons before stated that single stalks only of each animal and plant are originally created and that individuals of new species do not suddenly start up in many different places at once so imperfect has the science of natural history remained down to our own times that within the memory of persons now living the numbers of known animals and plants have been doubled or even quadrupled in many classes new and often conspicuous species are annually discovered in parts of the old continent long inhabited by the most civilized nations conscious therefore of the limited extent of our information we always infer when such discoveries are made that the beings in question had previously eluded our research or had at least existed elsewhere and only migrated at a recent period into the territories where we now find them it is difficult even in contemplation to anticipate the time when we shall be entitled to make any other hypothesis in regard to all the marine tribes and to by far the greater number of the terrestrial such as birds which possess such unlimited powers of migration insects which besides the variability of each species in number are also so capable of being diffused to vast distances and cryptagammas plants to which as to many other classes both of the animal and vegetable kingdom similar observations are applicable what kind of evidence of new creations could be expected what kind of proofs therefore could we reasonably expect to find of the origin at a particular period of a new species perhaps it may be said in reply that within the last two or three centuries some forest tree or new quadruped might have been observed to appear suddenly in those parts of england or france which had been most thoroughly investigated that naturalists might have been able to show that no such living being inhabited any other region of the globe and that there was no tradition of anything similar having been before observed in the district where it had made its appearance now although this objection may seem plausible yet its force will be found to depend entirely on the rate of fluctuation which we suppose to prevail in the animate world and on the proportion which such conspicuous subjects of the animal and vegetable kingdoms bear to those which are less known and escape our observation there are perhaps more than a million species of plants and animals exclusive of the microscopic and infusory animal cules now inhabiting the tear aqueous globe the terrestrial plants may amount says decandalay to somewhere between one hundred ten thousand and one hundred twenty thousand but the data on which this conjecture is founded are considered by many botanists to be vague and unsatisfactory sprinkle only enumerated in 1827 about 31 000 known fenogamas and 6000 cryptogamus plants but that naturalist omitted many perhaps 7 000 fenogamists and one thousand cryptogamas species mr lindley in a letter to the author in 1836 expressed his opinion that it would be rash to speculate on the existence of more than eighty thousand fenogamists and ten thousand crypto gamuts plants if we take he says in a letter to the author on this subject thirty seven thousand as the number of published fenogamist species and then ad for the undiscovered species in asia and new holland 15 000 in africa 10 000 and in america 18 000 we have eighty thousand species and if seven thousand be the number of published cryptogamus plants and we allow three thousand for the undiscovered species making ten thousand there would then be on the whole 90 000 species but since that period one catalog as i learned from dr j hooker contains a list of the names of 78 000 fenogamist plants which had been published before 1841. it was supposed by linnaeus that there were four or five species of insects in the world for each fenogamous plant but if we may judge from the relative proportion of the two classes in great britain the number of insects must be still greater for the total number of british insects according to the last census is about twelve thousand five hundred whereas there are only fifteen hundred fenogamous plants indigenous to our island as the insects are much more numerous in hot countries than in our temperate latitudes it seems difficult to avoid the conclusion that there are more than half a million species in the world the number of known mammaphers when taminik wrote exceeded 800 and mr waterhouse informs me that more than 1200 are now 1850 ascertained to exist baron cuvier estimated the amount of known fishes at six thousand and mr g gray in his genera of birds enumerates eight thousand species we have still to add the reptiles and all the invertebrated animals exclusive of insects it remains in a great degree mere matter of conjecture what proportion the aquatic tribes may bear to the denizens of the land but the habitable surface beneath the waters can hardly be estimated at less than double that of the continents and islands even admitting that a very considerable area is destitute of life in consequence of great depth cold darkness and other circumstances in the late polar expedition it was found that in some regions as in baffins bay there were marine animals inhabiting the bottom at great depths where the temperature of the water was below the freezing point that there is life at much greater profundities in warmer regions may be confidently inferred the ocean teems with life the class of polyps alone are conjectured by lamarck to be as strong in individuals as insects every tropical reef is described as covered with corals and sponges and swarming with crustacea economy and testation while almost every tide washed rock in the world is carpeted with fusi and supports some corallines actinae and mollusca there are innumerable forms in the seas of the warmer zones which have scarcely begun to attract the attention of the naturalist and there are parasitic animals without number three or four of which are sometimes appropriated to one genus as to the whale balina for example even though we concede therefore that the geographical range of marine species is more extensive in general than that of the terrestrial the temperature of the sea being more uniform and the land impeding less the migrations of the oceanic than the ocean those of the terrestrial species yet it seems probable that the aquatic tribes far exceed in number the inhabitants of the land without insisting on this point it may be safe to assume that exclusive of microscopic beings there are between one and two millions of species now inhabiting the pteraqueus globe so that if only one of these were to become extinct annually and one new one were to be every year called into being much more than a million of years might be required to bring about a complete revolution in organic life i am not hazarding at present any hypothesis as to the probable rate of change but none will deny that when the annual birth and the annual death of one species on the globe is proposed as a mere speculation this at least is to imagine no slight degree of instability in the animate creation if we divide the surface of the earth into 20 regions of equal area one of these might comprehend a space of land and water about equal in dimensions to europe and might contain a 20th part of the million of species which may be assumed to exist in the animal kingdom in this region one species only would according to the rate of mortality before assumed perish in 20 years or only 5 out of 50 000 in the course of a century but as a considerable proportion of the whole would belong to the aquatic classes with which we have a very imperfect acquaintance we must exclude them from our consideration and if they constitute half of the entire number then one species only might be lost in 40 years among the terrestrial tribes now the mammalia whether terrestrial or aquatic bear so small a proportion to other classes of animals forming less perhaps than one thousandth part of the whole that if the longevity of species in the different orders were equal a vast period must elapse before it would come to the turn of this conspicuous class to lose one of their number if one species only of the whole animal kingdom died out in forty years no more than one mammapher might disappear in 40 000 years in a region of the dimensions of europe it is easy therefore to see that in a small portion of such an area in countries for example of the size of england and france periods of much greater duration must elapse before it would be possible to authenticate the first appearance of one of the larger plants and animals assuming the annual birth and death of one species to be the rate of vicissitude in the animate creation throughout the world the observations of naturalness upon living species may in the course of future centuries accumulate positive data from which an insight into the laws which govern this part of our terrestrial system may be derived but in the present deficiency of historical records we have traced up the subject to that point where geological monuments alone are capable of leading us onto the discovery of ulterior truth to these therefore we must appeal carefully examining the strata of recent formation wherein the remains of living species both animal and vegetable are known to occur we must study these strata in strict reference to their chronological order as deduced from their superposition and other relations from these sources we may learn which of the species now our contemporaries have survived the greatest revolutions of the earth's surface which of them have coexisted with the greatest number of animals and plants now extinct and which have made their appearance only when the animate world had nearly attained its present condition from such data we may be enabled to infer whether species have been called into existence in succession or all at one period whether singly or by group simultaneously whether the antiquity of man may be as high as that of any of the inferior beings which now share the planet with him or whether the human species is one of the most recent of the whole to some of these questions we can even now return a satisfactory answer and with regard to the rest we have some data to guide conjecture and to enable us to speculate with advantage but in order to be fully qualified to enter upon such discussions the reader must study the ample body of materials amassed by the industry of modern geologists end of chapter 43. chapter 44 of principles of geology this is a

produced by the powers of vitality on the state of the earth's surface modifications in physical geography caused by organic beings why the vegetable soil does not augment in thickness the theory that vegetation is an antagonistic power counterbalancing the degradation caused by running water untenable conservative influence of vegetation rain diminished by felling of forests distribution of american forests dependent on direction of predominant winds influence of man in modifying the physical geography of the globe the second branch of our inquiry respecting the changes of the organic world relates to the processes by which the remains of animals and plants become fossil or to speak still more generally to all the effects produced by the powers of vitality on the surface and shell of the earth before entering on the principal division of this subject the embedding and preservation of animal and vegetable remains i shall offer a few remarks on the superficial modifications caused directly by the agency of organic beings as when the growth of certain plants covers the slope of a mountain with peat or converts a swamp into dry land or when vegetation prevents the soil in certain localities from being washed away by running water in considering alterations of this kind brought about in the physical geography of particular tracts we are too apt to think exclusively of that part of the earth's surface which has emerged from beneath the waters and with which alone as terrestrial beings we are familiar here the direct power of animals and plants to cause any important variation is of necessity very limited except in checking the progress of that decay of which the land is the chief theater but if we extend our views and instead of contemplating the dry land consider that a larger portion which is assigned to the aquatic tribes we discover the great influence of the living creation in imparting varieties of confirmation to the solid exterior which the agency of inanimate causes alone could not produce thus when timber is floated into the sea it is often drifted to vast distances and subsides in spots where there might have been no deposit at that time and place if the earth had not been tenanted by living beings if therefore in the course of ages a hill of wood or lignite be thus formed in the sub-aqueous regions a change in the submarine geography may be said to have resulted from the action of organic powers so in regard to the growth of coral reefs it is probable that a large portion of the matter of which they are composed is supplied by mineral springs which often rise up at the bottom of the sea in which on land abound throughout volcanic regions hundreds of leagues and extent the matter thus constantly given out could not go on accumulating forever in the waters but would be precipitated in the abysses of the sea even if there were no polyps and testation but these animals arrest and secrete the carbonite of lime on the summits of submarine mountains and form reefs many hundred feet in thickness and hundreds of miles in length where but for them none might ever have existed why the vegetable soil does not augment in thickness if no such voluminous masses are formed on the land it is not from the want of solid matter and the structure of terrestrial animals and plants but merely because as i have so often stated the continents are those parts of the globe where ascensions of matter can scarcely ever take place where on the contrary the most solid parts already formed are each in their turn exposed to gradual degradation the quantity of timber and vegetable matter which grows in a tropical forest in the course of a century is enormous and multitudes of animal skeletons are scattered there during the same period besides innumerable land shells and other organic substances the aggregate of these materials therefore might constitute a mass greater in volume than that which is produced in any coral reef during the same lapse of years but although this process should continue on the land forever no mountains of wood or bone would be seen stretching far and wide over the country or pushing out bold promontories into the sea the whole solid mass is either devoured by animals or decomposes as does a portion of the rock and soil on which the animals and plants are supported the waste of the strata themselves accompanied by the decomposition of their organic remains and the setting free of their alkaline ingredients is one source from whence running water and the atmosphere may derive the materials which are absorbed by the roots and leaves of plants another source is the passage into a gaseous form of even the hardest parts of animals and plants which die and putrefy in the air where they are soon resolved into the elements of which they are composed and while a portion of these constituents is volatilized the rest is taken up by rain water and sinks into the earth or flows towards the sea so that they enter again and again into the composition of different organic beings the principal element found in plants are hydrogen carbon and oxygen so that water in the atmosphere contain all of them either in their own composition or in solution the constant supply of these elements is maintained not only by the putrefaction of animal and vegetable substances and the decay of rocks but also by the copious evolution of carbonic acid and other gases from volcanoes and mineral springs and by the effects of ordinary evaporation whereby aqueous vapors are made to rise from the ocean and to circulate around the globe it is well known that when two gases of different specific gravity are brought into contact even though the heavier be the lowermost they soon become uniformly diffused by mutual absorption through the whole space which they occupy by virtue of the saw the heavy carbonic acid finds its way upwards through the lighter air of the atmosphere and conveys nourishment to the legion which covers the mountaintop if the quantity of food consumed by terrestrial animals and the elements imbibed by the roots and leaves of plants were derived entirely from that supply of hydrogen carbon oxygen nitrogen and other elements given out into the atmosphere and the waters by the putrescence of organic substances then we might imagine that the vegetable mold would after a series of years neither gain nor lose a single particle by the action of organic beings and this conclusion is not far from the truth but the operation which renovates the vegetable and animal mold is by no means so simple as that here supposed thousands of carcasses of terrestrial animals are floated down every century into the sea and together with forests of drift timber are embedded in the subaqueous deposits where their elements are imprisoned in solid strata and may there remain locked up throughout whole geological epochs before they again become subservient to the purposes of life on the other hand fresh supplies are derived by the atmosphere and by running water as before stated from the disintegration of rocks in their organic contents and through the agency of mineral springs from the interior of the earth from whence all the elements before mentioned which enter principally into the composition of animals and vegetables are continually evolved even nitrogen is found by chemists to be contained very generally in the waters of mineral springs vegetation not an antagonistic power counterbalancing the action of running water if we suppose that the copious supply from the nether regions by springs and volcanic vents of carbonic acid and other gases together with the decomposition of rocks may be just sufficient to counterbalance that loss of matter which having already served for the nourishment of animals and plants is annually carried down in organized forms and buried in some aqueous strata we concede the utmost that is consistent with probability an opinion however has been expressed that the processes of vegetable life by absorbing various gases from the atmosphere cause so large a mass of solid matter to accumulate on the surface of the land that this mass alone may constitute a great counterpoise to all the matter transported to lower levels by the aqueous agents of dk torrents and rivers it is said the waves of the sea and marine currents act upon lines only but the power of vegetation to absorb the elastic and non-elastic fluids circulating around the earth extends over the whole surface of the continents but the silent but universal action of this great antagonistic power the spoilation of waste caused by running water on the land and by the movements of the ocean are neutralized and even counterbalanced in opposition to these views i conceive that we shall form a juster estimate of the influence of vegetation if we consider it as being in a slight degree conservative and capable of retarding the waste of land but not of acting as an antagonistic power the vegetable mold is seldom more than a few feet in thickness and frequently does not exceed a few inches and we by no means find that its volume is more considerable in those parts of our continents which we can prove by geological data to have been elevated at more ancient periods and where consequently there has been the greatest time for the accumulation of vegetable matter produced throughout successive zoological epochs on the contrary these higher and older regions are more frequently denuded so as to expose the bare rock to the action of the sun and air we find in the torrid zone where the growth of plants is most ranked and luxurious that accessions of matter due to their agency are by no means the most conspicuous indeed it is in these latitudes where the vegetation is most active that for reasons to be explained in the next chapter even though superficial peat mosses are unknown which cover a large area in some parts of our temperate zone if the operation of animal and vegetable life could restore to the general surface of the continents a portion of the elements of those disintegrated rocks of which such enormous masses are swept down annually into the sea the effects would long