Hi, thank you guys all for coming. I'm really grateful to be able to show this story with you So thank you for CSVCon for having me The year was 2016 and I was playing with some crossword data And I discovered hundreds of crosswords that were near duplicates of previously published crosswords. I Showed this evidence to the crossword construction list that I was on and a tweet was posted Had a crossword in USA Today in 2004. They tweaked it in 2008 with the pseudonym Then ran it again in 2015 CD business indeed His crossword was titled CD business So it's as always kind of a plan words and that was from the editor of the American Values Club crossword Ben Taussig Then soon after an article was published in 538 spinning it into a plagiarism scandal And that blew up into hashtag gridgate. It was the mainstream news for a cycle and And it turned out that a major crossword editor had been engaging in plagiarism on a grand scale for several years Now these crosswords had been publicly available including historical ones and since the crosswords were republished Why did this go on discovered for so long? Well the 538 article hint said it was something that I said a quote that I gave them that when you get the data Into a nice clean dense form stuff just falls out of it And I said this off-the-cuff, but it's actually kind of an accurate statement of the thesis I was testing at the time and then the format and organization of the data were instrumental Maybe even essential to the discovery and end result. And so this is how a file format led to a crossword scandal So my original motivation was for looking into crossword data was actually fairly benign I had tried my hand at crossword construction and it turns out that that is pretty frustrating and tedious And I wanted to get better at it and as a software engineer. What else would you expect? I decided I would just get some data and do some analysis And there is a site. It's called export info which makes all of the new york times puzzles available They have over 24,000 puzzles dating back to 1942 And this is thanks to three years of work by the pre short scene puzzle project led by david steinberg Who was a teenager at the time and a group of several hundred crossword enthusiasts? They spent three years digging into microfiche and transcribing Litzing as they call it every new york times puzzle that had ever been published This is a great source of data. And so I emailed and asked to download the data in bulk And I got a very nice reply from jeff chen who runs the site and is very active in the crossword community And the reply was a very polite bit said in essence No So as trivial as crosswords are the collection of historical crossword data is exceedingly non-trivial And even in this case that having the lion's share of the work already done concerns about copyright We're going to make it unnecessarily difficult for me Well, I am not one to be so easily discouraged after all I can just scrape it right it's already on the web in public But scraping is a pain and I was sick of doing one-off data collections And it really would be too much work for me just to do it from my own little experiment in crossword construction So I decided to double down and do it Once and for all and I decided that I wanted to archive this data for posterity Expert info only has new york times crosswords and there are many other publications that have their own crosswords And uh, those that data is scattered across many different sites and it's many different formats some of which are difficult to parse And so this would be a gift to future crossword scholars So my plan Was as usual to get things into a the thesis that I mentioned in the opening is to get things into a high potential format And then well, who knows what and then of course as always profit Well, so what's this high potential format that I'm talking about it's an hpf as I like to call it Well first it's neat. It's tidy and it's organized. There's a place for everything and everything in its place And remember it's not hoarding if it's organized A high potential format is also clean. It's been properly decoded It's trustworthy as a source and it's structurally correct. It's ready to be grouped and sorted And finally it's dense it exhibits high data locality so that on any axis that the data can be sliced It's reasonably easy to slice it in that way So like a good engineer, I looked into existing Crossword formats including the granddaddy of all crossword formats the across light dot puzzle format Which is ubiquitous and a de facto standard But it's also binary and proprietary and not very easy to work with And across light also has a very old text format which has html like tags inside of it But it's very fragile the clues aren't numbered. They don't include answers So any extra line in the clues will render the puzzle indecipherable Xpf is a more modern format, but it's based on xml which is quite heavy And ipuz is fairly new and based on json also kind of heavy. So like a bad engineer, I decided to make my own format Specifically for archival and analysis and this is the xc format that I designed It's really just a carefully constructed text file But it's very easy to parse the structure and format should be self-evident to anybody who's done anything with crosswords And so if you look at the top the id is mnemonic. It's in the file name and it's easy to type It's a short and recognizable abbreviation for each publication along with the date And so here nyt means new york times and the date is in year month day format Which makes it easily sortable in time So overall this id has some very good shelving properties and then inside the file crosswords basically have three sections So at the top there's metadata, which is in this format key colon value pairs Which is easy to parse again and they use a standard crossword keys title and author editor date, etc And it's extensible by using other metadata keys like rebus for puzzles Which have grid squares with a symbol or more than one letter in them If you didn't know they could do that they do sometimes and it screws you up totally So then there's the grid Which is the actual solution to the puzzle one character per grid square And an octothorpe or a hash mark to indicate black squares And then finally there are the clues And here unlike in other formats that we I mentioned the clues are self-contained with one per line Including the direction and the number and then the answer after a tilde And this format is uh is very stable if multiple people list or transcribe the same crossword from the same source They should get identical Xd files and then also shelves under identical id And this format is also robust to hand editing if there's a structural mistake is discovered after an edit the original puzzle should be able to be reconstructed So then I put the format into action and if they make a movie about this then this is where the montage would go I don't know what song they would use but um I made a janky pipeline to scrape and convert and shelve the crosswords and I got the 24 000 puzzles from Export info and I found some other public crossword sites and I scraped them too And I most crossword sites actually only go back like six months or a year And there are many syndicated sites to wade through the same puzzles are sometimes Published on a staggered schedule But I found a plus site that had the past 10 years of us day puzzles And then I found a site that had crosswords go back 10 years from universal u-click Which is the major crossword syndicator and this took about two months of regular work on my evenings and weekends so Now that I have the start of god's own crossword corpus I had 30 000 crosswords organized on the file system in a simple text format of my own design This is all I really wanted in the first place, right? So I should be happy But instead I was pretty tired And I had gotten pretty busy at work and I started getting bored with the project and honestly I kind of just wanted somebody else to take up the analysis So I posted a link to the data into reddit in our data sets to quote share it with people who can do better Analysis than I can and I said they are organized and cleaned and reduced to their utter essence in a carefully designed bulk text format I was pretty proud of the work that I had done. I just didn't have the energy to do anything more with it Or so I thought Because when I sent it out into the world that apparently inspired me enough to play with it just a little And the it turns out that of course a clean data set makes for easy exploration So it's like nerd sniping. I kind of nerd sniped myself And I decided okay, I could look for an hour or two And so the first question I had goes right back to what I was looking in the first place Are there any patterns in grid fill? I mean, I don't know maybe there are identical corners or sections And I thought hey, you know, it'd be really easy with this format to find if there are any duplicate full rows of cross of crosswords So I use my trusty unix utilities grep sort and unique and if you went to nix talk yesterday He showed how to do some of this stuff And they come standard on any linux or osc system and work great with simple pecs And so I wrote a query against my database and this is actually it And this here is about five seconds to run and this is literal output from that command So if you look at these these are actually theme answers themes are like the backbone of most crossword puzzles They're the puny grammatical overreaches that make people grown They're like an interesting slice of culture. You can see some of the familiar idioms here flash in the pan Tooth and nail So I looked into some of these duplications and it looked like themes are reused more often than you might think Well, okay. How about identical non-theme rows might change the query slightly and then took another just took another few seconds to complete and Turned out that many lines had duplicates in other puzzles And so I use another standard tool diff to compare the xd files and that show that they were not actually reprints Only some of the puzzle was changed and even more the attributions for the puzzles were different So I pulled on that thread which kept me going and that led to another and another and that weekend Honestly, it's kind of a blur and by the end of that I had found many interesting anomalies For instance this one, excuse me This was the largest timespan difference. This was originally published in the new york times in 1955 and credited to jack lasado and then a nearly identical grid was published in the new york times in 1984 29 years later and credited to daniel gerardi And in this diff colors indicate changes only two letters in the grid have actually changed, but nearly every clue in the entire puzzle was rewritten So that diff output by the way was made with just two lines of python code using a built-in standard library called diff lib And this was enabled by having the data in a presentable text format in the first place It's not really the prettiest, but it is completely functional and it's accessible to everyone including non-technical people So here's another anomaly that I was very curious about Um, it turned out that many of the duplicated puzzles had something in common They were all edited by a timothy parker who was the editor the stated editor of both universal euclick and usa today crosswords And at the time I knew nothing about the crossword industry I thought maybe it might be a fake name like a pseudonym for a syndicate of constructors Until I found his wikipedia entry and his claim of a guinness record for most syndicated constructor I spent more than a few brain cycles trying to come up with