In this video, we are going to look at how hyperconjugation affects the stability of a benzyl cation. So, we have these methyl groups that are attached at various positions of a benzyl cation and we are going to see how it affects the stability of the cation. So, if you look at this particular methyl group, it's attached to the para position of a benzyl cation and as you can see we have this double bond that's connected to an sp3 carbon atom, right? Now, this sp3 carbon also has this hydrogen that's attached to it and as you've seen in such a scenario, the electrons in this sigma bond, in this carbon hydrogen sigma bond can actually get delocalized, right? So, the electrons in this sigma bond can be pushed into the benzene ring and this is what we call sigma pi resonance or more commonly we call it the hyperconjugating effect, right? So, this will lead to the formation of a negative charge on the carbon atom. This alkyl group is going to act as an electron donor. It's going to increase the electron density of the benzene ring. So, this alkyl group shows what we call the plasage effect. Now, the lone pair that's formed out here is again connected to a double bond. So, we can have resonance out here too and these pi electrons. These pi electrons will now land over this carbon atom, right? Now, we can keep delocalizing these electrons further and ultimately this negative charge will land over here. So, as you can see, just like in case of resonance, this methyl group, this methyl group will bring about a lone pair of electrons, will bring about negative charge at only these very specific positions, right? Now, in one of the resonating structures, when the lone pair lands over here, so when the lone pair is out here, you can see that it's right next to the empty orbital of this carbon atom, right? A positively charged carbon always signifies an empty orbital and whenever we have a lone pair right next to an empty orbital, both of this can overlap and this is going to create a pi bond right over here. It's going to remove the positive charge from carbon and create a double bond right over here, right? So, what's essentially happening is that this methyl group, by a hyper conjugation, is going to help in removing the positive charge from the carbon atom. It's going to help in completing the octet of this carbon and in this way it's going to help in stabilizing the cation, right? Now, if there was no methyl group out here, this positive charge would be stabilized only by resonance from the benzene ring. So, if this methyl group was not there, this positive charge would have delocalized only over the benzene ring. But because of this methyl group, this positive charge can spread out even more. It can spread out even to this methyl group, right? So therefore, presence of a methyl group at the para position is going to add to the stability of the benzyl cation, right? Let us now look at what happens if we have a CH2 group at the meta position. Even out here, we can have sigma pi resonance. So the electrons on this sigma bond can shift over here while these pi electrons can move over to this carbon atom and this will bring about a negative charge on this carbon, right? So CH3 even out here can show a plus H effect. Let us now try to delocalize this lone pair that's created out here. Now, this lone pair is connected to this double bond. So this lone pair can go over here while this pi electrons can move over here, right? So this will bring about a negative charge on this carbon atom and if we keep delocalizing the negative charge will ultimately land up over here, right? So as you can see just like in resonance, if we put an electron donating group at the meta position, the negative charges will only land up at these ortho and para positions at this ortho and para of the benzene ring, right? So the negative charges or we should say the lone pair of electrons will only land at these positions. Now, as you can see, if we put a methyl group at meta, we won't get a negative charge. We won't get a lone pair right under the empty orbital of this carbon atom, right? So there can't be any pi bond formation out here. So the presence of a methyl group at meta will not be able to stabilize this cation. It won't be able to delocalize this positive charge over this methyl group via hyper conjugation, right? This cation can only get stabilized via resonance from the benzene ring. This positive charge can only get delocalized over the benzene ring, but it can never get delocalized over this CH3 group, right? So CH3 even though it's a plus H group, it's an electron donor, but because it's not going to add to the stability of this cation, so hyper conjugating effects of an alkyl group at meta are actually not that important. So you should not give much importance to the hyper conjugating effects if we have such groups attached at the meta position. Let us now look at what happens if we have a CH3 group at the ortho position. In fact, why don't you give this a thought? Why don't you pause the video and try and see if this alkyl group at the meta position can stabilize the cation. Now, even out here, we can have sigma pi resonance and if you keep moving these electrons, if you keep growing your resonating structures, you'll see that these lone pair of electrons, these negative charges will get created at this ortho and para position of the alkyl group, right? Now, even out here, because we have an empty orbital right next to a lone pair, so even out here, we can have a pi bond formation. So just like in case of para, this methyl group will actively help in stabilizing the cation, right? So therefore, just like in case of para, if this methyl group was not present out here, this cation would only have been stabilized by resonance from the benzene ring. This positive charge would only have gotten delocalized over the benzene ring, but presence of a methyl group at ortho is going to help in delocalizing the positive charge even more, is going to bring it even on this methyl group, right? So to summarize, presence of a CH3 group at this para position is going to bring about negative charges right under the cation, is going to bring about lone pair of electrons right under the cation, in both para and ortho, which is going to help in delocalizing this positive charge even more, it's going to bring about the positive charge even on these methyl groups, but if we put a CH3 group at meta, because there won't be a lone pair right under this carbon atom, so this methyl group will not be able to delocalize this cation, so it won't be able to add to the stability of the benzyl cation, right? So therefore, between a, b and c, a and c is going to be more stable compared to b, right? Now, how do we compare the stability between a and c? Well, purely based on hyper conjugation, both a and c are going to have exactly the same stability, putting a methyl group at the para position or the ortho position brings about negative charges exactly at identical positions, both of these bring lone pair of electrons right under the cation and both of these can stabilize the cation via hyper conjugation, so considering only hyper conjugating effects, a and c will have exactly the same stability. However, do note that besides hyper conjugation, there are also inductive effects that are at play out here, right? This alkyl group can also donate electron cloud to the benzene ring via induction, this carbon has these hydrogen atoms that are attached to it and as you must know, carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen, so it can pull these electrons in these sigma bonds towards itself, right? So, this will bring about a negative charge on this carbon atom as some slight negative charge on this carbon. It's going to increase the electron density of this carbon which can then push the electrons in the surrounding sigma bonds and in this way, this methyl group can also push electrons to the benzene cation via induction, right? It's going to push electrons via induction, so it can also show a plus i effect. Similarly, even out here, this methyl group can show a plus i. It's also showing plus h, let me write that down too. It's showing both plus h and plus i. The plus h effects of both these groups will be exactly the same, but their ability to stabilize this cation via induction will be very different, right? Induct effects if you remember are distance dependent and because I have a methyl group, I have an inductive group placed closer out here, so its ability to stabilize the cation via induction will be much higher compared to putting the methyl group far away at the para position, right? So therefore, between A and C, C is going to be more stable compared to A followed by B, right? Now, a quick note out here before I end the video. Even out here, when I put a methyl group at the meta position, even out here the inductive effects are at play and in fact, whenever we have such electron donating groups at meta, just like in case of resonance, these inductive effects turn out to be more important compared to hyper conjugation. Keep this in mind and see you in the next video.


