Prime Minister, it's for me a great honor to introduce someone who you all know, they will come around back to Davos and it's actually eight years in a consecutive way and every time you had a new message for us, so we appreciate very much your coming in 2014. Prime Minister, over the past year you have played a particularly critical role in the global governance system as the UK held the presidency of the G8, focusing on the three issues which you presented last year to this audience here, trade, tax and transparency, the three T's. Prime Minister, we are now very eager to hear what you will tell us this year and I just can tell you, we are also here to support you because those three issues I just mentioned can only be resolved in a multi-stakeholder approach integrating business, civil society and as a leadership of the political community. So please welcome Prime Minister David Cameron, very cordially, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Well, ladies and gentlemen, Klaus, thank you very much again for that introduction and for welcoming me back to Davos as you said I think this is my eighth consecutive year so I've been through the seven year itch and I've decided to keep on with this relationship and it is, I find, a very beneficial event because it is an opportunity for political leaders to meet with business, to listen to concerns of business and enterprise and to respond to those concerns. Thank you for what you said about last year's speech. I could today give you an update on trade, tax and transparency. I of course want to take credit for all of the things that have happened over the last year, the Bali World Trade Deal, the launch of the EU-US trade talks, the OECD's excellent work on tax transparency, the revolution we're seeing in terms of beneficial ownership disclosure, these have all been I think very, very good developments for our world and I'm glad that the G8 chaired by Britain has given them a good kickstart. But what I want to talk about today is actually the subject in many ways that I think European leaders come back to at Davos again and again and that is the key challenge of how do European countries make a success of globalization. For years the West has been written off. People say we're facing some sort of inevitable decline. They say we can't make anything anymore and whether it's the shift from manufacturing to services or the transfer from manual jobs to machines, the end point these critics would say is some dystopian vision where the East wins while the West loses, the workers lose while the machines win. And I don't believe it has to be this way. Now of course we shouldn't be starry-eyed about globalization. It presents huge challenges as our economies and our societies try to adapt. But I don't believe we should take this pessimistic view. If we engage in the right way, if we get the fundamentals of our economies right, if we sort out our debts, maximize our competitiveness, build on our strengths, then globalization offers our businesses the chance to win new contracts, to export into markets that were previously closed, and to create jobs fulfilling the demands of consumers thousands of miles away. Indeed, if we make the right decisions we may also see more of what has been a small but discernible trend where some jobs that were once offshoreed are coming back from East to West. And it's this that I want to talk about today. All of this is about the same purpose, securing sustainable, well-paid jobs, giving people pride in using their skills, offering workers a chance to make world-beating products, bringing more of the benefits of globalization back home, and ensuring those benefits are felt by hardworking people in terms of security, stability and peace of mind. Let me start with what we're doing in Britain. We have set out our long-term economic plan to secure our country's economic future. It has five parts. First getting the fundamentals right, cutting our deficits so we deal with our debts, safeguarding our economy for the long term, and keeping mortgage rates low. Second, reducing taxes to help hardworking people become more financially secure. Third, capping welfare and reducing immigration, so our economy delivers for people who work hard and play by the rules. Fourth, delivering the best schools and skills for young people so the next generation can be best placed to win the jobs of the future. And fifth, driving that job creation by backing business and enterprise with better infrastructure and lower jobs taxes. Each part of this plan is already producing results. The deficit that we inherited was the biggest in our post-war history, and already it is down by a third. Our economy is growing. Last this week the IMF upgraded its growth forecast for Britain by more than any other G7 country. And we've seen also the largest quarterly increase in employment since our records began. There are now more than 1.6 million new private sector jobs since early 2010, and around 400,000 more small businesses operating in our country. We've cut taxes for 25 million working people, we've reformed welfare so that it pays to work, and we've created more apprenticeships than at any time in our history. And we've taken unprecedented steps to back enterprise, scrapping 1.2 billion pounds of red tape, including pushing for the removal of the most problematic EU regulations. We're investing billions in our infrastructure, in roads, rail, and what is set to become the best superfast broadband network in Europe. Ernst and Young now say that Britain is the best place in Europe for new entrepreneurs. That has not come about automatically. It is because we have chosen to build our long-term economic plan on Britain's strengths. We've chosen to play to those strengths as an open economy.  We've championed those vital EU trade deals with America, Canada and Asia. We believe these can add millions of jobs to our economies and billions of pounds to the value of our businesses. I'm proud of the fact that it is Indian investment that is helping to drive the massive success story of Jaguar Land Rover. I'm proud of the fact that the Chinese will be investing in our nuclear industry. I'm proud of the fact that in the first half of this year, the UK became the world's largest recipient of inward foreign direct investment. We have made choices. We've made difficult choices. In a time of austerity, we chose to maintain our spending on science and innovation. We chose to cut business taxes. Corporation tax will soon be as low as 20%, the lowest in the G7, and it will be as low as 10% for companies that turn innovation into manufacturing based in the UK. This is the country that is so committed to cutting burdens on business that no government minister, Prime Minister included, can propose a new regulation that affects business without first getting rid of two other regulations. So this is Britain, open, pioneering, creative, innovative, and frankly, ready for your investment. But I believe we have the chance to become something else. In recent years, as I've said, there's been a practice of offshoring where companies move production to low-cost countries. We've all seen it, we all know it's true, and we all know it will continue. But there is now an opportunity for the reverse. There is an opportunity for some of those jobs to come back. A recent survey of small and medium-sized businesses found that more than one in 10 has brought back to Britain some production in the past year. More than double the proportion, sending production in the opposite direction. From food processing to fashion, from cars to computer makers, it's not just one sector where this trend is emerging. It is across all sectors of the economy. The food manufacturer, Simmington's, is moving a factory from China to Leeds. Hornby, the model train manufacturer, is bringing back some of its manufacturing from India to Britain. Raspberry Pi computers have shipped production back into Wales. A company I visited yesterday morning, Ventaxia, has shipped jobs from China to Crawley. Yaiga, the fashion brand, stopped manufacturing in the UK 15 years ago altogether, but it's now bringing back as much as 10% of its output. Take our car industry. Britain now exports more cars than we import. And based on this success, the automotive industry is indicating that it could bring onshore some three billion of supply chain contracts. But we're not just seeing these trends and opportunities in Britain. A survey of major US-based manufacturing companies found that more than a third were planning or actively considering shifting production facilities from China to America. While one recent forecast suggests millions of jobs could be available for reshoring globally. Now, to win these jobs, we need to understand what is driving these changes. Now, of course, part of the story is about rising costs in emerging markets and natural consequence of these economies developing and their people becoming wealthier. Senior pay in China now matches or exceeds pay in America and Europe, while rising oil prices and complex supply chains are increasing transport costs too. But at the same time, there are a number of factors that are pulling companies back home. Some companies are choosing to locate production nearer to the consumer markets in the West. By shortening their supply chains, they can develop new products and react more quickly to changing consumer demand. There's more customization, more personalization. People want better and faster customer service. For example, if you're inspired by some new trend on a London catwalk, you want to make a new product available in days, not weeks, and a shorter supply chain will help. So will the new technologies, like 3D printing, where you can personalize the design and print in hours rather than choose from a more limited range of pre-designed goods and then ship them in weeks. So there's no doubt that when it comes to reshoring in the US, one of the most important factors has been the development of shale gas, which is flooring US energy prices with billions of dollars of energy cost savings predicted over the next decade. Now taken together, I believe these trends have the ability to be a fresh driver of growth in Europe too. I want Britain to seize these opportunities. I believe there is a chance for Britain to become the reshor nation. For years, we've had UKTI out there helping our businesses to export and encouraging inward investment. Now I want to give that same dedicated support to helping businesses to reshor. So we're setting up a one stock shop to help business capitalize on the opportunities that reshoring brings. Much as Britain can be the reshor nation, so Europe should benefit from this too, but only if we act now to make this as attractive as possible. And as much as there is an opportunity, we have to be careful not to misrepresent it. So let me be clear about the three things I'm not saying. First, I am not saying there's some finite number of jobs in the world and that our success is on some sort of tug of war between East and West to win them back at the expense of the East. That completely misunderstands the nature of what is going on and how economies work. Growth and dynamism means that new jobs are continually being created and recreated. So our gain is not their loss, rather their gain can become our gain. Second, I'm not saying that reshoring is going to bring back all the jobs that were offshored in the first place. We have to keep the scale of this development in proportion. So far, most of the firms involved are mainly bringing back production destined for markets in the West. Some companies will continue to offshore more than they bring back, and much of what these firms have moved overseas will remain there, if not in China, then in other low-cost economies like Indonesia or Vietnam. And third, I'm not saying that our economic success depends on winning some sort of race to the bottom, nor should we be engaged in such a race. Getting decent, well-paid jobs at every level is what