What kind of world do I want to live in? I think about this question a lot For our generation and for specifically my group of people which is refugees circumstances might dismantle any vision of the future that we have You're trying to rebuild you're trying to make a future for yourself, and then the climate related disaster come and you start again It's not about how it's affecting you now. It's about how it's affecting you your entire life First step to understand is that we're all a part of it. None of us are going to be left out by the crisis We're at a stage where if we don't act now really there won't be very much left There are generations that will never see certain things that we grew up seeing in real life We have to start treating this like the emergency it is To achieve the 17 sustainable development goals, we have to go from an intention to a serious commitment Business leaders really need to rethink how they conduct their business and invest in creating systems that are climate friendly The action I would like to see is accountability Structures being put in place where countries aren't just asked to do something, but they're kept accountable to the decisions that they made There has to be that strong collaboration between government, between corporations, between youth activists to drive change forward The world I would want to live in is a world where imagining the future is not a privilege I want to live in a world where people do not give up on hope, hope that a positive change is possible The fact that you're listening today means that you are willing to make a change Welcome to the Uplink Daily. I'm your host, Emanuele Orsini, joining you from the Sustainable Development Impact Summit here at the World Economic Forum in Geneva Throughout the SDI Summit, we've been bringing you the latest updates from the forum's Uplink platform And today, we're excited to announce the best solutions that were submitted to our recent Trillion Trees Amazon Bioeconomy Challenge A call for sustainable solutions that protect and restore the biodiversity and ecosystem of the Amazon rainforest Held in partnership with our colleagues at 1T.org, the aim of the Trillion Trees Amazon Bioeconomy Challenge is to find and scale the innovation projects that not only preserve and restore this vital ecosystem But also provide livelihoods for the people living there Today, we'll be talking to some of the world's leading experts on this crucial topic, as well as one of the winners of the challenge And of course, we'll announce the full list of solutions chosen to be top Uplink innovators But before we do that, let's watch this video to find out more about the challenge Now, our first guest today is Paulo Mutinho, co-founder and senior researcher from IPAM Brazil, who sent us this message on why transitioning to a sustainable Amazon bioeconomy is key for the future of the Amazon and its people Amazon is an essential source of critical information to maintain this planet alive, now and in the future The region supports a high biological diversity and its forests play a fundamental functional role in maintaining the global climate in balance Any viable solution to global climate change requires the Amazon rainforest to remain in standing The Amazon is the last history frontier where we can find the socio-economic opportunities to support the so-dreamest sustainable development It's a source of traditional knowledge, a local knowledge accumulated over centuries by traditional communities and indigenous people This knowledge combined with a mainstream science and a modern approach could create essential conditions to emerge a new economic approach, the bioeconomy In other words, a new approach to conciliate economic prosperity and environmental protection, protecting people's rights and valuing the local knowledge If we want to move forward with a successful process that encourages a transition to sustainable bioeconomy in the region, it's crucial to support innovative and social inclusive initiatives It will be necessary to provide a feasible opportunity to people who want to make a difference Bioeconomy challenge represents this opportunity, favorite innovation, diversity, gender and social inclusion The challenge is a breath of hope, and also bioeconomy challenge represents an opportunity to provide a source of a demonstrative case on how we can support bioeconomic initiatives, not only in the Amazon region, but around the tropical world Thank you Paolo for sending us a powerful message We had a fantastic response to this challenge, almost 100 solutions were submitted through the Uplink platform And now it's time to announce which of them have been chosen by our panel of experts to become top Uplink innovators and to receive support from uplink1t.org and their partners to scale their solutions for maximum impact Congratulations to all of the winners of the Trillion Trees Amazon Bioeconomy Challenge Now let's learn more about these exciting innovators Joining me here in the studio to discuss the innovations is my Uplink colleague and the topic curator for this challenge, Gianluca Gigax Thanks for being here Gianluca Thank you very much for having me, Emanuella Now tell us about the selection process and the range of submissions we received for this challenge Yeah, it's been a very exciting few months for us here at 1T.org and Uplink going through this process We received over 85 submissions for the Amazon Bioeconomy Challenge that are all tackling the conservation and restoration of the Amazon forests And personally, I was excited to see that there is so much good work and positive work being done to build up and enable an Amazon Bioeconomy So we've received projects ranging all the way from indigenous led agroforestry projects to companies that are enabling small holder farmers in Brazil to produce cocoa more sustainably Overall, we then went through five weeks of intensive review and selection phase to find the best submissions out of all of those As you can imagine, it wasn't an easy task but luckily we also had help from our supporting partners such as the Inter-American Development Bank, IDB, WRI, Salesforce, etc Who helped us really to narrow down and end up with a selection of the best top innovations So how many of the top innovators were selected and can you pick out a few that stood out to you? Yeah, in the end we ended up selecting 15 top submissions and they're all equally as exciting and as good And it's actually hard for me to pick out some few top ones that stood out for me because for me all of them kind of stood out But if I would have to pick, there is for example on the value chain side, we have bio refineria sumasacha Who really capitalize on Latin America's biodiversity and bring that to the market through products such as oils, etc. for wellness, health and so on Bring that to an international market and thus enable the communities also that grow these products to have a sustainable income In a similar fashion we have view life which operates in the rural areas of Ecuador And what they do is they plant Amazonian vanilla plants into 4000 hectares of agroforestry zones in order to also generate and then market these products and generate an income for the local communities In a different but similar way we also have two other organizations like Onisafra who are enabling the bioeconomy by providing a digital platform that allows farmers from the Amazon to connect with industry and corporations and sell actually their products to a market And the most amazing thing is that this tech startup is based in the middle of the Amazon in Manaus, Brazil And similarly to this we also have Amazonia Emprende which is an organization that works in Caquetá, Colombia in the Amazon there And they provide capacity building and training to families throughout the region on how to set up these agroforestry system, how to set up this bioeconomy and generate an income from nature at the end of the day And what excites me most about all of these is that they are all ready to scale, they are a proven concept, they are now ready to take it to the next level For example the last one they are now looking to engage with 1500 families over the coming year and really take their work to the next level So they are ready to scale, what kind of benefits will they get from the program to be able to scale up? Yes, we are actually super excited that together with Uplink, 1TLVORG and the partners involved in that challenge we now embark on a four month long engagement programs with these 15 cohort members in order to help them exactly to scale up and accelerate the work that they are doing More specifically this program consists of providing these innovators these solutions with more visibility, elevating them into a global stage and showcasing the fantastic work that they are doing But also it includes access to our networks from the World Economic Forum, from our partners to experts that can help meet the needs that they have in order to scale up their businesses And lastly there is also the peer to peer learning that is happening through the cohort, through talking with other innovators and learning from experiences that others have had What excites me most about this one as well is for this challenge particularly we also, all the submissions have a chance to be fast tracked for grant and investment funding from the IDB lab So another way to kind of provide that initial help to get that scaling up started Personally I'm super excited for the journey that's ahead and very much looking forward to working with all of these 15 cohort members and at the same time bring along as many of you watching today on this journey for a bioeconomy for the Amazon that's good for people, planet and prosperity Exciting months ahead, thanks so much for being here Janluka Thank you very much Emanuela Now our last interview today gives us the chance to talk to an innovator behind one of these incredible solutions chosen to receive the support that Janluka just outlined for us Congratulations to you and thanks for joining us today We are all very happy to be part of this wonderful initiative, thank you Now can you introduce yourself and your organization I'm Muen De Arenas, I'm the executive director of Alisos Alisos is an NGO that was created 11 years ago in order to bring different stakeholders together to rethink pathways to bring us to a sustainable future Of course we believe that the pathway to a sustainable future requires sitting together with all key actors Actors that think differently, that have different worldviews but that their visions are critical in order to start to build that road Since the beginning we thought and we knew that the Amazon region plays a very critical role in the sustainability of Columbia The sustainability of the indigenous communities and peasant communities that are living in the Amazon in Columbia Also for South America but also for the world Today in climate change crisis, of course the Amazon plays a critical role And what we've been doing is starting to build up also bridges between different sectors and particularly the private sector To see how we can work together from also their perspective, indigenous perspective, community perspective and NGO civil society So we've been doing this for the last 11 years What was the inspiration behind your company? We got inspired because we started to see the positive results of building bridges between different sectors and between different visions And the need to have those bridges built and have open honest conversations in order to see how we could come up with solutions altogether for the problems we were confronting at that moment Most of them had to do with conflicts, a social environment conflict So bringing and building bridges was a very profound moving pathway to think of solutions for the future And that's how we got inspired and that's why Alices which means partnership for sustainability was created and founded And what do you hope to get out of this program? Ecotourism is on the mind of every community in the Amazon as being the big solution However, there is no example closed in Columbia that can say look this is the way to do it And you have to build not only, you don't only have beautiful landscapes and you have a very well preserved landscape And you have cultural, you can offer alternatives of different cultures but you have to think of it as a sustainable model And you have to really think of it in the long term So what we're doing here is we're building with the communities Understanding also different ways of thinking and saying that is fine It's wonderful to have this beautiful surroundings but you need to think in terms of who you want to attract How much is your capacity? Where do you want to go? How will that benefit the community? Not only in terms of your income or money that is coming but also in strengthening the processes that you're working On other parts of your community in other aspects of the community So what we want to do here is demonstrate that it's possible to be able to upscale to all the