By the way, Tanya McColl will be playing live in the Beehive in Ardra on December the 16th, so that's going to be a knowledge of cracking gig, so put it in your diary if you want good music go along and once again the Beehive in Ardra in our hometown and that's the 16th of December. Right, excuse me, we say hello and welcome the first time for a sensational new rock band here. It's notions how he's doing that. We have Mark and Finlay and Mason. So you got in touch a couple of weeks back. We have a good time during the summer now, we're leaving Sertmar with Terrible Type.  Our main guitarist, he's not here tonight but he did his leaving Sertmar last year and somehow managed to balance the band and we're struggling this year. So we might take a few tips off him I think. We're getting through it, you know yourself. So how long has he been together as a band? About seven or eight months. We all know each other for a good long time, like me and Mason and the guitarist Bobby we all went to primary school together and then me and Finlay, we go way back to the drama back in the day. About a year ago me and Finlay and Bobby started a band and then Mason came in and became the singer. And then that's when we kicked off. We're going to talk more about your music but we want to hear some of your music first. So what are you going to do first first? This is one we wrote about four months ago, it's called Uneniable, it's one of our own songs. Whenever you're ready, we're looking forward to hearing this. Three, two, one. Written by yourself, do you write together collectively or individually? Well we always, well I sometimes have fiddle around a bit at home and then show them, then put the drums to it, the bass to it, the guitar and then we come together. Mason always kind of comes with the initial, maybe like the way the lyrics are done and the wee bit but it's amazing. Once we're getting to where we're practicing, our mates are shedding that and Bobby's shedding it. It's like holes in the shed and everything, we're basically outside. It's a bit dodgy but it works. So when we get the first million paycheck we're going to do up the shed. Make me too far away, make me too far away. Playing live, where have you played live? Well we've done a lot of gigs. We started off in the cottage at the open mic nights and it's kind of like our go-to spot. We've done Blakes, Voodoo a couple of times. We opened for The Lost as well and that was our first kind of gig. Where was that done? That was done in Blakes. And the cottage was our kind of mouthpiece was our first gig in that. So we're so grateful obviously for that was our first gig. A lot of praises to be given to these venues for supporting. That is amazing of them. Because that's what's happened for a long time. They won't step up the mic a lot of people but in this town here, my god, I'll tell you what, they certainly support local music and we see that if we're out and about tonight, it's just absolutely brilliant. So how many songs have you written in total do you think? We have about six in our locker really. Six in our locker. The way that we've nailed down six. We're also big Oasis fans as well. So we kind of throw a few of those in the fee cover songs. We do like to put our own trust on songs as well and keep it notion style kind of thing. If you can have your own slant in a church where people recognize your voice, that's the important thing. Because equally it's good. So I'm going to start with you Mark. Your musical influences. Right. Well, I'm going to be honest and start off when I was four years old. My dad sat me down in the car. I was like, right, this is AC DC. And well, ever since then, like I grew up with rock and roll and I love it. And then my sisters and my friends kind of, I have a wild variety of music. Like I could go from rock and roll to classical music in no time. Good. And now drums. I picked up drums when I was 13 and I taught myself mainly. And then just that was kind of me. That's good. And the good thing about the drums, you don't have to carry them around me. If you're doing something like this, you have the week of horn. The horn here, the cone is actually, I should shout out the school for giving it to us. Shout out the Colise Shelley. Yeah, shout out the Colise Shelley. We're doing a show on the 24th and 25th of October. So, but this go on is the school's property. And I just asked him, I was like here, we're playing on Highland Radio. And I was like, the drum kit will definitely not fit in here. We have drums. We do. People come up with drum kits. The only thing you find with the drums in a small area, like it can be overpowered. Yeah. You know, that works brilliantly. It makes me bounce especially with the two acoustic guitars. Of course. Finally, yourself, music inspirations? I'll say I'm a massive Queen fan. Freddie Mercury, Brian May. Oh, yeah. Again, same as my RKCDC as well. So I was always kind of the classics and that. Now, I've frowned on low. So I'm always listening for anything from Daniel Donald to ECDC next week. Well, that's good that you can go right across. I'm an acoustic guitar player by trade, but I play bass for the band, obviously. And I've fallen in for a guitar today. How long are you playing a guitar? About three or four years or so on that. But a gig around is about myself on that.  I suppose our hopes are that, if we get some more open mic nights, I think Club B O will be the next one as well. How are you doing that? Well, I've done that a few times myself, but I think we're looking now at the acoustic setup. That's a great venue down there. It's great. It's been a while since I've been down there. We're down there. And I just loved it. Loved the atmosphere. And people listen to you so well. I think for original songwriters, you couldn't ask for better. You see, that's what I say.  She was talking about house concerts and stuff. And what you have there is, you have people who are there to hear you. And it's a different type of audience than playing maybe loosely in a bar, if you know what I'm saying. I don't mean it disrespectfully, but it's just a different show. Mason yourself, your music inspirations, are you all to say it? I'm kind of going for Oasis. Oh, yeah. Yeah, everyone knows I'm a big Oasis fan. All that stuff from Manchester in the 90s, or Stone Roses, very well. But also from my dad, though, and just been music when I was young. And it's kept that ever since. Good stuff. I'm delighted to hear that. You haven't recorded it, are you? You've recorded yourselves, just basically, is that it? No. Not really. We're working on the plans to record properly and release some tracks. Obviously, Mason's flat out riding. He lands down one day. We're just like, oh, I have a song. We're like, all right, let's just crack it out. So we're looking to the next stage, obviously, to get some tracks on Spotify, anything and that. And fall, like there's some great bands out there as well that we know have been so good support, like the E-Fades and all that, similar to ourselves. That's what I was about to say. The thing about it is, Spotify's a hit or miss with a lot of people. Of course.  What's that like? So I've no real guilt about it. But what I do like about it as an artist is that you can, you can basically look and see where your music's been played or heard and stuff like that. And I think that's brilliant. That was easy to see. As an artist, you go, okay, you go, look, I didn't know where we were. In Australia, you listen to my music. You know what I mean? Which is brilliant. It's brilliant. We wish you well with that. Right, we're going to get another song for you now if you don't mind. Of course, yeah. This one's a bit of a slower one. It's called Tragedy, another one of our own. Right. Hi. Whenever you're ready, let's just build it right. One, two, three, go. You're sounding so original, amazing band. Wow, somebody said. Great band, fabulous sound. Chinningham from Utenconningham here. Notions playing amazing tonight from Rhea Glenn. Hey, Glenn. Max here. I am ready for the Notions. Good man. And George Brownan, you might know George, but he's head of security for the Whelan Banshees. And he said, you're brilliant. That's fair play. Soul fires. Fabulous stuff. See, that's what it's all about. We have football. Finn Harps taking on Galway United tonight. We're going to head over to Eamon DC Park in Galway. And we'll be right back with you. Stay tuned for where you are to stay with us. Good stuff. Good stuff. Finn Harps on Highland Radio in association with B&S Credit Union, Ballabaffay, where they have fantastic student loan rates now on offer. Don't miss out on the greater reduced rate. Visit bnscu.ie or call free phone 1800 290 390. B&S Credit Union Limited is regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland. Yes, Dan. John Mulligan reporting. Last time we were talking to John, it was 1-0. I wonder how the score line changed. John, the latest. Let's follow us, Dan. It's still 1-0 to Galway United. There's been a couple of half-chances for the Harps. Patrick Ferry had a shot that went to the left of Brendan Clark's goal and then moments later found himself soaked with Armoured Loughlin coming in. United have had a couple of chances themselves. One from Ed McCarthy, another from Waseem, both missed and then Stephen Walsh had a header which skewed to the left of the post. So the game has kind of heated up a little bit and it looks like a running battle between Billy Banda and Ed Irvin at the moment. They won't seem to be getting in each other's faces quite a bit. United have made a couple of changes. They're making a couple more. There was one major injury situation in the first half. As we were telling you, just Francis and Bottle turned over at Wazeankal. The Galway United player went off in tears and we believe has now got a hospital for X-rays. So that will be a concern for them. But in fairness, as we have to be said, Dan Murphy will be very happy with the way that his team has played. They've defended very well. Half a chance. And again, this one has gone over the crossbar. Stephen Walsh is trying to claim that there was a corner. The referee is having absolutely none of it. So as I look at the clock, we are now into the 28th, 29th minute of this second half. And United making three substitutions in front of me as I speak. But it's still going. United won. Finn Harp still. Thank you very much indeed. John Mulligan and we will be back with further updates before the end of this second half. Live in studio is a local band. When I say local, are you local? Let it Kenny or...? Well, we're kind of three of us. I'm not Let it Kenny. Yeah, you're the odd one out here. Kenny, I travel now. I'm so committed. I travel now every week. True. Every week, though. Every week. Dedication. We'll make our first million again. The petrol money is going to be... You can land it there. Rosie Connelly said, please play Fallen Angel. That's our next one. That's our next one. Ah! He's out to Rosie, though. Anastasia Roach said, your fabulous lads. And Shauna Gillan-French said, well done lads. Brilliant. That's great stuff. What are you getting next week when people hear you? Well, to be fair, we don't actually... I don't think we know who. I was trying to look at the calendar. My birthday party is the next one. I see birthday parties. We have a few birthday parties, and then we have a big gig going on, maybe Halloween. We have to get that sorted. Excellent. Excellent. So if you want to keep updated, our Instagram is... That's what I want to ask you. What are your social media? We're on Instagram right now. It's the Notions. It's the Notions. Was it Zed? Was it Zed or Zed? Was it Zed? Zed or Z? Zed. Well, listen, we want to wish you well because I think you're going to... You know, you definitely have great potential. You have a unique sound, and that's what you like to hear in a band. And the fact you're making music is what I love, and long may continue. If