That is the Hindu news analysis for the date 8th of April 2022. Displayed here are the articles we will be discussing today. Now let us start the discussion. Take a look at this text and context article. As the title itself hints, this news article talks about manual scavenging. Taking this as an opportunity, let us quickly go through what is manual scavenging, some reasons why this practice is still prevalent in India and we shall also see some of the government initiatives to prevent this practice. Before getting into the discussion, the syllabus relevant to this article is highlighted here for your reference. Please go through it. Now let us get into the discussion. Firstly what is manual scavenging? Manual scavenging refers to the practice of manually cleaning, carrying, disposing or handling human excreta in any manner from tray lettering and sewers. Here manually means by hand rather than automatically or electronically. It often involves the most basic of tools such as buckets, brooms and baskets. To understand the severity of this practice, we must know a little bit of history about it. We will see about them. See, the practice of manual scavenging in India goes long back in history. Its roots lie deep within the caste based occupation system in India. Mughal women under Furudha had enclosed toilets that needed to be scavenged. Under British India also, when the first municipalities were introduced, manual scavengers were employed to collect waste from public toilets. Within a century, these toilets were equipped with fresh system and by that time most homes had outhouses or tray letterings that required human scavengers. Whom do you think they used as escape code to perform all these work? See, the so called lower caste were expected to perform this job. It is Dalits where and continued to be employed as scavengers. Even within the Dalit community, it is the lowest among the subcasts who undertake manual scavenging work. They are known as Bangais in Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat, Pakhis in Andhra Pradesh, Balmikis in Haryana and Sikaliyas in Tamil Nadu. The term Bangi literally means broken identity and the word itself is considered derogatory. See, it is even difficult for us to imagine this scenario right? So, such inhumane treatment is meted out to the manual scavengers. In addition to this, our wretched society considers manual scavengers as unclean and untouchable. Due to such backward thinking of the society, the manual scavengers face social exclusion and deprivation of the society. Due to this, finding an alternative vocation is almost impossible for them. There are three more reasons that prevent the marginalised people to look for alternative employment. Firstly, it is due to the fact that power and caste hierarchy are intertwined in a complex whip. For example, most scavengers have inherited the work of the Dalit community. Secondly, this economic and social deprivation for generations has given them little opportunity to be trained for something else. Thirdly, those who dared to question the situation were met with social marginalisation, exclusion from village resources, and in rare but not uncommon cases, they were subjected to physical trash, which is a very rare case. See, this is really a sad thing to admit that manual scavenging still prevails among the poorest and the most disadvantaged communities in India. Now, that doesn't mean that Indian government did not take any step to prohibit the practice. The employment of manual scavengers and construction of Drey Letrin's Prohibition Act 1993 formally prohibited the use of manual scavengers. Additionally, the National Commission for Safai Karma Charis Act 1993 was a welfare legislation passed to monitor implementation of schemes for sanitation workers and also address their grievances. However, it was only in 2013 that the practice of manual scavenging was outlawed. The practice was outlawed by the National Commission for the Development of Education, the practice of manual scavenging was outlawed. The practice was outlawed when both the Houses of the Parliament unanimously passed the Prohibition of Employment as Manual Scavengers and their Rehabilitation Act 2013. Now, let us see some important features of this act. See, this act, that is the Prohibition of Employment as Manual Scavengers and their Rehabilitation Act 2013, was an umbrella legislation that aimed to look at the issue holistically. The 2013 act prohibits the employment of manual scavengers, construction of Drey Letrin's and manual cleaning of septic tanks and severs without protective equipments. It became the first legislation that identified the links between scavenging as a profession and the societal caste hierarchy. And it became the first act that places the responsibility on the owners to demolish Drey Letrin's and build proper toilets. See, the act overrates all previous state laws on manual scavenging. There is a strong vigilance mechanism in place and offenses under this act are non-bailable. It is also the first legislature to have some concrete notion on Rehabilitation of Manual Scavengers. In addition to this, there are several constitutional provisions that can be invoked to abolish this inhumane practice of manual scavenging. They are Article 14, that is right to equality. Article 17, that is abolition of untouchability. Article 21, that is protection of life and personal liberty. Article 42, that deals with just and humane conditions of work. And finally, Article 46, that deals with promotion of educational and economic interest of scheduled caste, scheduled traips and weaker section of the society. These articles further strengthen the constitutional right of a person to seek justice when they are mistreated. See, despite so many legislation, this practice continues unabated for the most part. The so-called lower caste still face difficulty. Now, why is this practice still prevalent in India? As we all know, the first reason is the social cost. As I already said, the practice is driven by caste, class and income debates. Even though in 1993, India banned the employment of people as manual scavengers under the employment of manual scavengers and construction of dry lettering prohibition act in 1993, but still the stigma and the discrimination associated with it still lingers. Even if they want to leave their professions, their untouchability and uncleanliness tag that the Fretcher society has associated with this profession resulted in social stigma which makes impossible for them to find alternative jobs. This is the first reason why the practice is still prevalent in India. Secondly, manual scavenging exists mainly due to the continued presence of unsanitary letterings where human waste has to be cleaned physically rather than by a machine or sewage system. The majority of such unsanitary letterings are dry letterings that does not use water. The third important reason is the continued reluctance on the part of the state government to admit that the practice of manual scavenging is still practiced under their watch. Apart from this, poor enforcement of existing laws is also a reason for the continued existence of this medieval age practice. See, though the construction of dry letterings has drastically reduced, the number of deaths in manholes, sewers and septic tanks continue to remain high. And this is the reason why the present government has plans to amend the prohibition of employment as manual scavengers and the Rehabilitation Act 2013 to completely mechanize the cleaning