Can you imagine what would your life be like if you stop using your smart phone, smart watch, iPod, iPad, and all electronic devices? Well, we might think it's a stupid question, but actually getting rid of them would be good for our climate. We always think climate change should blame to factories, cars, airplanes, but climate change can easily mean something else. Our small devices consume 6% of the global energy production, same with electric vehicles. Well, I mean not only the devices you see, but also countless sensors hidden everywhere. Like in this building, there are easily more than 1,000 sensors. So the only answer to my question is we just cannot get rid of small devices. But the point is they are not emission free. Battery is the reason our devices need batteries for electricity, but we have to charge them from mains power which are mostly not emission free.  Dead batteries are very toxic to the environment. Recycling can be difficult and costly, so the true cost of using batteries is very high. I want to find a sustainable way to replace batteries. As a material scientist, I will achieve this at the very ultimate point, the material. I will create a new material, efficiently converting environmental energy like sunlight, heat, movement into electricity. We do have techniques for these jobs, but only individually and separately. I'm sorry to say, current technologies are not good enough to power small devices. The novelty of my material is the combination of all technologies into just a single piece of material. This means we don't need to charge our devices anymore. Long-term operation will be super cheap and environmentally friendly. My method is that I will take a material which is sensitive to movement. Technically, piece of electric, but don't worry about the term. This is like mother's gene. I will then selectively change the chemical elements using say nickel and silver. This is like getting father's gene. By carefully choosing the parents, I can teach the next generation material to learn also to be sensitive to light and heat. The feasibility of my method is proven in my previous works. If I win the prize, I will hire researchers and build a team to speed up my research progress. Within five years, batteries will just start to step down from the dominant position. This means we will have 70% emission reduction from batteries. Thank you. Thank you, Jan. Thank you. That was some next level stuff. I'd really like to see my telephone work like that. Yeah, that's the future. Dima Honkela, do you have a question for Jan? Thank you. Very important area of development. Thank you. I would like to ask, based on your basic research results that are kind of potentially groundbreaking, how would you envision the collaboration research-wise and then into the practical pre-arm? Yeah, I think this kind of material when it's developed, it's definitely a great question. Definitely needed collaboration between material science and also electronic engineering. So they must be combined because the signal coming out from the material might be varying based on the, according to the different energy sources, so you must regulate them. So when these things combine together, I think that will be a very bright way to the future for the practical application. Thank you. Thank you. Great. Thank you, Jan, and thank you, Dima.


The study investigates the effect of surface treatments on the mechanical properties of low-density polyethylene, LDPE, jute composites, and found that alkali-silane treatment of jute fibres led to a more than 30% improvement in mechanical properties when reinforced to untreated LDPE, while melaic and hydride addition improved the properties by more than 45%.

Level-landing was a small community located on a navigable tributary of the Yukon River. It was soon after the ice had gone that a small but sturdy boat came into dock and a round-faced, cheerful-looking man stepped ashore. As soon as he appeared, the nearest man cried out, Hey fellas, it's Payton Maldon! The word spread through the town like wildfire. Payton Maldon! Nearly everyone at level-landing rushed to the riverside to give the well-liked trader a rousing welcome. Constable LaRue pushed through the crowd to extend the town's official welcome. His wife, Jean, followed close behind. Hello, Maldon. Ah, it's great to see you back in level-landing. Ah, LaRue! I see by your badge is still the Constable. Ah, Mrs. LaRue, how are you, Jeanine? How fun! And as pretty as ever. I suppose you've heard that I changed my plans this season. Instead of bringing first from the north, I'm bringing supplies from the states. I heard something about him, Maldon. Yes, siri. Pots and pans, yard goods, notions, tinware, staples, hardware, minus supplies. They've got all this needed to stock a store. Maldon, I'm sorry to hear that. Sorry? Well, that's a fine thing to say, LaRue. You've all been in the grip of that money-grabbing, teething, skin-printers with Caswell, haven't you? Well, we sure have. But, Maldon, you don't understand. I looked the situation over when I was here the last time, Constable. And I've had reports that the situation hasn't changed. Caswell's emporium is the only place inside of 50 buyers where you folks could buy goods you need. Am I right or am I wrong? You tell me, Jeannie. You're right, Mr. Maldon. You bet I'm right! Just because Caswell has a monopoly, he charges three times a fair price for everything he sells. Am I right? Yes. I'll tell you what you need at half what Caswell charges, and I'll still make money. Competition's what this place needs, and I'll provide that competition. Maldon, let me tell you something. You're not the first man that's had that idea. I'm not? No. Three men tried to go into competition with Caswell, and things happened to each one of them. Constable, you sound grim. It was grim things that happened. The first one got lost in the woods. He died of exposure. The second one left town in the middle of the night. No one knew why. There was a fire that wiped out the third man. Killed him, too. You think Caswell was behind those things? What I think don't count. But the fact is Caswell would've lost a lot of money if those other men had stayed in business. Of course I can't pull the thing against Caswell. Well, that's why you're so down, Caswell. You're afraid something will happen to me like it did to the others if I open up a store. All I can say while doing is this. I'll do my best to see that nothing happens. Well, don't you worry, Constable. Nothing's going to happen to me while Danny's on hand. Danny? Look back there in the boat. Hey there, Danny! Speak up! Don't! Yesterday, and he's as good a bodyguard as any man can have. Look! Look over there. Another dog. Great day. What an animal that one is. It's King. And there's Sergeant Preston in the mouth. Sure enough. Hi there, Sergeant Preston. Hello, the rules. Hiya, King. Hiya, boy. Hello, Jane. How are you? Hello, Sergeant. Glad to see you again, Sergeant. Ah, and you, too, King. Aren't you a traitor, Muldoon? I sure am, Sergeant Preston, and I'm glad to meet up with you. Glad to know you. You couldn't have come at a better time, Sergeant Preston. Trader Muldoon has brought a whole boatload of trouble. Nonsense. Trouble? A car's old merchandise. I'm going to stock a store here at Level Landing. He plans to go into business in competition with Ezra Tazwell. Good. But Sergeant Preston, you don't know. I don't know what. Free men have tried to go into business here in Level Landing. And something's happened in every case. LaRue was baron trouble, Sergeant. I was just saying that anyone wanting to make trouble for me would have to get up early in the morning to outwit my dog, Danny. How soon do you plan to open your store? Just as soon as I can get her ready and go on over to Jim Billings to see about renting some vacant property. Ginny and I'll go along with you, Muldoon. I know of a couple of places I can suggest. Good. I wish you'd come along, Sergeant Preston. Now that you're in town, maybe the things that happen to the others won't happen to Muldoon. All right, I'll go with you. Come on, King. I'll see you all later, boys. You'll both be all right there, Mr. Muldoon. You'll bet it'll be all right. Didn't I leave Danny on board? No critters will go coyotes around that boat while it's big dance on guard. You have a lot of confidence in your dog. I sure have. I trust Danny with all I got in the world. In fact, that's what I'm doing. I don't say Dan's the best dog there is, but he's a mighty good one, and he's as loyal as the day is long. Constable LaRue and his wife led the way toward the center of town with Sergeant Preston and Muldoon following. A great dog king trodded at his master's side and then suddenly... What? Hold it. What's all the commotion back there? That's my dog on the deck of the boat. Look, someone's done talking. He's getting away. King, that man. Get him, King. Look at him go. Great take. That mighty dog can travel. I'll go after him and see what that man was doing on her boat. Racing after the man who had fled from the ship, King did not know why Sergeant Preston had said, Get him, King. The great dog didn't want to hurt the fugitive until he found out whether he was a friend or an enemy. He shouted a warning as he cut down the distance. Get away. Get away. Get away from me. In a final leap King dove ahead. His jaws closed on a boot heel.  The fugitive struck the ground and rolled and then King was on him bearing strong fangs. He issued throaty warnings to lie still until Sergeant Preston arrived. Hold him till I get there. Pull up this dog.  Kill me. Take him away. All right, King. Let him up now. Good work, fella. That dog is vicious.  Dog like that. What were you doing on Muldoon's boat? Nothing. Nothing, I tell you. Just let the water look around. You tried very hard to get away when Muldoon saw you.  Hold on to that critter. Don't let me go. Let me go first. Muldoon seems to have found something. The deck of his boat. You don't stop struggling. King might think you're fighting with me and take a hand. Your hand. That critter meant trouble. Look what I found. He's going to blow up Muldoon's boat. What have you there, Muldoon? The acid powder with a length of fuse all set to light. Who are you? What's your name? Got nothing to say. You took this powder aboard my boat. You'd have blown her up if the dog hadn't stopped you. Ah, you can't pull that thing. Careswell Muldoon was coming here with store goods. Did he send you to destroy that cargo? I'm not talking. It can't make me talk. Constable, you know this man? Never saw him before. Must be a stranger in level landing. Just passing through town. Thought I'd looked that boat over.  Man, listen. Watch it. He came after me. I suppose you don't even know, Careswell. By say, I never saw him. It can't prove different. Now, Constable, what are you and the money going to do about it? Why? Nothing. What? What, Sergeant Preston? There's nothing we can do, Constable. Put this blast in powder. I know he took it aboard my boat. No damage was done, Muldoon. You fella, you said you were just passing through town. I'll get started and keep going.  