you're looking for a studio, there's plenty of studios out there if anyone wants to get them touched and take these boys on. And, you know, that's what it's all about, supporting local music and Irish music, as we do here in Highland Radio. And we just love... We just love the energy that comes from these new bands, and long may continue. Well, that's your final try. Hi. Notions are sounding cracking as always. Can't wait for another live performance. Viva the Notions from L'Arla. Is that... It may be Jarlath, is it? Jarlath. It's L-A or L-A-I-T-H. The way I read things that could be someone else. Rory here, the Notions are the next up. Oh, I haven't seen it. Notions are playing great tonight. Can't wait to hear them. What else did they offer from Tom? And that's what notions... That's what notions get attention. That's what notions get attention. Parry making. Parry making. There you go. Put that on your merch. We actually have our first merch. We have one T-shirt. We have one T-shirt. We have one T-shirt, welcoming our T-shirts from Maeve. Notions are going places. Thank you very much, Maeve. Thank you, Maeve. Maeve. I'll get the merch out tonight. People love the merch, you know, not free merch. Sell it. No, no, no, no, no answers. Wow, these guys have a unique voice. I heard them play at the Merry from the Low Festival and they were brilliant. Great to hear young talent like that from Gracie. You're 100% right Gracie. Were you playing at the Merry from the Low? Yeah, I played at the Merry from the Low's first open mic night actually and it was kind of organized and we were meant to be the headline act and so it was an absolutely amazing experience to be playing at the home town as it was there. Well listen, I just want to wish you all the very, very best because you've definitely got something unique and I'd say we would love to go along with somebody to hear you live, access all your East Green Room stuff and all that free beer, that's our runner. Sure, when we get paid, you can have a concert or you can have a couple of other wages to plan out for us. Good, Brendan. Final song that you're going to do first? Fun Angel for all the fans. This one's for Rosie. There you go. When are you ready, boss? So far, so bear in mind and when you're writing again, think of just rodin' shoutin' for just what you want from your gigs. Do you ever notice anybody singin' back lyrics if you're at something? It's always actually that song that air people have seen. They always sing fallin' and we actually, or the last one at the cottage I think was a really like sing a long one where there are actually people that didn't actually use the song. See, there's one part where I go, well it's like we get people clappin' and it's quite like it happens right there. It's a great feeling though, isn't it? You watch somebody singin' their own song back at you. I never had that feeling because I never wrote a song either. Stephanie Bradley said lovin' the notions, great sound, great talent and Helen, hello to you Helen Sweeney and bring it up well done. Maria McCormick, you know Maria? Of course, of course. Maria said come on the boys and Emery Brennan said so, so good. Funnily enough Maria McCormick at the first time I ever played guitar with Maria when she had the happy camper down in Glenvay and that one she's still on the pancake so shout out to Maria for her. The guitar's lasted. Very good. Rosie Connelly said fabulous, funnily mark and missin' well done and Evie Brennan said smash. And great band, great music, just to put it to the main man, Bobby isn't there from Ronan. Usually he's on us and he's like slide into the guitar. It wouldn't matter if he was on ready, we'd still be like do you know Angus Young, he's just Angus Young. Very good, very good. We'll bring him up on next day. That's right, that's right. From Antean on real lads, big future ahead, now a happy save so well done the notions. Brilliant, gotta play 250, one of the best. That's one for the next day. Listen lads, mark, funnily and missin' delight to have me here and you'll come back up again this. Of course, of course. Paul and Javi, thank you so much for having us on, it's been an absolute pleasure. Let us know when you record and we'll certainly be pushing the waiter up here at Highland Radio. So thank you very much. That's the notions everybody, yo! Thank you very much. Right, we're going for a quick outbreak, we'll be coming back with an update on the soccer and we have a brand new single which is released the week before last from Thoulos, our good friend Danny McElhoney and Karmic Curtis. Don't go away.


It's looking better. I would say that when you get those five, six, seven bills down there for your signature, the average will go up to about 40 and two or three percent will do better than eight weeks ahead before the fort. And the others you got left to, some of them are pretty, pretty good people. I mean, the Morris Group, for instance. He moves education pretty well.  I don't know how to solve it, this airline strike. He did an exceptional job. That was just an unbelievable one, and they just turned him down flat. And we had two real good liberals, Dave Ginsburg, who used to be with Henderson, the OPA, you remember him. And Dick Neustadt, and they asked for four dollars and four cents, and they gave them four dollars. And they asked for a re-open it when the Consumer's Price Index went up, so they provided it if it went up as much as one percent above the average it could. And they gave them four weeks' vacation after 15 years. And this guy just really wants to cause trouble. Well, he seems to think that both sides are in cahoots. He does? Yeah. A couple days ago he said he didn't think he really wanted a settlement, but this was a good settlement. I think he knows more about it than anybody, but I think the airlines will settle for damn near anything. They'll make it so much money. And they don't want to close down. And I think that they would, but we're afraid that they don't, because what I called you about this morning, I was quite distressed at Dirksen's statement yesterday. I called him about it. I went out to the hospital to see him before I went out to see you, before you went to hospital. I went out to see the Vietnamese fellows and Eisenhower and Dirksen all at one time. And I sat down and talked to Dirksen and told him about what was going on in Vietnam and told him about a big problem with the petroleum supplies. He said, well, you want me to come down and meet with you? I said, no. I don't have anything to meet about. This is just one of the problems and decisions we have. Either way you go, it'll be bad. He said, well, his views were pretty clear on it. He gave them to me. And that was about all of it. He came out of the hospital and gave an interview that said he thought they ought to have a meeting. So I called him up and said, I'd be glad to have a meeting. Who do you want in the meeting? When do you want it? I said, I thought we ought to bring everybody up to date. So I, after a security council meeting, I asked Russ to go and speak here in Mansfield and meet with both sides. So there were all the leadership before he went to Brussels and I answered any questions they wanted to ask and briefed them. And they did that. He said, well, that was all right. He didn't think there's any need for any meeting. I said, well, if you do come on down. I'm ready here. I'm here seven days a week. Now he didn't want it yesterday. He made the same statement. So he said that there's a crisis of confidence because I thought we ought to have a meeting and make it clear. So I called him again and told him I'd be glad to see him. What did he, what had developed since we talked? He said, well, these fellows on my side, talking, think about forward and layered, put pressure on. I've got to throw him a piece of meat now and then. And I said, well, now I'll be glad to have a meeting. When do you want it? Who would you like to have come? Would you like to have the overall leadership or do you just want to send it? No, he said, I just said what I wanted to say and I'm with you all the way and you don't need to worry about that. Now, I don't know. I don't know what they're, I guess he just playing a little politics. The APS party, I said, well, he had suggested that the day he got out of the hospital then two or three days later, he said there was no need for it. Now he's coming back the same thing. And I said the president would be glad to see him with leadership at any time they desired or any senator who would make the request. Yes, I told him to bring anyone he wanted to anytime. And I told Hickenlooper that yesterday at the lunch for the Nicaraguan president. And I tell you that now and any of them come to you raise any question. You tell them that you'll have Ruskin their office in an hour or you'll have McNamara or you'll have the appointment with me. Anyone of them want to talk about anything. We'll just make the senate priority matter on any information that we can give them. I had no request. But you let them know because I told the Rackett members, I told Russell down, I told them, I want to see you in the hospital, I want to see Dirksen and I've reported pretty well to everybody that I know of. I've had all the senate in this year. Do you think maybe we ought to have them all in again? I think it might just stir up things more than they are. I don't know. I wouldn't unless there's an increased cry and I don't detect any. Well, develop otherwise then you can reconsider the situation. I had to hurry to make a careful study again just between us, Mike, our friend Rayburn is leaving us. He's kind of like man and he's quitting. So I rather think I might put in him. Do you have any reaction? Well, I don't even know the fellow. I have no reaction to it. He's the one you said that's the old pro down there. I don't know how he gets along with the hill. He doesn't know a thing in the world about politics. Never got elected. Well, that's an important fact you have to consider. Yes it is. He's a newspaper man and he gets along with all the press. They all like him. And all the folks are like him and seem to trust him more than they do a fellow with a military background. They didn't like McCormick much. Yes, they liked McCormick. Did you turn that thing over to Harry? Yes, I discussed it with him. I asked him to review it and make recommendations and told him just about my feeling. I'm going to see him today and get a report from him on it. I told him to talk to you. Did he see you? Not yet, but I'll have a talk with him. He wants to see you. I told him to see Dierkson. I told him to see Russell. I told him to study the rules. My own feeling is that our position ought to be that this is a matter for the Senate. Under that rule, certain committees have jurisdiction. They determine what jurisdiction certain committees have. If they want to change that jurisdiction, they can do it without messing it. And I think then that would require probably having to bring that up. And I would guess maybe then that somebody'd clear the floor and let them debate it. It will be cleared. It will be cleared. If this is brought up on the floor, it looks like it will lead to an executive session. Do you have any thoughts about any other things in the world? No, sir. No, sir. Not at all. What do you think about Vietnam? Well, I'm not happy about it any more than you are. I was a little bit disturbed by a largest first paragraph. It is quickly reported to you about heavier bombing, which I understood under, which I assume meant the Haipong-Hanoi complex that was leading up to it. I think it would be the most serious mistake because those places have been evacuated to a degree except for industrial needs. So there won't be much damage hurt, but you've got jobs with 320 or 30,000 men waiting.  