reasons why his puzzles might be legitimately Reattributed but this puzzle here was the real clincher because the puzzle on the right is from usa today 2013 By elizabeth gorski who is a prolific crossword constructor. She's very well known and well loved in the crossword community And the left published by universal euclick in 2006 was seven years earlier It was attributed to somebody named tim burr So what was going on? Why would a major newspaper republish an old crossword attributed to an obvious pseudonym? And then change the attribution to someone who really existed So I wrote across a grid comparator and ran it over all the puzzles I threw this list together to enumerate the anomalies I was comprehensive but actually minimal effort And I just simply sorted by grid similarity and I threw it at my website linking to those scrappy diffs that you just saw and I and uh I sent it off to the so after three whole days after I posted the data sets I sent this to the crossword list I had pulled out the three examples the two that we just saw and one other one And I said I found some pairs of crosswords that are strikingly similar and I wondered if quote timothy parker might be a little loose with attribution and I present this as a curiosity I was very careful not to use the p word because crosswords may be trivial, but the crossword community takes them very seriously Well suffice it to say that people took an interest And the first response was you may be onto something here and there was much discussion on the list and off And this is where ben tausig from the intro got his information and posted to twitter As we saw and as the hubbub grew louder I took advantage of people's interest in my work and someone on the crossword list actually publishes a huge clue answer database once A quarter and so I asked him for the collection of puzzles that I knew he must have And I knew that he would not have given it to me if before this hashtag grid gate blew up But since it had he asked for his his source for permission and then did give it to me Again, it's a shame that this data does exist, but it's so difficult to obtain. So anyway, I got the data set And holy forking shirt balls I thought 30,000 crosswords was quite a lot But this collection had almost 80,000 puzzles in it And I want to give a big shout out to a guy named barry hauldeman Who collected crosswords very diligently for over 20 years And saved everything in the source dot pus format So I spent the next week before the 538 article was published Ingesting thousands more crosswords with my janky pipeline Discovering what directories and file names meant in the motherload Shelving crosswords properly in my corpus and figuring out the overlap between his collection and mine Which was substantial but not total. I was comparing grids exhaustively night and day I would start a batch before going to sleep and another one before going to work And I just I discovered that week that managing 50,000 of anything is pretty challenging Especially under time pressure So this is the second iteration of results that I pushed online And now there were 50,000 crosswords and in this version you can click through to each publisher And this is what was linked to from that 538 article All these old URLs are still available by the way because I take my responsibility as a data nerd very seriously Now at this point it had been 10 days since I posted to Reddit data sets trying not to do the analysis work And for my failure in that regard I got my 15 seconds of fame Which I have to say was stressful And time consuming there were many reporters contacted me looking for a choice quote from me to put in their summary of the 538 article Because everyone loves a scandal and the narrative had already been set So they weren't interested in the process nor the nuanced facts and I was not prepared for the onslaught I don't have many regrets, but I do actually kind of regret that I didn't have something to sell And I don't And I don't actually mean merchandise or stickers or anything to hasten my retirement although that would have been nice I mean actually my own career and story that the local NPR station actually figured out that I lived in Seattle And asked me to come on one of the radio programs But at this point having seen a bit behind the curtain I had become very distrustful of the media and I was not comfortable with the attention I hadn't groomed my online persona in quite a while and by the time it happens it is too late So my advice if you think this might happen to you is to be ready for the stampede to have a website With a coherent presentation in some way for people to engage on your own terms even if it's just Please sign up for my newsletter So after that died down a little bit anyway, I Kept working for another six months because this kind of data stuff is important to me I imported another 20,000 crossword puzzles from the haulderman collection I improved and automated my janky pipeline and I came up with a workable visualization All of my code for this project by the way is open source and on github And it's written mostly in python 3 with no dependencies I figured out also how to host the entire project on amazon web services for less than 10 bucks a year Thank you. I'm proud of that So this is my Visualization overview and I it shows the scope of the entire collection as well as the scope of the plagiarism You can show them by comparison over the x-axis is years and over the y-axis is publications The color indicates the kind of duplication and so Yellow indicates a reprint where this author is the same A pink indicates generally a theme copy only and red indicates a grid duplication with different authors And so within each publication year square they're little bar graphs broken out by day of the week and this way quantities can be directly visually compared So some takeaways from this and here's a zoom in to the damning portion of the visualization You can see that the scope of the plagiarism was egregious But actually mostly finite There are plenty of other potential instances of plagiarism Which I think are actually quite interesting, but they are completely overwhelmed by timothy parker's malfeasance And interestingly he wasn't even doing it that much anymore when the scandal erupted Although I say not much. It was only nine puzzle cell plagiarisms and three theme reworkings in that year Which for anybody else would have been a big deal And here you can also see an odd yellow red line starting in 2012 for usa today And that is when timothy parker and usa today started running pure reprints of puzzles on saturdays So why is it half red? Well, it turns out they're copies of other plagiarized puzzles And this was not obvious before they were broken out by day of the week And you can dive into this visualization too first for a list of puzzles by publication year and then into a specific duplicate puzzle comparison for instance This is that same puzzle comparison we saw earlier with the usa today puzzle on the right from 2013 by lisbeth gorsky And on the left by tim burr And note that the individual puzzle comparison now looks more polished But the basic xd structure and format is still evident The clue format is identical to the raw xd file even with a till that to separate the answer from the clue So here is more of the full story behind that odd pair The puzzle that triggered my spidey sense turned out to be one of those legitimate reprints The original puzzle was published in 2000 and attributed to Elizabeth C. Gorsky The grid is identical the title is the same and the author is correctly attributed in the reprint Although timothy parker did include himself as an author also But there's more The puzzle was first republished in 2005 with the upper left corner of the grid changed and the puzzle author listed as lucha coal And then it was republished in 2006 under tim burr as we saw And then in 2009 the grid puzzle was gutted and the theme reused So in total at least as i found anyway the puzzle was reprinted not just once but four separate times And you can tell these were not accidental reproductions because in every instance the black squares in the grid are also placed identically And so this is just one puzzle out of hundreds that were similarly hacked up and reattributed So the simple xd format was indeed instrumental in discovering the scandal if i had thought to go looking for it I suppose i could have found it with other formats But i wasn't going to go looking for it But this format and structure made it so trivial to do these explorations and comparisons that it literally just fell out of the data In these days the xd code is still running nightly and collecting and comparing crosswords But i don't have a whole lot of time to do more with it So if anyone is interested in playing with an epic data set peeled and cleaned like so many baby carrots This is the largest collection of crossword data on the planet Especially you should talk with me if you want to play at being a crossword librarian because there are still hundreds of puzzles that need to be imported Finally i'd like to encourage you to explore your own data sets in a less directed fashion When you don't know what you're looking for try a format first approach Make the data exploration easy frictionless. There's some really low hanging fruit out there just waiting to fall out And if you find some please let me know I'd like to thank Anya for her support and putting together this talk and i'd like to thank you for listening Thank you


Hello and welcome to the session. I am Asha and I shall be helping you with the following question that says the ratio of the sums of m and n terms of an AP is m square is to n square show that the ratio of mth term and nth term is 2m minus 1 is to 2n minus 1. So let us now begin with the solution and let A be the first term, D be the common difference of AP series then we are given that the sum of m terms. So first let us denote sum of n terms is equal to Sn. Now we are given that sum of m terms upon sum of n terms is equal to m square upon n square. Now the formula of Sn is m upon 2 into 2A plus m minus 1 into D upon n upon 2 into 2A plus n minus 1 into D is equal to m square upon n square or we have 2A plus m minus 1 into D upon 2A plus n minus 1 into D is equal to m square upon n square into n upon m. Now n cancels out with n and m with 1m so we have m upon n here 2 cancels out with 2 therefore on cross multiplying n goes the numerator of the right hand side and m on the denominator. So we have 2A plus m minus 1 into D upon 2A plus n minus 1 into D is equal to m upon n. Let this be equation number 1. Now we have to find the ratio of mth term is to nth term and An upon An is equal to A plus m minus 1 into D upon A plus n minus 1 into D. Now on multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2 this can further be written as mth term upon nth term equal to 2A plus 2 times of m minus 1 into D upon 2A plus 2 times of n minus 1 into D. Let this be equation number 2. Now L it is of 1 which is 2A plus m minus 1 into D upon 2A plus n minus 1 into D will be identical with 2 right hand side of 2 if m minus 1 replaces 2n minus 2 and n minus 1 replaces 2 times of n minus 1. So replacing m by 2n minus 1 and n by 2n minus 1 on both sides of 1 we will get the arches of equation 2.  This is equal to 2m minus 1 upon 2n minus 1 and this is 2A plus 2 times of m minus 1 into D upon 2A plus 2 times of n minus 1 into D which is equal to 2m minus 1 upon 2n minus 1. So this is the mth term and this is the nth term. So we have 2m minus 1 upon 2n minus 1 and this shows that the ratio of mth nth term is equal to 2m minus 1 is to 2n minus 1. So this completes the session. Take care and have a good day.


