This is Brett with Summit Automotive. We are here at Summit Fort in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. We are checking out the all-new 2020 Ford Escape. This is an SEL in Sedona Orange. And from this HD video, hopefully you'll be able to tell the styling cues on the all-new redesign of the Escape here. This one's in Sedona Orange, one of my favorite colors on the Escapes. It has the 18-inch rims. This is an all-wheel drive and it has the 2-liter EcoBoost motor, which pumps out 245 horsepower. So we're going to do a walk around so you can see the whole thing from the outside.  This one's nicely equipped. It has the heated leather seats, the navigation system of the Sync 8-inch radio, the 18-inch painted and polished aluminum rims, Michelin Primacy 22560 R18 tires. You can see the type of tread on there. It has the LED running lights, the projector lamp headlamps, and the factory fog lamps. I really like the front grille on the new 2020s. I've not taken this one out for a ride yet, but from what I've been told, it's a very, very smooth and well-put-together ride on this vehicle. Take a quick look at the window sticker here. Feel free to pause it to see the exact options and everything on there. Here's the Sedona Orange Metallic. The interior is Sandstone ActiveX 34530 is the MSRP. This one has the 2-liter optional equipment, the Class 2 trailer hitch, the 18-inch rims for co-pilot 360 assist with the adaptive cruise control. Really a good-looking vehicle. It has the dual rear exhaust, chrome tips, receiver hitch, four-pin wiring, backup sensors, part of the blind spot monitoring, backup camera, the escape block lettering. This one has, so I got the key fob with me, has remote start, power lift gate, but it also has the foot activated lift gate.  Lots of room in the back storage area. Also has a spare tire to close that gate. You can either press the button up there and you know if it has the foot activated lift gate because it'll have that sticker on there to show you. And there's a 12-volt power point back here as well. I'm going to close the gate by that. You'll hear a ding if it senses it correctly and then that gate will come down. Really good look at that Sedona orange metallic paint as the capless fuel fill. And down the rest of the side, really nice as the blind spot monitoring in the mirrors. Intelligent access as the driver's side keypad entry in the door sill there. So the SEL package, I really like the tan and black material that they got in here. Heated seats, power driver's seat, lumbar, factory format, auto headlamps, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, memory driver's seat. Lean keep assist right there. The instrument cluster, the nice digital display, outside temperature display. The heated leather-wrapped steering wheel has some nice thumb pads there. You get the adaptive cruise control which is what that is right there, your normal cruise control. Audio controls on the right you have your Bluetooth and Information Center controls right there. You also have your paddle shifters on the back of the steering wheel here. This one like I said has the 8-inch touchscreen sync radio with the factory navigation. It also has the mobile app so you can do your Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and it has Ford Pass Connect on here as well. AM, FM and Serious XM radio capabilities, the nice black dash trim there. Climate control down there really nice and simple as far as the controls go. You have your heated steering wheel, your heated seat buttons. You have a USB-C down here and another 12 volt power point. 8-speed automatic turned out transmission.  You have your eco mode, your sport mode, your slippery mode and then your snow and deep sand mode right there.  Put it to normal and just more of the styling on the passenger seat. Seats are perforated so they shouldn't get sticky in the summer. And just a keyless entry here, you have your remote start, that rear gate button. Of course down here you have your start, stop feature as well. We'll take a quick look at the back seats and then I guess we'll check out under the hood too. Too much to see under there but in a later video I'm going to show you where to get the door code off of the 2020 Escape. I was able to find that so if you need to find your 2020 Escape door code I have that information for you as well. These seats fold down really nice and easy and they go almost completely flat which is nice if you got to haul some extra stuff of course. And you have your 12 volt power point back here, factory format, side current airbags on the front seats. There's side current airbags on those rear seats as well right there.  And we'll take a quick look under the hood. Really personally like thank you for checking out the videos. We try really hard to show you all the new stuff that we can. Under the hood you have the 2 liter EcoBoost motor, 245 horsepower and really nice and clean under here. Everything that you need to check out is labeled in yellow.

Can I make 40 here? Then you should never hear that President Xi is particularly smart or adept right Never hear about our brilliant years What a good strategist he is. He just seems like a thug So here's big time magazine cover story the world's future is in the hands of president g Personality doesn't actually matter that much No, the world's future is not in the hands of Xi Jinping Personality doesn't matter that much It doesn't matter that much Whether Donald Trump is president or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is president Maybe we're talking 15% difference It's not irrelevant Maybe it's a 20% difference Looking out here from Watson's Bay over to Manley So no Hitler, no Holocaust, for example That's some difference Six million Jews would have likely survived World War II Not right off Hitler But Germany would have still launched two World Wars In the first half of the 20th century No matter who was the leader of Germany It was in their strategic interest to make a go at seizing control of Europe and fight fast quick wars Germany had the potential to win fast quick wars But personality doesn't matter as much as structure China's president is on the cusp of a third term China's president is on the cusp of a third term Never before has the globe been so dependent on one man's whims No, we're not really dependent upon one man's whims He can affect China, he can affect the world So unless he launches a nuclear war which I don't believe he's going to do the world's not dependent on his whims So he can follow more or less effective policies He can be smarter or dumber about his trade or foreign or economic policy But the world is not run by the whims President Xi The world is run by structure I see the water pounding against the rocks Those are structural forces The world is run by the power of economies and militaries The structure of economies, the structure of militaries The geography of nation states The demographics of nation states That's what runs the world It's not Xi's or Putin's whims So even if Putin hadn't been in charge of the Soviet Union or even if he leaves office The Soviet Union is still going to have a strong incentive to do things like invade Ukraine Structural reasons created by NATO incentivised whoever leads Russia to send a warning and to build up protections for the country against invasion to try to secure their country No one task for any nation state is to survive The best way to survive is to be as strong as possible Time, narrated by Emily Wuzeller Back in March 2018 I found my mind wandering inside Beijing's great hall of the people as China's rubber stamp parliament voted to remove the two term presidential limit and scorned in the building's top tier with other journalists and dignitaries straining to hear the proceedings I stared up at the huge red star ceiling motif that loomed over Chinese Communist Party CCP delegates So journalism loves to focus on personalities because personalities are particularly compelling But journalism has no peer-reviewed academic literature, brah It can be compelling But it's not scholarly It's not even necessarily important It's attention grabbing Time magazine, Sydney Morning Herald and the New York Times have to grab your attention So on the course of grabbing your attention they often say stupid things Nearby, two board European diplomats gossiped noisily If we perhaps failed to grasp the magnitude of what was transpiring in that auditorium four and a half years ago It's only too clear today The world has since endured a pandemic that sprouted a metaphysical obfuscation in China's central city of Wuhan So if China had a different leader it's doubtful that its response to COVID would have been substantially different and China's autocratic dictatorial state Brezhnev, remember, he was the supreme leader of the Soviet Union when he backed down against John F. Kennedy in the Cuban Missile Crisis He was removed from power So even dictators don't necessarily have absolute power and spilled across every continent to claim an estimated 15 million lives Beijing has led a campaign of incarceration and indoctrination of its Uyghur Muslim minority that the UN on August 31st decreed Okay, that has nothing to do with how strong China is or how much it threatens the United States These internal factors the personality of leaders the structure of an internal political system doesn't really have that much of an effect on international power relations International power relations are driven by power, economic and military and why the geography and demographics behind nation states Okay, so if a regime employs crimes against humanity it's not going to make it more or less formidable Democracy is probably even more likely to be brutal than the way they wage war because they will tend to picture wars democracy's picture wars that they engage in is good versus evil Russia has backed Russia's February 24th invasion of Ukraine When you picture a war like the war over Ukraine is good versus evil because of the downside there's a lot of compromise and it's harder to compromise there's likely to be much more suffering So I've walked from Kuji to Watson's Bay here and yeah, I'm a little tuckered out Scuses regarding NATO expansion refusing to join international sanctions and amplifying Kremlin propaganda Oh no The architect of all this tunnel was the man in the blue tie sitting along me Afternoon was effectively anointed China's leader for life President Xi Jinping On October 16th Xi's coronation as emperor will be complete The 20th CCP Congress to be held at that same squat building will mark the start of his third leadership term