We've got to lose. Let's go. They won't come down in divisional strength. They'll just disperse those divisions into really units. And it will be awfully hard for us to maintain the ratio needed. As far as petroleum is concerned, I don't think it pays a hell of a lot in the life of the Vietnamese, rather. As far as mining or blockading Haipong harbors concerned, you've got more stuff going out of Haipong than going in. There are those coming in at Haipong. The ships have been reduced considerably. What British ships are left are usually under Hong Kong registry and are struck. Maybe a very old ownership of the communists. You run up against other nations and create a situation that is already difficult. You make it more difficult.  If you really go at them, this could turn into an open-ended war. And other countries would begin to criticize this more than they ought to do. I think it nearly everybody. Well, they're not going to mine the thing. And they're not going to bomb any industrial complex. What they're going to try to do is take out the POLs. They find the petroleum supply is almost double what it was last year. Their needs are, and their supplies are stored there. And they're trying to get rid of that storage and dispers it. And they're scattering it around where we can't get to it with the individual bombs. They put it underground and put it in concrete, and they won't take it out before it's all gone. And they're just about to walk out on it. They think it's a tragic mistake not to destroy that petroleum that's supplying 10,000 trucks that are coming down there. It's in the edge. It's kind of like a Mount Vernon or Alexandria or Arlington in Washington, D.C. I seem to be the only one that's afraid that they'll hit the United States Capitol or hit the hospital or hit a school or something. They don't think so. But I see so many of these airplanes get off all the time. They don't, like this B70 thing. And they just constantly make mistakes. And they don't know when these planes will fly over to China. Oh, they do that. They do that. They do that. I don't think that'd be a problem here. But just as they do get off over there, they'll probably get off here. If they get off one little inch here, you could drop a bomb on a school or on a hospital. And that's quite different from the oil. The experts say that the oil is not going to infuriate or inflame them more than the bridges that we're taking out running to China now. That is about as big a needle as we can put at them what we're doing now. But the oil is so much more important because they've got to have it to the trucks. And now we've got their light plane knocked out. And they knocked out one of ours yesterday too. That we've got to take out the oil. Now we just keep delaying these decisions for various reasons. It's somebody going on a mission. This time, Russ, because in Brussels, you can't do it. When you get back, we've got another fellow going to Hanoi. And things of that kind that it's pretty hard to do this while this is going on. Because they'll say that you do it. But the military and the fellows out there, Westmoreland, just feel like that you're just letting them shoot our men unnecessarily. That you don't stop this, you ought to make it as difficult. You can't stop it, but make it as difficult for them to get supplies as possible, or you ought to be in there. And that's another thing. None of them think you can get out this year. They all think that while the casualties are like hell, they killed several hundred yesterday at one rate. We just give them a mop it up every time we meet them. They nevertheless think that we're going to be there all year. Do you see anything further that we can be doing on the negotiation fund? No, sir. The only thing is, DeGaul sending John Santamé, an old China hand, to Hanoi v. King after Cougti Murgle had conversations with the North Vietnamese accredited delegate to Paris, indicate that something might be in the wind, and I would assume that this is going to be a matter of the highest priority when DeGaul goes to Moscow and meets with the hierarchy over there on the 20th of this month. I'm assuming, of course, that you're still maintaining your indirect, all indirect contacts that you can with Hanoi, but no break so far in sight. But you've got to keep trying, and you are. Okay, my friend. Thank you. Listen, Mike, you might bring up this question with Dirksen and see if he wants to come down, tell him that you saw in the paper where he won't do it, and you're ready to come anytime he wants to. Okay, I'll talk to him. It's a matter of...

The Presidential Election Petition Court PEPC on Monday held its inaugural session, a legal to retroll that precedes the actual hearing of petitions seeking to nullify the outcome of the 2023 presidential election. Now at the session, a five-member panel of justices of the Court of Appeal that will hear and determine all the five petitions challenging the declaration of Bola Tinubu of the ruling of Progressive Congress APC as the winner of the presidential election were revealed. Whereas the panel will be headed by the presiding justices of the Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal, justices Haruna, Samani, and other members of the panel are justices Tivan Adda, Sabah Division, justices Mansurat Bollaji-Yusuf, Sabah Division, justices Bolu Kuromo Ugo, Kanu Division, as well as justices Abba Mohamed of the Badon Division. Now in his opening remarks, the President, the presiding justices, urged lawyers representing all petitioners to avoid sensational comments stressing that the Court would not tolerate time-wasting tactics and technicalities. Well, joining us to discuss the said technicalities is Barista Obinna Chikwiz, a legal practitioner. Good evening, Barista Obinna. Thank you so much for joining us. Good evening, Meryem. Great. Thank you for having me. Yes. Explain to the layman what you mean, what the Court or the panel meant by technicalities. Of course, we know about the sensational statements, but what are the technicalities that they would not be considering in this particular proceedings? Okay. I mean, technicality referred to by the justices of the presidential election tribunal. What that simply means is that the Court will not base its judgment or will not allow for kind of reliance on misstep or reliance or failure to follow a particular procedure prescribed by law. So what the Court is saying is that the Court will hear the matter based on its merit, based on its merit, that the Court will not allow for filing of applications in court, maybe owing to or due to failure on either of the parties to have followed a particular procedure prescribed by law. What you find in the normal court proceedings is that if the other party fails to file a particular thing or follow a particular procedure, the lawyer on the other side will either file a preliminary objection or, within the issue of jurisdiction that the Court does not have jurisdiction based on that failure, but in this instance, the tribunal has said that all that the tribunal wants to do or will do will be to hear the petition, the presidential election petition based on its merit. I think that is a welcome development. It goes to show that the tribunal, this time around, is ready to deal with the main issue here, the matter based on its merit. You've seen tribunals like this also in previous elections who have also made statements like this of looking at the cases based on merit. But again, looking at the time that we're in, Nigerians have some post-traumatic stress syndrome from the elections and previous elections that we've had. What do you think will be a game changer or what do you think this tribunal has that would one way or the other assure the average Nigerian that there's going to be some level of trust for the judiciary also knowing that there's a trust deficit between Nigerians and the judiciary? I think going from the few statements made by the Court, I think the Court is doing a right direction. But again, Nigerians are kind of the background of previous decisions of the tribunal and because with the Nigerians themselves didn't go down or didn't come, didn't resonate with what they're thinking of Nigerians. I think looking at the few statements that have been made, I think the tribunal is doing the right direction. But for me personally, the only one that I did not like or I will not support or of course my support will not change anything. But the only one I didn't like is the decision of the Court not to allow the proceedings to be aired live on television. I was actually about to ask that because many Nigerians were hopeful that they would bring some form of leveller with that access into the Court room even though that's not generally been our proceeding or the modus operandi. Many had thought that at least for once this would be the case. Why do you think that maybe the Court decided or the tribunal decided to take this position? Okay. I think that the Court decided to take this position maybe because of the tension in the country. If the Court decides to allow for live viewing of the proceedings, there is a likelihood that people, Nigerians may interpret or may see a particular incident or incident that will occur during trial or during the proceedings to end being biased. I think the Court wants to be free to either correct or do the right thing. That's what the Court wants to do. But to me as a person, I would have thought and my thought and belief is and would have been that considering the way things are in the country, it would be nice to allow the presidential election tribunal to be as like. Let's talk about the role of INEC in all of this because many of these petitions are against INEC. And you and I were here during the elections with the issues with the upload of results and some of the behavior of INEC officials and some things that happened in different areas across the country. INEC, of course, through its lawyer had during that session said that they had confidence that they will be able to work in consonants with the tribunal to bring justice to all the petitions that are before it. But again, do you see INEC being as plain as possible being that there's also been allegations that some of the results that have been uploaded to INEC's portal is not the same as the results that were gotten at the polling units. These are some of the issues that will be raised.  Okay. I think the everything or anything that has to do with uploading of results from IRS and the intricacies of the election, it will not be like this because it's already before the court. It is one of the things that the court will decide. It will be the position of the court to decide whether or not the results that have been uploaded to IRS should be the concerns which should be allowed from part of the election. But all I will tell you is, let's wait and see. Finally, there's never been a precedence in this country where a tribunal unsat a presidential candidate for no reason or for any reason to talk of. So what should we be expecting? I was saying that we should pre-empt of course the tribunal, but looking at the antecedents of all these tribunals that we've had in election tribunals, should we be hoping upon a star or is it going to be business as usual? I think a good beginning to a story, a good beginning to a story, let's also hope and see. I want to believe and I am very sure that this, the just judiciary will come. Every Nigerian, every Nigerian brought up. Let's hope, let's hope that the judiciary will come to light. And the people who have preceded and preceded them have shown that tribunals or tribunals have never decided to or have come to a death. But like I said, a good beginning, let's also hope and see. We are confident that the judiciary will come to light. We apologize for that break, but this is where we say our goodbyes. Apologies to our guests. Boris Albina is a legal practitioner and he was speaking to us live from Lagos. My name is Mary Annakul and that's the show tonight. Thank you for watching. See you tomorrow.