Amazon region And start building up this spirit of entrepreneurship that has to go in the long run It's not easy to think that indigenous communities or local communities are entrepreneurial in our classical way In our way that we think entrepreneurship moves Here everything has to be slightly different because you're talking about different ways of thinking, different cultures But also what does it mean to be entrepreneurial when you're in the midst of the Amazon And you're not surrounded by a market economy And maybe it's a very different market economy the one you want to bring to the Amazon as well What support or resources do you need to take your innovation to the next level? What we definitely need to do is first demonstrate that it's possible Second start to build an example to be an example to the rest of the communities Let this be known to others to the value chain upstream to those potential tourists that can come in Let's bring investment money but investment money that is willing to do an effort of investment differently That is committed to a different way of yields of profits And here we really need a community of not only your clients your consumers of a different product of a different experience Of getting closer to nature but also different type of investments If you have investors whose only interest is the economic yields Well those are not going to be the appropriate so we want to demonstrate that this it has a more open let's say a bigger scope Of what yields benefits are for the investors for the indigenous for the tourists because this is a whole 100% 360% Opportunity in that sense Thanks so much for joining us today and best of luck on your uplink journey. We could not be more excited to start working with you And that's all for this edition of the uplink daily. Thank you for joining us You can also watch previous uplink dailies on the forums website and if you missed it you should also check out this session Innovating for sustainability the entrepreneurs who could save the world which is a chance to watch a select group of uplink innovators Pitch their innovations and then vote for the one you think has the most potential Thanks for tuning in and we'll see you next time


Okay. Shall we start? Sorry for the small delay. I thought I would give you a demo, what I was actually about to talk about was on Windows. Unfortunately, I managed to lock myself out of BitLocker. So, that plan exploded. So, but this is absolutely on-topic because the talks about lockdown encryption security, sometimes it's a bit too secure. So, you can't access even your legitimate data anymore. Anyway. So, one slide about me. Just anybody who might not know me. My name is Thorsten Birns. I work for CIB. We do consulting around LibreOffice. We also do LTS versions and lots of other cool things. I'm with the project since many years. I'm also active on the document foundation board, et cetera. And beyond that, I'm out there and advocating for open source and open standards. Right. So, credits. This is mostly not my work. So, I'd like to highlight the people who did the actual work. My colleagues, Vasili, Sasha and Samuel. The work itself, I will talk about here mostly. It's an example that it was a customer project. There was very large bank that wanted to use LibreOffice, which is a great thing. The problem is that banking regulations all over the world are sometimes rather strict. And one of the challenges that this bank was facing was the fact that they couldn't let the users arbitrarily access documents, so they needed to put controls under what people could do with Office documents. For example, not let them print or copy that or even take screenshots from it. So, you might know that from PDF. For PDF, it's a suggestion, so readers can obviously ignore that. There's other software where there's like rights management system where there's more of a lockdown here. And in this particular case, there is some from Microsoft, from Microsoft Office. There's a solution called Microsoft RMS, Rights Management Solution, that is pretty effective in locking down what users can do with their documents. And that's actually, there was a requirement, one of the entry requirements for that customer to even be able to employ software on their client machines. So, we went and thought about that and looked a bit into the technology there and figured out that it's actually possible to do that with LibreOffice, so we went ahead. And it's actually right now, so there's a branch where it's implemented, there's a number of patches waiting for integration into the upcoming LibreOffice 7.0. We didn't quite manage 6.4 for that because it was rather involved and lots of API changes and code changes there, so we didn't want to risk that. Right, so that's for the outset. That's essentially what I just told you, but I didn't want to distract you with the slide. The challenge really there is for desktop computers because for on a desktop machine, users usually have a lot of things they can do, they can do copy paste, they can save under a different name and then do things. They can perhaps look at the file system and just take the bits and walk away with them if there's a temporary file. They can take screenshots, et cetera. So, there's a level of control necessary and also a level of lockdown and lockdown support from the operating system that you need and to the best of my knowledge, that is probably only really working to that extent on Windows, at least for client side. You can do a lot more if you have a virtual machine or a virtual desktop solution where the users can't really get at the bits. Well, you can then probably still do screenshots, but I suppose you can do that anyway with a, I mean, just physically take a picture from the screen. Right, so that's how it looks for this Microsoft thing. Basically, what happens is there's a document that's encrypted on the server that gets downloaded by any possible means, mail attachment, shared file system, you name it, downloads. So normally you can't, users can't access that. So if they want to access it, they need to authenticate against this little thing here in the middle, I don't know if I got a mouse. Yes, I do. This guy here, which then talks to the client, a little component on the client, on the desktop machine. And what in the end, this little plug in there needs is a temporary session key. That is not something that the user will get permanently. That's not like public key cryptography. That's some password that the user can always use. It's a temporary session key. The problem with the temporary session key is that if the user can get access to that, it becomes a non-temporary session key. So you really want this whole thing to be controlled or a trustworthy environment where the key and the data cannot get out. So that's why this RMS rights management system requires at least the code that interacts with the system and that decrypts and handles the data to be signed so that the client side can actually assess whether it has been tampered with. So code has to be signed and the extension has to be signed and the user needs to authenticate against the client side, which then talks to the server and then the server says okay, when the trust chain is intact, it will hand out a temporary session key. And the session key then travels all the way back and the extension can then, using the client component that decrypt the document, but then needs to, for that to work, then needs to tell the office to disable certain things like for example, copy paste or printing or saving under a different name. So for that we had to tweak a bit what liberal office can do. There were already are, there were a few things already that could be done in terms of lockdown, but it wasn't far from complete. So the most important part that we had to change was the way that document and decryption works because that had to happen in this client library. And since we wanted to, at least in principle, have this technology agnostic and there are ways to do, cannot prevent the screenshot, but there are ways to at least clone that sort of system for something like GPG and other public key cryptography systems. So we added API for that. There's a very small wrapper extension that maps the API through the RMS system that you could use also. It's really small, it's more or less passing things through an adapter, if you will. And you can do that just the same for other technology, for Mac or for Linux. Right, so this API then, disables or enables, depending on the meter data that gets passed on the features. So that's how it works as a sequence diagram, more or less, again, what I mentioned. The important part really is the integrity here, so that at least the extension needs to be signed. And the session key doesn't really never leaves this kind of lockdown or signed code, so that never really ends up in a liberal office code, for example, so that that stays within this kind of lockdown environment. And liberal office gets the decrypted bits out of the API, plus meter data, what is permitted, what it can do with that or cannot do. So most of that work actually ended up in liberal office and there's a bit of a wrapper on top. Potentially you can do something similar with a GNU PG. The sticking point really is you want to authenticate both the user and you want to authenticate the code. So there has to be some like in other systems, some sort of measuring from the outside that ensures that, so there has to be a separate system component that looks at liberal office and authenticates or asserts that it's intact. So that is something that potentially, depending on somebody coming up and thinking that's a good idea and perhaps funding that, there could be something we can do with that API in place. So time-wise, oh yeah, that's still some time left. So that's the core change that we did that affects essentially how liberal office decrypts and encrypts documents that has some knock on effects that would also permit novel encryption schemes without any core changes. So there's some thinking around changing or adjusting the way that ODF encryption, package encryption works. That's right now with clumsy because ODF is a zip archive essentially and the encryption works like every single item in the zip archive gets encrypted individually, which is not a problem if you have, I don't know, standard writer document and with no images. If you have a large impris document with hundreds of slides and hundreds of images, then every single image gets encrypted and decrypted, which is a drain on your random number generator, on your entropy and it's also really bloody slow because the encryption setup, usually if you use a password that gets some key generation function so it iterates a number of thousands of times over the key to get an encryption key and you need to do that for every single document and it's really, really slow. So with that, there's this now plug in encryption and decryption method available in LibreOffice. Well almost, as I said, the patches are not merged. It's a stack of changes that didn't make LibreOffice 6.4. Okay, so yeah, I would have loved to show you that live the problem is, as I said, that lockdown worked a bit too well. So that's how it looks in Word. The, there's this little, so that obviously I had permission to read this document. I got all the rights here. So I got this little info bar there that tells me what I can do with it. And then there's a tool bar where you can say, well, I want to save that and I want to give this group of users that kind of permission down. Which unfortunately I can't show you because it's just a screenshot. And that's how it looks in LibreOffice. So we tweaked, I mean, among other things we also tweaked about the info bar. So the info bar can now do rather nice, complex things like this here. So multi-line and formatting there and more than one control, et cetera. So that's exactly the same document against exactly the same RMS instance. And it comes up with exactly the right permissions. And so it works transparently in that system. And it's, as I said, it's a small wrapper extension that unfortunately we can't open source that for a number of reasons, one of them is actually it needs to be signed and locked down and being taken aside. Okay, any questions so far? Nicholas. Is it by purpose that you use RMS? I'm sorry, that's the action for that. That's lots of ambiguity. I mean, you just don't have so many combinations of three letters, but in this case it's not on purpose. But this RMS time needs to be answered. Yeah, right. But it's a- It's not part of Windows. It is a, it's an optional component that I believe at least under Windows 10 you can just say this is a package prerequisite and it gets installed. But it's a package component. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You look like you want to ask a question or make a comment. If you have some more, I promise you to come to your session and say, I'm bored, I'm bored, I'm bored. Right. Okay. If there's no further question, thanks for your attention.