air this have constituted one of the most striking features in the structure and composition of our continents all the great steps and tablelands of the world where the action of running water is feeble would have become the grand repositories of organic matter accumulated without the intermixture of earthy sediment which so generally characterizes the subaqueous strata i have already stated that in the known operation of the igneous causes a real antagonistic power is found which may counterbalance the leveling action of running water and there seems no good reason for presuming that the upheaving and depressing force of earthquakes together with the ejection of matter by volcanoes may not be fully adequate to restore that inequality of the surface which rivers and the waves and currents of the ocean annually tend to lessen if a counterpoise be derived from this source the quantity and elevation of land above the sea may forever remain the same in spite of the action of the aqueous causes which if thus counteracted may never be able to reduce the surface of the earth more nearly to a state of equilibrium than that which it has now attained and on the other hand the force of the aqueous agents themselves might thus continue forever unimpaired conservative influence of vegetation if then vegetation cannot act as an antagonistic power amid the mighty agents of change which are always modifying the surface of the globe let us next inquire how far its influence is conservative how far it may the leveling effects of running water which cannot oppose much less counterbalance it is well known that a covering of herbage and shrubs may protect a loose soil from being carried away by rain or even by the ordinary action of a river and may prevent hills of loose sand from being blown away by the wind for the roots bind together the separate particles into a firm mass and the leaves intercept the rainwater so that it dries up gradually instead of flowing off in a mass and with great velocity the old italian hydrographers made frequent mention of the increased degradation which has followed the clearing away of natural woods in several parts of italy a remarkable example was afforded in the upper valle diarno in tuscany on the removal of the woods clothing the steeped the clivities of the hills by which that valley is bounded when the ancient forest laws were abolished by the grand duke joseph during the last century a considerable tract of surface in the casentina the clausentinium of the romans was denuded and immediately the quantity of sand and soil washed down into the arno increased enormously frissy alluding to such occurrences observes that as soon as the bushes and plants were removed the waters flowed off more rapidly and in the manner of floods swept away the vegetable soil this effect of vegetation is of high interest to the geologist when he is considering the formation of those valleys which have been principally due to the action of rivers the space is intervening between the valleys whether they be flat or ridgy when covered with vegetation may scarcely undergo the slightest waste as the surface may be protected by the green sword of grass and this may be renewed in the manner before described from elements derived from rainwater and the atmosphere hence while the river is continually bearing down matter in the alluvial plain and undermining the cliffs on each side of every valley the height of the intervening rising grounds may remain stationary in this manner a cone of loose scoria sand and ashes such as monte nuovo may when it has once become densely clothed with herbage and shrubs suffer scarcely any further dilapidation and the perfect state of the cones of hundreds of extinct volcanoes in france the neapolitan territory sicily and elsewhere may prove nothing whatever either as to their relative or absolute antiquity we may be able to infer from the integrity of such conical hills of incoherent materials that no flood can have passed over the countries where they are situated since their formation but the atmospheric action alone in spots where there happened to be no torrents and where the surface was clothed with vegetation could scarcely in any lapse of ages have destroyed them during a tour in spain in 1830 i was surprised to see a district of gently undulating ground in catalonia consisting of red and gray sandstone and in some parts of red marl almost entirely denuded of herbage while the roots of the pines home oaks and some other trees were half exposed as if the soil had been washed away by a flood such as the state of the forests for example between oristo and vic and near san lorenzo but being overtaken by a violent thunderstorm in the month of august i saw the whole surface even the highest levels of some flat popped hills streaming with mud while on every declivity the devastation of torrance was terrific the peculiarities in the physiognomy of the district were at once explained and i was taught that in speculating on the greater effects which the direct action of rain may once have produced on the surface of certain parts of england we need not revert to periods when the heat of the climate was tropical in the torrid zone the degradation of land is generally more rapid but the waste is by no means proportioned to the superior quantity of rain or the suddenness of its fall the transporting power of water being counteracted by a greater luxuriance of vegetation a geologist who is no stranger to tropical countries observes that the softer rocks would speedily be washed away in such regions if the numerous roots of plants were not matted together in such a manner as to produce considerable resistance to the destructive power of the rains the parasitical and creeping the plants also entwine in every possible direction so as to render the forests nearly impervious and the trees possess forms and leaves best calculated to shoot off the heavy rains which when they have thus been broken in their fall are quickly absorbed by the ground beneath or when thrown into the drainage depressions give rise to furious torrents influence of man in modifying the physical geography of the globe before concluding this chapter i shall offer a few observations on the influence of man in modifying the physical geography of the globe for he must class his agency among the powers of organic nature felling of forests the felling of forests has been attended in many countries by a diminution of rain as in barbados in jamaica for in tropical countries where the quantity of aqueous vapor in the atmosphere is great but where on the other hand the direct rays of the sun are most powerful any impediment to the free circulation of air or any screen which shades the earth from the solar rays becomes a source of humidity and wherever dampness and cold have begun to be generated by such causes the condensation of vapor continues the leaves moreover of all plants are alembics and some of those in the torrid zone have the remarkable property of distilling water thus contributing to prevent the earth from becoming parched up distribution of the american forests there can be no doubt and that the state of the climate especially the humidity of the atmosphere influences vegetation in that in its turn vegetation reacts upon the climate but some writers seem to have attributed too much importance to the influence of forests particularly those of america as if they were the primary cause of the moisture of the climate the theory of a modern author on this subject that forests exist in those parts of america only where the predominant winds carry with them a considerable quantity of moisture from the ocean seems far more rational in all countries he says having a summer heat exceeding 70 degrees the presence or absence of natural woods and their greater or less luxuriance may be taken as a measure of the amount of humidity and of the fertility of the soil short and heavy rains in a warm country will produce grass which having its roots near to the surface springs up in a few days and withers when the moisture is exhausted but transitory rains however heavy will not nourish trees because after the surface is saturated the remainder of the water runs off and the moisture lodged in the soil neither sinks deep enough nor is sufficient quantity to furnish the giants of the forest with the necessary sustenance it may be assumed that 20 inches of rain falling moderately or at intervals will leave a greater permanent supply in the soil than 40 inches falling as it sometimes does in the torrid zone in as many hours in all regions he continues where ranges of mountains intercept the course of the constant or predominant winds the country on the windward side of the mountains will be moist and that on a leeward dry and hence parched deserts will generally be found on the west side of countries within the tropics and on the east side of those beyond them the prevailing winds in these cases being generally in opposite directions on this principle the position of forests in north and south america may be explained thus for example in the region within the 30th parallel the moisture swept up by the trade wind from the atlantic is precipitated in part upon the mountains of brazil which are but low and so distributed as to extend far into the interior the portion which remains is born westward and losing a little as it proceeds is at length arrested by the andes where it falls down in showers on their summits the aerial current now deprived of all the humidity with which it can part arrives in a state of complete execution at peru where consequently no rain falls but in the region of america beyond the 30th parallel the andes serve as a screen to intercept the moisture brought by the prevailing winds from the pacific ocean rains are copious on their summits and in chile on their western declivities but none falls on the plains to the eastward except occasionally when the wind blows from the atlantic i have been more particular in explaining these views because they appear to place in a true light the dependence of vegetation on climate the humidity being increased and more uniformly diffused throughout the year by the gradual spreading of wood it has been affirmed that formerly when france and england were covered with wood europe was much colder than at present that the winters in italy were longer and that the sina and many other rivers froze more regularly every winter than now mr arago in an essay on this subject has endeavored to show by tables of observations on the condylation of the rhine danube rome poe sina and other rivers at different periods that there is no reason to believe the cold to have been in general more intense in ancient times he admits however that the climate of tuscany has been so far modified by the removal of wood as that the winters are less cold but the summers also he contends are less hot than of old and the summers according to him were formally hotter in france than in our own times his evidence is derived chiefly from documents showing that wine was made three centuries ago in the vivare and several other provinces at an earlier season at greater elevation and in higher latitudes than are now found suitable to the vine there seems little doubt that in the united states of north america the rapid clearing of the country has rendered the winters less severe and the summers less hot in other words the extreme temperatures of january and july have been observed from year to year to approach somewhat nearer to each other whether in this case or in france the mean temperature has been raised seems by no means is yet decided but there is no doubt that the climate has become as buffon would have said less excessive i have before shown when treating of the excavation of new estuaries in holland by inroads of the ocean as also of the changes on our own coasts that although the conversion of sea into land by artificial labors may be great yet it must always be in subordination to the power of the tides and currents or to the great movements which alter the relative level of the land and sea chapter 20 if in addition to the assistance obtained by parliamentary grants for defending dunwich from the waves all the resources of europe had been directed to the same end the existence of that port might perhaps have been prolonged by several centuries page 310 but in the meantime the current would have continued to sweep away portions from the adjoining cliffs on each side giving to the whole line of coast its present form until at length the town projecting as a narrow promontory must have become exposed to the irresistible fury of the waves it is scarcely necessary to observe that the control which man can obtain over the igneous agents is less even than that which he may exert over the aqueous he cannot modify the upheaving or depressing force of earthquakes or the periods or degree of violence of volcanic eruptions and on these causes the inequalities of the earth's surface and consequently the shape of the sea and land appear mainly to depend the utmost that man can hope to effect in this respect is occasionally to divert the course of a lava stream and to prevent the burning matter for a season from overwhelming a city or some other of the proudest works of human industry if all the nations of the earth should attempt to quarry away the lava which flowed during one eruption from the icelandic volcanoes in 1783 and the two following years and should attempt to consign it to the deepest abysses of the ocean they might toil for thousands of years and not accomplish their task yet the matter borne down to the sea by two great rivers the ganges and the burmputer in each quarter of a century probably equals in weight and volume the mass of icelandic lava produced by that great eruption page 282 so insignificant is the aggregate force exerted by man when contrasted with the ordinary operations of aqueous or igneous agents in the natural world no application perhaps of human skill and labor tends so greatly to vary the state of the habitable surface is that employed in the drainage of lakes and marshes since not only the stations of many animals and plants but the general climate of a district may thus be modified it is also a kind of alteration to which it is difficult to find anything analogous in the agency of inferior beings for we ought always before we decide that any part of the influence of man is novel and anomalous carefully to consider the powers of all other animated agents which may be limited or superseded by him many who have reasoned on these subjects seem to have forgotten that the human race often succeeds to the discharge of functions previously fulfilled by other species suppose the growth of some of the larger terrestrial plants or in other words the extent of forest to be diminished by man and the climate to be thereby modified it does not follow that this kind of innovation is unprecedented it is a change in the state of vegetation and such may often have been the result of the appearance of new species upon the earth the multiplication for example of certain insects in parts of germany during the last century destroyed more trees than man perhaps could have felt during an equal period it would be rash however to affirm that the power of man to modify the surface may not differ in kind or degree from that of other living beings although the problem is certainly more complex than many who speculated on such topics have imagined if land be raised from the sea the greatest alteration in its physical condition which could ever arise from the influence of organic beings would probably be produced by the first immigration of terrestrial plants whereby the new tract would become covered with vegetation the change next in importance would seem to be when animals first enter and modify the proportionate numbers of certain species of plants if there be any anomaly in the intervention of man in farther varying the relative numbers in the vegetable kingdom it may not so much consist in the kind or absolute quantity of alteration as in the circumstance that a single species in this case would exert by its superior power and universal distribution in influence equal to that of hundreds of other terrestrial animals if we inquire whether a man by his direct power or by the changes which he may give rise to indirectly tends upon the whole to lessen or increase the inequalities of the earth's surface we shall incline perhaps to the opinion that he is a leveling agent in mining operations he conveys upwards a certain quantity of materials from the bowels of the earth but on the other hand much rock is taken annually from the land in the shape of ballast and afterwards thrown into the sea and by this means in spite of prohibitary laws many harbors in various parts of the world have been blocked up we rarely transport heavy materials to higher levels and our pyramids and cities are chiefly constructed of stone brought down for more elevated situations by plowing up thousands of square miles and exposing a surface for part of the year to the action of the elements we assist the abrading force of rain and diminish the conservative effects of vegetation end of chapter 44. you | Priceless Audiobooks | UCly1zcKPGzGW9wZMCZodWOA | 2019-09-10 | Creative Commons

month now I'm going to have to wait for it to get delivered bastard hey don't B out the comic shop that place is great how else can I get my copy of VCU not everyone about vampire police now that's your loss not mine besides the sexy vampire police dangerous vampires taking off space so I can't get my Comics you still got about 12 other the books relax what did you just say to me the world's going to end they saw someone to relax you're right I you found unemplyment must have M now I don't even know who you are anymore people I do not have a latte you had one sat right in front of you and you chose just not to drink it that particular latte was not a shall we say precious is it because Johnny bought it for you of course not just didn't have enough milk in it it's all milk well not that one it must have been water or something yeah that's right water fine there's a coffee shop around the corner whoa hang on you want us to go to another coffee shop yeah what's the big deal you even hang out with us we've lived here Christ knows how long and we never go to another coffee shop I do so do I all the time I practically never go there anymore unless I'm me you guys what who the hell do you people think you are how can you do that it's our star wait wait hang on hang on I go out to my way to support our local coffee shop I remain loyal and Carrie still won't go out with me maybe she won't go out with you because you're in there off wasn't she talking about getting some court order against you that was the last one besides no charges were officially filed if I had to abandon a place every time I was threaten with court proceedings I'd never leave the [ __ ] house hell I wouldn't be allowed into my own house no no you know what [ __ ] you guys I'm not doing this I'm going back to my coffee shop oh [ __ ] it I'm going home now I'm back in town at 7:00 you still coming tonight they women and may actually already be there spiritually speaking and spiritually speaking I'll be doing tonight is vka nzia right I'm up home to make myself beautiful you know back on out have a shower see you at 7 what did you just say what see you later I'm guessing cuz you're still wearing those clothes you're not going home either indeed good I can't be bothered either to the coffee shop can I drink from my FL why not you might want to go easy on it though you've been letting Dan drink Miss flask my attention has been firmly fixed on this Sudoku Square thought you hated Sudoku not when I'm replacing the numbers with dirty words ah CIA what have you been drinking H what have you been drinking from that flask oh that would be robbing alcohol now theia it's that nine letters you shouldn't be drinking rubbing alcohol but it's so much cheaper than vodka the effects are so simple what chronic organ failure I'll drink to that the words are supposed to read the same down as they do across you're doing it wrong when you a replace the numbers with words and be insert words like erections the real book kind of takes a back seat erections multiple yeah kind of out of the have to make it bigger story of my life it's okay dude I always imagine it really big I'm going to attribute that to the rubbing alcohol you knew he was drinking rubbing alcohol well when you reach the