Hello and welcome to NewsClick. Today I'm going to talk about the developing story in South Africa where President Jacob Zuma has been asked to resign by African National Congress. To discuss about this and the future of African National Congress, we have a senior journalist from South Africa, Monika. Welcome Monika. Arun, how are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm well, thank you. So Monika, let's start with the recent something, the developing story with just coming out from South Africa that the influential Gupta family, which is one of the reasons, one of the reasons why Jacob Zuma is in the soup, in the corruption soup. So there had been news that the South African police has raided the Gupta family. Can you say something more about this? Sure. So the Gupta family, I'm not sure if you'll listen, if your readers know much about them, but they're a very influential family in South Africa. They started off quite small in around 2000, the early 2000s with a computer company called Sahara, not of the same Sahara company that's well known in India, of course. There was very little to be known about them in the beginning. They were very low key. And then a few years ago, it was around 2011, I could be mistaken on the date, there was a major story of one of the journalists here in South Africa broke of them using a water cliff air base, which is a military air base to fly in the guest for a wedding that was being held at Sun City. That obviously was where it all began. That opened the can of worms and journalists began probing and investigating the family. It was later discovered that they had infiltrated into all of our state entities, which has now been called state capture. This is later a massive investigation by a public protector, which uncovered that they had major influence on the president, Jacob Zuma, who they wanted to appoint ministers in the cabinet, which included the finance minister. So they wanted to capture treasury. They wanted the minister of enterprise so they could capture ESCEM, which is the state-owned utility provider in South Africa. Also SAA, which is our national carrier, and they were trying to offer, wanted to offer around, I think it was 600 million rent, bribe, not to show what that is in rubies, but they were offering a bribe to one of the ministers because they wanted to cancel the route to India. So they wanted to take control of that as well. So there's many things that they had many fingers in, including mining. They also had, they roped in the president's son, Dujizani Zuma, to be part of that, and other senior ministers and heads of, we call them premiers, because there are different provinces in South Africa. So the head of the province is called the premier. So there was also indication of that as well. So it's been going on for months, and forth was out, there was numerous stories written about them. The latest story, which was last year, the biggest story to come out of them, was when a whole treasure trove of email was leaked to the media. This was thousands, like more than 200,000 emails between the guptas and the senior politicians. Basically, it was a paper trail unraveling the network, and the influence the family had in South Africa. So finally, after many years and the hawks, which is South Africa's elite policing unit, which is similar to the, I would compare them to the FBI and the United States, finally conducted a raid this morning at the compound in Saxon world. A couple of days after the ANC has arsed resignation from Jacob Zuma. Exactly. So the timing is insanely coincidental, if you believe in coincidences. And there are reports as well of there being three arrests, which include a businessman, they say businessman, but reports indicate that it's probably one of the brothers, is probably Athul Gupta. That's been, that's been, that's taken in for questioning. At the same time, while this was happening this morning, the ANC caucus was meeting to discuss President Jacob Zuma's future. As you know, President Zuma has been asked to step down and today he's been given a deadline to resign. If not, the ANC will pass a motion of no confidence in parliament tomorrow. That means he will be impeached or? Well, it's, it's, it's similar to being impeached, but not directly. So you're being recalled. So if you recall, the same thing happened with the president before him, Tabo Mbeke. He was recalled. He was recalled by the party and Tabo Mbeke accepted the record and he stepped on. However, President Zuma, he seemingly refused to resign, which means that no one has to go to parliament and parliament has to make a vote. This is, will be the ninth motion of no confidence that parliament is bringing. He survived eight so far. The opposition party, the EFF had originally brought but now they've decided to sort of step aside and let the ANC do it themselves. So what's going to happen is that they're probably going to, if he does resign today, then the new ANC president, which is Saral Ramaphosa, will then step in as acting president and will have to be voted and sworn in parliament by either tomorrow, but the ANC says they're hoping to push latest by Friday at least. South Africans should wake up to a new president. So maybe the morning news that South Africa will have a new interim president. Is that a possibility? At this stage, anything is possible. I mean, we have no idea. It just, you know, the story is changing from minute to minute to minute. I mean, a lot of people are relying on sources, so a lot of information is coming from sources from within the party who are sitting at this caucus on what's being planned and the scenes behind closed doors in terms of Zuma's refusal to go. And just because of this meeting now, the caucus on the decision made by the ANC, the ran has already improved against the dollar, and it's been better than it has been in two years. It's broken the 12 grandmark, which is unbelievable, which has been unbelievable. So it already shows the impact it's going to have an economy. Just in fact, you learn that the ANC is making this decision. So that means there are very few choices left with Zuma now. He has no choice. His choice is, he has no choice. He, if he doesn't want to resign and bow out like Pertabu and Beki had done at the first time, then all signs indicate that the party is going to, his own party is going to vote him out, which they haven't done before. I mean, he survived nine times. He's basically a cat of nine lives. It's unbelievable. So it's nine lives are actually over. There's no more. The ninth one has been called and he's not going to survive this, which is unbelievable. This has never happened in the history of South Africa's democratic government, which obviously, since 1994, since Nelson Mandela became president. And there's been lots of debate over the ANC survival of the ruling party in South Africa. And as you know, the ANC is a struggle party and a liberation movement. And a lot of credibility has been lost by the party since Zuma has been at the helm of it.   He stood trial for that, which she was acquitted. And then there was the corruption charges, which he also escaped. And then also, I mean, the debate was, and he also started appointing people at the head of that, at the head of the judiciary, at the head of the police, at the head of intelligence, basically to do his bidding. All of those people are now being removed. And he's faced one constitutional court challenge after the other. And he's in the last couple of months, he's beginning to slowly, he's slowly beginning to lose power. So, Munika, if Zuma resigns, so most probably it will be Ramaphosa, who will be becoming the president. So what are the prospects for ANC, if Ramaphosa becomes the president, considering that there had been allegations earlier against Ramaphosa, also the incident of killing of 34 mind workers? Yep. So how do you look in this? Well, Ramaphosa is an interesting, I mean, he left, he left the party a couple of years ago, and then he went into business and he went and he made money, and then he came back. Not so long ago, probably about four or five years ago, I'm not just comparing with the deadline. But Ramaphosa economically and for business has a good profile. For the economics of the country, it's good. But in terms of the working class and in terms of the rest of the other sort of voting public, he's not very popular. And it's because of the Marikana incident, which he has apologized for. But I don't know if he can come back on that. He might survive this now because parliament is voting him in. But it will be interesting to see and the ANC will have to work very hard to regain the confidence, would have to regain the support that it's had for the 20 and ahead of the 2019 elections. And I think this is a space now for the opposition parties to do a lot of politics. Well, last question, Monika, is about the Gupta family. So as Zuma falls, what will be the future for Gupta family? That is what everybody wants to know. The Gupta family have, nobody knows how much money they have in this country, but it's probably billions that they've invested. I mean, they've sold their TV station to a former ANC, Jimmy Mani, I mean, a lucrative price, but they had lost their deal now on the satellite network. So they can't run it. So there's probably people who have jobs. They've got a newspaper, which probably wasn't making any money. So they've been pulling people there. So I think the future, they probably will, and they are some African citizens, by the way, they'd be naturalized. So they're proud for that. So I would assume that they would go to trial and people would want them to go to jail.  