Greetings! Welcome back to Gains Kitchen. I have omitted the f-bomb from it. I felt that was redundant at this stage. I hope my glorious guns make up for this change in the program. But anyway this is a follow-up to a recipe I made a while back in regards oats. So what we have here is some soaked oats. Looks like that and long story short you have oats and oats along with a lot of other growing things from Mother Earth. They don't want to be eaten so you have to trick them a bit to make them get rid of certain detrimental things. So what we are doing is simply putting it overnight in water along with a source of apple cider vinegar. You can choose some other things here as well. Lemon juice for example. So what that will do is simply to trick the oats into releasing said detrimental aspects of it. So that is what we're doing. We're simply tricking it to believe it's in fertile soil. So instead of going through our digestive system and not really giving us optimal nutrition we can optimize the meal by preparing it a bit. So what I've done is simply what I will do now. So just a bowl and we're gonna pour some good old oats in it. Something like that I never measure. I just go with a general estimate. Then we're going to add our apple cider vinegar. Looks like this and again I'm not going to be ultra strict with the amount. You can of course be stricter if you want but I'm just pouring in some here. Like that. That's maybe a tablespoon or two. Then what we want to do is simply put some water in it. Something like that. So it covers the entire thing. Then we just want to keep this overnight or even 24 hours out in room temperature. So I'm just going to place this somewhere so I can have it before training tomorrow. Then of course this I prepared yesterday so I can have it before today's training. So what I'm going to do now and this is super necessary. Quoting Hår he must be there when I say super necessary. So what we're going to do is since we've used apple cider vinegar it's not a particularly pleasant taste so we're going to rinse this extremely well. So I will do that now before I empty it into another bowl and add the other ingredients. So there we go the oxalates of the oats which interfere with the absorption of certain minerals. They're gone and we can thus enjoy this pre-workout meal and you saw I added some other things as well to it. So some banana, some peanut butter and some cinnamon. So it's a semi-colonial treat this that you can eat before training every once in a while. Main thing just getting some carbs in, getting some good nutrition into fuel the workout and I use this for whatever I'm training. It can be a session in the temple of Ares, the temple of Tyr, the temple of Thor, aka the temple of Iron. So I use it for basically everything. You don't have to use the additional things but oats if you eat it it's a cheap source of good fuel but be sure to get rid of the oxalates and soak them overnight first. So now I will train something fun. I hope that was informative for you and that you have a good session whatever you train. X-XO BOOM! Now on a another note in regards to porn I always need to remind everyone to stop watching it. You can view it in the following way.  So again last message for me stop watching porn. Driving along and suddenly stumble upon a meadow quite aesthetic. So what is the fun thing I am training you might ask yes we're doing some squats today and the full training video log is available on my Patreon for those of you who are subscribed to the physique manufacturer on either Patreon or Subscribestar. So I'll see you all over there. X-XO BOOM!


Hello, and welcome to the official AFC Bournemouth podcast. This is where we're hoping to give you a unique insight into life at the Vitality Stadium and beyond. I'm Chris Tempel, match commentator on the cherries for BBC Radio Solent and AFCB TV, and alongside me for this episode, I'm delighted to be reunited with my partner in crime from our former life on the preview show, Zoe Rundle. Zoe, hi. Hello, Chris. It's lovely to be back alongside you. Have you been coping okay with that? Having to listen to me ramble on every Friday on the preview show? Do you know, it's been a lot changed since we were doing the preview show last year. You know, a lot of different players come in, players going differently, different manager, of course. Absolutely, and of course, most recently, fans back in as well. Fans back in, how good was it? I mean, as we're recording this, that game against Huddersfield was just a few days ago, but it was absolutely brilliant, and that performance, it had everything. It had individual goals, it had team goals, it had a clean sheet, debuts, and of course, the fans. What more could you ask for? And it's surprising how much noise, a small amount, if there's only 1200 for the first game, of course, going up from there, but how much noise they can make. And do you realise, watching back the highlights on AFCB TV, you actually wouldn't know, it wasn't a full stadium, would you, for the raw when the goals went in? Yeah, I mean, the fans, they were brilliant. And for them, it must have been such an amazing moment because we've been so lucky that we've been able to go to games over the last few months. And for them, to be back in the stadium and to be back at home is amazing. And as we said, what a performance they had. I don't know about you, but I've got some goosebumps when the team came out to the reception they got as well in the first game back for sure, when it was, I guess, us remembering what it was like. I've got to say on the radio, it just makes such a huge difference as well, to have a bit of a soundtrack in the background. No let up, of course, as ever in the championship fixture schedule at the moment, but with you supporters now returning to the stadium slowly, but surely, we know not all of you have had the opportunity so far to come back, but hopefully you will do shortly this season, hopefully continuing on an upward path. Now, in episode one of the official AFC Bournemouth podcast, we chatted to the club's technical director, Richard Hughes, who gave us an insight into his role into recruitment operations here at the stadium. That episode, of course, is available to listen to still in our back catalogue, and it won't be too hard to find because it is the only episode in our back catalogue. This, of course, being the brand new official AFC Bournemouth podcast. Today in episode two, we're delighted to be able to take you inside the dressing room. I was going to start teasing his identity with some of his career stats, but then I realised you've clicked on his name to listen to this podcast anyway. So it's a big welcome to a man usually found mesmerising defenders or banging in goals, Arnaut Danduma. Arnaut, welcome to the official AFC Bournemouth podcast. Thank you, thank you. Let's start, shall we, with the fact that we unfortunately haven't seen you on the pitch in the last few weeks. Obviously, you've had a bit of an injury issue, just bring us up to date with A, how the injury is, and B, how frustrating it's been having started the season so well. It's getting better by each day, making a lot of progress. I won't be out for too long, but obviously it's frustrating to be out. Although we've been winning games, so that makes me happy. Obviously, we need to stay at the top of the table. But on the other hand, you would always like to be a part of the team and be involved in winning games, so it's always frustrating being out. Particularly when you put together your best run of form since you came to the club as well. Yeah, I mean, I've been performing well, if I can say so, I've been performing well, yeah. So being out is very frustrating for me. But then again, I mean, I can only focus on my rehab right now and make sure that I make the best out of it and make sure that I come back twice as hard. How good are you at watching, particularly when you know you'd love to be out there? If I need to be really honest, I'm not even watching all the games, because if I'm watching the out, I'll get so frustrated that I'm not playing. So I always watch with one eye closed. Does it make you nervous when you're watching? Because obviously, when you're in the game, you're there, you're playing it, you can impact it. But when you're watching, you can't do anything about it. Yeah, I wouldn't say particularly nervous, but it just gets me frustrated because I'm watching the game, you want them to win. The nervous freedom is where I think, ah, if I was playing, I would do this, I would do that. If I get the ball here, I would do this. So yeah, it just gets me frustrated. So that's why I watch a game every now and then. You know, we're scoring a lot of goals. We're playing a lot of really good attacking football. Obviously, you've scored five goals yourself this season. What's it like, you know, when you're seeing all your teammates score these goals and brilliant goals on Saturday as well? No, that makes me happy as well. I mean, I have a good relationship with the lads. As far as I'm concerned, I want them to do good as well. And I hope they want me to do good as well. So the more goals we score, the better. Obviously, we need to win and it's a team sport, a team performance. So it's all good. We'll go back a little bit in a moment, Arnie, and go back to where it started and back to Holland and talk more about your life away from football. But just give us your impressions on the championship so far.  What have you noticed is the main differences between your time in the Premier League to what you're facing now in the championship? It's a path league. Obviously, playing games back-to-back every Tuesday, Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday. It's quite difficult on its own because it's just a tough schedule. So that makes the way you play football makes it very interesting because you need to make sure the team gets switched on in the right place. You need to get your body in the right place. You have so many teams in this league that are hand-to-hand with each other. It's so competitive. That makes it a very difficult league in my opinion. I would say, apart from the top five leagues in the world, I would say the championship comes right after it. It's so tough, competitive. I just saw in Holland, Ajax won 13-0. I mean, you wouldn't see those scores in the championship. So it's a very competitive league. You need to make sure you're always switched on, even if you're playing against the teams that are at the bottom. So that makes it a very difficult league in my opinion. Is that, do you think, a contributory factor to picking up your injury, the fact the schedule, the intensity of Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday, Tuesday? Yeah, definitely. But on the other hand, I mean, at this moment I have a minor injury and I think with the schedule we have, it's only reasonable if that makes any sense. I think a lot of players will get injured every now and then playing the championship. So yeah, just need to make sure you get your body in the best place possible and go forward from there. How do you handle injuries? We know about your faith, of course, and we'll talk a little bit more about that shortly, with, not just injuries, but setbacks in life, setbacks in football. Yeah, I'm a Muslim, I'm a religious, so I get a lot of strength from my religion. At this moment, for example, my mom, she comes to my place because I live on my own, so that gets me, like, relaxed as well. Yeah, how do I deal with it? That's not really, like, a secret ingredient for me. I just get frustrated when I watch games. Just don't watch games. Now, for me, I think what gets me calm is knowing that I'm focused on my rehab, so I'll do every day the best I can to make sure that I get the best rehab possible to make sure I'm in the best place when I come back. And I think that gets me relaxed, just knowing that every day I'm doing the best I can to make sure that I'm the best ASAP. How important are family to you? Because you mentioned there, your mom, I know she lives over here now, and she's obviously down visiting you as much as you can as well. They're a big family, and they're dotted around here and in Holland and whatever. But how important is that family values and connections to you as well as your off field, I guess, life? My parents are my heroes. I'll respect them always. They're my heroes. So, I think, in general, I mean, you should always take care of your parents. They did it for you when you were younger, so when they get older, you need to take care of them. And that's what I'll try to do. Obviously, not now because I'm injured, so the roles have changed. I think, just in general, you should always take care of your parents.  