There were some things that were mismanaged that I had to help clean up and that I was a little bit frustrated about. So when I finally reached out to Rain, you know, I was like, Hey, what's up, man?  You know, he stiffed me as I was gonna be this much, right?  I'm not tripping about it, but I was like, man, hold up, like, you don't even know, right? That I'm over here playing ghost manager for you. You know what I'm saying? Like, you know how you have the ghost writers that write the raps for the hardest? I'm playing ghost manager for you. Because we were ourselves. We dictated the conversation. We didn't compromise who we were and we spoke fluently and educated in this business that we've given our lives to, you know what I'm saying? And to be, again, someone of Mexican American descent, you know, I don't know anybody from my city or really from the general area that's been able to experience that level. And maybe there is, I don't know. There is, I'm just gonna go and let you know, there is.  He's on your level. Y'all both neck and neck, you say that he could never touch you. Rainwater. I said Mexican, you know what I'm saying?  You weren't talking about his family. Well, let's talk about Rainwater. I wanna talk about Rainwater. Like you made a hard statement in that deal. I watched that in Mogul media when it came out because that's my boy. You know, that's how I met you. Hey, number six, hey, he remember the number six came to keep a list. But I'm just saying. The only Latino that came to keep a list. I just wanna know how you felt so strongly to make those strong remarks about you being the best manager and Rainwater could never, could never be on your level. Y'all both got a lot of similarities, y'all promote. Y'all go in these different rooms with these different big labels. So what makes you think that you're untouchable? I was at Cap. You said it. It wasn't Cap. I'll tell you that. It was a little bit of WWE. It was a little bit of like, look brother, I'm gonna face you in a still cage match, brother. You know what I'm saying? I was killing myself, but that was a good interview. I appreciate it.  I did it kind of to ruffle some feathers, to be honest with you, I was a little irritated with something that he did and I spoke on it, but I don't really have an issue with him, right? You know, there was some, because I have a relationship with Bump, right? Bumpy Johnson. I like Bumpy. Bumpy comes over here and sing and go in. Hey man. Holder, life I live, it got colder. Say the line for you. And Buffy's special.  Buffy go hard. And I actually had a label reach out to me about him recently. Really? So Bumpy's aware of it, you know what I'm saying? And we've spoken and, but you know, I was doing a lot of work for Bump behind the scenes and he didn't, he never let Rain know that I was the one kind of navigating and doing some of those things. So there were some things that were mismanaged that I had to help clean up and that I was a little bit frustrated about. So when I finally reached out to Rain, you know, I was like, hey, what's up man? Like, you know, I want to get you on my podcast, right? You know, he stiffed me as I was going to be this much, right? Yeah, I know he is. And I get it, you know what I mean? I'm not tripping about it, but I was like, man, hold up, like, you don't even know, right? That I'm over here playing ghost manager for you. You know what I'm saying? Like, you know how you have the ghost writers that write the raps for the hardest? I'm playing ghost manager for you, for sure. I heard all that.  Hey, you know what I'm saying? Even whenever I was going to interview him, the plan was always to like, maybe it was for the viewership and just for the conversation. The plan was always to challenge him online, on TV or on screen, and be like, let's have a manager face off. You take an artist that's go 12 months, head-to-head, and let's see who has better results. I was always going to do that. Did y'all, y'all ever do that?  But yeah, I mean, but anyways. But the challenge, still there. I mean, if he wants to lose money, I don't know. You think it's a trap, okay? Cause I'm going to be honest with you. I remember this time period when this bumpy thing was going on. And I remember Bumpy Jess getting over there with him too. So he really was locking in with you, probably prior to him even dealing with Roy. Yeah, kind of sort of. Because that was early on. I know that were early on because of the time and when I seen the interview. Kind of sort of.  Like I don't really want to speak on the bumpy situation because bumpy is, he's kind of like, he's his own thing, right? And you know, he messaged me. Like, come on, it's really, can't out of that shade. But I hope he knows it was a little bit of theatrics, a little bit of fun. I mean, we all do it, but, but no, I mean, to answer the question or to not steer away from it, I stand by what I said. Like, I don't think he can see me, you know what I mean? But Rayna, I mean, you him, man. Hey, y'all dope, man. Lobe easy. It's a dope look. It's some dope managers, man.  Cause he went on this whole thing about how he has more followers and this and that.  Bro, I was pulling his numbers. I was pulling my numbers. I went on to like the social media engagement calculator. I was showing that I had a higher engagement rate. So you real petty. Yeah, I was like, bro, you know something they, this ain't adding up. Somebody got fake followers, you know what I mean? So you saying Ray got fake followers? I don't know about all that, but I was saying, something wasn't added up with all the honesty. Like I will say this, like, he's very influential to a community. And I can't take that away from anybody. Cause when, even when we look at that gamekeeper list that D did, by the way, man, D didn't put one out this year. D, I think them niggas scared D, man. D running right here scared to put that list out. Cause you know they already told him could put that list out. They don't want it out no more. People say don't even put me on it no more. I think Sean Cotton say, I'm done with the list. He retired him. Yeah, yeah, man, Jay Prince. They don't want to be on the list no more, you know. So, hey, I don't know. What you think?  I think if he doesn't boss talk, one of one needs to drop the list. You want to drop the list? We can do it, though. Hey, not really.  No, I'm going to be honest with you. Like, it's cool. It's a conversation. Starting honesty, like, believe it or not, like whenever they do do it, it does shed light on some of the guys that deserve to get shed light on. You were exactly right there. So, like, I don't see nothing wrong in it. But, but nah, man, like all those guys are influential, you know, from rain to baby to everybody, man.  No, we are influential because y'all have the ability to shed light and amplify a situation. And that's a gift. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? So as much as like I was calling them out and all that.  To be honest with you, like, if I see him, it's like, oh, well, come on, we got to fight. Like, there ain't nothing like that.  Like, it's like, if this is basketball and there's a ball on the court, and you know, I feel I could beat you one-on-one.  If I believe it, that's what it is, whether or not people agree. Do you give him pride from O3, man? And the job he did, not only when he was alive, but after he passed away. I think he's doing a good job right now because I know that he recently reached out to somebody that I'm really close to see. This is the thing, he doesn't know how tied in I am, right? One of the records that he played a part in, you know, post passing, right? I have it on my phone right now. See, this is the thing, like we all run in the same circles. So you got to respect people because you don't know how much we could work with each other and how we could benefit from one another. But maybe it's just not within his realm of thinking that there's business to be done here, right? I do think he's doing the best of his abilities to maintain the legacy. During the time that he was alive, I'll be honest with you, I wasn't really keeping up to that degree. Okay. But the fact that mode three, and again, like I don't want to speak uneducated, but the fact that, you know, he has become, you know, a legend. A legend, he's huge, man. You know what I'm saying? People hold him in that goat conversation now when it comes to artists that have come here. Anybody and everybody that was part of that, from Rain to Prophecy to the producers. Oh, Prophecy is my guy. Cause, you know, visually, he created the, he created the look, the brand. There's a lot of people that play a part, they all deserve to be like, you know, celebrated in the sense that like they all played a part. So I don't know to the degree of, you know, the direction, the strategy. I don't know that. But yeah, but I just think it's a beautiful thing.  And you know what? I will never take that away from him because you know, that's one thing that no one can ever say when it went, history was written one way and one way only. Because I've heard people try to discredit him and say, man, the only reason that he's who he is is because of this artist. Like, nah, bro, like the truth is, the story was written one way and that's him and him together. Yeah, we on Boss Talk TV. Shout out to Ihi, the reason you see.