ripping up a long-held convention that Chinese leaders serve only two It effectively ends the institutionalization of political power around the party Ah, so it's no longer institutional because he's taken an extra turn Not necessarily No man is invulnerable It still depends upon people to follow his orders You can't get much done in life if you can't get cooperation even when you're a dictator Read stories in the Bible Kings with supposedly absolute power It still depends upon their lieutenants their populations, their cooperation the mood of the country circumstances, the culture What are variables in life? So who's the boss? Is it President Xi? No, it's the situation's the boss China's economic miracle and instead centers it on a single individual swathed in a cult of personality not seen since Mao Zedong Okay, that's just packaging That doesn't make China more or less formidable Doesn't make China more or less dangerous as a rival Great power rival to the United States Age of 69 Xi becomes China's most powerful leader in modern history But it's an apotheosis that threatens unprecedented instability What threatens instability is the structure of international relations It's the tragedy of great power politics Instability is written into the nature of our life on this planet We are all stuck in an iron cage together And the stronger one party gets the more incentives the other parties have for ganging up against it which is happening now with China Japan India Korea recently ganging up against China You can see the Sydney Harbour Bridge out there on the horizon To the left of it will be the Sydney Opera House which you can't see from here That's the Central Business District of Sydney


Hey, what's up YouTube? I'm Zeke and welcome to The Dream Green Show. As you guys know, I'm a firm believer of investing into what you use, products that you own, but right now I got a special video for you guys. I'm currently overseas in Spain and I'm seeing American companies that are actually thriving over here in Seas. So it's going to make me take a dive, a deeper dive into these companies to see if I want to invest more money because you don't want to only invest into domestic companies that's just doing good inside the United States. Yes, some of those companies are doing great and are profitable, but you want to have a diverse company that is doing well across all countries because the US market could crash, the economy could do bad, but overseas Pepsi could be selling out in Russia because as we all know, Pepsi out sells Coca Cola in Russia, but like I said, you don't want to just invest into companies that's just doing good inside of your own country. You want to invest into companies that's doing good globally. So I'm going to tell you guys what I see with my own two eyes, not what you're going to Google on what companies is doing good overseas. I'm telling you guys what I see actually selling off the shelves with my own two eyes over in Spain. So seeing these companies, whenever you travel, you want to take a look at other companies that are doing good whenever you go on vacation just to see how you're doing pretty good over here. And let me take a deeper dive, a deeper look into these companies to see if I want to invest my money. But before I dive into this video, if you guys would like to support this channel, go ahead and click the link down in the description to Weeble. Sign up now deposit any amount of money you get up to five free stocks valued up to $12,000 with the five free stocks you could keep inside the platform and decide to use it. Or you could sell those five free stocks and withdraw all of your money guys. It's literally free money. Also I left a link in the description to Moomoo's six free stocks. If you deposit $100 valued up to $12,000 once again, you could do the same thing as free money. If you'd like to support this channel, check out those links down in the description. But enough talking, let's go ahead and dive straight to this video.  Now Starbucks is on every corner in every city in America. And it's the exact same thing over here in Spain. I see Starbucks in the airport. I see them on every corner, even over here in Marabella, Spain. Now that is a good indicator, a good signal that you want to look for companies that's just not doing good. That's doing good in that you live in domestically, but you also want to look for companies that are having success outside of your country internationally and also globally. So Starbucks has that same type of impact on coffee even overseas here in Spain. So I'm going to add Starbucks to my list. In fact, they had a big pullback. So I'll be getting in at a great price. I'm going to do a little bit more research on them when I get back home because this is a company that I've always been wanting to add to my portfolio and seeing them thrive overseas is actually me leaning more heavily towards and actually starting to invest and buy shares inside of that company. The second company is Ford. Now Ford actually had 28% of their sales over here in Europe. So yes, even automobile companies, you want to actually diversify your portfolio and not just stick in consumer goods, but the automotive industry over here in Europe with Ford actually having around 30% of their sales. Being sold in Europe is a good indicator and a good way to diversify your portfolio. And actually Ford actually has a pretty sweet dividend right now. So if you are chasing dividends for it, it's one that you want to add to your portfolio as well. I'm telling guys, that's just what I see on the streets. This is not me doing research on Google. I'm just giving you guys, don't take this as professional advice. I'm just telling you guys what I see. So when you're going on vacations, when you're traveling, you actually want to look at other companies out there that's having some success. Take that home, take that knowledge home and invest inside those companies. The third and fourth company is Coca-Cola and PepsiCo. When we went to the grocery store, I didn't recognize anything on the shelves. But when you come across Coke and Pepsi, they're actually selling pretty well over here in Europe. The brand PepsiCo has so many different companies inside their portfolio, like Lay's Pichetto Chips, all the Frito Lay companies. So Doritos, Starbucks ready to drink coffee, Cracker Oaks. All of these companies were in plain sight. So if there's a hundred bags of chips on the aisle, you wouldn't recognize any of them in English, but you always going to recognize Frito Lay, Lay's, Doritos, Hot Chips, everything like that inside of the Pepsi brand. So if I had to choose between Coca-Cola and Pepsi, internationally, I think that Pepsi is doing a little better and actually Pepsi are now about to be dividend kings. That means they have increased their dividends every single year for the last 50 years. So if you're looking to chase dividends and retire off of your dividends and don't have to worry about your dividends being cut, Pepsi is the way to go. Also, Coca-Cola is already dividend kings. They have been increasing their dividends for the last 60-ish years. I don't know exactly what it is, I'll leave it right here. But both of these companies are doing well. But when it comes to the overall company, I like PepsiCo just a tad bit better. The next company is Uber. Yes, we use Uber and Lyft all the time in other cities back in the United States. But over here, Uber is, I don't even think Lyft is available over here in Spain, but Uber is. Every country I go to, either they don't allow Uber and you have to use their taxis. But when they do allow Uber, it's usually Uber and not Lyft. So I've been using Uber the whole time. I've been over here. I'm a firm believer of investing into companies that you actually use. I use Uber when I'm back in the States. And I'm also using Uber as my first form of transportation overseas. We didn't rent a car. We're using Uber to get around from place to place. So pretty much every tourist over here is also using Uber. So that is another company that I need to ask my watchlist to do a little bit more investigating on. But when I get back to the United States on how much I'm willing to invest inside of these companies. The next one is Amazon. Yes, I still see the Amazon trucks, the Amazon Prime trucks delivery packages out here. Amazon is a massive, probably one of the world's largest companies in the world. And even over here in Spain, they're still having their Amazon Prime and today delivery somehow. I know it's not like that in every country, but I'm still seeing Amazon trucks everywhere on every street over here. So of course, I'm already invested to Amazon. But this is just reassuring me that if I see the companies I'm investing into doing well globally, then I know that my money is out there working for me. In the last company, probably the one that all of you guys have all have all used before and ate there before is McDonald's. McDonald's is on every continent, even on Antarctica. I think they might be on Antarctica. I highly doubt it. They might not be on Antarctica, but they are on every continent in the world that people live. There's a McDonald's on every block. And that's the same thing over here. Don't be surprised. McDonald's is not inside my portfolio yet, but it is no brainer that I need to have McDonald's inside of my portfolio, even if it's just one, two or three shares. This company, you can't walk a block in any country, in any city, without saying that McDonald's, the Golden Arch, so I'm probably going to add, I'm for sure going to add McDonald's to my portfolio when I get back to the United States. And that's it dreamers. This video is basically just to show you guys that don't just look for only in America type companies. You want to look for companies that are doing well globally because as you guys can see, if the economy in America crashes, then most of those stocks are going to crash as well. You want to have a little bit of security just in case that happens, that the companies that you're investing in could still do well overseas. But if you do want to help out this channel, check out those links down in the comment section. Get your five free stocks with Weeble. Get your free stocks with Moomoo. That is by far the easiest way to get started. And also, if you want to support even further, you could join the Patreon down below. That would give you exclusive access to my portfolio and every time I buy and sell stocks. So if you want to check that out, that link is going to be pinned in the comment section. But other than that, I'm Zeke bringing you to Dream Green Show. I'm out. Peace.