Obviously, for you, you know, you've spoken before about your parents divorcing when you were very young, but I think you said subsequently that they have a very good relationship. How important is that to you? Um, not very important. My parents did the force when they were younger. There hasn't been an issue for me or my siblings at all. But obviously, it's better if they get along good. But on the other hand, you'll see in some households that parents stay with each other just for the children. But I don't necessarily think that's a good idea because if your parents don't get along, you should just accept the fact that they don't and just keep a good relationship with them. Your mum's been down over the last few weeks. This year, she doesn't live too far away. When you are out there, when you're not injured, does she like coming to games? My whole family is AFC Boom of Addict. They watch all the games. I think I watch less games than them at the moment. Dream AFC beat? Yeah, they watch the streams. They are on it. They are literally AFC Boom of Addict. They need to know everything, every step. They're watching every game. Game, are they the first to text you, first to talk to you? Yeah, yeah, definitely. I get loads of calls now every day. How's the injury? You need to get back. Make sure you get back better. The team needs you. They're winning, making sure when you come back, you need to be in the team. They are on it. Obviously, we've talked about your family and your faith. On a match day, when you are fit, what's it like being an AFC Boomers player coming in? You've got your prayer room right next to the tunnel in the changing room. What's your sort of matchday routine? When I came in, they made a multi-faith prayer room just next to the changing room. I highly appreciate it because that gives me some sort of comfort before the game because I need to pray five times a day and times change every now and then. It takes out of my mind knowing that there's a place where I can just pray and relax for the game and make sure that I'm ready to go. I appreciate it highly that the club did that for me. Before the games, I'll just always come in, relax, make sure I ate properly. For me, my life is about football. Whenever there's a game, that's the best day of the week. I'm focused on the game and just make sure I want to perform on the pitch. I heard you say, Arnie, in a previous podcast, I was listening to you when preparing for this, that Bournemouth have been the best club in your career for accommodating your faith and making you certain from that point of view. Yeah, 100%. Throughout my career, there's no other club than Bournemouth that took care of me to the extent they have been doing so. That's why. Some of the things they did for you when you came to accommodate you? Obviously the prayer room you mentioned. Obviously the prayer room, but besides that, when I came in, Zayna was working here at the time, praying mat for me out. They have a different prayer room at the training ground. It's not only in the stadium. The food they made for me is halal as well, so they have been doing loads for me. Yeah. I was, again, reading and listening to some comments from you that just going right back to where it started, you said as a child, your friends maybe were going to the mosque, but you were football, football, football. And you wished maybe now you went to the mosque with them instead. That's as much as it, as strong as your faith is that back when you were younger, you actually wished you'd played less attention to football and more attention to your faith. Yeah, definitely. Because as I grew up, my faith became more important for me. Obviously football is my life, so being religious takes a bit of pressure of me as well, because literally my life's based around football. So yeah, I think when I was younger, if I would focus a bit more on my religion, I would be a bit further in my religion now. But obviously when I became older, I got more interest and I wasn't that interested when I was young. And all my friends were, I was just kicking balls on the street 24-7. So now I wouldn't say it's a bad thing because that took me where I am today. But if I would go back, I might have changed it a bit though, yeah. It took you to PSV as a youngster ultimately, didn't it? 11, I think, was that right when you joined PSV? Yeah, that's right. And then obviously went on to NEC when it didn't work out for you at PSV. PSV obviously is one of the giant names in Holland. I guess how much is there a regret if there is that you didn't quite make that first team appearance at PSV and when it came to the crunch, they said, you're not for us? Yeah, I've had some ups and downs in my career at PSV. Obviously, my personality is I want to succeed everywhere I am. So I had a couple of decisions at PSV. I had a couple of moments where I could leave the club, but I chose not to. That's because I'm always desperate to succeed wherever I am and I want to prove myself wherever I am. So it was a very tough and a hard decision for me at that time in my life to go to a different club. And I think if I can say that PSV regrets it as well because I think I've proven quite a lot already. But for me, there are no regrets with leaving PSV. They've done good for me as well. It was a great time in my life and I'm really grateful for the period of them taking care of me in my life, but there are no regrets for me. I went to NEC and obviously had a great two years and they contributed great to my career as well. Obviously, when you left PSV, as you say, you went to NEC, how much for you did it sort of drive you to not necessarily prove PSV wrong but make a point and as you say, you always wanted to succeed. You always want to succeed. How much did that sort of rejection from PSV turn this motivation? Now with me a lot. I mean, that's just the way my personality is. I always want to prove people wrong that I think the wrong thing is about me and I always want to sort of beg the arguments of people that think I'm a good player and I want to perform obviously and just let the world see what kind of player I am and I want to show my qualities on the pitch to the world. So obviously, PSV, like not having the faith in me reaching the first team that just gave me a stronger motivation in making sure that I would succeed in football and prove them wrong, yeah, obviously. As Chris said, you joined PSV aged 11. How difficult was it to then acclimatize, if at all, to a different club because you'd been there for so many years and all of a sudden you're moving and it's a different environment, a different setup? For me, it wasn't that hard. Yeah, because as I said, my life is about football. So wherever I go, I'm focused on football, playing football, making sure I perform, making sure I put the best performance on the pitch. So for me, like, needing to get used to a different environment isn't really difficult for me because, I mean, all the pitches are the same and my goals are always the same. I just need to make sure that the ball hits the net wherever I am so it's not very difficult for me to get used to a different environment now. With NEC, they got relegated then and for you, that kind of saw you have a different lease of life. You know, they went down a division and you seemed to fly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We went down a division and they changed the coach at that time and the coach that came then, Adri Bogus, was, in my opinion, is a great coach and he helped me really move forward. I like working with him and he got the best out of me and yeah, I appreciate him as a coach as well because he done a lot for me. What was it about him that made him so different that made him stand out for you? His way of training and his way of dealing with the lads, I mean, he was a coach that could really deal one-on-one with the players and I think I needed it at that time and besides that, he is a great coach in terms of the tactics and the way he wants to play and that suited me at that time and I could perform really well under him. Obviously moving from NEC to Bruges, geographically, it's not too far just across the border into Belgium but how different was it moving to suddenly you're out of Holland for the first time? Yeah, again, there weren't a lot of differences. I came there, settled in quite fast and I went to play in-game so for me it isn't really difficult to get used to a different environment. I came there, got my house, lived there and went training, kicked the ball and made sure I performed. I mean, for me it's about performing 24-7 wherever I am so if it's in Holland, in Belgium, UK, China, I don't care. How much of a pleasant surprise was it for you if it was at all when suddenly a club like Bournemouth because you hadn't played that many games for Bruges, had you really? Before you came here, suddenly they want to pay £13 million for you. How much did that pleasantly surprise you that after so few games that the Premier League came calling? If I need to be really honest, I wasn't really surprised because I done really well that season and obviously we pretty much played Champions League, I performed well in the Champions League, played for the Dutch national team, scored a goal against Belgium. They were I think the number one country in the world on the table of nations. So I wasn't really surprised. I done well just in a short time. But that went down well with your Bruges team, it's the Belgian ones anyway, you scored against Belgium. They were pissed though. As you say, maybe not surprised and maybe you weren't such a familiar name to Bournemouth fans but when you came in here, how does it change your mental outlook as a player when suddenly you cost £13 million, a massive fee? Does that suddenly put that expectation around your neck for people to sometimes use as a positive, sometimes use as a negative? I think it certainly comes along with the expectation but then again, I don't mind. I think it's reasonable if a club buys you for £30 million that you need to perform. So I kind of like the pressure that comes along with it because every club that will buy me, I always want to try and give them back what they deserve because obviously a club that buys you for a lot of money, they buy you for a reason so I always want to back the argument and make sure that I'm worth the money they're paying. I've got a quote from you here which she said a couple of months after joining Bournemouth, you said, I was firmly set on joining Bournemouth when I found out that they were interested in me and for you, what was it about Bournemouth that made it so different? Why Bournemouth? Why did you want to come here? Obviously the club isn't, it wasn't at the time, it wasn't maybe the biggest club in the Premier League and to be fair, I had other options as well but with AFC Bournemouth it was like a small club but it was more of a family feeling. The stadium isn't too big but the fans are always giving their best for the club. So it's just like, it might not have been the