called on Betty Royal a few times and to like that you like that very much and now you're calling on her again for no reason at all except that you like that very much but you find her breathless with excitement I found something with the chambers I think it could be important Pete Pete not Mr. Chambers Pete remember a little black book it belongs to well it belonged to Sandra is she must have put it into my bag by mistake and that bag's been in my locker at rehearsal hall let's see it a little black book with a lot of names and not one that means anything to you but they may mean a lot to Parker so you latch on to the lovely Betty Royal who's as lovely and his regos are named and off you go a chattering to some downtown to police headquarters downtown to detect the lieutenant Parker

sanders this is the little black book lieutenant yes fattling is God's given right to a beautiful girl well thank you Peter by the way let me introduce Abner read I don't think you two have ever met Abner read Peter chambers miss Betty Royal how do you do I don't know you well lieutenant as we were saying wait a minute what about what did you say your name was I just told you I'm asking him my fellow keep talking what did you say your name was my name as the lieutenant told you Abner read Abner read of course you jump him right away you don't wait he's big and you want the first punch and you get the first punch in but he takes a standing up and let's do a few of his own all right stop it break it up what the devil's going on hey you slip by a couple of his lefts and then he's wide open and you come up with one off the floor and he catches a clean on a button and now he's down and out and he'll stay out until someone brings him to crazy man that's a salt and battery you're going to do time fella well you really flipped your wig this time yeah let me help stay away from him now look Peter you and I lieutenant we've thrown a lot of questions around there's a couple of answers coming up right now like what like why I was shot at at the graveyard and shot up in my apartment like why Sandra Mantell was killed like why she called me in the first place like why that gun has fingerprints easy easy one at a time let's take the last one first fingerprints on a gun yeah a guy dropping it when he collides with a dame panicking running out leaving it there that sound professional not especially while it rules out a pro what is the rule in an amateur so so let's do it right side up now now here's a guy Abner read he married a large hunk of dough but he can't reach too much of it because she's frugal so so what the suggestion of a friend of his miss Sandra Mantell and you'll find I'm sure with a good deal of digging that those two at a close sub-browser association well never mind what I'll find out let's get this over with on her suggestion they figured out a beauty the guy kidnapped himself remember Mrs. Reed talked in the alleged ransom discussions to nobody but him on the phone yes yeah he knew the old dame she'd pay and play ball which she did why why were you attacked there in the cemetery because Reed didn't want any remnants hanging around but Pete how did you tell them so quick he never bothered to disguise his voice in the graveyard he figured to leave me there for dead and this was the first time I've heard it since so he punches bullets at you in your apartment then that time he almost made it and then then when when he wouldn't divide with Sandra everybody's everybody's a detective although you're a hundred percent right but he lasts she called me knew where to call me because she was in it from the very beginning he caught her in the act and finished her off and if you will kindly use the fingers of that comatose gentleman for the purpose of making fingerprint impressions I don't have a doubt in a world what you'll find and so one hour later Abner Reed is booked for murder and extortion and you're strolling in the joyful sunshine with Betty Royal cleaning of your arm tightly and proudly and what prettier termination can there be to so unfortunate a circumstance as murder and there you've

10 Sales Books Every Entrepreneur Should Read Alejandro Cremandes, a Spanish author and entrepreneur once said, The best entrepreneurs are not the best visionaries. The greatest entrepreneurs are incredible salespeople. They know how to tell an amazing story that will convince talent and investors to join in on the journey. Making money as an entrepreneur is not about how talented you are or how extraordinary your product or service is. It's a lot about marketing and making sales. Here's the thing, no matter how valuable your work is, if no one is aware of the existence or the value of your product, then it is all a waste because you wouldn't make sales. And when you don't make enough sales to fund your business and keep it running, it is only a matter of time before you get frustrated and give up eventually. Brian Tracy, a Canadian-American motivational speaker and self-development author, said an I quote, Keep your sales pipeline full by prospecting continuously. Always have more people to see than you have time to see them. The goal of every business person is to satisfy their customers by continuously producing them with valuable content, products, and most importantly, to make enough money while at it. So here's the thing, to be a successful entrepreneur, you have to offer a valuable product or service. Know how to convince people about the value of your product so that you can sell to as many as possible. In this video, I'll share with you 10 sales books every entrepreneur should read.