It's definitely a proud moment and it's unquestionably going to put some weight on my portfolio And it's actually like a good moment and it's boosting my confidence because you know youngsters these days Unsure about which field or Profession they should be and at this time for me to get this recognition will definitely make me feel like I'm doing the right thing When as soon as I joined in like people would always tell me whenever I would not achieve something I faced the night people always tell me you're so young you have a long time to go So I feel people who just enter shouldn't take that sentence too seriously You shouldn't wait to achieve it later when you're a senior you still start from day one and that'll be like my advice


In this video, we're going to talk about a new SPAC stock, which is one of the new ones and we're going to go through the potential of this stock. Some of the information about this stock is current price, which is incredibly low, which obviously means that it has a lot of upside potential for this because of the current price. It hasn't got a lot of attention yet, but I think that obviously that's going to start to come about more and more. This stock is going to be a long-term play, I think, in terms of the potential for it. It can swing trade, obviously, but we're going to go through this. It's going to be, should you buy THBR stock, which is Indie Semiconductor? We'll go into this, what this stock does, the information, some of the fundamentals behind it, some of the finances behind it. We're going to some depth in this video on some of the information and hopefully it's helpful for you. If it is, at some point, if you can leave a like on the video, that would be much, much appreciated. It helps out on the YouTube algorithm, helps it get up into the YouTube algorithm and increase in the search results. I've also got to say I'm not a financial advisor. I do teach business in my daily life, but I'm by no means an expert on the stock market. Let's go into THBR. There's recently been some news out in terms of an agreement. The agreement is Indie Semiconductor enters definitive, definitive. It's important, definitive. So it's not rumors, it's not speculation now. It's essentially, this is very much likely to happen. It's a definitive merger. So Indie Semiconductor enters definitive merger agreement with Thunderbridge Acquisition 2. Indie Conductor is a leading pure player provider of next generation semiconductor and software solutions for the rapidly growing auto tech market. Enabling ADAS autonomous connectivity, user experience and vehicle electrification applications. It's a very diversified business in terms of it's involved, yes, in the automotive sector, but it is involved in different sorts of applications within that. So that's interesting. The business combined with Thunderbridge Acquisition, a position Indie capitalized of 2 billion of strategic backlog and an additional 2.5 billion in identifying pipeline opportunities driven by deep relationships with TO1 automotive suppliers. That's brilliant. So it provides up to 495 million in cash to combine company before expenses. So this SPAC measure is ultimately going to help provide a good cash injection into semiconductor, which is obviously going to impact their research and development. They're going to put more money into that potentially. They might put more money into marketing or whatever it is. But this cash injection is going to help in the growth of the company overall. So some of the investment thesis and this is an excerpt from their presentation. I put my own presentation together and I'm taking some excerpts and some information and sources, some information from their website and investor relations page. So just to go through this and you can obviously do your own due diligence and look at this in detail as well. But I just want to pick out some key areas that I think is quite interesting. So it's a next-gen automotive semiconductor and software platform, solving the most complex and demanding challenges, which is brilliant. 2 billion of strategic backlog, we've mentioned that. Well-positioned in massive secular growth market for high growth. Margin rich, 38 billion by 2025. Peruvian leadership team with a track record of extraordinary value creation. So the fact that they've got a strong leadership team to help drive the growth of the company is good for the sustainability of the company. You know, the economic sustainability, the reputational sustainability and just the overall health of the company. And you've got, say, transaction accelerates roadmap and drive substantial growth and profitability. And now, obviously, your profitability is key. As investors, we want to see good levels of profitability. It tends to be good for the stock. So just some figures here. And I don't, again, I don't want to go through all of everything, you know, because this would be like a eight-fifty minute video. I'm picking out the key bits that I feel that might be, you know, kind of helpful to note in this. And by the way, if you like this sort of format of video where I'd give it, like, as a presentation style and go through it, then do leave the video a like as well. I'd be much appreciated. So we've got the transaction parameters. So in terms of that, we mentioned that. Then you've got the, here, so proposed transaction overview, £980 million, purse money enterprise value, in terms of that. So there's a lot of information in terms of the financing. It tends to be a company that's got quite strong finances. It's got a strong financial background in what it's doing. And it's got some due diligence that it obviously conducted there. So it's very thorough, it seems. So this is interesting, the exposure to multiple secular growth drivers. So what are these? What are the areas that they're trying to provide solutions for in particular industries? Okay. So we've got the autonomous area. And we all know kind of the autonomous area of driving is growing. But underneath that, you need obviously the tech for the autonomous vehicles. So what they're doing is they've got step function increase in safety application requirements. And AI acceleration is poorly serviced by incumbents. So they're looking at particular areas of the autonomous industry. And they're seeing where can we add value, which is great. Then they've got connectivity. So OEM desire to monetize data, which we all know in terms of data. There's a lot of money to be made there.   The only way they can do that is because of the data they have collected from you using their platform. So the idea that they're looking at kind of a data driven monetization. That's interesting. Lots of potential. Platform, the next smart firm. Interesting. User experience and user experience is a key component here. So consumers demand UX to mirror their mobile device replacement cycle now driven by UX, not talk and horsepower. So yeah, so it's about building that user experience within the vehicle itself as well, which is really important part of that experience of the vehicle. And you got electrification. So government mandates across Europe, China and the U.S. So there's more electric vehicles coming about, more cars have been electrified and that is a growing industry. We all know that. So it's up to 30% of vehicle production could be EV by 2025-2026. So they're trying to, this company is trying to be involved in the EV sector and trying to see what value they can add. So they're involved here within a range of areas, which is good. It's a diversified approach. Then you got the Indy lead our integration as well. It has a mixed signal processors, optical engines, scene scanners, power management, direct car, battery connection in terms of low power and high efficiency. And ultimately what this aims to do is obviously reduce power by 10 times and cost by 20 times. So it's more cost affordable, less running costs, making it more economically affordable and more economically sustainable. So this is an interesting approach. Then some of the financial aspects of the company. So it's projected 85% compounded growth rate for 2020-2025. That is a lot of growth for them to be saying that they think they're going to achieve.  