of sewers and manholes and build new sewers. This is exactly what the news article talks about here. But according to the author, neither the past nor the present amendments addresses the issue of labor safety. This moves us forward to a question that is way forward. So, what actually can be or should be done to abolish this practice? Firstly, there should be proper identification of the workers. States need to accurately enumerate the workers engaged in cleaning toxic sludge. Secondly, schemes like the Swachbara Thabiyan should make expansion of sewer networks as a top priority. It should come up with a scheme for scientific maintenance that will end the manual cleaning of septic tanks. Thirdly, there is a need for social sensitization. See, to address the social sanction behind manual scavenging, it is required first to acknowledge and then understand how and why manual scavenging continues to be embedded in the cash system. This has to be done. Only by making the society sensitized, we can make a holistic change. Fourthly, there is a need for a stringent law. If a law creates a statutory obligation to provide sanitation services on the part of the state's agency, it will create a situation in which rights of these workers will not hang in the air. Last but not the least, the laws should be enforced vigorously to eliminate manual scavenging in its entirety. Even if amendments are made, there should be provisions for better healthcare facilities, insurance cover, pension plans and regulations on preventive and social education for the manual scavengers. Apart from this, there should be trials and testing of protective gears provided to the sanitary workers. That's all regarding this discussion. Before concluding this discussion, let us do a quick recap. See, in this discussion, we saw what is manual scavenging. Then we saw how the society treats manual scavengers. Then we saw why it is difficult for the manual scavengers to leave this profession. Then we saw some measures taken by the government to prevent the practice of manual scavenging. In that, we saw about the employment of manual scavengers and construction of Drey Letterin's Prohibition Act 1993, the National Commission for Suffice Karma Cherries Act 1993, and the prohibition of employment as manual scavengers and their Rehabitation Act 2013. After that, we saw some features of the 2013 Act. Some important features of this 2013 Act are, this Act prohibits the employment of manual scavengers, construction of Drey Letterin's and the manual cleaning of septic tanks and severs without protective gears. And it became the first Act that places the responsibility on the owners to demolish Drey Letterin's and build proper toilets. And it is also the first legislation to have some concrete notion on rehabilitation of manual scavengers. Then we saw some constitutional provisions that can be invoked to stop this practice. The articles are Article 14, Article 17, Article 21, Article 42, and Article 46. See, these articles of the Constitution may be invoked to stop this practice. Then we saw why manual scavenging is still prevalent in the society. Some reasons are social stigma, presence of unsanitary Letterin's, government apathy, and poor enforcement of law. Finally, we saw some suggestions to stop this practice. Some suggestions are proper identification of sanitary workers, expansion of sewer network, social sensitization, strict implementation of laws, and finally, provision of better health care facilities, insurance cover, and pension plans for manual scavengers. So that's all regarding this discussion. With this, let us conclude this discussion and take up the next news article. Look at this editorial article. This editorial talks about India's neutrality in the Russia-Ukraine war. India is neither a clean state of a great power nor a member of any alliance system. Hence, India retained the right to take policies based on pragmatic realism and its core national interest. See, India's neutral position does not mean that India supports the war. But the United States and few western countries are not liking India's neutral stand on this Russia-Ukraine issue. So in this context, let us discuss about the historical evidences of India's neutrality. Then the three reasons why the United States is selectively targeting India for its neutrality. Then we will discuss why neutrality is the best available options for India. And finally, let us discuss how the NATO failed Ukraine. Okay? Before getting into the discussion, the syllabus regarding this discussion is highlighted here for a few seconds. You can go through it. Now, let us start our discussion. First of all, what is meant by neutrality? See, neutrality is a state of not supporting either side in an argument or war. Okay? So, now talking about India's neutrality, there are historical evidences to prove it. Let us see few of them. Firstly, take the Soviet intervention in Hungary. It happened in the year 1956, when the Soviet Union invaded Hungary to stop the Hungarian revolution. At this time, the Prime Minister of India was Jawaharlal Nehru. See, India remained neutral, saying that India disliked the happenings but will not condemn it. This was how India was guided to approach any conflicts, mainly those involving its partners. Not only this, even in the Soviet interventions in Czechoslovakia in 1968 or Soviet intervention in Afghanistan in 1979 or in the American invasion of Iraq in 2003, India more or less followed this line of neutrality. That is, India followed the neutrality principle in all these instances. See, leave the past. Even when you take the current situation, that is, Russian invasion of Ukraine, India remained in its neutrality principle only. This can be very well understood from the unnamed condemnation of the civilian killings. That is, though India condemned the civilian killings that is taking place in Ukraine, India did not mention that it was due to Russia. Also, it can be understood from India's absenteeism from the U.N. votes against Russia. So, India's neutrality principle has not differed from its history. Since we talked about absenteeism from U.N. voting against Russia, let me tell you few others who did the same. South Africa, United Arab Emirates, Turkey and Israel abstained from the voting in the United Nations Security Council. Here, United Arab Emirates and Israel are closest allies of the West, mainly the United States. South Africa is a democratic country and Turkey which is a NATO ally also abstained from the voting against Russia. See, none of these countries have come under the kind of pressure and public criticism from the West when compared to India. This pressure was well felt when the deputy national security advisor for international economics warned India of consequences that may arise due to India Russia trade continuation. This happened during his recent visit to New Delhi. So, now comes a question in everyone's mind. Why is this selective targeting of India done? Now, let us analyze three broad reasons behind this pressure or selective targeting of India by the Western countries, mainly the United States. There are three broad reasons that is political, economic and statutory reasons. First, let us see the political point of view. See, US President Joe Biden calls the Russian action against Ukraine as the attack on the free world.  