Probably it's going to be a mammoth investigation, probably taking years into uncovering how much money they've laundered. I mean, there's allegedly, I should say, how much money has allegedly been laundered out of the country. I mean, there's a whole connection between them and Dubai and money being filtered through the network being set up there as well. So unless the Guptas have really good lawyers to get out of it, I'm hoping and I think like the rest of the country, we're hoping that this is probably going to finally end and we can finally see some justice. Thank you, Monica, for speaking to NewsClick and we'll follow as the story develops. Thank you for watching NewsClick and please log on to our website, www.newsclick.com. Thank you.


I'll go back to it. The amount needed to trade futures is $400 is the minimum for Ninja Trader. The recommended absolute minimum is $2,500. This is if you are self-funded, meaning you're going to fund your own account. And if you're asking, well, what's the ideal minimum, then I would say $8,000. I hope you're taking notes right now if not roll back the tape. If you want to smash the markets and you are somebody who is, if you have the funds to do so, what is the absolute ideal $25,000 is the ideal for a personal account? The $25,000 is the same PDT rule that you would apply to stocks. But if you were to take that same $25,000 from the PDT rule where you're at a disadvantage trading stocks, if you took that $25,000 and brought it to a futures trading account with the leverage that we have being able to trade up to 50 contracts, that will allow you to trade up to 50 contracts. Again, my max that I'm comfortable trading is 40 contracts. I try to stay there at the 40 mark. However, I know that I could do 10 more. There is a limit on futures for personal accounts. If you're not registered with the CME, then you have a 50 contract limit for NASDAQ, Russell and the Dow. You have 100 contract limit on the ES. There are limits you can check with your broker. But in general, those are the limits.


Wrong you're wrong about the draft Raven sign Wagner and draft sauce at 14 if sauce is gone Then the Ravens will trade out of the 14th pick. There is no Wide receiver pick if they are not solid with the offensive line and free agency The Ravens are all about the offensive line and the defense to deal with walk-ins and burrow. That's a lock Well first before you're gonna come to me and try to correct me in question from subscribers Who is walk-ins? There is no quarterback in the AFC north whose last name is walk-ins So it's actually you that's wrong my friend and don't forget about mr. Biscay, but first let me just back up a little earlier in your Question slash comment You said that there is no wide receiver pick if they are not solid with the offensive line and free agency And you mentioned pick number 14, and you said if it's not sauce then the Ravens will trade out of the 14th pick is The 14th pick because it sounds like you just talking about the first round I said that the Ravens are drafting a wide receiver in the first one two three rounds Not just the first So before you come try to correct me make sure you have all your facts in line my friend now Without further ado, let's get into this episode of NFL question from soaps You two team keep it clean welcome to another episode of questions from subs a series where you can ask me any NFL Question you want to and we answered in a video just like this if you want to be part of it You can send me an email to team keep it clean at gmail.com or for the patrons You can send it directly on patreon if you want to become a team keep it clean patron You can go to patreon.com slash engraving vids and if you don't want to become a team keep it clean patron You can stay exactly where you are. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all We got some great questions like every single time cuz y'all don't ever fail. Let's get it Speaking of wide receivers First question was the next question second question came from my boy step fine. He said what's up, brother? Hey, what's going on, man? He said hopefully the fam is doing well. Oh, they're doing great. They're doing great But anyway, do you think we will go after AJ green? Let me know your thoughts No, I don't think the Ravens will go after AJ green at all. I don't envision any scenario Where they go after AJ green? Um Yeah, I just don't I Think I think they would actually they will go for Julio before they went for for AJ green AJ green would I man I'm almost expecting a retirement announcement any day now from AJ green Just to be straight up He's obviously been a Ravens killer where he had been for a long time But then injuries just start catching up and then they just it looked like his heart just wasn't all right Y'all remember the game that bingles game where AJ green was just there and I think it was like an overthone pass or something He just watched it Then I think Marcus Peters picked it off somebody picked it off and then he was just he was not into it at all But then he did look better with the Cardinals was a fresh start and whatnot with the Cardinals, but Yeah, I don't think the Ravens son AJ green at all next question came from a boy Joey He said a engraving so it seems a lot of Ravens fans still won offensive coordinator G row out and have been asking for him to be out But hey big but coming up here. I remember in the Joe Flacco years almost every year We had a new offensive coordinator Do you think the Ravens saw that that was not a good thing and are now trying to right their wrongs? I'm sure it was rough for Flacco to have to work with a different offensive coordinator every year And they noticed it and they don't want that full of more Jackson. I Think it's actually a bit deeper than that my friend reason being because Raven a lot of Ravens fans have complained about Greg Roman for a while now to spin a thing, you know how it goes But a lot of Ravens fans also complained about Mark Tressman a lot of Ravens fans also complained about Marty Morningwag a lot of Ravens fans complained about Jim Caldwell Cam Cameron and the list goes on But there has been one Common denominator if you don't know what that common denominator is I'll let you figure it out take some time to think about it but the Offensive coordinator complaints They are they probably gonna continue with whoever's offensive coordinator next so just something to think about but anyway He said thanks for your videos, bro. A lot of times. I don't even check the Ravens app or ESPN app for Ravens news anymore I just go to YouTube and click on your channel for news. Keep it up. Hey Appreciate that Joey. Thank you man. Next questions came from a boy BB He said what are the Ravens going to do if JK and Gus aren't ready to Raven take a different approach this off-season and solidify a top shelf running back like a Dalvin cook That would be nice, but no No With I think the biggest thing with Ravens at running back If like you stay ready so you ain't got to get ready, of course You just want somebody that's gonna be and have been familiar with your system Just in case those guys aren't fully ready to go now I do anticipate both