Purposeful pursuit of national interests, pragmatic issue-based alignments with countries, and a proactive diplomatic outreach characterized and configured India's foreign policy. With an enhanced diplomatic outreach, shaping and stabilizing the geopolitical landscape, focused on diplomacy for development, offering a wide array of citizen-centric services, and promoting an increasingly powerful brand India, these five pillars, following the exemplary India way. The India way now especially would be to be more of a decider or a shaper rather than an abstainer. I think the India way would be a country which brings its capacities to bear on the international system for global good. Last few years have seen a record number of high-level incoming and outgoing visits at the level of President, Vice President, Prime Minister, External Affairs Minister and other Ministers of the Government of India under the Brahad Samparka Yodana Outreach Initiative, undertaken by Ministry of External Affairs, covering more than 190 United Nations countries. Driven by the ethos of mutual empowerment, India has shared funds, technology and expertise with countries in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and Latin America. This development cooperation, channelized through lines of credit and grants, includes assistance in capacity building, training and enhanced cooperation in education and health. Building connectivity at strategic locations has been an important tool for diplomacy since long. The new India is working proactively to connect with the world. The Chabahar Port in Iran is now operational, providing sea-land connectivity with Afghanistan for trading between India, Iran and Afghanistan. There are ongoing projects with neighboring countries also, focused on improving connectivity. Here is the 1360-kilometres-long India-Mayanmar-Thailand trilateral highway connecting Moray and Manipur to Mysore in Thailand, which is set to change the face of the Northeast region, understanding the need to foster global linkages for attaining national development in India. The Ministry of External Affairs is playing a proactive role in facilitating people-centric domestic programs of national development in the country, thus engaging in diplomacy for development. Diplomatic efforts have enabled India to procure uninterrupted and affordable flow of oil and natural gas from major Gulf countries. These diplomatic efforts for energy security are on nuclear energy, hydrocarbons and renewable energy. Through diplomatic engagements with like-minded countries, India took the first step to spearhead the International Solar Alliance that will provide clean energy to millions of Indians by expediting solar energy production. One more project with the Ministry, engaging proactively in diplomacy for development, is the Namami Ganga Program, which was launched to rejuvenate the living heritage, the river of life, the sacred Ganga. The Ministry has at the forefront of securing foreign collaboration and technical expertise for the Namami Ganga project. This is one of the most open countries for foreign direct investment today. More than 90% of our sectors are now on automatic route for approval. And the confidence in India, we have received FDI worth over $250 billion over the past four years. What is giving a fillip to this increase in FDI is the Government of India's Manufacturing Initiative, MAKE in India. The focus of the government in MAKE in India helps greatly in developing not only processes but also people and talents in the country, which is in my opinion the main enabler for growing an economy. Leading companies from around the world are now eyeing India to set up a manufacturing base for their products. The MAKE in India initiative has also ignited a startup culture in India. Today, India is sourcing capital and technology for startups through collaborative ventures with other countries, all of which has been made possible with Ministry of External Affairs mantra of diplomacy for development. In terms of how the whole startup ecosystem in India is growing, that's also benefitting because both talent and the ecosystem is more acceptable to new age fast growing tech based companies in India. Another initiative supported by the Ministry's vision of diplomacy for development is Skill India. An ambitious mission of training 400 million Indians by 2022. Skill India is committed to empower the youth of the country, create a dynamic skill to workforce and transform India into the world's human resource capital. Development focus diplomacy is often seen in the interweaving of flagship schemes of the government. One more such program is Smart Cities, which aims at enhancing the quality of life of its citizens through the application of smart solutions. Several countries have shown a keen interest in helping India realize its ambitious dream of developing 100 smart cities. The Ministry has led the way by forging digital partnerships with other countries to strengthen digital empowerment in the country. Through an investment of more than $300,000, coming from top CEOs and support given by leading companies like Google, Microsoft, Qualcomm and Facebook, efforts are getting channelized for upgrading the country's overall digital infrastructure. Ranging from awareness campaigns like pre-departure orientation training and portals like E-Sanat, Madat, E-Migrate to help people migrate easily. Along with services in centers like Pravasi Bhartia Sahayata Kendra and Indian Community Welfare Fund as well as the expedited passport services, the foreign policy is focused on helping Indians living in the country and abroad. Portals like Madat, run by the Ministry, are significantly changing the lives of Indian citizens abroad who need to or want to file their consular grievances with the Indian government. And linked to Madat is the fully automated system of E-Migrate, which has made the process of immigration simpler and transparent. On the other hand, one such single point window of service for Indians living anywhere in the world are the Pravasi Bhartia Sahayata Kendra, sales with a team of experts working on legal, financial and social issues. Along with assistance in distress, offices of protector of immigrants in India also provides financial assistance and run an insurance scheme, providing compulsory coverage to Indians working in ECR countries, especially the Gulf region. And with the launch of the Ministry's passport-sever project, an era of passport revolution has been sweeping the nation. It is very hassle-free, it is quick and everyone over here is very friendly and it's comfortable now. It took about two months for the passport to arrive, but everything has become so systematic that your passport will come to a minimum of two to three weeks. Today, 37 passport officers, 93 passport-sever kendras and 424 post office passport-sever kendras across the nation and 196 Indian missions and posts abroad are working together to bring passports to every doorstep of the countrymen. Home to all major religions and diverse cultures, the idea of India as a vibrant, pluralistic society has struck a chord, making the world more amenable to India's aspirations. The India way would be really brand India, you know, brand India in terms of what is unique to us as a power, the fact that we have this extraordinary diaspora which connects us in a way in which it does to very few powers, the fact that today we would be increasingly a pool of global talent that our heritage, our traditions, you know, what you've seen happen with yoga or what you see now happening with Indian traditional medicine and also more modern way, I would say shaping the discourse. In building a new India, the 31 million strong Indian diaspora is going to play a critical role by remitting more than 80 billion dollars. This soft power and its contribution and cooperation will help fulfill the dreams and aspirations of all Indians. Thank you.


terrible deaths. One else last night, five others before him, that's six within as many weeks, Inspector. Our friends, neighbors that we've known for years, drained of their life's blood, found dead in bed, lifeless skeletons of skin and bone. Vampires are at large, I tell you.  Boooo! Gotten him a breath, Schneider, don't jest. Ah, that blood-sucking legend belongs in the same category with werewolves and all other peasant superstitions. What's the bats, man? The bats. God, yes. Big ones, so. Oh, now we're switching to bats again. There was an epidemic of giant bats in Clangshloss in 1643. And at the same time, there was an outbreak of vampirism. What? Why, this record from the town archie? Prove it. Says it, not pros it. It is. And on this day was Von Hausmann hanged from a gibbet in the public square after being convicted on a proven charge of vampirism. And on this same day, there did occur the departure of the bats, thousands of horrible flying creatures which infested the town for weeks. And on the night of this same day, February 13, in the year of our lord, 1643, was there a stake driven through Von Hausmann's heart and his head cut off with a grave digger shovel. There. Well, all the records in the world can't make me believe in vampires. There are blood-sucking bats, yes, in South America, thousands of miles from here, but not in Clangshloss. But bats fly. They could fly here. You saw the bodies. All of them. Two wounds on the neck right at the jugular vein. Two wounds on the neck pierced and spread apart just as the two fang-like teeth had bitten through the flesh and right into the veins. And in every case, a blood clot, eight inches from the victim's neck, the mark of the feast, the devil's signature. Does that appear as a mark of a human being or a demon's? God save us, the devils. You ought to make a pretty fair meal for a vampire. But let's be consistent. Are these human vampires or bats? Vampires can take the shape of a human or a bat, just as they choose. Oh, they're magicians. Well, it doesn't make sense to me. The whole village is in terror. We live in closed houses, behind locked doors and bolted shutters, not daring to close our eyes. Fearful lest this unseen, silent death may find us in our sleep, for it is then that it strikes. Swiftly, silently, ghastly. My room is tightly closed. The windows are barred. Nailed down. Nothing can get in. Nothing. But they tell me vampires can go through stone walls like that. God save me. So they can. We've got to do something, I tell you. Grimesloss will become a deserted village. Well, you might catch all the bats and drown them in the river. Call, call. While you're hunting for vampires and chasing bats, I'm looking for a human being. A murderer, a thief. Well, then don't just about it. Do something. I'm trying to. Every hour, every day, every night, since this thing started. Do you hear it? Right after night, lying awake until dawn, waiting. For what? I don't know. That's what I thought. Good night, gentlemen. Don't let the vampires get you. Or kisses dynamite. Don't you like my kisses? Well, how's my mastermind this evening? Well, if you want the truth, not so good. The Burgamister and his grand council still stick to the vampire theory. Stick to it? They're quoting history to prove it. I think you and Dr. Von Neiman are the only sane people left in the village. And you? What about you? Me? Well, I'm beginning to think I'm seven different kinds of a fool. Murders are being done under my very nose. I must be as blind as the bats themselves. I can't find a single clue. Oh, but you will, Carl. You will. Well, I haven't. Oh, Rue! And here comes Diera Gosse to spread good cheer and hope. Just what I thought, slaving your life away in this awful place. It hasn't got that nice, clean, wholesome smell of a hospital. How are you, Carl? Well, quite well, thank you. Well, I'm not. This clammy old place is bound to give me periciditis, androciditis, neuritis. Well, anyway, rheumatism. Do you have some coffee? No, no, thank you, Froschnoppen. No, it's just as well. There's only two cups. Yeah, yeah. That'll take the chill out of your bone. Thank you. Speaking of chills, Froschnoppen, did you know the village is supposed to be infested with ghouls and vampires? Carl! Vampires! Morayas among fiends, demoniacal creatures with huge canine teeth who bite deeply into the necks of their victims to quaff and gorge on blood, warm human blood. There's no such thing as a vampire called Brett Snyder. I don't believe in it. You're just saying that to frighten me. And I just won't be frightened. I'm entirely too sensible to believe in such rubbish. I beg your pardon.  