biggest club at the time in the Premier League but it was just such a family feeling, a warm club and I like that about the club. So for me it was when AFC Bournemouth came in like I knew straight away I wanted to go there. Did you speak to Nathan Akko before you joined, your teammates? Yeah, 100% and he gave me a heads up, he was like whatever your feeling is and the way you think about the club that is a warm club, it's like a family environment he's like yeah I can back that and if you come here you'll get the same feeling as me, it's a good club. So he kind of helped me coming here as well. I always get the impression with you, you and your teammates, you're so tight with each other after a game on social media when everyone's putting their posts up, you're the first one to comment and congratulations to your teammates on a good performance. Has that come naturally to you? Yeah, we have some great guys in the team and for me I think the better you are with your teammates off the pitch the better you'll perform on the pitch. You're 24-7 with each other in the end, you need to do it with the lads in the changing room so I think it's better to have a good relationship with them because you'll perform better on the pitch as well and it comes natural as well. Yeah, on and off the pitch I'm good with the lads and it's good that it comes natural and make sure you perform with them better on the pitch. We'd like to wait a little while for your debut obviously after you signed with a little bit of an injury but you made your debut at Burton on a Wednesday night in the League Cup when you lost to a low-division team the floodlights kept going out as well you've just come from a team that's playing at the Champions League Honestly, as you sat there watching the floodlights go out are you thinking what on earth am I doing here, what's happening? I think I need to leave the club now. Now, I can remember that game, yeah. We should have won to be honest, so I was pissed because it wasn't the best debut. Yeah, that game was a headache to be honest. I can't lie, that game was weird because the lights keep falling off and everything. We should have won, the gap was pissed. You remember it for the wrong reasons. Yeah, I remember it for the wrong reasons but on the other hand I was happy to make my debut and for me it's just another achievement I'll reach in my life. I made a debut for the club, on to the next one. Only six starts unfortunately in the Premier League last season for you with injuries. You were out from early December to the restart you came back briefly and then you missed the run-in as well. How much of a difference do you think you could have made if you'd been a fitter last season? I mean it sounds a horrible question to put to you but could it have been the difference between staying up and going down? No, it's not a horrible question at all. I think if I could have played more games I think we would have stayed in the Premier League if I need to be honest. I think I could have contributed a lot to the team and I think if I played more games we would have stayed in the Premier League that's my opinion. How hard was it for you to watch particularly having come back in the restart and things were going well in restart and then it just couldn't quite get going could it and it went to the wire but you said you're not good at watching games how hard is it to ever spell to watch games? Yeah, that was very frustrating as well obviously we weren't winning a lot of games I thought I should have played and it was such a difficult time for the club because obviously you want to win the game so badly and I could see why the Gaffers stick to his team because it's difficult changing a team when you're under a lot of pressure and you want to perform and you need to make sure that the club wins the games because otherwise you're going to relegate so it was a very weird and difficult time at the moment so for me it was important to make sure that I wasn't a drag for the coach if that makes any sense so I just trained hard to make sure I put my head down and did everything the coach wanted because obviously no one wanted to relegate and me neither so I think at that time of the season it was just important for me to put aside all my pride and everything regarding me as an individual and just make sure I contributed everything I could to the team and in my opinion I did in the end it wasn't enough Chris has mentioned that restart there but for you being in and around the squad how much of an impact do you think that had because just before the break we'd played quite well at Anfield albeit not the result we wanted we'd drawn 2-2 with Chelsea it looked like performances were starting to pick up a little bit but how much do you think that break really had an impact? I think it had a massive impact though but I wouldn't use it as an excuse either I said it this season as well to a lot of the lads last year I can remember the first game against Sheffield we drew I think we should have won that game and there were so many games that we played in a Premier League which we should have won or we shouldn't have lost I mean if you can't win you just need to make sure you don't lose because it will get you a point and in the beginning of the season it seems like ah it's just a point or it's just you'll get it right at the end of the season but in my opinion you should be on it in every game at the first start at the first game of the season so when this season started the new season started and I knew I was going to play so before it went out I made sure the lads knew even this season from the very first game sorry from the very first game we need to make sure that we get all the points because the points you're winning at the beginning of the season might be the ones that will take you to the Premier League at the end of the season and we've seen just how tight it is at the top of that championship so you know going into the start of the season with that in the forefront of your mind it's so important isn't it that you could pick up every single point that you can yeah yeah 100% you need to pick up every single point you can I mean in the end of the season it might be that point you need to go to the Premier League and I've seen in my career already we relegated with NEC on one point to less and obviously we relegated with Bournemouth and that was tight as well so it's a good life lesson learn from me and you just need to make sure it doesn't happen again in my career how hard for a player like you and I think of similar players in the team like David Brooks and others how hard is it to be consistent how hard is it to be the flair player making things happen every single week yeah I can't speak for Bruxy but for me I don't find it hard at all that's the reason I live I want to make sure that I have an impact on the team I want to make sure that I contribute to the team winning so that's just normal for me if that makes any sense I know when I step on the pitch I know the club bought me for a mess of fear and I need to make sure I perform I need to make sure that I still achieve the goals I want to achieve because obviously I'm ambitious as well so for me it comes natural every day I wake up and I train I need to make sure I perform the best on the training pitch and make sure that when we're playing games that I perform there good as well so it comes natural to me if that makes any sense we talked about your debut which maybe wasn't so memorable but your first goal obviously was a little while coming against Blackburn on the opening day of the season it won goal of the month as well it wasn't just a tap in how much did that mean to you as well in terms of saying right I'm not only going to get the assist in here and beat defenders I'm going to contribute some goals as well when we got relegated obviously everyone was pissed I went away came back but I got my head in the right place and I just needed to make sure that this season I need to perform so I came back this season after we got relegated did well scored against Benfica and preseason scored against West Ham in the preseason competition started scored against Blackburn scored goals played well so I mean I've been on it from day one and that's how I plan to go through the season and I just need to make sure that I perform every day and day out that's just where I am Well come on to your international hopes of getting back in the Holland setup shortly but what is the timescale in terms of when you feel like you need to be back in the Premier League or back in the top European League Yeah I'm still young like obviously I've played the Champions League already and I've been there so I know what it feels like what it feels like to play there so I'm very ambitious I've always been and I just want to get back to the top and perform there and show the world what I'm capable of So yeah basically I came as well because of Nathan and he just left me like that So if you're seeing this if you're seeing this you're very selfish No but obviously I'm ambitious that's one of the reasons why I came to AFC Bournemouth because it's such a good club in having players make the next step and there are certain players that have proven it already and I just hope I can help the club getting back to the Premier League because that's the main thing right now playing here, performing and making sure the club gets back to the Premier League For Arnaud, Vigil, do you need to go back to the Premier League with Bournemouth to then be able to make another step do you think? For me it's about getting AFC Bournemouth back in the Premier League and what happens after that I'm not really thinking about that at this moment it doesn't make sense I mean this club needs to go where it belongs we've played Premier League for five years so I think the club needs to be up there and needs to go back there We've just been talking about your contribution and your goals I just want to ask you about your celebration every time you score you sort of make a snake symbol with your hands just talk us through that where did that come from and what's that about? So when I was younger I played with a friend of mine and we always played five sides on the pitch and it was a difficult time for us in our lives at that moment so when it was difficult for us we always just took a ball went out on the street and played five sides with a lot of friends and a friend of mine I always competed against him because at that time I was the best of my team he was the best of his team so whenever we were playing five sides he was on the other side and when he used to win from me he used to do that symbol against me and it got me so pissed got me so pissed but we ended up being the best friends at this moment so when I score a goal I contribute the goal to him and that's the reason I'm doing the celebration You're obviously still in touch with him Yeah, obviously And for you those early memories from you to now be in stadiums obviously we're just starting to get fans back to be able to celebrate in front of the fans and stamp your mark on it that must be very special Yeah, 100% I mean I came back scoring a lot of goals and no fans in the stadium so I've kind of been celebrating for the camera instead of the fans but I'm really looking forward to the fans being back there they've been back already but obviously I haven't been on the pitch but I really want to play with the fans I mean I've missed that feeling Yeah, definitely You speak about celebrating in front of the camera it's been absolutely brilliant because when you scored this season you seem to have clocked where the AFTV TV cameras are you've come straight over Yeah, I've got a feeling of it now Are you aware of where they are before the game or is it just kind of instinct moment I've scored They're always on the same place when I score I always look left if they're not there they're on the right they either left or right from the goal And now we know that your family are watching the stream very closely you're effectively celebrating directly to them aren't you 100% I need to be careful what I say on the commentary now that I know your family are watching the stream Every word you say Every word I promise you I'm surprised you've turned up You mentioned they're growing up and going back we know you've spoken about it quite a lot before I know you've said every single interview people ask you about the start in terms of how your start compared to where you are now do you feel like you had to overcome a lot when you got started even getting as far as FC Earth your first team or getting to PSV Yeah 100% I've had to overcome a lot but then again I think like the strongest soldiers overcome the strongest battles so I don't necessarily see it as a burden I see it more as a blessing in my opinion because it made me the person I am today and because I need to overcome a lot of things I mean that made me stronger today I think I think it's only good that through life you go through a lot because it makes you stronger and it makes you like I'm mentally prepared for whatever comes my way it helps me on the pitch I want to win 24x7 for me it's about winning, winning, winning and I think I became this way because I needed to overcome a lot of things You got treated differently when you were maybe younger because of maybe the background or some of the things that you had going on in your family I've read some comments about you having to get the train or getting a lift to training where everybody else was driving flashy cars Do you think you got treated differently? 