Hi, everyone. I'm Julius Linus. I'm an Android developer here at NextCloud. And I'm going to give you guys an example of the effort Next Cloud has made to ensure the quality of the talk Android application. Just over all the speed here, refactoring. What is a strange word? What exactly does it mean? Well, in a nutshell, refactoring just means rewriting old code, also called legacy code, to new, modern code. So why care about refactoring? Well, if you don't refactor, tech depth happens. And tech depth is basically shortcuts, cutting corners, things we use to speed up development so that we can meet deadlines, so that our product managers are all happy, everyone's happy, people get paid. And one of the easiest ways to accumulate tech depth is through the use of third party libraries. Now, what is a library?  And libraries speed up development time, drastically in some cases. And this app used a lot of them. And this made sense. Years ago, when the app was first being developed, and when these libraries are still fresh and new, and so still updated, it made sense to use them. They were maintained. But unfortunately, times change. Those libraries that were used at the beginning have since fallen to the state of disrepair. They're unmaintained. As you can see in that example, the last update was in 2020. Look at it. Some folders have been updated in seven years. That's not good. Not all libraries are created equal. They're only good when they're actively maintained by a third party. That's what makes open source useful, the separation of concerns. But unfortunately, because not all libraries are created equal, when they're not maintained, they just become bloat. TechDep, and TechDep needs to be repaid. Now, we at Talk and Android have a lot of TechDep to repay. And a lot of the libraries used in making the app have been outdated or abandoned. But we have made significant progress. Now, I'm not going to bore you all with the technical details of what exactly we've done. And to be honest, I'm sure you don't really care either way. But just to show you, we've done a lot, no doubt, and help by my genius co-workers, Andy and Michael. Sorry, Marcel, I'm so sorry. My genius co-workers, Andy and Marcel, who helped clear a lot of these. To do, we have practically everything. Development is pretty much never-ending. And Google doesn't help either, although you can also help us by contributing. Because it's true, we do do a lot of stuff here at Talk and Android. But this is just a small part of a bigger picture, a ground level view of the greater company-wide effort to deliver quality applications to our users, and especially to you. And you can help us too. You don't even need to learn how to code. Just by reviewing our app, notifying us of known issues, testing our bills and using it in production, you can help take NextCloud to the next level. Thank you.


The makers of Wrigley's Spearman chewing gum invite you to enjoy life. Life with Luigi, a comedy show created by Cy Howard and starring that celebrated actor, Mr. J. Carol Nash with Alan Reed as per squadron. You know, friends, Wrigley's Spearman chewing gum is a typically American product that appeals to people of all ages and nationalities in all parts of our country. And the Wrigley people feel that Life with Luigi is a typically American radio program. A friendly, enjoyable show that sort of symbolizes the American spirit of tolerance and goodwill. So the makers of refreshing, delicious Wrigley's Spearman gum are glad to bring you life with Luigi each week and have you join them in this pleasant half-hours entertainment. And now let's read Luigi's letters. He writes about his adventures in America to his mama basco in Italy. Mama mia. Always I'm right to you about my big, beautiful city of Chicago where I'm a live. But it's time to give you a better idea what the cities look like. I'm sending you picture poster cards. Also, I'm right to have a wonderful time of wishing you was here on the back of every poster card, except the one. That's a picture of a stockyard. Then I'm right to have a wonderful time. Stay where you are. Anyway, Mama mia, look good on these poster cards and you see what the American city is like. First the picture is a show you the loop. This is Chicago's busiest section and you're going to see autos, buses, taxis, elevators and street cars. The little things that's running away, that's the people. I'm also putting a picture of my school building which I love so much where I'm going right tonight. I know you wasn't coming. I'm a backer, Pete. I'm a backer, Pete. Ah, here's my trolley car. All right, step lively, step lively. Have your transfers ready. All right, move up, move to the rear of the car, please. Sure, I'm a move to my rear. Hey, you. Me? Yeah, this transfer is no good. But I just got it from the other trolley diver. Well, it expired 10 minutes ago. Expired? Excuse me, I'm going to look into my dictionary. Expire to die. Mama mia, poor transfer. How come there's a possible transfer should die? Because it's stamped between seven and eight and it's 10 after eight. 10 after eight? Expired mean it's too late to be used. Oh, please, it's 10 after eight. Look, maybe while we're arguing, you can take me to my school. There's no arguing.  You mean your trolley is expired, too? All right, wise guy, are you getting off? No, no, please, please, don't get excited. Well, when I'm going to get on the other trolley, I'm going to get a transfer, but is it supposed to be good? Well, it's not. I've been getting so many of these, I'm getting sick of it. Now look, pay the 15 cents. I'll sign the transfer, give it to you, and you can write the company. Now is that fair? What, act of fair? Good. Fair? Uh-huh, fair? No, no, no, no. Fair. Fair. Yeah, but I'm agree with you, fair? Fair. Fair means 15 cents. Huh? I'm a better looking at my dictionary. Don't look at anything, just give me the money. Well, all right, all right. Mommy, I'm better give them 15 cents before it's turned out to be a 25 cents. I'm, I'm hoping Miss Spaulding isn't going to be angry because I'm a late... That was very good, Mr. Olson. And now, well, come in, Mr. Basko. Thank you, Miss Spaulding. How old have you been? Hello. You're 20 minutes late, Mr. Basko, what's