we should be aiming for. And I believe that's what we can get, and I believe that reshoring can help. When the mobile network company, EE, recently decided to move 300 call centre jobs from the Philippines to Northern Ireland, they didn't do it because the wages were lower, they did it because the productivity was higher. And because the company decided it would be more successful by having a local call centre for its customers. And as they make this move, they aren't just creating jobs for telephone operators, they're creating jobs for managers, for lawyers, for technicians. So what I am saying is this, right now, economies in Europe have a unique opportunity to accelerate this new trend of jobs coming back home, and we should be confident that we can do this. As we do so, we should never forget one of our most important strengths. We should never undersell the core values of liberal democracy to which we hold dear. The rule of law, the freedom of speech, the freedom of the media, property rights, accountable institutions. I often say to investors here in Davos, before you invest in a country, you should ask how many times the government loses in court. Sadly in Britain, it's all too often, but it's a demonstration of the rule of law which is so important for business certainty. These are all foundations for long-term stability and for commercial success. But for reshoring to happen, we need to build on these foundations. And that means settling once and for all two key arguments that risk undermining our competitiveness. First, on the overall business environment, and second, on the need for cheap and predictable sources of energy. And I want to say a word about both of these two before taking your questions. All of us here in Davos know what it is that businesses need if they're to choose to locate in Europe. They want macroeconomic stability.  They want strong financial institutions like that provided by the City of London. They want consistent support for free trade, especially that vital trade deal with the US. And above all, we need an unashamedly pro-business regulatory environment with labour market flexibility, low jobs taxes and a willingness to pave the way for new business and new business models. These are the issues that our business task force highlighted in their recent report, a report seven European leaders from left, right and centre, from north and south, supported late last year in Brussels. We're making progress in the battle for an enterprise of friendly Europe. The Eurozone crisis has focused government on the need for structural reform, the accession to the EU of countries that experience state socialism, the progress of sensible, pro-enterprise governments, all these things have helped. The fight is not yet won. There are still people, though, who think that the key to success is ever greater social protections and more regulations. There are still some in the European Commission who seem to think if they're not producing new regulations, they're somehow not doing their job. And that somehow removing existing regulations is a sort of act of self-harm. There are still some in the European Parliament who attempted to gold plate every piece of legislation. And we should be clear. We don't protect workers by piling on the regulations and directives to such an extent that people become unemployable. We have to maintain the flexibility for companies to grow, to expand, to change. Incredibly complex and overwritten directives that take this flexibility away, that make life difficult for temporary workers or that stop firms moving people between plants, they just mean that companies who might want to reshore will reshore somewhere else. By contrast, where countries are embracing reform, new jobs are flowing. In the UK, BT moved 1,200 jobs back because of flexibility by the unions. Last year, Nissan said it would invest 130 million euros in its Barcelona plant, mainly because Spanish unions agreed to recast working conditions and allow more flexible arrangements. This is the key for our success. Now, the same is true for energy. To relocate in Europe, businesses will be encouraged by cheap and predictable sources of energy. Yes, we need renewables, they are a vital part of our future. That is why Britain has made itself one of the best places for green investment anywhere in the world. We have the world's first dedicated green investment bank, we have the world's largest offshore wind market, and we need nuclear as part of that energy mix too. I'm delighted that in Britain last year, we agreed the first new nuclear build for a generation, 16 billion pounds of investment, 25,000 new jobs, that will ensure safety of energy supplies, but we also need to explore the opportunity represented by shale gas. Now, I understand the concerns that some people have. We need the right regulations, such as ensuring that well casings are set at the right depths, tight seals, and governments need to reassure people that nothing would go ahead if environmental dangers were present. But if this is done properly, shale gas can actually have lower emissions than imported gas. This week's announcements from the European Union represent important progress, but there's still a way to go in really embracing this opportunity. We should be clear that if the European Union or its member states impose burdensome, unjustified, or premature regulatory burdens on shale exploration in Europe, investors will quickly head elsewhere. Oil and gas will still be plentifully produced, but Europe will be dry. We should look at what shale gas has done for America, for American firms, for American jobs. It has reduced industrial gas prices in America to around one-quarter of those in Europe, and it is set to create a million more manufacturing jobs as firms build new factories. Recent studies suggest that US GDP is going to be, on average, close to half a trillion dollars higher every year between 2008 and 2035 because of shale. That is the scale of the opportunity, and that is what European leaders, European countries, must be considering. The confederation of British industry and business Europe are coming together to launch a blueprint for industrial competitiveness. Their message is very clear. Act now to seize the opportunities of reshoring, deal with our debts, roll back the unnecessary regulation, and embrace the opportunities of shale gas. Business is making the case, and frankly, please don't hold back in telling Europe's governments what we need to do. European countries, in my view, face a choice. If we act now, we can ensure our businesses, our peoples, and our societies can benefit from the next phases of globalization. The security, stability, and peace of mind that those we serve yearn for can only be delivered by facing these difficult choices, and we must not fail them. Thank you very much for listening. Thank you for my welcome. But to take some questions, it's a bit dark out there, but if you wave, I'll get your microphone. Lady here in the front. Thank you, Prime Minister. I am a member of the European Parliament for Sweden, and I would like to ask you two things. What you said today is a celebration of freedom of movement. Everything you have achieved is thanks that we can go over borders, and you're celebrating globalization. But recently, you have been calling for restricting freedom of movement in Europe. You have been calling from discriminating from some of European citizens to come to Britain. And here now today, you have been saying that you achieved to reduce migration. It is inconsistent. Do you have anything to say about that? A second, sorry. I'm sorry, yes, please. No, because you also talked about the European Parliament gold plating. And as a member of the European Parliament, I was happy that at least some Prime Minister talks about the European Parliament. Since we share co-decision and we have co-legislators, and everything that has happened in Europe has happened also with Britain, what you don't like and what you criticize as Britain as a key player, and as members of the European Parliament from your party in Britain, I would ask you to ask your colleagues in the European Parliament to be more constructive because you achieve better regulation, smarter regulation, deregulation by working in the European Parliament, and not just by undermining what everybody else is doing. Please do so. Thank you. Thank you, well, I believe that one of Britain's roles in Europe is to speak very frankly and to speak very clearly. Speak very clearly about those things we welcome that are working well for Europe and to speak frankly when things aren't working. I think that's part of Britain's role and a role I'm proud to play. And let me answer your questions very directly. First of all, on the European Parliament, your second question, Britain does play a very constructive role in that Parliament. We've been making arguments about the dangers of over-regulation, over-regulation, for instance, on shale gas, which Europe has correctly avoided, the dangers of over-regulation in the single market, which is a permanent battle. But I'm actually confident, and you can hear in that speech, that we're making some progress. The European Commission, for the first time, is not just looking at regulations it might bring in, is now looking at regulations it might scrap. It's going to have a scorecard for how it's getting on with scrapping regulation. That is a British initiative being run through the European Parliament and being run through the Council of Ministers. Now let me address the issue about migration, because I think it's important. The right to move in Europe and apply for jobs in other European countries and take those jobs is an important freedom in the European Union, which I subscribe to. But let me make two important points. The first is, it is a right to move to go and work. It should not be a right to move to go and claim benefits. And that is why I make absolutely no apology for tightening the British benefits system so that it can't be abused. And I think that is absolutely the right thing to do. Second, on the freedom of movement more generally. I think we have to learn the lessons of recent history. When the last government in Britain in 2004 decided to allow immediate access to the British labor market, to the eight European countries that joined the European Union in 2004, without any transitional changes, 1.5 million people moved from those countries to Britain. That was probably the largest migratory movement that has happened in recent British history. And I think if you ask the founders of the European Union, was it your intention that there would be movements like that, 1.5 million people? I think they would have said that was not the intention at all. So what I am saying is when it comes to future accessions, when new countries join the European Union, we should look at transitional controls that we have. We should look at longer transitional periods. And frankly, we should look at those transitional periods thinking about their purpose. And the truth is this, if you have countries of relatively similar GDP, you tend to get migratory movements of a relative balance, a number of people going to work from Britain in France or France to Britain. When you have vast disparities of GDP, you can get vast movements. And I think in looking at these future transitional controls, we should be asking the question, not only do they need to be longer, but do we need to look at issues like making sure GDP per capita becomes more equal before those controls are taken away? Now, I would argue that it's practical, good, conservative, common sense, and frankly, that's something the European Union needs a lot of. Next question. Comment of Bulgarian Cardiac Institute. I'm not going to ask a question about community migration, even though I'm tempted to. What Britain was going to do about periphery of Europe? Exactly your last sentence concerning the overcoming this, for us disparities, what we are seeing over the last 