So, India's support is necessary for the West. Only when India takes the side of the Western countries, the West can take a moral high ground in this issue. This is the political reason why India is cornered. Second, let us see the economic point of view. See, we know that there are several sanctions put on Russia in that most of the sanctions on Russia were imposed by the Western countries. These sanctions were backed by only three Asian countries. Who are they? They are Japan, South Korea and Singapore. We know that Russia, which is the world's second largest economy would not abide by the American sanctions. And we know that India is the second populous country in the world. So if India also continues its trade with Russia, the effect of the Western sanctions on Russian economy would not be very significant. Am I right? So, only if India takes the side of the West, the Western sanctions will make a dent in Russia's economy. This is the economic reason behind selective targeting of India. The third reason behind the pressure put by the United States on India is on the strategic point of view. See, India has improved its strategic partnership with the United States and the West. This is since the end of the Cold War, that is 1991. Note that in the last 30 years India has also retained warm ties with Russia. This balancing was not tested in the recent past. But in the present, that is the Russian attack on Ukraine is testing India's careful maneuverability between the West and Russia. Rightly so, India has not picked any sides. This is going against US plans for the Indo-Pacific region. See, the United States views India as a counterweight to China in the Indo-Pacific region. So, this is the strategic reason why the West is pushing India to take their side. See, these are the three reasons for the West in general and the United States in particular, targeting India. Having seen the reasons for India-specific targeting now let us see why neutrality is the best available option for India. See, every country formulates its foreign policy based on its national interest. Am I right? That is it does not make foreign policy merely on moral commitments. When you take US which condemns Russia in the present situation has itself performed immoral activities. Right? For example, NATO led by the United States bombed Yugoslavia for 78 days in 1999. See, there are so many such examples of the United States doing immoral activities to uphold its national interest. Okay? When we talk about India's national interest, India is a continental power as well as a maritime power. So, India needs Russia not only for defense and energy purchases but also for geopolitical reasons. This is because Russia, Iran and the Central Asian countries are important for India's continental security and interest. Then when you take India's ties with the United States, Japan and Australia, it is for its own maritime security and interest. This is the reason why neutrality is the best among the bad options that is available for India. Okay? So, India looks neutrality as the way to grow among the three major powers of the world. That is, the United States, China and Russia. Now, let us discuss how that NATO failed Ukraine. See, Ukraine was promised NATO membership in 2008 itself but it never got the membership. This NATO membership promise itself was enough to trigger Russia's aggressiveness. So, Russia annexed Crimea and started supporting militancy in the Donbas region. At this time, you continued to provide money and limited weapons to Kiev. But you should note here that the United States never took any meaningful measure. Here, meaningful measure is the NATO membership which Ukraine was promised in 2008 itself. Okay? But why is this NATO membership important? See, NATO would not be in a position to defend a country that is not a member of its alliance. And Ukraine was denied NATO membership. But the very thought that NATO membership could be offered to Ukraine in the future gave Russian president enough reasons to send his troops into Ukraine. See, although in the popular media it appears that Russia is backing down, Russia actually achieved its objectives. Very soon, Russia will force Ukraine to accept neutrality and not to accept NATO membership. When the war finally ends, Russia will definitely end up controlling more Ukrainian territories than it did before February 24. So, in the end both Russia and the West will be winners. It is only Ukraine that will be facing significant loss. This is the tragedy Ukraine is facing. And this tragedy is mainly due to NATO's unfulfilled promise. So, this is how NATO failed Ukraine. Okay? Now, that's all regarding this discussion. In this discussion, we saw some historical examples where India had sticked to its position of neutrality. Then we saw three reasons why the United States has been specifically targeting India, though some other countries like South Africa, Israel, the United Arab Emirates and the Turkey have not taken the side of the West. And then we saw why neutrality is the best available option for India. And finally, we saw how the NATO failed Ukraine. That's all regarding this discussion. With this, let us conclude this discussion and take up the next news article. Look at this news article. This news article talks about the Central Bank-backed digital currency or CBDC. See, the Reserve Bank of India is planning to come out with a Central Bank-backed currency using blockchain technology in 2022-23. So, knowing the importance of data privacy and monetary policy, the RBI Deputy Governor says that it should not do any harm. Also, the RBI Deputy Governor emphasized that RBI was looking at Central Bank digital currency just as a digital form of paper currency. This is the crux of the news article given here. In this context, let's discuss what is a Central Bank digital currency. Then we will see what are all its features. Okay? First, what is a Central Bank digital currency? See, Central Bank digital currencies are digital tokens. They are similar to cryptocurrencies but they are issued by a Central Bank. They are pegged to the value of the issuers fiat currency. What is a fiat currency? See, fiat money is backed by a government instead of a physical commodity or financial instrument. For example, the Indian rupee backed by the Indian government is an example of a fiat currency. Okay? Now, coming back to CBDC. What is RBI planned CBDC? See, CBDC or Central Bank digital currency is a legal tender. And the issuer here is the Reserve Bank of India. As I said, RBI CBDC is an electronic record or a digital token of India. See, it will serve as a official currency which fulfills basic functions as medium of exchange, unit of account, store of value and standard of deferred payments. Okay? According to RBI, CBDC is same as currency issued by the Central Bank but takes a different form than paper. Okay? So, it is a sovereign currency in an electronic form. Note that it will appear as liability on Central Bank's balance sheet. That is, it is currency in circulation. Now, let us see how the features of CBDC or Central Bank backed digital currency is advantageous. See, CBDCs will be made exchangeable at par with cash. So, it helps in reducing the cost of cash. The next is, CBDC will help improve the speed of transaction. This is because it will significantly bring down time taken for cross-border transaction and make transactions in real-time. So, we can say that CBDC will have cost and distributional efficiency. The next is that CBDC will eliminate the need for inter-bank settlement. So, it helps in improving the cross-border transaction. To put it in simple terms, introducing CBDC helps in bringing settlement efficiency. Okay? The