of them being ready, but still you got to stay ready. So you ain't got to get ready, right? So you got Devontae Freeman. You could bring him back. You got Tyson Williams. You could actually use him for once So you have some options then of course you could draft a guy late You could sign an undrafted free agent running back So you you're gonna have your options. You're certainly gonna have your options But as far as I'm getting a high price running back like a Dalvin cook, I don't see that That'd be nice. It'd be a nice little luxury, but I just don't see that happen the same way I would not see them trading for a sequan buckly. It just It's not something that they they would do Because they have so many other options and so many other cheaper options, you know Ravens the fiscal Ravens They don't play about that money. Anyway, he said I'm worried because this run heavy style won't work with a Nate McCrary a Tyson Williams a Devontae Freeman or any of what we saw last season Thanks for the positive every day updates. Hashtag team keeping clean. Appreciate that. Um, oh, so he mentioned he mentioned two of the running backs that I mentioned But yeah, I know I just I really do think that um They they just need to have guys there that are familiar with the system early on So if something does happen if JK August are just the same ready if somebody just not ready to full go then you'll have somebody else who's familiar and they can step in and Hopefully end up showing up and showing out He also said you said something a couple days ago about Moses being the best free agent signing on this offensive line Well, he was the the only free agent on the offensive line so that's That's it. There's nothing to compare him to He said bro, I hope you are wrong all in has to be the mindset for the offense Lamar sees the patterns and if Ravens don't change this cultural mediocrity Lamar will leave I wouldn't blame him if he did hashtag Evolve Well, that's why I think Lamar ain't signed yet. Yeah, you already know my opinion on that I don't think he signed in this offseason I think he just really wants to see a change in the Ravens a change to their ways of change to their habits and a change To their approach Before he moves forward. So we'll see how that ends up next question came from a boy Aaron Z He said, what's up, big fan of the veers keep up the good work. Hey, appreciate your airing as you know as of today Lamar still has not signed the extension. I know he still has time to sign it But do you think we will work out a deal with Lamar before the season starts? Oh timing is everything We just talked about that in the previous question, but no I don't know and do you think the Ravens are going to Off him Allen Watson like type deals appreciated and hope you have a great day now those two deals They are very different from each other because Josh Allen. He got a lot of guaranteed money, but it ain't fully guaranteed the Sean Watson He got it all. It's all guaranteed to be paid to him. No matter what and the Browns they thought they were slick They thought they were slick because the Browns the way that they structured his contract this year with his um With his salary being one million dollars. Oh, they owe it was slick Football's a nasty business though. They structured it so if he does get suspended safe instance worst-case scenario He even got it suspended for the whole year and his salary boom He will lose that salary But he would only lose a million dollars.  They slick slick Who they they slick they slick um, but anyway, he uh So, yeah, Lamar's looking at those deals like he Lamar pastor Josh Allen deal. That's old news That that's all I'm worried about that. No, no, he is looking at the Sean Watson and looking at that like oh Oh, that's where that's where the floor is now. Okay. Yeah, I'm with it next question came from my guy Alex He said hey, how's it going my guy? Thanks for all the coverage and consistent updates you do for all Ravens No, I appreciate y'all even watching them. I said it really helps to keep some of us in the loop with what's going on with the teams Myself included my question or questions for you today is about Tyus Bowser I have been a big fan of this guy and in his corner since we drafted him from him going from almost being a potential draft bust To now an important part of our teams defense I'm still one of his biggest fans a lot of people don't know who he is and even Ravens fans don't understand Why I bought his jersey, but it's because I really like the guy as a player And he seems to be an overall cool dude when you hear him talking in interviews But regardless of any of that or how much I like him part of me feels like he may never Live up to his full potential and my expectations of him would be pro bowl caliber He's a good player for our defense, but do you think he has potential to ever be a pro bowler in this league? I think so now if If you would have said he may not ever live up to his full potential under the previous scheme Okay, I could see how you could say that but now we have an opportunity to see him Under Mike McDonald's scheme and when Mike McDonald apparently he really uses his past rushes as past rushes and lets them go hunt So let's see when when Tyus Bowser does get healthy If Mike McDonald really lets him go hunt He said if not do you think at some point maybe in the last year of his contract He could become good a good trade bait for another team that needs a linebacker What do you think the future holds for tie it Tyus Bowser in Baltimore? That's um That's that's a good question and um, I think it's to be determined because yeah Tyus Bowser it He started off like just he wasn't really active like that. It wasn't out there much Then when he got out there, I remember he got like an interception against the Browns. I think or was it Pittsburgh? I forgot which one of those teams it was and it was like, oh that old Tyus Bowser. Okay, he's showing up now Um, because it was rumors that he just wasn't getting a playbook early on. He just didn't get it It wasn't clicking for him but now He and then even last season like last season for him and started off a little bit slow Then it got better and better and better and then he started improving as the season went along but then Uh, just that's that's so annoying For how he went out because it's like the last game of the season On on top on top of all of that the Ravens lost and he lost Probably the beginning of next season because he got injured Um, so it was like man and then on top of that even if Ravens were the one They still would end up losing because they wouldn't have made the playoffs Uh, so it it was just a tough break for him. I felt so bad for him So that's like that sets him back going into next season but I think um I think it's it's tough to say now the injury just messed a lot of stuff up Because he had really good momentum uh going in to uh going into this upcoming season But now that momentum is kind of like It's it's just shot it shot a little bit It all just depends on his bounce back game really that's the biggest thing for him to his bounce back game Um, but I don't know if he's gonna be ready in time for the beginning of the season Then uh, when he does finally come back how active will he be? Um, will somebody establish themselves as that same linebacker as they're like, all right I'm holding it down tie his bowels. I'm holding it down. Will there be somebody who's like, all right I'm holding it down till you get back or will it be somebody where it's like, all right I'm holding it down and this is my spot now That that could change a lot with what happens. So it's it's still like super up in the air uh, he also said um I'm really curious what you uh, what you think about this guy because nobody really mentions him very much And I know they I know they are two different types of linebackers in different positions But I'm wondering how much in addition of a bobby wagner would help the progression of a tyus bowser um, so with that part, uh bobby wagner would I think he could allow the ravens to just really have um a solid Well, not even solid really good inside linebacker to where they don't have to move guys around as much Like having a bobby wagon will allow other guys to really play their positions Like, uh, I think there was some time last year if it wasn't last year Then it was the year before last what they had a tyus bowser play a little