10, 12 years, even growing, and youth unemployment in the periphery of Europe. I'm sure of your background to understand very well that this is the key of having united Europe. Yeah. Well, I think one of the great, as I said, I speak frankly about Europe, I speak about the good things, I speak about the things that need to change. Let's be frank, one of the greatest successes for the European Union has been the accession process. If you look at countries that have been queuing up to join the European Union, the process of application has been an incredibly powerful engine for development. Countries have had to put in place better judicial systems, better rules on property rights, opening up markets, making sure their economies are competitive and properly functioning. We've seen great progress in terms of growth in those countries before they've joined. And I remain a strong supporter of widening the membership of the European Union, which has been a longstanding British aim. I think it's been a very successful policy. But we don't help the accession of those countries if we don't speak frankly about the problems of the migratory flows to which I just referred. I think it's completely consistent to be in favor of widening membership, to be in favor of the process of membership driving development, but at the same time, understanding the very real concerns people have about migration, which we need to address. Let me make one last point on migration because I think it is important. To me, an immigration policy on its own is not effective. Immigration needs to combine with welfare and education because the truth for advanced European countries like Britain, if we educate our young people to the right level and if we have a welfare system where it always pays to work rather than to remain idle, then if you combine that with an immigration, proper immigration system, then you have the best chance of actually making the most of your own resources rather than simply encouraging migration. So those three things need to go together. Let's take the lady in red microphone coming towards you. Thank you, Prime Minister. France is so great, the general secretary of the TUC. I very much welcome your commitment to the need to create decent well-paid jobs. And clearly we share that, and I will take that as support for the TUC's campaign. Britain needs a pay rise. But four out of five of the new jobs created since 2010 have been in low-paid industries. Can you show a lead in that commitment to decent well-paid jobs by signing the government up to the campaign for a living wage and ensuring that all government employees have that right? Well, first of all, good to have this discussion. And I hope that the TUC will warmly welcome what I'm saying about the opportunities to reshore jobs. I think if we get our economic policies right, if we get our labor flexibility right, if trade unions show the flexibility that they have in the examples that I gave, I think there's real opportunities. As I say, not simply for returning jobs that were considered low-paid, but actually returning jobs at all levels of pay. That is what we want to see. If you look at the job creation record we've had over the last three and a half years, I think it has been fairly remarkable that even though growth was sluggish to take off at first, we've actually got 1.6 million more private sector jobs and we have 1.3 million more people in employment overall. I remember coming to conferences like this and people saying, look, the decline in public sector jobs that you're going to see because of the necessary cuts you have to make, you'll never make that up with the creation of private sector jobs. But actually for every job lost in the public sector, we've seen four created in the private sector. So I think that is hugely positive. Now, the living wage, I support the living wage. I think the living wage is a great idea. I think that employers who can afford to pay the living wage should do so. The mayor of London is here in Davos today. I'm very proud of the fact that a conservative mayor of London has introduced the living wage for staff that work under him. So where companies, where organizations can pay the living wage, I think they should. But I think we have to recognize a fundamental truth. You say support pay rises. I want to see people paid more, but the truth is we have to make sure we're succeeding in terms of productivity, in terms of our output, in order that that pay can be earned. And it's the same with the living wage. I think if you decree it across the country without considering whether it can be afforded, you could lose jobs rather than gain jobs. So I support it, but the right way to do it is people should pay it when they can afford to. And increasingly, you're seeing a number of councils and other organizations able to do it, and I welcome that when it happens. Next question. Let's have a gentleman down the front. Hello, Siddiq Ghilani, Chief Strategy Officer of Lufthansa Group. Mr. Prime Minister, we have a scenario where Scotland can leave the UK and the British people can vote to leave the European Union. How do you adjust your grand vision for the UK if those two things were to happen? Well, let me be clear about my goal. My goal is that Scotland should choose to remain part of a successful United Kingdom, and the United Kingdom should choose to remain part of a reformed Europe. But as I say, I think in politics, you have to deal very frankly and very candidly with the situation that you face. And the fact is Scotland voted for a Scottish National Party government. And I thought the right thing to do as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom was not to try and deny people in Scotland a legitimate vote, but to give them that legitimate vote, to make sure it was fairly done, make sure it was legal, and to make sure it was decisive. Now, there's a big debate taking place in my country and taking place in Scotland about the future of the United Kingdom. I'm confident the debate is going in the direction of the United Kingdom because I think all the arguments stack up for this very successful family to stay together. I think we'll be safer together. We'll be more prosperous together. We'll be more secure together. We'll count for more on the world stage together. And I think those arguments are resonating. And I think it's very important in these situations for the rest of the United Kingdom not to stay silent but to stay very clearly to Scotland and to Scottish people. We want you to stay. This is your choice. This is your decision. But we want you to stay in this family and I'm confident that's what will happen. Likewise, with the European Union situation, I could have said, well, I know there's an enormous unhappiness in Britain about the current state of the European Union. I know there's a lot of public disquiet, a lot of which I share about the way the European Union works, but I'm just going to ignore those voices. I think that would be the wrong approach. The right approach in politics when you have a problem is actually to have a strategy for addressing and dealing with that problem. So I think better than casting this under the carpet and hoping the problem will go away is to say, right, let's try and reform the European Union. Let's reform Britain's relationship with the European Union and then let's put that to an in and out referendum of the British public before the end of 2017. And again, I'm confident that we'll have a successful renegotiation and a successful referendum. Why am I confident of that? Well, because I sit around the table with my 27 European Union colleagues and you can see that change needs to come. Change needs to come because the Eurozone needs change. There isn't a single currency in the world that could succeed without elements of a banking union, without elements of greater fiscal union, without elements of more common policies and common support. The current treaties don't provide for that. And so there needs to be change. And when that change happens, there's an opportunity for those of us outside the single currency to say we need change too. So I'm confident this is doable, deliverable, and as I say, also winnable for Britain to stay in a reformed European Union. Much better to have a strategy to actually secure these problems and deal with these problems than rather to wish they weren't there. Last question, let's have a gentleman here saying I'll take it. There we are, that's sort of, that's the Davos spirit. Prime Minister, this is Hinduja group of companies. I would like to thank you very much for the comments what you have given. I've been here coming for World Economic Forum for the last 25 years and more than that. I've seen most of the prime ministers from the Britain who have been here from the day the Edward Heats until goes on. The you, you're the last one which I've met now. I would say that World Economic Forum discuss the issues of the world. You as a prime minister, the British I know are the best brains in the world. This is my experience. I don't know what the world says about it. But as you know, we are going through a different problems of the poverty of the world. You G5 countries, G7 countries, G20 countries, they all talk about the poverty of the world. But as the British brains are considered to be the best one, why don't you focus on the programs on the Africa where the British has a great influence on the African world? If you could put light on it, we would appreciate very much. I have a thought on it that British, India and Africa. Right, thank you. Three can play a very important role, thank you. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you for your question and thank you for complimenting my fellow countrymen. I won't take the compliment. I work with a lot of people who are a lot brighter than I am and I see that every day. The point you make about aid and Britain playing a leading role in tackling poverty, I completely agree with. I'm very proud of the fact. I talked about the choices that we've made. I'm proud of the fact that Britain under my government made a choice, which is that we had made a promise to the poorest people in the world that we'd spend 0.7% of our GDP on overseas aid. We made a promise, we'd do that in 2013 and in 2013 we did that. And I'm very proud of that and I think it gives us the ability to say to other countries you should keep your promises to the poorest countries in the world and the poorest people in the world as well. One of the reasons I think it's important is I think that aid can do an enormous amount in terms of vaccinating children against diseases, in terms of providing food for the hungry, in terms of tackling some of the most deepest problems of entrenched poverty. But there's also another reason which is I think it gives Britain now, and I'm gonna talk about this, I hope on the panel we do this afternoon, an opportunity to make some fresh arguments as well, which should be arguments about the other things that are holding people and countries back from being prosperous. And the truth is if we look around the world, those countries that have made the leaps from poverty to success tend to have institutions that actually include people in development. And so we need to be franker and tougher about our work in tackling corruption, in supporting good governance, in supporting the rule of law, in backing democratic institutions and in saying these things matter. They are what I call the golden thread of helping countries move from poverty to wealth. And as Britain is keeping our promises on aid, and aid is important in helping countries develop, we should have some very frank and very clear conversations about these other things too. But I don't wanna entrench on the work that this panel is gonna be doing this afternoon. Can I thank you again for a very warm welcome and I thank Klaus again for welcoming me to Davos for my eighth visit, and I wish you a very successful and happy conference. Thank you very much indeed.