cheap end of booze it's all pretty similar besides it's 200 proof that's value for money right there I'm going to go and throw up Mak more for the good stuff I'll see you in a few what a hell much is in that fast is it just me or is Dan's sudden alcoholism a little unnerving now most things involving Dan un ner me for a short while it's just a matter of course should we do something about this n he'll wake up tomorrow with a hangover all hangovers and snap out of it wait how often has been go to the toilet how often does a bear [ __ ] in the woods what exactly how the hell am I supposed to know they keep the cleaning products on the toilet he's probably been topping it up [ __ ] it sticks like bleach but I diluted it so that's okay [ __ ] he on the pison cardio now we can't take him out like this he's a liability okay time for some aversion therapy okay Dan take the flask take the flask see now Dan I'm going to introduce you to a little friend of mine I call the red eye four rounds of espresso four rounds of vanilla whipped cream instant sobriety AR Cardiac Arrest double the flavor double the danger it's a little bit of streem Nothing by hars my friend where did you come up with that what do you think I do here I come up with new and expensive ways of potentially harming myself very expensive indeed I need a job again we going get that we'll make sure Dam doesn't die on us the only D I'll be doing is my shirt spilled bleach over it he drinks your bleach takes your chances is it Cry for Help thing or should we worried about escalation no I'm pretty sure it's just the flask nothing good can come from the flask sexy and dangerous things will come from box oh yes come on you can drink it on the way there you're eager to go I was under the impression you didn't like Johnny women and bear we even listening I don't need other reasons come on let's grab a taxi let's what happened tonight I think the band was rubbish I thought you said they were good they weren't good what the hell are these I know what this is you're loving this aren't you you're a bastard what this is my victory dance the reason I get up in the morning triumph over adversity it's what I'm all about what adversity the band wasn't that good and Johnny hasn't actually done anything to you the man is my Nemesis can't you see that sorry about that tonight guys we had a few uh technical problems so I know it was a bit rough I just wish it could have been better for you that's all hey I liked it me too I wasn't sure about it at first but after the third restart I really started to get into it well you can't take a kit with you huh ladies there dangerous what the hell is wrong with him how the hell did you think we were working today do you know how much I drink why'd you call and get me from my bed if it weren't working it was an accident I could have sworn we were on today besides you could check your own rotor once in a while oh I've got a rotor for you it says Ben 9:00 a.m. shut the [ __ ] up I don't like you with the hangover what the hell are you two doing here David needs David time Ben canit me we both working today it's not my fault this whiny hung of little [ __ ] can't read oh no I can read says Ben shut the [ __ ] up you deal with him you're a real [ __ ] when you hung over you know that how are you doing here this time anyway weing over this I'm always here is that a Sudoku book yes it's a Sudoku book and yes I'm okay with you know in it you jumping in today or what not today Bab baby going I sit here and bask in my own Glory Glory over what Glory over Johnny his band sucks I win simple you didn't really win though he went home with two girls and you ended up at a kebab shot with me and Tom it was Victory enough his band sucks mine doesn't you don't have a band well if I did it wouldn't suck as bad as his did H so you're going to sit here happy that his band sucked you know full well he went over with two girls last night one of which you were chatting up all night why do you guys have to keep bringing me down I'm going to sit here drink my red eyee play my Shoku and basking my shallow but perfectly satisfying Victory by the way where did Dan end up last night he wasn't ping me for a bed no wasn't with you no uh he n |

A5Sau_1GZNg | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5Sau_1GZNg | FIRST INTERVIEW 🗣| Gary Cahill signs for the club | gary welcome to afc bournemouth how pleased you to be here thank you yeah delighted i'm happy that it's all been done and finalised and today i'm looking forward to you know meeting the boys and the teammates tomorrow presume and just tell us a little bit about how it all came about i was in contact with a manager a few times over the summer um i was aware that he wanted to bring me to the club so it was an option for a little while and i was in the stage of my career where i felt like i needed just to have a little step back and think about what i wanted to do what was next um you know what's going to drive me to perform in the next season and things like that so there's a lot going through my head at a time i'm using regular contact and he always showed interest for me to come here and in the end like i said i've i've made the decision that i feel like this is the best place for me to be at this stage in my career and i'm looking forward to get started there are a lot of rumors and a lot of interest what what was it about afc bournemouth for you that you know stuck out i think about like i said touching on what i said earlier i think for me i need uh i wanted a goal i wanted something to to challenge me and this was a totally different challenge you know i've been fortunate to play in the premier league i think it was you know it might be what 17 years since i last played in in the championship when i was on loan um so it was difficult to obviously um come away from that at the same time i saw an opportunity to be involved in this journey i saw the squad has been very young very talented and a good manager in place and ultimately in and around getting promotion and i see that as for me has been a goal and a drive that i want to get my teeth sucked into this season so you know you mentioned the manager there you obviously were england teammates for a number of years just tell us a little bit about that relationship yeah i've always gotten well with him i've always gotten over him obviously i played with him um a lot younger than al albeit and he was a fantastic footballer he had a great attitude great passion desire to play i'm very talented and aside from that you know i know him slightly on a personal level and you know he's a very very nice guy and he's obviously coming to management done very well in the show the short of my time has been he's been in management um and it's something that i wanted to be a part of i he stressed to me what he was hoping for the year the way you know he sees his squad and and the characters and personalities that are in this squad and he saw that i could maybe help you know progress that on the pitch um and it's something that again like i said it's something that drove me i wanted to be a part of so yeah good relationship with him and uh you know i'm looking to give everything now for him the team and the fans this season and see what we can do he's just come in to see you a moment ago what does he have to say just said i'm delighted to see it to see you here like i said i've spoke too many times over over the course of the summer and this has been the longest period out of the game for me um that i've ever been involved in because you know when i've been in the international setup and you know going back a few years ago and the summers are very short you have three weeks maybe in between finishing a season and starting preseason so for me to take a good few weeks a couple of months away from the game i think it's been has been good for me i think the body of my mind is fresh and i'm ready now to to come back and i'm looking forward to playing you realize when you're away from the game that you miss it massively hence why i'm back and hence why i'm ready to to get cracking we've got such a young squad here as you say and you're such an experienced player yourself that's going to be absolutely crucial is that sort of mentorship role something that you really enjoy um yeah i hope i can bring something to these young boys you know i mean first and foremost i look at myself first and foremost i want to get myself up and running and sharp and contributing on a pitch it's not all about me just bringing an experience i want to try and bring you know my qualities on the pitch and in terms of playing and getting results that's the first and foremost and seconds that obviously my the experiences that i've had along the journey of my career are there for for the young boys to tap into i'm more than willing to help and i'm more than willing to try and drive these young players who have got bright futures ahead of them and and you know to have a terrific season i've started the campaign very well and yeah i'm all about just trying to win football matches and i'm all about driving the team as much as i possibly can so yeah we'll uh we'll see and how are you feeling physically because you know you said a moment ago you've had a little time out the game for you where do you feel that you're at i feel my bass fitness is very good well so when i say have a time out of the game i still train i stay i train quite hard in the the off season and so condition wise i feel good my weight's fine um i think like any football will tell you when you've been away from the group in terms of training um even a short side of gains in training and possession and the sharpness is where i just need to sharpen sharpen up over this next week or two now but the bass fitness is there so it's just fine tuning and sharpening myself up and getting ready for for the games i'm gonna reel off some achievements of yours now two premier leagues one champions league two europa leagues two fa cups and one league cup you mentioned the challenge of the championship how much are you looking forward to that and something new and hopefully what is a promotion push exactly that that's why i've come here i feel that this squad is good enough um to get promoted i feel that is is very hungry again speaking to the gaffer um he's told me the attitudes and the way that they've been working and again that's that's why i'm here i'm here i'm not here to to come and just play a few games in in the championship i'm here to try and get promoted and i'm here to try and drive the team to do that and i'm sure everyone's in that same mindset and same position so that's an exciting thing for me you've got thinking the stage of my career now that that excites me being able to do or to try and aim for something like that and hence why i made the decision to to obviously join this club this football club and ever since you did make that decision have you had much chance to sort of watch the team obviously we had that midweek win at birmingham yeah i watched the game yesterday yeah i watched the game last night um again great resort got the job done in the end and um like i said very exciting in terms of the players and the youthfulness of the team and so again they've started the campaign very very well so i hope i can contribute i want to get back in here and i want to get sharp and fit and get out there and see if i can help this squad of players to ultimately achieve their aim and in this season and to which they've started very well like i say and just finally you've obviously played at vitality stadium multiple times in your career what are your memories of sort of the place and the fans it's good it's one of the stadiums it's obviously not the the biggest of stadium but because of that you have the intensity of the fans you know um so i've been enjoyable times here um i've played him many times before and i'm looking forward to getting out in front of the supporters of fans and like i said ultimately just trying to help this club get to where they want to be and i can't wait to get started | AFC Bournemouth |

Sanyal and canoe yes sir another member given the opportunity to speak on the topic and related to the forensic science related to the forensic anthropology and forensic dentistry so my topic is basically on the basis of on the related to some metal in the so metal is coffee so but I am just limited to the photograph identification so I am just giving it this definition narrowing down to the photo anthropometry and the photo and face copy so how we work in our laboratory first we do the preparation of the case what actually we require then we do the research of the case what parameters can be used for the identification or the examination and the analysis then we use the imaging part and then we do the analysis and then expert or assist and after that we give the examination report and then we go to the court of law for the documentation and the appearance as an expert and give our expert opinion it to the court of law so then the whole process we follow in our laboratory once again I'm facing so I'm just discussing about the portal anthropometry means identification of an individual on their unique feature so you can see there are the hundred the meaning of stones and they all are unique in their shape in their size in their structure and similarly you can see the is not a retina is a leaf so leaf they have their different gains which is unique in their respective accordingly as human being also having a different kind of structure and they have the unique features so this unique feature identification or this analysis is done on the basis of parameters and that parameter that principles and that principles are basically in a four time principle of comparison principle of probability principle of analysis and peaceful of circumstance in fact like principle of comparison life should be comparing the like a male photograph can be compared with only with the male so and the probability the age gap or the photograph quality of the photograph or the pixel size or the photograph captured from the CCTV so a probability is always there for the elimination and the constantly or the unconsciously and on the basis of probability we reach to that conclusion either this a person a person is same or the different person and standard procedure for the analysis which is set by the different organizations and different Authority and in circumstance in fact like the fact like the yesterday regime that is first one case that person was not living but family member at least a child or in the assumption that father is the reading and he is sending the money so the circumstantial fact is also very very important for any case processing so as we know by definition vomit Rome Italy and the Scimitar is copy two different things and in this too so here Swami Toma tree and some it is for P so microscopy is defined a systematic technique to measure laser a leading body including head or fishes and on the photo graph it is known as so photo is known as photo anthropometry and for some it is cookie morphological characteristics of the human kind on the basis of visual like the portrait parlor then you make or when we ask for the sketch so what kind of features a person can explain about a person individual who has a scene so this is called a photo and verse for P and on this basis what problem we are basically facing during the examination number one the problem is that establish the identity of an unknown face that we do not know the who that individual what case is disordered even in the case of so on the basis of photo facial feature it is very tough to give any conclusive opinion that who is the person and without a person then recognition and identification of person is a real photo document like a photograph or present on the passport monitoring license for any identification national ID card or other card so any other features where the photograph is completely different in the in the real sense which is which is present on the other records like the our photograph on the Facebook or the social media is completely different than the word photograph we actually carry in our admitted documents like the diving license other or too much it then comparison of facial photos a different document and the different persons examination of Alize alteration intermittent digital Norfolk digital Norfolk nowadays is on a very high mode so digital morphing is the one problem and differentiation of real and created photographs so for that we use the digital forensic and in digital forensic we use the photo image processing either the photograph has been morphed or not I guess some characteristics of the faces has been morphed or three it is like a change in the eyes in the forehead or any other changes so that we do in our examination that is a one form earlier phase so type of cases receive a photograph and for the examination for the personal identification so these cases are dead clean either a human or a non human death claim will disputed will where the photograph of the individual it's someone said that photograph is clicked into into the like authority in front of both authority but the document showing it is not earth click in the authority the background and other things property registration marriage disputed like recently I received one case that there was a marriage certificate but the lady said that yeah she is not married to the person sent that certificate for the identification of the photographs and verification and matching with no available database with the person then examination and recruitment like the impersonation cases where someone go for the examination but other appear for joining and MMS pornography cases immigration modeling cases in a modeling cases of photograph identification is also very important and that is on the form of digital and we do the analysis of the metadata also from the that matching features like modeling in immorally there are many websites who take a photograph from the freelance photographers and that freelance photograph shows they can submit their photographs to the portal and for that big we are getting some payment as for the dominant condition of the website they have to pay something for the model but they are not paying that among to the model and then model are claiming that how you can use by photographs again mainly a villager they may be anyone they cannot be any it's not necessary that they always should be a model which is working into the film industry or that with a university or the TVC so our model can be anyone and that photograph this beauty is also coming for criminal investigation also we are seeing from the photograph which is captured from the CCTV like in a cases of ATM robbery the cases of murder in a cases of hidden them so we are developing the photograph the tools and fiber and by that we are doing the matching of the individual photographs for and facial features so challenges for I investigator is that we are receiving a photograph in a very poor quality and the cool quality like you can see this photograph so for the photo facial match the matching we require to match some anthropometric parameters and that into the metric parameters like a landmarks here we cannot mark so that is a challenge and this kind of cases are always very tough to identify either all these humans are all these person is same or not so for the death claim of photographs which is present on the policy or application form is completely different with the photographs they submitted after the death of the individual so apart from the human here in India there is maybe another country also so there is a cattle incidence plane and that leads to a very high amount of the frauds and sometimes we sometimes are we are receiving a cases for the cattle I need to be kisser I will all these cattle are same or not so it's again is a very tough job to identify either because in a human we have the landmarks and by that landmarks or the set authority set few parameters that by that way we can identify the individuals either they are the same or not but in cases of cattle which is very tough to identify so there is a case where we receive a to photograph from a will and person said that this is a photograph present on the will and the both person are not the same person and you can see the quality of the photograph is very very cool and on this basis is very tough to identify but when we do the digital forensic on this photograph because sometimes you know as for the