Greetings and welcome to the introduction to astronomy. In this lecture we are going to begin our discussion of the outer planets. We've looked, previous lectures, looked at the inner terrestrial type planets, those similar to Earth. Now we're going to look at planets that are very different than our own. So let's look at these in an overview here. What do we know about the Jovian planets? Well, we know that they're larger. We know that they're composed of ice and gas primarily, and those ices that include things like water, ammonia, and methane. So it does not mean just water ice. And while they are much larger than the terrestrial planets, you could fit all of the terrestrial planets with inside Neptune. Still, they are incredibly tiny as you see here relative to the Sun. These have no solid surface. There is no way we will ever land on these. These will never be landed on because there is no place to land. However, we can land on their moons, and we will look at the planets and their moons in coming lectures. So let's look a little bit about what these planets are made up of, and it's different than what we looked at in the inner solar system. If we're looking by mass then hydrogen makes up 75% and helium 24%. If we go by number, it's more like 90% and 10%. So because the helium atom is more massive, it contributes more to the mass, but the hydrogen atom by number, if you pick an atom at random out of Jupiter, for example, you got a 9 in 10 chance that it will be a hydrogen atom. So we also again have traces of the ices, water, methane, and ammonia, and yes there is a small amount of rock and metal, but it's very small percentage that we will see of those. And the only reason the percentage is so high is again because they're heavier. They are much more massive, so they'll get weighted a lot higher when we look at the measurements by mass. Now let's look briefly at each of these planets. Let's start off with Jupiter, which is the largest of the giant planets and is the largest planet in the solar system. As you recall, we put these relative to Earth, so instead of giving you a diameter in kilometers, we say that it is 11 times Earth's diameter, meaning that you could fit 11 Earths across Jupiter. Its mass is 318 times Earth's mass. So if you could take 318 Earths, you would need that much to make one Jupiter. Its rotation period is incredibly short at 9 hours and 55 minutes. That is the fastest rotation of any planet in the solar system, and it's less than 10 hours. So if you could somehow sit in the atmosphere of Jupiter and rotate around with it, the sun would rise and 5 hours later it would set and 5 hours later it would rise again. The orbital period is nearly 12 years and the semi-major axis, 5 astronomical units, 5 times further away from the sun than Earth, its density a little greater than the density of water. So it has some very dense interior, but it has very low density gases on the exterior that average it out to be a very low density overall. Now we're going to see that Saturn is a little bit smaller, but has some similarities here. Saturn being the ringed planet, its diameter about a little less than 10 times Earth's diameter, and its mass about 95 times Earth's mass. Its rotational period is a little bit longer than Jupiter's, and its orbital period is a lot longer, going to 30 years from 12. It is nearly twice as far away from the sun as Jupiter is, and its density is even less. Its density is less than that of water, meaning that if you had something full of water large enough and could somehow set Saturn in it, Saturn would float. So it is less dense than water. Next we look at the two icy planets, and those are Uranus, which was discovered in 1781. So we have the first planets now that were discovered, and this is the planet that lies on its side. It is 4 times Earth's diameter, 14.5 times Earth's mass, so much smaller than Jupiter and Saturn. Its rotational period is getting back closer to Earth at 17 hours, and its orbital period of 84 years. So one year on Uranus would be 84 Earth years. Semi-major axis would be almost 20 astronomical units, and the density has increased a little bit. We're back to about the density that Jupiter had. And then finally we have Neptune. Neptune discovered in 1846, and it is the most distant planet. It is about the same size and mass as Uranus. Its rotational period is also similar, but its orbital period, of course, being further away, 30 astronomical units instead of 20, means it takes much, much longer to go around the sun once. 165 years. So since it was discovered, it is just starting its second orbit. So it's gotten back to where it started in its orbit, and it is just starting to work the first few years of its second orbit around the sun since it has been discovered. And its density, again, is comparable to Uranus and Jupiter's. Now all of these planets have been explored by spacecraft. Each has been visited by at least once. Jupiter and Saturn have had orbiting spacecraft, and around Jupiter we had the Galileo mission, and we have the Juno mission, which is ongoing. These were both orbiting missions, and around Saturn we had the Cassini mission. So those are orbiting missions. The rest of these were all flybys, and some of them were flybys to go someplace else. For example Cassini flew by Jupiter and used its gravity to help it onto Saturn. You'll see that Voyager 2 went from Jupiter to Saturn, to Uranus, and to Neptune. So the Voyager 2 craft visited all four planets, and is the only craft to visit Uranus and Neptune. So all of our detailed images of those come from the Voyager 2 spacecraft, which was able to make a grand tour of the solar system because of the alignment, the positioning of the planets in the solar system, when that craft was launched in the late 1970s. So each of them has been explored to varying extent. Jupiter and Saturn pretty well. Uranus and Neptune just a little bit. So what do we know? What else have we done with exploration? We've done a few more things, too, than just those. The Galileo spacecraft actually had a probe into Jupiter's atmosphere. So a probe that went into the atmosphere doesn't last very long. It will quickly heat up, and the pressures and temperatures will vaporize it. But we were able to get some measurements of the atmosphere as it plunged deep into Jupiter. Or at least the upper layers of the atmosphere. Then there is Juno, which is studying the polar regions of Jupiter. This is currently, as of this recording, an active satellite around Jupiter. It is in a polar orbit, meaning that it goes up and over the poles instead of around the equatorial regions. So we can see a little bit about what it sees here, and it sees a little bit different than what we're used to seeing in the equatorial regions of Jupiter. Very interesting patterns of storms that occur in those in the polar regions. And this is really the first time we've gotten to get good looks at these storms. Most of the other craft have come in the equatorial plane and given us great views of the equatorial regions with its banding structure, but not so much a good look at the poles. Juno is also in a highly elliptical orbit, meaning that it zips in close to Jupiter, comes in close, takes a quick look at it, and then heads back out. Remember Kepler's second law, and what that says is that the closer you are to the object, the faster you're going to move. So when it comes in close to Jupiter, it zips by and gets a few up close pictures, then gets out of there. Jupiter being very intense, massive, massive and intense, has a lot of radiation near it, so it doesn't want to spend a lot of time there, and it spends most of its time well away from Jupiter, but passes around to be able to get some close up shots. Then we have the Cassini spacecraft, which discovered a polar hexagon on Saturn. So a hexagonal pattern, unusual when we look at things in the universe. Usually we get things that are spherical, elliptical, ellipsoidal shaped, but some kind of really smooth curve like that. To get a hexagon, we tend not to see that. We don't see things like triangles or squares very often. Those would be very unusual. So the polar hexagon is something interesting that Cassini was able to find, and may have something to do with the fluid mechanics in the atmosphere near Saturn's pole. So we are going to look at all of these in a little bit more detail in coming lectures, but let's go ahead and finish up here with our summary. And what we looked at is the terrestrial planets that we've been studying are quite different than the Jovian planets that we are going to look at now. The properties are very different, but each of these has its own unique characteristics. So there are similarities between them, but there are also differences. Each of these has been visited by spacecraft, but to a much smaller extent than the number that we talked about for Mars and Venus. So that concludes this lecture on the overview of the giant planets. We'll be back again next time for another topic in astronomy. So until then, have a great day everyone, and I will see you in class.