next thing is, CBDC will provide users with a sovereign option. So, it is safe when compared to other less safe digital currencies like Bitcoin and Eritreum. Okay? One important point to be noted here is that blockchain technology that is to be used in RBI-planned CBDC. See, blockchain technology is present everywhere with the potential for beyond just digital currencies. Also, it helps in removing the need for intermediaries in various processes. This will help creating a transparent, fast and efficient systems overall. Okay? See, these are some features of the central bank-backed digital currency. Now, we have come to the end of the discussion. With these learned points, let us conclude this discussion and take up the next news article. Look at this news article. According to this news article, the union government has confirmed reports that Chinese hackers continue to target Indian power plants, mainly those close to the line of actual control. And the Minister of Power, Mr. R. K. Singh, told reporters that at least two attempts by Chinese hackers were made on electricity distribution centers near Ladakh, but they were not successful. He also informed the reporters that the ministry has already strengthened the different system to counter such cyberattacks. So, this is the crux of the news article given here. In this context, let us quickly go through some of the steps taken by the Indian government to prevent cyberattacks and cybercrime. Firstly, what is cyberattacks? Cyberattacks are malicious attempts to access or damage a computer or a network system. Government has taken few steps to prevent such cyberattacks and cybercrimes. Such steps are CERTIN i.e. Indian Computer Emergency Response Team, Cyber Surakshit Bharat Yojana, Cyber Swachhatha Kendra i.e. Botnet Cleaning and Malware Analysis Center and finally, Indian Cybercrime Coordination Center. Now, we will see in brief about all these initiatives in Prillim's perspective. Firstly, let us take CERTIN i.e. Indian Computer Emergency Response Team. It is an organization of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. Its main objective is to secure Indian cyberspace. Also, it is the nodal agency which deals with cyber security threats like hacking and phishing. Its main function is to collect, analyze and decimate information on cyber incidents and also issues alerts on cyber security incidents. By doing so, it is actually strengthening the security later defense of the Indian Internet Domain. Apart from this, CERTIN provides incident prevention and response services as well as security quality management services. Most importantly, CERTIN has overlapping responsibilities with other agencies such as National Critical Information Infrastructure Protection Center, i.e. NCIIPC. These are some points about CERTIN, i.e. Indian Computer Emergency Response Team. Now, let us take Cyber Surakshit Bharat Yojana. The Cyber Surakshit Bharat initiative was launched in January 2018 by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. It is the first public-private partnership of its kind that leverages the expertise of the information technology industry in cyber security along with METIS organization. Its main objective is to create awareness around cyber security and develop an empowered and strong cyber ecosystem in government organizations in India. How will they attain this objective? Through the deep dive training program. See the program aim to prepare the chief information security officers and frontline information technology officers to face challenges of cyber security and handle the cyber crisis. This type of training empowers them to secure their organizations from cyber threats and for smooth delivery of e-governance services and functioning of the protection units. Remember, these programs will be organized by the National e-governance division under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. See, these are some points about the Cyber Surakshit Bharat Yudhna. Moving on, let us take the Cyber Swasatha Kendra that is botnet cleaning and malware analysis center. It is the part of the Government of India's Digital India Initiative under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. It aim to create a secure cyberspace by detecting botnet infections in India and to notify enable cleaning and securing systems of end users so as to prevent future infections. The Cyber Swasatha Kendra or the botnet cleaning and malware analysis center is set up in accordance with the objectives of the National Cyber Security Policy which envisages creating a secure cyber ecosystem in the country. This center operates in close coordination and collaboration with internet service providers and anti-virus companies. This website provides information and tools to users to secure their systems and devices. Now, this center is being operated by the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team that is CERTIN. These are some points about Cyber Swasatha Kendra or the botnet cleaning and malware analysis center. Finally, let us take the Indian Cyber Creme Coordination Center. Indian Cyber Creme Coordination Center is an initiative of the Ministry of Home Affairs. Note that, okay? It is mainly established to combat cybercrime in the country in a coordinator and an effective manner. The scheme duration is for the period of 2018 to 2020. The overview of the scheme is given here for your reference. Please go through it. That's all regarding this discussion. In this discussion we discussed about some of the initiatives of the government to combat cyber security threats and cyber crimes. With this let us conclude the news article discussion and take up the practice prelims questions. We have two practice prelims questions today. Let us see them one by one. Let us take up the first question. This question is about the RBI Planned Central Bank Pack Digital Currency. That is CBDC. Two statements are given. We have to find the correct statement. Let us take up the first statement. CBDC will eliminate the use of paper currency permanently. See, this statement is wrong. Actually when CBDC is implemented it will reduce the use of paper currency but it will not completely eliminate the use of paper currency. So statement one is incorrect. Now let us take up the second statement. It is a legal tender that is to be issued by the RBI. See, this statement is correct. Yes, CBDC is a legal tender in electronic form that is to be issued by the RBI mostly in 2022-23 period. So statement one is incorrect and statement two is correct. So the correct answer is option B two only. Now let us take up the second question. In this question four functions are given. We have to find which of the four given functions are the functions of Indian computer emergency response team. That is CERTIN. Let me read out the functions. First function is collection, analysis and decimation of information on cyber incidents. The second function is forecast and alert of cyber security incidents. The third function is emergency measures for handling cyber security incidents. And the fourth function is coordination of cyber incident response activity. See, all the given four functions are functions of Indian computer emergency response team. So since all the statements are correct the correct answer here is option C one, two, three and four. The main question based on today's discussion is displayed here. Write the answers and post them in the comment section. If you liked today's video like, comment and share it with your friends.