One of the key aspects of ICT economic impact has to do with job creation. Obviously the primary one has been the importance that ICT has on economic growth, which has to do with GDP increases and and that has been quite researched. Another aspect that is critical from a social standpoint is to what extent information and communication technologies can create employment and this is a critical area, particularly in developing countries, particularly in those countries where maybe the economy is not contributing enough to job creation in the context of a relation that is increasingly young and therefore looking for work and we've addressed this from different perspectives. Obviously the more straightforward one is that ICT through its deployment creates jobs simply because you need people to build telecommunication networks or data centers. We call these a construction effect, but there are others that are more important that have to do with the spillover of ICT over the rest of the economy. The primary one has to do with the ability of ICT to unlock growth in traditional sectors of the economy, primarily by promoting sales or allowing for the recomposition of value chains and therefore cost reductions that lead to the increasing growth of certain enterprises. We've seen that it's not homogeneous across all sectors of the economy, but nevertheless we've seen that in the aggregate these unlocking scalability efforts is quite important. And then the third one, the third job creation effect has to do with the innovation effect, is simply by means of allowing new companies, new business models, new initiatives to develop and therefore require additional labor. That being said, there are some sectors where ICT might lead to a reduction in jobs, particularly those that are labor-intensive, but overall what we've seen is over time, particularly in emerging countries, ICTs have a positive job creation impact on the whole of the economy. I believe that the opportunity is quite important because all our research would indicate that the positive impact of ICT on development is neither automatic and not immediate and it requires public policy and policy makers to work in facilitating that positive impact. In particular, when it comes to my chapter, I'm outlining the need for policy makers to constantly monitor the effects of ICT on employment, determining whether there are differential impacts across regions or industry sectors and create those mechanisms that could either stimulate job creation or alleviate the potential disruptions that ICT might have on certain sectors of the economy. So in that regard, I believe that the book brings back an increasing focus on the need to implement very proactive public policies that allow developing countries to harness the more important effects that ICT will have in my particular area, job creation, and in general in terms of the overall socioeconomic impact.


Hello everybody, my name is Andrea and what is a mobile dental hygienist? So you have clicked this video because you're probably wondering, I've never heard of this, what exactly do you do? So I am a licensed, I am a registered dental hygienist where I come to your home and do everything that a dental hygienist would do in the office but I do it inside your home.  So I come in and bring everything I need and believe it or not, it's not too much. It takes me maybe 15 minutes to set everything up and then about 15 minutes to tear everything down at the end and disinfect everything and pack up everything in my car where I have a sterilization area in my home with a full-blown sterilizer to fully sterilize everything. That's a common question that a lot of people ask me is well how do you sterilize instruments if you don't have your own dental office? I have like a mini dental office lab in my own home so I do all of that in my home when I go back home. So basically what I do is I come in and I set up somewhere on your main level so if you want me to set up in your living room so you can watch TV or wherever I just set everything up. So I bring in a patient chair for you to lay down in. I have a side table. I have my mobile compressor unit that has the air, the water, the suction, things you're used to being in a dental office but it's even better because you don't smell those dental office smells. You don't hear that dental office you know handpiece that people hate that noise. I do not use that. I set up my instruments, my polisher, toys for the kids. I have everything needed for your full dental hygiene appointment. It truly is amazing what we can do now these days and the nice thing is too after every treatment I can send everything through directly to the insurance for you so you don't have to submit anything. I do all of the hard work for you. You would only pay me the difference not owed by insurance at the time of your appointment and that is super easy. I accept credit cards, email transfer, cash, whatever you prefer. I've been a dental professional now for about 18 years. Time goes by really, really fast. Primarily in Ontario where I worked for the same office for about 12 years and then I did move a couple times, worked for a couple other offices but I have had my own mobile dental hygiene practice, my own practice since 2018 where I moved from Ontario to Manitoba so Winnipeg more specifically and I can now see patients in Winnipeg and there's not as many dental hygienists in Winnipeg or in Manitoba as there is Ontario so being a mobile dental hygienist is definitely a new thing for Manitoba where most people haven't heard of it. You might see me drive around in my yellow SUV where there's a big sign on it saying mobile dental. I get stopped all the time even when I'm at a red light people roll down their windows they go, hey what's mobile dental so I thought this might help to explain everything for you. It is great for people who are nervous to go to the dentist. Some people truly do have extreme anxiety in going to a dental office so they do not go but then their mouth gets worse and let me also say I do not judge anybody.  