bit of inside linebacker But if they had bobby wagner there then it could be bobby wagon and patrick queen and tyus bowser He could stay at outside linebacker. So I think bobby would just allow them to just Have guys play their roles and just keep their roles and I have to do all this and all that and didn't start Get the overthinking and all that stuff. So bobby wagon would make everybody's job Easier and the last question on this episode came from my boy, Justin He said hello, my brother had work watching videos once again. I do office work. So it doesn't mess me up listening Oh, okay You sure now because I know I told y'all for me If i'm working on something if i'm writing something even typing something I cannot listen to something and type at the same time because I will start typing What i'm either thinking or what i'm listening to and that just it's a bad situation for me Anyway, he said I was thinking man. Why has lemar stopped running as much? Well, just to start off from that. I I think he was hurt for a majority of last year Even before the whole ankle injury of bone bruise, whatever it was I think he was hurt before that because he looked slower He looked significantly slower. He was not as quick as he once was He was off and you could see it. He was off Um and I think another reason too Why he may not run as much because I think with a lot of times with with lemar with the ravens They let that outside noise that they hear they let it creep in They they've been doing it since 2018 since lemar's rook they let it creep in and you can tell by their play calls by his play style They by different things that he would do different things that they would they let it creep in And with that they let it affect the way that they do things So I think that was a big part of it too Well, as far as last year, I think a lot of it was prove it ball Like let me prove to these people that I can throw let me show the world Then and this happened last year too in 2020 It happened last season too where We would be watching They'd be like, oh lemar. Oh, there's a lane right there. Lamar take off take off take off He would be sitting there holding the ball holding holding holding and he would throw it So I think a lot of it is prove it ball. Um, but he was also hurt Anyway, he said I swear he has so many open holes like back in the MVP season But I think in the back of his head, he's thinking about the haters saying he cannot throw This is why I gotta I gotta finish reading before I start talking because a lot of times we we be on the same page That's that's why I love y'all so much. But anyway, he said, do you think this has had an impact on him trying to prove Trying to prove them wrong See we were just talking about prove it ball This is sometimes like Sometimes it's crazy like how this happens, man Sometimes it's really crazy, but that's how I know that again a lot of us be on the same page It's crazy how much this happens where we'll be reading the question and we read the first part of it Then we start answering it. Then y'all will say the same thing in the next part of the question So anyway, he said we know he can throw and he knows he can throw But the run game has gotten weaker this year Maybe from from a lack of an offensive line or even the fact that v and waver was even on the team Who would a pettiness creep through? Um, I really don't like him as you can tell Uh, do you think this is going to change this season? I know he's scared of injuries But he is a signature scrambling quarterback. I don't think Lamar's scared of injuries I don't think Lamar really worried about injuries.  I remember um His was his rookie year what we had rg3 I think it was his rookie year But yeah, cuz rg3. Yeah, yeah, yeah, cuz it was yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was rg there was flakko rg3 and lamar um The game against the chiefs His rookie year, um, he it was in overtime. I think yeah in overtime He had like some little super minor injury and that was the first one is supermine only took him out a couple plays But those were the like the game tying a game winning drives On rg3 was in there and that and so rg3 had to step in at the very end of the game He threw the willy steed on the fourth down should have been past interference, but it is what it is um And that just did that ended that game. But my point in saying that I'm over here going down memory lane My point in saying all that was that that was lamar that he had got hurt, but it was again super quick And there have been other times when lamar he's came out of a game for like a little bit Then he went right back in Um, so this bone bruise was the first significant injury that really kept him out Um, that's why I was so scared like with the ravers that they were gonna force him out there I remember that one practice y'all remember seeing the videos of him at that one practice where he was like Limping and stuff and how I was like no, please ravens do not do this Don't do it. Please don't rush him back and I'm so glad that they didn't Um, but I don't think he's worried about injuries Long story short. Anyway, he said also, please tell me how to become a patron for team keeping clean I would love to do these videos like you do all I do is research the ravens keep it easy My brother I'll be in touch appreciate it. Oh, he said sorry for the book Trust me that that was not no book We we have gotten a lot of books over the years, which I ain't got no problem with But trust me this was not even close to being a book a team keeping clean I love y'all as far as being a patron. We say that at the beginning of every question from subscriber video You go to patreon.com slash engraving vids. That's it. That's it Um, but I love y'all. I appreciate y'all so much. Thank you for watching this episode of question from subscribers


While the electrical grids are being constantly monitored, so too are the rivers. Sean Boyd is in the Sierras where after an unusually wet winter, combined with extreme heat, snow melt is running off the mountains and causing dangerous conditions. Absolutely. Look at this raging river. When's the last time you saw the American River looking like that? Well, that's all because of all that snow that was up in the higher elevations. It's melting and now rivers around California are flowing faster and harder and colder than they ever have and that is creating a danger for you and your family if you let your guard down. These are images taken by Southlake Tahoe Fire and Rescue after pulling the body of a woman from the upper Truckee River. She was paddle boarding when she got hung up on this fallen tree and drowned. Record snowfall in the mountains is melting and that's attracting people to rivers all over California but conditions are much different this year. Much higher water, two to three times more water coming down the river. Paramedic Brian Pierce warns recreationalists to beware of unusual conditions and increased risk. There's more trees down from the river. There's more hidden objects. The water is moving faster so you have less response time and it's cold. Yeah, it's cold. The cold water can shock the body, cramping or stiffening muscles and making it more difficult to breathe. The U.S. Forest Service has cleaned most of the debris piles in parts of the Truckee River that flow through the National Forest but it's what's under the water that can be dangerous. I can't tell you how many horror stories have happened out here. Steve Lenoy ran a kayak shop for 27 years in the Lake Tahoe Basin. He says tragedy can also strike when people panic under stress like when the woman paddle boarders leash caught that tree. By the way, he advises never wear a leash when paddle boarding on a river. Good thing this young lady wasn't wearing hers. We watched her get tossed from her paddle board into the Truckee at the very same spot where the woman had drowned just days before. Let the board go. No life jacket either, but she escaped with her life. And of course, always remember to wear your life jacket. It could mean the difference between life and death. Also, remember that the water is faster, is stronger, and it is much colder. And also, right beneath the surface, a lot of debris that could cause a lot of problems for you. Here now with some potentially life-saving tips is Heather Noelle with the U.S. Forest Service. Heather? I've got tips for you. Wear your personal flotation device.