It's my cause of opportunity. That gut going. I'll keep going. The fine thing with a man gets knocked down almost true to pieces. The fine thing, that's all I got to say. That ordinary hook. I know he'd have blown my boat up if it hadn't been for Daddy. We couldn't have made a case against him, Muldoon. We probably couldn't have proved anything. But I'll bet all I've got that Ezra Careswell has already made the first move to keep Muldoon from opening a store. He's probably right, Constable. We'll have to be doubly watchful so we can make a case against Careswell when he makes his second move. Aided by Constable Aru, Traitor Muldoon secured the use of a vacant building and moved in the cargo from his vessel. As soon as he was ready to do business, the people of level landing flocked to his store. Meanwhile, Ezra Careswell had not been idle. At his request, two men called Deke and Barney met in the office of the Careswell Emporium. Barney? I've been going over my ledger. You owe me a lot of money. I know I do, Mr. Careswell, but I've been having hard luck. I don't like to hear about hard luck, so don't waste your breath. And you, Deke, do you any idea how much you owe me? Well, I'll tell you, Mr. Careswell, I... Well, I've asked you two to come here for two reasons. First, because I have a job for you, which is right in your line. Second, because you can't afford to turn this job down. What kind of a job? I'll lay two to one, I can guess the job. What's your guess? I've noticed crowds over at the Maldoon Place. I don't see no such crowds around here. Go ahead, Deke, you're on the right track. You want Maldoon out of business, is that it? Exactly. Now, hold on, Careswell. I know I owe you money. When you've done your job, I'll write it off. No, thanks.  I heard what happened to that man you hired to set off blasting powder on Maldoon's boat. Nothing happened to him. Preston's dog caught him. He was just lucky that the bounty couldn't prove anything. I might not be so lucky.  After he failed me, I sent him out of town. Careswell, it's dangerous to try anything while Preston and his dog are in town. That dog of his is tracked down more men than you can count. Oh, Deke is right. I don't want no part of murdering Maldoon while we got Preston to reckon with. Turn me down and you'll have me to reckon with. Furthermore, I said nothing about murdering the trader. Well, you said... I want you to get Maldoon out of business.  Just set fire to his place. But when? That big dog of his is around there. Go there tonight after the store's closed. Well, Maldoon and his dog sleep in the back room of the store. You can shoot the dog. You know the layout of the place Maldoon has rented.  Creep up to that window, shoot the dog, and start the fire. That old building will go up like tinder. A shot will attract plenty of attention. Besides, it'll awaken Maldoon. Quite of it. He'll be able to get out of the building, but he won't be able to put the fire out. The place will go up too fast. You got it all worked out, huh? I have. Well, you're forgetting just one thing. That Monty and his dog King are in town. That's right. Well, I've heard about that dog's true. He'll track us down in no time. What are you laughing at? Preston's dog tracking you down. You do as I say, and you'll have nothing to worry about. How's that? You make a beeline from Maldoon's place to the waterfront a quarter of a mile below the landing. I'll leave new clothes and shoes right near the big rock. Change to them, make a bundle of your old clothes, wait it with a rock and throw it as far out into the river as possible. But the dog will have our sand even if we do change clothes. The dog's nose will be filled with the scent of pine tar.  Boys, I have everything worked out to the last detail. You do as I say, and don't worry. We'll continue our story in just a moment. Say, tell me quick now, what do you think of right off when you hear these three famous words? Shot from guns. Why right away you think of delicious Quaker-popped weed and Quaker-popped rice? That's because these famous ready-to-serve breakfast cereals actually are shot from guns. They're exploded up to eight times normal size to make them bigger and better tasting. To make them crisp and tender as nuts in November. Yes, they're popped to perfection. And talk about flavor. Just pour out a bowlful, add some milk or cream and top with fruit like, say, sliced bananas. Mm-mm, there's a real treat. More important, long hours at school and play call for a hearty breakfast. And Quaker-popped weed and rice furnish added food values of restored natural grain amounts of vitamin B1, niacin and niacin. So how about it, huh? You'll be getting off to a flying start when you eat Quaker-popped weed or Quaker-popped rice. To get the original crisp, fresh weed or rice shot from guns, always buy the famous big Quaker-red and blue package. It's never sold in bags or bulk. And now to continue our story. Sergeant Preston, his great dog King, lived with Constable La Rue and his wife during their stay in level landing. King dozed before the fireplace, half listening to the conversation between his master and the local lawman. In the meantime, Deke and Vani, acting on instructions from Ezra Caswell, made their way through the darkness to the rear crater Muldoon store. The ground was clear of snow, but a brisk wind gave promise of a storm to come. Hold it, Vani. From here on, it's where we gotta be careful. You've got that tiny tear with a smear in our shoes. Right here. Help yourself. There's trouble just because that mountain isn't... It's a smart idea, though. When Preston's dog comes to the end of the trail that smells of pine tar, he'll be through.  You suppose that dog's as smart as people say? I don't know, but there's no use taking chances. We ought to shoot King as well as Muldoon's dog. Don't never make a mistake like that, Vani. Like what?  No one ever gets away with it. That dog is as much a member of the Mounted Police as Sergeant Preston himself. I guess I've got enough of this stuff on my shoes. Yeah, me too. Now, hang on to what's left, and we'll toss it in the window when we start the fire. It all set now? Yeah. The window over yonder looks into the room where Muldoon and the dog are sleeping. Let's get going. The two crept close to the building, Deke approaching a window of a small room in the rear of the store. The moonlight sliding into the room revealed Trader Muldoon on a bunk, and a big dog sleeping on the floor nearby. The dog hasn't stirred. Yes, he's not as much of a watchdog as Muldoon figured. Vani had gone to the front of the building to start the fire. Deke waited at the window, gun in hand, ready to shoot at the first sign of action on the part of Muldoon's dog. I'll wait till the dog moves, give Vani as much time as possible.  Maybe we can start the fire, get away before the dog wakes up. The seconds dragged. Then Danny heard a stirring in the store beyond the bedroom door. He sounded a warning, then looked at his master on the bunk. He growled louder. What's the matter, Danny? What's the trouble by? Danny! Danny! Muldoon raced to the window in which the shots had come. He saw a man's form running through the darkness. Come back here!  I'll get you for that! You just wait! As the Trader turned back to Danny, he found new cause for alarm. Fire! Red flames were looking at the front of the building. Flames that leaped high from a pile of oil soaked to waste, and sped rapidly fanned by the stiff breeze. Fire! The stars on fire! Help! Help! His dog was Muldoon's first concern. Got to get you out of here, Danny! Got to get you out, boy! The flames spread quickly, and Muldoon's dog was heavy. Gathering the furry bundled in his arms, he staggered to the rear door.   The smoke's getting bad. The dog was motionless in Muldoon's arms. The Trader fumbled with a latch. Get you out. Just a second. As Muldoon made his way from the building, choking with smoke and burdened by his dog, he saw many townsmen approaching from all directions.  A lot of sparks as they flow. We can't save this building. We can't give the fire from spreading. Sergeant Preston grasped the situation quickly and organized the townsmen to protect the building near us Muldoon's store. That's it. Then, with King at his side, he hurried to where Constable Aru and Muldoon were talking next to Muldoon's dog, lying motionless on the ground. My... my dog... We heard shots. There were two shots, Muldoon. Do you know anything about them? Yes. Yes, I do. Some honorary Polkats shot to the window. Got my dog. Did you see the man? Just a glimpse of him as he ran toward the river. Then he left the trail. My store is going up in flames. Can't do anything about that, Muldoon. The fire's got too much of a hold.   Sergeant Preston, take a look at Danny. See how bad he hurts. Aru can do as much for your dog as I can. Take charge of him, Aru. Right. I want to put King on the sand as soon as possible. Now, you say he stood by the side window and ran from there toward the river? That's right. All right, King. Come on, fellow. We have a job. Hanging is too good for the critter to chop Daddy. He made a mistake, Muldoon, and trying to get away with anything like that was Sergeant Preston and King are in town. King will run them down in no time. You just wait and see. Look, Aru. Danny has a sturd. Danny's hit hard. Do you think he's going to die? We can tell better when we get him to my place. Now, come on, Muldoon. The rest of the boys will take care of things around here. Sergeant Preston let his dog as close to the building as the plane could commit. The great dog picked up a scent near the window to which Muldoon's dog had been shot and followed the scent without difficulty to the edge of the river. Now what, King? Where'd he go from here, boy? His nose close to the ground, King hurried downstream along the bank and then returned downstream. All the while, he whimpered in frustration. Meanwhile, Sergeant Preston crouched to the ground and drew matches from his wardrobe box. The ground was frozen. Too hard to show tracks. The hard-packed ground revealed no sign of footprints. Preston examined the rocky shore. Then King came back and stood at his master's side. He tried to apologize for his failure. King was supposed to think the gunman got away by bolt, but he didn't, boy. The water's too shallow here and the rocks are too big. He came to the water's edge and turned and went somewhere else. King cocked his head to one side, trying to grasp the meaning of his master's words. Well, King, well... He knew what that meant. He knew what was expected of him now, but he was baffled and bewildered. He tried to find the scent, but he was gone completely. How could he tell the money that the strong scent of tar that had filled his nostrils had dulled his senses? What's the matter, boy? Can't you find the scent? Oh, I thought, oh, never mind. You've done your best. We'll go to LaRue's place, see how Moldoon and his dog are getting along. Come on! King followed his master dejectedly, head and tail low. He knew that he had failed in his assignment, but he felt ashamed. When he reached the constable's home, he went to a far corner of the room before. He lay there quietly, watching Preston, the constable, and traitor Moldoon. King did his best, but he lost the trail completely. The man who shot Danny went to the river, and there the trail ended. Maybe he got away by boat. He couldn't have used a boat and water like that. I think he doubled back. I'm sure he's still in this vicinity. Moldoon thinks there were two men. He thinks he saw a second man join the one who was running from the house just after the shots were fired. He don't care so much about the store, but the skunk that shot my dog. How badly has Danny hurt? Mighty bad. He may pull through, but it's critical. The dirty polecats. Oh, if I could just prove as well as Caswell was back