I'm sorry if I frightened you. I said you frightened me. I'm not afraid of anything. Could you tell me where Dr. Von Neiman is? We dropped to the village to see Martha, the old Apple woman. Thank you. Is this what Dr. Halp describes? Yes, sir. She takes it in water. Well, continue giving it to her. Yes, sir. It's just typing in here. Open these windows. Yes, sir. Herman, open windows. They do. They do. Well, she'll sleep well now for us all. You know, it won't be necessary for you to stay here. A good night's sleep will work wonders for her. It was kind of you to conduct it. Oh. Martha has sold me Apple for many years. Always a good, ripe, juicy one. Martha, give me apples. I like. Shh. Oh, I'm so pained. Oh, I'm so pained. She wants a cross. Herman, get. Herman, get. Here, now. For Martha. Oh. She won't let it out of her sight. A terrible experience.  She talks about it all the time. How it flew in her face and tried to sink its teeth in her throat. No, no, no, no. That's no do. They soft like cat. They not bite Herman. She'll be all right. If she isn't, let me know. Thank you for coming, doctor. That's all right. Good night. Good night. Run along, Herman. You can see Martha tomorrow. Oh. Dr. Von Neemann. Ah, Kringdon, how are you? Much better. Thank you kindly, sir, since you prescribed for me. That's right. Good event, Herman. Good event. You shouldn't be falling on the streets. Dangerous. I'm afraid. Afraid? Afraid of what, Kringdon? The bats, sir. Big, giant bats with wings like an eagle. You saw this back, you say? I saw it swooping down the street. It came directly from my throat, sir. When was this, Kringdon? Last night when they came to take Von Elz. It was a big monstrous thing. I saw it leap across the alley and into a window. I ran just as fast as my legs could carry me.  There's enough fear in the village already. Maybe I should. Maybe I should. I will. I'll tell the burgermeister. Yes, Kringdon. That's the thing to... No. Bats. Bats, good. They not hurt Herman. He plays with them. You, you'll no tell. No. No, no, no, no. Go to bed, Herman. Go on. Go on. Go to bed. You say he plays with bats? His garret is filled with them. He makes pets of them. That's odd. Very odd. Maybe, maybe he's it. Herman prowls around the streets all hours of the night. Just like an animal. Maybe he's the vampire. Don't sound any gossip about that, Kringdon. Heaven only knows where it might end. Good night. Good night, sir. No. Nice. There. What did I tell you? Perhaps there's something in what Kringdon says. Seems strange that a human being should want to play with bats. He is a human, I tell you. He's in league with the devil. Put it on. There. Thanks. Now go to sleep. You'll be all right in a few days with Dr. Sesto. Close the window. Close the window. I'm afraid of the vampire. He said leave them open. But I'd have them closed. You want the light? Leave the light. I'm afraid. I can't blame you for that either. I'll turn it down a little. Good night. If you want me, just pound on the floor. I'll hear you. All right. Good night. Good night, Martha. Oh. Here, Brett Schneider is here to see you. He's in the laboratory with Miss Burton. Oh, thank you. Good evening, Doctor. Good evening, Ruth. How are you, Carl? Well, I'd feel a lot better if I could find the solution to these murders. You don't believe in this vampire theory then? Of course not. Do you? There are many strange happenings, my boy. Many mysteries beyond the power of the human mind to comprehend. Have you a theory which might explain these deaths? Well, I'll be brief. I'll be pleased to discuss it with you, but not now. Not now. I have some very important work to do. Tomorrow then. Tomorrow? Yes, perhaps. We'll see. Well, this isn't so important, Miss Betty, that you can't let it go until tomorrow. All right. Thank you, Doctor. How about, Martha? Oh, nothing serious. Just a case of nerves. That's all. Good night. Good night, Doctor. Good night, Carl. I don't know, like all the rest. The vampire. Yes, yes, that's right.  His hand reached out towards me, as if he were going to sink it into my throat. And weigh this well. He never works and never begs, and yet he appears well-fed always. That's so he does. What does he live on, then? I'll wager to his kringens, says. And my wound was in Martha's room tonight when Hermann put a flower in your hand. Strange business, if you ask me. Mighty strange.  Yes, after what happened tonight, I'd lock myself in my room and pray God to protect me from the devil. No trick, no trick! No trick, no trick. You make up a doctor? Are these two wounds similar to those found on the other bodies? Dr. Hoppe can answer that for you, sir. Yes, they were the same in every case. This is a strange condition, Carl. So strange that I doubt the evidence in my eyes. What was your conclusion, Hoppe? I diagnosed the wounds as having been made by needle-sharp teeth. Tentures are clean cut, penetrating into but not beyond the jugular vein. Do you mean to say that you also believe they could have been made by teeth? Frankly, I do. Ah, you see, Brett Schneider? What kind of teeth, doctor? An animal of some sort. It's hard to say. The fangs of a wolf, perhaps. A rare wolf. Could they have been made by, well, a bat, for instance? A certain species, yes. There are vampire bats. Dr. William Jamison, who explored many of the tributaries of the Upper Amazon, states that blood-sucking bats do exist. He further asserts that the victims often become blood drinkers themselves. Citing a case in which he saw a native, tortured to death in an actual by his tribe brothers, they swore he had become a human bat. And, states Jamison, he confessed it. Do you mean to say that such a thing as a human vampire is possible? Who can say? Historic records would have us believe that an evil soul, assuming there is such, can take any shape it pleases. So why not get into that of a human being? Eh, Carl? Why not? Have you any literature on the subject, doctor? Yes, I have many interesting volumes of my shows that my crew very enlightened. Glad to show them to you. I don't mind admitting that I'm up a tree. Stumped. Well, we'll see what could be done, my boy. No, no, no, Herman. This is no place for you.  Go away. Good night, Sean. Good night, doctor. Good night, how? Good night, doctor. Good morning, Carl. Thank you, doctor. I'm sorry to have dragged you out of such an ungodly hour. Oh, that's all right. That's all right. Fleeing in the horror from the sight of death. There goes the vampire. Arrest him. Lock him up. Kill him! Has the entire village gone mad? Herman wouldn't harm a baby, and you know it. I've walked the streets of this village for over 40 years. But tonight's the end. He knows that I've totally plagued with bats. He knows that I saw him sneak into Martha's house all midnight. Perhaps he was taking her another flower, Kringham. The boy brought her on the ceiling while I was there. He killed her just like he did all the rest. And now he's going to kill me. Unless he's killed in a state different to his heart. I'm a doomed man.   I'll do! Good morning, Mr. Bretchneider. What brings you to Klein Schlossowale? You? Fibber. I heard the doctor tell Georgiana he expected you. I knew there was something else. A barricader called, not a very convincing one.  But it's all for our schnappen. But what seems to be the ailment this morning? What's that? What seems to be the ailment this morning? Well, doctor, I am positive that I have valvular declege of the aorta. Or maybe it's the right ventricle. There is something wrong with my heart. I can hear it beat, thump, thump, thump, thump, just like the book says. I will say there is something wrong. What? Without a moon? You have a heart of stone. All right, then. Close your eyes. No. Oh, so, young lady. It's too early in the morning, Carl. Much too early. Oh, is it? Oh, there's that Gussie. She would show up just at a time like this. Oh. Gussie, what's the matter now? I have palpitation of the auricular, ventricular, and microvalves. Is the chord egg tendency? You mean your heart's beating? Of course it's beating. Dr. Van Neelan, he tried to assure me that I'm not able to go just like that. Did he piss-cry before, you dear? Yes. Monacid esters, salicylic acid. You mean salicylic acid, don't you? Well, salicylic acid, salicylic acid. Help me. Help me. My heart is much quieter. Dr. Van Neelan, go on, won't you? Yes, of course I will. Well, I'm not gone yet. You can't marry her, unless I say so. Don't forget that. After a while, what you need is what? What, dear? Quiet. And Gussie has a heart like a steam engine. Carl. You've cut yourself. See? Blood. No. No hurt in all you poor thing. Now, you wait right here, and I'll run in the house and get something for that finger. A subcutaneous wound like that might easily result in a tetanus infection. Tetan, tetan. Tetanus, rock jaw. Now, but you need to be afraid. The way you talk, I think you've got it already. Look, here's a nice juicy apple for you. Oh, this is it. Très soon as appréciant date a spritz une vampire dorm calomé in 1746. Let us suppose that these corpses do not actually stir from their tombs, but only the ghosts or spirits appear to the living. Wherefore, do these phantoms present themselves and what is it that energizes them? Is it actually the soul of the dead man which has not yet departed to its final destination? Now, how could a corpse buried under four or five feet of buried get out to do any such foolishness? I don't believe it. It's a fair question, Doctor. How could it? Well, according to accepted theory, the vampire dematerializes its body and reintegrates it outside the grave. It's a good explanation, if you can believe it. And while I'm standing here listening to all this rubbish, there's a poor man in the garden in danger of a tetanus infection. Now, what should I do for him, Doctor? Shall I apply a macrophone to get some gauze and some macrophone? Thank you, Doctor. I'll wait here. Difficult to believe, isn't it? It's impossible to believe. And yet, it would explain these deaths, wouldn't it? Pardon their intrusion, Dr. Von Neiman. But after what you saw last night, you'll be interested in this as well. But what happened? Gringon was found dead an hour ago with the two punctures in his neck and not a drop of blood in his body. And what's more, Herman Glaib has disappeared. What? Now are you convinced that we were right and you were wrong? I'd be proof enough for anybody. Gringon said Herman would get him, and he did. Well, Bretschleider? I appoint you my deputy. Organize a certain party and comb this countryside from one end to the other. Find Herman Glaib and bring him in, but don't harm him.  