We often encounter a variety of techniques used by individuals and academic bodies who are attempting to stem the flow of true historical knowledge. Indeed, many of the most controversial and compelling artifacts are often stolen, conveniently lost, or simply sold on by their original discoverer, never to be seen again. However, sometimes these artifacts successfully make it into the public domain, photographed and studied by reliable figures before these vanishing acts can occur. And our next artifact is no exception. Predictably, the tactic that is seemingly chosen for these particular smoking guns is for the academic and scientific worlds to simply ignore such objects as if they do not exist. Or as with this particular upart, to dismiss it, to look away and claim it is simply impossible. Known as the Nampa doll, it is a small figurine confirmed beyond doubt as having once been crafted by the hands of man. It was discovered in 1889 by a group of workers who were searching for water near the town of Nampa in southwestern Idaho. They were attempting to create a well, drilling a borehole down to a depth of 295 feet, at which point they began to bring up strange cuts of clay. Amongst them was a unique projectile, a tiny clay figure in the shape of a woman. Professor Albert A. Wright of Oberlin College officiated the figure's authenticity in 1979, making academia's attempts to vanish the out-of-place figure near impossible. Quote, It was not the product of a small child or amateur, but was made by a true artist. Though badly battered by time, the doll's appearance is still distinct.  There are also faint geometric markings on the figure, which represent either clothing patterns or jewelry. They are found mostly on the chest or around the neck, arms and wrists. The doll is the image of a person of a high civilization, artistically attired. We find his conclusion of it being of a person of high civilization as the most compelling, further supporting our belief that the doll is a leftover remnant of a now lost civilization. And due to academia's dismissive attitude towards the stonework, it is lost as a result of their conspiratorial ignorance. Furthermore, and an additionally intriguing reality, is the dating of the artifact. The geological strata it was discovered amongst is known as the Glens Ferry Formation, according to the same entities that deny the artifact's existence, was created approximately two million years ago during the Pliocene-Plystocene transition. Additionally, before the mass cover-up of artifacts, research, and indeed evidence from the public domain, George Frederick Wright, a geologist from the Boston Society of Natural History, also confirmed this astonishing object's authenticity. Quote, There is no ground to question the fact that this image came up in the sand pump from the depth reported. In visiting the locality in 1890, I took special pains while on the ground to compare the discoloration of the oxide upon the image, with that upon the clay balls still found among the debris, and ascertained it to be as nearly identical as it is possible to be. These confirmation evidences in connection with the very satisfactory character of the evidence, furnished by the parties who made the discovery, confirmed by Mr. G. M. Gummeng of Boston, who is the superintendent of that division, and who knew all the parties, placed the genuineness of the discovery, in my mind, beyond reasonable doubt. End quote. How could a figurine, dated at two million years old, identified as having come from a technologically advanced civilization exist, authenticated by a number of official and highly trained individuals, if indeed there has never been another technologically advanced civilization to have flourished here upon our planet? We find the fact that academia is simply attempting to dismiss its existence, proof of their concealment of this truth, making the Nampa figurine, undoubtedly, highly compelling. Hey guys, so in 1999, engineer and all around good guy, John J. Williams, found something that has become a very important find, known as the Enigmalif. He was hiking in North America when he noticed something odd about a boulder lying on the ground. Upon closer inspection, John discovered that the rock appeared to have three metal prongs protruding from its center. Finding this rather odd like anyone would, John collected the rock up and took it home. Now, it must be said, John J. Williams is one of those endearing characters that is not easily fooled. Knowing, as the perceptive person that he is, that an authentic, out-of-place artifact that according to modern understanding shouldn't exist, are the types of relics that regularly go missing, with many people attempting to get their hands on it. John has guarded this artifact so well in fact, he even refuses to give away the location in which he found it. Based to John's protective nature, the Enigmalif, also known as the Petrodox, is still in the public arena. A device that has the undeniable aspect of an electrical component, which ended up embedded into solid granite, stone composed of quartz and feldspar, with small traces of mica. Williams has received offers up to half a million dollars for the device, but he refuses to sell it. Williams stated that the artifact, however, is available to any researchers for analysis. So far, only a few individuals have taken the time, or the risk to their funding, to study the mysterious object. According to these studies, the Petrodox is not an accretion, concretion, pumice, or a fossil. It does not contain any known resins, cement, glues, adhesives, limestone, mortar, or other binding agents. In other words, this baby is an authentic, bona fide rock, which a long time ago formed around the electrical component. According to geological analysis, researchers believe that the rock is at least 100,000 years old, which should be impossible when the object embedded in it is of artificial origin. The device has been compared by some researchers to an electronic XLR connector, or similar component. The artifact has a very weak magnetic attraction. Readings indicate either an open circuit or very high impedance between the pins. Williams has not allowed the object to be broken in half for analysis, but X-ray tests have shown that the artifact has a mysterious quote, opaque internal structure in the center of the stone. Skeptics firmly state, but at a distance, that this 100,000 year old electrical component is a manufactured hoax, but Williams does not agree and welcomes studies of it. Williams is convinced that he has found a genuine artifact that belonged to an advanced ancient civilization or an extraterrestrial race. He is willing to let researchers authenticate the artifact under certain conditions, that he is present during the analysis, and that the rock remains unharmed. Thanks to his diligence, this is a rare out of place artifact, which is still in the realm of public scrutiny. As always, thanks for watching guys and until next time, take care. Throughout the ages, countless reports of unexplained and baffling discoveries have been reportedly made deep within the minds of Earth. Regardless of the type of mind or indeed its depth, it seems that these peculiar stories continue to surface, and usually only by word of mouth. Often attached to these fascinating tales, you will find stories of these artifacts being seized, destroyed, or simply reburied. We are often confronted with an apparent cover-up, vast resources and manpower being harnessed to hide these facts from the world. The motives for choosing to conceal such artifacts from the world could indeed be endless, though regardless of motive, we feel it is imperative that we continue to expose these stories to the Earth. If we have compelling witnesses and unmistakable evidence of a cover-up. Deep beneath the city of Donetsk, within the Rostov region of Russia, a large foundation of sandstone can be found, something known as Rock Shield of Carboniferous Age. It is about 300 to 360 million years old and is lined with distributions of coking coals that are also of around the same age. Astonishingly, Mr. Kasatskin has discovered, upon the roof of this shaft of coal, an imprint of a chariot wheel, an imprint undoubtedly made before the rock had formed around it. He also discovered another imprint, a small distance further along the shaft. It must be noted that these imprints have remained buried deep within these seams of rock for many millions of years. If a scientific analysis could have been undertaken upon this artifact, it could have shaken our understandings of world history, just like so many other artifacts we have been made aware of, all but a few now stolen from the public domain. Upon realizing the implications of his discovery, Mr. Kasatskin, an extremely experienced foreman in ventilation and safety engineering, specializing in seismic prognosis, thankfully took several photographs of his miraculous and now concealed discovery, before officially reporting it and requesting a scientific evaluation. When his boss notified the owners of the mine in the hopes of getting an analysis of the artifact with an attempt to preserve it, to his boss's surprise, they demanded he continued the work through the shaft, so that it could be subsequently flooded, which is unfortunately what has occurred, making further exploration of the sites impossible. He stated that he's investigated further regarding the western mine's history with the fellow miners there, and was able to confirm the existence of the other print within that mine. It had been damaged by blast hole driving and was little mentioned, though it was indeed there. He was sometimes in this cut, he said, and got to take a good look at it. He says that he was surprised, but also somewhat afraid to admit that these objects are of artificial origin. We on the other hand are excited by such a premise, and will keep you posted on any further developments regarding the mine. Recently we covered the incredible reports made by a Russian known as Mr. Kasatskin, deep within a coal mine in Rostov. Dated at over 300 million years old, it is these types of finds which are often suppressed from the public. It's seen by some as an imperative task to conceal such information, and this next object is no less fascinating or controversial. Dated as being a mere 50 million years younger than our prints deep within the mine, another artefact, thankfully exposed to the world. The stone, with a mysterious apparent chip embedded within its form, was discovered accidentally by local fisherman Viktor Morozov in Lubinsk, a town in Krasnodar, Kri. Understandably perplexed by this marvellous find, he quietly notified local university professors regarding his intriguing discovery. After donating the stone to these said professionals, it was discovered that the strange alien object embedded within this pebble is indeed a processing microchip of a clearly unknown origin. Amazingly it has also been found to still contain processing data which has not yet been deciphered, which when captured and translated, could quite possibly shed light on a once existing advanced civilization here on Earth. Or more, it could also in all possibility give us a tiny glimpse at an ancient alien civilization who are at this time possible candidates as the creators of this advanced and very ancient chip. The team began to discuss the confusing artefact with other professionals within similar fields of study and predictably it was not long until debunking efforts engulfed the investigations. A number of prominent figures coming forth to passionately denounce such research being made public or indeed being undertaken, with explanations of it somehow only being a mere fossil subsequently being publicly launched, the stone cataloged as such by the majority of the trusting public. This clearly in staunch rejection of reality. The fragment of a once larger microchip contains information we are yet to extract and decipher, information of clearly ancient and possibly alien origin. We just hope the specialists bestowed with the task of this important research now convinced they have discovered that which will eventually rewrite the history books. Do not discover that the object has disappeared without trace. A fate suffered by many other artefacts stumbled upon within our modern age, artefacts of an unexplained or otherworldly nature. Just who or what could have created this chip? What was its purpose? We will endeavor to keep an eye on this research. We recently came across a most curious artefact, one which has been claimed as having once been found just like a handful of other exquisite objects we have previously shared, within a lump of ancient coal. It is a once smelted solid iron recreation of a face, whose owner could have lived an unimaginably long time ago. With the claim written by John D. Morris, PhD, quote, I was recently contacted by an older lady who grew up in the coal mining area of Appalachia. Her ancestors, having lived in the area for generations, her now deceased father was a miner who had once made a remarkable discovery embedded within a coal seam, a human face made from cast iron. Like most people, they had been taught that coal is far too old to contain any human artefacts. The miner was so proud and perplexed by his find, it eventually became a family heirloom and was simply named man. As a large, heavy object, it was eventually used as an ornament, decades later becoming stored among his belongings. She distinctly remembers her father's story of its discovery and the care he had taken with this prized object, having recently rediscovered it among her father's possessions, end quote. The owner of this artefact has requested to remain anonymous and to withhold her identity. This makes the story even more appealing to us, as throughout our time researching these types of claims and indeed artefact, we find that those who are pushing a supposed discovery, publicizing themselves while touring an object, are often in a search for a profit and recognition. Thus, as she is seemingly fearful of the artefact's disappearance, it would seem her story would align more with someone who possesses an item, not only of an extraordinary, incredibly controversial age, but also has a sentimental value, one which outweighs any idea of selling the item or even risking losing it from exposing its location. How old is the so-called man, who could have made it, pouring cast iron into a mole resulting in an exact duplicate of the man's face in the form of a three-dimensional mask? Could we be peering at the face of an ancestor, once of incredible importance, one from a lost civilization, a lost time within our planet's history? We find such possibilities incredibly intriguing.