African drums are talking. Land of exotic mood and fevered wanderings where the echoing footsteps of adventurous dead still ring upon the ears of those who follow. Where parasites in buzzing hordes, a weight neat overhanging, finds that trellis a fancy of twilight on the path. Land of paradox and lies. Of greenery whose velvet softness harbors poisoned beads of perfumed agony. A land of pastel shades and painted death where death is marked by life and life by death. This is Africa. In the whispering forest of death, Ifabe, a beautiful native girl, leads the professor's party in search of a legendary treasure. Professor Edwards has never really trusted this native girl, for she has large yellow eyes and is a mistress of the art of hypnotism.  In a clearing, the party finds the headstones which mark the end of their search. And to support the professor's theory that the treasure originally belonged to a party of Roman invaders, Jack finds a Roman short sword. Just then, a throwing spear strikes into the ground, barely missing an guru. Don't shoot, Jack. Wait. Warner, him Adako, him chief's son. He's crazy, sir. He's foaming at the mouth. Look. The devils of the forest have ended his brain. What's it all mean, father? What do you want? You must have followed us for some reason. Adako, son of the chief, come in peace and let us plover. White men, the devils have decreed you to die. Warner and guru, go catch them. No, you stay here and go. Warner and guru, go catch them. Come back, come back. I'm guru. He's not armed, sir. Leave him alone, Jack. Keep your rifle ready just in case. Your warrior will be killed, white man. He has no spear, and the devils have entered into Adako's brain. They're circling like wrestlers. What's some girl going to do? Wait and see. I've watched him disarm more than one man. Well, this is a mad man. He's within striking distance. Oh! Look out. Pull him and go. Pull him.  No teeth, no bite. Where's that rope, Jack? We'll tie him up. White man, if Abbey has a better way, let her look into the eyes of Adako and he will forget his madness. What's that? I think I'd rather trust to a strong rope, if Abbey. No, white man. You shall have need of him. And of what use is a man that is bound with a rope? Well, you can try it. Then you lift his face off the ground and guru and still hold him. Aye, boy, no. Adako, look into the eyes of Adako. Hey, Abbey. Look long, Adako. For in them lies peace. Peace for thy tortured mind. Look long. Look, look. Why again, sir? She's done it.  Let him stand. If Abbey has taken his will, now there is no harm in him. Stand him up, and guru. Aye, boy, no. Watch him, plenty. Hey, Abbey, I want to talk to this man. I want to know how he came to follow us. The answer to that white man lies only in the mind over which he, Abbey, has drawn me cover. There may be danger in the lifting of the curtain. Well, maybe so. Well, I'll leave you here with him. You seem to be able to keep him quiet.  Come on, Jack. You, Lana. Let's go on with the digging. Okay, sir. Ah, Daco, look into the eyes of this Abbey. You will do as this Abbey commands, for she has taken your will, and your mind is hurled to do it as she pleases. Is this not so, ah, Daco? It is so, Abbey. See, they have found the gold. You shall carry the treasure for the white man to the river. The black warrior will go with you. At the edge of the river you will find the place. The treasure is safely in the canoe. Then you will bind your arms about the black warrior and leap into the water. Mamba the crocodile will see that your ancestors receive you quickly. You hear, Daco? Daco hears, eh, Abbey? And he will obey. It is well. This no word, but act quickly when the time is right. If Abbey commands the white man approach. Eh, Abbey, you were right. The iron box is full of priceless antiques. The French government will reward you handsomely when they are turned in. Yes, white man. But it is well for us to leave the forest as quickly as possible, since you have found up which we came to seek. I think we can manage the iron chest between us, Jack. Yes, I think so, sir. And Daco will carry the box. He is strong, and if Abbey will command it. M'Guro, you look after a Daco. He'll carry the box. Don't forget Nali here as quickly as he can. Hey, Abbey, tell a Daco to pick up his load. On those off. Tweaker, a Daco. Well, are we everything, Jack? Yes, sir. All right, M'Guro, lead the way with a Daco. We traveled that way now, white man. That way? Why, we didn't come in from that direction? It is quicker for travel. The river is there that will take us to the village of the white men who rule. Oh. If Abbey knows of a canoe that lies hidden in the bushes there. Well, that sounds better than trekking on foot, sir. It certainly does, Jack. Well, in that case, if Abbey, you'd better go along in front of the M'Guro and point out the path. It is well, white man. M'Guro, Daco, come. Are we really heading for civilization at last, Abbey? Yeah, I think so, Abbey. I'd like to get this gold plate off my hands as soon as possible. Did you notice it's Abbey's eyes when you mentioned taking the treasure to the government? Yes. I think she was hoping I didn't know this place was in French territory. Well, I hope she won't give us any trouble before we get rid of it. Those eyes of hers seem to pierce your brain. Here's the river. And if Abbey has told the Daco where the canoe lies. Well, the river runs through the fort, eh? Yes, I remember. I think I have my bearings now. What river is it, Father? More tributary of the Bakari.  And the white man knows his way? Yes, if Abbey, I think so. It is well. For he has a long journey before him. He should rest. He sure quite right. We all need a rest. Let's not sleep too close to the river, though. Too many mosquitoes. Check. Put out the blankets while Lorne and I have a look at the river. I want to see in M'Guro about guarding that chest. Okay, sir. We'll be back in a few minutes. The young Bwana is tired. Yes, if Abbey, I could do with a weak sleep. I'll get her, too, when we... when we reach the post, I... I... Why do you... Why do you look at me like that? Keep looking, little Bwana. Keep looking into if Abbey's eyes. No. No, I... I can't. You cannot close your eyes. You cannot take them away from if Abbey. No. No. It is well. If Abbey will command and you will obey. Yes. The time has come when if Abbey takes what she desires. Radako has been abused to her. But it is you if Abbey shall take to her own country. You, little Bwana, who shall have the love of if Abbey, you must listen and obey. Say nothing. The white woman comes. Jack, we can't find M'Guro anywhere. Father sent me back to get if Abbey. White woman, look at the Abbey. What? You look at... What's that? Look well for the black warrior whom you seek is in if Abbey's eyes. Do you see him? Yes. Now he walks into the forest. Do you see him? Yes. Then you shall follow him if Abbey commands. Go now. It will not be long, little Bwana. It will not be long. If Abbey's plans are nearing full film... Jack! Bwana! It is the big white man. He must answer him. Here, sir. Where's Bwana, Jack? Send her back here to bring if Abbey. The white woman has gone. Gone? Where? What do you mean? Jack, look at me, boy. What? Oh. Oh, so that's it. If Abbey, release this man's mind. The other gun is of no use to you, white man. What have you done with my daughter?  No. No. Shoot. You'll shoot yourself, white man. Yes. Yes. We'll shoot. Myself. Bwana! Oh! Bwana! Harnie-wazie! Harnie-wazie, Bwana! Oh, Bwana! What heaven's name! Oh! You fired that shot. Bwana! Guru shoot! Moonwich! Guru see, Bwana! Little gun turned so short to face. Yes. Yes, I remember. Good Lord, I... I was about... Great Scott. Thanks, Guru. Bwana. Missy. She here. Guru missy gun. Look after Jack and Guru. If Abbey. If Abbey. Yes, hot man. If Abbey is dying. She desired too much. That is all. The canoe... Yes, I found it. It is all. If Abbey dies now. If Abbey dies now. I will return in the morning. Hmm. Yeah, I guess you will never work any more magic. Jack! Jack! Can't you hear me? Slappy space lonely. Here, come out of it. Here, let me try. Come on. Jack! Jack, snap out of it, boy. Yes, sir. What's the matter? That's all right now. I'll just sit there for a minute, Jack. Father, that's just what happened to me. I seem to wake up with the Guru slapping my face. What's it all about? Now, we've all had a very narrow escape. And Guru, where did I go? Him fall in water, mamba choppin' plenty. Oh, the cracker there has got him, eh? I wanna him try make him Guru go to, and Guru no go. Him come find Missy, walk full sleep in forest, and Guru bring him back. Well, I guess that's another time. We'll have to thank you all, fellow.