the excuse? About a half an hour ago, I'm expired. What? That's what I call a good student. He comes to school dead or alive. Please, Mr. Schultz. What do you mean you expired, Mr. Basko? Well, you see, Miss Spaulding, I'm a guy on a beat, trolley. Go to the end of the line to get a school. I got a transfer with a holo puncher for a date trolley, but a holo was expired. He doesn't make a transfer to die because the conductor was a fad. I'm a guy a transfer with a his and a hammer to complain it to the company. Stop, Luigi. I think you are off your trolley. Wait a minute, Schultz. Luigi is very obvious to me. The conductor told him his transfer was no good. That's happened to millions of people, believe me. All right, Mr. Basko, I understand your excuse. Now try not to let it happen again. Yeah, but is him a possible Miss Spaulding? Impossible? Why? Because I'm a no puncher holding a transfer. Well, forget it. Oh, no, no, Miss Spaulding. I'm a no forget it. What? It is a Miss Spaulding. What I mean is there's no fault of mine a conductor is a argue and a transfer is a good. I'm not going to complain. That's the spirit, Luigi. Would I like to tell a trolley car conductor where to get off? Yeah, I'm going to write it to the company, explain everything, and I see that they give me back my money. Good for you, Luigi. That's sticking up for your rights. You think so, Miss Spaulding? Why certainly, Mr. Basko. If you think the conductor punched a hole in the wrong place, you have a perfect right to complain. If you think it's worth it. Well, it's a conductor punched a hole. It's a death thought, so it's a worth it. If you don't mind, Luigi, I would like to say something on the subject. There he goes. Oh, but I like to punch a hole in him. Oh, is that so? Now, please, gentlemen, please, please. What is it, Mr. Olsen? Well, I would only like to add that there are too few people like Luigi. Most people, they take these little things lying down without doing anything about it. I think the principle of the thing is real important. And if Luigi is willing to take the time to do it, he should be highly commended on his sense of justice. Him will how can a man be so right and sound so wrong? Here, well, thank you, Olsen. I remember when I was first to come to America. I got the wrong number on the telephone, but I got my nickel back. How did you do it, Luigi? I find it so hard to kick the telephone in a phone booth. Now, I gave it a girl in my name and address. The next day, the nickel came back in an envelope. I remember I was so thankful I put the nickel back in the telephone and called the operator and said, thank you, and I hung up. Well, good for you, Mr. Basko. As Mr. Horowitz said, it's good to see someone sticking up for his rights. And maybe for letting them know that they will send you a bonus of 15 cents. Yeah, and then with the 30 cents you could take a taxi. You don't have to ride in a trolley car. Yeah. Who knows, Luigi, maybe from your letters the company will decide to make it new improvements. Maybe they're going to put in their street cars soft seats with armrests. Maybe they give indirect lighting with free newspapers. Who knows, they might even build a new fleet of trolleys and hire only beautiful girls as conductors. You're very sure, so you think they would do all this because of my letter? No, but if you tell them they should do that, maybe you'll get back your 15 cents. My name's Basko. Oh, hello, Mr. Post Office. You got something from Italy? No, not today. But here's something from the Chicago trolley company. Oh, that's a good one. Thank you very much. Here, have a piece of fruit. Thanks. Yeah, well, this must be 15 cents they sent me back. Hmm, here's no money. Dear Mr. Basko, we regret an unfortunate incident you had on our line. Will you please fill out and close the form so that we may settle your claim? Yours truly, J.T. Atkinson passenger traffic manager. Come on, mommy. Why they sent a form? There must be something wrong. I'm better go next door and ask my countryman for a squalor. Luigi, my friend. Hello, Luigi, hello, hello. Hello, Pascuali. Hey, Luca, I got this letter. Uh-uh, trouble. I'm a little banana now. Pascuali, Pascuali, I'm a dunno. It's from a trolley company. I had a complaint with the transfer. So I'm stuck up for my rights and I ask for my money back and now I got this letter. You rode to the trolley company? Yeah. Luigi, I'm afraid to ask, but what did you do now? How much is it going to cost to bail you out and don't expect to know helper from me? What do you want, Pascuali? Who are you thinking so much of trouble? I tell you why, because when you rode a trolley company is not the city case. What do you mean? Well, you trouble was between Madison and Monroe Street, you know? Yes. Well, right away is a federal case. You're dealing, you're dealing, Luigi, with the Inter Street, the Commerce Commission. Now, let me see that trance. Yeah, all right, but be careful, Pascuali. You're going to tear it. You see conductor punched the hole over here. Terrible. Terrible as a voice. What's the matter? You see where the conductor punched it to say PM? That's a mean of public money. You should have told him AM. Why? Because you're not a citizen and that means the alien of money. Luigi, I hate to tell you this, but are you guilty of a perjury? You don't say? If I don't say, how come you hear me? Oh, Luigi, perjury, that's very bad. That's the one step above a Mrs. a demeanor. I look for Luigi. Twilight companies are going to tell a bus company on you. They tell her the taxis who tip off for the trains. Then the airplane companies will find out about it, and they'll borrow you. From now on, you're going to be known as Luigi Bosco, the man without a vehicle. Pascuali, please, please, help me out. What am I going to do? Shoot, shoot, I'm glad to help you. Because I'm in love with you like a son-in-law. Hair up with a form and write back a letter to the company like this. Dear to who it may concern. I'm going to never receive you a letter, which I'm going to thank you for not sending. I'm going to never have trouble with your company.  