in that chute. Did you track on him, LaRue? Ah, yes. As usual, his alibi is perfect. Ah, as it would be. Moldoon, I don't suppose you got a good look at the man who shot your dog. Nope. They wished the critter'd shot me instead of Danny. Poor Danny. I wonder why he didn't. I'll tell you why he didn't. He wasn't afraid. I'd know him the next time he saw him. He was afraid of Danny. Just a minute. A sharp cone in Preston's voice brought King to attention. I have an idea. Yes, King, it involves you, boy. What's your idea, Sergeant? I'm going to take King and start downriver following the shoreline. You think he can pick up the trail of that murder and crook? I'll try, Moldoon. And in the meantime, you and the constable are to circulate a story around town. What kind of a story? Moldoon's dog was just brushed by that bullet. Just slightly wounded. You wish that were so. Your dog will know the man who shot him. Poor critter's heart be conscious. Never mind that, Moldoon. You see that everyone, including Caswell, is made to believe that your dog will be all right in a day or two. We'll see what happens. Whatever you say, Sergeant. I'll have a look at your dog and turn in for a couple of hours' sleep. I want to start downriver early in the morning. Several people saw the moody and his dog start out the next morning and head along the shore downstream. Word spread that he was trailing the man or man who had set fire to Moldoon's store. Ezra Caswell heard the news and laughed as he sat in his office with Dee. The fact that he's gone downstream proves that he's lost the trail completely. I sure hope so. There's nothing to worry about, Deeke. Pine-tie, you and Vani put on your shoes, killed all other scents. We've outsmarted Preston and his dog. I sure hope that moody keeps going. Oh, don't worry about him. Hey, did you hear the news? About Preston? No, about Moldoon's dog. You didn't get him. What's that? I didn't.  I was sure I hit him. I saw him fall. You brushed him. You just scratched him. That's all you did. The dog saw you at the window. Why confound you, Deeke? You spoiled everything. Sure did. Moldoon, these dogs stay with LaRue. As soon as the dog is out, you'll be in danger. We'll all be in danger. You'll be a dead giveaway if the dog goes for you, Deeke. Deeke, you've got to finish your job. But I... You've got to go to LaRue's house tonight and put another bullet in that beast. And this time you must not fail. But the constable will be there and his wife and Moldoon. Well, I'll invite Moldoon over here to my store and talk to him about a partnership or something. I'll have him bring LaRue along. That'll leave only Mrs. LaRue in the house. That'll help. You won't have to worry about Sergeant Preston. He and his dog are a long way downstream and getting farther away all the time. That evening, found constable LaRue and Trader Muldoon and the Emporium as the guests of Ezra Caswell. Caswell was using his most junior manner. And gentlemen, just to show you that the Sisticians against me are unfounded, I'm going to post a substantial reward for the capture of the men who set fire to Muldoon's store and shot his dog. More than that, Muldoon, I'm considering a proposition for you, something whereby you can come into this store with me. Meanwhile, Jean LaRue was at home, sitting by the fire in one of the two rooms that made up the cozy house. She heard a sound and turned toward the door.  One move. His voice was muffled by the cloth. A gun. Sit still and be quiet. Another man whose face was concealed came into the room. What do you want? The dogs in the next room. Don't go in there. Go get the mutton, be sure you'll get him. He'll regret it if you open that door. Open it and shoot fast. The dog! The great dog king had been poised and waiting. As soon as the door moved, he charged, throwing the door wide and knocking Deek off balance. Deek's gun was thrown up as the powerful dog leaked as the hand that held it. The shot was fired into the ceiling and Sergeant Preston was right behind his dog, rushing in by. Oh, no, you don't! Here's another one! Your team, take charge of his gun. I'll get the other one.  Get him out of here. Get back, king. That's it, boy.  That's that dog. Here you come. I'll see what's under that nugget. No! It's Deek. Oh, now let's see who this one is. He's just regaining consciousness from that bull you gave him. There. Know him, Jean? Well, yes. His name is Barney.  You went down the river. He didn't stay there.   Though the Caswell store was closed for the night, Esra's office door was still unlocked, and Esra continued his role as a genial host. I hope you'll no longer think I had a hand in your misfortune. Something's going on outside. Look who's here. Sergeant Preston. Deek! Barney! Listen, boss, we caught him up. I'll do the talking, king. Guard those two. Caswell, you're through. What's that?  So king and I were waiting for it. We caught Deek and Barney in the act, and they've told all about you.  We had to do it. He didn't turn king on us. We hadn't talked. I'll arrest you, Caswell, in the name of the queen. Where are you, dirty cook? I am sorry. Steady, Muldoon. Steady, man. I sympathize with you. The law will deal with you, Caswell, and he'll pay him for.  Now, come on, Caswell. You're going to jail with your friends. That's right, king. Thanks to you, boy, the case is closed. In just a moment, Sergeant Preston will give you a preview of next Friday's program. Say, here's a tip. Quakerpuff wheat or Quakerpuff rice are never sold in bags or bulk. Not on your life.

Okay, right now we are here at Wat Yai Chai Mung Khon. Wat actually is mean temple in English, but in Thai we call Wat. And take a look over there, that one is the rekinding Buddha, see? So this Buddha image built by King Nale Sun is around 551 years ago. So, and this Buddha image built by the brick and then cement cover. And after that, wrapped by the orange or yellow rope. And you can take a look there. Rekinding Buddha actually belongs to the people who were spawned on Tuesday. Seven days, different Buddha, different collector of the Buddha. This is belong to Tuesday. Three incense, one offering to the Lord of Buddha. Second is for the Buddhist scripture, the holy scripture, and third for the monk. So, Buddhism, we don't believe in any gods. We don't believe in any gods, we don't have any gods. We just do believe in ourselves, you know. If you do the good thing, you also get the better thing back. Like, what comes around, it goes around. If you do very bad, you also get very bad thing back as well. And we also do believe in conolation, rebirth. If this lie, you do the good thing, next lie when you're back. You can be, you know, rich people, beautiful people, or wealthy people, whatever. And also Thai people, we also do believe in Buddhists quite strong. But we also like, you know, we are Buddhists as well. Actually, Buddhists, we don't believe in like, supernatural, right? But Thai people we do, we believe in supernatural as well. It's some kind of mixed Thai and Hindu too. So in Thailand, we've got many, many of Hindu influence. That's why you see many Thai people respect for Hindu gods. So normally, Buddhists, you don't have any gods. But, so in Thailand, like in the temple, or I think, I mean, like the style of the building, inside the temple, or in the palace, you know, all from Hindu influence, you know. And also we do believe, like Kanisha God, Shiva God, Paravati God, Indra God, you know, many kind of Hindu God, we also respect for, pay for as well. But not as the Lord of Buddha, the Lord of Buddha on top. And like you can see in every houses of the local people, you can see like the small temple beside the house, right? That one is not the way of Buddhists, but it's the way of Thai culture. That one we call the spirit house. We do believe some spirit who stays inside the small house will save our house from the bad luck. You know, all the bad spirits cannot go inside our house. So this is not the way of Buddhists, this is the way of Thai people do believe, yes. In Buddhists, the main thing of my religion is if you can find the way out, we must find the way out of the circle of light, rebirth, reverberation, right? So you have to find the way of the Enlightenment. If you can find the way to the Enlightenment, you know, it means you can find the way out of the circle of light. It means there's no more return, just disappear like our Lord of Buddha. So after the Lord of Buddha, you know, passed away, we don't know actually where he goes, but we just do believe he just roll out, no more return, just gone, that's it. This is the main thing of Buddhists, no more return. If you still stuck in the circle of light, you have to return again and again and again, we also do believe our Lord of Buddha, before he finds the way of the Enlightenment, before he came to the Lord of Buddha, he also returned around 500 times, turned back again and again, 500 lives. The last life he became to the Lord of Buddha and no more return, that's it. So they stick the belief, actually they can do anywhere of the Lord of Buddha, but some temple not allowed, but this temple not allowed, the people they do that for luck. Where are they doing that? Like, if you feel bad luck or not, you're like, is unhappy, you can do something like this, you know, so they do believe they're gonna get the good thing. So this building is built by King Ramachibodhi I, or the other name is King Uthong, it's early of Ayutthaya period. So this building was built before the Rikhani Buddha and that pagoda. So this temple, I mean it's only the Luins, nobody say inside here, around 400 years. So like after we got fight with Burma and we lose Burma burnt the temple in Uthaya and we lose and the people escaped from Uthaya, nobody say in the city of Uthaya like also this temple is 400 years, just only the Rukins, Rukins, nobody come here to rebuild. So we just rebuild around not more than 50 years, Ayutthaya. So, and this is boundary, see boundary stone. Boundary stone is mean let you know this area beside the building, this area is holy, holy place, right socket place, you can see that the people also stick the gold leaf along the Buddha. So any Buddha that you want or you can also wrap the yellow rope you know like in the building even along the Buddha it's up to you. The lepica of the feet of the Lord of Buddha, see the people they throw the coin in there for luck. So Naka is quite important in our Buddhist history because of we do believe when the Lord of Buddha he fight away of the enlightenment beside the river in India, so more than 2500 years something. So he sit beside the river and make meditation then the best spirit you know came to attack the Lord of Buddha. After that the Naka came from the river cover protect the Lord of Buddha from the spirit form sun form rain or anything. So you can see that one before Naka protect Buddha in India. This is Buddhist song feet of shark. This is the oil see so like me if I was born on Monday right I donate the money here this is Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, seven days it's donate the money which day that you were born donate the money here and after that you can light the candle because of we do believe if we donate the oil and light the candle is make your right make your life with shining sparkling happy. So this one this pagoda is the same name of the temple Chai Mokon. Chai Mokon is mean victory. This is being built by King Naresuan the great king of Ayutthaya. So King Naresuan he was you know strong, careful, smart