I'm sure that they've put that there for obviously a reason based upon the products that they're offering and the potential of that. But that is ambitious as well. But you're nothing to say that they could potentially achieve that. And if they do achieve that, then that's obviously fantastic for the stock price and anybody who's invested in this. Two billion of strategic backlog, 60% of aggregate revenues through 2025 already shipping slash one stages. So they've already got pre-orders. They're already shipping aspects of the products. So they've already starting to actually build up certain parts of that revenue, which is really good. And as a SPAC, that's incredibly good because some SPACs don't even have a working product. Some SPACs don't even have any previous sales or pre-orders or anything. You know, some of them anyway. So obviously there's other SPACs that are great. But this is promising for a SPAC. Operating leverage produces 30% target EBIT margin. So driven by higher margin product mix. So in terms of there's high margins involved. Capital efficient, fabulous business model. So it's highly scalable global supply chain. So in terms of trying to scale the business also into a global context, which is interesting that they thought of that in terms of the financial highlights. So what are some of the benefits of the business in terms of the SPAC and the potential of it? They've got diversified solutions. Okay. So like I say, they're involved in a range of industries. The industries that they are involved in are growing industries there. So there is a lot of demand and a lot of potential. It looks like they've got an impressive team with a lot of people with industry experience. And you know, a lot of the companies that are successful are successful based upon the team that they have there. So the fact that they've got an impressive team is comforting to know. And it looks like it's an incredibly exciting company in terms of the areas they're involved with. I think that this is incredibly exciting. And actually, I think I'm putting a, I've been researching this company. I haven't yet put a position on, but I think I'm going to be putting a position in this company. Because I think that this has got more upside than it has downside. Put it that way. My only concern is obviously the SPAC volatility of it. You know, SPACs are going up and down in price. And there's a lot of volatility involved with the SPAC. And you don't want to catch it at the run up. I don't know why I'm drawing that, but you know, you don't want to catch it at the run up and then have it come down. And then you're stuck up here. And it takes, you know, a few weeks for it to actually reach its previous highs. So with the SPAC, you do have to be careful to when you actually enter it in. And that is the same with every other stock. But it's incredibly important because of the volatility of SPACs. Now this is the current price. We're at $10.51. So it did have a bit of a run up to $11 after the sort of news and sort of pre-news of that. And that's on the 15th of December. So it ran up to $11.50. So you can see the potential of the potential to it to run up to the $11.50. And even beyond that, it's possibly $12 and $13 and $14. And even further, this stock in the long term could 2X and 3X just based upon where it's, you know, involved in. So it's quite a decent lower level, $10.51 at the minute. I really want to get into this. I may start a small position around this price, but then I really want it to dip to sort of $10.30 if it can. And then I'll maybe add in some more shares. But certainly I think that this is one of these stocks that you could consider adding because it is already at a fairly low price. And there's a lot of upside potential to it. Okay.

Yeah, it's all yours. Thank you It's working here. Okay All right. Good evening and thank you for the invitation I'm so happy to be back at the Cooper Hewitt Museum and to present you some of my work Let's try to fix it What I wanted to tell you before we start the presentation is that I collect a series of Body of work that I've done posters, logo ties, motion graphic pieces and I wanted to show you also the design process I'm going through, you know, I don't want you to show only the final result But also how everything is made and developed step by step I'm sorry. I'm sitting because I can see the screen better. I hope you don't mind There's no more Thank you. Thank you. Thank you I'm working a lot with typography and I like design Typography in a very expressive way meaning that for instance what you see on the screen there are a series of Experimental type faces that have been designed over the years Let's start with a very recent work This is a scarf. Actually, it's not a poster. It's a scarf and it was made for Hermès, the brand the luxurious brand that was commissioned to design this scarf and The theme was about to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of Roland Barthes Roland Barthes was a French philosopher who explored semiotic and social and design theory and I was asked to design the scarf on the books called the lover discourse fragment and what I saw I Look at the way the book is composed And you see that Roland Barthes paid attention a lot about the the layout of his text Meaning that it isn't the this text doesn't start from the first page to the end But there's also it's completely fragmented. You have some empty spaces between the Paragraphers and what I decided to do is to silhouette it all of them, you know making them very graphic and by that I Did the old book meaning that I did Put it the book altogether all the pages next to each other and it created Completely pattern the thing also that I wanted to do was to reverse the The black to the whites that mean that the end that that's what it gives on on the on the textile on the textile also the if I went to this Ideas is because Roland Barthes Worked a lot but it works a lot about the structural is and this Reveal the structure of the book itself it's like the the thumbnails on the railroad of the FF is a say from the front cover to the back cover and also when you design a scarf It's very different than designing a poster because it's two side and at the beginning I wanted to do something with typography, but I realized that it would be Problematic because on the other side, I mean typography can be readable so this is a very brand-new work and It revealed also the way I like to to work with abstract shapes Using also the not only the positive shape But this is the negative shape the silence of it to try to reveal something from the grid system Which are something that I learned actually during my studies and all the Internship that I did in the Netherlands because I'm really swallow all the Dutch design in the way I'm working. I Shoot that image that doesn't have anything to do with graphic, but it was a very emblematic images in the 1989 in China at Beijing during the you know the Demonstration there and I use that because I was asked to design a poster for a literature festival in Exemple Vance, which is the city in the south of France and on in 2012 the theme was Noises of the world which means that they invited four or five riders who are Activists political activism In their country from China from the Middle East from the east of Europe and each of them try to fight for Equal justice and they press weight hurts so in French It's called we do more which means noise of the world and I try to combine a typography and matter and drawings just by Fingerprints and I like to work like that, you know to mixed technique I think if you want to bring something an emotional dimension in a poster it's interesting to not to froze yourself with the technology with the computer but really to bring something that you can do with hands with your hands and the elongation of each letters bring a kind of dialogue with all of them and Show direction and at the end. That's the final poster. I wanted to also to find the right color I pay attention to the color at the end of the the old process for me color become comes at the end I always think in black and white first and then the color the light blue is the color of hope It's the color of the sky. It's also the color of a big ocean and then you see the letters. They're like island and The fact that there you have these fingerprints is also to talk about the time passing This is another sketch For a poster is called vivo in tipo and it was a poster I designed for an exhibition of my own work the title which I found was means live with typography to live with typography to be completely Inspire I mean immersed, you know in typography and I try to Design the letters by the accumulation of punctuation if I blow up if I you see the blow you have the feeling of transparency and On texture on weaving and that's something also that I like to do with my work It's trying to find something that it looks like there's a 3d effect. There's a something In the printed matter that is not flat anymore I'm doing a lot as I explained it to you with experimental typography. This is done for theater in the south of France in Toulouse and I Just play with this very abstract shape and you see I use the the primary colors and Why I did that because on stage when you mix them, you know, you create white White light, you know the light of Purely white is created by the mix of primary color So to overlap some letters you have some white in surface and it tells about the theater Atmosphere each year's it's a result of experimentation for instance That was the year after so those posters are made to announce the season each time and this is a kind of pointy isn't made with typography and Just the dots are next to each other Some part of them are blackout and by turning them it creates later you can read it from distance That's another thing. Also. I like to do is to play with the way you see the work from a distance and from very nearby This is the most recent one and This is perhaps more a Classica will tell by the fact that I didn't design the typeface myself But I wanted to to mix them all together to try to to fill the space of the poster as much as I can without losing the readability and also try to limit myself with the number of colors and Make something that is an alternation it alternates each color You know are next to each other and they complete to and they just play and they became at the end a kind of detail of a big weaving again, you know, I Like movement to play movement with into the topography before I'm talking about this image I wanted to tell you that with the new technology What is fabulous is that you can really bring movement in in ladders By essence later or not made to to be moved, but I think it's it's a great Opportunity that we have in our time, you know to to bring motion to meet with topography I would show you some other example. Let me talk about another poster, which