low context is principal so some error they leave so some places they leave and by that place is when we let it start dropping that photograph we find the full photograph and due to the low low excels poor quality and then not clearly visible we cannot give any opinion of this but yes we given a photograph we developed this photograph from the document present and we can see the two pan card is available and to pan card with the same name with a different spelling mistakes it means there is some charges of forgery it's one individual is not involved for such kind of will like the execution of the bill so some kind of forger is available so we have to use different parameters apart from the set parameters for during the investigation so I miss cases in my cases this is a famous case of bindiya face which looked a similar of the mr. Momo I think but when the forensic laboratory they examine I think a CFS a Chandigarh they examine and they came to the conclusion that both photographs or not of the same individual challenges which we are facing and during the examination that a capturing device when we go for the metadata of the any digital database of the capturing device each progression twin faces see it stepping through the different tools similar versus same we always some similar and some same cases filters nowadays we are using a filters we all when we post our photograph on Instagram or Facebook we use the different kind of filters in will filter and third-party a filter also be a reason then 10 year challenge then your challenge you must have read that at any a challenge was run by the facebook on a facebook to collect the data bits of the individual to make some artificial intelligence tools which which is used which can be used for the facial recognition and the face forever so in a fiercer photograph we are receiving that someone has given a photograph of the early age on application form and predict that his age is 46 year and he is getting a benefit of the policy and by that getting at that benefit on the policy he's able to get more advantage and they are using a fresh air so accidental cases are too few short are doing secondary identifier like mole jewelry ear piercing and if some moles or jelly is present or mole is present and by the some LED treatments they remove that moles so it's very tough for the rely on the secondary identifier although secondary identifier sometimes play a very important role so the photo facial treatment like the light-emitting diodes like a DD twins and make up a photograph usually which we receive in a major dispute photograph we used in a in a marriage dispute we receive a photograph which is used with our full makeup and a surgery photograph individual who done surgery plastic surgery or accidental any deformities interphase due to the accident so these are the challenges like this is our case of the famous actress Rekha so here you can see the LED treatments of the removal of the moles and use of the most so this is the one or if just we rely on the secondary identifier we cannot reach to any conclusion that this secondary identifier is useful or not either it is can be considered for the admissible evidence or not a progression with this permission he is a like reporter of the news 24 I use his photograph so you can see here the his photograph of the age of 8 year and then 24 year and now he is around 40 years so you can see the changes into the photograph so this age progression is also because once they purchase any policy or they include some document bill or other things and a claimant came after 50 year or after 30 years so we are facing an issue of the age progression that how we can reach to the conclusion either the same person is in but yes there are something parameters I will discuss in the later slide you can see the symmetry symmetry into the nose you can see the asymmetry into the i-pro here is style you can see the hair is time from the age of 7 8 year to the 23 year is a similar so some in some places it's very much possible but in some cases it is not possible to reach to the conclusion so here you can see anyone can identify and even can reach a hand anyone can create a hand who can identify we see how money you have attended the lecture so I'm not allowing you Jefferson okay yes it is you it is you around sir it is not me anyone else Paulus yes Aamir Khan no it is not on you can anyone else ok so see the how age progression is I'm just trying to mix them into this as an interactive also so he is a famous government question document examiner bowhunter Tsinghua MA and this photograph is of his I think six three year or seven year and after with his permission we received fund some photographs so you can see age progression changes when he was a 13 or 14 year and you can see when he started to Boeing a after the polish past 17 year and then in a college you can see the features a cemetery you can see you can see the eyeballs you can see the hairstyle how it is moving then when he passed the college then again here and he joined the gqd similar then again he a different hairstyle so can we identify the photograph with this photograph and this photo it is very difficult during the age progression so you can see the different ages and we collected a photograph of his present now many of you can identify it looks as he looks now so this is a his last year photographs so age progression is very very important to understand but when we go for the in distance measurement and we go for the anthropomorphic and this is calculations so definitely we reach to some conclusion and but yes this is not 100 question but based on some probability and how the photograph has been taken how we have disease the photographs so this is another you can see the phase F material aging you threw the face up you can see the different progression of the ages ah okay now again I am just giving the task can anyone identify either these photographs or same or not can anyone identify apart from the actual person since I see is also into the lecture no one okay so Poonam yes so say in which okay oh you have already attended that I think yes that same so okay wash wash him yes sir okay have one more time sir okay since p.m. okay in a planar face he looked at both hard the same but actually they are not the same I think scissor is also in the station so first photograph is the scissor and second photograph is some other girl random girl who is sitting in the metro and one of our office colleague he clicked xmm was is looking like a scissor man so when we do like did the comparison a prima facie is Lucas same but actually it is not the same so on that basis we reach to the conclusion that this is not the same and you can see the Viera different things like eyebrow is similar nose is similar apart from some thickness infinity shoe but actually when we did the measurement they are not the they both are the different what are the different worth twin cases many of you know they are the expert and a cushion document and twin and this is a famous couple semaphore drinking and pinky-winky so we are facing a problem in the identical twin faces also once we do the anther photomeatery so similar and if you find that some kind of this these kind of photographs which is very identical then it's very tough to identify and give any opinion face at age progression many people are taking advantage into the policy about the fascia and face wrapping also so there are many tools which is available for the face flipping and by this face wrapping they are just wrapping the face and recently I think yesterday I heard that one song of the movie Karan Johar they just say strap of 30 C Kapoor so the face wrapping is very very very very tough to identify and what level of the editing they have done into the video so that is a one difficulty and this is a memes you all have read that LHS versus RSS so how you can how it's difficult to identify individual so and all of you know him and you can see a similarity between two person so as they both have the famous so no one is having any doubt either they are matching or not but once you've compared with the anthropologist is very difficult to reach to a final conclusion about fun for sumito anthropometry is not working very much on this parameter in this photographs but yet anthro is copy is working a lot in this photograph so you can see the asymmetry into the both nose part and the ipod and the lip part so in throw is copy is more like giving them more result than the anthropometry and here you all see you can see you all have seen that like you must have all have seen that dentist part so why dentists is important in the into the photograph to identify a individual or the basis basis of dental parameters so because first our impressions go through the smile and you can see that even the iGrow is missing but many of you have not noticed that eyebrow is missing but you can see here there is a full eyebrow is missing but our first focus on the dental part so that side dentistry is very very important to take for the photo facial recognition also and for that professor Amelia has developed one applications that you can upload your photograph with your selfie with your country name and the name so he is creating a database better he will explain tomorrow about that software so in a facial component mode our parameters we were taking for the standard procedures and this is change for Caesar was sent by the facial identification scientific working group so official identification scientific working group there they have set several parameters for the identification like skin face head composition overhead eyes nose mouth neck facial line facial mark fish head face head outline here I grow cheeks your chin jaw line facial hairs scars alterations so one by one like I'm just going to do in a faster way so you can see the skin there are overall textures different kind of luminescence in the color but it is very tough to identify in the photograph because of the treatment with the digital media through the filters and through the photoshop and and also the paper on which we are printing the photographs is so very very important to understand the quality of the photograph and the GSM value on which people they are printing the photograph face and head outlines is important and the composition these are the characteristics these are the measurement during the traditional ideal facial proportions so here you can see the ABC which is divided into the different part and by that measurement we reach to the conclusion either this photograph is of the one individual or not and not all on only one parameter but considering all the 18 parameters conclusive opinion thumb or the opinion from that either this is a probability of the high opinion 9 degree opinion you must have read about the 9 degree opinion so which degree we are going to I'll give the opinion is depend upon the what kind of photograph available with us so here is another important hair style hair shape hair texture symmetry dentist density of the hair and the peak of the hair forehead lines like here line right side and the left side also cranial badnesses pattern so these are the parameters also once we receive a photograph of the individual who showing such kind of parameter so this is the another parameter then forehead is another parameter for itself and the bra is is eyebrow as another parameter which is taken for the examination during the examination and the ice like inter cancel distance interpupillary distance right Alicia's openings right I am eyelets and left upper eyelids either they are in the symmetrical manner and what are the asymmetry present so these are parameters which is defined by the several anthropologist several throw poetry books so 6 is another these are the taken by the like the facial identification scientific working group so these are parameters was followed by the facial and scientific working group and they given up this protocols I'll email you everyone and that photograph also that manual also so that you can read in a detail about the manual and how the forensic identification scientific working group is working for the facial identification so known as the nose is another important characteristics like those outline knows who knows nasal body in a circuit laser paste this will like the nostril and Columbia are so different other things we have so in this if the photograph is of the site then nasal body measurement of the nasal body laser deep so doing for doing the measurement we are using a tool for getting an actual angle and actual measurement and for that we are using a dizzy miser dizzy miser is a tool which is used for the measurement on the photographs and by it is actual proportion photographs and using the actual parameter stamp you can set into the pixels you can set into the different millimeter units here is our another component which is important and you can see the asymmetry into the year and other parameters like here HELOCs because so these are the parameter which is used also during the examination mouth shape overall mouth upper lip lower lip these are the other parameters chin and jaw lines and bonilla angles neck overall net and the different kind of shapes of the neck to bed height and the prominence we took during the examination everything is depend upon the how the photographs how let go period the photographs is available and what all parameters is seeing in we can see into the photograph so facial hairs and this is another like facial hair of the upper lip and the lower lip and this is sometimes my important please the once we do the patiently combination where the full photographs is not available then facial lines these are the different lines you will get the detail into the manual as here the manual on the email so manual of the forensic identification like facial identification scientific walking so scar marks and the facial marks so attrition components PRC makeup tattoo like the if there is different type of available on face or on a neck or other parts so that plays sometimes a very important fold or identification of an individual of the pieces of their facial features so what actually required for reaching to a reliable result for a photo anthropometry so for reaching our reliable conclusion we require a sufficient resolution and focus to resolve features a landmark of interest whatever the landmarks I will show you one table we have so a minimal compression of the photograph is minimal distortion is required same viewpoint same lighting source known focal length and it is very tough to get the known for Berlin because if we are giving a photograph with a digital format then definitely we can see through the emitter data what are the focal lengths of the particular photograph lens distortion subject here subject distances angle known to the head tilt same aspect ratio same poles short time interval between the photograph means in a age progression is so very tough to reach to a final conclusion if if the exhibit or means of photograph is on a very less number but if we had the photograph in a good number then we can easily reach to the that parameters so that parameters can be easily achieved when we get the less time interval sought time interval photographs and similar expression similar expression like as I said smile as teeth is another parameter which can be taken for the identification so we have also develop on the we have also developed one our manual for the working of the photo facial identification in our laboratory how we do the examination so we take a morphological features like the different shapes of a head triangular oval round diamond shape is quite hard then we disentangle forehead like a broad forehead narrow forehead straight forehead or the god forehead m-step forehead sharp forehead and a huge amount shape forehead then different type of forehead like a plump rounded so these are the categories and different eyebrows shape as is safe or the hard angle or the soft angled state rounded and we have considered this by the forensic like facial identification scientific working group manual also different kind of eye shapes of the eyes like round eyes and polarize and the protruding downtown turned so close at eyes wide-set eyes color of the eyes but it's play a very less role because this due to the distortion in the photograph camera which is then different shape of the nose through pH Roman so these are the so little Copic features like an throws for tech features morphological features which we see into the photograph apart from the anthropometry so so these are the different shapes of the leaves which is used for the individual we do it is vary from individual to individual and on that basis seeing the symmetry or the asymmetry between the lips or size and shape and different shape of the year also we take shape like as I say in a square shape or it's a pointed year or so narrow you're sticking around here three ear lobes or attached you know loads so here structure is a stage sling flat wave curly so these are the another parameters color not playing very important roles so these are the nth row like the nth row is copic features which we are taking for the examination and apart from the interest Copic features we take some landmarks for the anthropometry features like an s-1 a Theon and other features and on all these parameters on all these landmarks we developed some measurement like like the physiognomic facial index and this index by calculating the official height and the width of the diagrammatic arch and then morphological facial index morphological upper facial index our facial index so deer are the few indices which we use during the examination of the photographs so these are the few these are the index abuses helpful in reach to the conclusion either the photograph is of the same individual or other individual so like this we mark the four photographs like a facial how you can calculate the facial ID so these two landmarks how you can use the dis lens so these two hand and mark is how you can calculate the toes nose length or the face then so these are the landmark which is used for identification into the to photograph this we have developed in our laboratory and we are using this and we have done the analysis on the several photographs then we reach to the conclusion this yes these landmarks can be used to the further identification but it definitely is depend upon the how good photographs we are receiving and how many all parameter wall parameters we are getting for the examination then secondly identifiers like cut mark mall or the beauty marks scars due to the surgery and other things so identification of the photograph available this photograph into the record and after the accident or to the specially if we give this kind of photographs then is very difficult to reach a conclusion on a letter score big features and also on the basis of a matching pieces and throw momentary measurements so these are the accidental damages and or any hi easily and a photograph particularly in the DVI cases any persons photograph is not clearly visible then it's very difficult to these to the conclusion on just on the basis of that father it should teachers then we take the beard and features then makeup and type of makeup temporary makeup semi-permanent makeup so lips before so these are the parameter which we use for the this is the dental measurement also useful for the identification for this battery maybe you can explain out is important and by this we do the identification of photograph and the measure we do the anthropometric measurement like the maximum facial height maximum facial weight and then the maximum 3 side maximum face bit maximum eyeline nessa line so these are measurement of the photographs parameters and on this basis we calculate the indices and by calculating the indices we reach to the conclusion and by ten thirds for big features like a face shape forehead comparing from the exhibit and the which we are getting into the like question and the photograph and the admitted photograph so on this basis we reach to the conclusion that either individual is team or the two different individual so this is all I like one to tell about the photo facial identification which we are using I'm just allowing you all to you can type your question so there is a question from the poonam so I am just unloading the Poonam yes Poonam is there any software you used for the comparison us earlier several software available for the comparison like triangulation