Man it has been a while Yo, what's going on leaf nation sleeper back again and before we get into the first episode of Monopoly Hut Yes, it's back. I want to wish you all a merry Christmas if I get this episode out on time It should be Christmas Day, so a happy holidays happy Hanukkah happy or merry Christmas I hope you got what you wanted for Christmas. Let me know in the comment section below what you guys got But nevertheless, it is time to head into the first episode of Monopoly Hut It is back for NHL 21. Okay, so looking at the board. It's pretty much similar to last year added a couple Changes how rush is obviously news and you game mode added this year We have the chance in the community chess where you guys last year put suggestions Whenever I land on chance, I have to do a challenge and community chess is kind of like I think community chess is a challenge chances chances that packs or stuff like that Again, if you guys have any new challenges, leave them in the comment section below I can add them to the envelopes that I have for them boards pretty much the same We roll a dice before each game. Whatever we land on we have to do So we have you know some special packs and regular packs by any players roll again We have discard best player, which we don't actually discarded We were moving from the squad and then as you can see on the right side of the board There's the second chance Second chance is any best player that you discarded you're able to bring them back to life and back onto your hut team Pretty self-explanatory. So Yeah, let's just get right into it. Well, we made our team already We have seven and open packs from royalty and I did the hut challenges or the tip sets whatever they're called So without further ado, we're gonna open them Hopefully add to our team and then we do have more packs to open I got a low points onto the account and then we got a roll for the first time So I'm not sure if I'm gonna show all these packs if I pull something good That's worth putting on to the team then I'll let you guys know mini pack I dealt there's gonna be anything in it again. These packs are pretty garbo, but honestly Any gold player at this point is really good for us because our team is a dog meat nothing other than first loyalty pack I don't remember these loyalty packs being good at all if I'm gonna be very honest with you guys When I opened them at the start of the year my main account So I don't know man like I'm not expecting anything from these I guess we could just skip these 750 coins that's not bad. So we're gonna add to our coin total not bad. We haven't pulled the gold player yet though, which is Something else, you know what boys? I think we're just gonna skip them I know it kind of defeats the purpose like we're not gonna see if we pull anything good But I doubt we pull anything good. Well, there's at least retro jersey. We did ask for that Let's make that our active jersey real quick. We pulled an alumni He will definitely get put to the team as our first gold card technically and Another 750 coins so the coin total is already going up, which could be dangerous because we already have a spot on the board It's a second spot if you roll it to we're already going banker up. So Definitely not what we want to see here next pack here Nothing just for fast. That's not bad at all as a gold player to add to the team That's about it last let's reward pack and I think that players pack is somewhat decent. I'm not a hundred percent sure We pull 83 Nicholas Baxter, but not bad at all passing playmaker He's obviously gonna get thrown on to the team. That is a huge upgrade to start off with the series We have a sick Calgary him and Jersey and 10,000 coins and another gold player, but 10,000 coins in a royalty pack Again, I'm a little nervous if we do roll a two. That's all our coins gone But 10k coins man. We're starting off the series with a bang Don't mind if I do we're gonna be a 13k. So, uh, yeah, add the coins to the total there 13k We got our players pack here 10 items all players at least five gold players and 180 plus overall So I think the greatest pack. We're not gonna skip this though. So let's see what we can get from here Okay, Timo Meyer not too bad. That's our 180 plus player. I guess so we will definitely take a Timo Meyer Anything else to help out the team? I guess this guy will get thrown on to the team Can we pull another gold tinted player? That'd be pretty nice Two gold players there and that's about it So with that being said it's time to roll a dice for the first time I'm gonna be recording on my phone So we have a dice here better than a random dice generator and we're only using one die this time So first roll of the episode and we get a for so a four is open up one special pack So it's time to load the points on to the account. All right So we load it up the points into the account. We have five special packs in the store So I'm gonna use a random number generator one to five. We have some good packs out here. Let's generate a number And we get a one so a one is an untradable week to International winter national starter pack We get 12 items including a gold collectible and a guaranteed week to international players, so I Do want to see something here What winter national players do we have a chance at getting? so Where are we here? So we we have a chance to getting 90 over 89 price 87 Miller 86 Char We're obviously gonna get one of the low-end ones. I would assume We have some other good stuff in packs as well, but hey guys Big first pack to start off the series. We rolled a one the one starting from here 2200 points down the drain of which player are we going to pull that is the question here? So here we go Chrome, okay Come on that. Oh, we would be huge to start off the series here Bruins alumni jersey. Oh My goodness, dude the anticipation for this card. There's our gold collectible We get the Christmas jersey. That's pretty dope. Come on Dude, they're really gonna leave it to the last two cards. Oh Okay, you know what that's not bad. I saw the purple tin. I'm like, there's no way We got one of the higher are the higher ones Dennis Griganov He's got barrier our garage and gladiator good looking card even without the synergies That is a w big start to our hut team We pull the purple in our first roll obviously higher chances, but Dennis Griganov We are gonna throw him onto the team and then hop into our first division rivaled games and just like that We have no more silvers on offense if I saw that correctly here Dennis Griganov Playing of the right side as a lefty. That's what we like to see. He's obviously going on the first line So definitely a big pick up to start off the series here Obviously, I'm gonna edit all my power play lines and stuff like that, but regardless. We were heading into the first game now Let's get it boys. All right, so before we head into our first game. We don't have like the lamp anymore I am very worried about my gold-tending situation if I'm going to be completely honest with you We'll see how this goes. Oh, it's going to be interesting also I played my five placement games. I just backed out of all of them so we can get that out of the way We're in div nine so we should be playing two good at people. So hopefully Hopefully we should be okay. All right boys first game Monopoly hut NHL 21 Hopefully we can start off with a bang get a win obviously wins aren't a big thing We just want to get some good div rivals to get some more packs, but We obviously want to start off on a win like no one likes losing games obviously So let's get this dub. All right, this guy's got Panera and Crosby. He's got a good team This is gonna be interesting. I don't know if this kid's div nine or not, but we'll see how this goes here That's a penalty cannot do that So we're gonna get some power play minutes here Get that across carry on off the extra attacker his first shot right at the gold tenor But here we are boys first power play we need to convert up the the little stop up Get that across big gold Smith. I don't know who you are. I don't think one nothing big power play goal That's what we like to see CJ Smith. Sure. Let's go carry on off. They're changing So we might be in the middle of something here carry on. I'll just take a shot man Not the greatest.  