is on view upstairs on the second floor it was designed for a Theater in Paris called a chateau lay and it was at the occasion to presented the 1946 American opera called streets in by court vile the story depict the life in the Lower East side and When I'm starting to design poster I'm always looking for, you know, some documentation So I try to find some images of what is the Lower East side and I knew that the on stage There will be something that we produce that You know your urban landscape and I try you know to focus on this on the steps that you have on in front of each building of the tenements and Immediately as I thought to myself well, perhaps I can you know play with the ladders and try to do something You know to to do something with the step But I didn't know what exactly and when you do things like this on the computer Even if it looks quite interesting, it's very dry and very mechanical It doesn't really tell so much about the story itself and I wanted to have something a little bit more dramatic So what I did I start to think about using the two words and unfolded several time to recreate the steps in 3d and When I did that on a computer was interesting but not strong enough because I thought once again You have the limit of the technology and even if you can find if you can do everything you want You lose perhaps what I call the image emotional dimension that I'm looking for in every work that I'm trying to do So that's the reason why I went to the old technique and doing it by hand This are laser print which have been you know paste and on on a form core and fold it and then by Doing several photos different shoot and put it on the computer and then you go back and forth You know by the very traditional technique to the with the new tools Photoshop, so I I was able you know to retouch the the photo and to include it in the old Composition and then it's not only the the step that you can see of the tenement But also the way that the typography is placed reveal all the detail of this Architecture meaning of the facade meaning the bricks the pediments the the doors the windows the lintels and It plays also with the space of the poster. I'm really paying attention about proportion of the space And that's what you will see on those sketches of a poster I designed for the the institutional navigable waterways of French who had organized an exhibition of Model of antique barges instead to reproduce the barges I saw that I can reveal them just with the typography by the elongation by of the The typography itself. That's the final posture. You see that the type Elongated segment create the images of the barges with their reflection in the water and I'm paying also a lot of attention to control the proportion that the empty space everything has a Clearly space for it to not place just by random. It's very in control at the end This is the corporate identity I did for that Institution and of course what I wanted to try to do was to To reveal the the light Reflection upon the water and the movement of the water and when I was talking to you about the grid system You can see here.  You see that the light blue has only three columns The black is four columns and the white is five columns So there's a reason that is created step by step and by overlapping them once again you create a kind of 3d effect It's like there's a death in in the poster This is something different it's a poster that I've designed almost 10 years ago But I still very much like it because once again it was about Experimental typography to do type only by using slashes. It was a poster about for an exhibition About the art and the creation and the the history of a region in France called a Lorraine Which is located on the northeast of the country and it's well known for the textile production And I was very much inspired by by by the fact that we've just a Simple slouch I can repeat it and make an accumulation and work with the spacing of it the space and Create once again the feeling of movement. I use it again for a poster of my of an exhibition I had in Ukraine few years ago and because it was a great source of Work for instance, you see those motion graphic pieces. I don't know if they work. They don't Don't know what doesn't matter normally to move but anyway, so you can see that the old alphabet have been Created was created It's coming. Okay Just take times just for you to know and I Found a lot of my inspiration by looking at the painting as you probably saw before for instance But also in performing art and that's something I wanted to tell you why you watch this. I Learned a lot by watching Dance performances Contemporary dance especially, you know from America. I mean I had the chance to to see the very young the performances by Alvin E. Colise and Cunningham and Matagram all these people really inspire me so much and still are This is something completely different and you can't really see on the screen, but there is a series of book cover It's a review called Afri Contrapo and Contemporary Africa and the logo type has been what was the occasion to design a specific typeface Completely abstract again completely experimental and I use it, you know also for the the the pages that announce every chapter and once again, it was the idea of you bring in the movement by Taking away part of the letters I mean they're just fading away and you can see there's a progression of it and that's one of the poster which was designed for for that review and for that, I mean When I was talking to you about inspiration that I look a lot about all this artifact Which are made in Africa and that's really the way I went to find the idea I'm talking again to the same literature festival in Ex-en Provence And this is really the last poster of design and because it's going to happen in the next month And it's the homage to Swedish writers called Henrik Mankel who is very well known from the crime novels and The title of it is from the snow to the sand these are sketches and Why that because he's living part-time in Sweden and in Mozambique and he said I have a foot in the snow and I have a foot in The sand so just with typography This is the poster you and it's very hard to see on the screen, but it's a low-raise and they use the bitmap texture and What I try again to express instead to show a landscape, you know of stuff a desert of Snow of something I think that only with typography and with very small amount of color you can express The the thing typography has a lot of meaning If you cut part of the letters if you play with with them in the space, so you you give life to them You you you increase the meaning of them the sense and the concept also of course And once again here you see how much I care about the proportion and how things are placed in The surface of the page. This is the last logo. I designed them at the very most recent logo type a F a it's for the words a meblement, which means furnishing and F for French French And this is a union that promotes the All what has what all what is related to French furnishing not only the distributor, but also the manufacturers and I'll try to design two very abstract letters This is the the logo with the Title of it, which is made in Avenue, but I made some very few changes for instance You know the sea of Francais, which is completely redesigned But I tried to make it really playful The idea was to to abstract the letters and to make them look like if they are furniture view from above that you can move in a space and it's a play of very simple shapes and You can see on this motion graphic pieces how the logo can even be expanded It's like if you push a furniture next to the wall in the room and in another another room And then you play with the positive and the negative and it's become very playful Attractive and very eye-catching also and that's what we are looking for when we design corporate identity this is Something very different very abstract and I was extremely surprised when I got the commission by Hermès again to design the number for swatch And for watch not false watch for watch Well, I mean, I know that recently they did something with the Apple watch. I don't know if you heard about it But I mean there's a big thing anyway, so Hermès commissioned me to design the numbers and I tried to to make them very abstract again on why that and very fine because They told me that the watch is going to to be very very fine very very Flat so I tried only with one line to design all the numbers and you have to keep in mind that The watch is a very very small object, so it has to be really in very very tiny Surface you see it in really big on the screen, but in fact, it's a very small one it's the most recent watch for by Hermès and It's called slim slim by Hermès slim because everything is so refined It brings me to some posture I designed for for exhibition ahead recently at the Musée des Arts décoratifs in Paris, which is almost like the the brother and the sister of this museum here and the the exhibition called tiporama and this is The posture you it reveal how the letter were made by first segment and it's a poster typefaces that I designed myself and at the occasion the The museum published in association with Thames and Hudson a very big book which is still available a thing in the English version version and Just to you the year after there was another exhibition in excellent Provence We call it tipo appelloy and I and I didn't find the title of it They wanted me to use my name, which is not that easy it of course every every creative people have an ego and I do have like Everyone but I must tell you that it's not easy to use my own name certain such a bigger Scale but I start to think about it and typo. It's the the abbreviation of that means this means type It's typo for typography and I always try to use what the random give me you know by counting the letters and trying to find the right combination that we feel something like if it was made for it and It's just happened that you know I found a way to cross the two words and to reveal this the sorrow of what I'm looking for when I'm doing every day and that's an image of the exhibition we Design the poster where a floating in the air in the middle of a huge room and You see them on both sides and here you see some posters that have shown you for instance the Vivo in tipo poster and crossing the line was made for Festival here in New York, which is organized and by the French Institute and Now I'm preparing the next exhibition. I'm very lucky and spoiled and it's going to happen in the state Museum is start next year and it's called using type and this is the poster of it and That's what up I try to to go as fast as I can but then you can see the motion graphic pieces that we do for the exhibition if you have questions later I can answer you. Thank you