Yours is truly sincerely Bosco. Don't give it a first name. You sound like your lawyer made up for the letter, you see. How's it at that? Well, that's wonderful, Pascuali. What wouldn't I do without you? You wouldn't get in the trouble, that's a lot. Well, Luigi, now that I'm helping you out, I want you to help me out. What is your, Pascuali? What do you want me to do? To show you got no hard feelings, you should go for a ride on a trolley car right away. Oh, well, I'm glad to do that. With you, take my daughter Rosa. What do you say, my son? Go buy Papa. Before we return to life with Luigi, here's a suggestion that millions of people find enjoyable during a busy day. Carry a package of Wrigley's Spearmint Chewing Gum with you wherever you go.  The lively, long-lasting Spearmint flavor is really delicious. And the good, pleasant chewing adds enjoyment to whatever else you're doing. It satisfies you, gives you the little lift you need and tides you over till mean time. Try it and see for yourself. Keep Wrigley's Spearmint Chewing Gum handy and enjoy it often, every day. Now, let's turn to page two of Luigi Vasco's letter to his mother in Italy. Hello, so, mama mia. Mama did what a Pascuali told me. Mama wrote the letter to the company and I took a trolley car ride all by myself right away and I'm acting very nice. In a trolley, scientists say, do not speak to the conductor. So, mama now said a word to the conductor.  He said, give me a funny look. Then he's a holler. Step to the rear of the car. Right away, I'm obey and I'm a stepper. So far to the rear, I'm almost fall out of the back of the trolley. Anyway, you would think all this would have happened? No. Two days later, I'm receiving another letter, even worse. I was trying to figure out what to do when... Luigi, my fellow boob. Oh, hello, sir. Well, how did you make it out with the trolley car? Look, mama, just to receive this letter. Ah, let me see. Dear Mr. Vasco, we cannot understand your last letter and we would appreciate your cooperation in helping us to close the files in your case. Please come to Mr. Atkinson's office returning at your earliest can talk to you at... Oh, not lonely. You just want your finger. They even sent back my transfer. Why? I don't know. Conductor, give it to me. I'm a center to the company. They sent it back and now I'm gonna bring it in again. Him and that transfer is doing more traveling than their trolley cars. Luigi, wait, Luigi. Here in the letter is 15 cents. Yeah, I know. I sent it to them. Luigi, who told you to do that? Pasquale. Ah, Pasquale, no wonder you are so verschimmelt. Now, Luigi, you go right down to that company and talk to them. Yeah, but I'm afraid. Afraid? Where is the Luigi that said he would stick up for his rides? If it was their fault, so it was worth the trouble even though it's only 15 cents. Here, you write the Schulze. This is America. And I'm no afraid to see nobody. I'm gonna go right now and see Mr. Atkinson. That's the spirit, Luigi. And smile. Be like me. Always happy. Always laughing. My home-artist is killing me. Do you have an appointment with Mr. Atkinson? Look, I'ma tell you for half hour. He's wrote me I should come down to my earliest convenience. Now he's in my earliest. Well, what do you wish to see him about? It's about the 15 cents he's owe me. Oh, just a minute. I'll buzz him. Yes? Mr. Atkinson, Mr. Jenkins wanted me to remind you about the five o'clock meeting of the railway commission. I know all about it. Mm-hmm. Oh, yes, there's a Mr. Luigi Basko here. He's come to collect a personal death. A personal death? Yes, it's 15 cents. What? Oh, tell him I'm out for the day. All right, then I'ma wait until he'll come back. What? I'ma brought to you later and I'ma coming for my 15 cents. Oh, all right, send him in. Hmm. You may go in now, Mr. Basko. I didn't think Mr. Atkinson needed money that badly. Come in. Come in, sir. I didn't realize it was you. If I remember correctly, you sent us a rather odd letter. Well, isn't there no rush with the business, Mr. Atkinson? Any letter you say you want to talk with me? So maybe we'll talk her first, huh? How's the street kind of business? You make a nice living? Yes, yes. Now, what's more important as passenger traffic manager, it's my duty to investigate complaints. And frankly, I understand that at that terminus, there have been quite a few. Well, I try to eliminate the causes, so suppose you tell me what happened that day. Start from the beginning. From the beginning? Yes. Well, the alarm clock is the one off at that the morning and I'ma jump out of bed. No, no. Start from the time you boarded that first trolley. Oh, exactly what time was it? Was, uh, 10 after 7. Are you sure it was 10 after 7? When the little hand is on a 7 and a bigger handle is on a 2, what time is it then? When the little handle is on the 7 and the big handle is on the 2, it's, uh, well, let's say it was 10 after 7. You, uh, boarded the trolley where? State in the Monroe. Keep going. Huh? Keep going. All right, then. State in the Madison, State in the Monroe, State in the Adams, State in the Jackson. Wait a minute! What are you doing? You said keep going, so I'ma go. Well, stop. I can't. I'ma got another mile to go before I'ma get off. Mr. Basko, I'm trying to find out what happened when you boarded that first call. Oh, oh. Well, I'ma gather to conduct the 15 of pennies. Easy, give me a diamond and nickel. I'ma drop the diamond on the floor and I'll bend down to look for it. A lady is a fall over. All right, let's forget the lady. What? Forget the lady? Yes. Mr. Atkinson, that's not the nice. A lady is a fall over me. I'ma gotta pick it up. All right! Pick her up. Now, did that first conductor give you the transfer in question? Sure. That's aware maybe it's the mistake. It was a bigger crowd. Maybe he's got a nervous. And he's a punch a hole between a seven and eight and instead of eight and a nine. Mr. Basko, are you sure you didn't find that transfer? Somewhere like an old one in your pocket or on the street? Mr. Atkinson, you think I'm a light to you? All right. Keep all my money. And from now on, I'ma take all of my business to the bus. Please, Mr. Basko, I'm just trying... Oh. Hello. Hello, Atkinson. Will you come up to my office? We've gotta prepare for the railway commission meeting. Oh, yes, sir. Just let me finish a complaint I have on the State Street's Terminus. Oh, that's