king of Ayutthaya. So King Naresuan he built this pagoda because of he fight with prince of Burma and they use elephant they write on elephant and they use like the long sword fight together and King Naresuan he want he heal prince of Burma pass away after he want he built this pagoda is mean victory, victory then so because of the shape similar with the bell you see on top the shape like this is the bell shape is Ceylon Ceylanka yes and also in this temple before Yutthaya was our capital so many monks inside here they went to Ceylon to learn buddhist so our religion i mean buddhist similar not similar same with Ceylanka very same but we are a little bit different with China China Tibet you know Japan we are different so in Southeast Asia Thailand Cambodia Laos you know all similar with Ceylanka yeah so what about the oh buddha the buddha is just decoration is the kind of one at the corner one two three all new all new because of the original one was this fire this is after renovation so when was the renovation so this is not many time but this is not very long i think maybe a couple years ago before that is only the ruins no no head and broken or something yeah you see you see this cement why did it take very long for for it to be rebuilt why so long time because because of i think so not enough money because the many many temples in Yutthaya so and see the ticket that you pay for is only 20 baht and also fee for Thai that's why when you walk up to on top you you can't see anything it's like the hole the big hole because of the Pekoda in Thailand you know when the king built the Pekoda they contain some kind of wallet things inside like house juice or anything belong to the royal family inside you know so this is Wat Pa Si San Pet so this temple combined with the palace the palace is the other side so this one is built by King U Thong or the same king who built the first temple that we saw King U Thong or King Rama typically the first so this temple is the only one temple in Yutthaya no monk see no monk living here because of this temple is beside the palace even in the Royal Grand Palace and the temple of the Emperor Buddha in Bangkok now so they as well no monk living there and this temple is the most important temple in Yutthaya in the formal day and also Yutthaya was the kingdom of Thailand around 414 years old the longest capital of Thailand Yutthaya back of is the fourth capital this is second capital and you can see a couple of the Pekoda see the first one over here is built by King Rama Timothy the first keep the ashes of his father inside right and the second one in the middle side for his elder brother also used to be King of Yutthaya as well after he passed away he built this one keep the ashes of his brother and the last one belong to him but after he passed away his son access the throne after him keep his ashes inside before this temple is full of Chinese sparkling but after this toy by Burmese just only the ruins left see this temple and and the palace you know long time you know like maybe 400 years nobody looked after and also some people they do bad when they come to the temple cut the head of the Buddha for sale to the foreigner like the collection so right now it's after the government came here and restoration anything right now it's open for the tourists it's like touristic for history for tourists and this is the Pekoda along the temple they are high star but just support the building see here before before renovation and the money donate to rebuild the building some from the government of Burma some from government of thai together and build the building again so you can see the details of the Buddha so this Buddha he made his name is what along from the pit see 12.45 long high see 12.45 higher and also the base is 4.50 see that so from below until on top all together the Buddha is higher nearly 17 met this is not Burmese was this toy by somebody who needs some money you know because of before before the government came to look after you here obviously I just only the temple ruins no monk nobody look after that's why somebody some bad people come to the temple cut the head of elephant for sale also the hand carving this is the door of town so this is like the engines see who save the temple and on top the demon you see the faces the faces of the demon in the inside see that this is also like the portrait so save the Buddha from the bad spirit like when the bad spirit try to get inside and they saw the faces of the demon because scare you don't want to go inside yeah


فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيم الحمد لله رب العالمين ولا عقبة للمتقين ولا عدوان إلا على الظالمين وأصلي وأسلم على من أرسله الله رحمة للعالمين سيدنا والنبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد نحن في الثالثة أو الثالثة of زكات الفطر مسائل وأحكام نتحدث عن رسوصة أحناف أن أحنافهم وردت أو أردت الحديث لا صدقة إلا عن ظهر غينا نتحدث عن رسوصة أحناف وأن النفية في لفة الحديث يدلو على الكبال للصحة ونتحدث عنها ونقوم بردت أفهم أو أردت إبراحجة الله نتحدث عن رسوصة أحناف ونحن نتحدث عن رسوصة أحناف لا صدقة إلا عن ظهر غينا هذا رسوصة أحناف وأنه معارض للحديث الجمهور من المجاودي المجاودي المجمهور من المجاودي المجمهور ودليلهم أخصوا في بيانة حد للغينا في زكات الفطر Channel العكاة أكثر أكثر بأكتباق الإدارة وحياتة لأجل المجموع في ذكات الفطر وحديث أعطنا أن نمعه هو أجل حديث الحديث لأجل السلام عليه وعنده ما يُغنيه فإنما يستذكر من جمري جهنم قالوا يا رسول الله وما يُغنيه قال ما يُغنيه ما يُغديه أو يعيشه قالوا يا رسول الله وما يُغنيه قال ما يُغديه وما يُغشيه وفي لفظ يبدأود أن يكون له الشبع يوم وليلة أو ليلة ويوم الحديث where the Prophet ﷺ he said that which suffices him for his morning and his evening or that which fills his stomach day and night that is what's meant by and that is the definition and the evidence that the Jumhoor were using صحيح the third response to the hadith لا صدقة إلا عن ظهر غنان is that the Qiyas من يملك قوة يومه وليلة على العجزي مطلقا في عدم وجوب زكات الفطر عليه قياص مع ظهور الفرق the third is to make an analogy to the one who has his daily maintenance he has a day and a morning food to try to compare him to the one who has nothing unrestrictedly is really comparing with two that are different it is as the scholars of the أصولين they say قياص مع الفرق it is analogy when there is a difference so how could one compare the one who has his provision his daily provision to a person who is who doesn't have it how can you say they are both the same and that is not obligatory on either of them this is it is قياص مع ظهور الفرق it's analogy when there is a difference present now that we've spoken about the conditions of زكات الفطر when it's these conditions when it doesn't become obligatory we're now going to speak about what's the ruling of زكات الفطر ما حكم زكات الفطر وقد ثابتت فرضية زكات زكات الفطر بحديث ابن عمرين رضي الله تعالى عنهما the obligation of زكات الفطر we find it in the hadith of عبد الله بن عمر which is in صحيحين both of them are in صحيحين because I'm going to bring two of them فرض رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم زكات الفطر صاعة من تمرين or صاعة من شعير على عبد والحر والدكر والانثة والصغير والكبير من المسلمين وامر بها أن تؤدة قبل خروج الناس إلى الصلاة وحديث من عمر رضي الله تعالى عنهما أيضا قال أمر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بزكات الفطر صاعة من تمرين or صاعة من شعيرين so here we find the first hadith what did he say فارض رسول الله the messenger made it obligatory and the second hadith he said what أمر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم the prophet commanded so we know فارض is the same meaning according to the jumhoor of the scholars that is what فارض and وجبة is the same وجب and فرض are both the same according to the jumhoor except there's a difference between between it according to the Ahnaf the Hanafis they believe there's a difference and the command also is obligatory from the prophet and Allah when Allah commands something and the messenger commands something it shows obligation and there's no way to wiggle out of it it's obligatory for you to to come with it unless of course there comes an evidence and diverts it from that command and makes it what makes it recommended the Ahnaf they believe the difference between فارض and وجبة is that the فارض لا يثبت إلا بدليل قطعي they believe that the فارض can only be established the فارض can only be established on what on a clear cut undisputed evidence with me and I want you to read first so we really know that the Hanafis are the ones who took this أصول the جمهور they didn't even have this asan which is what the Ahnaf are the ones who when they divide the دلالات المصوص the دلالة of the نصوص they believe there are texts which are قطعي الثبوت and ضني الثبوت that's for them the جمهور they believe that the جمهور they take it is either what it is either a دلالة which is صريح or a غير صريح direct or indirect or it's an evidence when you look at it in terms of it's عمومية or it's خصوص generalization or specification and etc we don't get that's why the جمهور they believe what is known is دلالة المطابق دلالة التضم دلالة الالتزام and from دلالة الالتزام they believe دلالة الإشارة دلالة الإشارة and they bring from it دلالة دلالة الانتماع you see and etc the جمهور don't sorry the أحناف don't دلالة they bring you دلالة which is قطعي الثبوت and غير قطعي الثبوت so اي حناف you cannot force the opinion on your أصالة because the أصال here is different different according to the the جمهور and the أحناف and the أحناف the صول is different it is highly from the أصول of the other the other three sorry and they believe that ذكات it falls under ذكات الفطر it falls under what وجب that it doesn't fall under فرض because it's not a click evidence for them ابنو قدام رحمه الله he strengthens the opinion that it's that it's فرض and he brings the opinion he says رحمه الله وقال بعض أصحابنا فرضا مع قول بوجوبها على رواياتين والصحيح أنها فرض لقول ابن عمر فرض رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ذكات الفطري ولئجماع العلم على أنها فرض ولأن الفرض إن كان إن كان الواجب فيه واجبة وإن كان الواجب المتأكدة فيه متأكدة مجمع عليها ابنو قدام رحمه الله he says that it's can we call it فرض when there is an opinion out of that saying من قدام I said that can we that he said there's two there's two views within the manhap من the manhap الحلاب even though some scholars out there who are saying that it's wajib and that it's not فرض he said should we call it فرض or should we call it واجب based on that opinion out there he said the strongest is أنها فرضون that is فرض وائلي قولي بالعمر based on the hadith of عبدالله عمر عبدالله عمر specifically shows that word فرضه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم and then he mentioned إجماع he said إجماع العلماء على أنها فرضون and the scholars unanimously agreed that it's فرض and ابنو قدام is not the only one who transmitted that إجماع رحمه الله also ابنو المندر ابنو المندر رحمه الله he he transmitted an إجماع on this issue and as we said the إجماع of ابنو المندر and the إجماع of ابنو قدام it is it's a claim غير مسلمة it's a claim that is not surrendered for both of them because the last scholars out there who called it what سن مؤكدة highly recommended سنة and this is the opinion of the أهل الظاهر and the موت أخيرو المالكية and the lake comes from the Malikia they hold the opinion أنها سنة some even have gone to the further and they said what إنها منصوخة the زكات الفتر is abrogated زكات الفتر is actually abrogated and it's abrogated with what بزكات الأموال it's abrogated with the زكات that one has to pay يالي and the زكات that comes from his wealth the 2.5 