100% without a doubt Is it fair? No Did I need to get along with it and get the best out of it? Yes I mean life is unfair for whatever reason and I've always been that way I mean I know life is unfair but instead of sitting in the sofa and just watching a lot of series I think I can better stand up and make something the best of my life You say now that a lot of the things you do to help other people and to inspire other people because maybe you felt like you didn't get as much help from certain people maybe in the footballing world when you were growing up as you felt like you should have done Yeah, definitely I mean I appreciate life because I need to go through a lot of things that changed my view on the world and it changed my perspective So wherever I am in my life I always try to help other people as well I mean even if I say it myself there are a lot of things that I do off the pitch I try to help other people where no one knows about because I kind of never tell anyone because I feel then it's for the wrong reasons I mean I can go on this podcast and tell all the good things I've been doing but then I'll just do it to get myself hyped and that's not the reason I've been doing I generally want to help other people and make sure they get set in life as well And of course people assume that with status and with money and being a top level footballer that life is rosy and life is everything that you see on social media but of course it isn't and every player has their problems either football, injuries, whatever is that something is that a misconception because everybody is a person that if you have money and you have status that you don't have any problems No, that's a very wrong statement 100% I mean in my opinion materialistic things money, cars, everything you can name it there's no end to it I mean if that's your life and goal you'll end up on a road which has no end there's no light at the end of the tunnel if you chase cars or you chase money because there always be more money if you have too many if you have too many you want a billion so for me it's about making sure what you appreciate in life and that will keep you on the right path definitely In terms of your background obviously it was tough for you at times when you were growing up does that help keep you grounded now? Yeah, definitely definitely Yeah, because what I've went through changed my perspective and the way I see things in life that keeps me definitely grounded now and I appreciate a lot of things in life which I didn't use so appreciate if that makes any sense so definitely my view has changed since I'm younger and that helps me at this time in my life as well Do you ever sort of think back to those times and you see yourself now out there you've been playing in the Premier League you're obviously playing in the Championship this season that must make you feel immensely proud seeing where you've come from and where you are now Yes and no it makes me proud because I always appreciate where I'm at life but then again as I said I'm very ambitious very very very ambitious I play for the Dutch national team which still burdens me because I didn't have a great season last year so I'm desperate of getting back there as well and I'm doing everything I can on the pitch and I'm confident I'll get back there I play Champions League I want to go back there as well last year I didn't perform for the club as I think I could not necessarily because I couldn't but yeah the injuries just set me back so I would say yes and no I mean I'm still very ambitious I'm grateful and I'm thankful where I'm now I'm at a good place I'm at a good club a good league to show myself in we have great stuff one of the best stuff I've worked in my life and that's no lie so I'm in a great place but then again I'm so ambitious and there's so much I want to achieve so I'm definitely not done yet In terms of internationally I think me and Chris were talking before about players that have been called up for Holland Tim Krull for example he's playing in the championship and he's still getting that call up You don't want to piss me off though so that same week when he got called up I scored a goal against him so why am I not getting called up So you should have been called up but for you seeing Tim Krull getting called up and playing in the same league as him it obviously goes to show that I was, to be fair, wasn't the league called up because that means they're watching the league and I think they should because the championship is definitely definitely tougher than the Dutch league I mean there's no comparison if any club wins here 13-0 or 6-0 I'm quitting I mean the league is so much better in so many ways so much tougher so much difficult so I'm happy that they are watching the league obviously I'm just not happy that they haven't called me up yet I suppose if you're slightly worried hearing that if Bournemouth tonks somebody you're going to quit because they've scored five against Huddersfield so before you're in it in a minute as a team they're going to be a bit worried you're off You mentioned the Holland situation there obviously did you have a tough choice between Holland and Nigeria or was it a straightforward one because obviously you left Nigeria when you were very young but your mum is Nigerian Yeah my mum was Nigerian but I've always been in charge of my own choice there's no family pressure there's no pressure at all they always told me choose where your heart belongs and at the moment when I could play for Holland I was more than happy to play for Holland and I'm still more than happy to play for Holland obviously if I need to be honest I think the rules have changed if you have one cap you can still switch and there will be a certain time in my career where I maybe might need to make a choice and change scenery if that makes any sense but at this moment knowing that they caught up to him they're watching the league I'll just need to make sure I do all and I'm confident I'll get back in there 100% We're pretty much out of time Arnie but we have got a couple of quickfire fans questions so these are nice short, sharp ones I'll give you the first one would you rather play alongside a prime Lionel Messi or prime Cristiano Ronaldo Ronaldo Okay That answers that one What is your favourite position on the pitch that one's from Danny Whitelock I would say left winger Why don't I play at top as well on number 10 or a bit more to the right I don't mind but if I would say a favourite position that would be left winger, definitely Oliver Ribe, we've already asked you a question about the goal celebration Cheryl on Twitter wants to know what is the best goal you've scored in your career The best goal I would say the goal against Atlético Madrid or the goal with the Dutch national team against Belgium but maybe the goal with AFC Bournemouth against Black Well saved Got some angry faces over there so I need to mention that And there's one from James here How powerful is it when you take the knee before a game and how important is it to support It's very powerful I think it shows a lot of respect to the Black community but on the other hand and I've said it before and I'll say it again I don't necessarily think that it's a lot to what's going on right now I think if there's there needs to be a change I think the only way of making a massive change is you just need to make sure that the next generation get educated in the right way I don't necessarily think taking a knee will change a lot of the situation in the world but it is definitely a strong feel Arnie we're bang out of your time I know, so we just wanted to say on behalf of the fans who've been listening to this it's been really interesting to get an insight into the dressing room and into your life and back story as well, so thank you so much for talking to us thank you a lot for inviting me on the podcast Well Zoe how good was that to be taken inside the dressing room just to get a view on the current situation obviously the frustration of Arnie's injuries and of course somebody's got really such an interesting backstory as he has and how he got here to Bournemouth in the first place Absolutely, I mean in episode 1 we got a perspective from someone higher up in the club and to go inside the dressing room now it's a fantastic insight and to have him for the amount of time that we did to talking to players after a game or before a game in three or four minutes snippet so to have him for the best part 45 minutes has been brilliant I think that's one of the beauties of the official AFC Bournemouth podcast is that we are able to get beyond those me and you do it every single week we do the pre-match or the post-match interviews where it's always a little bit of a rush players emotions are either running high or low there might be some mowers going off in the background it's so good to be able to sit down and talk at length with people and just hear a little bit more about them on team sheets or the back of their shirt but actually people have such good back stories Absolutely and when we're talking to them after a game we're so often talking about the game you're not ever talking about their background or their international career you're talking about what's happened there and then so to be able to have a perspective of someone like Arnat Dhanjim who's played for his country he's obviously from a different country he's played in Belgium and it's a fascinating insight and amazing to hear where he wants to go with his career and how ambitious he really is so it's always great to hear a little bit more of the characters behind the names on the faces that you've become so familiar with worth pointing out as well that Arnie's rehab of course is top priority at the moment so this one a little bit shorter than our previous podcast with the Arnie's rehab schedule if you like giving us the time available that we had don't forget if there's a particular player or member of staff or somebody at the club that you would like to hear from then don't forget to let us know and use the hashtag AFCBpod don't forget to mention and to share us including who you'd like to see on the podcast in future and maybe some questions or reasons why you'd like to see them on and don't forget also to subscribe wherever you're listening as well to the official AFC Bournemouth podcast it's afcb.co.uk for all the club