technique to be anything but yes we are using that through the like manual measurement we are using and we are using this you see my speed tool digitizer and I'm just your keyword is analyzer and this visor one photograph easily measure the individual faces and if so if we want to meet measure anything here so we can like the we can do a measurement from here if you just want to measure this distance from this place to this place you can here you can find the measurement size and by that we reach to the conclusion okay yes usually my question is that it's and can i play in play any role a kind of role photo features and it does some you can eyes play the new role in the photo photo couple teachers yes I explained that different kind of shape of the eye is different kind of turbulence in the eye so these are the parameters this is useful for the identification so I am going to take the question from the chat okay Herman is asking a CMYK and RBG analysis is meta yes it matter depend upon the photographs which we receive either if you are going to match with the color then it is only important otherwise it is not that important on the Shweta Sharma she want to ask if the photograph in a question does not receive position so it's very difficult to reach a final conclusion madam but yes if for that we ask for more and more exhibit and if there is only one or two photographs available then we cannot reach to any factor Boreas was to ask something for yourself let me unmute you sir yes sir yes very nice presentation after ingesting I learned many new things so I was just wondering that in spectroscopy and words have a somatic copy and answers for P so how you have given your opinion Part A and Part B of the question is during quote evidences during cross-examination you must have faced so many cross-examination and universe space what was the most embarrassing questions which have been asked during cross-examination when you have given evidence file this and which have stimulated you to go for the more research and more experience and made you to think over that how the quick I could have done better so first I like to tell you once we receive a photograph for such kind of opinion so we asked for though if there is not adequate elect not sufficient number of the photograph for the comparison so we do not give our opinion and we say that the week not piece to a fine conclusion and we can be used to give a probable opinion which is helpful for the insurance company for deciding their claims either they wants to play a p.a claims or not for second question your answer that winner will dispute and other things the most interesting question they asked that photograph you have compared is a three centimeter in height but actually individual they do not have two three centimeter three centimeter the face length so face length is around six to seven centimeter so it's a ignorance of the advocate that once we say that is a large version they said no no no tell me either you say actual foot size photograph or not so these kind of reliable questions generally we face into port of law and definitely is challengeable it's a challenge about this always giving opinion on the photo facial eligible so we avoid opinion if we are not having a good number of photographs for the comparison as I definitely don't mean but for the probable opinion is there are some secondary identifier or a few unique estimate legal parameters awesome you need like the anthropic parameters we find then there is a cut mark or the scar and if there is a very less gap between the two photographs then we reach to that can we give our probable opinion to the insurance company that yes these two person are the same or these two person out the disk and we used to give the opinion basically what kind of fraud we are receiving into them from the incidence industry that our photo morphing photo sphere sweating it we are receiving we are receive of cases where the similarity between the father and the son photograph is present and they present a father photograph initiative son photographs so it's depend upon case to case sir but it's a not a very easy task to give opinion in every case thank you very much dr. Kunze thank you sir pooja madam doctor Kuchipudi asked the question can you please throw some light comparison of the twins yes it's very like the place we compare first the anthropic measurement and if you're not getting a result and the percentage is more than the difference of the percentage is more than the 5% then we asked for some other photograph different postures and you go for the second year I did like if there are some moles present if there are some difference in to the hair lines or if there are some difference in to the asymmetry of the lips asymmetry of the nodes so we give prevail opinion on this cases and if in some twins we find a very prominent features where we give the reffing opinion yes these are the two twins but having a different parameters so is is there any scoring in the somet roma tree which can make any easy in a facial edges I think is one the all the indices calculation how can we practically do this if anyone wants to learn that you are welcome and shred is question number two maximum let's see as you asked anything that we have the a six to eight parameters and it was decided into the making in 1975 the Nestor I think NCR Venus no time for zero but for photo facial where a meters the facial identification scientific working group they suggest that we can take on maximum parameters and which is which can give a more permanent report result we cannot reach to we cannot give opinion on only one parameters like if there is only one parameters matching or not matching so taking 18 parameters of the interest anthro s Kofi and the anthropometry all parameters of the whole calculation of the poetry then we can give the opinion but there is no fixed parameter as for my knowledge how long symmetric graph is going to be for identify a course and it sir Tyrese of madam and it depend upon the how many cases how many things we are is there any specific software so there is a software for this for the work but it's not giving our very prominent result so we have to do the verification through the software and the manual measurement also this morphing software is commonly used to see the progression in the ears they share and there are several application so available into the market and are you able to detect colored contact lenses used in the change color of es it is possible to detect different layers we can find it in that so sir any reference book on the topic I parallel send the books I have few parameters and I'll send to all the participant what parameter can be considered for the facial identification is the individual case has been distorted as it tastes very difficult to consider the honor and one parameters but yes just on the basis of facial just on the basis of actual accidental cases we require the history of the accident also to give any appeal or give any our view to the agencies either when accident took place but on the photo facial identification is a challenge as I already mentioned in my slice dr. hardy once sir it is possible to already person with plastic surgery it's very difficult so far Oscar gives some light of the 3d facial reconstruction process I am NOT the expert of the 3d facial reconstruction process expert Sao Paulo definitely he if you are in the group one sir is a more prominent person who can answer this portion can be compared with the Bertillon system of ID yes we are using few many parameters of the Birdland system is used in to the anthropometry how much percentage of comparison needed in questions is tender photographs a difference is less than is difference is more than 10% then we reach to the conclusion that there are not they are not of the same individual what Roman addressed Juanito this this comparison parameter so these are all comparable parameters we explained into our report and this is like the we explained it along with a case number and all the statics which yield which will be calculate and all these the anthropic parameter which we considered and then we reached write a content I will share one as I have your number I'll save the format of the report how we present our report it to the pooja madam what is the range of variation acceptable in case of Bin's ma'am even the forensic Alex facial identification scientific group they have not decided any variation acceptable in the twins so I think I have answered the maximum question oh thank you everyone for attending to this session tomorrow we have a panel discussion at the same time and we all four panelists to available for your questions [Music] | Forensic 365 | UCg2JMYpFJ3_c7BGHMwI5M3A | 2020-04-29 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 7,317 | 40,352 |

aDgRF9IsOUA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDgRF9IsOUA | Alfred Russel Wallace | Wikipedia audio article | Alfred Russel Wallace the 8th of January 1823 to the 7th of November 1913 was a British naturalist explorer geographer anthropologist and biologist he is best known for independently conceiving the theory of evolution through natural selection his paper on the subject was jointly published with some of Charles Darwin's writings in 1858 this prompted Darwin to publish his own ideas in on the Origin of Species Wallace did extensive field work first in the Amazon River Basin and then in the Malay Archipelago where he identified the final divide now termed the Wallace line which separates the Indonesian archipelago into two distinct parts a western portion in which the animals are largely of Asian origin and an eastern portion where the fauna reflect Australasia he was considered the 19th century's leading expert on the geographical distribution of animal species and is sometimes called the father of biogeography Wallace was one of the leading evolutionary thinkers of the 19th century and made many other contributions to the development of evolutionary theory besides being co-discoverer of natural selection these included the concept of warning coloration in animals and the Wallace effect a hypothesis on how natural selection could contribute to speciation by encouraging the development of barriers against hybridization Wallace's 1904 book man's place in the universe was the first serious attempt by a biologist to evaluate the likelihood of life on other planets he was also one of the first scientists to write a serious exploration of the subject of whether there was life on Mars Wallace was strongly attracted to unconventional ideas such as evolution his advocacy of spiritualism and his belief in a non-material origin for the higher mental faculties of humans strained his relationship with some members of the scientific establishment aside from scientific work he was a social activist who was critical of what he considered to be an unjust social and economic system capitalism in 19th century Britain his interest in natural history resulted in his being one of the first prominent scientists to raise concerns over the environmental impact of human activity he was also a prolific author who wrote on both scientific and social issues his account of his adventures and observations during his explorations in Singapore Indonesia and Malaysia the Malay Archipelago was both popular and highly regarded since its publication in 1869 it has never been out of print Wallace had financial difficulties throughout much of his life his Amazon and Far Eastern trips were supported by the sale of specimens he collected and after he lost most of the considerable money he made from those sales in unsuccessful investments he had to support himself mostly from the publications he produced unlike some of his contemporaries in the British scientific community such as Darwin and Charles Lyell he had no family wealth to fall back on and he was unsuccessful in finding a long-term salary position receiving no regular income until he was awarded a small government pension through Darwin's efforts in 1881 topic biography topic early life Alfred Wallace was born in the Welsh flan baddack near Usk Monmouthshire he was the eighth of nine children of Thomas Vere Wallace and Mary Ann Grinnell Mary Ann was English Thomas Wallace was probably of Scottish ancestry his family like many Wallace's claimed a connection to William Wallace a leader of Scottish forces during the Wars of Scottish independence in the thirteenth century Thomas Wallace graduated in law but never practiced law he owned some income generating property but bad investments and failed business ventures resulted in a steady deterioration of the family's financial position his mother was from a middle-class English family from Hertford north of London when Wallace was five years old his family moved to Hertford there he attended Hertford grammar school until financial difficulties forced his family to withdraw him in 1836 when he was aged 14 Wallace then moved to London to board with his older brother John a 19 year old apprentice builder this was a stopgap measure until William his oldest brother was ready to take him on as an apprentice surveyor while in London alfred attended lectures and read books at the london Mechanics Institute here he was exposed to the radical political ideas of the Welsh social reformer Robert Owen and of Thomas Paine he left London in 1837 to live with William and work as his apprentice for six years at the end of 1839 they moved to Kington Hereford near the Welsh border before eventually settling at needs in Glamorgan in Wales between 1840 and 1843 Wallis did land surveying work in the countryside of the West of England and Wales by the end of 1843 William's business had declined due to difficult economic conditions and Wallis at the age of 20 left in January one result of Wallace's early travels as a modern controversy about his nationality since Wallis was born in Monmouthshire some sources have considered him to be Welsh however some historians have questioned this because neither of his parents was Welsh his family only briefly lived in Monmouthshire the Welsh people Wallis knew in his childhood considered him to be English and because Wallis himself consistently referred to himself as English rather than Welsh even when writing about his time in Wales 1 Wallis scholar has stated that the most reasonable interpretation is therefore that he was an Englishman born in Wales after a brief period of unemployment he was hired as a master at the collegiate school in Leicester to teach drawing map making and surveying Wallis spent many hours at the library in Leicester he read an essay on the principle of population by Thomas Robert Malthus and one evening he met the entomologist Henry Bates Bates was 19 years old and in 1843 he had published a paper on beetles in the journal zoologist he befriended Wallace and started him collecting insects William died in March 1845 and Wallace left his teaching position to assume control of his brother's firm in Neath but his brother John and he were unable to make the business work after a few months Wallace found work as a civil engineer for a nearby firm that was working on a survey for a proposed railway in the Vale of Neath wallace's work on the survey involved spending a lot of time outdoors in the countryside allowing him to indulge his new passion for collecting insects Wallace persuaded his brother John to join him in starting another architecture and civil engineering firm which carried out a number of projects including the design of a building for the Neath Mechanics Institute founded in 1843 William Jevons the founder of that Institute was impressed by Wallace and persuaded him to give lectures there on science and engineering in the autumn of 1846 John and he purchased a cottage near needs where they lived with their mother and sister Fanny his father had died in 1843 during this period he read avidly exchanging letters with Bates about Robert Chambers anonymously published evolutionary treatise vestiges of the natural history of creation Charles Darwin's the voyage of the Beagle and Charles Lyell's principles of geology topic exploration and study of the natural world inspired by The Chronicles of earlier traveling natural ists including alexander von humboldt charles darwin and especially william henry edwards Wallace decided that he too wanted to travel abroad as a naturalist in 1848 Wallace and Henry Bates left for Brazil aboard the mischief their intention was to collect insects and other animals specimens in the Amazon rainforest for their private collections selling the duplicates to museums and collectors back in Britain in order to fund the trip Wallace also hoped to gather evidence of the transmutation of species Wallace and Bates spent most of their first year collecting near vellum then explored inland separately occasionally meeting to discuss their findings in 18-49 they were briefly joined by another young Explorer botanist Richard spruce along with Wallace's younger brother Herbert Herbert left soon thereafter dying two years later from yellow fever but spruce like Bates would spend over ten years collecting in South America Wallace continued charting the Rio Negro for four years collecting specimens and making notes on the peoples and languages he encountered as well as the geography flora and fauna on the 12th of July 1852 Wallace embarked for the UK on the brig Helen after 26 days at sea the ships cargo caught fire and the crew was forced to abandon ship all of the specimens Wallace had on the ship mostly collected during the last and most interesting two years of his trip were lost he managed to save a few notes and pencil sketches and little else Wallace and the crew spent ten days in an open boat before being picked up by the brig jordison which was sailing from Cuba to London the Jordison provisions were strained by the unexpected passengers but after a difficult passage on very short rations the ship finally reached its destination on the 1st of October 1852 after his return to the UK Wallace spent 18 months in London living on the insurance payment for his lost collection and selling a few specimens that had been shipped back to Britain prior to his starting his exploration of the Rio Negro until the Indian town of Geneva on Orinoco River Basin and as far west as my guru Mitu on the you au pays River he was deeply impressed by the grandeur of the virgin forests by the variety and beauty of the butterflies and birds and by his first encounter with Indians on the UL pays River area an experience he never forgot during this period despite having lost almost all of the notes from his South American expedition he wrote six academic papers which included on the monkeys of the Amazon and two books palm trees of the Amazon and their uses and travels on the Amazon he also made connections with a number of other British naturalist s-- most significantly Darwin from 1854 to 1862 age 31 to 39 Wallace traveled through the Malay Archipelago or East Indies now Singapore Malaysia and Indonesia to collect specimens for sale and to study Natural History a set of 80 bird skeletons he collected in Indonesia and associated documentation can be found in the Cambridge University Museum of Zoology Wallace had as many as a hundred assistants who collected on his behalf among these his most trusted assistant was a Malay by the name of Ali who later called himself Ali Wallace while Wallace collected insects many of the bird specimens were collected by his assistants including around 5,000 collected and prepared by Ali Wallace's observations of the marked zoological differences across a narrow strait in the archipelago led to his proposing the zoo a geographical boundary now known as the Wallace Line Wallace collected more than 126 thousand specimens in the Malay Archipelago more than 80,000 beetles alone several thousand of them represented species new to science one of his better known species descriptions during this trip is that of the gliding tree frog Rakha forest rupaul - known as Wallace's flying frog while he was exploring the archipelago he refined his thoughts about evolution and had his famous insight on natural selection in 1858 he sent an article outlining his theory to Darwin it was published along with a description of Darwin's own theory in the same year accounts of his studies and adventures there were eventually published in 1869 as the Malay Archipelago which became one of the most popular books of scientific exploration of the 19th century and has never been out of print