Hello and welcome back to The Craft Box Man, I'm Renandro and Finn and today, we're on episode 60 of the Roach 100 series. Episode 60, oh my god. Today we are in the plaza of conquests, still if you haven't checked out last episode, go do that right now. So, you've come to learn the greatest of arts, the art of war. You don't look very impressive but I'm hoping that you've got some hidden reserve of strength. I'm the master of defense here in Dragon Spire. I teach the means of protection. A shield is just as much a weapon as this sword. You need to think of defensive magic as another form of attack, aimed at your false attack. You can't rely at all on one kind of defense.  You must be quick to change tactics based on what is happening in the battle. Think of it as a game of battle ball. Your shield must always be moving to reflect back the attack I could spend years teaching you about defense, but time is short. If you haven't grasped the basics, you're hopeless. Meet me in my tower and we'll see what you've picked up. Okay, let's go and defeat Marvara. Don't get cocky, young wizard. You've learned the art of the attack, but what happens when you cannot land an attack on your opponent? Defense is the key to survival. Defend yourself. Okay, I'm doing the running man. Cobra. Cobra, cobra, cobra. Okay, let's play. At night, I think of you. Can you kill the protection pox? Yeah. Cool. What's happening? I've chosen my card. Your internet must be lagging or something. Probably. It's just that I passed even though I didn't really understand how much it hurts to me when you don't know a God. Yeah, that's why I said kill the protection pox because they're annoying. They shield a lot.  I wonder, is that because they're called protection? Yeah, that is because they're called protection pox. Okay, let's do this amazing feint. Oh, cheeky life player there. Cheeky. Cheeky cheeky.  They literally shield each other, so cute. Couple goals. Goals. I know, right? This is actually goals. They have not protected themselves from me. I know. They're pretty bad. I just card you and you, and we're going to bloodstom. I'll enchant you. We're going to bloodstom. Yo, yo, yo, it's your boy, Dave Vlogs.  Hey, Brute. Yeah. Are you triggered by that move? Yeah, he did. What moves did he do?  You did call! Oh well. Hashtag life moves forwards, you know. At least you're not weakness-ing. Might have just jinxed myself there. Really, I had to hit storms in that. Probably. Damn it. Triggered. Very triggered. I can't kill this guy. I can't kill either. Let's just sand storm. It's a douche. It's a douche. So here comes. Damage over time, plus. This battle is actually hard. It's just... Do you want some more shields or is that...  I'm trying to get there, dude. But someone doesn't want to kill the protection pox.  I'm lucky. I'm going to have to reshuffle soon. Just to get blades. Damage over time. Oh, of course you would do that. Absorb. Oh, spirit armor. You absolute... Tosser. You have to use death against that because that passes it. Okay, I can do that. I can do that. I can definitely do that. Yeah, I just have to go for it, you know. One blade, but that's fine. I'm so triggered. That's still a lot of damage on there. He's dead, which is good. And I just destroyed the Absorb, so that's fine. Wow. Amazing. That's actually good damage. Not really. Do you want a heal? Yeah, please. Like, not really. Kill me please. Okay, I'll do another sandstorm. Because that kind of worked. Somehow. Are you going to sandstorm now? I can't. I've got two perps on. Okay, and that has to attack. And then heal. Yeah, do that. Do that. Do you want me to attack? Do you want me to attack the boss? Might as well, to be honest. Just get him out. Like, I can't do any damage to the protection pox, but, you know, if the boss is out, it's kind of okay. Oh, she doesn't ever shield up me. Blah. Blah. Okay. A riffarone. I'm definitely going to have to reshuffle then. Actually reshuffle or risk a spectral blast. There's blade and spectral blast. Why not? Cheeky 47 damage there. Yep. And of course, you shield again. What a surprise. Oh, and I didn't get a powerpuff there. I'm lucky.  Oh, no, he didn't. That's good. Hit ice, plus.  Yeah, that's a good idea. I have, like, 33% chance of it hitting ice, and it hit fire. Of course it did. Still killed. That's good. Okay, that was easy. Just kidding, that was quite hard. I enjoyed that beetle a little bit. Oh yeah, just a little bit. I mean, it wasn't hard fighting-wise, but just frustrating. It's like fighting PvP'ing you. Frustrating, thanks. Put another shield up. Yeah. I'm impressed. Instinct for saving your own hide. That's a good thing. Surviving a battle is the most important part. Talk to Leslo. Leslo, sugar cane. The master of defense is a harsh task, master. But if you're here now, it means you learned something. Good. You're not finished yet, though. Even the strongest warrior cannot squeeze blood from a stone, but a student to his wise can get knowledge from a statue. This statue is one of our greatest enemies, Geroch Shalehart. He and his army of earth elementals fought our armies to a standstill on the plain of shattered shields, and for that we honor him among our own. You must summon and defeat Geroch's greatest champion in combat to show that you are capable of upholding the proud military. Go to the crystal stand and place this crystal upon it. Concentrate for a moment. When it's stored within it will then manifest in physical form. Okay. Do you want to come over here before I summon it? So you can use the crystal as well? No, it doesn't. I'm doing it now. It kind of is a secret, Brenton. No, it doesn't. See, I can come in. What you talking about, Fam? What you talking about, Willis? Yeah, pretty much. I'm going to summon it just for LOL. I'm going to reflip to see if I can summon it. Okay. It's about 7000. Okay. I am going to put it on a fame now. Okay. Okay, let's do this. This should be not too hard. 7800 much. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 278, you're dead, man. You're dying. So you're dead? You're dying. You've got a phantom on this, right? Yeah, I said that. How she was? Nope, okay. Okay, game. You can hate me. That's fine. Oh, Miss, what's this? Oh, Cyclops. No! Cheeky. Getting to the point where I might need to heal myself. You might. Trying to look for my other faint. Once I've got my other faint, I'll probably not judgment. I was going to judgment, but I probably won't. I'll probably just do a spectral blast. Yeah, I might have to spectral blast. I could probably hit for mass at the moment, probably. No, his life. Yeah, but I've got a vampire. But he's got a death shield, minus 80. True death, actually. Cheeky. So, probably not. May not kill. But we'll try it, you know. See how it goes. Storm? Nope, fire. Okay. That's fine. You can hit if you want now. Yeah! Are you going to hurt, or? I am. Yeah. He's going to die. Not quite, but he's going to die.  Stop it, I don't like it. It did like nothing. Cheeky. I'll live for food. 99 damage, amazing. I need to, if I can get those deal shields off, I'd be all good. Okay, I'm fainting again. I'm going to finger myself. No! No! You're bad. I can't even finger myself. I'm triggered. I know. I'm not cutting it out, though. Actually, I might cut out this whole battle. Why? Because it's like boring. Oh, you're going to faint on. I'm hurting now. Okay. Hopefully it hits Storm. I will... Kill myself. Yeah, we'll be lady. We'll be lady. We'll be lady. Hi. 1905, congrats. That's like your whole health. Nice, congrats. It would have been less if it was Storm, but that's fine. Heya! Cheeky, we hurt there. Solid 98 or 99 damage, I didn't quite see it. I knew it had another 9 or 8 or something. Really a weakness, that's rude. Unlucky. Just kidding, I have a judgement to give that off. Hello! Hello! 300 damage, that's still pretty good. Oh, the stun. But what, you're immune? Oh no, you're not, that's good. Cheeky. My pet is OP. Okay, 2-0-P-5-E. 2-0-P-5-E. He's got 700 health. That did 300. With a weakness. I'm going to judge and do mass. Fire, what? Meteor strike, what? What is this hacks? Oh no, I'm going to wait one more round before I judge. I'm a half-bet human being. Ooh, 4-3. 71 health-bet. Amazing. Blap. Lipricorn. He's cool, isn't he? It's not what it sounds like, that's alright. I didn't say it was. Let's see if this kills. If it doesn't, then... Well, here we go. Yay, we did it. I'll badge elemental banisher. Cool, I didn't. I've obviously killed more elementals than me. Excellent. Why is mine? He was among Gerox's greatest warriors. I fought him to a standstill on the battlefield and now you put him in his place. I'm still my hero. Okay, where are you? Where are you? I think we have to run all the way there, that's unlucky. It's a bit cheeky. Let's run this way. A fire blossom. Okay. Okay. I'm there if you want to port. I'm also there. He's gonna trap us. He's gonna trap us. This might sting a little. Okay, let's go. This shouldn't be too hard. We said that afterwards. He's gonna put traps on us. That's fine though. We're gonna beat you with our own traps. Yeah. Okay. I'm gonna faint him twice. Blade and then sandstorm. That's my plan for this. Okay. I guess I'll take out the damage box. I'm blade storming. I mean sandstorming. Are you kidding me? You can take out that one. That has a shield if you want. That cheeky shield. First tower-shelving box confirmed. See, I can use traps. Choose one on you. You get shrieked, son. Yeah, pretty much. What's this? Oh, a weakness thinks it's good. It's not. Oh, a blade thinks it's good. Oh, a blade thinks it's good. Pretty good. Boop. Nice wee blade there. What's this? What are those? Oh, that's what one took. 47 damage. Pretty good. Taking off the tower shield. Yeah. That's why it's pretty lit, fam. I need more blades. That's a nice fizzle there. That's a nice trap there. That's a nice blade there. That's a nice pass. Ooh, that's a nice life blade. Cheers, fam. Cheers, fam. Cheers, fam. I appreciate it lots. I appreciate that. It's only, it's only useless at the moment. Like when I get spells like Chimera. Chimera. Whatever you say it. I need that blade, man. Cheeky wee vampire there. I saw that. I like a good vampire, dude. Who did you do it on? Not the guy you think I've hit it on. Let's see if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Probably a good thing. And it is a good thing. No, but it's only a fizzle. Unlucky. Unlucky. Unlucky, champ. Sin Stoom. Sin Stoom. Did you read Sin Stoom? Oh my god. I'm dead. I still lost us. I'm dead here, jeez. I'm dead. This could quite be a big damage if you didn't resist. I'm dead, man.  