A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty high old silver, the lone ranger. With his great horse, Silver, and his faithful Indian companion, Tonto, the masked rider of the planes fought crime and criminals throughout the western United States. No man did more to bring law and order to the frontier, and high old Silver came to be the battle cry of justice. Now return with us to those thrilling days when the West was young and adventurely at the end of every trail. The lone ranger rides again! Buffalo Point, the county seat of Buffalo County, was the center of a stirring election campaign. Pete Sampson, ex rancher, was determined to win the office of sheriff from its present occupant, Charlie Wilson. As our first act opens, we see Pete in the cafe with a small group of his backers. Among them is the elderly and Frank-spoken Gideon Wells, the local doctor. We hear him say... Pete, if you don't beat out Charlie Wilson and show his boss, hey, Dylan, that we ain't letting him run this town anymore, things are going to be even worse than they were before. Well, I'm trying my best, Gideon. You ought to, because they used to took your spread away from me. But I don't know if you're staying much chance, Pete, here. I tell you, Pete is like this. Me and Gideon here and the rest of us are all for you. But Ace has got a whole bunkhouse full of gunmen. He's got folks in his county, so blame's scared they'll vote just about the way he tells them to. That's why I'm fighting them. If you was only sheriff... That's just it. If Pete was sheriff, there's enough on Ace and Charlie both to send him to jail for a long time. But as long as Charlie's the law in Buffalo County and takes his orders from Ace, there ain't nothing can be done. Ace just took over Willie Goodman's spread, too.  First he runs off most of the cattle, then he shows up in his hired gun hands and offers to buy for almost nothing. And when he tells Charlie there are causes to be installed, he gets together a posse, rides around a little, then comes back and says the criticism's took across the border, and there ain't nothing he can do about it. No one all the time that is Ace is doing the wrestling. That's got to be changed, Gideon.  But by the eternalists enough to make me start packing a shoot-n-iron for a little target practice on them scunks. It ain't to be put up with. Maybe this time folks will have the nerve to vote the way they want to. They're like Ace tells them to. We're with you anyway, ain't we, fellas? Then let's have a drink on it. Hey, barkeep, I'm setting up the drinks for the house. And we're all gonna drink to Pete here for our next sheriff. We're drinking to Pete, are we? It's Ace. Charlie's with him. And so's half his rotten gun. I'm suggesting a different toast. I'm asking you to drink to Charlie here. The best sheriff this county ever had. He ain't drinking to no crook, Ace. Even if he does wear a badge. You called me a crook? I said it plain, didn't I? Oh, why? Yeah, but Charlie, your badge don't give you no right to put your gun on a fella that don't carry arms.  Go ahead and shoot, Sheriff. That'll be about your style. Hey, Charlie. Now look here, Ace. Maybe these fellas will drink to you like I asked them to. In that case, there wouldn't be no harm done. No. Oh, what do you say, fellas?  I ain't bluffing nobody, Pete. I'm just asking them real polite. Sure. Figuring they'd be scared to go again, you. Drink up, boys. For Charlie Wilson. Well, I don't know. I'd rather not. Maybe you need a little convincing, huh? Give them a campaign argument, fellas. Yeah. Now listen, don't screw up my place. Maybe this'll earn you some manners. The next time I ball, I'll tell you to do something. Oh, you broke my period. Here's another. Oh, you just missed my boot.  Well, I ain't no way to talk it all, Pete. I need my fault if you can't put up as good a campaign talk. You've been running this county with guns ever since you come here, Ace. Sure. Well, I've done right well. All right, fellas. You change your minds any about drinking to Charlie? Sure, I'll drink to him. I'd be right back. Come to your gun, Pete, and I'll jail you for going again along. Come on, Pete. The rain no use trying to stand up to a crooked sheriff that takes his orders from a still-bigger crook. We'll get our horses and ride out to your place. Might as well, I reckon, Doc. Maybe it'll be a savvy what's good for you. Keep riding and riding and never come back. You ain't running me out of town, Ace. Well, stick around then, if you ever mind, eh? But when election day comes next week, the only vote you'll be getting will be your own. Step up the bar, fellas. Another drink to Charlie here. And don't forget, them the names to stay healthy at better vote right. When Pete Sampson and the old doctor left the cafe, they mounted and rode toward Pete's small place just outside town. We hear them as they discuss the situation on the way. Doc, sometimes I figure I'm just a darn fool for trying to go again, Ace. Maybe are, Pete. Sometimes a fella's got to do what he knows to be right, even if he ain't going to profit by it. What happened just now has happened a dozen times before. The honest folks are for me. But when Ace and his gunslingers come around, they backwater. It's hard to blame them. Of course it is. They know their sheriff ain't going to do nothing for them. Well, if you don't win out, Pete, I'm packing up and leaving town. Here? I don't want her, but I won't have much choice. Where you been thinking of going? Over to Harmony, most likely. Harmony? Well, there's plenty of business for saw bones over there. They got a sanitarium and all. Folks coming quite a distance to be doctored there. I sure hate to see you go. And if you do lose out, Pete, you'd better hightail it out of here, too. No telling what Ace will do to you for running against Charlie. He do plenty right now for one for the way to look just before election. But maybe... Hey, look at the paint horse over there. Leaping lizards. Ain't he traveling though? Ain't that fellow waving at us? By God, I seem like he is. We'll rain up and see what he wants. Oh, there. Oh, boy. Well, I'll be... Looks like an engine. No way! What you want, Redskin? He's riding like he's got something on his mind, all right. Oh, oh, paint horse. You... You color name Pete? I'm Pete Samson, if that's who you mean. Matt, right. What you want with Pete Redskin? You him friend. Friend? I ain't got no better. The darker me, then friends for quite a spell. Then me talk. Yeah? You want Pete Sheriff? You mean in the election, Redskin? Matt, right. That's what I aim to do, but right now things don't look so good. You know Ace Fuller got brother? Sure, Ace has got a brother. He ain't around these parts. I never heard Ace had any kin. Well, it ain't generally known. He don't use the name of Dolan, and he's got quite a reputation for being an outlaw. I've heard Ace thinks he's a heap of the kid.  Well, if Ace has got a brother, don't surprise me none to hear he's a crook, too. But what's that got to do with us, engine? White friend. Got plan. Huh? You come with Tonto, me show you white friend. You want us to go with you and meet this friend of yours? Uh, Matt, right. But what's the ID? Him tell you how you beat Sheriff. Well, if this friend of yours savies how I can win the election, it's more than I can do. Just watch your game. Uh, it's not game. Tonto not trick you. What do you think, Doc? It's up to you, Pete. But I'd say we couldn't be no worse off doing what the Red Skin asks. That's my notion. You come? Lead the way, Red Skin. If your pod's got a scheme to beat them croaks, I aim to hear it. Mm, that good. And if this is just some slick scheme that Ace has put you up to, why, then, we'll show him that we ain't to be scared. You follow Tonto.      Tonto, the faithful Indian companion of the Lone Ranger, led Pete and Gideon Wells to the hidden camp he shared with the mask man. There, with growing enthusiasm, they listened to the Lone Ranger's plan. Our next scene opens two days later in the cafe. Ace Dolan, Sheriff Charlie Wilson, and several of their friends are seated at a large table. Ace is speaking. Boys, Charlie Hughes, got the election just about as good as won. We got the folks in this county so blame Buffalo'd. They ain't even breathing less than we tell them they can. There's just one thing, Ace. Yeah? We're all right as long as nothing happens to you.   What do you think is going to happen to me? I ain't sayin' anything will. But if it did... Charlie's right, Ace.  But if somebody should plug you, they'd hang us so fast we wouldn't know what happened to us. Hey, what's going into you fellas? Nothing, boss.  What do you figure I'm high on so many guns for? Well, I... It's to make sure nothing like you say happens. And if you're on your toes, it won't. We'll watch out for you, Ace. And forget this kind of talk. What we want to think about is how... there's the sawbooms comin' this way. What's that old fool lookin' for? More trouble? Not if he savies what's good for him. Ace, I'd like to have a word with you. Yeah? Well, speak up. Well, you better step over in the corner with me, Ace. I don't figure you'd want these fellas to hear. And why shouldn't we hear it? Why, that's up to Ace. But I reckon he'd just as soon as you didn't. It'll only take a second. Well, make it fast. But look here, Ace. Come on, Doc. You fellas stay here. All right, Ace. If it's something I think you ought to know, I'll tell you myself. How do you say? But we'll keep an eye on the sawbooms. Well, Doc, what in blazes is it? Just a mic more this way, Ace. You can still hear us. Go ahead.  