It is possible it's never too late to start I promise and kids especially kids can get very nervous anxious they don't know what to expect in a dental office but I come right into your own home. Your children see me as more a friend of their mom and dads who's coming in to count their teeth. I do make it really really fun for children they love it. I have a stuffed animal they get toys stickers kids honestly love it and it is adorable sometimes they don't even want me to leave which is a great sign right plus I do have a cordless polisher so remember that polisher in a dental office that makes noise it's attached to a cord it's kind of awkward well I have a cordless one for kids and adults and people love it.  Sorry guys I'm getting over cold and I still have a cough I probably should have grabbed some water so I apologize about that but please let me know if you have any questions message me anytime I do mornings evenings weekends it's absolutely no problem I also like to be as flexible as possible so my goal is to make it as easy as possible for anybody to get their teeth cleaned and quite often one of the barriers to care as I mentioned before is you're just too nervous to go see a dentist or maybe you didn't like your last dental office because they were pushy taking too many x-rays or who knows what I do not take x-rays either so it's kind of a nice thing where you don't have to feel pushed or any of that so I do everything that a dental hygienist would do in an office but in your own home minus x-rays so I will bring that up too I cannot take x-rays in your home because it's not set up to have x-rays taken but if I feel you do need some then I do refer you back to your dental office easy if I feel like you need a root canal a tooth extraction then I just simply refer you back to your dental office easy me and your dentist work together so that you have the best treatment possible but in a lot of cases most people do just need regular teeth cleaning so I can see you every six months in your own home making it so much more convenient plus it is great for a large family for basically any family where you have kids if you go into the dental office you might have to wait after everybody's appointment you're at the dental office four hours later you're all finally done the nice thing about having a dental hygienist come in your own home is I see everybody in your own home so after I see mom she can then go off and do her own thing and I see a child and then while the other children are waiting for their teeth cleaning then they could be doing their homework or maybe helping clean the kitchen or doing something like that plus for husbands a lot of men don't like having their teeth cleaned or just you know I do get a lot of more I get a lot of moms wives saying can you please clean my husband's teeth he doesn't want to go to a dental office it does happen it's a lot more comfortable for everybody to have your teeth cleaned in your own home the last thing I'm going to mention is I do offer a treatment of if somebody has a cavity kids or adults you do not often have to use the high speed handpiece to drill a cavity I have something called silver diamond fluoride which is a cavity killing liquid so I put a liquid on that cavity to kill the cavity causing bacteria so you do not need to go to the dentist in most cases to get a filling imagine I do the same thing for my own teeth I haven't had a traditional dental filling since I was a child where that was the only option right so having that cavity killing liquid called silver diamond fluoride is amazing for children who don't want to sit there and get a needle a high speed handpiece to drill out the cavity often that cavity killing liquid is enough it takes two seconds I put on the liquid and done plus it's a lot cheaper than your traditional dental filling for one filling it's on average about three hundred dollars for silver diamond fluoride depending on the size of the cavity that needs to be fixed it it could be twenty five dollars to seventy five dollars for all the teeth that's not just one two that's any cavity you have but I talk about that more in another video definitely have a look but I hope this helps please let me know if you have any questions I am very happy to answer anything and I look forward to seeing you for your teeth cleaning appointment I see kids adults seniors I see anybody and I am truly happy to help so thank you guys so much for watching my name is Andrea and I look forward to meeting everybody very soon


Leptin tea and Leptin soup present Inner Sanctum Mysteries. Good evening, friends of the Inner Sanctum. This is your host, the Squeaking Door again. Just, um, sliver in and let me dispel your weariness with a bit of eariness. Oh, no, no, no, no. No, please. Don't sit in that chair. I'm, uh, saving it for rigor mortis to sell in. Oh, dear. I see this is going to be one of those nights when my favorite character gets cute. Yes, Mary, but don't scream blow murder because this is a corpse of a different color. Well, if it's going to be that kind of a story, I'd better tell folks about something cheerful first. Yes, I mean Leptin tea. Leptins is such a friendly welcome drink, and that's because of its brisk flavor. Now, that word brisk is important. It means that Leptin tea always tastes fresh and full-bodied, tangy and vigorous. It's never flat or wishy-washy. That's the reason why Leptin seems to make good food taste better and why Leptin tea is the perfect beverage to serve on your entertaining friends. So even if you're not a regular tea drinker, you should try Leptins. That brisk flavor makes all the difference in the world. And now let's leave the world temporarily, of course. Tonight's story is called The Lonely Sleep. It's an original radio play by Christopher Mayo, who scribbled it during a nightmare. And our star is Carl Swenson, who plays the role of Archie Gold. Murder is a specter which nudges all of us anywhere. Most of us will never murder, but can any of us say we never will? Certainly Archie