You better have those heals, fam. That was pretty bad, messed down. You better have those heals, fam. And at 611 health, then you'd better heal. Hopefully he doesn't kill. Didn't quite kill him. Didn't kill. Why would it be there if I didn't kill? Why would it be there if I killed, I should say? You said I couldn't heal. Yeah well then we wouldn't have to heal because I could just use a potion.   I don't know what you're going to do. These pit things don't attack and he only had one thing. But you never know, he could have killed me with that. He could have done something really okay. He could have elucidated the fucking, I don't know, one of those again and done like mesh damage. And crit, you know? You never know. And the crit. Yeah you didn't know. No no no. Let us pray that I can kill. You can kill? No I can't, they're balanced. I can kill? Well kill one then. What are you waiting for? War. These guys don't hit so just kill. What is it good for? Please. Now these guys are just being in nuisance because they're still alive. I don't think they've got people hitting for them. They don't. Because not a lot of people choose the balanced skill. The balanced skill is a legit skill that is really good. Yeah but not a lot of people choose it. Yeah they do. Why wouldn't they choose it? It's great for PvP. You can hit, you can solo easily. You get decent damage. It's nowhere near as good as the skews like life is better. I would disagree with that to be honest. Hey! Balance of very versatile skill. Life's quite versatile. You can't really hit. My centaur is OP. PvP with life is pretty bad.  But like I would prefer to battle than just be pretty ranking.  That's about it. What do the balance do? They can hit. They can fizzle. They can um they can blade. They can trap. They can do everything. They can minion. They can heal. That boosts. That was great. You're welcome. That's what I found. Go back up to your prime house. Can I get a fit in? No, it's yellow ticks. Do you like dead? Nope. No? You can't like banter. You can write fat. What about fat with pH? Probably not. Yeah you can actually. Yeah. That's funny. Okay. Let us talk to this guy again. That wasn't too hard actually that battle.  You'll surprise me. I figured you'd fold like a piece of origami. Instead you handled yourself like a warrior born. Take these lessons to heart. Should we end the episode after this? No, we're finishing off this straight. You've made it back. So apparently you've learned something. Now that you've been through strategy bootcamp, it's time for your next challenge. This is a straight? Yeah. You've yet to face our first great foe. The greatest champion of Dranak, the Shrouded Wizard's army. This very champion fought his way all the way to the throne of Dranak's father to claim it for his lord Dranak. Show me that you will fight for Dranak's father and all it stands for. Use the skills you've been taught and use a crystal to summon Dranak's father and show him what you're made of. You can't compare it to anything because it's unique. You can compare anything you want to compare. You just need evidence to back it up. You might want to come over to me before I summon the thing. The sea lord. Come on. You know, we don't have much longer in this straight. We've literally got two quests to go. And one of them is just talking to a random guy elsewhere. Go! You need a summon. I got pulled. Flee and port to me. Because I'm not fighting this twice. It's kind of good. Oh, that was... both amazing and horrible at the same time. You're just bad. Get some mana and port to me. You coming? Oh, that was kind of amazing. Nice work there, you know. Use the crystal. I'll get him out of your way. Now you get to defeat the sea lord. Yes, he's got 8000 health. Yikes! That cheeky pass there, though. What is he doing? He's saving up something. Tell him why we still have a chance. Yes, that's why I'm double fainting. Double faint, couple blades, and then a judgement. I think that should be good.   I'm just going to go and hit some bitches. Yeah, pretty much. This is what he was saving up for. He's got an adult mass. I'm telling you right now, 630, that was a lot. I have a bully channel.  You can actually hit this one. Do you want me to hurt him? No. You're not wasting your time.    Yes, T.Y. T.Y. You are welcome, mate. Sounds so kind. Fizzle, cheeky. Cheeky fizz there. Be bad. Cheeky fizzle. Okay. What should I hit? Judgment or spectral blast? I've got the hiccups. I don't know. Are you blading? Yeah, like, of course I'm blading.  Can't do that if I'm, like, bad. Oh, thanks. Hopefully, we're hitting this round. Otherwise, I used it too early. No, I'm blading again. Sorry. That's fine. Well-ish. Died. I was actually going to hit if I didn't get a blade, but I got a blade. So, that's unfortunate. I'm lucky. Oh well. And we see if, like, 0% chance of fizzling. I already had 0% chance of fizzling, but that's fine. Yeah, but now you have a 0- 20% chance of fizzling. Yeah. I had a 100%, a 120% chance to not fizzle. Are you hitting? No. I'm blading. Okay. Strategic pass. Yes. Okay, I want you to center when I hit, which will probably be next round. Oh, correct.  Didn't this? 0 damage. 520. Are you hitting? Yeah. Chewfam. Because, you know, I'm probably going to hit Storm. What did I tell you? You did. Oh, what a man. Still did 1,000. That's pretty decent. I used all those blades for Storm. Dammit. But I nearly did more than you, so you can't yell at me. Yeah, but you had the faints in, like, 8,000 ways. He had minus 80% resist. And I have 1 PS. So he has 79% resist. Oh, f**king damage every time. You would have killed him if he didn't have any PS. Yep, that's what they all say. That's true, though. Actually true. Strategic pass. Oh, yeah. Strategic blade. Question mark. Strategic fizzle. Yeah. Strategic fizzles. Too lit, too quit. Hopefully this hits Fire or Ice. And not Storm. But you never know, it might hit Storm. But no, my luck it probably won't now, since I only have one blade. Nope. It's a new Storm. That's fine. It's really not being your world, has it? Oh, f**k! You spoke too soon for me. I think it's like this world, man, it's like something against us. It's just RNG. I'm not worried.  He might not.  He's got 4,000 health left. I can always save all my pips for OP judgment. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you can hit as well, but you do know that, right? No, I don't know. I don't know if I can hit. Oh, you can.  I'm lucky. Yeah, we can't hit Storm. That's true. I don't quite see your logic in that remark, but that's fine. Hey. I try my best. A thunder snake! 105 damage. Be careful.  You might want them heroes. I actually might. Let's see if it's going to hit Storm for a third time in a row. Probably will. Honestly, wouldn't be surprised. They did. Oh, god damn. At least I'm doing damage, fam. I've done more damage. I knew this round. Quite. Probably not, actually. I have. I hit a boost, a bladed Centaur, a serif, and then a non-bladed Centaur. You fizzled a serif. I did fizzle the serif. You've hit it twice, and I've hit it like three times. Four times now. I'm going to get fingered by god. See, that's not Storm. It's god! Amazing. I actually like that. It's a good spell. It makes my whole life easier. I'm getting down in the dumps. Yeah, you are. You've been doing too much damage. Get down! I'm too lit to quit. I'm just mass passing now to get lots of pips. To kill them. Okay. With judgement. I have to mass pass as well. To get pips. Yep. Everyone's just passing, it's great. You didn't have to reshuffle me, man. I could have done that myself. I did it for you. Because I couldn't be bothered. You just wasted a treasure card. Whereas I didn't have to waste a treasure card to do that. But... It's okay. No, it isn't. Now you've made my thing messy. I was going to kill. I didn't need a reshuffle. I'm trolling. It's not funny.  No, it isn't. It's really good. Also, there's no way to get out of cards either. So...  No. How do you get a free reshuffle then? I get stunned, boy. I trained reshuffle. I don't get a free one. I never said I got a free reshuffle. I'm just saying you had to spend money on your reshuffle. Where I had to... like, spend no training points on it. And I do it for less pips as well. But you know... But next round... But next round, he's dead. So, you know... You got feints in your deck. So it's okay. I don't know if I'm okay. Maybe I just continue to feint until you're dead. No! That sounds fun. Don't do that! Why not? I will actually have a few feints again. I don't have three feints. I'm not that pro. I don't carry two set feints. Official Woods player. Ace ticker. Rap! Buccaroni. Okay. Leslo. Now it was a longer fight than I thought it was going to be. Same. It's because I kept hitting Storm. You know. He's at 33% chance. Hates me. You defeated him. I met a loss, actually. It took a league of dragonspires, wizards and warriors to defeat him when he breached the throne room of dragonspire. I did not think it's possible that you could have done so much on your own. But now that I've seen your power, I think you are the one we've been waiting for. I hid the last purple stone in Lord Moro's vault of the Great Chasm during the Titan Army's assault. The librarian should help you find it. Once you've recovered it from there, bring it back and I'll activate it for you. Okay. Let's hit over to the library and then we will end the episode. Serious drink. Yeah, serious. So serious. Serious because he's serious. Yep, pretty much. Okie dokie. Hey, let's hit him to the library. Hey, library. You need to find something within the Great Cousin? Oh my. You might want to consider other options. It's rather dangerous, you know. Well, it's not my place to keep students from risking their lives. So I'll tell you what I know. Unfortunately, that's very little when it comes to the geography of the Great Cousin. I can tell you, however, that the last I heard there was someone there who may be of help. Seek Belia Windgazer out within the Great Cousin. She'll help you find what you see. Okie dokie. So, next episode we will be going into the Grand Cousin. And yeah, so thank you for watching. Remember to leave a like, subscribe, and press the ding-a-ling so you know exactly when the next episode comes out. And remember, craft it outside the box. Goodbye.