They can't drill you if you try any tricks. This'll do. Well? It's, uh, it's about your brother. What's that? I didn't mean to go again you the other days. I reckon I sort of spoke out of turn. So now I'd like to be the first one to warn you. To warn me? Your brother's over to Harmony. Ain't they at the town where the sanitary him is? That's the one. Well, what if he is? He got shot up bad, so he went there to be doctored. And he don't know there's a U.S. Marshal on his way there to jail him. He's that straight? I wouldn't have no reason to send you there for nothing, would I? I'll soon lay arrest, the kid. If you hurry, you can beat the Marshal. He just set out from Abilene. Don't you hear, my brother? I figured maybe you wouldn't want the others to know about this. You see, if the Marshal should get there before you, the kid might talk enough to send the Marshal over this way. And you wouldn't want your bunch to think there might be trouble. I don't have to tell them nothing. You're going? Right now. I'll take a couple of the boys with me in case you're up to some stunt. I ain't, Ace. I reckon you'd have better sense than that. But you'd sure pay for it when I get back. I know. Steve! Two guns. Come along with me. Where are you taking them, Ace? I've got a little trip to make. Charlie, you and Rick run things until I get back here. What's it all about? I'll tell you later.  You won't believe right this, Ace. You'll do like I tell you. You'll have to ride like I'll get out, Ace. That's what I aim to do. And you won't forget it was me that warned you, will you? I don't forget my friends anymore and I forget my enemies.  I am wishing you all the luck you've got coming, Ace. Get up there! The curtain falls on the first act of our throwing-loan-ranger drama. Before the next exciting scenes, please permit us to pause for just a few moments. Now to continue our story. After Gideon Wells had told Ace Dolan that his younger brother was in danger of being arrested and the crooked rancher had left town with two members of his gang, the elderly doctor re-entered the cafe. Hey, Doc, what did Ace rush out of here in such a hurry for? I don't recognize better say. He most likely wouldn't want me to... Doc! You calling me? Come over here! All right, Sheriff. Take a chair, Doc. Uh-huh. We need to ask you some questions. Yeah? What did you say to Ace just now? I... I'm right sorry, but a doctor ain't supposed to tell his patient's secrets. What's that you say? Patient. Reginald will be running along to my office. I got some work to do with that. You said right where you are. But I... You're going to explain that remark. But if Ace was to find out you knew he ain't likely to live... Jumping Geosivette. I said too much already. You ain't said half enough. But really, I... You're planning to live long. Yeah, but what do you... Give your talk. If he ain't, just go on dodging the questions. We're asking you be suffering from lead poison at Prado. And we ain't bluffing, Doc. But... But if Ace should live to come back from the sanitary and move to Harmony, he'd kill me for talking. The sanitarium? He went to Harmony? It was just because I told him what the doctors over there wrote me. What are they right? I... I can't tell you. Take a look at that gun and make up your mind to spill it. I... I'll talk. That's better. You see, Ace has been worried about some spells he's been having. Get on with it. He's come to me secret-like because he didn't want you fellas to savay there might be something wrong with him. Yeah? I... I looked him over. But I didn't want to say for sure what the matter was till I wrote to the doctors at the sanitarium, asking about them. And what did they say? They said it was even worse than I figured it was. He might drop over dead almost any time. No. I wouldn't have no reason to lie to you, would I? Well, what's Alyn Ace? It's... it's his heart. Yeah? He's got, uh... Thermal Topolus of the, uh, Lattercardiac offering. Thermal... too? He's got all that? Well, he's got that for sure. But there's a couple other things that might be wrong with him, too. Sure. If that dark ain't lying, you're savvy what that means. You're blamed right, I do. Now, don't forget. I didn't want to tell you about this. If Ace is really going to harmony... If he has, somebody will be riding in that passed him on the way. It's a two-day ride over there. We'll... we'll wait to find out. And if it's so, we'd better start figuring what to do. And I'm telling you, we'd better figure fast. Gideon Well's story was told and retold until it reached the ears of every voter in the county. Each time it was repeated, Ace Dolan's condition grew worse. Hey, Bart! What's the excitement? You heard about Ace Dolan? Huh? Some pellets seen him riding over to the sanitary in harmony. What for? There's something mighty wrong with him. They tell he ain't likely to live. You don't say so. And if he don't, he won't be able to do nothing to us if we vote for P for Cher. Well, I'll be don't gone. I gotta tell the folks at home about it. Get up there. Barkey! I just learned the fact that Ace is dying. I am. The doctors over at harmony don't give them a chance. You're sure of that? I ain't no doubt at all. I'm voting Charlie Wilson out of office at Pete's, Samson Hill. It's my colleague, Charmai! We'd like to tell a sheriff about that. That means his punch will be busted up. And the election is just tomorrow. We can vote them cooks out. And we'll vote him out for good. Ace Dolan's men became panic-stricken as the rumor of his death reached Buffalo Point. In his office, Sheriff Charlie Wilson, openly worried, tried to reason out the course he should follow. I don't know what's gonna happen with Ace gone. Blast it! What if I have to tie myself up with him first? I wish I'd never... Charlie! Now what do you want? Just came from the cafe. They got word Ace is dead. Everybody's talking about it. Don't you figure I got here? You heard the same? I most likely heard it before you did. What are you gonna do? I don't know. You gotta do something, you... Ace is dead.  But I'm telling you... But nothing! Of course he's dead. But what we gotta think about is the election. We can't want it now. There ain't a chance. But if you fellas stick with me... Then why should we? It was Ace paid us our salaries. With him gone, we're drifting, and we're drifting right smart. You can't do this to me. You might win out again, Charlie. But it ain't worth buttin' our necks on us. You yellow coyotes! We're just usin' our heads. Instead of losin' them. But we... We ain't waitin'. The election's come on. That just gives us a 24-hour slot. And 24 hours ain't done too early. Blast them! Blast them all! The dirty skunks! They're all rightin' out and leavin' me to face the music! Leaving the sheriff to worry over his own affairs, Ace Dolan's henchmen hurried to the ranch house, packed their few belongings, mounted their horses, and started for the open country. They rode all through the night, and stopped in the morning only long enough to face their tired horses. Then they started out again. They had ridden only a short way when... Hey, look up ahead. Huh? Ain't that Ace? It looks like him, sure enough. Well, I'll be... Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. If that ain't Ace, it's his ghost. Gosh, don't say that. Hi, look, boss. We heard you was dead. What's that? Sure we did. It's all over town. Huh? Well, that's where they got me out of town. It was just to pull some trick like this. I went to Harmony to help my brother. He wasn't there at all. It was just a trick, I tell ya. It must have been. Boss, what are you gonna do? Well, do a plenty. Come on. Well, show them fellas that Ace Dolan ain't to be fooled with. Get up there! Get up there! Excitement ran high during the casting of the ballots. The greater part of voting was done in the county seat, and everyone knew that whichever candidate carried Buffalo Point would also carry the county. When the election was over, everyone crowded into the cafe to hear the final returns. I've met a peep owner. Most likely you are ten votes for Charlie in the whole county.  They oughta have them votes counted for now. Well, I bet the sheriff hated to have to stay in town till it was over. And it's Charlie that's gotta went out for reasons. Look outside. The chair's coming now. Charlie ain't looking so happy. Here they are. What's the vote? Who's sheriff? Hey, Pete, did you win? Come on. Tell us what the count was. Pete, quiet! We did! All of the votes are in and counted. Are you still sheriff Charlie? I got 150 votes, and peep got 463. Quiet! I'm turning over my badge to Pete. And the first thing I'm doing is new sheriff is to put you in jail, Charlie. You can't do that! You've got it coming.  You bullied everyone in town to try to get justice. It ain't true! You're lucky you're just getting jailed instead of hugs. Jailin's too good for you. It ain't fair! What's going on here? Where's that blasted sob on? He stole it. He's dead! He said I was dead. You went to the sanitary. Is everybody local?  Arresting me! I'm the law here now. Mark! The election's over. Ace, I got beat out. You got beat out? What in blaze has been happening here? They just told you. Everybody think you get cased in your chips. Well, I mean, who said that? It was the doctor. It was the night you left here. Why, that's pretty...  But, Ace, if there weren't something wrong with you, why'd you leave here? Because that blasted old coot told me my brother was going to be jailed in harmony. On my ID, it is the Mask Fellow. The Mask? Yes. He figured if we could trick Ace into leaving town like he did, we could spread that story about him ailing back. Why?  Then, when folks got to believe in you as dead, Ace, they wasn't scared no more to vote again, Charlie. It ain't fair, I tell you. Why should just me and Ace get jailed while all the others get away? They didn't. The Mask Fellow and his engine pardoned me.  You aren't the sheriff, then. No, but we figured if I lost out, we'd let him go. And if I didn't, we'd have him where we could jail him. You're not going to jail me. Look out for the gun. Look out for him. Last you took a... Oh, my... A Mask Fellow shot you. That's the Mask Man we was talking about. There he goes. Take him away. We want to thank him. Hold on, fellas. That hombre done a heap for us, but you ain't got no more chance of thanking him than you have about thinking him. And why not? Because he's the Lone Ranger.