We're gonna sweat that across make that three nothing just for fast We will take that.  We shot a right of Athaloski's pattern is still went in my goodness It's gary on off and gary on off gets a second first point for will nye the hockey guy Six nothing now. I think maybe seven. I don't know here we go get that across bang napier Seven nothing three point seven ago. We will take it. I'm gonna stop showing goals now though And I'll see you guys at the end of the game. Okay that that okay All right, just like that we get a dub in our first ever div rivals game. I know again div nine It's gonna be somewhat easy. We are now silver rank within with one game, which is amazing We're getting our skill reading up so we can jump some divisions 25 hot champs points Which I don't know if we're ever gonna play hot champs because I don't know if I want to go through that stress Anyways, we completed some objectives and looking at the stats man. I had nine shots He had zero I had four 26th time on attack to his 29 seconds. So it's not like it was undeserved All right boys like we couldn't ask for a better start. It's time to go back to the board and roll the dice One more time. So we got a four last time. I don't know what we're looking for here. There's some good packs We got hot rush. I'm not too sure.  So I guess we'll go do that again anything at this point would be a w Um, but like any gold play would be a w But let's see if we get out of this one 150 points Obviously not gonna be as good as the last one at least I don't think so Let's see what we get here. Hopefully something upgrade the team I don't think these guys would make the team. We could definitely see if there's a spot for them But not a hundred percent sure carl haigland should make the team very fast Skater there. So that would definitely be good a couple good gold players that could definitely get put to the team And just like that that alumni is off the team carl haigland welcome We do need a speedy winger. You know, I think I don't know for that was just a one-off game where we played Not the greatest kids so we'll see where that goes Obviously he's gonna be playing above carl clifford, even though clifford had a great game great game all around looking at the First line stats your knee lander had an assist Six games played. I oh, yeah, because we did do the five. So he has an assist Backstrom did not do anything But it was a plus two Gary onoff had a game the game of his life close to a hot trick two goals Definitely a great start Let's head into game number two. All right game number two. We are wearing the retro jerseys. I'm excited to use this We are playing a qc Montreal fan here I'm assuming he's gonna be better than the last kid But let's see All right, Brock Besser connor mcdavid. We're playing some good teams here boys. So it's gonna get interesting Drop to knee lander. Can we get that across gary onoff? What a save, dude Knee lander gary onoff just have the camera ready and gary onoff goal streak of two games Knee lander gets a pass across that's his second assist with the team great start from the boys That's what we like to see Bucket just bouncing all over the place right now. That's a trip. That's sir. You cannot do Justin hall Is a beast apparently we're gonna force it haiglin. What a save by carrie price We were so close to going up to nothing, but we do have a power play here So let's try to convert on this one We forced that gary onoff man close to getting a second there good block by him We're gonna get that across again gary onoff did a fade away. I love those fadeaways Power play is over. No no conversion on the power play there. So that hurts us a little bit Play to the point I don't know how this isn't a go a little tip there that almost went through carrie price, man We're getting our good chances. We are dominating though.  I don't know. We're already scored. I don't know what his name is Good luck from justin hall to nothing. Let's go boys. He ties up. No, okay gg Oh, that went through me first shot our go our goaltender is seeing all episode and it goes in Surprise that went through me gg. I guess two one Get that across nathan gerby.  He's made some big saves on us tonight. I mean Dude, look at these stats seven almost a minute time on attack to his 45 seconds. He has two shots on goal Um, it has a goal So obviously with a silver goaltender we are going to struggle But we if we keep playing the way we are, um, we should be fine, man We just got to figure out carrie price because he's been shutting us down ever since that second goal he led in There we go Garianov back stream. I wanted that to garianov, but hey still a good chance Again, carrie price just saying no to us.  We solved carrie price Hopefully the floodgates will open now Bang. Oh my god, that was a beautiful spin pass and uh, we just shot it right at carrie.  So looking at the stats. I mean, yeah, we're just dominating We deserve to be up 3-1 potentially more. So if we keep playing the way we play, uh, we should be fine, man Here we go. We're going to the races. You think the one tuck one had a tuck almost worked, man I know it was buffed big time this year, but that almost worked, man Good pass 3-2 We like to make it interesting here, I guess. Huh god. I for a second. I forgot it was only a two-wheel game Big bump carl Over the fast.  We should have this window two seconds to go Not is it two games two wins again div nine? I don't know you guys gonna say man These are easy games, but we will take it with a team like this And we're almost gold ranking, which is very nice We have not been promoted yet Coin summary we're getting coins and we complete another objective, but like looking at these stats Come on, man. Like well deserved. Look at these. That's that's insane So we're ending off the episode with two games. If you guys want to see three games in episode Please do let me know leave it in the comment section below. It's up to you guys I'm fine with two if you guys are fine with two. We'll keep it at that if you guys want three I will do three for you guys But yeah, we're almost in gold ranking, which is pretty good Um, yeah Anyways guys, that's going to be it for the first episode of monopoly hut If you guys did enjoy be sure to drop a like on it If you guys are new around here, make sure to hit the subscribe button again Once again, happy holidays to you and your family.