Gold, 30-ish, bald and mild manner never thought he would murder. Archie was the window display man for Greg's department store. At night, the store is a fantastic nightmare of eerie shadows, covered showcases, cavernous depths and dank stale odors, with only his own hollow footsteps for sound. Because windows are dressed at night. It's night now, and Archie's busy in his storeroom creating his favorite mannequin for shipment to the mannequin factory. Being a lonely man, he talks to the mannequin. And being in love with Esther Newman of the store's accounting office, he naturally calls his favorite mannequin Esther. You've been very mean to me, Esther. The last time I asked you to go out with me, you snickered at me. That's not nice. That's why I had to do this to you. Archie tucked Esther's smooth pink torso into a crate. There. Perfect fit, darling. Perfect. Then Archie wrapped Esther's slim legs and arms in excelsior. Tucked them into another crate. So you wouldn't put your arms around me, darling. Well, he won't get another chance. She picked up Esther's pretty head and placed it on his workbench. Oh, Esther. I'm so lonely. Why don't people talk to me? Why can't I be popular? But what's wrong with me?  What Archie never dreamed was that the real Esther Newman was at that moment slamming the last of her monthly report books closed, clicking off the light, and starting out as a finance office toward the rear door of the store. She stopped by Archie's half-open door when she heard his voice. No, listen to me, Esther, darling. I am making enough money here to buy us a little place over in Jersey.  You're so beautiful.  Why, Archie, go! Sitting there proposing to a dummy. And the dummy's name is Esther. What a coincidence. Esther, you worked later? I didn't know... No.  Yes, I give the mannequins names. Sort of a game. Game. That's him. Well, they don't talk back anyhow. No, they don't talk back. But they're sort of kind. They smile at me. See, I'm lonely. I work all night. Esther, will you go out with me Sunday night? Please, just dinner and the movies. Are you kidding? Why don't you ask your dummy friend? Hey, say what a swell idea. She won't eat much. You can maybe get her into the movies for half price.  Why are you looking at me that way? You shouldn't laugh. You're crazy. You're trying to scare me. Yes, that's it. No, you're not. You are crazy. Don't come near her. Archie! You shouldn't laugh. Archie! No! You shouldn't laugh. My turn to laugh. See, my turn to laugh. You shouldn't laugh. People shouldn't laugh when you're lonely. You see, the specter of murder had nudged Archie. And he's obeyed. This was no mannequin as his feet. This was a woman, warm, beautiful, and dead. Then being scared and lonely other than ever, Archie talked to his mannequins again. This time to Frank, painted and rouged and handsome in Greg's bargain 2950 tweed suit. You heard her laughing at me, Frank. I just couldn't stand her laughing at me again. She looked at her, Frank. You'd think she was asleep. Her neck's broken. See, what am I going to do with her? I gotta think, gotta hide her. Gotta dress the front window, too. Window. The sale of cozy kitten mattresses starts tomorrow. It's a big sale. Sleep on a cozy kitten... I've got it, Frank. The window! I've put her in the window. On a cozy kitten mattresses. Nobody'll know. I meant to learn. So Archie used some pancake maker bringing life to Esther's saloing cheeks and purple lips. He placed her dead weight in a hard truck. He rolled it to the lighted window. An hour later, Esther's corpse covered with gleaming white sheets and sleazy satin quilts. Smiled in peaceful bliss at the empty street. Archie found his work well done. Nothing more to do now. Just wait. I'll go home and wait. That's a good window. You look very pretty in bed, Esther. I've been watching you, young fella. Saw you do the whole thing. What's the matter? Are you scared here? No, no, officer. I mean, I didn't know. Been in the doorway across the street watching you. A lot of work to make enough one of them windows, ain't there? Yeah. You saw me do the whole window, you mean? Saw you put the mattresses in, make the bed, put the signs in, then fix the lights. Then you put the girl in the bed and fix her face up. Yeah, it's a nice job. Yeah. Say, you look bad, son. Yeah. Anything wrong? You sick? No, no, no, no. I'm just tired. I'll throw for the night. Yeah, I'll throw. Good night, officer. Good night, young fella, and don't worry about your girlfriend. I'll keep an eye on her every night. So Archie went home. As you were, I might have done. Because he'd been too busy setting his little post-mortem stage, the impact of his crime began to seep through only as he neared his rooming house. Maybe the girl in the doorway, he passed, started him thinking because she left. Are you kidding? Just a girl in her date. You can't blame Archie for hurrying. You would have thought it was Esther too. Archie hurried. He hurried to the rooming house. He raced up the steps. He had to get to his room, get in and close the door. Close the door. I said, I can't laugh at me here. I won't find me here. This is my room. Nerves.  I've got to act normal. Sure, just like nothing happened. But that couldn't have happened. She made me do it. Don't forget about it. Why, Archie's gold. No. No, no, you can't laugh. Now you're good. I don't believe in ghosts. It's just my mind, my imagination. You're too clever to believe in ghosts. I'm not a ghost, Archie. I'm in your mind. I'm part of you now. Of course, don't you?  Get out of here! You can't. Unless... Unless? Archie, unless you replace me with someone else. Yes. Yes! That might do it. Someone else. Another girl! See? That's how a murderer thinks. Oh, yes, yes. You do the same thing. Archie never thought he would murder her. Now he's ready to do it again. Get rid of his conscience to get rid of her voice. And Archie lit a cigarette. He poured himself some milk. Ignoring the laughter in his brain as he pushed through again. Hard and clutching. Like they were on my throat.  