Hey Abbott, what time is it? It's time for the Abbott and Costello Show. We're on the air for ABC here in Hollywood. Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go with the Abbott and Costello Show. Yes, it's the Abbott and Costello Show, produced and transcribed in Hollywood for your listening and laughing pleasure. Juckles with a carload and music by Matty Malnet. So hold on to your chairs, folks, where here they are, but Abbott and Lou Costello. What's up? What's up tonight? I'll be the party. I say, what's up tonight? Well, I'll be the policy intercept, at the end of the first quarter, a drunk came in and yelled, who's game? It may jump at us as I am. Well, that man doesn't know much about football, does she? Oh, she thinks the rooting section is the front end of a pig. Which end is? You don't know much about football yourself, do you? You should have seen me in college, Abbott. I was a triple-thrump man. I could run, kick, and pass. Boy, I could really throw it in those days. You're not doing so bad tonight, are you? 30 touchdowns in the last 10 seconds of the game. Wait a minute, wait a minute. How could you make 30 touchdowns in 10 seconds? I had to. My mother had a bet on a game. You know, the quarterback would drop back, and then the left guard tackle left in would open up a hole, and the hole big enough you could drive a truck through. And what did you do? I drove the truck. There were only 21 men between me and a goal post. 21 men? Yes, even my teammates hated me. That's enough, Costello. I don't think you know the first thing about football. Tell me, what is an unbalanced line? An unbalanced line? Yes, Sydney Green Street's belt. I, for the more, I don't think you're even at a football game this afternoon. Oh, yes, I was, doing a half, oh, yes, I was. Doing a half time, a section of the bleachers where all the cohorts were sitting collapsed, and I dashed over. Did you rent the first aid? Yes, sir, I picked up a cute little blonde and started carrying her out when a fella says, here. Give her to me, and I said, nothing to them, brother. There's plenty more back there.  Oh, get them out of here. Well, there's a sample of a high-grade nonsense you'll be hearing for the next half hour. But before we get back to it, listen to this. I like it myself.  All right, never mind that. Look, where have you been all day, Lou? Where have you been all day? Well, I'll tell you, I was hoping my aunt made me. She refurnished a whole house for Thanksgiving. What kind of furniture did she get? Chairs, tables, and beds. No, no, no, no, no.  Louis XIV, the Colonial, or late French provincial? It's early army surplus. What? Does Uncle Mark like the furniture? Yes, especially the four-poster bed. Last night, he kicked her over the end of the floor. He kicked her right over the end of the four-poster bed. Why in the world did he do a thing like that? He dreamed he was playing for Notre Dame and his team needed the extra point.  You're both dopes. Yeah, my Uncle Mike is no dope habit. He happens to be a very clever inventor. He just invented a new kind of motorcycle, and it's so fast. Get this. This motorcycle is so fast that you can get on it and in Los Angeles at midnight and be in Cucamonga at two o'clock in the morning. Is that so? Yeah, but there's only one thing wrong with it. What's that? Who wants to be in Cucamonga at two o'clock in the morning? Proves what I've always said. Your Uncle Mike is a shiftless loafer. He gambles away every cent that he gets. Oh, no, he reformed that, but he's never gonna shoot dice or play cards again. Ah, he said that before. I know, but this time, a judge said it. All right. Does Uncle Mike still drink as much as ever, Lou? Nah, now he quits when he's had enough. How can he tell when he's had enough? Well, he sits across the table from Aunt May and he sits there with a big button. He starts drinking. The minute Aunt May starts looking good to him, he knows he's had enough. Does your Uncle Mike and Aunt May fight as much as they used to? No, but they had an argument yesterday. She clouded them in a push and then kicked them in the stomach. Kicked them in the stomach? Yeah, but that was his fault. He turned around. Does your Uncle Mike still work for the Orange Growers, Lou? Oh, yes, yes. Some very important man in the orange business, Abbott. He's the only guy that can tell a California orange from a Florida orange. How does he do it? Well, he cuts an orange in half, holds it over a map of the United States and squeezes it. If it's a California orange, it squirts all over Florida. Look, Lou, did you have a good Thanksgiving dinner? Well, I'll tell you as soon as I get to it. Yes, I did. I found it. Yes. But we didn't have any turkey. You didn't have a turkey. Why not? By the time I got to the butchers, all the finance companies were closed. You mean to tell me that the price of turkeys is that high? Oh, the price is high. Yeah. There was one woman in a butcher shop that didn't buy anything and that weighed two pounds. Never mind that. Did you buy a turkey? I handed the butcher two bucks and says, what kind of turkey can I buy for that? And he hand me an egg. An egg? Yeah. An egg.  What do you think I got? I got a duck. A duck?  Well, with the YWCA. The YWCA? Why, men aren't allowed in there. I know, but I love to go there. It takes so many of them to throw you out. You wanted to have Thanksgiving dinner with a girl. Why didn't you have a, why didn't you make a date with my wife? My wife's twin sister, Ella. Abbot, when I sit down at the table for Thanksgiving, I want to see a turkey, not an old crow. Ella's a lovely girl. Now, if you want to make a hit with her, why don't you buy her a box of candy? You know, she has a sweet tooth. I know, I've seen it. Too bad she hasn't got some more to go with it. Gentlemen, I've got a few turkeys left over from the Thanksgiving rush. Would you like to buy one? What kind of turkeys have you got? I've got Texas turkeys and Vermont turkeys. How do you tell them what? Vermont turkeys are still wearing Hoover buttons. I don't think we'd be interested. Turkeys are too high this year. Well then, how about buying a raffle ticket on a great big turkey for a quarter? I'll take two of them. Here's a half a buck. Thanks. Here's your tickets for the biggest turkey in town. Wait, just a minute. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. These aren't turkeys for, they're tickets for a turkey. These tickets are for the Abbott and Costello radio show. Do you know of a bigger turkey? I'll break every bone in his body. Where did he go? He went through that door. He did, huh? Yeah. Open up that door. Well, the door is open. What are you gonna do about it? What do you want? I just wanted to say goodbye. Costello was a shame. Thanksgiving day is nearly over and you didn't even get a turkey. Well, someday I'll be rich. Someday I'll have plenty of money. And when I do, I'll get a seat on the Chicago stockyard. You mean stock exchange? I mean stockyard. When all that meat comes in, I wanna be there. Costello, I'm afraid you'll never have any money. You don't know the value of a dollar. How can I? Every time I learn the value of a dollar, some guy in Washington changes it. Giving, boys. Look, Costello, it's our secretary, Viola Vaughn. Viola, you look beautiful. How about you and me stepping out after the show? Oh, tonight? Gee, I'll be tied up at home tonight. Good, maybe you'll be more fun that way. I'll come over and I'll tie you. Viola, you must be very busy. Every time Costello asks you for a date, you're busy. Well, I am busy. Mondays, I go to gym class. Tuesdays, I play golf. Wednesdays, I go horseback riding. And when I have nothing on, I go swimming. You couldn't pick a better time for it. A little second thought, this is Thanksgiving and I'm kinda hungry for a date. Then why not go out with me? Avic, she says she's hungry. She's not starving. Now, I suppose I did invite you over to my house tonight, Costello. What would you do? Oh, well, we play games. We play like hide and seek, maybe post office. Oh, that's a kid's game. Not the way I play it. All right now. How do you play hide and seek?   It's a lot of fun. Wait a minute, where does the fun come in? We both run to the same closet. Nah, Costello, I don't think I'll invite you over. You're too fickle. What do you mean?  