Today's topic is NFC for surfacing and maintenance. NFC can be used in factory and warehouse to pre-configure products on things like serial number, language or any set of data. Moreover, once the products are installed in the field, at home for instance, end users can still benefit from the NFC technology for both maintenance and monitoring. We can benefit from the embedded NFC dynamic tags which can simplify maintenance and diagnostic operations in the field. Traditionally, these operations have to be done with a wired interface, making the whole process complex and time consuming. Now the NFC dynamic tags can make the whole process smooth and contactless. The service personnel can read the error code and update firmware even with devices powered off, and know other wireless connectivity like Bluetooth or Wi-Fi is needed. Furthermore, end users could easily use their Android phones or iPhone with iOS 14 and above to access product pages, warranty information and download user apps to configure devices, especially those without a screen or touchpad. All of these use cases could be supported by ST25DV. Let's see how. Let me show you a handy application of NFC technology for embedded electronics. With the help of an NFC dynamic tag, you could access any electronic device and you could also interact with it easily with your NFC-enabled smartphone. For this demo, we have taken a ST25DV discovery board and placed it inside the washing machine front panel to simulate the real-life product. The machine has been running fine for a number of months. Let's imagine that suddenly it breaks down and I want to fix it quickly, but there is no technician available right now. Also, sending technicians hard into the field comes at a cost for customer health centers. So what if I could easily download the important information with my smartphone, such as the controller board number or the exact error code. Upon receiving this data, the support center could tell me how to fix the problem or could decide to send a technician. So with the simple remote assistance, we have seen that you can unlock the machine with your smartphone, which turns into a useful troubleshooting tool. I could even update the firmware on the board running on my machine with the NFC. Now let's talk about another use case of NFC that could be used for auditing devices in the field, for example. Let's take an automated laundry owner who owns multiple equipment and would like to monitor the daily usage of his machines. So with the ST25DV fast transfer mode, the mailbox mechanism will come into play and allow communication between the STM32 and your phone through the dynamic tag. This memory buffer can send up to 256 bytes of commands. We have seen the data now uploaded and the requesting information appears on the phone screen. Password protection is also possible to ensure that only the right people have access to the information. So to sum it up, we have seen that with RFID NFC technology, you can add two advantages to your product. The first one is that the factory when boards are ready to be shipped and you can still program them. And the second advantage is that you continue to benefit from your NFC circuit once the product is already in the field and you rely on the NFC technology that is already in your phone. To wrap up, RFID technology can benefit the whole product life cycle by making manufacturing process and warehouse operations more efficient and also improving servicing, maintenance and end user experience. Last but not least, there are several kits available to get you started including a discovery kit for evaluation, a nuclear board for development with STM32 and an antenna reference design. For more information, please check out our website and other resources available. That's it for today. Thank you for your time.

I appreciate y'all but without further ado We got some great questions, but we got an even better guest to answer those questions Let me let him introduce himself and keep it clean very very very special guests on this episode of questions from subscribers We got my guy Ken who a lot of you I'm sure already familiar with mr. Film study Ravens I appreciate you coming on a show today Ken. Go ahead and introduce yourself. Let him know where they can find you exactly what you do Hey, thanks for having me on Justin. So first of all, I'm at film study Ravens on Twitter if you want to follow me there or just check in and The website is film study Baltimore calm and we have a weekly Defense article comes out on Tuesday offense article comes out on Wednesday Know your foe the following day by the numbers the day after that and this year We're doing 25 years Ravens podcast on the other weekend days There's new content every day and hope you have a chance to check it out Perfect. Perfect. Now. What made you get started with creating content about the Ravens? Yeah, so this was about 2005 2006 I started scoring the games and and I looked at it and I wanted to do something different than anybody was doing so I looked at Defense there's very little on defense at the time So, you know, you didn't even really have tackles as an official stat much before then Sacks were available as an official stat from the 80s But frankly offensive linemen and the defense with a big dearth of information And so I said I'd like to do something that's different from what everybody else is doing So I charted who was on the field every defensive play and I started doing that in 06 and I've since gone back to 1996 every play in Ravens history charted for that