What good will that do? He is a vampire. There's only one thing for us to do when we find him. Kill him and drive us take to his hide. Herman Glaib will be tried by a court of law. The charge against him is proven true. The law will decide what to do with him, not you. I'll get your men together and do as I tell you. That's the way to talk. I'm going into town for a little while, Doctor. Would you care to come along? Oh, I hardly believe so. As it'll be done until they find the boy. If you need me then, I'll... I'll let you know. I feel as though I was going to faint. There, Auntie, there's nothing here to be afraid of. Come along now and take care of that patient of yours. Oh, heavens, I forgot all about him. Oh... Oh, my heart. Poor Auntie. She's had every ailment in the book. And a lot that aren't, I'm afraid. Particularly a palpitation of the auricular, ventricular, tricuspid, and micro-valves, Doctor.  You mustn't do that. Now, where's that finger? You good like Martha. Martha. She give me apples.  Are you Herman? Me, Herman. You give me apple? Herman give you nice, soft bat. I just found this in Amel's room. It belonged to my friend, Martha Mueller. Are you certain? I gave it to her myself. Martha died last night. I find her crucifix in Amel's room. Doesn't that mean Amel is the one Hair-Bretchnider is seeking? This amazed me, Georgiana. It rained the night Von Elst died. There was mud on Amel's shoes the next morning. Have you mentioned this to anyone? I intend to tell Hair-Bretchnider when he calls again. I can't believe it. Leave this with me. I want to talk to Amel before you say anything to anyone. The burgermeister should know at once. Yes, all in good time. Amel has been with me too long for us to jump at conclusions. Don't say anything until I tell you. And send Amel to me. Very well, Doctor. That's for the neuritis. The pepsin, that house and fabric is tougher than shoe leather. And sweet spay to the nighter. That'll help if you shouldn't do any harm. And the ginger. That'll warm us down. And now, a little pipe out of soda. Careful, Amel. Just tell you, Doctor, we simply couldn't make Georgiana hear the bell. That's quite all right, my dear. Georgiana's becoming careless. Very careless. Yes, I've noticed that too. In my opinion, she has Negana. That's sleeping sickness. You know the symptoms, Doctor. At first, I thought it was creeping paralysis. So I stuck a pin in her leg to see. And there was a splendid reaction of the reflex molliner. Why, Auntie, you're shocked. So was she. Won't you go me and some coffee? There are a few questions I'd like to ask you, Pa. About blood, and murders, and vampires, I suppose. Yes, I'm afraid so. Oh, so am I. Well, good night. If such a thing is possible, I'm going to bed. Won't you join us too, Flora Snapplin? Coffee at this hour of the night? No, thank you. I'm going to stick to my monastic vest or salic salad. Ask the Doctor, ask him. Good night. What's the news in the village, Carl? Have they located Helming yet? No, not at Trace Helming.  You know, I simply can't bring myself to believe in that vampire theory. Yeah, will you pause? Good night. I know, Carl. Our Sena Karma judgment tells us that such things can't be, and yet, here, for instance, in this ponderous tome, are cited as thousand-and-one phobias and complexes that human beings are heir to. Some of them are strange, more untenable even than werewolves and vampires. Could I have some more, please? You drink entirely too much coffee. Not my one weakness. And also my excuse for tolerating Georgiana's laxity and other things. She does know how to make good coffee. Thank you. She brings it to me every night at exactly ten o'clock. And when I've drunk it all, then I know it's time to quit. Yes, and eat breakfast so you can have more coffee. Oh. You mustn't lie like that. You'll get yourself a tartar to cool it. I'm silly imagination. I mention that as well as yours. Words to her by angry ones. A petulant reprimand that I've been late with my coffee. What time is that? About two or three minutes after ten. She's been dead then, about 45 minutes. Bloodless like the rest. Passes all belief. Ruth's aunts saw Herman Glybe in the garden this morning. Could it be that he... The first one here? I was in my room reading. My door was open. I must have dozed off for a minute or so because I woke to hear Froschnoppen scream.  Yes, my room was very poorly ventilated. And you saw nothing? Hurt nothing unusual? Nothing. This crucifix. Belong to Martha. Can you positively identify this as belonging to Martha? Without a doubt. I saw it in her room the night she died. How in the world did it get here? Herman Glybe was in her room. He had that crucifix in his hands. And Herman was here today. Maybe here now for all we know. She's had a real shock this time, but she'll be all right. I'm putting her to bed. Leave her there. Don't let her out of this room. And don't you leave it either. What do you mean? It looks as if Herman Glybe is the killer after all. It's possible he may be hiding here in the castle. I hope it makes you think so. I'll tell you later.  Don't worry about that. And I don't think there's any use for them searching for Herman. They should look for a dog, a human-faced dog. And if the doors and windows are all locked, there's nothing to be afraid of now. Who said I was afraid? I'm not a bit afraid. No, of course you're not afraid, but you must get some rest. Rest in this awful place? With dog-faced Herman's and human-faced bats and blood and murders and vampires? Find anything, Carl? There's an unbroken cowboy within that window. If Herman did it, he came through the door. He must have. And yet I don't understand how he could find his way up here without us hearing him. Yet Emil was asleep, and I was in the library. Yes, he could have done it. The facts all point to it. What was it, Emil? The Bergermeister. He has news for her Brett Snyder about Herman. Doctor, pardon the intrusion. I knew Carl was here, and I thought you wouldn't mind if I ran in to tell him the news. About Herman? Yes, he fell into the devil's well in the cave. He's dead? Dead does a doornail. This ends our troubles, Carl. The vampire's dead. I can feel it in my bones. Well, your bones may be wrong. What time did this happen? Quite early, about nine o'clock. The cave is nearly two hours from here. That's why we didn't hear it sooner. Well, it may interest you to know that there's been another death after your vampire died. Who? Doctor von Neymann's housekeeper. Right here in her own room. Mother of mercy! What are we going to do?  You know the accepted theory? A stake driven through the heart? Oh, yes, that's the theory, all right. But... but... But what? But they did. They drove a stake through his heart. Good God, are we living in the Middle Ages? It wasn't through my sanction, Carl. Masawa did it. He told me so himself. Well, that ends the vampire theory, as far as I'm concerned. Hermann Gleib died in the accepted fashion for killing a vampire. Oh, no, there's some human agency at work here, doctor. A madman who kills to satisfy some violent sadistic urge. Yes, you're right, Carl.  Did they leave his body in the cave? Yes. Yes, they did. Well, in view of what's happened, don't you think you owe him a decent burial? You're right. In view of what has happened, we do owe him that, Carl. I'll see to it at once, this very instant. And I'll make arrangements for Georgian as removal to the morgue. Good night, doctor. Pardon the intrusion. The night was done. Pardon the intrusion. And that's where I started weeks ago. There isn't a single theory that doesn't lead straight into a stone wall. I've gested about this vampire business because my better judgment told me it was a lot of nonsense. Then I reached the point where I was willing to accept even that. Because it seemed to satisfy the equation. All of us have been superstitious. I don't know which way to turn. Where to look? What to look for? Why should anyone want human blood? Why? Why? Calm yourself, Carl. Calm myself. Calm myself.  About six liters, approximately. Can you think of any purpose for which that amount of blood might be used? No. Not even in transfusions. That's the point which stops me. There isn't any other use for human blood. Murders leave clues. And these atrocities are murders, doctor. Those simple fools in the village can believe what they like, but you and I are sane thinking people. And you know and I know, doctor, that these are murders. The last one was done here. In this very house, right under this roof. All right, I'll start here. I'm going over every foot of this place, both inside and out.  And I'm going to find that clue. Now, come, Carl.  These will help to give you a good night's sleep. There are any clues? They'll be here in the morning when your nerves are calm and your mind is clear. Take my advice and go home. Rest. I imagine a thousand demons were after me as I came down those stairs. Ruth, didn't I tell you to stay in your room? Yes, but I wanted the doctor to come up and quiet Andy. You know, it isn't her imagination this time. Of course, Ruth. I'll come right away. Take my advice, young man.  Good night, Carl. Good night, Rose. Good night, Carl. Good night, doctor. If his lights are on, you must wait, Emil. Wait until he has gone to bed. Handle him as you did the others, Emil. You are strong. Very strong. I'm waiting for you. Waiting for you to bring him to the laboratory. You. You're the one. What mad thing are you doing? Mad? Is one who has sold the secret of life to be considered mad? Life. Created in the laboratory. No mere crystalline growth, but tissue. Living, growing tissue. Life that moves, pulsates and demands food for its continued growth. Huh. You shudder in horror. So did I the first time. But what are a few lies they weighed in the balance against the achievement of biological science? Think of it. I have lifted the veil. I have created life. Rested the secret of life from life. The end for the lives of those who have gone before. I have created life. I'll tell Carl. Carl's name will be added to yours. And all of those who miss the cheap but will immortalize. I didn't take your sleeping tablets, doctor. He's the one who murdered them. Stay where you are. You'll have a chance to tell everything, doctor. Get her out of here. You stay here. For Neiman and Emil. Carl, she mustn't see them. Neiman, I must see them immediately. I guess you can't. He can't be disturbed. Oh, but I must see them. I simply must. That hydrous magnesium sulfate he gave me is affecting me more peculiarly. You'll pardon me. Hydrous magnesium sulfate. Well, that's epsom salts.