So the Air Force actually extended the apron with the the broad extension project okay so from the broad extension project the Air Force built up to the frog here is going to be the extent of E-923 okay Sherby Fitchin they do sir MACG has half of that building there actually it's a little exchange LCB has a lot of exchange they've got it off to the right for those two Civil War trailers those are the mount hangers my phase hanger right here Sherby and on the other side of the phase hanger you'll see what looks like a washer off that's here you put an air purifier? yes absolutely uh no for we don't need that I thought our ramp was the same as the other half of the Air Force ramp that looks like a dirty thing I think it's fair to do what you just said I think it's four times the size yeah yeah all right that's good yes sir yes sir support facility you kind of got a good list of you've got a van pad, a headquarter supply, aviation life support facilities armory, ordnance storage, ground support so it's just a list of support facilities contamination, existing environmental values that thing gets fed through processing all day at a date support facility back in that same area just kind of surrounded it okay yes sir we're heading over to the town hall sir back in Hawaii you've seen the kind of capability they have this thing you've probably seen in the news you know lorry munitions is coming along I mean I think if we can just not get too fancy with our structure and our training and how we manage our Marines will have a really unique capability and I'll keep that in mind your building readiness, taking care of the airplanes taking care of each other training this mad taff team you could be plugged in anywhere you might be the most ready squatter in the Marine Corps period right now we just made another decision come out and allow us to go back up to the 16th squad


We determined at our last council meeting that we'd have a period between first and second reading in which we would engage in some aggressive mediation, start a real conversation, a much more face to face, sit across the table, the realities that we all know from our different life experiences and professional experiences that you get across the table from somebody. It's amazing what you can work through and work out just with good, strong, positive dialogue. Positive dialogue doesn't mean that you agree on everything, but it means that you push and you pull and eventually you come up with something that is much more representative of consensus and compromise. We had the opportunity, several of us, around this table to meet with Judge Tommy Cooper, who, other than the fact that I'm married to the most awesome circuit court judge in the whole state, he's pretty high up. Judge Cooper, I think Charles and Michael and Vance, the others around the table who are attorneys would suggest Judge Cooper is highly regarded and for years has been often times rated as the number one judge, circuit court judge in the state. He gets things done. And we were able to come around the table and to build some consensus around some key points that were designed to allow the students at Drear tomorrow and prospectively to have the opportunity to experience what high school is supposed to be like. They're in their backyard. The opportunity to fully participate in superior extracurricular activities, athletic facilities that they didn't have to drive for our distances to. At the very same time, working to meet the needs of all the neighboring communities in historic Heathwood and historic Meadows Heights and we were so happy to have Shannon at the table with such a preponderance of the students coming from the greater Shannon area. And we got around the table and that morning, early morning at 8 a.m., I think we left shy of 5 p.m. And over the course of the day, I was in and out. We had the inauguration of the President Benedict and Mr. Rick and men. He said he fed everybody because everyone was still happy when I came back. So I assume everyone did eat lunch. But over the course of the day, we're able to hammer out a modified plan that pulled a number of still high quality facilities closer to the commercial corridors, built some significant buffers and restored some of the proposed housing plans to the site and represent a number of concessions from both those representing the neighborhood associations and the school district and boosters. Everyone gave something. And I joked with Judge Cooper because some of you who have had the opportunity to know or work in front of Judge Ralph King Anderson. But he would always say in the words of the prophet Isaiah, come, let us reason together. But it's amazing when people sit down and say, you know, and just talk to each other that we can get some things done together. This is not a perfect representation of exactly what's needed there. I think we determined that we're not going to let the perfect be the enemy of the good. This is a good and strong step forward. The proposed plan, I'd be happy if some of you, I think everyone's had a chance to review this document, represents a modification that goes back to where the school district wanted to start and where the neighborhood wanted to be and that no one wanted to see the end of the pud. So we wanted to keep the pud in place. And then the school district was told by the city, I guess two years ago, that no, that was not an option. That we indeed had to pursue a full rezoning. And that's when things blew up. Now, since we're going to the mixed use pud, we have other options before us. So the pud is kept in place. And we believe this is the proper way forward. This does mean, as many of you know, that the school district's determined to not pursue the rezoning of the property. But to seek a major change to the pud. And that's still a process ahead. It's still a process that's going to be complete, replete with public input and comment. And we want to make sure that the citizens know that they always have a right and a home upstairs at the planning commission meetings and at city council meetings and we want to hear people's thoughts and concerns and constructive criticisms. But again, all still in the spirit of us working together because we are a community and we're supposed to work together. We're going to continue to work together. I know that several of our neighborhood leaders put a lot on the table to come here and to work towards a compromise. And I want to say thank you to you all. None of you are new to the game. You've been very active in our neighborhood associations for years. And it just being mayor of the city, that ain't easy. That's not easy to do. It takes real leaders to do that. I want to thank you for being at the table. And I know we're going to have to still dialogue a lot over the next several months as we seek to make this a reality. The school board of commissioners, I want to say mountain chair and you and the vice chair and Craig, your folks were there, president and accounted for and willing to shift and change and magic markers out and figuring out how things move around and some things that at the beginning of the day seem to be absolutes. They're not absolutes by the time we got at the end of the day. Michael representing the families and the boosters. It's so interesting. Obviously, many of you who are so deeply steeped into this discussion as parents or boosters, many of your children will never benefit from these improvements. I mean, so really we're talking about a generation of kids. And this is not perfect, you know, but we're talking about securing the futures of a generation of children after this, not just your kids. And I think again that speaks to the leadership that we had at the table, the leadership of Drear High School, which I'm not going to get my butt kicked by every other high school in the city. But Drear is a national leader. I mean, Drear is a national leader. It's a national leader. It's a good product in Richland School District 1, just incredible leaders, global leaders for years. And we, I think, have a collective commitment to making sure that that continues to be the case, that that continues to be the case, and that the successes that we've seen all across Richland, and Drear and lower Richland, AC Flora and Kenan Eau Claire and Columbia High, I didn't miss anybody, and C.A. Johnson. And I still feel obligated, as I joke last week, I also always have to reference Book of Washington, because they get mad if I don't recognize them. But the incredible success and we are achieving things that many people never thought the district could do. I mean, from, as I say, T-scores and Gates when they name scholars. And we're doing some awesome things, and again, we're doing it together. And we've got to stay on that path together. Lastly, I'll say Daryl and Beatrice and I don't think any of the other commissions are here. The unanimous vote of a commission that I know is a lot like City Council. We don't vote on a whole lot of things unanimously. But I know it's representative of some real leadership against and give and take even on the commission. That everyone's not unanimous in the way in which we think or act. And you all stepping up, and I think committing to a way forward says a great deal about the strength of the commission and the commitment. I hope you don't mind me saying this, Cheryl. I'll get ahead and say it. But as we wrapped up to hear Cheryl and Mary Baskin talk about doing lunch. We got to do lunch. We committed to doing lunch. We got to do lunch and spend some more time together.  Those are the ties that bind. We have the opportunity, if we keep talking, to really get some things done well beyond this discussion. We'll be discussing this together the next several months, but well beyond this discussion. And if we do that, I really believe the sky is the limit. But it's going to require real discussions. It's not going to require us as leaders always speaking to the better angels of this discussion to not allow those who may not agree with consensus, not every bullet point on this. We may not agree with consensus, but who have the luxury of anonymity and reach on the Internet to throw out smart comments and lob grenades at one another. We have to ignore that. We have to ignore that and continue to dialogue in the interest of positive resolution. That's what we saw last week. That's what we saw yesterday. And that's what we're going to need to see over the next two months. So I just wanted to say to the members of the press, we've been chatting amongst each other all day about whether we have a press conference, no press conference. I've got to move this around. I've got to do that. What are we going to say? And I just thought it was important for us just to come around the table together and say that we still got a journey ahead of us. We've got to get through the process. We've still got a whole lot of public input to have. But I remain convinced that if we do it in the spirit of transparency and honesty and active positive discussion, we can get it done now.


This galaxy is called Cercinus. Much of the gas in its disk is concentrated in two specific rings, a larger one 1,300 light-years wide and a previously unseen ring 286 light-years wide. Both rings are home to large amounts of gas and dust as well as areas of major starburst activity.  The black hole and its secretion disk are expelling gas out of the galaxy's disk into its halo. The detailed structure of this gas is seen as a magenta colored streamers extending towards the top of the image. Located near the plane of our own Milky Way galaxy, the Cercinus galaxy is partially hidden by intervening dust along our line of sight. As a result, the galaxy went unnoticed until 1999.