Archie threw himself in the bed and jammed the pillow against his ears. Fell into a dream worse than reality. Hello? Archie Gold? Yeah, yeah, this is Archie Gold. This is Mr. Gregg, Archie. I know this is your time to sleep, but it's important that you get down here right away. Is anything wrong, Mr. Gregg? I can't tell you over the phone. Come down here. Goodbye. All right, Mr. Gregg. After each shave and breast, Archie felt a little better. After all, if they'd discovered anything, Mr. Gregg wouldn't have called. He'd have sent the police. Feeling of confidence stayed with him until he stood across the street from Gregg's. He lost it then. It dropped with a sickening pain about his heart and a dry pinching about his lips.  He caught sight of a policeman's cap following Mr. Gregg's bald head into the store. Well... were you thinking of going window shopping tomorrow? Want to be popular? I have lots of people crowding about you on the sidewalk side of a plate-glass window. Want to be a mannequin? Look up Archie Gold. He's a mannequin do-er. Well, all I can say is I'm glad that murderer is about to be caught. Why, Mary, don't talk that way. He's really kind. He was really kind of Archie to put her on the mattress. She was so sleepy. In fact, she was dead to the world. Yes, the wonder-vealed sorry for his Archie. Why the poor fellow shivering? Why don't you make him a cup of Liptona tea? Lipton's is too good for him. And besides, he's probably too scared to taste the difference between Lipton's and ordinary tea's. Yes, folks, Lipton tea is different. In the language of tea experts, Lipton's has a brisk flavor. And when they use that word brisk, B-R-I-S-K, they mean that Lipton tea tastes tangy and spirited, really full-bodied. It's never flat or weak. So get acquainted with that brisk flavor. Or you just don't know how good tea can be till you know how good Lipton's is. Well, let's see how good Archie's alibi is. Remember Archie, the lonely little man who dresses Greg's department store windows at night? He just couldn't stand being spurned by Esther Newman any longer. She laughed at him when he asked for a date. And now Esther is a lifeless mannequin advertising the restful qualities of cozy kitten mattresses in the window display. And Archie enters the store to see what's in store for him. Uh, Mr. Greg, I'm... Archie Gold, come in, come in. Close the doors. Sit down. My boy, you know Mr. Newman and our bookkeeping department? Yes, I knew her, but I'd like a chance...  Before leaving on a week's vacation, Mr. Newman completed our annual report. Mr. Newman is on vacation? Yes, yes, yes. Which isn't important. A report shows we sold 16 cozy kitten mattresses in one year. Well, that's not many, is it, sir? It's terrible. We were stuck with 1,500 of them. Just a minute now. Jenkins? Jenkins? Yes, Mr. Greg? How many mattresses have you sold now? 802, sir. You hear that gold? Yes, sir. 802 mattresses in a couple of hours. And your window display did that.  Uh, Mr. Greg, I... No, no, no, no. I know just what you're going to say. Any man who has the imagination to put a woman dummy asleep in a window and such a dummy. So, so peaceful.  Starting today at $72.94. And the private office.  Ha! Stunger, huh? Everything I've always wanted. What's more? I've had pictures taken of that window with the crowds and the paper promised to run it in tonight's edition. With your name. Good? Yes, sir. I want you to know, sir, I appreciate it all. Oh, nonsense. Greg knows a bargain. Now go home to bed again or take tonight off. Oh, no, no. I have work to do. Ah, get more good ideas? Good, good. Uh, Mr. Greg. Yes, my boy. If, uh, if the mattresses are selling so well, we won't need the display. I can take it out. Oh, nonsense. Don't touch it. We'll run this sale for two weeks. I just ordered 1,500 more mattresses. Success and popularity was sweet to Archie's taste. But Archie knew a corpse, no matter how beautiful, cannot survive the sun beating through glass for long. And Archie knew that. It was a wretched rainy night. Greg's department store had long since closed its doors. The night belonged again to Archie. Now he had a nasty job to do. He drew the curtains across the big window. In case the officer was watching again. Esther was just a mannequin now, a mannequin of flesh and bones, but a mannequin. And Archie spoke to his mannequins. You've had a hard day, Esther, darling, haven't you? Well, it's all over now. You never did anything for me alive. Dead, you brought me success. Now I've got to settle down. Now I've got to send you away. You're stiff and cold, Esther. And you can't laugh now, can you? Esther couldn't laugh. And Archie opened the crates, which contained the mannequin he had originally planned to ship. With a few simple tools and lots of work, he made Esther the real Esther conformed to his original shipment. A torso, a pair of heads. No. That's the alley door. Somebody's there. See a cop, maybe. I've got to act natural. After all, she's well hidden. Could I come in? Please, I'm so wet and tired. A girl. Yes, yes, come in. Get out of that rain.  Come into the workshop. I've got a heater in there. Gosh, thanks. She was sent to me, someone to take Esther's place. Feel better now? Yeah, that's better. You're very kind. How did you happen to pick this door to knock at? Well, the alley seemed a good place to get out of the wind. It started to rain and I saw your light. And you broke. Yeah. The usual story, I came to town from Philly to get a job. Job was there, all right, but the boss wasn't on the level. Don't you have a home? Parents or a husband, I mean? Oh, that's a shame. Look, stay, stay right there now. I'll be right back. You're not leaving me, are you? No, no, I'm going to get a blanket to put across your shoulders. I'll be right back. Of course you'd be right back. Wasn't this just what he needed? Another mannequin to satisfy Esther's voice? It made sense. The second time, it's easier. It always is. Don't move me. I'll put it across your shoulders. All right.  How do you know that?  