U.S. Navy destroyer shoots down missiles, drones headed to Israel. The USS Kani, a naval destroyer of the U.S. in the Red Sea, has shut down multiple missiles and drones launched by Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen, weapons that the Pentagon says were heading along the Red Sea potentially towards targets in Israel. Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder said that the Pentagon could not yet say exactly what the missiles and drones were aimed at. However, it is known that they were launched from Yemen and headed north along the Red Sea potentially towards targets in Israel. This action was a demonstration of the integrated air and missile defense architecture that we have built in the Middle East and that we are prepared to utilize whenever necessary to protect our partners and our interests in this important region. Ryder said he said that the United States is ready to use its air and missile defenses in the Middle East to protect its partners and interests in the region. Another source said that the missile was fired by Iranian-backed Houthi militants involved in the conflict in Yemen. The U.S. has said the increased presence is intended to deter malign actors such as Hezbollah or Iran from expanding the conflict. The USS Dwight Eisenhower aircraft carrier strike group is headed across the Atlantic to join the USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group which is operating in the eastern Mediterranean. Three ships with the USS Batan amphibious ready group are positioning thousands of Marines in waters near Israel. A squadron of A-10 attack aircraft has arrived in the Middle East with another A-10 squadron's deployment extended. More F-15 and F-16 fighter jets also are rolling into the region.

My name's Ken Williams, and we have a big ATP 1000 event this week the Canadian Open in Toronto In Canada it's a huge event on the calendar for the US Open Which is only a couple of weeks away. Of course, it's a split event as well with a WTA But we've got some big names playing in this one It's gonna be a big big event we have some huge names that are not playing in this one So let's go to the withdrawal list. All right starting with the withdrawal list here We have Mateo Baratini. He's not playing bronze medalist at the Olympics Krinyo Buster also not playing. Chorich is out.

He gets a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of Evans versus Bublik who are going at it in the first round So that'll be an interesting matchup either way for Medvedev very tough opponent coming his way Then we've got a qualifier versus Fritz winner of that match takes on the number 16 seed Sinner in the second round who had a great week last week on the hardcourt Then we got the number 12 seed Diminor getting a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of the wild card Brooksby and Basilash Vili who are going at it in the first round Then we've got catch Menovic versus Nishikori winner of that match takes on the number seven seed who be her catch So a lot of big names to watch out for in this one Of course Daniel Medvedev gonna be keeping an eye on him this week Also got to keep an eye on Yannick's thinner who's had a really good week on the hard courts this week making it to the Final of the Washington Open and I'm also interested to see how Nishikori does this week who is also playing really well this week in Washington so very stacked part of the draw not to mention guys like her catch and Diminor who are also very dangerous So there's the big three that I'm gonna be watching out for this week But it's gonna be a very interesting part of the draw and it's not gonna be easy for Medvedev going to the second quarter of the draw We have a number four seed Rubelev getting a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of Strouf versus Fanini who are going at it in the first round Then we've got Isner versus Vakina winner of that match takes on the number 13 seed Garin in the second round then we've got the number 11 seed Monfice buy in the first round He would take on the winner of Milman or a qualifier in the second round Then we've got a qualifier versus quarter winner that match takes on the number five seed Shapavalov in the second round So this is kind of a bit of an open draw for me because you've got some really big names that you should be watching out for But overall I wouldn't be surprised who gets out of this one Of course you gotta watch out for Rubelev and Shapavalov both young players and both the high seeds in this part of the draw But I'm also interested to see how Isner does being an unseeded player playing in North America He does like playing on hardcords so very interested to see how he does in a pretty open draw This is a very wide open part of the draw and of course this part of the draw takes on Medvedev's part of the draw So potentially a Shapavalov versus Medvedev's semi-final or Rubelev versus Medvedev could be in the semi-final stage If it all plays out going to the bottom half of the draw now We've got the top section of the bottom half number six seed Rude who's had a great clay court season He won three titles back to back on clay. He gets a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of Ramas Finales versus Chilich who were going at it in the first round Then we've got Lyovic versus a qualifier winner of that match takes on the number nine seed Felix Ogea Eliasim Then we've got the number 15 seed Karatsev He'll take on the winner of Nori or Hashinov in the second round and both of those players are in great form So circle that one as one to watch then we've got Senego versus Umbair winner of that match takes on Siti pass the number three Seed in the second round So really interested to see how this part of the draw goes because there are a lot of good players Not only the seeds but also the unseeded players of course we're watching out for Siti pass He might have to play Umbair in the second round who actually beat him at the Olympics a couple of weeks ago So want to see how Siti pass does this week also Casper Rude Want to see how he can convert his game from clay courts onto the hard courts because we have no more clay court events in 2021 so he's gonna have to play well on the hard courts if he wants to get into the A2B finals at the end of the year and Also interested to see how Hashinov done this week after getting to the gold medal match at the Olympics a couple of weeks ago See how he does on the hard courts this week and going to the bottom quarter of the draw now We've got the number eight seed Schwarzman. He gets a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of Pear or McDonald in the second round Then we've got Pospasul the wild card taking on a qualifier winner of that match takes on the number 10 seed Batista Ragu in the second round Then we've got the number 14 seed Dmitrov getting a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of the wild card Kirios or Opelka who are going at it in the first round That's a huge first round matchup circle that one is one to watch very excited to see that one Then we've got Harris versus a qualifier winner of that match takes on the number two seed Rafa Nadal so for me This is the most exciting part of the draw because of course we got Rafa We're gonna be watching out for Rafa this week the number two seed had a pretty disappointing week last week in Washington was a little bit injured as well actually lost to Harris in that ornament and he might have to blame again in the second round So there's already a blockbuster matchup on the cards and of course Kirios If you can get through Opelka and Dmitrov will set up that third round match with Rafa if they both win So very interested to see how Rafa and Kirios do in this event and of course got to watch out for Diego Schwartzman the number eight Seed he's played very well on the hardcourts over his career He's got a pretty good part of the draw if he can get through the first couple of rounds and with Rafa being in a pretty Tough part of the draw who knows if he's even gonna get through so Schwartzman He can make a little bit of a run for this and maybe make it to the semi-finals And of course the winner of this part of the draw will take on the city pass part of the draw So it potentially have a city pass versus Nadal semi-final or maybe a Schwartzman versus city pass semi-final Or even in a dial versus FAA semi-final But again anything is possible to have anyone in the semi-finals because these parts of the draw are very very wide open Especially with Rafa losing last week in a bit of an upset who knows what he's gonna be feeling like this week So there could be anyone in the semi-finals big opportunities for even the unceded players in this part of the draw So there it is the Canadian open for the ATP and it's a pretty stacked draw even the unceded players are very very dangerous Of course we got Nadal down the bottom Mehvedev up the top we'll see how they play because over the last couple of weeks they haven't played great We've had Mehvedev losing at the Olympics in a bit of an upset Of course Nadal lost last week to Harris in an upset which could be a second round matchup Very interested to see how that one goes this week Let me know down in the comments below who are you most interested to watch this week? And who is going to win this event because I don't think it's as straightforward as picking the one of the best seeds All right having a look at the draw and like I said, it's a very wide open draw It's not as straightforward as it's going for the best players in the world, but I'm gonna go with Andre Rubelev I feel like he's got a really good part of the draw I know Shapovalov is a dangerous player, especially playing in front of his home crowd But I think Rubelev has a pretty good draw and especially if Mehvedev was to go down early Rubelev might be able to sneak his way to the final and with Nadal and Sidney Pass getting a pretty tough draw Who knows who will be playing that final so I'm gonna go with Rubelev to make it and win his first ATP 1000 event Again, let me know down in the comments below who do you think will win this one with the Canadian Open? We didn't have it last year, but we have it this year and it's a pretty stacked event