and then I have You know offensive line scoring that I've been doing now for 15 years as well, so that's Those are the two areas where I chose to look at Okay, cool. And again, we got some great questions like we always do from team keeping clean So without further ado, let's go ahead and jump into it The first question on this episode came from my guy Rainmaker He said I engrave and hope all as well with you and yours My question today is a look into the future as well as Anthony Averett is playing Do you think that will have a direct effect on the Ravens bringing back Marcus Peters? I like the Humphrey Peters duo But do you think EDC would try to save money by letting Peters go and investing that money elsewhere? We know what EDC stands for and just wanted to know what you think about it Keep up the great work and stay safe And that's a really good question to start us off because in Marcus Peters absence Anthony Averett. He's been playing really well and I've been it's been a very Pleasant surprise because with Anthony Averett the way that I felt about him is that he was so close to being a good cornerback The only thing that I felt was his sort of deficiency or whatnot was that he didn't turn his head around and make plays on the ball That was the only thing I felt like he he struggled with but now he's been doing that like he's been having games where You don't really hear his name called and that's a good thing So I love that Anthony Averett has been playing well now the impact on Marcus Peters I think that I actually think that Anthony Averett Could end up playing himself out of the Ravens and his price going up and him end up cashing in in free agency Since this is the last year his contract. How you feel about it, Ken? Yeah, it's I mean that's a good thing for Anthony Averett. It's also actually a good thing for the Ravens But I think it's likely Marcus Peters has played his last game as a Raven just looking at the cap structure The Ravens have to transfer money from defense to offense That's a very basic need and so they need a lot of money to pay Lamar and to do that They have three major sources. They have the departure of Campbell the departure of Williams And unfortunately probably the departure of Peters as well because it's one of the few ways They can save a lot of cap next year a taevan young is a fourth So, you know, I've gone in this season. I said the Ravens are shorted corner You know, they've got they've got a bunch of guys who are potentially in their last year as Ravens And and Peters and Averett were two but young is another and then also Jimmy Smith because you know We keep hoping that he'll be back every year, but it's not a give-man in my mind. So it's a great question rainmaker And I think More than likely the two are not necessarily linked and I would agree with with Justin that that it's it's probably a pretty Good chance that Averett will price himself out of Baltimore if he continues to play at this level for us the year The next question came from my guy Manuel. He said, what's up in Graven shout out from Mexico? I was looking at the Broncos game again and have teamkeeper clean notice that our offensive line protection is getting better Especially in the passing game since Lamar almost the whole game had a clean pocket and was throwing dimes Speaking of dimes I can cry with happiness that we finally have a passing game that we also desperately Needed but back to the question. Do you think the offensive line with how it's been managing so far gives us the best chance to go all The way stay safe and let's hope next year. We can have a teamkeeper clean event again. Yes, that is the goal So Ken, how do you feel about the offensive line? How they've been thus far and how it shows that they can be in the future this season, right? I mean the Ravens right now their big weakness on offense is an offensive tackle and they don't have a player on either side I think that they completely trust to leave on an island so they're having to do a lot of things schematically to Play around that so they have to they've used extra inline blockers now I know this is kind of technical, but I'm still going to do it When you add up the number of six offensive linemen the full backs and the tight ends take their wholesome Take all their snaps comes out to 1.90 per play that's that's a lot and They're using a high number of set and chip blockers which means they're sacrificing eligible receivers to cover for their tackles So for example in this last game, they had 40 passing plays and they used 26 set blockers and 10 chip blocks And so it's it's effectively sacrificing 36 of the routes you could run during a game of 200 And saying we're going to use those as blockers instead and Denver blitz very heavily in the game So they really had to do things like that But it's it's a weakness that is going to be very difficult for the Ravens to overcome And they need to heavily scheme to deal with the weakness of tackle And you know my honest opinion is the offensive line is probably not good enough right now for the Ravens to go all the way And yeah, that there seemed to be there Achilles here last season to that that offensive line Um because throughout the entire season last year even from the first game the very first game that offensive line They were getting blown up Um against the Browns because I remember there was one place specifically where Patrick Ricard It was on the goal line Patrick Ricard they they Lamar handed it off to him for a full back sneak or full back dive And he got whacked in