Hey, what is up? My name is Rebedium. Today we're looking at this camera, the Canon XC10. It's small. It has a lens. It has a body. It has a handle. The lens doesn't come off. So a couple of months ago, I was looking to shoot a long-form sort of demonstration video in New York City and the C200 was going to be my A camera and then I was looking around for a B camera. I thought of using my 5D Mark III but it doesn't shoot C-Log. But most importantly, it isn't 4K so I couldn't leave the frame wide and then crop in and post when I wanted a tighter shot.  I looked at the 1DX and 1DC sort of cameras, the DSLR form-facted cinema cameras that do shoot 4K, but their 4K is cropped in there. They also have limits on the amount of video and time you can record and plus they're really expensive. They're almost the price of the C200. That brought me to these little cameras. There's the XC10, which is this one, and there's the XC15, which is a newer version. It has the same chip. It has a lot of the same controls. It just has a it has two important differences. One is a waveform monitor on the screen and the other one is a little box that sits on the cold shoe mount here and gives you XLR audio inputs. I wasn't using audio and I was going to expose off the C200. So I didn't need the waveform at particular time. So I got the XC10. It is a really nifty little camera. It shoots. It fits in your hand. It has this rotating side grip for very similar to the C version. It has this articulating touchscreen LCD. Interestingly, it comes with the 35mm equivalent of a 24 to 240mm lens that's set to the camera. It's not interchangeable lens. It has a very small chip in it and these are 35 equivalents. It's actually something like a 10mm to a 60mm lens. It takes LP6s just like the stills camera 5D Mark III. It shoots 4K, shoots 2K to SD cards, but shoots 4K to C-Fast cards. Same as the C200 does for its RAW, which is kind of interesting. Has internal mic, has face chasing auto focus that you can turn on and off. It has mic in. It has HDMI out. It has DC in, headphone jack. For what this camera was new, it's like $2,000. It packs a lot of punch. I was really curious to get it and to test it and to see if it did what I wanted it to do. So first, the advantages. The advantages are it's very small. It's very light. It shoots a long time for what you have. It shoots at very good quality in Canon's proprietary wrapper format. I think it's 300 megabits per second. Pretty much a made to measure B camera for the C series. If you have a C100, C300, C200, you need that second angle. You need that top down shot bolt that's right to the top of a C stand to have a top down product shot like I've used before here. You know, just a safety camera so that if for some crazy reason you run out of batteries or the car jams or something goes terribly wrong with your camera that you have a second camera with you at all times to get that shot if you need it. This is this is a pretty good solution. You have an image stabilizer. You actually have three stops of ND in here. I'm not quite sure how that works. I guess there's a little tiny little sunglasses that drops down in front of the sensor, which came in really handy when you were shooting outside and wanted to keep the aperture low. Speaking of aperture, this is a not a fixed F stop lens. It goes from two eight when it's the widest all the way to five six when it's the closest or the longest. So you are going to see as you zoom in, you are going to see if you're wide open, the image grow darker. That's not ideal. That's probably one of the that's probably one of the downsides to this. Another downside is the C fast card aspect.  I guess the the form factor is so small that they weren't able to put in enough processing power to bring the size of the files down and put it onto the SD card. So we're stuck with C fast cards. But if you have them like I have them for the C 200 anyway, it's not that big a deal. I found it to be a perfect gimbal camera because it has a screen built in. It's small, it's light. It's pretty wide at 24 mil. It's, you know, perfect gimbal sort of size. If you could take this off, that'd be great. But it's what gives the power to the camera. So it is a little bit left weighted. You can see here that the center of gravity is sort of not right over the lens, but a little bit this way. I tried it on the Tilda gravity and it was phenomenal. Actually, you could, you know, it really was able to manipulate it with no trouble at all and get very, very smooth motion in 4K C log that you can cut straight into your videos. Matching this with the C 200 wasn't as easy as I first thought it would be. You do need to do a little bit more finicking in post to get the colors to match. It isn't a case of drag and drop, even if you're using C log or C log to like I am on the C 200 and C log on this, they're just a little bit different. They're different chips. It's much closer than trying to match the 5D Mark III non-C log, you know, Rec 709 color space to a C log color space on the C 200. That's my sum up of the Canon XC 10. Hope you dug it. There will be, I believe, an XC 20 coming out. There's also a patent that people have found on the Internet for a movable lens version of this. I'd be kind of tempted to get that one, except for the fact that you then now spending thousands of dollars of lenses on your B camera. Whereas, you know, this lens is it's a Canon lens. It looks good. It works pretty well. I think you can overthink B camera and get carried away. Best when you just keep it simple, use it for a few shots. It's a million times better than a GoPro or an iPhone shot fits much better into my workflow and yeah, happy with it. Thanks, Canon, for the lens of the camera. That's my review of the Canon XC 10. Thanks for watching. I will see you next time.