How does that prove I'm lonely? I like lonely people. Why? Because I'm terribly lonely myself. I got some coffee in the thermos here. I'll get you some. I like it here. I like to look at the mannequin, especially that handsome one there. What do you call him? Well, you must talk to him. I would. You're wonderful. You understand. Yeah, I do. I do talk to him. His name's Frank. Frank meet Mae, Mae. This is Frank. Hello, Frank. I'm sleepy, Frank. Oh, Mae. Why did you come tonight? Why couldn't you have come tonight? I came two nights ago. You're sleepy? I'm warm and sleepy. Look, I have three hours before my window has to be finished and I have an errand that'll take me about an hour. You climb into the bed in the window. People will see me in the window. No, no, the curtains are drawn. I'll wake you when I get back. All right. Looks like the kind of bed I could sleep on forever. Forever. Doesn't always work out the way you plan it, see? Archie didn't want to murder Esteeve, but he did. Archie wants to murder Mae, but he'd rather not. Well, Archie drew the sudden quilts over Mae. She smiled, closed her eyes with a murmur of thanks. Archie knew now he loved her that he must never listen to her speak again. While Archie carried the crates containing Esteeve's remains into the station wagon of the alley, a little man with a sad droopy face and a derby hat argued with the night captain of the local police station.  I stopped at Greg's window four times today. I know a corpse when I see one. Well, I saw that window, too. That's a dummy in that bed. I know a dummy when I see one. Well, I don't doubt that, Captain. You've had more experience with dummies than I have, but I've had more experience with corpses than you have. That's a dead girl in the bed. Now, what makes you so sure? I've been an undertaker for 40 years. My name is Hewzack. My establishment is down the block from Greg's store on 10th Street. OK, we'll check. Operator, get me Mr. Greg. Yeah, Greg's department store. Of course it is home. What else in this hour? Archie had a plan. Excitement gripped him. But that habit of yours was strong, and he talked to Esther as he piled her three coffins in the station wagon in the alley. Don't you worry, Esther. In a half hour you'll be at the bottom of the river. You shouldn't have laughed, Esther. Then... I'll come back to me. Sure. Archie had a plan, all right. But it didn't include the little old undertaker who knew a corpse when he saw one. Or an angry sleepy Mr. Greg. Or a confused Mr. Greg. We're right then coming to a stop and follow the store. This is an outrage. A preposterous, fantastic fox. Getting me down here in the middle of the night. Prove I have a corpse in my window. I know, Mr. Greg. I feel silly about it myself. But Mr. Hughes, I hear, seems so sure. The curtains are drawn in front of the window. We'll have to go inside. In a minute you're all going to look very silly. There. Does that look like a corpse? No. You're right. It's not a corpse. It isn't a dummy, either. She's alive and breathing. Something queer here. I'm going to look around outside. Archie! Archie, go! Archie! Archie! Archie didn't hear himself being paged. But at the entrance of the alley, he saw the police car in front of me. He heard the police captain shouting from the sidewalk. That was when Archie decided it was better to be lonely. They found out. That's the police. They still haven't found out. Hey! Hey, you! I'll take you away now. Got to. If they won't catch me, they won't. Not the lights, friend. I've got to go through. Faster. Faster. Why can't it go faster? The truck! Turn right! No one ever heard Archie's last words. They bubbled through his torn throat as he lay in a glass smashed window through which he'd crashed. No one. I'm... I'm... So lonely. Lay. So lonely. Lay. Well, Greg? Here's your Archie gold. Wet those crates will be interesting. Awful. Awful. Yeah. Quite a mess. No one was cruel enough to point out a gruesome bit of grisly humor. The lonely little man who'd spent so much time in display windows had created his final masterpiece. Archie had decorated his last window in Hussack's funeral parlour. The lesson we learned tonight's story is that murder doesn't pay. It's a losing business. Murders are always in the red. And it's strenuous work too. You're bound to find yourself a little stiff. Mr. Host, I did not like that story. Well, neither did I, Mary. Imagine the cozy kitten mattress company pulling a smart advertising stunt like that on Lipton's time and for free. Now, that's not what I mean at all. And if you're worried about Lipton's, let me assure you that Lipton's is the largest selling brand of tea in the whole world. That's the kind of popularity that really counts. And, folks, if you'll just once try Lipton's tea, I think you'll be convinced too. Well, I have to run along. Well, I have to run along now, folks. Got some shopping to do in Greg's department store. What? Oh, I know it's late, but you see, Archie and I shop at night to avoid the shrouds and... By the way, this month's Inner Sanctum Mystery Novel is Puzzle for Wantons by Patrick Quentin. Oh, and here's a special announcement. Next week's Inner Sanctum story, directed by Hyman Brown and brought to you by Lipton Tea and Lipton Soup. Next week's story is about a man whose dreams always come true. All he has to do is to dream that somebody's being murdered and... Enough to keep you awake, isn't it? Oh, until we meet again next Tuesday, you dream of me and I dream of you. Now, it's time to close the squeaking door, so... Good night. Pleasant dreams. Folks, here's a grand way to begin a meal. Serve Lipton's noodle soup. Lipton's takes no time to prepare, and yet it has a real fresh cooked chicken-y flavor. Yes, it tastes just like the chicken noodle soup you'd make right in your own kitchen. And Lipton's is economical, too. It costs less and makes lots more than canned soups. So folks, don't forget to serve Lipton's noodle soup. And don't forget to tune in next Tuesday night for another Inner Sanctum Mystery. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.