it was praised by scientists such as Darwin to whom the book was dedicated and Charles Lyell and by non-scientists such as the novelist Joseph Conrad who called it his favorite bedside companion and used it as source of information for several of his novels especially Lord Jim topic returned to England marriage and children in 1862 Wallace returned to England where he moved in with his sister Fanny Simms and her husband Thomas while recovering from his travels Wallace organized his collections and gave numerous lectures about his adventures and discoveries to scientific societies such as the Zoological Society of London later that year he visited Darwin at downe house and became friendly with both Charles Lyell and Herbert Spencer during the 1860s Wallace wrote papers and gave lectures defending natural selection he also corresponded with Darwin about a variety of topics including sexual selection warning coloration and the possible effect of natural selection on hybridization and the divergence of species in 1865 he began investigating spiritualism after a year of courtship Wallace became engaged in 1864 to a young woman whom in his autobiography he would only identify as Miss L miss L was the daughter of Lewis Leslie who played chess with Wallace however to Wallace's great dismay she broke off the engagement in 1866 Wallace married Annie mitten Wallace had been introduced to MIT and through the botanist Richard spruce who had befriended Wallace in Brazil and who was also a good friend of Annie mittens father William mitten an expert on mosses in 1872 Wallace built the Dell a house of concrete on land he leased in Gray's in Essex where he lived until 1876 the Wallace's had three children Herbert 1867 to 1874 violet 1869 to 1945 and William 1871 to 1951 topic financial struggles in the late 1860's and 1870s Wallace was very concerned about the financial security of his family while he was in the Malay Archipelago the sale of specimens had brought in a considerable amount of money which had been carefully invested by the agent who sold the specimens for Wallace however on his return to the UK Wallace made a series of bad investments in railways and minds that squandered most of the money and he found himself badly in need of the proceeds from the publication of the Malay Archipelago despite assistance from his friends he was never able to secure a permanent salary position such as a curatorship in a museum to remain financially solvent Wallace worked grading government examinations row 25 papers for publication between 1872 and 1876 for various modest sums and was paid by Lyell and Darwin to help edit some of their own works in 1876 Wallace needed a 500 pounds advance from the publisher of the geographical distribution of animals to avoid having to sell some of his personal property Darwin was very aware of Wallace's financial difficulties and lobbied long and hard to get Wallace awarded a government pension for his lifetime contributions to science when the 200 pounds annual pension was awarded in 1881 it helped to stabilize Wallace's financial position by supplementing the income from his writings topic social activism John Stuart Mill was impressed by remarks criticizing English society that Wallace had included in the Malay Archipelago Mill asked him to join the general committee of his land tenure reform Association but the Association dissolved after Mills death in 1873 Wallace had written only a handful of articles on political and social issues between 1873 and 1879 when at the age of 56 he entered the debates over trade policy and land reform in earnest he believed that rural land should be owned by the state and leased to people who would make whatever use of it that would benefit the largest number of people thus breaking the often abused power of wealthy landowners in British society in 1881 Wallace was elected as the first president of the newly formed land nationalization Society in the next year he published a book land nationalization its necessity and its aims on the subject he criticised the UK's free trade policies for the negative impact they had on working class people in 1889 Wallace read Looking Backward by Edward Bellamy and declared himself a socialist despite his earlier foray as a speculative investor after reading progress and poverty the best-selling book by the progressive land reformist Henry George Wallace described it as undoubtedly the most remarkable and important book of the present century Wallace opposed eugenics an idea supported by other prominent nineteenth-century evolutionary thinkers on the grounds that contemporary society was too corrupt and unjust to allow any reasonable determination of who was fit or unfit in the 1890 article human selection he wrote those who succeed in the race for wealth are by no means the best or the most intelligent in 1898 Wallace wrote a paper advocating a pure paper money system not backed by silver or gold which impressed the economist Irving Fisher so much that he dedicated his 1920 book stabilizing the dollar to Wallace Wallace wrote on other social and political topics including his support for women's suffrage and repeatedly on the dangers and wastefulness of militarism in an essay published in 1899 Wallace called for popular opinion to be rallied against warfare by showing people less than pre greater than slash pre greater than dot-dot-dot that all modern wars are dynastic that they are caused by the ambition the interests the jealousies and the insatiable greed of power of their rulers or of the great mercantile and financial classes which have power and influence over their rulers and that the results of war are never good for the people who yet bear all its birth ins in a letter published by the Daily Mail in 1909 with aviation in its infancy he advocated an international treaty to ban the military use of aircraft arguing against the idea less than pre greater than slash pre greater than dot-dot-dot that this new horror is inevitable and that all we can do is to be sure and be in the front rank of the aerial assassins for surely no other term can so fiddly describe the dropping of say ten thousand bombs at midnight into an enemy's capital from an invisible flight of airships in 1898 Wallis published a book entitled the wonderful century its successes and its failures about developments in the 19th century the first part of the book covered the major scientific and technical advances of the century the second part covered what Wallis considered to be it social failures including the destruction and waste of wars and arms races the rise of the urban poor and the dangerous conditions in which they lived and worked a harsh criminal justice system that failed to reform criminals abuses in a mental health system based on privately owned sanatoriums the environmental damage caused by capitalism and the evils of European colonialism Wallace continued his social activism for the rest of his life publishing the book the revolt of democracy just weeks before his death topic further scientific work Wallace continued his scientific work in parallel with his social commentary in 1880 he published island life as a sequel to the geographic distribution of animals in November 1886 Wallace began a 10-month trip to the United States to give a series of popular lectures most of the lectures were on Darwinism evolution through natural selection but he also gave speeches on biogeography spiritualism and socio-economic reform during the trip he was reunited with his brother John who had emigrated to California years before he also spent a week in Colorado with the American botanist Alice Eastwood as his guide exploring the flora of the Rocky Mountains and gathering evidence that would lead him to a theory on how glaciation might explain certain commonalities between the mountain flora of Europe Asia and North America which he published in 1891 in the paper English and American flowers he met many other prominent American Naturalist sand viewed their collections his 1889 book Darwinism used information he collected on his American trip and information he had compiled for the lectures topic death on the 7th of November 1913 Wallace died at home in the country house he called Old Orchard which he had built a decade earlier he was 90 years old his death was widely reported in the press the New York Times called him the last of the Giants belonging to that wonderful group of intellectuals that included among others Darwin Huxley Spencer Lyell and Owen whose daring investigations revolutionized and evolutionized the thought of the century another commentator in the same edition said no apology need be made for the few literary or scientific follies of the author of that great book on the Malay Archipelago some of Wallace's friends suggested that he be buried in Westminster Abbey but his wife followed his wishes and had him buried in the small Cemetery at broad stone Dorset several prominent British scientists formed a committee to have a medallion of Wallace placed in Westminster Abbey near where Darwin had been buried the medallion was unveiled on the 1st of November 1915 topic theory of evolution topic early evolutionary thinking unlike Darwin Wallace began his career as a traveling naturalist already believing in the transmutation of species the concept had been advocated by jean-baptiste Lamarck gia Freud saint-hilaire Erasmus Darwin and Robert grant among others it was widely discussed but not generally accepted by leading natural ists and was considered to have radical even revolutionary connotations prominent anatomist sand geologists such as George Cuvier Richard Owen Adam Sedgwick and Charles Lyell attacked it vigorously it has been suggested that Wallace accepted the idea of the transmutation of species in part because he was always inclined to favor radical ideas in politics religion and science and because he was unusually open to marginal even fringe ideas in science he was also profoundly influenced by Robert Chambers work vestiges of the natural history of creation a highly controversial work of popular science published anonymously in 1844 that advocated an evolutionary origin for the solar system the earth and living things Wallace wrote to Henry Bates in 1845 I have a rather more favorable opinion of the vestiges than you appear to have I do not consider it a hasty generalization but rather as an ingenious hypothesis strongly supported by some striking facts and analogies but which remains to be proven by more facts and the additional light which more research may throw upon the problem it furnishes a subject for every student of nature to attend to every fact he observes will make either for or against it and it thus serves both as an incitement to the collection of facts and an object to which they can be applied when collected in 1847 he wrote to Bates I should like to take someone family of beetles to study thoroughly principally with a view to the theory of the Origin of Species by that means I am strongly of opinion that some definite results might be arrived at Wallace deliberately planned some of his fieldwork to test the hypothesis that under an evolutionary scenario closely related species should inhabit neighboring territories during his work in the Amazon basin he came to realize that geographical barriers such as the Amazon and its major tributaries often separated the ranges of closely allied species and he included these observations in his 1853 paper on the monkeys of the Amazon near the end of the paper he asks the question are very closely allied species ever separated by a wide interval of country in February 1855 while working in Sarawak on the island of Borneo Wallace wrote on the law which has regulated the introduction of new species a paper which was published in the annals and magazine of natural history in September 1855 in this paper he discussed observations regarding the geographic and geologic distribution of both living and fossil species what would become known as bio geography his conclusion that every species has come into existence coincident both in space and time with a closely allied species has come to be known as the Sarawak law Wallace thus answered the question he had posed in his earlier paper on the monkeys of the Amazon River Basin although it contained no mention of any possible mechanisms for evolution this paper foreshadowed the momentous paper he would write three years later the paper shook Charles Lyell's belief that species were immutable although his friend Charles Darwin had written to him in 1842 expressing support for transmutation Lyell had continued to be strongly opposed to the idea around the start of 1856 he told Darwin about Wallace's paper as did Edward Blythe who thought it good upon the whole Wallace has I think put the matter well and according to his theory the various domestic races of animals have been fairly developed into species despite this hint Darwin mistook Wallace's conclusion for the progressive creationism of the time and wrote that it was nothing very new uses my simile of tree but it seems all creation with him Lyle was more impressed and opened a notebook on species in which he grappled with the consequences particularly for human ancestry Darwin had already shown his theory to their mutual friend Joseph Hooker and now for the first time he spelt out the full details of natural selection to Lyle although Lyle could not agree he urged Darwin to publish to establish priority Darwin demurred at first then began writing up a species sketch of his continuing work in May 1856 topic natural selection and Darwin by February 1858 Wallace had been convinced by his bio geographical research in the Malay Archipelago of the reality of evolution as he later wrote in his autobiography the problem then was not only how and why do species change but how and why do they change into new and well-defined species distinguished from each other in so many ways why and how they become so exactly adapted to distinct modes of life and why do all the intermediate grades die out as geology shows they have died out and leave only clearly defined and well marked species genera and higher groups of animals according to his autobiography it was while he was in bed with a fever that Wallace thought about Thomas Robert Malthus 'iz idea of positive checks on human population growth and came up with the idea of natural selection Wallace said in his autobiography that he was on the island of tornade at the time but historians have questioned this saying that on the basis of the journal he kept at the time he was on the island of gillo low from 1858 to 1861 he rented a house on turn 8 from the Dutchman martin dirk van Rijn s van driven boat he used this house as a base camp for expeditions to other islands such as gillo Lowe Wallace describes how he discovered natural selection as follows it then occurred to me that these causes are their equivalents are continually acting in the case of animals also and as animals usually breed much more quickly than does mankind the destruction every year from these causes must be enormous in order to keep down the numbers of each species since evidently they do not increase regularly from year to year as otherwise the world would long ago have been crowded with those that breed most quickly vaguely thinking over the enormous and constant destruction which this implied it occurred to me to ask the question why do some die and some live and the answer was clearly on the whole the best fitted life and considering the amount of individual variation that my experience as a collector had shown me to exist then it followed that all the changes necessary for the adaptation of the species to the changing conditions would be brought about in this way every part of an animal's organization could be modified exactly as required and in the very process of this modification the unmodified would die out and thus the definite characters and the clear isolation of each new species would be explained Wallace had once briefly met Darwin and was one of the correspondents whose observations Darwin used to support his own theories although Wallace's first letter to Darwin has been lost Wallace carefully kept the letters he received in the first letter dated the first of May 1857 Darwin commented that Wallace's letter of the 10th of October which he had recently received as well as Wallace's paper on the law which has regulated the introduction of new species of 1855 showed that they were both thinking alike and to some extent reaching similar conclusions and said that he was preparing his own work for publication in about two years time the second letter dated the 22nd of December 1857 said how glad he was that Wallace was theorizing about distribution adding that without speculation there is no good and original observation while commenting that I believe I go much further than you Wallace trusted Darwin's opinion on the matter and sent him his February 1858 essay on the tendency of varieties to depart indefinitely from the original type with the request that Darwin would review it and pass it on to Charles Lyell if he thought it worthwhile although Wallace had sent several articles for journal publication during his travels through the Malay Archipelago the turn 8 essay was in a private letter on the 18th of June 1858 Darwin received the essay from Wallace while Wallace's essay obviously did not employ Darwin's term natural selection it did outline the mechanics of an evolutionary divergence of species from similar ones due to environmental pressures in this sense it was very similar to the theory that Darwin had worked on for 20 years but had yet to publish Darwin sent the manuscript to Charles Lyell with a letter saying he could not have made a better short abstract even his terms now stand as heads of my chapters he does not say he wishes me to publish but I shall of course at once write and offer to send to any Journal distraught about the illness of his baby son Darwin put the problem to Charles Lyell and Joseph Hooker who decided to publish the essay in a joint presentation together with unpublished writings which highlighted Darwin's priority Wallace's essay was presented to the Linnean Society of London on the 1st of July 1858 along with excerpts from an essay which Darwin had disclosed privately to Hooker in 1847 and a letter Darwin had written to ASA gray in 1857 communication with Wallace in the far-off Malay Archipelago was impossible without months of delay so he was not part of this rapid publication fortunately Wallace accepted the arrangement after the fact happy that he had been included at all and never expressed public or private bitterness Darwin's social and scientific status was far greater than Wallace's and it was unlikely that without Darwin Wallace's views on evolution would have been taken seriously Lyell and hookers arrangement relegated Wallace to the position of co-discoverer and he was not the social equal of Darwin or the other prominent British natural scientists however the joint reading of their papers on natural selection associated Wallace with the more famous Darwin this combined with Darwin's as well as hookers and Lyle's advocacy on his behalf would give Wallace greater access to the highest levels of the scientific community the reaction to the reading was muted with the President of the Linnean Society remarking in May 1859 that the year had not been marked by any striking discoveries but with Darwin's publication of On the Origin of Species later in 1859 its significance became apparent when Wallace returned to the UK he met Darwin although some of Wallace's iconoclastic opinions in the ensuing years would test Darwin's patience they remained on friendly terms for the rest of Darwin's life over the years a few people have in this version of events in the early 1980s two books one written by Arnold Brackman and another by John Langdon Brooks even suggested not only that there had been a conspiracy to rob Wallace of his proper credit but that Darwin had actually stolen a key idea from Wallace to finish his own theory these claims have been examined in detail by a number of scholars who have not found them to be convincing research into shipping schedules has shown that contrary to these accusations Wallace's letter could not have been delivered earlier than the date shown in Darwin's letter to Lyell topic defense of Darwin and his ideas after the publication of Darwin's On the Origin of Species Wallace became one of its staunchest defenders on his return to England in 1862 in