the backfield fumble the ball turn over And then of course in the bills game With Lamar getting the hit that knocked him out of the game and just it ended up being a mess Um, so they they tried to get by as much as they could but in the playoffs It just it all got exposed even more Um, so with offensive line one of the I think one of the biggest questions for the future Is uh, is Ronnie Stanley? Yeah, um and and just his health Status, I know I did see something with with Jeff's rebate. He didn't say it But because somebody asked is the is his injury possibly career-threatening Um, and Jeff's rebate said he heard some things here and there, but he didn't want to get into any speculation anything like that Um, but we certainly hope that that wouldn't be the case. Um First and foremost, Ronnie Stanley as a person and as a player But then definitely for the uh, the organization and the team Because that would be a tremendous blow. I mean, it's already been a big blow with him having him out but if it's possibly career-threatening, we just don't even really want to think about it, but The the health of the offensive line and just their consistency because I just really felt I felt like in the The Raiders game. I felt like that was just a really bad game for them Like start to finish, but then as in the chief's game. I was thinking, okay Frank Clark, Chris Jones. Oh boy. Here we go. This is gonna be a long game, but they did really good And then in the Lions game, they got back to being iffy again, and then of course in the Broncos game I feel like they were iffy again. So it's just I feel like there's been like a lack of consistency with the offensive line um and it's just Things have got improved, but I'm just I'm not sure How they can improve them uh, because you're limited in cap space You're limited on guys that are coming back. Of course, Tyree Phillips. He's due back sometime this season And Ronnie Stanley, hopefully he'll come back sometime this season. Joanne James. I don't think he's gonna play this year at all But we'll see but yeah, I'm not expecting it. So It's just gonna be very interesting to see how the ravens sort of get by uh, how they try to uh mask The offensive lines uh deficiencies Yeah, so they've got four offensive tackles right now on the practice squad and right now They only have one tackle on the active 53. Andre Smith presumably would be elevated from the practice squad again But he's one of four there So they have to manage that and basically bring up two practice squad players every week It's such a bad position to be in. I mean, I'm assuming Villanueva is not going to be able to go Which it you know kind of seems like from the nature of the injury that that he might not be able to um You know It when when you was Andre Villanueva and he hasn't played well and that's still a huge loss for your team That's a really bad place to be and it's interesting I think also Justin that that last year the real weakness was on the interior offensive line I mean that they their tackles were pretty good But but this well not great on the right side, but but pretty good on you know We certainly had Ronnie Stanley on the left side But this year that the often the interior offensive line has been pretty good And the and the outside has been where the problems have been So this one this next question came from my guy erin and it's sort of looking in hindsight But still want to talk about it anyway. He said uh to lofa engraving. That's how you say hi in Samoa What's up, erin? He said this has been a while since I've been on here. I hope you and the family are good Uh, thank you for spreading positivity and good vibes much love to the rest of team keeping clean family So do you think we the ravens make a move? Well, since his past tense should have made a move for linebacker Jaylen Smith Or do you think we are good with the linebackers we have now? Yes, I remember when you were making videos in the car came a long way and keep up the good work Much love and respect appreciate that erin um with jaylen smith I um, I'm not familiar with his game personally, but what I did Uh, I looked up a lot of things uh to see why did he get cut because the timing of it Just didn't make any sense to me. But what I heard about him was that he He was the best tackler his sideline his sideline his sideline speed was pretty bad. Um, he was getting blown up on blocks and he he wasn't um Oh, and he was blowing coverages too So I was thinking I know a lot of ravens fans They were interested in jaylen smith and they were thinking it could be possibly one of those things Well, oh we can we can change him we we can maybe with the right coach and he could change it as possible They could but it was just never anything that I was like, uh, yeah, let's go get jaylen smith Um, but I feel like with with patrick queen. No, he's been struggling missing some tackles here and there. Um, so I just felt like it He wouldn't have really done much uh for the ravens, especially with a team with super limited cap space Um, but I just uh, it was it was a no from me uh on jaylen smith Did did it ever cross your mind that the ravens could possibly make a move for jaylen smith jim? Yeah, it did. I mean the ravens a very limited cap space. Uh, only enough right now for about three Uh Vet men are a little bit lower contracts for the rest of the years. They got to be careful They're managing their cap on a week to week basis by keeping 50 or 51 players, uh on the Uh active roster and having the rest be on the practice squad where they actually make