Welcome to Toffy TV. Obviously, we've got the sad news that Richarlison has left Everton to join Tottenham Hotspair. Yeah, four years come to an end. Obviously a very talented player, a player who gives us all for Everton. Obviously he's wanting to take the next step in his football career, at obviously 25, obviously midway into his football career. Yeah, he's summed it up quite nicely. He's come in, done really well, double figures every year and moves on. It's sad because you don't want to see a better player leaving a football club, but I think we were expecting him to move on, really. We knew he'd have to sell one of those big hitters this summer, and he was the most attractive one, obviously. I think it might have been a little bit different, had Dominic Alverloo not being injured for most of last season. He might have been the one attracting the pitch, but the flip side of that is Richarlison does want to move on. So it's sad, and it's sad that the football club are in the position they're in, where they've ended up having to sell them by a certain date, it seems. Yeah, it's interesting you mentioned Dominic Alverloo in there. It's interesting, isn't it, because I think we all thought that teams were going to come in for a Arsenal. Obviously it had been heavily linked, and that really just hasn't happened at all. It's funny because I think what we saw in those last two or three months of the season is probably accelerated the move for Richarlison, because that form that he displayed, and not only the form, I think the attitude as well. There's been question marks, and you still see these question marks around from people who don't watch Everton, is that he's sulky, and he has an attitude problem. And yes, the way moments, of course, when he played for Everton, where he was a little bit immature. I think we saw that at the beginning of the season, when it was a Brighton, where he had the penalty of the Barker, where he wanted the penalty, and Dom ended up getting in and scoring it. But I think in the last few months of the season, I think we saw that, we saw a player take full responsibility for what was happening on the pitch.  And I think that slight adjustment in his attitude has really shown people, and certainly Conti, that he will be a valuable member for obviously a team we're going to be playing in the Champions League. Definitely, yes. I mean, Conti, he seems a Conti player, doesn't he? Well, he'll work hard, gives everything when he's on the pitch. He has got quality, he can be better. Of course, he can, I don't think he creates as much as what he should, but then having Harry Kane on the end of summer at stuff will probably accelerate that. But for Spears, it's a fantastic sign, because you look at the front-men they've got, they've got Kane, they've got Sun, they've got Culevesce, they've got Matialys, they've also got Perisic. And as of now, they've still got, like, Lucas Morer and people like that, so they've got an embarrassment of it just really going off. You know, them trying to actually get a trophy or to, you know, do well in the league. They had a good season last season. So, he's gone to a club in the Champions League, got a great manager, some good players, and for him that's a step up. And it's convenient for Everton as well, and that's the big thing, is that it suits Everton's needs right now, which is another conversation altogether. But, you know, it's equally grim, really. And we've got to this point, it's been poor, really poor by the football club. Terrible decisions, terrible running of the club. But it's resulted in him going, but it's come at a time when he wants to move on as well, because he's looked back at Everton and gone. I think of Everton and the, some are being able to get in, like, the conference league or something this season. I think he'd have stayed there, he's been quite happy. He wants to play in Europe, he wants to play in a big conversation. Yeah, I think he's got ambition. He's always backed himself. He said, when he came to Everton, you know, a few months ago or whatever it was, he said, I want to be a starter for Brazil. And at that time, it just seemed nonsensical. And he won the Copa America with them. He won a gold medal at the Olympics. He's obviously secured this place to go to the World Cup with them. You know, there's obviously no doubt about that.  He brings a lot of energy to that Brazilian squad. So he got that nail down, and he said he wanted to play Champions League as well. And, you know, he's stated numerous times that he wanted to do that with Everton. But like you've just mentioned there, the circumstances just aren't just going to, they're not set up for that. And they won't be set up for that for a while and the thing. I think something you understand as you get older, as a person is, and you watch football, is football's careers are so fleeting. They really are. He's 25, he's halfway through his football career. And he's reached his goals and his ultimate goal for Brazil will be playing at that World Cup. So he's reached those kind of levels, won a couple of trophies. But obviously you want to test yourself. And I think he probably thinks, well, I'm leaving Everton actually at a good place for where he is in terms of how he's held up with the fan base.  Just because of the way it was handled and how it was, you know, we never signed the contract. So we'd sort of, we'd known for months. And obviously that relationship, it wasn't the same. But with Richarlison, you know that that relationship's there. And a lot of people are going to understand. Like you just said, because of the stuff going on at the club as well, you know, in a way, it's another one of those. Well, he's helping, helping save the football club or saving its position at where it is. And so I think he leaves with everyone's best wishes. Obviously he wants, you know, he puts the shirt on on the team and it's a different story. But I don't think anyone's going to be sitting there going, you know, out there you leave Everton football club because ultimately, if you can't offer players what they want or you can't build towards that or show promise when they do get to the likes of 25, then, of course, they want to go past his new, you know. This is probably something we're going to encounter where we did think we were going to encounter with Dominic Harbour. And we will have to encounter Dominic Harbour if things don't change very, very quickly for this football club. So it's really, really sad. But as I said, he said he was going to keep us up on a time when I don't think a lot of us actually believed it was going to happen. So I think for a lot of people we, you know, he leaves with our best wishes. No, he does, but it's, I mean, it's sad. It's not sad for the kids because they'll be experienced. Absolutely. Absolutely.  Absolutely. It's the way he is, isn't he? You've got to get used to that because that's, we've had that happen before. We've had that happen before. We've had that with Gary Lynych, when I was a kid, and players just going right away through people.  They've all gone peanut, I've just got to win peanut. If you get older and you're just like, do you want to go on them? Do you want to move on? But it's still it. It's a reflection on the, on our football club. Of course it's not. It's, it's, you know, you look at it and go, you don't ever want to see you go play.  So players do move and they don't always move because it's something better or because they're awful sometimes. They move because they want to do something different and it is gutting for us because I think, I think a lot of people will be more disappointed because it's space who they won't perceive as a bigger club. They never know whatever but right now talking about a better team than ever. Got everything better, better players, better stadium. It is, it's a slightly different one, but I think people felt a little bit like this when Lescott went to Manchester City. And I know that it is slightly different because what we've seen in the city do, they haven't had the, and I think they were, but they were buying better players to become that team that they eventually, they are now. And I think it is similar to that, but with obviously, you know, with seeing what Manchester City have done or what Chelsea have done or whoever, certainly if a club are in the Champions League, you have to just go, yeah. Well, it's more likely to win a trophy at Spairs in years 11. Absolutely. So at this moment in time, isn't it? So therefore that's, and he's in the Champions League next season. Like we said, I think if anything would have been able to do what they should have done with all the money they've had, they should have been able to put themselves in a position where they're in the Champions League or challenging for the Champions League place. And the evidence, they've wasted the money, made terrible decisions. He hasn't been one of them. He's been a very good decision to buy. We haven't, unfortunately, most of our signs weren't like with the others and if they would have been in the Champions League or have won something, whether it be an FA Cup or league or whatever.  You look and go, okay, you know, we just have to get on with it and we do have to get on with it and we will get on with it. And hopefully the money coming in for him will keep the Premier League happy and will give us a bit of freedom to go and get a few players that we need to make us a better side. And ultimately, we might end up being a better team, even with him going and what we were last season because we might be able to bring two or three players in and that make the team stronger than what it was. Yeah, and that would be no reflection on him, by the way. A lot of people will question, a lot of people will say, well, surely it won't be that hard to play when you look at the goals or the assists from maybe last season or the season before. It's not just that, it's intangibles at the time. It's how he rubs off on other players, it's the way he puts in and it's how he's rubbed off on the fans. And like you said before, every generation or whatever, you need a hero, don't you? It doesn't really matter how good they are. Every club has their hero players at that time and it doesn't matter how good they are. If you feel like they are your inspiration on the pitch, then it's hard isn't it? And obviously coming off the back of the end of the season, the iconic pitcher with the flare, that's almost like the bond between the fans at the time where obviously the fans were trying to get the atmosphere going and the busch welcomes and stuff and obviously the blue smoke was a big representation of that and seeing him with it, it was like that bond and it'll be hard for a lot of people. It's just because of the player but because of how it reflects on your football team and as you mentioned earlier, Spears in the Champions League though and a lot of people might say, you were Spears, you know what? Where Spears are right now is where I'd absolutely love to be as an Evertonian and they've done it in the right way and the people at the top of the club have made sure that they've got there and they've had their ups and downs and people have had to go with them at times and maybe they should have but they've kept the squad together