John Lund as Johnny dollar. Hi, Johnny. Shelly Thomas in federal. You're up early today. I've already been at my desk for two hours. How'd you like to work on one for me? What's it about? In cold hard claim cash it comes to exactly twelve thousand four hundred and eighty two dollars and sixteen cents. That's interesting. What's it mean? Somebody's been filtering a lot of merchandise over in Toledo and it's beginning to hurt. Could you get over there and have a look around? Sure. Well it sounds like a police job to me. Well I don't expect any miracles Johnny. I just want a good factual report on the whole business for my clients. See you in an hour. John Lund in the transcribed adventure of the man with the action packed expense account. America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator. Here's truly Johnny dollar. Expense account submitted by special investigator Johnny dollar to the federal insurance and claims adjusters 2044 Appalachian drive Hartford Connecticut. The following is an accounting of expenditures during my investigation of the costane matter. Expense account item one forty nine dollars fifteen cents. Plain fare and incidentals Hartford to Toledo. On route I read over the details concerning the case. Thirty seven stolen merchandise claims have been filed and paid off in what looked like a first class shoplifting epidemic in Toledo. I parked my two bags at the Commodore Perry Hotel and went over to the main police station. Lieutenant Sturgis was in charge. Sit down sit down. Thanks. Federal insurance and claims adjusters. That's right. You're here to find out what we've been doing about all the shoplifting is that it. Well we represent the insurance companies who've had to pay off on these theft claims. Yeah sure I see. Well what do you want to start. Let me see. How about this Marmee dress shop OK. That's the February 10th. Proprietor Mrs. Bancroft registered a complaint with us that addressing the coach we're missing from the store X. Well we went over there and talked to her about it made out the report is another shoplifting job and put a description of the code in the dress Marchie. Dress hold sailed at one hundred thirteen dollars code had a fair trim one at three hundred ninety five dollars. Yeah looked a little better than most shoplifting jobs to us. We had in mind when we got another complaint three days later from a place over on Oak Avenue. That would be my lady's shoppy. A negligent soap robe. Yeah we covered that one too. Both of them came to two hundred eighty six dollars. Yeah same thing as a Marmee clerks hadn't seen anyone didn't know anything. The week of the 15th we had two more complaints on the twenty third three complaints have been coming in regular ever since the last one three days ago. Always best stores always expensive merchandise. We rounded up every known shoplifter in our files and we've had our store personnel at all of our lineups. No one's been able to make an identification so far. First we thought it was a plain expert shoplifting done by a well organized gang looks that way. Not so much anymore. Do you notice on your list there that all of these items are for a woman. Yeah dresses coats blouses cosmetics military costume jewelry and so on. Now what we didn't pick up until about a month ago is that all of the articles of clothing that have been taken are for a woman who wears a size ten dress. That is a funny one and it rules out a gang right away. This pattern to it but I'm going to have someone else tell you about that. Yes Lieutenant I see if Sergeant Bidler is in right. Ninety nine times out of a hundred a shoplifter will take anything he or she can get her hands on regardless of cost size color or anything else so we don't think this is the work of an old timer either. You mean somebody's just gathering up a nice wardrobe at my insurance company's expense. Something like that if any of these stolen articles have been sold or disposed of we'd have a lead by now. The stuff has been on the hot sheet for months covered point shot second hand sir. Yes Sergeant Bidler on to right. Hello Sergeant how's it going. Thanks Lieutenant. There's a man in my office named dollar I'm sending him down to see you. Women in the department reacted a little differently than the man to all this. How's that. Well when they went over the stolen property sheets they were first impressed of course by the fact that all of the clothing was for someone who wore a size 10. The other thing though was the good taste. Well a lot of thieves have good taste I suppose. This one seems to have not only good taste but a pretty exclusive taste. You mean the expensive places that have been robbed. Well that but even more. You see here. On March 4th one green suede coat missing from tolls apparel shop and here on the 13th. Brown organ be dressed in the Commodore in here. Cocoa colored sports coat. Yeah hats and gloves in green and brown beige sometimes yellow no other colors. Well what does it mean. Any woman who restricts herself to these particular colors in dressing green brown beige cocoa yellow must have a very definite coloring of her own. We think a redhead with green eyes. Well you know best about that. But why green eyes could maybe blue or brown. They could be. But there's been a particular emphasis on green in the coats and dresses that have been stolen. Besides that there's the cosmetics. Did you cover Yeagers. No Yeagers is a very plush cosmetic store here. Nothing but perfume makeup. They reported March 2nd a whole box of green eye shadow had been stolen from one of their counters and green eye shadow only goes with green eyes. Yes. Whereas blue eye shadow would fit a person with either blue or brown eyes. Now at the same time the eye shadow was taken several tubes of lipstick and rouge were also stolen. Both of those items contained orange tinting. That gives us another reason for thinking the eyes are green. I'm convinced a redhead with green eyes. Oh and it's a short hairdo. It is. Look at my hair. I am Sergeant.  But a small hat one with a tight contour would be all right. Hey I'm coming around. The case millinery story. Yes. Four hats total value of one hundred eighty five dollars. Yes those hats that were taken in cases were small especially designed for a woman with a short hairdo. We think that some of the costume jewelry that's been stolen ties in with the clothes too. Well how does it stand right now. We've had our troubles on this one. It's impossible to tie up the manpower it would require to cover every dress in the pearl shop in town not to mention the department store. Sure. We're doing the next best thing. No stores been taken a second time so we've spotted a dozen police women from my department and as many stores around town that still hasn't been hit and they're posing clerks. How long has this been going on since Monday. Maybe we'll get a lead this way. Yeah Sergeant. This is just a wild one but suppose a redheaded woman with green eyes isn't doing it after all. Suppose somebody's doing it for me thought of that and it looks like a possibility. None of the personnel we've questioned in