Hi, I'm Katie, a product technologist here at Lenovo and today I will show you the Thinkbook 16P and our Magic Bay modular accessories. So this laptop is a fantagulous workhorse of a laptop but it is fantastic for remote work and hybrid work situations because of these Magic Bay accessories. Right here you see the Magic Bay light with multiple different modes which you just tap on the side and it shows, but they attach the magnetic pogo pins which are housed right on the communications bar of this laptop. So I showed you the light, we also have this 4k pro webcam which again snaps right on to the back of it and now you've got this incredible 4k resolution camera which will also blend the picture that you get with the camera that's already housed inside the laptop and this blended picture will give you the absolute best image quality in whichever remote work, meeting applications. So 4k super high quality webcam and it's kind of like stable, it's not going to just fall off. No, it's very stable. So when you want to take it off, it goes off. Yeah. Alright and all the data and power goes through this. That's correct. So through magnets and pogo pins everything is very stable and it's powered. The third accessory that we have as well is this 4G LTE modem. So that also snaps right on to the back just as we saw before, but this one is also very special because of this USB-C port right here which you can use to power into your device another way through the USB-C cable so you can use another one of our modems and then you could also use it to power another device that you may have like a phone. And there could be more and more accessories potentially in the future. We're working with these through right now. We'll see where we go in the next generation. So it's called Magic Bay. Magic Bay. These are these great little modular things. So you have to buy them optionally or they just come included? It's gonna be an option with this specific ThinkPad. So the ThinkPad 16G. Jennifer, you have a fast NVIDIA. That's right. And fast Intel. As you can see it's a very powerful set of components inside of this. And it's got all the SD card slots and everything. It does. Yep. So as you see there has an SD card slot right here and then you have a few other ports as well on this side. And is there a price? Yes. We're expecting this to come out in May starting at around $1,350 US dollars.


You may be aware of media reports today about an incident involving volunteer members of one of our brigades. We've suspended four individuals following a serious incident of inappropriate behavior that has been brought to our attention. I'm not going to sugarcoat it, it's not acceptable and there is no place in our organization for bad behavior. We just simply won't put up with it. My message also applies to individuals who may find themselves on the sidelines while someone else engages in behavior that crosses a line. Sitting by and saying or doing nothing is frankly just as bad. There is no place in CFA for bullying, harassment or intimidation of any kind. This nonsense isn't funny and is just plain wrong. People, this stuff belongs in the past. Full stop. We all need to take a stand on these matters. I won't put up with it and I hope you won't put up with it. We can't tolerate this behavior in CFA anymore.


Over the past few years, we have touched upon many of the amazing and often extremely ancient sites which dot our Earth. Many of these spectacular achievements, indicating to the countless specialists, archaeologists, geologists, and others involved their true story of antiquity. On several occasions, we have been confronted with compelling explorative analysis, which is often resulted in the retrieval of artifacts which have supported the claim of them surviving past Cataclysm, often accompanied by an Ice Age. Our sharing of this data has regularly received a mixed reception. The Sphinx, for example, which shows clear evidence of surviving this past event, we saw that many were interested in this premise, yet not convinced of such claims. However, a gentleman known as Mario Bildraps has taken this theory and may have established it as a fact he has correlated the orientation of over 500 ancient pyramids and temples randomly spread around the world to what he claims is a 99% accuracy to the temperature changes during the last glaciation cycles. Most ancient structures, therefore, he has concluded, are hundreds of thousands of years old and not just a few thousand. Many of the pyramids and temples have been renovated over the millennia, new structures forming on top of older foundations, while the orientation of these foundations remain unchanged. Chichen Itze and Baalback are two good examples of this practice. He states that the proof is mathematically backed up from start to finish. He adds, the orientation of a building is purely mathematical because orientation is dimensionless or not materialistic. When we process the orientations of virtually all ancient buildings around the world, it reveals a profound discovery. About 57% of the 501 randomly spread ancient structures that were involved in this research accumulate massively in five clusters of together just 20 degrees or 22.2% along the intersection line. This line is also a purely mathematical entity that runs from our current north pole to our current south pole along a longitude of 47.1 degrees west. It appears a big chunk of his research has been directed towards developing a cardinal reference line, an imaginary line drawn upon the globe which could be used to match ancient structures to a past location of the cardinal points. Of course, if his mathematics can be peer reviewed and ultimately found to be correct, he could truly be on to something. His research will not only push back the theories involving the chronological development of man, but also prove beyond doubt pre-Columbian voyage up to a half a million years ago, among many other startling realities. Additionally, his claims would be indispensable proof that the Earth's crust has moved significantly over the last 400,000 years without geology even noticing. They measured it, but didn't interpret it as a movement of the crust. They interpreted it as glaciation cycles. Logical, when you believe the crust is fixed, but also logically indisputable proof there were pyramid builders once around who pointed their structures to a very ancient pole, he says. Interestingly, he also added that you might possibly expect that if we do the same kind of research to the orientation of contemporary buildings, we would, for some odd reason, find