less So they're not protecting these players. They're just you know, so they're really I mean This is they are down to their last few dollars in their pocket. They're really having to manage on a on a On a tight tight budget. So anyway jaylen smith. I don't know what he signed for with the packers But I know he signed today. Um, so the point is at at this point moot I liked him as both a tackler and a coverage guy actually so I thought he would have been a guy who would help the ravens and Frankly, he might be a You know, there might be other guys out there that dakasta likes as much But I think the josh binds elevation before it had to happen. I mean, they still had two Practice squad elevations of binds that they could use Um, that's a very strong indication for a cash strapped team cap strap team that uh, that Patrick queen's days may be numbered that that you know, he's really got to be looking over his shoulder at Uh, is my play sufficient enough because because they're elevating josh binds Uh, why would they do that when they don't have the money to spend? Hmm. Yeah, and I didn't um I was wondering why but you made it make a lot of sense. I was wondering why uh But I think throughout this entire season so far. Yeah, they have not been at 53 men on the roster And they've had these uh these empty spots and I just figured like okay Yes, due to these different guys being injured and whatnot since they have obviously a lot of injuries, but Yeah, that that makes it make a whole lot more sense Yeah, it's kind of interesting coming into the the regular season We're doing all these roster breakdowns and and the ravens had a lot of flexibility in terms of cutting veterans To make space for a lot of this young talent and some of the injured guys They need to sneak onto the roster and then the next day put them onto ir So they did a lot of that and so they have their total players available to them between the roster and ir Is still pretty good But the problem is we don't know when some of these ir players are going to be back and uh, you know They need roster spots for them when they do so they're they're keeping some of that open and uh, and it's it just It's a strange twist of fate. What's happened to the ravens from terms of injuries Very very difficult to put a total cost on it But if you had to it might have cost them close to 10 million of caps so far Just with the injuries injuries they've had the next question came from my guy Isaac he said a engraving hope that you and the family are doing well for my question It has to do with the possible mid-season trade for the ravens Our eric the cossa has been aggressive in the past few years around mid-season When he went after defensive editions like marcus peters and yinikin got quick I think we all know which one of those trades turned out to be the best But my question is if we're keeping up the trend this year What position do you see eric the cossa improving upon via trade whether it be offense or defense much love to you and yours appreciate it With limited cap space If they even do go the route of a trade Because it we're with limited cap space. Um, I feel like if they did make a move for somebody it would be And it just depends on so much, but I feel like it would be an offensive lineman that's still on his rookie deal but Wow, it's it's really hard to say What do you think it could be if you even think that they could make an in-season trade for anything They they have some tools in the box that would allow them to do it And and I kind of explain what would have to happen if they want an offensive tackle And and I think that'd be the biggest need at this point They could go out and get one the other team would have to accelerate all of the current salary into bonus and eat it themselves immediately And then they already if there's any additional years on the contract any additional prorated bonus that might be on a player of any Tenure they'd have to eat So what they're going to basically have to do is compensate that team that the tradesmen offensive tackle with additional draft capital For them to say yeah, that's a good deal. Then I'll do that So it might end up they end up trading a pretty high pick for a tackle who's stripped down to a A minimum salary that they can accept this year So if you know It wouldn't be out of mind in in my opinion if the ravens think they're good enough if the record is good That they go out at the end of this month and get a get an offensive tackle and trade Certainly a third round pick would be a possibility I think a second round pick would be a possibility if they if they really had to strip down the value on that contract Now just sort of a bonus question for you Do you have any names in mind who you could think of that they could possibly or that you would possibly see them going after? Uh, no, I don't but you know what the the way to figure I always figure this out is go to the teams who are playing Under 500 currently and look at their roster for for who their tackles are where they are 10 year wise How soon they're going to be lost to free agency and and that give you an idea Whatever player that they get At offensive tackle your thing is your question is going to be wait a minute They trade a third for yannick and gockway and they have to trade something more for this guy You know, it's that's what your reaction is going to be to this trade It's not going to be someone who jumps off the page at you It's going to be a league average offensive tackle that you know, they have to trade a decent draft pick for