No, no, no. So what? My name is not Rita. What are you kicking about? I said no, didn't I? Ah, Viola was right. You are fickle. You're always flirting with girls. Last night I saw you driving down Hollywood Boulevard and you winked at a girl. I only winked because something got in my eye. And she got in your car, too. I'm surprised at you two arguing over girls. You're right, Viola. They aren't worth it.    Why don't you find yourself a girl and get married? Viola, you're the kind of a girl I'd love to be married to. Oh, why do you want to marry me? Being married to you would be wonderful. We could have 10 children. 10 children? Yes, and if we like them the second year, we could have 10 more. Viola would be silly to marry you.  Mr. Abbott is right, Costello. I understand that you've kissed every blonde in Hollywood. I have not. Well, all right, name one blonde in Hollywood you haven't kissed. I'll name two. Alan Ladd and Van Johnson.  They wouldn't? No, they wouldn't. Okay, I'll scratch their names out of my book. See, Viola, I was right. Costello's not the guy for you. He has no brains. He has no looks and he has no money. Now, I'm beginning to think you're right. Just a minute.  No! No, no, no, no! What's taking you? Before it gets too thick, let's interrupt it for another reminder on a serious subject. Well, and here's our new singer, Hal Winters. Let's give Hal a nice big hand. Nice big hand for Hal Winters. Come over here. What are you doing out there in the hall? Hey, Abbott, the employees of the network just raffled off a turkey. And my number was 1-1-8-9-6-4-3-2-6-5-9-2. And? And, and a fellow stander right next to me, he had number 1-1-8-9-6-4-3-2-6-5-9-1. So he said to me, I'll trade you my number 1-1-8-9-6-4-3-2-6-5-9-1 for your number 1-1-8-9-6-4-3-6-5-9-2. So? So I traded him my number 1-1-8-9-6-4-3-2-6-5-9-1. For his number 1-1-3-9-6-4-3-2-6-5-9-2. Well, who won the turkey? One of the vice presidents would take a number three. If all the turkeys in the world were laid end to end, that's the part I would get. Crazy about turkey. Today, when she sat down at the table, she had a turkey neck. Why don't you wear a muffler? Nobody would notice it. Roll the paper under your arm. That's a Thanksgiving play we're gonna do for the people tonight. And I wrote it myself. Well, what's the name of your play? I call it The Brave Little Band of Pilgrims who landed on Honest John's rock. Yeah, tell me that's Plymouth Rock. How do you like that? Even in those days, Honest John was the only one that could get a Plymouth. Never mind that. Let's get along with the play. The killer of Costello's play, we take you back to the year 1620, where we find a brave little band of adventurers aboard the Good Ship Mayflower. The brave captain has eaten nothing but fish. Nothing but fish for 90 days. But that doesn't faze him. Let's listen to this fish phase. Make John Olden Costello. Where are you? Here I am, Captain Miles Standish Abbott. We've had some pretty tough weather. How's the ship holding up? I have a report on the Misen mass. What about the Misen mass? It's been misen for three days. Look out! There's a note stuck to that dagger. Aha! There's mutiny among the men. Read this note, First Mate John Olden Costello.  Which one of you swabs wrote this? I did, sir. Give that man 20 lashes and a box of Snickers. I know what we'll do. We'll put the whole crew on bread and water. Why pamper them? Better meet the regular food. Think you made a mistake. When we left England, I think you forgot to untie a boat from the dock. What makes you say that? Just look behind us. We're in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and people are still waving goodbye to us. Look! Look, John Olden Costello, there's land ahead. We should be proud. The Mayflower has broken all records for the Atlantic crossing. Yes, we beat the Queen Elizabeth by 326 years. Thank Columbus for showing us the way. He marked the route. That's funny. I didn't see a Burma Shave sign all the way across. John Olden Costello, watch where you're searing the boat. Don't worry, Captain Miles Stannis have it. I know every reef along this coast. There's one now.  That's the shore. Quick, drop the anchor. Aye-aye, sir. Here she goes. Tell her, what are you doing down there in the water? Well, you're asking me for one. It's just a sound man. He just got soaked. I forgot to let go of the anchor. So the little boat Mayflower made the crossing. The shore was deserted. No Indians came down to greet them. It was seven o'clock on a Sunday night. All the Indians were home in their wigwam. Listen, they're all trying to guess the mystery tune on Stop the Tom Time. First mate John Olden Costello drops the gang plank and down the runway comes the beautiful Priscilla. You and I are the first people to set foot on this new land. This virgin territory belongs to no one. Priscilla, my love, are you sure this land belongs to no one? Look what it says on that rock. What? Los Angeles city limits. Olden Costello, our people are starving. We must go into the woods and get food for our little band of pilgrims. Look over there, Rabbit. There's a field of corn. That's Indian corn. That's maize. Do you think maize would mind if we take a little? What are you talking about? You just said the corn belonged to maize. I did not. I said the corn was maize. Then it's maize corn. That's right. What's wrong with finding maize and asking for some of her corn? I didn't say the corn belonged to maize. I merely said the corn was maize. How do you like that? Here it is, the year of 1620 and this guy is starting a routine. That's how maize is Indian corn. The Indians grind their own corn. Those Indians are smart. We pay riders to grind ours. Here comes an Indian. I'll be friendly and say hello to him. How do you say hello to an Indian? How? I asked you first. I just told you. Told me what? How? If I knew how, I wouldn't be asking you. What did you ask me? How? Now, now you've got it. Got it. Now I'm really mixed up. It may be after our scalps. Well, look, there's a note tied on that arrow. I'll read it.  See, Chief Tomahawk can lose it all at once. Castella, it comes in an Indian and he has his hand raised. Say something to him. Chief, you can go now. Uh, me scalp. Me chief, chief underwear. Why do they call you chief, chief underwear? Me creep up on you. Step him aside and make way for big chief. That must have been a super chief. Watch him language pale face. Meet him big chief running water. He looks like a big drip. Chief, meet my friend John Alden Castello.   Abbott, we gotta get better actors.  That's... Oak. Oak. Listen, Tubby. I've got as much right to play an Indian as you have to play John Alden. Oh, yeah? I'll have you know that my great-grandfather goes back to Martha Washington. He does? Yes, of course. He only goes back there when George is in home. Oh, who cares about that? I've got troubles of my own. Why, only this morning, I was sending up some smoke signals to my sweetheart, Pocahontas. And what happened? Her father came along and put out my fire. Well, I've got to go now. And as we say in Indian, you father, I'm stead, I'm a hawk to you.  Alden Castell, I have the courage to propose to the fair Priscilla. You, as my best friend, must do it for me. You mean you want me to make love to the fair Priscilla for you? Yes. He doesn't know me very well, does he, folks? Go into Priscilla's cabin, John Alden Castell. Propose to her, propose to her for me. Tell her, tell her I'm a soldier. And if she refuses me, I'll go back to the bottle. You mean you'll go back to the battle? You'll go back to what you like, and I'll go back to what I like. Knock my head in. Castella, my little bouncing Boston-baked beans. Ah, Priscilla, my little tomato. Smother me with a ketchup of your kisses. When I'm close to you like this, something cold seems to spread all over me. It does.  Hey, tell me, why have you come here? To propose to you for my dear friend, Myles Stendish Abbott, the poor, broken-down guy. He couldn't come himself, he's all shot. He's practically falling apart. He can't even read a straight line anymore. And he's not ready to cut me, can he? Priscilla, my love. Not used to straight lines either. Priscilla, my love. You couldn't go for him, could you? Are you proposing for him? Sure. It must be wonderful to have a true devoted friend like you. If Myles Stendish Abbott had another friend like me, he wouldn't need any enemies. Oh, why don't you speak for yourself, John Alden Castello, honey? I'd love to marry you, Priscilla, but I can't. I'm already married. Wait a minute, Castello. We're doing a story from history. And the history books say that John Alden was a bachelor. That was before the historians found out about John's other wife. Oh, let me out of here. I've never heard through it yet. Right now, they want you to hear this. We didn't get a chance to do our Sam Shovel detective mysteries tonight. That's right, Abbott, but Sam Shovel will be back next Thursday night. Well, what is your Sam Shovel story for next week? Well, it's one of my liveliest cases. I call it the case of the Coors girls who went swimming in their underwear or down to the sea in slips. Well, that's about all for the night, Castello. All except telling the folks about our Svel gang that helps put the show together, our writing staff is headed by Eddie Foreman with Paul Conlon, Pat Costello, Martin Raghaway, and Leonard Stern. And let's not forget our capable producer, Charles Vendor. And let's not forget to say good night. Good night, folks. Good night, everybody of Paterson.