So, once you've submitted your application, you'll be shortlisted to be interviewed, and this could be in person or this could be done online. For internship positions, typically there is only one interview. For new grad positions, there may be a screening interview and a full interview afterwards. So regardless of whether it's an online interview or an in-person interview, you want to do things like showing up on time and dressing well for the interview. Typically they'll ask you questions about your resume, your job experiences, any extracurricular activities that you have, followed by some behavioral questions. And so for the behavioral questions, you want to make sure that you're using this start technique so that stands for situation, task, action, and results. And you want to use that all the time when you're answering those behavioral questions. And I can make a video on that later on if people are wanting to know more about that process. And so at the end of the interview, after they're done asking you questions, so that this could be around 30 to 45 minutes, you would then have a chance for yourself to ask them questions. And so it's always good to prepare some questions ahead of time. And so the offer, typically they'll get back to you within the week for whether you got the offer or not. But before you hear back, I would also recommend that you actually continue to secure more interviews just in case you get rejected. And for interns, typically, interns send out maybe 30 to 60 applications before they are able to secure a job, which is why it's very important for you to continuously be searching through LinkedIn, CareerMind, and other job boards. Another thing to note is hiring typically takes place in cycles. So typically there's a May start dates, a September start dates. The May start date is more common because that's when you finish your second term. And so those postings would typically go up four months earlier, which is actually right about now. So in January, that's when the job postings typically come up to hire for a May start date. All right, so this brings us to the end of the video. Some bonus tips. Companies like to hire people who can do 12 to 16 months. And the reason for this is because once they do change a student, they can take advantage of that for longer. And they don't have to be continuously bringing someone new and training them, getting them up to speed. So it's a lot more efficient for them. And for you, while that may provide more job security, the downside is that you won't be able to get as diverse of an experience versus say if you do multiple four month positions at different companies. Through that, what you can explore and see what jobs you like, what jobs you didn't like and use that to help you make an informed decision for what position to go into full time after graduating. Another thing is safety is very important within the mining industry. So anytime you bring that up in your resume, cover letter or interview, you should definitely highlight some of the safety related achievements or mindsets that you have. Another thing is the first job is going to be the hardest to secure just because you probably won't have any relevant work experience to talk about. And so in that case, this is when I would recommend that you focus on things like safety. If they ask for, if you want to see something like strong interpersonal communication and team building skills, you would definitely want to make that the focus of your application. All right. So this brings us to the end of this video. Thank you so much for listening in. And as always, if you guys have questions, leave them in the comment section below or you can ask them on Instagram. If there's a topic that you want to see in the future, let me know as well and I'll be happy to make more videos for you guys. All right. Thank you so much and have a good day.


Step to paying off your student loans while teaching English abroad, collect bonuses and severance. After completing a teaching contract, many teachers receive an end-of-year bonus and also a severance in some countries. Usually the bonus is paid by the school, whereas the severance comes directly from the government of the country you have worked in. The former is generally paid to you with your final paycheck, whereas the latter is often sent to your bank account back home within a couple of weeks of completing the contract. Depending on your contract and teaching location, the bonus and severance can amount to several thousand dollars, so be sure to collect this money that's rightfully yours, or arrange for it to be transferred to you before you leave. Again your employer and co-workers will usually know how to proceed with this in your specific country. Thanks so much for watching.

Gitanjali, what about the UN Sustainable Development Goals? How would those informed design practice today? Well, we all know that some of the key global issues today are poverty, climate change and the loss of natural habitats as well as armed conflicts all over. At the national level, we have to deal with issues such as hunger, lack of education and health facilities and growing violence in the name of religion. So what happened at the United Nations? Well, in September 2015, almost 200 countries met at the United Nations and adopted a set of goals to end poverty, to protect the planet and to ensure prosperity at a global scale. Around the world, there was a demand for leadership on poverty, inequality and on climate change. So in order to turn these demands into actions, world leaders adopted an agenda for sustainable development. Their objective was to produce a set of universally applicable goals that balances the three dimensions of sustainable development, the environmental, social and economic. These sustainable development goals, also known as SDGs, unite us together to make a positive change for both people and the planet. For example? For example, one of the goals involves taking urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. Another goal is to build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation. There are 17 such important goals. Which you can find on our course platform in the reference tab. Well, these goals for sustainable development offer us powerful directives for doing design. Design for sustainability enables us to make the quality of our lives and that of future generations so much better. That gives us a lot of hope. Thank you, Geetanjali. Some of you may be feeling overwhelmed by the problems of the world, but don't be discouraged. We are now more than halfway through this course and hope you've all been learning more and more about design and seeing the world around you with new eyes. Next time, our topic will be design for industry and we will continue to explore sustainability practices there. Now look for your assignment in the assignment tab and submit it any time in the next two weeks. And don't forget, a little design goes a long way. See you next time.


Yet another thing from Anchor. I feel like cool stuff found is, you know, on average about 30% stuff from Anchor's portfolio of products and rightly so. I have no issue with this.  He is recommending or telling us about the Anchor 321, which is a 20 watt power strip with three USB ports and three outlets. And what's cool about this is he says, it solved the problem that I had with a very busy outlet near my sofa. What it does is it plugs into the wall and there's a cord that brings you to the, you know, to the, this cube is really what it is. And the cube means that you don't have plug contention. You've got three outlets, one on each side of a cube. And then on another side of the cube, you've got two USB A ports and one USB C port. So you've, yeah, I like this is fantastic. I like this thing.


In today's video, we are going to look at a cat breed that appears to be part bunny and part cat. The Bobtailed Cat Breed. The Bobtailed Cats arrived in Japan, as forms of gifts from the Emperor of China. They have been known to live in the island nation for at least 1,000 years. Their short tails were a naturally occurring phenomenon, that was then set through selective breeding. Over the centuries, the cats were not only imperial pets, but also guardians of grain supplies and protectors of the lucrative silkworms, both of which were threatened by rodents. Bobtails with a tricolor coat, red and black, on a white background, became known as popular symbols of good luck. Three of the cats were imported into the United States in 1968. By 1976, the short-haired variety had been recognized by the Cat Fanciers Association. The long-haired Japanese Bobtail did not achieve CFA recognition, until 1993. Today, the Japanese Bobtail is recognized by all North American registries. This breed's most iconic characteristic is, of course, its short bunny tail that can be flexible or rigid, with one or more angles or kinks, and should be ideally extending out from the body, no more than 3 inches. The fur fans out to create the look of a pom-pom on a short hair, or a blooming chrysanthemum on a long hair. Each cat in the breed has a unique tail. The Japanese Bobtail, is known as well for its tricolor calico pattern. Other popular colors are black and white, or red and white. He also comes in solid colors, like tortoise shell and tabby patterns. Some cat registries permit pointed, or sepia tone coats. Bold, dramatic markings and vividly contrasting colors are a trademark of this breed. The eyes can be any color, including blue or odd-eyed. The silky coat can be short-haired or long-haired. In both lengths, the cats have a little undercoat. Long-haired Bobtails may have a rough around the neck, long fur on the belly, and fur that is noticeably longer on the tail, and upper hind legs, than it is on the upper part of the body. Some have tufts of fur on the ears and toes. Bobtails have a slender yet muscular body. They also have long and slender legs, that are noticeably longer in the rear. Though they are angled in such a way that the body remains leveled, rather than rising up toward the rear. They are also known for having a finely chiseled head, with high cheekbones, large oval eyes set at a slant, and large, upright and expressive ears. Hello. This video is sponsored by Beemix Pets. Are you looking for high-quality cat collars at an affordable cost? Check out beemixpets.com. This active and affectionate cat will talk to you in a soft, chirpy voice. You will be amazed by the range of his feline vocabulary. He's not loud at all, but he does have a lot to say and a range of tones in which to say When he's not telling you about his day, or asking about yours, he is very likely carrying around a favorite toy or splashing his paw into your koi pond or aquarium. He likes playing with water, so you may find your faucets turned on or puddles beside his water dish. This is an adaptable cat who travels well, making him a good choice for boisterous families or people who enjoy an RV lifestyle. On the downside, he can be headstrong, and it's difficult to change his mind about which things are okay to do and which ones aren't. He is a busy cat and must-have companionship. Remember that a bored bobtail is an amazingly creative bobtail, and not necessarily in a way that you will appreciate. The bobtail is a great match for families with kids, because they have someone to share their high-energy levels. These cats are up for anything. Things like playing fetch, being a guest at a tea party, being dressed up in doll clothes and paraded around the house, these cats enjoy every single moment of it. Always supervise children to make sure they pet and play with a cat nicely, making sure that they don't pull the cat's ears or twist its tail. He is happy to live with cat-friendly dogs too, thanks to his amiable and fearless disposition. It is ideal to introduce pets slowly in controlled circumstances, to ensure that they learn to get along together.