one incident in 1863 that particularly pleased Darwin Wallace published the short paper remarks on the Rev s Houghton's paper on the bees cell and on the Origin of Species in order to rebut a paper by a professor of geology at the University of Dublin that had sharply criticized Darwin's comments in the origin on how hexagonal honeybee cells could have evolved through natural selection and even lengthier defense of Darwin's work was creation by law a review Wallace wrote in 1867 for the quarterly Journal of science of the book the reign of law which had been written by George Campbell the 8th Duke of Argyll as a refutation of natural selection after an 1870 meeting of the British Science Association Wallace wrote to Darwin complaining that there were no opponents left who know anything of natural history so that there are none of the good discussions we used to have topic differences between Darwin's and Wallace's ideas on natural selection historians of science have noted that while Darwin considered the ideas in Wallace's paper to be essentially the same as his own there were differences Darwin emphasized competition between individuals of the same species to survive and reproduce whereas Wallace emphasized environmental pressures on varieties and species forcing them to become adapted to their local conditions leading populations in different locations to diverge some historians notably Peter J bowler have suggested the possibility that in the paper he mailed to Darwin Wallace was not discussing selection of individual variations at all but rather group selection however Malcolm cobbler has shown that this notion is incorrect and Wallace was indeed discussing individual variations others have noted that another difference was that Wallace appeared to have envisioned natural selection as a kind of feedback mechanism keeping species and varieties adapted to their environment they point to a largely overlooked passage of Wallace's famous 1858 paper the action of this principle is exactly like that of the centrifugal governor of the steam engine which checks and corrects any irregularities almost before they become evident and in like manner no unbalanced efficiency in the animal kingdom can ever reach any conspicuous magnitude because it would make itself felt at the very first step by rendering existence difficult and extinction almost sure soon to follow the Cybernet ition and anthropologist Gregory Batterson would observe in the 1970s that though writing it only as an example Wallace had probably said the most powerful thing that had been said in the 19th century Bettis INRIA tada poq in his 1979 book mind and nature a necessary unity and other scholars have continued to explore the connection between natural selection and systems theory topic warning coloration and sexual selection in 1867 Darwin wrote to Wallace about a problem he was having understanding how some caterpillars could have evolved conspicuous color schemes Darwin had come to believe that sexual selection an agency to which Wallace did not attribute the same importance as Darwin did explained many conspicuous animal colour schemes however Darwin realized that this could not apply to caterpillars Wallace responded that he and Henry Bates had observed that many of the most spectacular butterflies had a peculiar odour and taste and that he had been told by John Jenner we're that birds would not eat a certain kind of common white moth because they found it unpalatable now as the white moth as as conspicuous at dusk as a colored caterpillar in the daylight Wallace wrote back to Darwin that it seemed likely that the conspicuous color scheme served as a warning to predators and thus could have evolved through natural selection Darwin was impressed by the idea at a subsequent meeting of the entomological Society Wallace asked for any evidence anyone might have on the topic in 1869 we're published data from experiments and observations involving brightly coloured caterpillars that supported Wallace's idea warning coloration was one of a number of contributions Wallace made in the area of the evolution of animal coloration in general and the concept of protective coloration in particular it was also part of a lifelong disagreement Wallace had with Darwin over the importance of sexual selection in his 1878 book tropical nature and other essays he wrote extensively on the coloration of animals and plants and proposed alternative explanations for a number of cases Darwin had attributed to sexual selection he revisited the topic at length in his 1889 book Darwinism in 1890 he wrote a critical review in nature of his friend Edward Bagnall Pelton's the colours of animals which supported Darwin on sexual selection attacking especially Pelton's claims on the aesthetic preferences of the insect world topic wallis effect in 1889 Wallace wrote the book Darwinism which explained and defended natural selection in it he proposed the hypothesis that natural selection could drive the reproductive isolation of two varieties by encouraging the development of barriers against hybridization thus it might contribute to the development of new species he suggested the following scenario when two populations of a species had diverged beyond a certain point each adapted to particular conditions hybrid offspring would be less well adapted than either parent form and at that point natural selection will tend to eliminate the hybrids furthermore under such conditions natural selection would favor the development of barriers to hybridization as individuals that avoided hybrid matings would tend to have more fit offspring and thus contribute to the reproductive isolation of the two incipient species this idea came to be known as the Wallace effect later referred to as reinforcement Wallace had suggested to Darwin that natural selection could play a role in preventing hybridization in private correspondence as early as 1868 but had not worked it out to this level of detail it continues to be a topic of research in evolutionary biology today with both computer simulation and empirical results supporting its validity topic application of theory to humans and role of teleology in evolution in 1864 Wallace published a paper the origin of human races and the antiquity of man deduced from the theory of natural selection applying the theory to humankind Darwin had not yet publicly addressed the subject although Thomas Huxley had in evidence as to man's place in nature he explained the apparent stability of the human stock by pointing to the vast gap in cranial capacities between humans and the great apes unlike some other Darwinists including Darwin himself he did not regard modern primitives as almost filling the gap between man and ape he saw the evolution of humans in two stages achieving a bipedal posture freeing the hands to carry out the dictates of the brain and the recognition of the human brain as a totally new factor in the history of life Wallace was apparently the first evolutionist to recognize clearly that with the emergence of that bodily specialization which constitutes the human brain bodily specialization itself might be said to be outmoded for this paper he won Darwin's praise shortly afterwards Wallace became a spiritualist at about the same time he began to maintain that natural selection cannot account for mathematical artistic or musical genius as well as metaphysical musings and wit in humor he eventually said that something in the unseen universe of spirit had interceded at least three times in history the first was the creation of life from inorganic matter the second was the introduction of consciousness in the higher animals and the third was the generation of the higher mental faculties in humankind he also believed that the race on d'être of the universe was the development of the human spirit these views greatly disturbed Darwin who argued that spiritual appeals were not necessary and that sexual selection could easily explain apparently non adaptive mental phenomena while some historians have concluded that Wallis's belief that natural selection was insufficient to explain the development of consciousness and the human mind was directly caused by his adoption of spiritualism other Wallis scholars have disagreed and some maintain that Wallis never believed natural selection applied to those areas reaction to Wallace's ideas on this topic among leading natural ists at the time varied Charles Lyell endorsed Wallace's views on human evolution rather than Darwin's Wallace's belief that human consciousness could not be entirely a product of purely material causes was shared by a number of prominent intellectuals in the late 19th and early 20th centuries however many including Huxley Hooker and Darwin himself were critical of Wallace as the historian of science Michael Shermer has stated Wallace's views in this area were at odds with two major tenets of the emerging Darwinian philosophy which were that evolution was not teleological purpose-driven and that it was not anthropocentric human-centered much later in his life Wallace returned to these themes that evolution suggested that the universe might have a purpose and that certain aspects of living organisms might not be explainable in terms of purely materialistic processes in a 1909 magazine article entitled the world of life which he later expanded into a book of the same name a work that Shermer said anticipated some ideas about design in nature and directed evolution that would arise from various religious traditions throughout the 20th century topic assessment of Wallace's role in history of evolutionary theory in many accounts of the development of evolutionary theory Wallace as mentioned only in passing as simply being the stimulus to the publication of Darwin's own theory in reality Wallace developed his own distinct evolutionary views which diverged from Darwin's and was considered by many especially Darwin to be a leading thinker on evolution in his day whose ideas could not be ignored one historian of science has pointed out that through both private correspondence and published works Darwin and Wallace exchanged knowledge and stimulated each other's ideas and theories over an extended period Wallace as the most cited naturalist in Darwin's descent of man occasionally in strong disagreement both Darwin and Wallace agreed on the importance of natural selection and some of the factors responsible for it competition between species and geographical isolation but Wallace believed that evolution had a purpose teleology in maintaining species fitness to their environment whereas Darwin hesitated to attribute any purpose to a random natural process scientific discoveries since the 19th century support Darwin's viewpoint by identifying several additional mechanisms and triggers mutations in germline DNA ie DNA of the sperm or egg which manifest in the offspring these occur spontaneously or are triggered by environmental radiation or mutagenic chemicals a recently discovered mechanism which is likely to be more important than the others combined is infections with viruses which integrate their DNA into their hosts organisms do not want to mutate mutation just happens most of the mutations are harmful or lethal to the offspring but a very small minority turn out to be advantageous as novel proteins get produced that serve new functions genetic mechanisms where evolution can occur in the absence of change in DNA sequence through various mechanisms including chemical modifications to the DNA bases cataclysmic events meteorite asteroid impacts volcanism that caused mass extinctions of species that until the event were perfectly adapted to their environment such as the dinosaurs the dramatic reduction of competition among the surviving species makes newly evolved species more likely to survive Wallis remained an ardent defender of natural selection for the rest of his life by the 1880s evolution was widely accepted in scientific circles in 1889 Wallis published the book Darwinism as a response to the scientific critics of natural selection of all Wallace's books it is the most cited by scholarly publications topic other scientific contributions topic biogeography and ecology in 1872 at the urging of many of his friends including Darwin Philip Slater and Alfred Newton Wallace began research for a general review of the geographic distribution of animals he was unable to make much progress initially in part because classification systems for many types of animals were in flux at the time he resumed the work in earnest in 1874 after the publication of a number of new works on classification extending the system developed by Slater for birds which divided the earth into six separate geographic regions for describing species distribution to cover mammals reptiles and insects as well Wallace created the basis for the zoo a geographic regions still in use today he discussed all of the factors then known to influence the current and past geographic distribution of animals within each geographical region these included the effects of the appearance and disappearance of land bridges such as the one currently connecting North America and South America and the effects of periods of increased glaciation he provided maps that displayed factors such as elevation of mountains depths of oceans and the character of regional vegetation that affected the distribution of animals he also summarized all the known families and general of the higher animals and listed their known Geographic distributions the text was organized so that it would be easy for a traveler to learn what animals could be found in a particular location the resulting two-volume work the geographical distribution of animals was published in 1876 and would serve as the definitive text on zoo geography for the next 80 years in this book Wallace did not confine himself to the biogeography of living species but also included evidence from the fossil record to discuss the processes of evolution and migration that had led to the geographical distribution of modern animal species for example he discussed how fossil evidence showed that tapirs had originated in the northern hemisphere migrating between North America and eurasia and then much more recently to South America after which the northern species became extinct leaving the modern distribution of two isolated groups of tapir species in South America and Southeast Asia Wallace was very aware of and interested in the mass extinction of megafauna in the Late Pleistocene in the geographical distribution of animals 1876 he wrote we live in a zoo logically impoverished world from which all the hugest and fiercest and strangest forms have recently disappeared he added that he believed the most likely cause for the rapid extinctions to have been glaciation but by the time he wrote world of life 1911 he had come to believe those extinctions were due to man's agency in 1880 Wallace published the book island life as a sequel to the geographical distribution of animals it surveyed the distribution of both animal and plant species on Islands Wallace classified islands into three different types oh she anak Islands such as the Galapagos and Hawaiian Islands then known as the Sandwich Islands formed in mid-ocean and never part of any large continent such islands were characterized by a complete lack of terrestrial mammals and amphibians and their inhabitants with the exceptions of migratory birds and species introduced by human activity were typically the result of accidental colonization and subsequent evolution he divided continental islands into two separate classes depending on whether they had recently been part of a continent like Britain or much less recently like Madagascar and discussed how that difference affected the flora and fauna he talked about how isolation affected evolution and how that could result in the preservation of classes of animals such as the lemurs of Madagascar that were remnants of once widespread continental faunas he extensively discussed how changes of climate particularly periods of increased glaciation may have affected the distribution of flora and fauna on some islands and the first portion of the book discusses possible causes of these great ice ages island life was considered a very important work at the time of its publication it was discussed extensively in scientific circles both in published reviews and in private correspondence topic environmental issues wallace's extensive work in biogeography made him aware of the impact of human activities on the natural world in tropical nature and other essays 1878 he warned about the dangers of deforestation and soil erosion especially in tropical climates prone to heavy rainfall noting the complex interactions between vegetation and climate he warned that the extensive clearing of rainforests for coffee cultivation in salon Sri Lanka and India would adversely impact the climate in those countries and lead to their eventual impoverishment due to soil erosion in island life Wallace again mentioned deforestation and also the impact of invasive species on the impact of European colonization on the island of st. Helena he wrote yet the general aspect of the island is now so barren and forbidding that some persons find it difficult to believe that it was once all green and fertile the cause of this change as however very easily explained the rich soil formed by decomposed volcanic rock and vegetable deposits could only be retained on the steep slopes so long as it was protected by the vegetation to which it in great part owed its origin when this was destroyed the heavy tropical rains soon washed away the soil and has left a vast expanse of bare rock or sterile clay this irreparable destruction was caused in the first place by goats which were introduced by the Portuguese in 1513 and increased so rapidly that in 1588 they existed in the thousands these animals are the greatest of all foes to trees because they eat off the young seedlings and thus prevent the natural restoration of the forest they were however aided by the reckless waste of man the East India Company took possession of the island in 1651 and about the Year 1700 it began to be seen that the forests were fast diminishing and required some protection to of the native trees redwood and ebony were good for tanning and to save trouble the bark was wastefully stripped from the trunks only the remainder being left to rot while in 1709 a large quantity of the rapidly disappearing ebony was used to burn lime for building fortifications Wallace's comments on environment grew more strident later in his career in the world of life 1911 he wrote these considerations should lead us to look upon all the works of nature animate or inanimate as invested with a certain sanctity to be used by us but not abused and never to be recklessly destroyed or defaced to pollute a spring or a river to exterminate a bird or beast should be treated as moral offenses and as social crimes yet during the past century which has seen those great advances in the knowledge of nature of which we are so proud there has been no corresponding development of a lover reverence for her works so that never before has there been such widespread ravage of the Earth's surface by destruction of native vegetation and with it of much animal life and such wholesale defacement of the earth by mineral workings and by pouring into our streams and rivers the refuse of manufacturers and of cities and this has been done by all the greatest nations claiming the first place for civilization and religion topic astrobiology wallace's 1904 book man's place in the universe was the first serious attempt by a biologist to evaluate the likelihood of life on other planets he concluded that the earth was the only planet in the solar system that could possibly support life mainly because it was the only one in which water could exist in the liquid phase more controversially he maintained that it was unlikely that other stars in the galaxy could have planets with the necessary properties the existence of other galaxies not having been proved at the time his treatment of Mars in this book was brief and in 1907 Wallace returned to the subject with a book is Mars habitable to criticize the claims made by Percival Lowell that there were Martian canals built by intelligent beings Wallace did months of research consulted various experts and produced his own scientific analysis of the Martian climate and atmospheric conditions among other things Wallace pointed out that spectroscopic analysis had shown no