Hello people of the internet, my name is Johnny, welcome back to another FNAF news video and in today's video we're finally going to be talking about a massive Funko leak that happened a few weeks ago that revealed a whole bunch of upcoming FNAF Funko products that in my opinion are some of the most exciting products we've seen in a long, long time. I'm talking a second wave of security breach merchandise, action figures and plushies for the daycare attendant, some FNAF AR characters as well as what could be our first look at a brand new set of characters we're going to see in the upcoming Ruin DLC. So if you're brand new to the channel please double check, make sure you're subscribed to the channel, we actually just hit 46,000 subscribers. We're trying to get 50k by the end of the year but of course we can only do it with your help. Also if you're brand new to the channel hit the like button and now let's hop into the brand new reveals. Kicking it off we got an update on some more Funko statues. You may remember a long time ago we got those Glamrock Freddy, Gregory and Vanny and Vanessa statues and they were heavily praised in the community and we all thought it was only a matter of time until we got more from Funko and shortly after those statues we actually got a leak from Tony Mario Bros who by the way has supplied all the leaks in this video. I'll leave their Twitter link down below, please go show them some support but they leaked that Foxy and Lefty would be getting their own Funko statues and there wasn't a whole lot of news on when they were coming out but fortunately it seems like we have an estimated time of release this time. That being fall of this year 2022 which may seem a little weird because I mean we're in fall right now and we have no official update on the statues so here's hoping they're still gonna release around this season but honestly I guess we're just gonna have to wait and find out. And now we move on to the huge leak that Tony provided us and this is the lineup and I know it looks like a lot and trust me it is but we're gonna go through it very slow so let's start off on the left side with the plushies and it looks like pretty soon we're gonna be getting a 10 inch plushie of Nightmare Freddy and also Nightmare Bonnie, a 16 inch fanverse plushie of Candy the Cat, apparently the Blackheart Bonnie skin from FNAF era special delivery will be getting their own plushie and then we move on to the main characters of today's video the balloon in Circus and Matronics. Balloon Freddy, balloon Bonnie, balloon Chica, balloon Foxy as well as their Circus Varian, Circus Freddy, Circus Bonnie, Circus Chica and Circus Foxy from Security Breach will be getting their own plushies. Now you may be thinking hmm that's weird I don't remember those characters in Security Breach but keep that in mind and let's continue on with the list. Some characters you should remember from Security Breach however are the Sun and Moon variants of the Daycare Attendant and it looks like finally Funko's gonna be giving them some love because it seems like we've got plushies of them coming very soon. That's all the plushies now let's move on to some action figures looks like we got a 13 and a half inch tall Freddy and Bonnie figures coming down the line once again Blackheart Bonnie making an appearance so along with his brand new plushie he will also apparently be getting an action figure and then back to these weird variants of Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy clown Freddy, clown Bonnie, clown Chica, clown Foxy and then also Freddy with balloon so once again keep those characters in mind clown Freddy, Circus Freddy, balloon Freddy keep all three of those in mind as well as Freddy with a balloon then you've also got balloon Foxy getting a figure and finally the Sun and Moon versions of the Daycare Attendant getting figures so just like Blackheart Bonnie it looks like both Sun and Moon will be getting plushies and action figures so finally Daycare Attendant fans you're in luck. Next up we move on to Funko Snaps which is actually a new line of products Funko launched earlier this year brand new characters coming to the merchandise line or Nightmare Bonnie, Nightmare Chica and Toy Chica two packs the security room play set as well as Phantom Foxy from FNAF 3 so that's very exciting me personally I'm a huge fan of the snap line so honestly I'm super excited to see these brand new characters and the line continue and now we move on to other miscellaneous merchandise we can get from Funko based on FNAF one of those products being a Foxy soda and if you're not well aware of Funko soda line it's just a little figurine inside of a soda can so unfortunately no actual Foxy themed drink like the Pirate Cove cooler or whatever it's called and help wanted something else that's very exciting though is a second wave of security breach themed mystery minis you may remember the first line of security breach mystery minis from Funko was kind of underwhelming because it was just the five glam rock animatronics or sorry the four glam rock animatronics and then also Vanny and they just had a butt ton of recolors so hopefully with this second wave we can see a more diverse cast like burn trap the blob the teeny music man's the DJ music man Vanessa uh you know Gregory the staff bots wow they have a lot of characters to catch up on oh and pat pat too definitely can't forget about pat pat so in my initial recording I completely forgot to mention the brand new security breach Funko skate decks and I think that's just because well I think it's pretty obvious what they're going to be they're just gonna be small skate decks with you know the FNAF Funko characters on them nothing all that exciting but I feel bad for skipping it so there you go so that is all of the leaked upcoming FNAF products being produced by Funko something I regret doing was not actually naming off if any of the products are going to be exclusive or common I apologize but all the texts in light blue are going to be exclusive to some store like GameStop or Walmart or Hot Topic and then all the texts in white are going to be commons products you can find in any store or online anywhere but now let's go back to those characters I told you to keep in the back of your head while we went down the list and those characters were the balloon clown and circus versions of Freddy body Chica Foxy as well as Freddy with a balloon because you may notice that they're listed under the security breach tag meaning they're somehow affiliated with security breach and I think we all know we did not see a clown balloon or circus versions of Freddy Bonnie Chica Foxy in fact we didn't even get a full glimpse of Bonnie and Foxy in security breach at all so what's going on with those characters and in fact it turns out this isn't the only time we've seen a balloon Freddy or a Freddy with a balloon themed with security breach because also revealed last month was a brand new shirt by Hot Topic which features a whole bunch of versions of Freddy Fazbear including Glamrock Freddy and also you may notice in the top right a version of Freddy Fazbear not only dressed as balloon boy but also holding a balloon balloon Freddy Freddy with a balloon hmm I think we're starting to get somewhere but who is this character because clearly if they're getting merchandise from Funko and also a Hot Topic shirt they have some importance and they're closely affiliated with security breach despite not actually appearing in the main game I think it could be pretty likely this is our first glimpse at a brand new set of characters coming in the upcoming Bruin DLC the only issue with this is that like I said Bonnie and Foxy were not in security breach and it's also just weird to have these random clown circus balloon whatever versions of Freddy Bonnie Chica Foxy in the Bruin DLC but at the same time it feels like that's our only explanation it's 100% guaranteed they're themed with security breach because all the times they've been leaked they're always always affiliated with the tag security breach and normally I'd write it off as just another weird Funko recolor but again the fact that they showed up on a officially licensed Hot Topic shirt it feels like there's more going on here than we may realize but honestly I'd love to know your thoughts on the brand new set of characters in the comments down below and also what new product are you looking forward to most I should also mention that Tony revealed that most of the circus stuff has an estimated time of release of quarter one 2023 he says that he'd imagine the other stuff is going to be about the same release but he can't verify for certain that's an in-depth look at all the brand new Funko products we're going to get for FNAF once again love to know your thoughts on all the brand new products including those potentially leaked DLC characters but thank you so much for watching this video and I'll see you all on the flip side goodbye