a sore spot. Oh, no. It's a no-sore spot. Seats are fine, but a transfer isn't no good. Please, Mr. Basko. I've got an idea, Atkinson. Bring the man up with you. Well, we'll come along. Mr. Basko, do you realize that you just spoke to our president? Mamma mia, Harry Truman. I thought he was a president, Truman. Honey, you was only Mr. Jenickin. Yes, yes. Would you sit down, please? Mr. Garmin, Mr. Basko? No, I'm a sari. I'ma no garani. Well, I'm giving you one. Oh, thanks. How much do you mind if I'm a do? Hmm. Taxapay, though. My favorite brandy. Hmm, it's nice. Well, gentlemen, what do you cannot do for me? Hmm. Mr. Basko, I have a very important reason for asking you to come here, but first I want to make sure that we understand each other's position. Yeah. You got in my 15 cents and I'ma want it. Mr. Basko, what I mean is we are bound by certain rules handed down by the railway commission. For instance, well, would you mind reading me the rules on the back of your transfer? Why, you forget them? I just want to make sure you understand. Oh, give it to me and I'll read them. I'd like to hear it. Thank you. This transfer is issued, it says, subject to the rule of the Chicago Twilight Transit Line. It's published in the tariffs and special regulations. It is good for transfer to connecting lines in the same general direction away from the district of Issue. Be a direct route only and it's not good in any line which returns the point of origin or the general locality thereof. Mr. Basko, do you understand that? Huh? I said, do you understand that? No, do you? Of course. All right, then you explain to me. Oh, very well. When a transfer is returned, I mean issued, the regulation, oh, I mean the trolley. That is the commission. Mr. Basko, I don't see... No, please, please, Mr. Jenneken. I'm going to want to make a trouble. Maybe I'm going to get on with you at the wrong time. It's a slow season with the trolleys and you can't pay the 15 a cent. That is not the point. No, no, no. It isn't nothing to be ashamed of. I'm going to get the same thing in my business. Only it's slow all the time. If it's too much for you company to pay all in one time, you send me a penny a week for 15 a week. It is not the 15 cents, Mr. Basko. Chicago trolley transit is worth over $20 million. We're a great public utility serving over 4 million people. Does that mean anything to you? Yes. You don't want to give me my money. Mr. Basko. You owe me 15 a cents. All right, then charge me for a cigar and you just give me a dime. Oh, this is... This is preposterous. All right, then don't give me no money. Let me ride the homer for nothing and then we even. Mr. Jenkins, we're not getting anywhere and we've got to be at that board meeting in 15 minutes. 15 minutes? Oh, good heavens. Come, Mr. Basko. It's too late to explain now. I've got an idea. I'm taking you to the railway commission. Let them hear our side of it from just the plain citizen. Mama mia. Railway commission. Pasquale was the right. I'm not going to be the manor without a vehicle. All right, Mr. Jenkins. You may proceed with your appeal. Thank you. If it pleases the commission, I would like to introduce Mr. Luigi Basko, a typical passenger on our trolley lines who had the typical complaint. Now, Mr. Basko... No, no, no, please. Don't send me away. I'm a promise you. I'm not going to walk every day to school.  But, uh, Mr. Basko... All right. To keep you money, keep you a cigar. I don't want to smoke a half anyway. Please, please, just let me stay in America. No, Mr. Basko, I... I don't understand this. Now, um... Now, will you just show the commission your transfer? All right. I know it's a look of terrible. I'm a look of guilty, but it's not my fault. Conducted is a punch the hole between a seven and eight. But everybody is a handle of transfer.  Oh, please, Mr. Basko. You're... I must say, you're not helping my company one bit. I brought you here to present our case. You're doing us a favor. You see, we're trying to provide our passengers with a safer, more comfortable ride. We want to prove that our state street line extends for more than an hour. And if you will tell your story... And I suppose, well, I talked to the commission and I told them that it would have helped them to get a loan. And maybe if they could not, they'd raise the rates. Anyway, I'm a told the story and everything always turned out to be fine. The president is a call me by my first name, I'm a call him by his last name. And then... Then they give me this present. You see, Luigi is a lack of always a toll. You're a miracle you've got to fight for your rights. Well, I don't care what's happened as long as you're happy enough to make a rosa for the movies. Hey, it comes with a trolley car. Where's that rosa, man? Hey, rosa! Rosa! What did you, we're going to see Luigi? Is a woman on the run with the Anna Sheridan? Hey, you sure you don't want to see a woman in the park with a rosa? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. You know, basquely, thanks. I'm going to care for double the features. Well, here we are. All right, step up. Have your fares ready, please. I don't need no fares, Mr. Trally. Here's two transfers. What? Just read this letter. Well, it's signed by Mr. Jenkins. These transfers are good any day provided they are punched properly. All right. Hey, wait a minute, wait a minute. These aren't punched. That's right. We got a private joke. See, this is a present from the company. A puncher? That's right. Now, see what does it say attached? This puncher has been presented to Mr. Basco and he may punch any time he wants to on the transfer. Well, Glory B, the company's getting a sense of humor. Goodbye, basquely. So long, basquely. And look, I'm no more demanded without a vehicle. I'm a demand with a puncher. And so, Mamma Mia, who has a very exciting time for me and I'm approved, it's a pay to stand up for your rights. But then I had a funny thought to which I've never thought about it before, was about the Trally Company. They called me wonderful names. They apologized to me. They praised me. They gave me two dozen of transfers and a puncher. They gave me everything. But they never gave me back to my 15 cents. They're loving a sign of Luigi Basco, the immigrant.