a collective orientation that differs from north, likewise as the ancient buildings, but that doesn't appear to be the case. The collective orientation of contemporary buildings points almost exactly at our current geographic pole. You might say that the collective unconscious orients itself to the geographical pole, or as many people would say, to the sun. The more data you gather, whether it's in a region, one country, one continent, or the whole world, the more obvious it becomes that contemporary buildings add up to the geographic pole. There is no contemporary culture defined that has a preference for a specific orientation other than a cardinal orientation. It is undoubtedly interesting research, which we implore you to peruse further. We will keep you posted on future developments regarding Mario's work. The Oklahoma Newspaper, The Oklahoma, would publish a story on June 28, 1969 titled It's a Cracked Puzzle. Subsequently pulled from their archives, some astute researchers, however, have managed to track down this amazing article, detailing an impossible discovery. It pertains to the excavation of an ancient floor, a tiled area which covered a truly vast distance, as if it was once the highly finished floor of an enormous structure. What is astonishing regarding this floor, however, is the date that countless specialists have concluded upon. The age of these tiles is simply baffling. According to the modern dating techniques used, this floor was laid well over 200,000 years ago, using a tiling mortar containing currently unknown elements. Delbert Smith, president of the Oklahoma Seismograph Company, and past president of the Oklahoma City Geophysical Society, accompanied Derwood Pate, an independent petroleum geologist in an exploration of the site. They finished their studies by stating that they were both very satisfied that it is not a natural earth formation, and that it is indeed man-made. Smith and Pate even took core samples to make a microscopic investigation of the material makeup. The discovery of two holes through the rock strata heightened interests, and when measurements revealed that two holes to be exactly 16.5 feet apart, or precisely one rod, they were convinced it was a deliberate, artificial placement. The stone tiles were found to have been made from Permian limestone, laced with quartz grains. Geologists who focused their attention on the unusual flooring were all at a loss to explain the origin of the formation. John M. Ware, an Oklahoma City geologist, said, It simply cannot be explained within the field of geology. We need an archaeologist to give a final opinion. However, its age and origin may remain a mystery unless an archaeologist can be persuaded to take on the project soon. Just 20 days after these astonishing finds and subsequent realizations, construction workers moved in on the area, quickly demolishing the enormously ancient and vastly important floor, building a foodstuffs warehouse in its place. Another intriguing point about the rock formation was that it contained marine deposits, indicating that it had once experienced submersion during an ocean flood. Pate said that the formation, 100 feet by 60 feet in area, was rapidly becoming a tourist attraction. People began flocking there and taking pieces of the rock away, he said. Just who built this ancient floor? Why did they build it? And was it really over 200,000 years old? Judging by the way this discovery was buried, it is certainly a possibility. The following amazing story was published by a David Campbell on a site known as View Zone. It was a report regarding an incredible find within Oklahoma, subsequently chased up by David and his wife on location. Although the story gained very little media attention, the details along with the photographs of the event we have found extremely interesting, especially when we took into account our previous research regarding this strange ancient anomaly known as Waffle Rock, a half-buried suspected fragment of a once larger object of possible alien origins, which has remained half-buried, resting where it struck the earth all those years prior. Now submerged underwater as the result of a controversial reservoir project which swallowed the stone and the town which had built up around it. You'd recall the event with his wife on the site. They had just returned from a weekly 600-mile distribution route to find a somewhat urgent message from a reader in Colbert, Oklahoma. The caller gave some extremely vague instructions on getting to the place. No names and no callback details. Intrigued by the story, they figured the worst that could happen was that they would have a nice Sunday in the mountains. After getting to the vague location given and after several hours of searching the woods, they eventually came across an extremely peculiar looking, possibly Cyclopean wall. Their initial investigations baffled them. They had never seen ancient stones structured in such a way. They highly suspected that it was of artificial origin due to the small apparent stones tightly interlocking which made up its structure. It wasn't until they climbed a top that they must have realized the true scale of their discovery. From the other side, the stones appear to be a highly complex arrangement of interlocking different mineral or metallic compounds, often displaying a honeycomb structure, the layers of which a result of highly accurate cast layers stacked together to make interlocking blocks of iron-like stone. They recalled on the site, quote, what I saw there began to seep into my brain like ice water. Jumbled about in haphazard fashion were acres of squared, dressed, and notched stones.  Were these strange fragments, possibly once a single and very large object? They clearly share similarities with waffle rock, which is located in West Virginia. Are both these anomalous items connected? Were they once part of a very old and now semi-fossilized alien craft? What David has discovered may be another piece of the puzzle regarding the waffle rock mystery. Often cases of strange rocks made up of strange metals are attributed to furnace activity. But I hope more investigation into this clearly huge and perplexing site is undertaken. How could this strange object possibly have come to be resting, broken into fragments within an Oklahoma forest? Another strange object made from a similar anomalous mineral metallic-like material is the ancient Baltic Sea anomaly. Are both of these strange artifacts ancient spaceships? More details regarding David and Sue's curious discovery is clearly needed. We will keep you posted.