زكات and the reason why they say that is because they say لأن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يأمر بها قبل النزولي آيات زكات that the professor Asselma he used to command the people to pay زكات الفتر before the verses of the زكات came down before the زكات زكات المال came down and they said فلما لزلت آيات زكات when the verse of the زكات came down لم يؤمر بها ولم ينه عنها the companies they were not commanded know where they prohibited from it so they say here abrogation so the statement of ابن المونذر and also ابن قدام المقدسة رحمه الله in claiming اجمع then it is دعوة it's a claim which is غير مسلمة which one cannot surrender for them المسألة الثانية now we're going to move on to the second matter now we've tackled the first matter we're now going to move on to the second matter it is المعنيون بزكات الفطر وترتيبهم we've talked about brothers in the first point the first topic the first matter the first مسألة the first issue that we spoke about was what that the زكات الفطر it is upon every Muslim who is who possesses the amount of زكات that is additional to his what is daily maintenance قوة يومه وليلتي and also that of his children because that's حد الغينا صحيح that was the definition of the غينا richness and this was the opinion of the who the جمور دون اعتبار we don't give no consideration في وجوبها نصاب زكات we don't look at it as a 2.5 زكات المال correct we mentioned that we tackled that in which point the first one now this ish now the second one is who is the زكات الفطر who is obligatory on you might think that question was answered no it's not who do I have to give زكات الفطر we've agreed on me but who is intended for my family members who do I have to pay on behalf of we all agree that the زكات الفطر تجيب على المسلم في ذاتي first of all the Muslim everyone has to pay for himself and it's also obligatory وعن كل من تجيب عليه نفقته شرعا and anyone you have to pay you have to fund in the Sharia the Sharia I commanded you you have to pay for the زكات from the Muslims of course لقرابة whether they are relatives or زوجية or whether it's a spouse or milk or if it's a slave that you own and the evidence for that is the Hadith of عبد الله بن عمرين رضي الله تعالى أمر رسول الله اسلاء الله عليه وسلم بصدقة الفطري عن الصغير والكبير والحر والعبد من من تمونون وحديث عباه ريرا رضي الله وتعالى عنه أن رسول الله اسل الله عليه اسلاء الله ليس في العبد صدقة except for these two hadiths the first one of the two which is a Hadith narrated by عبد الله بن عمر رضي الله وتعالى عنه one has to know أن هذه الحديثة تكلمت من ألمام الدارة قطني بيحقي وشق للباني أنه تعتقد أنها تكون ساعدة في كتاب إرواء الغليل هناك أخرين who are trying to weaken this narration لكن هذه الحديثة لا تعتقد أنها ساعدة إنها ساعدة وإن شاء الله أتعالى أتمنى أن أردت تحديث في هذه الحديث لأنها ساعدة أتمنى أن هناك الكثير من التحديث عن ذكات الفطر وإن شاء الله أتعالى هذه الحديث ساعدة بسدقة الفطر وإن شاء الله أتعالى بسدقة الفطر لأنه بحافظه عريس صغير والكبير والحر والعبدي والسلايف والسلايف من من تمونون والذين يجب أن يقوم باستخدامهم يجب أن يقوم باستخدامهم تمونون are those who financially support you financially pay for them يعني شر عدل you have to underline that point تمونون because it's imported something is going to come out of it there وحديت أبو ريرا تربي الله وأن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال ليس في العبدي صدقة إلا صدقة الفطري حديت أبو ريرا يقول أن العبدي صلى الله عليه وسلم أنه ليس على السلايف صدقة إلا صدقة الفطري لذا حديث عبد الله يبر عمر لدي مفهوم مفهوم is what I don't have to pay ذكات الفطري لا يجبوا إخراجها عن الأصول والفروع إن كانوا أغنياء I don't have to pay for my my my lineage the ones that I came from and the ones who have come from me I don't have to pay for them if they are rich I don't have to good also what do we take ولا عزوجة اللم يتخل بها and he also doesn't have to pay for and he also doesn't have to pay for what and he doesn't also have to pay for a wife he hasn't entered onto yet why لأنه لا تلزمه فقطها because he doesn't have to do she's not from the what من منت مولونة those he has to if a man marries a woman and he hasn't entered onto her he still doesn't have to pay for he still doesn't have to pay for her ذكات وإنما تجب but the ذكات is obligatory on what on his wife let's pay for her it's a divorce but the divorce here is a divorce where he has to take her back it's called غير بائن it's a divorce where he has to take her back he hasn't thrown all through through her if he's thrown all through her does he have to pay for her ذكات الفطري so what we need to understand is أن كل من كل من لا تجب عليه فقط هو كثير من هذه الحديث هو كل من who is not obligatory on you to provide for them لا تلزموا ذكاتوا ذكات الفطري ذكات الفطري is not obligatory on you those you don't provide for them you don't financially support them it is not obligatory on you to what it is not obligatory on you it is not obligatory on you it is not obligatory on you to pay for the ذكات الفطري إلا مستثناه الدليل except that which the evidence has given an exception to إلا مستثناه الدليل except that which the evidence has given an exception to we just said right now the woman if he divorces at 3 does he have to pay for her finished right what about she is pregnant this is an exception now إلا مستثناه الدليل because the eye says if they are أولاة حملين فأنفقوا فأنفقوا عليهم حتى يضعنا حملهن if they are pregnant if they are pregnant the women that you divorced الله تباركه تعالى he says فأنفقوا عليهم give to them حتى يضعنا حملهن until they they release their load وإن كانتنا she is a tan what about if the wife is rebellious she is rebelled on her husband she is disobedient towards him she is not listening to him فلا تجيب عليه فترطها بلا خلاف he does not have to pay for her as well she is rebellious she is not adhering to him then he does not have to pay for his and he said there is no خلاف and he said this is not a Khilaf and he is not ready to pay for it he paid 116 he brings that that the woman who is rebellious the husband does not pay for her she has to pay for her she has to pay for herself she has to pay for herself also the scholars unanimously agreed upon على أنه لا يخرج عن زوجته الكافرة if he is married to a woman who is a kafera if a man is married to a disbeliever woman which he can a woman from the people of the scripture is married to a Christian or a Jew it is permissible for the man to marry لا يخرج عن زوجته he does not pay for his wife here أنه فقطها because he she falls under those who he provides for because he has to provide for her as well he does not pay for her because we spoke about the issue before we spoke about it there is no Khilaf what? of course he says there is no Khilaf as he agreed upon the scholars there is no Khilaf on the fact that he doesn't have to pay for her he doesn't have to pay for her she has to believe that she has to pay for herself what? the reason for this is what لوجود دليل نص in أوليج معا there is evidence or there is a in this particular issue there is a text and evidence for that in this particular issue if I now ask you who are the معنيين بزكاتل فطري who are the ones who are meant by the زكاتل فطري we mentioned we expanded on that right and we explained that properly correct brothers Yunus isn't that the case صح that's the case هيفة الله نعم how is the sequence of paying it now و ترتيبوه ترتيبو المعنيين you told us who he has to pay for we now understand who he has to pay for the زكاتل فطري but what is the order منجيهة الأولوية in the sequence he has to pay for this specifically arises my brothers إذا لم يكن ما يفيل جميع if the person doesn't a lot of the time this occurs and it needs to be understood when the person doesn't have the ability to pay for everybody but if he does then it is not it is going to be for everybody right but if the person doesn't have the ability to pay for every single person فإنه يبدأ بنفسي he starts with himself first you always have to start with yourself the evidence for that is the hadith we previously touched on we previously said ابن مسلم narrated it من حديث يجابر من عبدالله رضي الله و تعالى عنهما which is ابدأ بنفسك start with yourself and then after that ثم بمن تعوله and then after that you go for those who are who you provide for حديث صحيح مسلم الحديث يجابر من عبدالله رضي الله و تعالى عنهما so first you start with yourself and then you start for those who you provide for but who you provide for you still haven't explained to us how they are in order isn't that the case so now we have to say the scholars اختلافوا they differed في أولوية من العلو the ones you provide for who comes first in sequence ابن قدامة المقدس رحمه الله he said the wife comes first are you with me then he said the slave then the mother then the father then the closest to the closest and family relatives meaning he says you have to follow the ترتيب of the miracle the inheritance after that once you go to the father after that onwards you look at the inherited how they inherit to you who is the closest to you and he used as a proof as an evidence he said that the فطرة is based upon what on those you provide for because he said بمنت عولو he said that's what it's under it falls under he said that the person who the man provides for the most is his wife are you there and he said the slave comes next and then he said that the mother and the father come because the majority of the time the mother is provided by the father then he put the mother before the father based on the حديث of the حديث of the professor which the professor when he was asked من أبر who should I be most kind to قال أمك يا مدى قال ثم من then who قال أمك يا مدى قال ثم من and then who قال أمك يا مدى قال ثم من and then who قال ثم أباقي يا فادا and then from this the mother comes before the father and then it comes relative after relative are you with me ابن قداما also brought that it could be possible that the father goes before the mother as well it could be possible as well because there's an argument out there which is yeah the reason why he said that the father could be possible is because that the professor was said to the man أنت وما لك اللي أبيك you and your wealth are for your father are you there so if my wealth is owned by my father then he should go take it first that possibility is also there after the father whichever those two we take whoever we put first mom or dad but the strongest to be in the mother first لماذا because the mother is ضعيف عن الكسب the mother is weak she can't bring her own income she's unable to are you with me and also that the religion he commands البر obedience to the mother first so for those two evidences she should come first then after that the grandfather should go first then the closest the closest the closest in the asadat in the mirat in the inheritance