Good afternoon folks, this is Steve Rhodes, coming to you live from the shores of sunny Delray Beach, Florida this year, 1 p.m. up 8 and currently we have all the U.S. Indices trading to the downside. You've got the Dow off 26 points. That's a little less than one tenth of a percent, or yeah, one tenth of a percent. The S&P is off about half a percent. That's off 20 points. NASDAQ 100 off 88 or six tenths percent. The Russell's off one and three tenths, 27 points. The Semi's are off one and four tenths or 44 points out there. Gold's off seven tenths or 14 bucks. Silver's down 3 percent, 75 cents. She's trading out at 24.15. Lights recruit up 74 pennies. 102.93 is the print there. Natural gas back 14 cents, trading out at 6.79. The 30-year Treasury's off one and one point in 19.30 seconds, 139.14 is its print. Let's go take a look at the nine panel market update chart. We begin with the E.S. Mini. What we can see here is that price has struggled to get above the top of its weekly profile. So you've got really two resistance zones. The top of the weekly profile is 44.80. The center of the daily profile is 45.12. That's your resistance zone. Now with price being back below the bottom of its daily profile, that's 44.52, that suggests to run back for its TD9 count 43.75-ish type area out there. Maybe it's a rising trend line, but that's what the E.S. Mini is telling us. You've got the spot volatility still below its 50-day exponential moving average and rising. It may be targeting a 23.68 level at 50-day exponential moving average. The spot volatility, I'm sorry, the NASDAQ, the NQ out here is pulled back and it's trading right into its TD9 count. So if we were to close below 13.893.75 today, trade at 13.903 right now, that would negate that signal. That would suggest that price might pull back into the 13.405 area. That's the bottom of its weekly bullish-structured profile. The U.S. dollar is strong. It does have a topping pattern. It confirmed a roadsman to Mindicator top, did that yesterday. But as long as price remains above the top of its daily profile, which is 100.18, you're right now trading at 100.58, conditions will remain neutral, unless it takes out the highs of yesterday. Gold is pulled back. And now, what's been testing the top of its daily pro-boxes, 19.48, you're trading 19.42. A closeable 19.48 would suggest a run for the 19.17 level. Silver might be targeting 24.29, light sweet crude, not doing a whole lot out here. Natural gas should have support of about 662, and the assistance of the third-year treasurer has run for 40 years. Folks, take a look at what the trader said, Joe. If you're off to start 4.30 today, have a terrific one. Thanks for your time, Joe.


Good morning, Professor Murthy. Thank you very much for joining us today on Skype from Hyderabad We appreciate you taking time to speak to us You've been involved in the development of school screening programs in India for a long time. Could you give us a brief Background to this whole development Right, it's a pleasure to give you a brief idea about How this tool was developed and how the process of school screening has been conducted in India India actually had a school health program right from the 1960s But then the school health program did not look at Looking at the vision of school children. It was more of a health examination examination So way back in 1989 When we have the Danish International Development Agency supported program for the control of blindness in India they were working in five pilot districts and They felt that in addition to Catrack services, it was important to look at school going children and try and Provide services for refractive errors in school going children and that is how this idea first worked out five pilot districts spread across the country where they went and Tried out a number of tools using different vision cutoffs Before finally settling on a particular vision cutoff The same methodology has been used now Since 1989 till date But it is now run rather than by the leader by the national program for control of blindness and Over these years 25 million children who go to school are and are in grade six to nine Have been covered under the program and about point two million children have received free spectacles under the program it is a Methodology adopted right across the program But some states do better than the others, but otherwise the methodology is exactly the same Professor Morty, could you tell us how was the cutoff for the screening test established between Six nine and six twelve. Yeah, so there were a couple of issues which were considered when one the Cutoff tool was identified and two Specific age groups were identified So this program looked at children aged 10 to 14 years were in school because nearly 17% of the Indian population is aged 10 to 14 years and about 70 to 75% of them are enrolled in secondary school, which covers grades six to nine So that was the reason why these school children were taken up the operational feasibility Because school teachers will be used for the screening exercise and therefore they just had a One-day training in this they had to go and pick up When they had a one-day training, it was important that they were able to pick up as many children as Possible amongst those who are being screened So an experiment was done in two of the districts which were being covered in 1989 by the Dunedin program and they tried out two different vision acuity charts One they used a six nine optotype and another they used a six twelve They did a validation both of Using teachers at both the cutoff points. So that was one validation. The second validation was of the optotype So when they looked at the validation of teachers versus an optometrist the sensitivity of the teacher to pick up Individuals or school children was about 86% and the specificity was 98% When they looked at the vision card and they look at the six one nine optotype It was about 71% sensitivity and 94% specificity When they looked at the six twelve optotype the Sensitivity improved or increased further the specificity. There was not much of a change When they looked at the teachers and spoke to the teachers the teachers were very Unhappy when they picked up only say one child per school when he used a six by twelve optotype Compared to about five to six children per school when he used a six by nine any eye optotype So to look at the operation of a program which would involve the teachers and keep their interest going So there was this toss up between Using six twelve or six nine looking at the highest sensitivity and specificity rates with six nine any eye It was decided to use the six nine optotype in the national program in India Right. I'd also like to share the tool that he is that is used for the schools training in India this is Eliminated card a Cardboard cut out it has an e in front which is in the vernacular language and if you reverse this card You will find that there are four optotypes Which are equivalent to the six by nine optotype? so what the teacher does is that She or he holds the card at a distance of six meters and the child is asked to read each of the optotypes Which is pointed out if the child can read three out of the four Then the child is passed on the screening test and if the child cannot read at least three Then the child is referred on to the ophthalmic assistant Once one eye is completed the teacher just rotates the card so the child can then read it again So rotating the card for each of the eyes Then protects the children in that group from memorizing the order of the ease that are on the card So it's a very simple tool very easy for the teacher and on the inside of the card are the instructions Which become a ready-recognised? For the school teacher so after the training they could refer to these points Which are in the vernacular for them to actually conduct the screen Professor Morty, thank you very much for joining us today and for sharing your experiences With the national school vision testing program in India