signs of water vapor in the Martian atmosphere that Lowell's analysis of Mars as climate was seriously flawed and badly overestimated the surface temperature and that low atmospheric pressure would make liquid water let alone a planet girding irrigation system impossible Richard Milner comments it was the brilliant and eccentric evolutionist Alfred Russel Wallace who effectively debunked Lowell's illusionary network of Martian canals Wallace originally became interested in the topic because his anthropocentric philosophy inclined him to believe that man would likely be unique in the universe topic other contributions topic poetry Wallace also wrote poetic verse an example being a description of Javita from his book travels on the Amazon the poem begins Tiz where the streams divide to swell the floods of the two mighty rivers of our globe where gushing brook 'let's in their narrow beds it continues then to describe the people of the village and their lives in detail although it is not an idyllic description there is an Indian village all around the dark eternal boundless forest spreads its very foliage stately palm trees rise on every side and numerous trees unknown save by strange names uncouth to English ears here I dwelt a while the one white man among perhaps 200 living Souls they pass a peaceful and contented life the poem is a lyrical description of the life of a tribe he was living with along the Amazon River while it has echoes of Tennyson in the Rhymes and rhythms the poem itself is not overly romantic serving more as a tool to set the scene and then draw contrast between the lives of the people living here and those in England the poem is a comment on savage Aryan greed making the point that some in England were more savage than those on the Amazon either by a greed for gold or by their greed for gold driving others into poverty Wallace concludes I'd be an Indian here and live content to fish and hunt and paddle my canoe and see my children grow like young wild fawns in health of body and in peace of mind rich without wealth and happy without gold the poem is referenced and partially recited in the BBC television series the ascent of man topic controversies topic spiritualism in a letter to his brother-in-law in 1861 Wallace wrote I remain an utter disbeliever in almost all that you consider the most sacred truths I will pass over as utterly contemptible the oft repeated accusation that skeptics shut out evidence because they will not be governed by the morality of Christianity I am thankful I can see much to admire in all religions to the mass of mankind religion of some kind as a necessity but whether there be a God and whatever be his nature whether we have an immortal soul or not or whatever may be our state after death I can have no fear of having to suffer for the study of nature and the search for truth or believe that those will be better off in a future State who have lived in the belief of doctrines inculcated from childhood and which her to them rather a matter of blind faith than intelligent conviction Wallace was an enthusiast of phrenology early in his career he experimented with hypnosis then known as mesmerism he used some of his students in Leicester as subjects with considerable success when he began his experiments with mesmerism the topic was very controversial and early experimenters such as John Eliot s'en had been harshly criticized by the medical and scientific establishment Wallace drew a connection between his experiences with mesmerism and his later investigations into spiritualism in 1893 he wrote I just learned my first great lesson in the inquiry into these obscure fields of knowledge never to accept the disbelief of great men are there accusations of impostor or of imbecility as of any weight when opposed to the repeated observation of facts by other men admittedly sane and honest the whole history of science shows us that whenever the educated and scientific men of any age have denied the facts of other investigators on a priori grounds of absurdity or impossibility the deniers have always been wrong Wallace began investigating spiritualism in the summer of 1865 possibly at the urging of his older sister Fanny Simms who had been involved with it for some time after reviewing the literature on the topic and attempting to test the phenomena he witnessed at seances he came to accept that the belief was connected to a natural reality for the rest of his life he remained convinced that at least some say phenomena were genuine no matter how many accusations of fraud skeptics made or how much evidence of trickery was produced historians and biographers have disagreed about which factors most influenced his adoption of spiritualism it has been suggested by one biographer that the emotional shock he had received a few months earlier when his first fiancee broke their engagement contributed to his receptiveness to spiritualism other scholars have preferred to emphasize instead Wallace's desire to find rational and scientific explanations for all phenomena both material and non-material of the natural world and of human society spiritualism appealed to many educated Victorians who no longer found traditional religious doctrine such as that of the Church of England acceptable yet were unsatisfied with the completely materialistic and mechanical view of the world that was increasingly emerging from 19th century science however several scholars who have researched Wallace's views in depth have emphasized that for him spiritualism was a matter of science and philosophy rather than religious belief among other prominent 19th century intellectuals involved with spiritualism were the social reformer Robert Owen who was one of Wallace's early idols the physicists William Crookes and Lord Rayleigh the mathematician Augustus de Morgan and the Scottish publisher Robert Chambers during the 1860s the stage magician John Naval Maskelyne exposed the trickery of the Davenport brothers Wallace was unable to accept that he had replicated their feats utilizing natural methods and stated that masculine possessed supernatural powers however in one of his writings Wallace dismissed Maskelyne referring to a lecture exposing his tricks in 1874 Wallace visited the spirit photographer Frederick Hudson a photograph of him with his deceased mother was produced and Wallace declared the photograph genuine declaring even if he had by some means obtained possession of all the photographs ever taken of my mother they would not have been of the slightest use to him in the manufacture of these pictures I see no escape from the conclusion that some spiritual being acquainted with my mother's various aspects during life produced these recognizable impressions on the plate however Hudson's photographs had previously been exposed as fraudulent in 1872 Wallace's very public advocacy of spiritualism and his repeated defense of spiritualist mediums against allegations of fraud in the 1870s damaged his scientific reputation in 1875 Wallace published the evidence he believed proved his position in his book on miracles and modern spiritualism which is a compilation of essays he wrote over a period of time in his chapter entitled modern spiritualism evidence of men of science Wallace refers to three men of the highest eminence in their respective departments who were professor de Morgan professor hare and judge Edmunds who all investigated spiritualist phenomena however Wallace himself is only quoting their results and was not present at any of their investigations his vehement defense of spiritualism strained his relationships with previously friendly scientists such as Henry Bates Thomas Huxley and even Darwin who felt he was overly credulous evidence of this can be seen in Wallace's letters dated the 22nd of November and the 1st of December 1866 to Thomas Huxley asking him if he would be interested in getting involved in scientific spiritualist investigations which Huxley politely but emphatically declined on the basis that he had neither the time nor the inclination others such as the physiologist William Benjamin carpenter and zoologist Irae Lankester became openly and publicly hostile to Wallace over the issue Wallace and other scientists who defended spiritualism notably William Crookes were subject to much criticism from the press with The Lancet as the leading English medical journal of the being particularly harsh the controversy affected the public perception of Wallace's work for the rest of his career when in 1879 Darwin first tried to rally support among natural ists to get a civil pension awarded to Wallace Joseph Hooker responded Wallace has lost caste considerably not only by his adhesion to spiritualism but by the fact of his having deliberately and against the whole voice of the committee of his section of the British Association brought about a discussion on spiritualism at one of its sectional meetings this he is said to have done in an underhanded manner and I will remember the indignation it gave rise to in the ba counsel Hooker eventually relented and agreed to support the pension request topic Flat Earth wager in 1870 a Flat Earth proponent named John Hampton offered a five hundred pounds wager equivalent to about 47 thousand pounds in present-day terms in a magazine advertisement to anyone who could demonstrate a convex curvature in a body of water such as a river canal or Lake Wallace intrigued by the challenge and short of money at the time designed an experiment in which he set up two objects along a six mile 10 kilometers stretch of canal both objects were at the same height above the water and he mounted a telescope on a bridge at the same height above the water as well when seen through the telescope one object appeared higher than the other showing the curvature of the earth the judge for the wager the editor of field magazine declared Wallace the winner but Hampton refused to accept the result he sued Wallace and launched a campaign which persisted for several years of writing letters to various publications and to organizations of which Wallace was a member denouncing him as a swindler and a thief Wallace won multiple libel suits against Hampton but the resulting litigation cost Wallace more than the amount of the wager and the controversy frustrated him for years topic anti-vaccination campaign in the early 1880s Wallace was drawn into the debate over mandatory smallpox vaccinations Wallace originally saw the issue as a matter of personal liberty but after studying some of the statistics provided by anti vaccination activists he began to question the efficacy of vaccination at the time the germ theory of disease was very new and far from universally accepted moreover no one knew enough about the human immune system to understand why vaccination worked when Wallace did some research he discovered instances where supporters of vaccinations had used questionable in a few cases completely phony statistics to support their arguments always suspicious of Authority Wallace suspected that physicians had a vested interest in promoting vaccination and became convinced that reductions in the incidence of smallpox that had been attributed to vaccination were in fact due to better hygiene and improvements in public sanitation another factor in Wallace's thinking was his belief that because of the action of natural selection organisms were in a state of balance with their environment and that everything in nature even disease-causing organisms served a useful purpose in the natural order of things he feared vaccination might upset that natural balance with unfortunate results Wallace and other anti vaccination estate out that vaccination which at the time was often done in a sloppy and unsanitary manner could be dangerous in 1890 Wallace gave evidence before Royal Commission investigating the controversy when the Commission examined the material he had submitted to support his testimony they found errors including some questionable statistics The Lancet averred that Wallace and the other anti vaccination activists were being selective in their choice of statistics ignoring large quantities of data inconsistent with their position the Commission found that smallpox vaccination was effective and should remain compulsory though they did recommend some changes in procedures to improve safety and that the penalties for people who refused to comply B may less severe years later in 1898 Wallace wrote a pamphlet vaccinations a delusion it's penal enforcement a crime attacking the Commission's findings it in turn was attacked by The Lancet which stated that it contained many of the same errors as his evidence given to the Commission topic legacy and historical perception as a result of his writing at the time of his death Wallace had been for many years a well known figure both as a scientist and as a social activist he was often sought out by journalists and others for his views on a variety of topics he received honorary doctorates and a number of professional honors such the Royal Society's royal medal and Darwin medal in 1868 and 1890 respectively and the order of merit in 1908 above all his role as the co-discoverer of natural selection and his work on zuo geography marked him out as an exceptional figure he was undoubtedly one of the greatest natural history explorers of the 19th century despite this his fame faded quickly after his death for a long time he was treated as a relatively obscure figure in the history of science a number of reasons have been suggested for this lack of attention including his modesty his willingness to champion unpopular causes without regard for his own reputation and the discomfort of much of the scientific community with some of his unconventional ideas recently he has become a less obscure figure with the publication of several book length biographies on him as well as anthologies of his writings in 2007 a literary critic for New Yorker magazine observed that five such biographies and to such anthologies had been published since 2000 there has also been a webpage created that is dedicated to Wallace scholarship in a 2010 book the environmentalist Tim Flannery claimed that Wallace was the first modern scientist to comprehend how essential cooperation as to our survival and suggested that Wallace's understanding of natural selection and his later work on the atmosphere be seen as a forerunner to modern ecological thinking the Natural History Museum London coordinated commemorative events for the Wallace centenary worldwide in the Wallace 100 project in 2013 on the 24th of January his portrait was unveiled in the main hall of the museum by Bill Bailey a fervent admirer on the BBC two programme bill Bailey's jungle hero first broadcast on the 21st of April 2013 Bailey revealed how Wallace cracked evolution by revisiting places where Wallace discovered exotic species episode one featured orangutan zan flying frogs in Baileys journey through Borneo Episode two featured birds of paradise on the 7th of November 2013 the 100th anniversary of Wallace's death Sir David Attenborough unveiled a statue of Wallace at the Museum the statue was donated by the AR Wallace Memorial Fund and was sculpted by Anthony Smith it depicts Wallace as a young man collecting in the jungle November 2013 also marked the debut of the animated life of AR Wallace a paper puppet animation film dedicated to Wallace's centennial topic Awards honors and memorials served

t0b6441CroE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0b6441CroE | THIS WHAT U CALL A SYNTHETIC LACE FRONT 13x4 Inches Parting MANE CONCEPT elevatestyles | [Music] what's up love the shooter April in this video is going to be new new new well of course is new but this hair this this whole reinvention home name everything is all new changed up revised revamp whatever you want to call it is all that before I can get into the hair portion of this video I actually went to the dermatologist today to have another injection so that is the reason why I have the bandit one let's talk about how elevate style begin begin all of the new anew okay Isis brand which has changed and their name their name now is called main concept and I'm pretty sure you guys are well aware of the reason why they changed their name from Isis to main concept so let's talk about this they change their name let's talk about this new brown sugar brown sugar front to lace human hair style mix with them about to show you so unless it took about this okay this wig has 13 by 4 inches of frontal party I know y'all like what let's talk about it because I know y'all PI still able event a girl so we don't talk about this together as one this one right here is called BSS 0-2 okay look first of all you guys do you see all of this lace this is a synthetic wig which is stomach so human hair stop mix is basically they're synthetic hair which is like really great a it resembles human hair to a tee it looks like human hair it may even function somewhat like human it but just keep in mind it's still synthetic fibers but it's more or less like a human hair style make so this may with really really great fibers so for those of you who like lace frontals here's one is really budget friendly you got Lowe's place you got your adjustable strap you got some combs in this combs in the back and the cap is a really nice like I said this is the BSS oh 2 and 0 2 and the color is a 1b 30 feet wanna be 30 so it's more or less really curly you can do a whole lot of things with this unit put it up an up do whatever you want to do to it the styling options let's just do this I told you guys a million times elevate South has like the newest stuff you don't even know about it not even know it came out nobody else has this ly 13 by 4 inches of lace frontal partying on a synthetic way [Music] play your lecture [Music] let's just talk about oh okay because the combs are great I love them companies for combs and units but a dig main concepts aka Isis put them in the wrong spot the comb that's supposed to be like right here or if they want to put my here they can sue they were all the way right here like right here the chrome is right here okay it's not nowhere near where it needs to be so I'm going to let y'all know this before hands to either remove the columns and sold them or in the proper position or a bobby pin England for the video sake I had to kind of like bobby pin it down because there was no way this wing was going to stay in place without the combs right there so that was the number one thing that is kind of like ruined it for me it didn't really even ruin it because I still do a like of the week a lot but the one thing that I noticed that some companies do and it drives me crazy they'll have a different curl pattern in the front and in the back as you can see it's a totally different world pattern it's like more or less waiting so I would really like for the hair to either be all like this or like this but I really would prefer it to be one pattern and one pattern wholly so those are the two things that I did not like about the way other than that the wig is really nice you seen I didn't even have to pull no hairs out I just did me a little part which you know if you want to better the part then by all means get you some concealer which I will show you guys really quickly images this one looks good for the wigs this might be my way to fill up an out so I'm not going to go all the way back here because as you know for right now I can't really see the whole concept is really great like they did an amazing job on it so on a scale of one to ten I'll probably have to give them like a seven because of the lack of position of comb this is really great for those girls who love a nice lace front but don't want to spend the human hair prices if you want to pull it up first of all let's keep in mind it has to have the combs in a good position if if they're not in my position this baby is not going to hold down so yes it is moving I did have to tack it down but other than that it's really cool I do love the entire 13 by 4 inch lace frontal party on a synthetic wig you angry and at nowhere especially on the other website so you guys check out elevate styles because like I be telling y'all they be having some underground stuff I'm saying just ain't yet so on that now let me know what you think of this one right here and as always it make sure you rate comment subscribe I love you guys stay diva and be delicious and I'll see you on the tool to come vision [Music] | Ms MuffinIsMyLovers | UCp8bSLce5AG0SlJhfXeikHw | 2017-02-12 | Creative Commons Attribution