Hello, this is Hans van der Kwas senior lecturer at IHC Delft Institute for Water Education. In this video I will show you how to find the EPSG code for your projection that you use in your project in GIS. In the past we had to manually choose our projections from the graphical use interface or use many different parameters to define it from the command line. This caused a lot of confusion among different projections within the same project. Nowadays most GIS systems use EPSG codes as spatial reference system identifiers, or ESRITs. And EPSG definition data for identifying projections and performing transformations between these systems, while some also support ESRITs issued by other organizations, such as ESRI. Here in QGIS we use the EPSG codes, which is a public registry of spatial reference systems, Earth ellipsoids, coordinate transformers and related units of measurement. Each entity is assigned an EPSG code between 1024 and 32,767, along with a standard machine readable well-known text representation. This catalog is actively maintained by the IOGP Geometrics Committee, where IOGP stands for International Association of Oil and Gas Producers. For example, if we would like to represent a Dutch projection in an EPSG code, we use the code 28992, which then represents Amersfoort, Rijksriukstelsel, and then a new version. There's also an old version, which has a different number. So by just using this number, we standardize the use of the correct projection. If we want to use the UTM zone that covers the Netherlands, zone 31 North, with the datum WGS84, we use the EPSG code 32631. The codes are also a bit standardized, so 32 stands for UTM on WGS84, and 6 is for Northern Hemisphere, and 7 for Southern Hemisphere, and then 31 is the zone number. If we want to use the geographic coordinate system on WGS84, so with the unit's latitude longitude, we use the EPSG code 4326. So how can we find the EPSG code of our project? Of your work in a certain country, you can always check with the mapping agency which projection is used, and maybe they even know the EPSG code. Often however, that is not feasible. Then you can use these different websites. With spatialreference.org you can search with keywords of the projection in the EPSG catalog. With the second website, EPSG.io, you can look up a country or a region and see which EPSG codes are most often used in that area. If you already have a file, like a shapefile, with a PRJ file, you can upload it to prj2EPSG.org, and it will return the EPSG code. Now I will demonstrate these different websites. The first website that I want to demonstrate is spatialreference.org, which is basically a search engine on top of the EPSG catalog. In the search field, you can type keywords of the projection that you're looking for, such as the projection name and the datum. However, you need to be very precise. It's not like Google that it can guess what you mean, so you can do a bit of trial and error to find out how to write different keywords. So here you see the example for UTM, so 31 North, WGS, and we're looking for WGS84. We see that it also reports other IDs instead of the EPSG. In GIS, we often use the EPSG codes. When I click on the EPSG code, I get the description, and I can export it to different other formats for projections. But for use in QGIS, for example, it's enough to simply copy this EPSG code and share it also with your project members. The second website that I want to demonstrate is EPSG.io. It's an open source project, which makes it easy to look for EPSG codes and projections using also the names of regions and countries. So when I search for Netherlands, I get some results of the most often used EPSG codes in the country. And then still, of course, you need to compare it a bit and find out which one is the one that you really want to use. So here there's the Amos Fort, like Drugstahlsson, new, and it comes with the location of that projection so you can check and it displays in different formats the properties of the projection. The last one that I want to demonstrate is PRJ to EPSG, where you can simply upload the PRJ file that sometimes comes with your shape file. If you have that, you just upload it, click Convert, and it will return in the well-known text format your projection, but at the bottom it will also report your EPSG code, in this case 32632, which is UTM Zone 32 North on WGS84, which can also be read from the well-known text format. In this video you've learned what the EPSG code is and how useful that is in GIS to standardize the projection in a project and share it with your colleagues, and three different websites where you can find your projection and the EPSG code. I hope you enjoyed the video and please subscribe to my YouTube channel if you want to get updates for new videos and you can find more free materials at GISOpenCourseWare.org.


A 25-year-old Kuhn Rapids man has been indicted by a grand jury on 19 felony counts in connection with the death of a 5-year-old girl in August. Zachary Todd Anderson is accused in the kidnapping, murder and sexual assault of Elena Erdle.

Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA the Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. And oh, baby, do we have some big time information to talk about right now, today, on FIFA Ultimate Team. Just literally minutes ago, Foot Watch, which is a very reliable source that knows the code of the car designs and the packs that go into FIFA Ultimate Team, has just tweeted out a new car design and some pack code that we need to take a look at, because this has huge implications on the game for this weekend during the road to the final promo. And through the rest of FIFA, honestly, one of these car designs are this car design right here. This is the LaLiga Player of the Month car design. As you can tell, this is kind of like the LaLiga symbol in the background here, like the circle with the outline. It kind of resembles the LaLiga logo right here. So that is what this car design is. It took a little bit for us to kind of maybe figure this out. At first, I maybe thought it was Black Friday, but then I was like, wait a second, this kind of resembles the League One Player of the Month, just in the way that it looks. So, yes, to me, it does look like the LaLiga Player of the Month, which is incredible. I mean, we already have League One Player of the Month, which gives us the opportunity for Player of the Month and Bape, Player of the Month Neymar, Player of the Month Ben Yetter, who should have won this month, but he didn't. And now we're gonna have the opportunity for Player of the Month Griezmanns, Player of the Month Messi, Player of the Month DeYoung, Player of the Month Bale, Player of the Month Hazard, I said Bale twice almost. Crazy opportunities for another Player of the Month SBC, and that's just honestly insane, that we're gonna have another Player of the Month SBC in FIFA. That just means more voting and honestly, more ways to make coins on this game if they value the SBC correctly. And it's just another thing that EA can use, the tool that they have at their fingertips to change the market and make the market move. So that's the first thing and what I mentioned. We're gonna talk about the second thing more. But yes, this is the new LaLiga Player of the Month card design, tweeted out by Footwatch right here. So that is cool. I would assume that we're gonna look to find some more information on that here pretty soon. We'll have to look at the, you know, do some research, looking at LaLiga pages and figure out how they vote for that stuff. But this is the big one that I wanna talk to you guys about right now. This is the pack code. I'm gonna open the tweet this way so you can see a little bit better maybe. Guarantees a team of the week player from week one to week eight and the current team of the week. So we have guaranteed team of the week packs are in the code. They are guaranteed. And whenever we get code like this, they drop it in the code and then it comes within the next two days. Either today or tomorrow, we're gonna see a team of the week pack in my opinion. Now, are they putting this in the code before Black Friday when the team of the week guarantee pack usually comes out? It is a possibility, but usually when they drop code like this, the content comes within the next two days. And as you can see my friend Cripsy here, he says we're stopping to look at this because this is big time market changing. It's week one to week eight and the current team of the week. So that means that team of the week number nine would be able to be packed from this SBC and technically team of the weeks after team of the week nine. So you could save this pack. So let's say next week, Ronaldo gets in team of the week. You could pack a team of the week player from that current week as well. But I think it would be like one through eight and then week 10. I don't think week nine would be in that pack if you wait until next week. But I wanna talk about what this SBC means and what it could do to the market by first taking a look at last year's team of the week upgrade SBC to kind of talk about could we possibly invest for this? And the answer is yes, because the earlier that you're seeing this video, the earlier you might be able to invest. Last year, there were two team week upgrades. There was the untradable and the tradable. The untradable upgrade costs you about somewhere between 21 and 27,000 coins. Last year at Black Friday, this exact SBC required an 83 rated squad with 40 chemistry. So that's a very, very easy upgrade SBC to do. And the tradable one cost you about 46 to 50k somewhere in that range. And this one required an 83 rated squad with two informs. You had to put in two informs, get 40 chemistry and have an 83 rated squad to complete this SBC from last year. So there is a tradable and there is an untradable. Even though there's only one code that is in what Footwatch has tweeted, only one code that is in there, that SBC I would assume would be tradable and untradable if they operate like they have years past. They do both the tradable and the untradable version. So what does that mean? Well, team of the week cards, one through eight are gonna be in packs. So if we actually look at the, let's just go versions, gold, informs, and sort from high to low by price. There's a lot of cards that are obviously very cheap, but you have these upper echelon of players, all these guys over a hundred thousand coins, Lionel Messi, Mbappe, Mane, De Bruyne, Mertens, Griezmann, Coutinho, all of these cards are going to be available to be packed from this SBC. And I bet if we actually go look on the market right now, I wonder if we will see, especially on a guy like Mbappe, if anybody has started panic selling this Mbappe card already, because these are the types of cards that are gonna get hit the hardest because they're going to get packed a lot. Of course, we have the compare price glitch that is not fixed yet. How many of these cards have been listed in like the past 10 minutes? A few in Bapes maybe? 