Well, Mr. President, Director-General, ladies and gentlemen, it's a great pleasure to be here tonight to address businesses who represent so much of what is great about our country and having listened to Sir Roger's speech, I absolutely applaud and agree with the clear truths, the hard truths that he spelt out and I thank him for the tributes paid to the change taking place in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office on which I wish to expand and he spoke a little about the unhappy public or tests of public popularity. Of course we had local elections 10 days ago and in my party there was only one thing really particularly to be happy about which was Boris was re-elected as Mayor of London here and it reminded me of the first time I ever went to campaign for him when he was a candidate in the unlikely place of Cluid South in North Wales in 1997 and he and I for electoral purposes were put on the flangothlin steam train in the cab and we were waving at the cameras then we realized we were alone in the cab and we did not know how to we did not know how to slow down a steam train accelerating on the flangothlin railway somebody came to rescue us and then I said to Boris so how's it going then Boris and he said well it's going to be huge and I said well what's going to be huge he said I don't know but it's going to be huge and it was in this case the swing to labour was huge in 1997 and ever since then at the start of the election Boris and I said it's going to be huge and he when it was when it was when we were all being asked a few years ago who had taken drugs at university and it was written in the Daily Telegraph that Boris had never taken drugs at university he responded this is an outrageous slur he said he said there are no no go areas as far as I'm concerned and nobody asked him about it ever again and clearly this is the way we should all behave but maybe we wouldn't all get away with it and I hope that just as there are no no go areas for him that for you and me in promoting British business overseas there are very few no go areas in the years ahead and as foreign secretary and a member of the cabinet I see every week every day how the domestic economic scene and the international scene comes together I see how it's crucially important that investors overseas have confidence in Britain as a place to base their business how it's vital that we have embassies around the world that are able to champion Britain and help create a stable and open international environment in which our country can thrive and this is why foreign policy has to support jobs and growth and prosperity some people have sneered at this since I started arguing it they failed to grasp that we have to help enterprising people create the wealth that drives the investment in our schools our hospitals our roads that pays for our overseas development programs and of course our foreign policy has to achieve other things too we work on those every day support for human rights is in our core national interest and deep in our DNA as a nation this is crucially important too but our ability to promote freedom and democracy is strengthened by a strong economy and a global role foreign policy is not something that exists in a vacuum it is not window dressing for our nation overseas it is not the plaything or pastime of ministers to be channeled into utopian schemes to remake the world and it is not merely a rapid reaction capability putting out fires when crises erupt around the world it must be and with this government it is a coherent plan for how we secure our country's long-term interests in a more competitive and unpredictable world we face formidable challenges in foreign affairs from nuclear proliferation to climate change to international terrorism and we fight all those dangers every day but the greatest single danger to our country today is economic in nature I led one side of the negotiations that produced the coalition government and the atmosphere in those negotiations was urgent we knew that our country needed a stable government able to make tough calls at a time of unprecedented economic risk and two years on we have taken many of those difficult decisions when we came to office the deficit stood at 11 percent of GDP it's now forecast to fall to 7.6 percent next year this has delivered lower borrowing costs for government households and businesses sterling guilt rates are at their lowest since the year 1703 at the moment our economy for that for those purposes is seen as a safe haven in Europe and we've begun domestic reforms to create the conditions for growth and competitiveness but the sense of urgency and purpose has to be with us still we are still grappling with the effects of the worst economic crisis to hit our country and the world in living memory the economic recovery has been slower and more uneven than expected including in Britain global growth has been weaker than predicted and there is still instability in the global financial system the eurozone is facing profound challenges many of which in my opinion were obvious from the beginning but which are now exacerbated by weak growth and excessive debt commodity price shocks are leading to rising costs and dampening recovery and we're starting to see creeping fingers of protectionism in parts of the world picking up the edges of the free and open markets on which the international economy depends this is what we're up against as a country no single event would provide a bigger boost to the British economy in the short term than the resolution of the eurozone crisis and to return to growth in Europe and the crucial ingredients of achieving that growth are fewer barriers to business more free trade less intrusive regulation and the understanding that governments have never and will never create wealth solely through their own activities but we won't put Britain back on the path to prosperity unless we deal with our own economies deep underlying problems and this is the driving purpose of our government we have to rebalance our economy and deal with the legacy of national debt on a colossal scale we have to boost economic confidence and attract investment break into new markets and reduce our trade deficits we have to rise to the challenge of earning our living in the world where indeed many British businesses are leading the way we have to recognize that our graduates are now competing in a global marketplace against well-schooled ambitious and dynamic young people in burgeoning new markets around the world it is different from the environment when most of us left university and entered the world of work we have to win our place in this world economy and I argue to set out to want success more than some of our competitors and as I wrote in the times this morning that is directed to every civil servant entrepreneur shopkeeper trader investor student and minister the challenge for all our countries is for all countries is to adapt and thrive or fail to change and fall behind now some nations will succeed in doing this and some I think may not our government is determined that our country will be one that does succeed and that is why we're reducing the deficit and bringing public finances under control creating a tax system that fosters growth and is attractive to business reducing corporation tax to among the lowest in the G20 and lifting 2 million people out of income tax altogether introducing a welfare system that encourages people into work and an education system that gives people the skills they need to succeed by doing these things we are turning around the fortunes of our economy for the long term and it's my firm belief that in the 2020s these reforms particularly in education and in welfare will be seen as having been as important to our country as the trade union reforms and privatizations of the 1980s my objective in leading the foreign and Commonwealth office is to ensure that when these domestic reforms take effect and the benefits are seen the British people will also find that we have developed vital new networks and connections overseas so that they can make the most of the opportunities open to them on top of preventing conflict promoting our values and dealing with crises this is the vital role of the foreign office it must support open and fair markets resist protectionism battle bribery and corruption and take the lead in protecting the intellectual property on which much of our trade advantage is based our diplomats have to help create new openings for British business overseas and for inward investment and in the European Union champion growth business friendly regulation the expansion of the single market and the free trade agreements that bring billions of pounds worth of business into our economy all of us know that sustainable growth in our economy is not going to come from government spending fueled by debt or in current circumstances from domestic consumer demand it is going to come from investment and from boosting the share of our economy that comes from exports our economic achievements have always been built on our prowess as a trading nation the openness inventiveness and daring hardwired into our national dna helps explain why it is that we are still the seventh largest economy and the sixth largest trading nation in the world when we only make up one percent of its population we export around 30 percent of our GDP we have immense advantages of language history and geography and british ideas and technologies are changing the world you know about them in manchester no bell prize winning scientists are developing graphene the new wonder material that is one carbon atom thick in cambridge arm are designing the technology that goes into 90 percent of all smartphones and in london scientists from ucl and imperial college are researching ways to use nano technology to tackle cancer or to generate cheap solar energy it is achievements like these that undoubtedly will fuel our future success but we have to be even better at deploying them in the future than we have been in recent years we've actually lost global export market share over the last decade and fallen behind our european competitors in emerging economies our trade with brazil a country of almost 200 million people is half our trade with denmark and the number of sms exporting in this country is below the european average today the vast majority of our exports head to markets which will remain vitally important to us but where growth is currently sluggish 70 percent of all our exports go to north america the eu japan and switzerland and less than 10 percent are destined for the 10 largest