pretty much last few years and they've bobbed up and down and kept their best players and they're in the Champions League again It's always going to be a tough pill to swallow if you dig on to one of the top clubs and to be first baser in the top four I think people would have been happier because it's a PSG or anything but he's in this country and we've just got to get on with him and we have to now see if we can make something good come from it History says we haven't been great at that Let's see what happens Let's just have a look at his numbers from his time at Everton 152 games, 53 goals and 14 assists so one in three as a striker and he's not a proper number nine at it Listen, he's been good he's given us some good days he's scored the goaler from good days we've had some good times he's scored the goaler I'm feeling at that when he was a pain in the ass for Liverpool he won the fans up all of the stuff that everyone loves him for he's done that he's had some great performances on the pitch goals that you think are like that scissor kick against United all of that kind I think loved the goal against Wofford so we hope he doesn't love a goal against Everton we've loved them off at me but there was a real connection with him because he's a social media profile and obviously when he first came he didn't speak any English and we've watched him as he's grown into it in English obviously he still lived within Liverpool pretty much and people have seen him taking his dog for a walk or you know... that's how an Everton you know, open Everton training gear and we've seen him put stuff out on social media and he loves winding reds up and opposition fans and all that stuff is just connected so even if like you don't think he's the greatest player in the world the stuff he does it does feel like he's just like a normal lad enjoying the journey and I think you can get behind that kind of thing someone said, try and ask and we're going to hate him at the end because he will even naturally whine what have you won? what have you won though? what have you won though? that's what he'll be saying because he will whine them up because that's what he does but I hope he doesn't go full-sparesy no I hope he's at like I hope he goes full-sparesy I hope he's a part of the man in two years and then Everton is clubbing it's a part of footballer you always want to be the one like anything when you're leaving a job or maybe a partner or you're leaving a team or whatever you want to be the one that's doing the leaving or doing the selling when it's the other way around even though Everton quite happy for it to happen us as fans probably we weren't that different to leave Everton because once the good players disappear you start fearing for it but we're holding up we've been through it before many times hopefully the next one is around the corner the next one to leave no the next one the next hero well we've still got we've still got time at the club I've doubled down on Dom today I've doubled down and we're in this T-shirts are available I am doubling down on it and like I said before if you're thinking it's because of the Alps and it's going to be absolutely right that's the level of pettyness I'm getting behind today but now good luck to him and you know it's enough for us well it has to be because if we go the other way sad, very sad another hero leaves us do you go and let us know your thoughts in the comments about it listen at least they got it done before any new kits come out so no one gets paid with that on the back of the shirt yeah it's done we can now take whatever money we've got from the sale and try and bring some players into the club and that'll be the next step find some new heroes that's what it's all about the likes of Anthony Gordon can you step up can you take that responsibility and be a homegrown hero that'll be nice wouldn't it so let us know your thoughts in the comments on this one thanks for watching maybe want more great videos exclusive videos head over to Toffy TV Premiere the link is in the description and it's on the screen got two seconds see you later


Hello everyone! We're going to take a look at a very typical first example in optimization in calculus. Here we have an open box that is to be made from a rectangular piece of sheet metal that measures 20 inches by 32 inches by cutting squares of equal size from each corner and folding up the sides. We are asked to determine the maximum volume that can be achieved. I have here for you an animation that was created by our NCSSM creative staff several years ago that illustrates exactly what we're talking about in this problem. Imagine each of these are the pieces of sheet metal that we're talking about in our problem from which we want to create a box by cutting out squares from the corners. And the size of that box is going to be dictated by the size of the square that we cut out. You can see in the blue one on the far left, we cut out very teeny tiny squares. The green one in the middle, the squares are a little bit larger and on the yellow one on the far right, they're a little bit larger yet. We then fold up the sides so as to create a box and you can see this blue one is pretty shallow because sides that we fold up are very short because of the small size of the square that we cut out. In the green one, it's a little bit deeper, but not too deep. Finally, the yellow one is the deepest of all of them and you can see the difference in the size of the box that results. And that's what we're talking about in this problem, is how do we maximize the volume of the resulting box by varying the size of the square that we cut out? If we were to draw for ourselves a picture of what this might look like in two dimensions, we would need to indicate that we would be cutting out from the corner those squares of equal size. Those we will denote by the little dotted lines that you see and whereas we don't know how big of a square we are to cut out, we will refer to the length of the side of that square as x. We know that to maximize volume, we need to be maximizing the volume of a box which is length times width times height. Now the length, once we fold up these corners, is given by this distance right here. Remember that the length of the entire piece of sheet metal was 32 inches, so 32 inches for the entire length take away the x's that are on either side. We have for the length 32 minus 2x. The width of the piece of sheet metal was 20 inches, so if this entire side on the right and the left was 20 inches, once again take away the x's for the corners that we're cutting out. This distance right here becomes 20 minus 2x and that's our width. The height of the box comes from turning up the remains of the sheet metal after the corners are cut out. So the height really is from the length of the side of the square that we cut out. So we have now a volume formula that we can maximize. It is in terms of one single variable, so that makes it a little bit easier. We know we're going to have to find the derivative of this, set it equal to 0, so as to find our critical numbers that will hopefully lead to a relative maximum. It would be helpful though to find the derivative of this if we had it as a polynomial. If you were to multiply this out, you get 4x cubed minus a hundred and four x squared plus 640 x and that's what we can take the derivative of to proceed from here. Our derivative then, by simple application of the power rule, is 12x squared minus 208x plus 640. We need to set that equal to 0 and solve it, so as to find our critical numbers. We can factor out a 4 as the greatest common factor. The quadratic trinomial then factors and we arrive at two values for x. We have 40 over 3 and 4. These are our critical numbers at which if there is going to be a relative maximum, this is where they would occur. Let's talk a moment for the domain of this function, of the original function. We need to keep in mind the restrictions imposed by the size of the sheet metal itself. If x is representing the length of the side of the square that we're cutting out to create our box, obviously it cannot be 0 because then you're not cutting anything out. At the same time, it really can't be any larger than 10 either. If we go back to our diagram, remember that the width measured 20 inches, so you cannot cut out a square that's really 10 or bigger because then this side does not exist. So you could cut out a square that's maybe nine and a half inches, that results in a width here that's really, really tiny, but it is feasible. But you definitely cannot do anything that's going to be 10 inches itself that you cut out or larger. If you keep in mind what the domain is, you quickly realize that the 40 over 3 is not possible in light of this domain. As we proceed to hopefully show that it is at x equals 4 that our relative maximum occurs, we're going to work through it using both the first derivative test and the number line analysis, as well as the second derivative test. The extreme value theorem is not an option because that domain was an open interval as opposed to a closed interval. Let's start with the first derivative test. On our number line, we're going to have the critical value of 4 that we found. Recall that we are substituting this 4 into the first derivative, I've written it down at the top of our page for us. A zero results when we substitute 4 into the derivative. We know that we cannot go any lower than zero, nor can we go any higher than 10. If we choose something a little less than 4 to substitute into our derivative, such as 3, we do arrive at a positive answer. Substituting something larger than 4, but less than 10, we arrive at a negative answer. Because the derivative is changing positive to negative, that tells us our original function for the volume would change from increasing to decreasing, therefore creating a relative maximum at x equals 4. If we wanted to apply the second derivative test, we're going to need to find the second derivative. Remember that into the second derivative we substitute our critical number. When we do that, we come out with a negative 112, which obviously is less than zero. Remember what that tells us. Since the value of the second derivative at x equals 4 is negative, that tells us that the original curve would be concave down, therefore creating a relative maximum. Now that we have proven we have a relative maximum at x equals 4, we can substitute 4 into our original function to arrive at the maximum volume that we are seeking. Recall the cubic polynomial. That was our volume formula. If we substitute 4 into there, get 1152. This is a volume measurement, so remember the units of measure would be cubic units. Therefore our answer would be 1152 cubic inches, or of course you can do inches cubed.