and another one. What's up people of men are here coming to you with a video this time we are going to be unboxing and reviewing another eco-friendly and solar product that is the UPC code that is the model information it is a solar outdoor pathway light that is a multifunction light because of the way it looks the design functionality alone makes it very unique let's continue with the unboxing the company name is right here and they do cover the product for 12 full months with the replacement warranty there is a contact information on the website and this is the website interesting if you leave a review on Amazon they will donate $1 to UNICEF that is really really really nice this is the only company that I have seen do that so right of the back good job HFWS for doing this this is a very noble deed that you guys are doing and here it is that is the user manual pretty detailed instruction okay interesting so along with the product itself it also has the mounting information and mounting brackets and stuff these are the product specification the battery will last you three years so that is pretty good and the motion sensor detection functionality is up to 26 feet so that is pretty far out and the working hours is up to 10 8 to 10 hours and it is IP 66 proof and it can withstand temperature negative 20 to positive 60 C and it's a metal and plastic hybrid the charge time is 5 to 8 hours so that is definitely good let's continue with the unboxing okay this feels heavy this is metal then you have the solar array on top that again is a UPC code pretty solid ball joint connector so it has once you point it is not going to go anywhere and there is a hex screw thing on the back and the mounting brackets are here on switch right now it's pretty bright so it's not good to turn on because it has a sensor in the that actually prevents it and these are the LED arrays that are here in addition to that it does have a camera mounting system thing that way it actually does look like it's a genuine solar power camera I think the company does have something similar to it and they do sell a product hopefully I will review it in the future and this is how the camera thing will connect and yeah once the solar power solar cell is covered it will automatically turn on and it has a motion sensor in addition to this they're also providing you some mounting hardware four screws and a allen key I guess that's for the back part the antenna does swivel out of the way so it's not going to be competing the mounting bracket of the solar array the solar array while it is flexible you can tighten it up you can fix it in place like so to get it to a proper 25 degree angle that is the idle circumstance that you need to have for picking up the sunlight if it is mounted towards the north you can just unscrew it and it will tilt pretty far back that way the slope is going to be able to pick up because the camera is going to be mounting downwards anyway so it is going to have sufficient backing that it will pick up the sunlight even on the north facing wall definitely a good looking product really sturdy really sturdy and really well made I'm really glad that the company is doing such a noble deed by not only providing good service they're also helping UNICEF to feed the kids and to give kids a fighting chance and 170 countries so just not a specific country definitely big thumbs up for me thank you so much for watching and I will see you guys and girls on the next one later people bye


Finding sources can be tricky. However, there are a few strategies for making the process a bit more seamless. The first strategy is to investigate the research that has influenced an article you are reading. As you are reading an article on your topic, pay close attention to the sources the author cites. Research articles introduction and or literature review sections are great places to focus in on as they introduce research previously published on the topic. As you are reading, if a topic sounds interesting, take note of the author and the year cited. Then, scroll down to the article's reference list and find the author and the year you are looking for. Once you've found the citation, copy the entire citation. Then in a new tab, open Google Scholar and paste the citation you found, then click Search. If you haven't synced your Google Scholar account with USU, watch this video to ensure you get free access to articles USU subscribes to. Google Scholar will pull up the citation and if USU has access to it, you can click the Full Text at Utah State option to read the article. You can also simply scan the article's reference list to see if an article title sounds relevant and interesting. Again, you copy and paste the citation into Google Scholar to get quick access. The second strategy is to investigate articles that were influenced by an article you found useful. Paste the article citation in Google Scholar, but instead of accessing the article's PDF, click the Ascited By link beneath the sources abstract. This pulls up a list of sources that have cited that article. You can scroll through the results to find relevant articles to read, or click the Search Within Citing Articles to do a keyword search. If you are unable to access full text of articles, you can always request an article through interlibrary loan on the library's website, or reach out to a librarian for assistance.


And with a new look, Ross or the Beavers are looking to take a step up in 2017. Losing to the top five scores in program history, third year head coach Chelsea Deville is entering the season with a lot of new faces. It is difficult as a coach to go into games and say, all right, are we going to get better every game? I want to win every game, but it is a process for us. We are new. We're new as far as systems and we're new as far as veterans versus newcomers in their role. Senior forward, Sierrasinski highlights the list of experienced players returning. But to have success this year, the talented freshman class must grow up fast. Up and down, we have six freshmen, four of them saw early, early time even in our scrimmages. But we'll look to a bulk of them to play right away. And of the group of six, no one has gotten off to a better start than guard Brooklyn Bachman, scoring 22 points in her college debut. It was a lot of fun. It's been a while. It was exciting to play with a new group of girls, a new team, new conference, fresh faces. Kind of gave me a chance to go out there. Not a lot of people know me. So it was fun to go out there and just do my thing. So building the chemistry early and learning how to play together is the key for the Beavers this upcoming season. Being ranked so low in conference, not a lot of people are expecting us to be good since we're so young. So I think the freshmen and the sophomores that we have on this team have to really grow up and learn their roles fast because there's not an excuse, oh, we're a young team. No one's gonna take that lightly. They're not gonna take it easy on us just because of that. So we really gotta grow up and hold our own on the court.