It's no secret that Bobby Burns has been on this downward spiral ever since he moved to Los Angeles and there's a lot, a lot that has to do with mental health and this is actually some things that might be able to help you or someone that you know. What is up everybody? This is Chris from the Rewired Soul where we talk about the problem but focus on the solution and if you're new to my channel, my channel is all about mental health.  So if you're into that kind of stuff, make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell. So yeah, I am going to be talking about Bobby Burns in Los Angeles but my videos aren't for Bobby Burns. My videos are for YouTubers. I try to take the content that you're already consuming and try to see if there might be something that you can relate to and then we talk and have some suggestions and see if there's something that is affecting you as well because the chances of Bobby Burns seeing my video are slim to none the chances that you're gonna see my video are 100% because you're actually watching it right now. So I hope there's some lessons that you can learn from this video. This is something where I'll be showing my own personal experiences as well as experiences I've seen with a lot of other people. So this has to do not only with the places you are but also the people that you're hanging out with alright. So those of you who don't follow Bobby Burns or Shane Dawson just a little bit of a backstory. Bobby Burns has been a creator on the platform for I think he said like 10 years something like that and he made a video hating on Shane Dawson and Shane Dawson ended up seeing it and making like a three part mini series back before he made like his eight part series and he made a little mini series about confronting his hater and him and Bobby you know met up and they talked and then you know Bobby went back home to Nashville Tennessee. So shortly after that Shane and Bobby talked and Bobby wanted to move out to Los Angeles and work with Shane and get something going. By the way this is really funny because Memology 101 is another channel here on YouTube and like I don't know I don't know what our relationship is I like the guy he does a lot of in-depth research but anyways if you want to see the rise and fall of Bobby Burns just go watch the Memology video I will link it down in the description below but it shows the entire journey and just I remember watching it the other night and I was just like oh my god oh my god so just to give you guys a point of reference this is Bobby before moving to Los Angeles. Now here like helping make some of it and it's like I'm enjoying myself it's fun oh wow it's about boobs and butts I follow so many twerking pages on Instagram what I love twerking I love moody that's great why the f*** am I being so judgmental of that it's just someone making content that people happen to like. So when it comes to the case of Bobby Burns like there was there was a long time there was a long time when I'm like I got a lot of empathy I could definitely relate I'm like okay you know he's trying to find his you know the right creative outlet especially after what happened with Shane Dawson series and you know he wants to be more creative and even though I wasn't a fan of his music I'm like okay man do you like whatever like I just I'm a huge huge huge person about like just find something that you love doing and do it you know what I mean like I said even though his music isn't for me like it's for other people and if he loves doing it do that but the issue is is that it's completely changed him so what I want to talk about is if those of you who have followed my channel for a while you probably saw the video I did about Garrett Watts and a geographical so I will link that up in the info card but anyways the geographical is when you leave like your city or state because you have a bunch of problems right your mental health it's terrible your relationships all this stuff and you think that moving to another city or moving to another place or even as another side of town or sometimes it's even moving a job it's gonna help right but the problem is no matter where you go there you are so in this video we're gonna be talking about something I like to call a reverse geographical where Bobby needs to get the hell up out of Los Angeles all right so yeah something that I do is I watch people and I see how they are improving or kind of like falling down a slippery slope it's something I've had to do working in addiction treatment and you know a lot of people have mental health issues and all of that and I have to watch them and see how they're doing see how they how they're progressing and I am here in Las Vegas and something that I would do because we would get a lot of clients from out of state right a ton of clients from out of state something I would always tell people is listen very carefully okay if there is even a 1% chance that going back home is gonna lead to a relapse you shouldn't go back home and Las Vegas has a ton of amazing resources for staying sober and that sounds ridiculous but it's true so I would tell people like you know stay in Las Vegas there's a bunch of resources I'll help you find a sober living but I had some people who would come out here and stay in Las Vegas and this city would just eat them alive right they would just keep relapsing to get kicked out of sober living I've had people living on the streets that I've run into at the grocery store down my house I'm like what the heck is happening right and there's a certain point where I have to tell them like yo you cannot handle Las Vegas you need to get out of here right and sometimes that's not even going back home but sometimes it's just this city is not for you then that's kind of what I'm seeing with Bobby Burns he he cannot handle Los Angeles and this isn't a knock at Bobby Burns but it kind of is it's more tough love like this is for a lot of you like Bobby Burns is young he's in his like mid-20s I believe some of you are younger than that like sometimes we're just not mature enough to have that type of freedom you know like for me personally I'm an addict in recovery and Las Vegas was eating me alive I had to get out of here I had to get out of Las Vegas but eventually I moved back here right but I would have had to be very careful and look for the signs if this city was going to take me back down again so I'm actually going to link another video up in the info card and probably in the end screen too so I have a second channel that's all about addiction so if you want to hear about how I stay sober in Las Vegas make sure you go check that out but like some of us just can't do it and some of us need to go somewhere else so like I find people I'm like okay look you can't handle Las Vegas okay going back home is a bad idea because you have a toxic family or whatever it is um well here how about this other place right maybe like Oregon or the east coast or whatever it is but in Bobby's situation like man like I'm seeing this from him and I'm like is his family worried about him like are his friends worried about him Jordan was worried about him they're no longer together and I'm just watching this kind of downward spiral and it's like he just can't handle Los Angeles maybe he needs to take this venture somewhere else and that's the thing like a lot of people want to go live that life and they want to succeed because LA and all this other stuff and like some people just can't handle it but this kind of brings me to my second topic okay we need to change the people that were around something that Tristan and I were actually talking about that I've noticed and she's noticed too is Bobby has lost like his support group like I remember watching Bobby right around the Shane Dawson time and he had his girlfriend Jordan right when he went out to meet Shane Dawson he had his brother there and him and his brother like they did a lot of projects together you know and Bobby has other siblings but when he was back in Tennessee he had a lot of friends and they would do stuff together and make videos together and all of that and when he first moved to Los Angeles he was like getting all his friends involved and everything and it was like okay cool like Bobby's trying to take his success and give it to some of his friends and all of this right and like over the past few months as we've seen Bobby kind of you know start slipping where is everybody right we haven't seen his brother at all Jordan's gone we haven't seen any of his friends that he was making all those collabs with so what's happening and uh you know in Bobby's situation speculation but I can tell you from my personal experience right I I made a video the last time about Bobby Burns and said stop enabling him right well I had a bunch of people who would enable me and they would tell me things that I didn't want to hear they were trying to keep me accountable they were trying to get me on the right track I didn't want to hear from them so what I did was I found a different group of friends who didn't give a crap about me and just let me run wild and do whatever I wanted to do and that's something I'm worried that you might be doing that's something I'm worried that Bobby might be doing right because you don't see those other people like the rocks in Bobby's life around anymore and he's going further and further further off and it breaks my heart too because I actually have experience with my best friend dying because of something similar like this I made a video a long time ago about losing my best friend to addiction and even though I was still in my active addiction like um I don't know I knew that she had a problem and she got into a a car accident and it almost killed her and I was worried about her and all that stuff and I had to like start like getting real with her I'm like girl you got to get your stuff together you got to get your stuff together then my best my other best friend like she had to tell Courtney too like you got to get your stuff together and we both had to distance ourselves away from her and many other people had to distance ourselves away from Courtney but all Courtney did was find people who would enable her behaviors and at 24 years old she passed away right and that's something that I held a lot of guilt over you know even still to this day but like the guilt is is different I've learned to you know heal and forgive myself and stuff like that but one of the worst parts about mental illness and stuff is like you can't force anybody to change right and sometimes it's something I've taught you guys about boundaries it's like sometimes you got to separate yourself from the other person just for your own mental stability so when I see Bobby and what he's doing I had a bunch of comments on the last one like thinking that I said like you can overdose on weed which I said that you can't and I've even made pro marijuana videos I don't know but anyways like you I'm worried that he's going down that path and he's hanging around people who just want to be around him because he smokes because he parties because he acts crazy and all those other things right and and that's worrisome especially for young people like like I said in my last video about Bobby Burns what breaks my heart what breaks my heart is every time a young person passes away every time anybody passes away where people see it coming from miles and miles and miles away but other people are shocked by it right and that's where my concern is about Bobby Burns but that's where my concern is about you and you might have friends who are doing this you might have friends who you've had to cut out of your life or they've stopped hanging out with you because they're hanging out with a bad crowd but anyways this is some stuff that I want you to really think about but anyways I have a couple other videos planned because there's some topics just about finances and relationships that I want to talk about with Bobby and Jordan because I know a lot of you can relate I had a bunch of those troubles too but anyways that's all I got for you with this video so let me know down in the comments below like have you had to get out of somewhere because the city was just bad for you have you had to leave like let me know down in the comments below all right or or here's a second one here's a different question so I answer this one if you would like maybe both like have you purposely hung out with people who enable you because the other friends would tell you what you needed to hear not what you want to be here right they give you that tough love so let me know down in the comments down below let's have a conversation okay but anyways that's all I got for you with this video if you like this video please give it a thumbs up if you're new make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell and a huge thank you to everybody supporting the channel over on Patreon you are all amazing and I have linked the other video over on my other channel about how I stay sober in Las Vegas a city that is designed to kill me so go and check it out right now all right thanks again for watching I'll see you next time