14150, okay. So there's definitely been a few cards that have been listed that you can't really tell if it's a panic selling or not. But it's gonna be interesting to watch some of these cards prices over here on foot bin because these cards are gonna drop. If you have any of these cards in your team, please sell them, get them out of your club because they're going to drop exponentially when this SBC comes out. As long as the SBC isn't way, way overpriced, but we'll watch that market movement. But the first thing that I would say, if you have a Griezmann, Coutinho, Elevandosky, a 9-golan, anything, honestly, even the Ben Yetter, 310K, get it out, please. De Young, Debala, of course, Messi, like please take the coins on that as quick as you can before these drop any further because they're going to be in packs a lot and people are going to smash these packs. Even if the packs are overpriced, like last year they required, it was like 30,000 coins for the untradable SBC. Even if they make this 40K this year, it's gonna be nuts.  People go crazy for SBCs all year long. And this is the SBC that people can stack and they try to save them and all kinds of stuff. So that's what I wanna say about that. Now, one other thing we can think about is possibly some informs on the other end of the spectrum, which I'm gonna go to a different page for, cheapest players by rating, and we're gonna look at the cheapest informs as of right now. So obviously, people wanna do the tradable version of the pack, right? So what makes that pack go up in price and what makes them put a team a week requirement in? Well, first off, off the bat, you need an 83-rated squad and people are gonna have to use buy two informs or use two informs from their club to start that SBC. So think about it this way. If they're requiring two informs for that tradable SBC and you're only getting one out of the pack, you're putting into, you're getting one.  Now, yes, there are some that are getting packed at the same time and getting listed up on the market, but people do those SBCs over and over and over and that makes the 82, 83, 84-rated informs rise up a little bit as people do those SBCs. So if you're able to get on, right now when I'm recording this, a lot of the informs are cheap, they're like 11, 12K, get yourself some 82s, gets a couple 83s and 84 informs, just basically do a club stock of those if you have a lot of coins and if you plan to do some of these SBCs, it might help you do it for cheaper. If not, you will probably make some coins off of this once the SBC comes out. So again, this is the time where your discard inform investing will probably come in clutch because they haven't moved too much at all this year, but this is the type of SBC that's going to require a lot of informs and a lot of informs are going to be submitted for it. So I would definitely recommend doing a club stock on those and then also on the gold cards because think about it, you're turning in gold cards regardless for this SBC, 82-rated, 83-rated, 84s, maybe some 85s as well, 82, 84s are up, it's a smidge. I mean, we'd have some SBCs out in the game right now that are making those go up. 82s though look very low to me. If you're somebody who likes to go hard on SBC investing, 82-rated players at discard, at 750 or 800 coins is a big time GG for me and you're going to have weak and legal rewards coming out here really soon, basically just after this video goes live. So you might have an opportunity to pick up some bids on 83s, 84s, and a couple 85s. I would definitely stock the club with as many of those as you can. If you're somebody who likes to go unassigned, this would be an opportunity to go unassigned if you really want to go for it. I'm not recommending it. That's not my favorite way to trade, but that is something you guys can definitely look for and see in this here. Definitely go to a club stock at least. Like just go down here on the market. We saw, look at that. Bellotti was one of the cheapest De Rossi, Cazorla. Santi Cazorla is an 82-rated card. It's 850,000 coins. He's going to be so easy to link for chemistry. It says he's 900. During squat battle or weakling rewards here in just a little bit, you can get out here and snag one of these for 850 coins. I'm just going to buy one for 900 because 50 coins doesn't matter to me. I'm going to chuck it in the club. I already have one. Perfect. My transfer list then. Real nice. Thank you EA. I picked a good one. All right, let me try Bellotti as well. I don't think I have him in the club.  Do I have Bellotti in the club? 850, he's not 850. He's not even 900. Okay, so that one on foot bin was an undercut. But you get the idea, especially during weakling rewards in these next few hours, it's going to be a great time to pick up some of those cards. And those SBCs, man, these SBCs, when they come out, team of the weak guaranteed SBCs have massive market movements. They literally make crazy things happen on the market. I can't show you graphs last year really from some of the informs and some of the price tanks that they had, but this is huge for an inform like Coutinho. Because, well, first of all, I can't show you those graphs from last year because last year at Black Friday, that some of the best of team of the weak cards actually went back into packs. That is not the situation we're having here. But it looks like somebody has some Coutinho's and they're kind of listing them up right now for 379K, trying to get some deals and get them out of the club. But these informs are going to fall. You're probably going to start to see these informs fall honestly right away, because people are going to realize, this SBC is coming. I don't want to have any of these informs in my club. They're going to go and sell some of those cards. And especially like a guy like Coutinho, whose inform is only in packs for like two and a half days because of wants to watch, you're going to see a massive correction in his price. Basically these cards are just going to get hit with a ton of supply. Another one I'm very interested in is Sadio Mane. This inform is going to be in this SBC pack reward. He is down a little bit because of the road to the final card, but this card still is a very, it's a very, very used card in this game. You see one here with like a little bit of an open bid. Open bids are a sign of panic selling. I don't see too many Mane's being panic sold at the moment. Any inform Messi's being panic sold. But you're going to see a lot of these cards dipped down at prices. It's going to make very interesting market movements for a card that are similar to these. You're going to start to see panic selling on other areas because people are just going to get their coins because they know this SBC is coming. And again, if you guys have Thursday flips, I recommended that a lot of you guys buy Thursday flips this week, I would definitely say without a doubt, please get out of those cards, buy 6 p.m. UK. And I hope that you bought, maybe, you know, we talked about buying out-of-packs informs. There's probably still people that after Weekend League Rewards will be buying some of those cards up because they don't look on Twitter and they don't see the news that this pack is in the code or they won't understand just what that means for the game. But there's going to be people that definitely know what's going on with this pack and stuff like that too. So I would say if you're in Weekend League Investments, I don't even know if I'm going to be buying anything tonight. I might buy an icon, that would be the only thing if I was going to flip something or an inform or a scream card that just got way too low. That would be almost the only thing that I'm looking at, to be honest, because those are the cards that aren't going to be affected by a Team of the Week pack, but they still could be affected because, you know, people are panic selling to get coins for this SBC. People are going to do that, I'm going to be honest. This is the type of SBC that people will panic sell for and try to get their coins ready so that they can go do. I'm telling you, these Team of the Week SBCs are literally some of the most demanded SBCs in this game just because you can pack anybody from Team of the Week Player Week 1 to Week 8. I know you can't see it all because it's kind of behind my screen, but from Week 1 right there to Week 8, you can literally pack any Team of the Week card. And if we run down, again, those Team of the Week 1 through 8, you can go on a foot bin, go to the Team of the Week tab and look through all of these Team of the Weeks. All of these cards are up for grabs, Thiago Silva, Coutinho, Alexander Arnold, Márez, Ndidi, Di Bala, some of the most used informs in the game like Samedo as well. Like this Team of the Week didn't get a ton of supply when it came out. Samedo's gonna get supplied a lot. 84 rated card, you're gonna see him get packed a ton. Some of these overpowered and very popular informs that are lower rated are gonna drop a decent amount of price because they're going to get packed so much. Digné is another one that I think of or Theo Hernandez, a low rated card is gonna get packed a lot.  Inform drop lower, you're gonna have Coutinho's Inform drop lower, Lukaku's Inform's gonna drop lower, which might drag down the ones to watch a little bit.  So you're gonna see Panic selling literally everywhere across the market. Icons, Rode of the Final Cards. That's why if you guys haven't bought your Rode of the Final Cards yet, pump the brakes on that. Watch and see what happens with rewards today. But if they release a Team of the Week SBC there are going to be people that Panic sell their Rode to the Final Cards even though these are going out of packs in two days to go do this SBC. So literally these types of SBCs or this SBC guaranteed Team of the Week SBCs are market killers for this game. And it's surprising to me that it's in the code right now. I'm really curious to see if it comes this weekend or if it doesn't. I think you're gonna see a Panic sell off either way. And if we don't see anything on Friday and if whatever happens with the new content if the market goes down, down, down into Friday because people are thinking this SBC comes then you might see a decent rebound Friday afternoon depending on what content comes and what packs come as well because EA is not supplying these Rode to the Final Cards the first batch that is. I mean we had 25K packs today but the pack weight still seems to be pretty low. So we'll cover that stuff as it comes up. We'll be talking about it here on the YouTube channel of course and on Twitter of course as well. Make sure you check the links below the description to get linked up with me there. So that's the information I have for you guys today. If you have informs, be careful with them. If they haven't dropped too much already especially if it's a high rated, a very usable card even a Galactic Young or a Gaelic Winaldum at 170K probably gonna drop with this SBC because people are gonna smash it over and over and over. There will be a rebound on some cards too. So we'll talk about that in a later date when we really see this SBC out and maybe tomorrow we'll talk about that a little bit more as well but I wanna get this video out really quick for you guys to let you know what could happen with this SBC and kinda let you know what's going on with this on the market. So a lot of the good play of the month team of the week SBC are coming soon in foot. We'll see what happens when they do come out. I hope you guys have a good luck and rewards. I mean I give you my good luck and rewards. Get yourself that red messy so you don't have to worry about getting the team of the week card, okay? Get that red messy, red tell us whatever it is.