emerging economies now long-term economic predictions are often wrong in their detail but on current trends emerging markets and developing countries will account for about 60 percent of global GDP by the middle of the next decade and in the first half of this century the bricks already larger than the eurozone could overtake the g7 so we have to tap into new markets as well as retaining our strong position in the old particularly in the vital markets of the united states and the european union this is a challenge that we can embrace with enthusiasm over the next 15 years the world economy is projected to double from 60 trillion dollars to 120 trillion dollars that's 60 trillion dollars of new prosperity within a generation and of course we want british people to share in it so the first task of the foreign and commonwealth office when it comes to supporting our economy is to build the relationships that help british business expand market share in the fastest growing economies the chancellor has set the ambition of doubling uk exports to a trillion pounds a year by 2020 and the prime minister has called for us to help get another 100 000 companies exporting by 2020 if we can increase the number of firms exporting by 100 000 we can generate an extra 30 billion pounds a year for the british economy lord green in his capacity as trade minister is bringing energy and determination to this task working closely as you know with the cbi we hope to see more initiatives like the joint government cbi trade mission to turkey last month that he led with john cridland the first of its kind for mid-sized businesses and in the foreign and commonwealth office we have a much sharper commercial focus a reinforced economics unit more staff seconded to business a charter for business and a leaner and more focused set of objectives the foreign office i inherited had 10 objectives anyone in business knows that it's impossible for a workforce to be effective if there are more objectives than they can remember so now we have three objectives safeguarding britain's national security supporting british nationals overseas and building our country's prosperity and to achieve that building of prosperity we have defined our responsibilities as creating the conditions and opportunities for uk growth securing more trade investment and jobs for the uk and tackling global economic challenges including low carbon growth and our embassies have a mandate to help british companies win contracts promote british sectoral strengths and to understand and influence economic financial and political conditions in other countries and they do this alongside their vital work of supporting global security a g20 plus world is harder for people to navigate than a g8 world companies seeking to export for the first time or to break into new markets face obstacles whether it's language unfamiliar legal systems and local laws or political risk and uncertainty we want to do even more to help companies overcome that and i'm pleased that many people in business are now reporting a cultural shift in the foreign office towards the more effective promotion of the british economy last year the fco and uk ti helped over 20 000 smaller medium-sized enterprises to break into markets around the world last year british exports of goods and services were up by 50 billion pounds a double digit rise of 11 percent including significant increases to brazil russia and south africa and to china and india which for the first time featured in our top dozen export destinations the first reminbi bond issued outside china was issued in london by a british bank we signed a uk us defense trade cooperation treaty that will make it easier for british firms to bid for us military contracts our consulates in houston and denver helped to prevent protectionist by american legislation our embassy and uk ti team in riyadh helped in vences secure a 420 million pound contract for rail signaling technology to help transport pilgrims between mecca and medina and uk ti helped w s atkins to use its olympics cache to win business overseas in countries such as catar host of the 2022 fifa world cup so across the globe we're working to support you and our your president sir roger car addressed all our ambassadors in london uh very recently he told us that cbi members want greater assistance from our embassies in making contacts deploying local knowledge providing better coordination and following up around ministerial business delegations we've heard these messages and we will strive to improve our performance in all these areas we need you to tell the foreign office where you encounter difficulties and to contact us and let us know what more we can do to support you and we need even closer cooperation and understanding between us on trends in the world and opportunities for prosperity but from the beginning of the new government we have embarked on expanding our diplomatic network so british diplomacy is present in more places with greater force and effectiveness our embassies are the essential infrastructure of our recovery overseas so we are reversing the steady shrinking of britain's diplomatic footprint under the last government by 2015 we will have deployed 300 extra staff to fast growing cities and regions in more than 20 countries and we will have opened up to 11 new british embassies and eight new consulates or trade offices for example we will soon be one of only three countries in the u to be represented in all the countries of asian with its new single market of 600 million people we've already opened new consulates in canada and brazil and my announcement yesterday of two new deputy high commissions in india mean that we will have more posts in india than any other diplomatic service in the world and our ministers are relentless in promoting britain overseas we're passionate about helping to create jobs and growth and have already made more than 400 this is just the foreign office ministers more than 400 separate visits to 127 countries including many countries that have not seen a british minister in years or decades honing in on opportunities for britain as well as vital foreign policy issues as i travel around the world and i've been to 54 countries so far i'm really proud of what we make and do in this country we produce high value goods and services in every sector in every part of this country we have the biggest industries in europe for the life sciences ict defense and security and the financial services the bbc's natural history programs are watched in 200 countries and territories doctor who was the most downloaded show on itunes in the united states last year we live in a country which after centuries of buying fine wines and cognac from france is now exporting to france the french ambassador is here we are exporting exporting to france five bottles of scotch whiskey per second and and as someone who worked with jcb i also know that we've got some of the best engineering and manufacturing skills on earth well over a million cars a year are built in plants here in britain 70 percent of them for export and around half our exports are manufactured goods we have to do everything we can to make sure british people at home and abroad are aware of these things and to champion them ourselves and we also have to protect our competitive advantage so we're bringing forward guidance for business on how together we make our networks more resilient against cyber crime and cyber attack so we have a government working to ensure that we have the most competitive tax system the best education system a revamped welfare system and the most attractive environment to invest and start a business we have a foreign office building the connections to the fast-growing economies of the world that will be indispensable to our future we have ministers who lobby for british business on each and every visit overseas we have the skilled diplomats increasingly on the ground able to interpret events spot opportunities make connections and help you develop lasting relations we have the determination to use our voice internationally to argue relentlessly for free trade and open markets and against protectionism or regulation that harms the british economy with all this in place to support british companies small and large we now have to make the most of it so that british products are known by people in brazil as well as they do in belgium in india as well as island in southeast asia as well as western europe and we have to build on the spirit of adventure determination and invention that our country has always possessed on which our success has been founded for so long and without which no nation can succeed in the decades to come as you do these things british ministers and diplomats will be urging you on backing you up opening your way and fighting your corner in his speech to the foreign office so roger put it very well he said there is no doubt for business to be successful in an increasingly competitive world it needs more courage more effort and more support than ever before so the good news tonight is that you have a government that is determined to give you that support and we look forward to working with you to bring the further success and prosperity that is within the reach of our country our businesses and our people thank you very much indeed