Lesson 337 My sinlessness protects me from all harm. My sinlessness ensures me perfect peace, eternal safety, everlasting love, freedom, forever, from all thought of loss, complete deliverance from suffering. And only happiness can be my state, for only happiness is given me. What must I do to know all this is mine? I must accept atonement for myself and nothing more. God has already done all things that need be done, and I must learn I need do nothing of myself for I need but accept myself, my sinlessness created for me, now already mine, to feel God's love protecting me from harm, to understand my father loves his son, to know I am the son my father loves. You who created me in sinlessness are not mistaken about what I am. I was mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept atonement for myself. Father, my dream is ended now. Amen.


Hello my people, welcome to the internet's welcome to the score channel on the internet's isn't that fun? This is us right now. I hope you guys are having a good day and Welcome back. We're gonna be doing another live stream tonight Just like we have less several months in a row on Monday And we're gonna be doing something similar to what we did a couple of weeks ago a couple weeks ago I did a video on how to write a College supplemental essay the why this university essay and so today We're also gonna be doing the same kind of thing But today we're gonna be focused on the why this major essay Okay, a lot of universities are gonna ask you to write this kind of essay this essay that explains why you have chosen Your particular major or why you have chosen a particular program and also sometimes they call this the statement of purpose So essentially, that's what we're writing here. It goes by different names, but it's all the same kind of content Okay, so what we're gonna be working on is this essay and I want to explain to you guys how we're gonna do it Just like we did a couple weeks ago So I think before we start it's important to understand a couple things about this essay and what it's for So again the typical prompt and I'm gonna show you the prompt that actually inspired me to do this again I've been helping people left and right this week as we got a big deadline coming up and The one that stood out to me was this one from the University of Cincinnati So let me zoom in on that a little bit for you and get it where you can see it So this says here that students must also submit personal statement in response to the following prompt at approximately 500 words Why did you apply to each of the academic programs listed on your application? Should have provided additional information not already referenced in your application. So this is an important detail We are trying to provide additional information another perspective on ourselves We're not just trying to like Restate what we've already said in our personal statements or our other essays We want to make sure that we really explain why we've chosen these programs in particular Again, you can see this presented in a number of different ways. Sometimes it's why did you choose this major? give us a statement of purpose explaining why you chose this but If they're asking you why you've chosen that particular program or why you want to study what you want to study Then this is the essay you have to write So let's write an essay Again, I'm gonna be doing this sort of for myself right as if I were doing that We're gonna assume that my major is education and so what I want to do with this I mean I'm big in that a little bit for you So what I want to do again as always before we write anything We should always outline our work and get a good idea of what we want to say So I kind of think that this is a good place to do maybe three or four paragraphs I'm gonna work up to about that five hundred word count approximately today. That's the typical number that I see So we're gonna target that And what I want to start with is How did I come to decide that I wanted to study this like what's the origin story, right? Why? Or maybe how did I? That's that's sort of where we want to start the origin story is how did I discover that I wanted to study this? How did I when did I first have that realization that like this is what I want to do? This is what I want to learn about I Think that's a complex question that everybody has to think about and and if you've already covered a lot of this in your personal statement, okay, then We can also focus more on other areas, so I'm gonna give you some of those other areas that I think are important so I think another thing that we can do is To describe a little bit of what we hope to achieve, right hopes and dreams and goals and stuff so The hopes and dreams and goals are sort of thinking future forward. What do we want to accomplish after we graduate? What else do we think we can do with this degree? Okay, so that's gonna be another thing because obviously if you choose to study a particular subject You're doing it in hopes of eventually working or exercising that profession So you should talk about that you should explain what you hope to accomplish down the road with this studying that you're doing So we got our kind of origin story and and again, there's different ways I can present this origin story Maybe I can go for a personal experience. Maybe I can look at a problem In society that caught your attention and that made you more aware that we need support in this area You know, I don't know there can be different ways that you can approach this But I mentioned this so that you can think about other ways to differentiate it from your personal statement If your personal statement already covers your personal experiences Well, then maybe you shift to a problem in society and vice versa If you focused on a problem in society for your personal statement talk about your own personal experiences change it up That's important So with my hopes and dreams and goals. I want to think about like future career possibilities You know, maybe community engagement. We talk about that a lot here That's really important community engagement being like, you know, are you gonna do something good for the community? How are you gonna give back? I think that's something that we should all genuinely care about and not just put in here because it looks good I know that's tempting sometimes So that's gonna be kind of part two is is the hopes and dreams and goals and then specifically why this major at this University and this is where we're gonna go back to what I said two weeks ago We want to talk about courses professors or any any clubs Groups that enrich this area of study. Okay, so that's our outline This is essentially what we want to try to accomplish So I want to just review this one more time. We've got our origin story or how we figured out that we want to study this major I think this is really important because we have to show them that we seriously mean it that I Didn't just pick business because I didn't know what else to study I didn't just pick a you know becoming a lawyer because I want to make money like what Inspired you to choose this you're about to dedicate four or five years of your life to it So you better have a good reason and then what do you hope to accomplish down the road? What do you think you will do with this when you are done? And this is where you can transition into the university a little bit too by talking about maybe How they have the environment that you need to do that. Okay, think about that as well And then the specific stuff about that university So again, this is where we want to show off our research because again these essays Usually are specific to each university. So even if you have four or five Essays that ask you the same question four or five essays that ask you about your major You can't just copy paste them all You need to differentiate them a little bit. I know it's work. I know you got deadlines coming up I know the last thing that you want to do is write five of these but look you can reuse this part Recycle this that's going to be the same for everybody. That's you that doesn't change but This major at this university That's where you really want to make sure that the university knows that you want to be there and that you are Ready to do it and commit it. So that's what we're gonna work on today all right, so I'm gonna stick to my education major and I'm gonna try to come up with my origin story a little bit here to get started All right, and I'm gonna shrink this down a little bit just because now it's kind of big and I don't like writing that big I'm gonna drop these down a couple lines, too. So you guys can keep it up here. All right, so For me, I want to go back to like the first time that I ever thought about being a teacher, right? All right, so I'm just starting out here with like a little intro paragraph And I think I'm gonna break up this first part into a couple paragraphs here Don't worry too much about paragraph structure in this kind of an essay even though I have three items here I wouldn't suggest three paragraphs and the reason why is because It's probably gonna be more than let's say 400 500 words if this was a 250 word essay Then yeah, maybe three paragraphs is fine like this would be a full third of that right now at 85 But if I am doing a longer one and I am aiming right now for that 500 word count I'm probably gonna break some of these sections into multiple paragraphs because in this day and age If you have a paragraph that's longer than a hundred words It's kind of a lot like you gotta understand that we're living in 2021 and these days the internet uses very small Paragraphs very small pieces and that's what these people are used to reading. They're not used to reading a wall of text So don't give them one. So even though this is still my introduction and I still want to keep going I'm gonna break it up into another paragraph. Oh And this is a true story by the way, this is a hundred percent true story my Grandpa and my dad were on the phone for like an hour him just trying to explain this basic task My grandpa was like 80 and my dad is like, you know, 40 something at the time And he just couldn't get him to do it. He was just screaming into the phone He's like Because he was trying to tell me to click the browse button to find the file. It was pretty funny All right, so I think I've spent enough time on my intro here I'm already at about to let's see here about probably about 200 ish close 185, okay, so yeah, it's time to start transitioning into This kind of futuristic stuff what I hope to do with this stuff. So right here again I've just sort of established that I had this natural inclination towards education And and that I was good at it, but I didn't really