What's up everyone? Take Throne here. Welcome back to another video. Today I'm going to be sharing with you how to fix your PlayStation 4 if it won't go into safe mode. Let's get right into this. If your PlayStation 4 will not enter safe mode, there could be a bigger issue with your PlayStation 4. But before we get into the bigger issues and the more expensive things to check, why not check some of the easier cheaper options first? So normally how to enter safe mode, you would completely turn off your PlayStation 4. Once it is completely turned off, you are going to press and hold the power button for about seven seconds. Immediately after you press and hold the power button, you'll hear one beep. Once you hear the second beep, then you can take your finger off of the power button and it should be launching into the safe mode. But obviously, if you're watching this video, you already know how you're supposed to enter safe mode. It's just not working for you and that's what we're going to be trying to fix today. To troubleshoot this issue, first try a different HDMI cable. Sometimes it might be a faulty cable or a weak cable that is causing an issue. If you replace the HDMI cable that you're using with a different one and it works, great. If not, check some of these other steps. You'll want to completely turn off your PlayStation 4 once again. But this time you're going to disconnect all of the cables and wait about 20 to 30 minutes before reconnecting the cables and attempting it again. By unplugging the power cables and waiting the 20 to 30 minutes, this is a soft reset they can do on the PlayStation 4 and hopefully it does fix the issue. After waiting the 20 to 30 minutes, all you're going to do is plug the PS4 back in with the power cable and try to get into safe mode once again. Unfortunately, if your PlayStation 4 still will not enter safe mode, there is likely a bigger reason behind why it is not doing so and that is likely down to the actual hard drive in the PlayStation 4. In most cases that I've seen, people that for the easy fixes did not work for them. Once they replaced their existing hard drive with a new one, their PlayStation 4 is now working properly. But remember, you don't want to go crazy with your hard drive. Most PS4s can only handle up to two terabytes. If you want more storage than that, then I'd recommend getting an external hard drive like I have, which is a three terabyte, but I think you can get them a lot higher than that right now. Now, hopefully for you, the easy fixes worked and you didn't have to replace the hard drive. Most people in my experience, after unplugging it and waiting the 20 to 30 minutes and plugging it back in, doing the soft resets, most of the time that does work and you can enter safe mode once again. However, like I already mentioned, if you can't, it likely is a hard drive issue. Either it's corrupted or there's something else wrong with the hard drive. By replacing it, your PS4 should be able to work properly once again. I hope you guys enjoyed this video and I hope it helped you guys fix your PlayStation 4. I'm going to leave this video here. Please take care. Peace.


Welcome to the original gangsters podcast. I'm your host Scott Bernstein quick hitter edition. We're going out do some court reporting from New York City the five families. He's one of the last people if not the last person to be sentenced prosecutors were he caught the plea they cut everybody in that case caught the global plea back in the summer, which means everybody cops in the same way. Chargers in case prosecutors wanted the claw to do two to three years. Judge ends up giving him one year like 14 months. If he does good time, he'll be home in 11 reasons coming from his attorney is his failing health. It seems to be par for the course anybody over 70 goes to court they're going to be talking about their failing health whether or not their health is failing or not. So, Benji Castellazo now is going to go away for about a year. He's the underboss he's been underboss often on since the 2000s according to his detention memo got the promotion in 2008 held it to 2011 had to go do a three or four year jail sentence and came out around 15 and has held the underboss post in the humble organization since then, a guy that for a lot of times in the in his underboss duties was holding court at a Brooklyn parking garage. Later on, in more recent times in, you know, spent a lot of time in New Jersey, moved his residence in New Jersey, and was like in between a house, retirement home, and a trailer. I'm told that the trailer is him kind of feigning financial destitution being destitute that he has no real financial stability. In reality, I think he does I'm told that he does. But you know for the government that's chasing money whether it be restitution based on, you know, he's got a long rap sheet. In his later years he's been spending some time with us with his wife or his, his widow I'm not sure if she's still alive in a, in a trailer park was also in a retirement home. You know, it was interesting to see this Colombo case that came down in the fall of 21. A lot of the big fish were geriatrics, Benji Castellazo the boss Andy Mushrooso who died before trial. Concilieri, a big Ralphie de Matteo, who got sentenced I think to three years back a month or two ago. He's pushing 70. And then the, the really the, you know, the big fish in terms of the future is Teddy Perceco who got a five year sentence. He's the heir apparent in the Colombo crime family now but Benji Castellazo another thing that came out of this court hearing was, there's always been some debate about his nickname. When he was coming out of court, a reporter from the New York Post asked him where his nickname came from. He said, Oh, I used to be a carpenter and then kind of chuckled. I've seen some, some FBI records and documentations and detention memo and I think on the street, it's, it's believed that his nickname the claw came from very early on in his days as a mob guy he could claw his way into scores that weren't necessarily his. And then another thing that came out of that detention memo that I find newsworthy and want to share is that according to the federal government, even though he was under boss he has conducted making ceremonies on his own. I believe the first one he conducted was in 2009, and they alleged there's been some other ceremonies. Since then, including ceremony since he got out in the mid 2010s and in more recently so he's got quite a bit of stature he's a guy that I know was very trusted by the persicos and, and was dispatched, you know, to numerous other crime around the country to a politic and, you know, he's been under boss now for 15 years, got to go do a year in prison but he'll be back before you know it. Scott Bernstein og pod out.


Is your anxiety a monster that's attacking you? Is it an external force that comes to get you, overwhelms you, over which you have no power or no control? Well, it feels like a monster because I can't control it. No matter what I do, it keeps coming back. When we look at it that way, understandable though it may be, we are often giving up some of our power in the recovery process. Then it's really hard and you can wind up feeling like what can I do? There's literally nothing I can do. I am powerless and nothing I do is going to matter.