Okay. So, hello everyone. I'm Katarina Kosovel. I'm a PhD student of Nadia Lkazhagar at the University of Ljubljana and I will present a small part of my research that was done in collaboration with Franco-Multenian Fred Kuczarski. The title is Propagation of Tropical Hitting perturbations to the mid-latitudes and the role of photography. I will start shortly with motivation. Then I will describe the methodology and the results will be presented in two parts. So, for the short-term response and then for the medium-term response, I will briefly look at the role of photography and then summarize. The motivation for my studies is that tropical processes strongly influence mid-latitude weather processes in the medium range and longer forecasts and at the same time analysis uncertainties and short-range forecast errors are largest in the tropics. They are shown to be associated with both balanced and unbalanced circulation across all spatial scales. Little is known about the impact of the tropical analysis uncertainties on the growth of forecast errors in the mid-latitudes. The perturbations in diabetic hitting in the tropics have long-term impact on the forecast of the mid-latitude circulation. So, we aim to quantify the role of unbalanced component of the large-scale circulation response to these perturbations in the tropics and their propagation outside of the tropics. For the experiment, we ran a speedy model and we did an ensemble. Here is the sketch how we did it. So, we had a continuous ampertert run for 32 years and every 1st January for the third year on, the model was restarted with continuous additional heating perturbation and then run for three months. So, we got 30 ensemble members in northern hemisphere winter. This plot shows how the heating perturbation at 500 hPa looks like. It has random component in it, so this is averaged over 90 days. Heating perturbation was adopted from unpublished research of Franco-Multanian Fred Kucharski. Daily mean outputs were analysed with modes decomposition. Modes decomposition works through the projection of fields in physical space to the model space and the circulation is split in balanced and unbalanced components and defined in terms of Eigen solutions of the linearized primitive equations. The balanced part consists of quasi-geostropic cross- bewaves and the unbalanced part projects on to the inertial gravity Eigen solutions that propagate either westward or eastward. We don't need to go that much into details about inertia gravity waves for my research, so we will just say that inertia gravity modes are actually unbalanced modes. The composition software was developed at the University of Ljubljana. More info on it you can get on this web page or come and ask me after. On the web page you can also get the software and browse through the decomposition products of the ECMWF forecasts, such as maps of balanced and unbalanced circulations in tropics and extra tropics, and you can also look at this kind of global energy spectra. This is just an example. How this decomposition works. This is an example. This is one random example filled from our experiment showing geopotential height perturbations and winds, and we can split this field to balanced and unbalanced part. Balanced part is stronger, unbalanced part is weaker, but unbalanced part is important in tropics. Advantage of this decomposition is that you can easily get easy direct access to the unbalanced part. Both can be further split into the particular modes. Balanced part is actually a sum of many Rosby waves. We have three examples here. The Rosby N-N-Wave is more or less confined to tropics, but the others have minimum and maximum in mid-latitudes, and what is important here is that odd modes are symmetric regarding equator and even modes are anti-symmetric. In the unbalanced part the most energetic mode is Kelvin mode and the remaining unbalanced mode are just weaker and I won't go more into details with them. Now we should focus on our experiment. In the first few days the response is mostly to the tropical heating is mostly confined to tropics, and then after the first few days the Rosby wave train forms in mid-latitudes and the perturbations start to propagate around the mid-latitude in a circle. So first I will show an example for short-term response. The total response has been substantially studied in the past. So what we see here is a barotropic beginning of the Rosby wave train that is entering to mid-latitudes and then we have a baroclinic response in tropics that is mainly in the source region and it looks like it consists of Kelvin wave and Rosby N-1. But for confirmation we can look at the composition. The Rosby wave train goes to the balanced part and what looked like a Rosby N-1 wave is also here in the balanced part. We can look at this Rosby N mode separately and we see that the strongest minima and also the other maxima smaller are approximately collocated with minima and maxima in the total balance in the whole balanced response, but they are modified with higher modes. What looked like a Kelvin wave in the total field is actually partly balanced and partly unbalanced, but the unbalanced part itself is to a large extent Kelvin mode. So now to the medium-term response. In the medium-term response this is example for day 14 and just note that the scale for geopotential height perturbations is not the same anymore. The strongest response is in northern hemisphere Rosby wave train, but there is also a weaker Rosby wave train in the southern hemisphere. As the those Rosby wave trains project to the balanced part, balanced part is actually pretty similar to the total except for the tropics and as we can already guess the remaining part is in unbalanced. Looking back to the balanced part, we see that we have here a pattern that resembles again to this Rosby N1 mode and we see that this minima is actually at least partially but to quite some extent Rosby N1 mode. And if I put here the Kelvin mode which is the second important mode in the tropics, we see that even though we are now in day 14, they're still confined to the close to the region, the source region where we have this heating. And if we compare the location to day 3, we see that they practically didn't move out. Actually, we didn't look much on this but we suspect that it's because of the dipolar structure of the heating that we used. Okay. As the tropical response is more or less confined to the source region in the northern hemisphere, in mid-latitudes in general the perturbations do propagate eastward. And as we know in northern hemisphere, the general circulation in the mid-latitudes is very much influenced by the orography, especially the jets. So the logical question was how this orography influenced the path of the perturbations. And we did three additional experiments where the only difference between the main experiments, now the reference experiment and those three, were that part of the northern hemisphere orography was just lower to the maximum 100 meters. The first one was without Himalaya and Tibet. The second one was without Rakis and Greenland. And the third one was the combinations of both. So somehow expected result was that in mid-latitudes the intensity and propagation of Rosby wave train are affected by the large scourography. But rather than showing these plots, I will show something else. As modes decomposition is actually linear and orthogonal, we can do statistics in modal space and get some additional information on what's going on. So these four plots show the variance in a spectral space. This one is the reference with orography and then we have another three. Meridional modes, those numbers just represent the Rosby waves I showed at the beginning. This is all for balanced modes because in mid-latitudes the Rosby wave train, as I showed, projects to the balanced part. And zonal wave numbers just tell us how many waves we have around the globe in zonal direction. So we are interested in mid-latitudes. So we are interested on the modes with the numbers two and more because N1 is in tropics. What we see is that removing orography actually reduces the variability in meridional mode too, which is anti-symmetric regarding equator. But it increases variability in odd modes, those that are symmetric regarding equator. This actually shows that the hemispheric differences are reduced. And the other thing is that with removing orography we have more variability in meridional mode. Three, zonal wave number four. This is actually just the pattern of a Rosby wave train in the mid-latitudes with the zonal wave number four. This is where the most variability is in when we remove orography. So I presented a novel method for the decomposition of 3D global circulation to the balanced and unbalanced component. And it has been applied to diagnose a global response to tropical heating perturbations. In tropics the balanced and unbalanced components of the response have comparable amplitudes. Circulation response is confined close to the heating source, which is possibly due to the dipole structure of the heating. And the mid-latitudinal response consists of balanced Rosby wave train. Removal of orography increases the variability in symmetric Rosby modes and the largest variability appears in Rosby modes three at zonal wave number four.