know what I was doing I was just I was good at teaching stuff, but I had no idea why about 290 320, okay, we're going a little farther. All right, so again, I'm trying to get into this idea of What I think is important about education or what I hope to do with it in the future And I'm alluding to that by explaining here that, you know, I see this problem in in education about teachers that are Lacking in patients lacking in self-awareness lacking, you know confidence and security and how that affects us and That the system is kind of broken and I want to I want to change that That's that's the sort of big picture statement here This is why I want to study this because I want to be that teacher that doesn't make you feel anxious and insecure But rather makes you feel empowered and makes you feel strong And I think that's the sort of reason for being that I have had an education in my life And obviously I'm saying this after having taught for many years, but this is the same concept This is what I want you to think about like why are you doing this? What for? You should have a good reason and sometimes you got to stop and think about that reason sometimes it's not Right there in your head writing it down is one of the best ways So I think I have covered this stuff to a degree I'm not going into deep specifics here because the length of this I wanted to focus a little bit more on my big goal Which is I want to change this system that has a lot of teachers that I think do more harm than good so Now we get into this stuff And this is going to be similar to what I told you about a couple of weeks ago But the first thing I need to do is take a look at some courses Okay, I need to find like I'm going to use this University of Cincinnati one Let's see if we can find some courses campus majors and programs All right, let's take a look we're going to do a little bit of research All right, I think it's just search. I haven't searched it yet. So it shouldn't be research research would suggest that I've Done it again. Um Let's just search education and see what we get Apparently everything is education at the university. All right educational studies. That's that's probably what we're looking for That's a master's. Do we have a bachelor's? No, that's a doctorate. Okay. Um, so Again, this is why it's also important for you to check this stuff because you need to make sure that you are Taken like that your course exists and everything. All right. So those are the Let's see Gifted education Certificate. All right of education Education leadership. That's a graduate certificate. Let's get a fine one in here. I could also go with psychology That's a good basis for education So pre-secondary education Let's go back to Let's go to bachelor. Yeah, let's filter those a little bit. All right So we have early childhood education that could be a good one Yeah, if I wanted to go with like younger I don't like working with younger kids, but I mean I could use that for the sake of this example Um Let's see. Oh, okay. Here we go. We're starting to get into some of the more secondary. Okay, so they have specialized ones. Nice Okay, so I think I would have to be very specific here. This is good This is another thing to remember is this is another reason why you cannot copy paste these things if you Oh, hey, what's up? What's up, dude? Good to see you. Welcome to the party. Thanks for saying hi Um, yeah, you cannot copy paste these things because imagine that you copy pasted this from another university And like they don't have the exact program that you were talking about over there or that There's is much more specific in this case. I if I had to choose any of these I'm going to choose the english language arts secondary education program. So This is the thing like each university presents stuff differently You got to make sure that your information is specific. So let's let's take a look at this one. We're doing the graduation requirements all coursework and program requirements. Let's see what those are. Can we find that stuff? Yeah, okay. Yeah, we know what those are going to be Curriculum, there we go. That's what we're looking for. All right. See that didn't take me too long. Did it now? All right, so Again, I want to drop some course names if I can find any information about these that'd be even better But let's just start with like, you know, some of these basic things Let's take a look at what introduction to education educational technology Individuals with exceptionalities. That's an interesting one. All right pre-adolescent throughout adolescent development All right, that could be a good one for me to mention Um, I'm going to start grabbing some things here Like I want to get the title of this and get that into my document And then this guy, let's see. We got Free electives reading literature Diverse classrooms. I think I could mention some of this stuff. That would be good Um American journalism All right, adolescent stuff. I like that. There's adolescent literature and like adolescent. I'm going to maybe take some of those Um There was the other one here about adolescent development, which I think is also important for me So again, I just want to drop a few course names that I can talk about to kind of make my You know my my essay really show that I understand and really want to talk about this university or this program at this university So now that I got those details down there Uh, let's get to it. So So Let's let me see where my word counts at. I feel like I'm getting close 416. Okay. All right, and then All right, so what I've done here is again just given a ton of specific information about The specific major at the university of Cincinnati And I did that by just again looking up their programs choosing the one that I want Finding three courses from their curriculum and then, you know, leveraging that into why I think those would be useful for me Why I think those would be important That is essentially what I want to do when I want to get to this part of Like why this major at this university is not just why this major. It's why this major because Every university's major is different. That's something you have to understand. They're not the same Two universities can have the same major with the same title and have two very different curricula So When they ask why this major they're asking why our major Why our program That's what they're asking you for So I think I've covered a pretty good amount of that and I think that I can kind of, you know proceed forward now Again, if we're thinking of this as a why this major why studying this or a statement of purpose I always want to be thinking forward. I want to be thinking into the future You know, I want to explain where my interest came from with those first two paragraphs But then I want to look at the future. What else can I do? You know, so I like to finish off with a little bit of like an optimistic forward thinking idea Where can I conclude this with something that, you know, speaks to what I think I can do in the future I work 505 I gotta cut five words. Let's cut five words. Okay, so Something you can always look for is this There is supposed to just became a should that killed two words I could do this many many teachers who I think that was enough 499 you love to see it Okay, my people that is all there is to it. Look, let's just go over what I've done again here for a moment So I am starting out with my origin story how I discovered that I wanted to study this and I went with a personal experience I chose that Because I may be in my personal statement. I talked more about a problem. I want to make sure I don't repeat myself They're gonna see more than one essay. So it's important for you to You know, make sure you diversify your essays Um, I talk a little bit about what I would like to see here. What problems I want to solve I started out with this intro story I then went to like how it affected me and how I would later Experiment with teaching and then here I get into some of the problems that I see in education that I want to solve And so I think by doing that I have made it clear how I got this idea in the first place I've made it clear what I want to do with it And then I need to go into the major and how the major is going to help me do that So I did this whole paragraph about specific courses available at this university with this program It's extremely important that you have the full name of the program and the university And names of specific courses. You've got to get specific here. Just like I talked about two weeks ago I finished it up with just a little positive feeling conclusion. I think in a 500 word essay I have the space to do that now if I only had You know 250 words I would probably synthesize this down to even less than 85 I would keep a lot of this stuff if I could Definitely this has to stay and I could probably finish it here So if I just take these two paragraphs, I'm sitting at about 200 words I could trim this down and get 50 out of that and be done So you can see here some of the extra content that I have added I have a little bit more reflection a little bit more, you know forward thinking aspirations But if I were to do this in 250, I would just get my cool intro that explains where this idea came from I would focus on the problems I want to solve and then I would focus on the major You know all these questions come together to really form a coherent essay that I think will leave them thinking Okay, this person really does want to study this and that is Ultimately the goal of this essay my people I think if there's one thing I can leave you with it's this to understand Admissions officers want to make sure that you are sure about what you want to do The last thing they want is to admit somebody into this faculty Only for them to six months into it change their mind and go, you know what I've made the wrong choice I don't want to be here anymore. I I quit or I want to switch majors or I want to And it's not that you can't do those things But if it looks like you're going to do those things, it's a bad look Okay, especially as an international student. They are taking a bit of risk on you, you know So they're for them. There's already an element of risk. You're an international student What if you don't adapt to the culture? What if you're not academically ready? You know, they try to filter those things through tests and other means but You have to understand that from their perspective They are looking for people who know what they want People who are sure of what they want to do So you have to transmit that confidence to them and the way you transmit that confidence Is showing them first of all that you have a good reason to study the thing that you're studying and then also By, you know, showing them that you care about this major enough to take a few minutes out of your day Do some research on the curriculum and and really like You know show them that this is what you want to study That you want to go here and you want to study this and you're confident if you do that I'm sure that they're going to read this and be much more inclined to admit you So with that my people that is all I'm going to be doing for today because I got things to do and people to see All right, it's been a pleasure. I'll see you next week. Don't forget to check out the channel on thursday I got a cool video coming out that took me like a freaking 20 hours of work and I want you to watch it All right, so, uh, please do. Thank you very much for watching. Have a good