The app that we just made all that money on is DK, and I'm back. I'm back again to show you how to get these dividends and win, baby. Guess what? Today we had another, we had another 500 plus dollar day today. And guess what else? We made the most money we've ever made off of this one app, baby. We're out there and got to that money, no cap. I do want to tell you guys this.  Now, we do have two orders to pick up from Home Depot. We're trying to stack these chips like Pringles. The first order we're picking up a refrigerator. We're driving, no, it's actually a freezer. We're picking up a freezer, driving six miles for forty six seventy four but to pull up and it's going to get dull. And then order number two, getting this money is what we're about to do. We have another order at Home Depot. We are going to pick up a mirror closet door. We're going to drive 11 miles for forty nine ninety. We're about to get to this money and hopefully it's time to let's go. And we are here at our favorite place to be till we get this cheese. Good morning. So Friday or Saturday, when I came in here, you weren't here and everything was chaotic. I don't know what's going on. Everything is going crazy. She's they couldn't find a word. It was all type of stuff going on. Morning. So I have two road orders to pick up. The first one is W.M. Fifty four, eighty five, sixty seven, thirty nine. And the second one is H. Nineteen, forty one, twenty one, ninety five, forty eight. So it's this one. Yeah, I don't want to get a car for them. Oh, yeah, that's going. Yeah, definitely. What is that? A door?  Closet door. So it is this one right here. It ain't that bad. I'm going to put my foot on this one. I can put it in my van. It's OK. I'm going to slide it in, Paul. Yeah, I don't see what's going on, baby. Let's slide this joint in so we go ahead and get it in to get these dividends. Paul, let me see Paul right now. Yeah, you can not get in. I do have to be careful with this because it is glass. I don't know what side is glass. I think it's in the middle. I'm going to shut this joint down. It's like I'm playing around. If you can't do a clap. We got to go, baby. Now we about to go back inside, get that one and then we're going to slide. Let's go, you guys have a good one. We got everything strapped up. Now it's time for us to go get buck. Let's go. It's like that. We are here to draw up this. Put me in the freezer because I'm so ice. We have to go in this freezer, baby. We got the dolly out. We want the money enough to come out. Laying back.  We're going to put that right there. Now we got to step back in with the photo. Yarnado, smack. We gone. Hey, how's it going, sir? I'm here with your Home Depot order. Yeah, I'm right outside. 1420, correct? Okay, I'm here. So I left it by your garage, but I could bring it to the front door if you can help me because I didn't have any weight. I had a dolly. I didn't have any way to take it over there. Or I can leave it here. It's really up to you. Okay. Yeah, that's fine. I'll help you put it in the garage. Yes. All righty, bye-bye. No problem, bye-bye. I ain't allowed to take this down like this, though. I'm about to take it back to the stout, oh. No, I absolutely didn't. So you have, you own both houses? Oh, smart man. So you're rehabbing this one? Dang, that's pretty cool. I'm a real estate agent, so I understand. I wait for you to open this garage. I heard the dog barking. I heard the dog barking. I was thinking that you was coming up this house. I got a guy who lives here. Oh, okay. So he had to do a tenant. Yep. Ain't got money. Yeah, I know it. It's good and bad, but make sure, I know you get there just some time, boy. I know how it goes. Oh, I appreciate it. I just had to get some new ones and some steel tools. You mean them, right? Yeah, okay. This is where the weather comes. Yeah, I had to have you just put your name. You could close the garage and everything, though. I got to hit him with the photo. Sit back in with the photos. You got that? That one? Yep. And then, and you could just type your name in there. First and last name in there. Nine minutes to go. Thank you very much, sir. Order number three. It's time for us to pull up and get some more cheese. We had a load from the carrier company. We have three pallets to pick up that weighs 300 pounds.  We got to pick up the prize and drive. Let's go. Guess what? We're here now, you old noobs. Got a couple points, trucks, a couple old schools. We're here to pick up, baby. We're here to pick up so we can get bucks. How you doing, boss? I'm here to pick up the loads to go to Warrich. Y'all already know what time it is, baby. We're about to get it right. I need to sign or I'm good? Okay, let me get the green tux. Okay, I need to sign. What? Sheesh. I keep one? Yes, this one. I just gotta put this inside. Okay, thank you. And as you guys can see, we got one strap, two strap, three straps. It's time for us to get to this money. No cap, let's go. We are here at the drop off.  Kinda ball like hot sauce. What's going on with you, boss? I got a drop off for you guys coming from El Grove. How you doing today? Pretty good, yourself? I'm living a dream. I woke up this morning. I can't complain. Nope, neither. If I did, I'd be lying. And guess what? Don't nobody care anyway. Don't nobody care. That's what you think. Really? You think people care? Won't family. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That makes sense. That makes sense. That makes sense. That makes sense.   Maybe you're some cousin. Yeah. You should have family. Yeah. Right. You left it? Nope. Not yet. I'll be thinking about it then. I'll be like, huh? Too much. I don't know. Maybe one day. I love kids, though. Oh, everybody loves what you have. That's what you have. That's what everybody say. We don't do it. We don't do it. No. Honestly, it's nice. You got somebody to look forward to being homeless. Yeah. You want me to take these off right quick? Oh, you good? Oh, you a pro. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Are you a pro? You a pro. Kind of number two. You get this money's what we're trying to do. Last but not least.  Where you're at is a hole. And when you go, like, you might go further. You get it.  I don't even know if that hole right there. You want me to get the other ones off or are you good? Can't go back now, man. Hey, you don't need a pro when you know how to fix something when it's wrong.  We out here getting done. We about to scow. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Thank you very much. So you have a great one too. Yes, sir. For the number four, we pulling up. So we can get this dough and scow. Get it popping like Crisco. And we guess where we going? The pickup location is called Cisco. We are going to pick up some food and don't be rude. We are picking up 54 items that weighs 0.74 pounds. So it's going to be 40 pounds all again, like 39 pounds and some chains by the goer here and do our thing. We're going to drive 159 miles for 305, 46. We about to pull up and get in the mix. Let's go. This is what we picking up, baby. Is this what we picking up? I don't know. It says I'm supposed to be 40 pounds. How you doing, sir? Is this order going to Oshkosh? Teriyaki? Teriyaki man, is it corporate? Corporate, yeah. Yes, sir. Okay, thank you. Yeah, my guy about to get us. He about to get right. I think I'm a customer. I'm a customer. Okay.  Let's go. So as you guys just saw, the app was completely wrong. It is not 54 items that weighs 0.74 pounds, baby. It is not. The weight varies. I'm talking about these boxes, light boxes, heavy boxes, five-gallon buckets, like four of those. I'm talking about all types of stuff in there. So I did reach out to the app, let them know, A, look, this is not what y'all say that it was going to be. It's actually 1,417 pounds altogether. Not 40 pounds. So they talked to them. They said they're going to reach out to the manager. I'm like, look, I will still do the low, but can I get an extra $150 for the extra weight in the van loading by hand and unloading by hand? They said the account manager is discussing the matter with the shipper, please stand by. She said, I am almost for sure it's not going to be that much. The low slash unload fee is $34.74. I said, for how much weight? Then she wrote, actually they approved the 150 RIP Nipsey. We're about to get a grip, G. So instead of the 305, we are actually going to receive $455 and 46 cents. Enough money to pay the rent but to pull up in the bends with no tent. Let's go. We are here at the drop off at Teriyaki Madness. Stop the madness, baby. I don't know where I'm supposed to go. I have. Perfect. Right here, okay. But we can do this. You can just back up right in the spot right here. Yeah. And I'll help you unload it. Okay. All right, thank you. Or do you want anything or just go? No, it didn't matter. Whatever's easier for you guys. Another dollar too, so. Cool. Yeah, because I don't really like to do the back but it'd be impossible for you to get over there right now especially with the traffic. Yeah. Yeah. Kind of like the worst timing is for us to be running out of stuff. Because you got that buy one get one today, right? Yeah, the other promotion. Oh yeah. I've got to get something to do before we go. There you go. No, you got to do that. No, you got to do that.  Yeah. I'm the owner, but. Are you the owner? Sometimes, most of them are trouble. Okay, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to grab this other dolly. I'm going to set the dolly right there. Okay. Maybe we can just keep on sparking them out. Let's do it. How long have you owned this? 17 months now. We've been, we opened up some last, how's it make going? Was it a smart move or? I want to give you guys some advice. A, I want to tell you guys about y'all up there. Be polite and nice to everybody. You never know who you may be talking to. He don't like to own a dude. He likes this regular old person. You never know who you talking to. So always keep that in mind while you're out there in the ground.  Tell me, it happens. Happens every day. Never, ever. And the rest is yours. You are good to go, sir. I appreciate it. What's your name again, sir? Nate. Nate, nice to meet you, Nate. Nice to meet you. Thank you, you have a good one. I appreciate it. Yes, sir. And just like that, we are done. As you guys can see, it ain't no more sun. It's dark outside, baby. I know the last three little slippers of videos, it has been dark because we at the drop-off location right now. And I didn't have a chance to record it beforehand. But we went out there to get them bands. And we did not get a band, but we did get $677.10. Enough money to pay the rent, baby. We went out there and got busy. I'm glad you guys are with me. We had yet another $500-plus day. Time to get the pepper at the A-bay. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Again, if you are not subscribed, make sure to subscribe. Also, give me a thumbs up if you don't forget to throw them seeds up.  You already know what to do. Guess what?  I'm glad you guys waited until the end of the video. I'm gonna tell you right now. The app that we just made all that money on is Freight. F-R-A-Y-T.  I will see you guys on the next one. We going, we going, we flowing. You already know it is DDK and I'm on my way.