any of these stores has been able to say definitely whether or not they saw anyone with red hair on the premises or around the shop to fit the time incident to the particular robbery. I see. There's another thing we're working on to beauty shops. She's a redhead and she's got all of these expensive clothes. It's a good bet she keeps herself up you know has her hair and nails done regularly. Yeah. We've covered about 50 different beauty salons in town the best ones. So then the kind of woman we're looking for and giving them an idea of what she'll be wearing. Well if she's still in town something should break pretty soon. I'd like to go over the original complaints if it's possible. Main filings on the second floor. Ask for Sergeant Kelly and he'll give you what you want. I'll do that. Thanks a lot. After a full day and a half of studying the crime reports I whole heartedly agreed with Lieutenant Sturgis and Sergeant Bidler. Since none of the stolen articles had appeared in any of the usual places for disposal I was convinced it was not the work of an organized gang or of a previous offender. All clothing that had been taken was the same size and a small variety of colors and as Sergeant Bidler had pointed out suited only to a certain type of woman with definite physical characteristics. Red hair, green eyes. Johnny Dallin. I think we've got something here. What? I met Lieutenant Sturgis in the police garage and we drove over to Toll's apparel shop on West Oak Street one of the clerks there had phoned in and reported she'd seen a woman wearing a green suede coat that had been stolen from the store a month before. The clerk's name was Alice Emerson. I'm sure it was the coat. Well how can you be sure of that Mrs. Emerson? Well it was the only one like it in the entire store and as far as I know in Toledo it had a gathering at the back and gold buttons. I just knew that coat the minute I saw it on her. I just knew it. Oh this was about a half an hour ago you say? Yes I was on my lunch hour and I was eating at the Westgate. The cafeteria? Yes. She was about three people ahead of me in the line. I didn't remember at first that the coat had been from us but when I sat down to lunch I recalled it. I really didn't know what to do exactly then I thought well I better make sure it is the coat you know I wouldn't want to make trouble for anyone. What did you do? Well she had a table over by the wall eating her lunch alone so I finished my lunch and I walked over near her and I took a good look at the coat. It was our coat all right the one that was taken from that rack over there. I was going right out on the street and called a policeman but I guess she got a little suspicious of me looking at her the way I did and she got up and left. What did she look like Mrs. Emerson? Oh she was nice looking woman but my size 30 or so very nice. What color was her hair? Dark very dark. Dark? Blacky me? Or dark brown? I don't know which. Did you happen to notice the color of her eyes? No no I didn't but she wore glasses, horn rimmed. Are you certain it's the same coat? I'm positive. Have you ever seen the woman before? No never. At least I don't think I have. Nothing familiar about her at all? No. Did you happen to notice which direction she went in when she left the cafeteria? No I don't know where she went she just got into a taxi cab. I went with Lieutenant Sturges to the offices of the taxi cab company that covered Metropolitan Toledo. There we began checking the way bills as they came in. Since less than an hour had elapsed from the time Mrs. Emerson called in we didn't have to go through too many of them. At the intersection of Oak and Westgate which was right in front of the cafeteria cab number 418 had carried a fare to a hotel apartment house called the Colonial on the east side of town, Yandota Street. We spoke with the driver of the cab on the phone when he checked into the office. He remembered the fare. A woman in a green suede coat. Try that. Yeah. Hello can I help you? Police. Oh? Now sometime in the last hour a cab brought a woman to this address we'd like to talk to her. She's about 5'4", about 30, dark air wearing a green suede coat. You know? Well let's see. Four horn rim glasses? Well I've got 175 apartments here. Wait, a green suede coat? Yeah. Well Miss Jones. Jones huh? Yes, Lily and Jones. She just checked in two days ago. Alone? Yes. What apartments she in? 1429. Shall I ring her? No no, never mind.  From the description we gave the desk clerk at the Colonial apartments he identified our suspect is Lillian Jones, apartment 1429.  As far as the clerk knew she was still in her apartment. We took the self-service elevator up to the 14th floor. It'll be down this way. Hey wait 1410 then it goes to 21. Yeah. All the corridor. Oh yeah. Lillian Jones, police like to talk to you. May we come in? We can talk here. It'll be easier inside. Here's all right for me. Let's go inside Miss Jones. Okay. What's this all about? A woman who works at tolls apparel shop saw you in the Westgate cafeteria at lunchtime today. She said you were wearing a coat that was stolen from them.  I don't even know where tolls apparel shop is. She was pretty certain about it. I've been here all day. I had my lunch here. Anybody with you? What do you mean? Did you eat alone? Sure I ate alone. Miss Jones, we can get the woman from tolls to come over here and identify you. Say listen.  It all be lying. I've been here all day. You prove it? Sure I can prove it. Clerk downstairs said you just came in about 20 minutes ago. He's lying too. It's a green suede coat. You have a green suede coat? No. Listen, you just get out of there. Where's the coat Miss Jones? I don't know what coat you're talking about. A green suede coat. How would you do with it? I don't have a green suede coat. You have any objection to our looking around? You bet I have. All right. We'll get a search warrant. I'm afraid you'll have to come with us Miss Jones. I'm not going anywhere with anybody. Get out of here. Get out of my apartment. I'll make plenty of trouble for the both of you. Come on Miss Jones. William Jones had a record of one previous arrest two years before. The charge grand theft. She'd been released for lack of evidence. Her profession was listed as a domestic. The sales lady from tolls apparel shop appeared and positively identified her as the woman she had spotted in the Westgate cafeteria wearing the stolen coat. The cab driver who'd driven her from the intersection of Westgate and Oak to the Colonial Apartments was called in. He also identified her. She still refused to admit anything. Maintaining that she hadn't left her apartment all day. Lieutenant Sturgis took a detail of men to her place to search the premises. I stayed with Sergeant Bidler while she questioned William Jones. Why won't you tell us what you did with the coat, Lillian? I don't know what coat you're talking about. Honest, I don't. Mrs. Emerson, are you wearing it at the cafeteria today? The cab driver, are you wearing it? The clerk at your apartment desk, are you wearing it? They're all liars. I don't own a green suede coat. You people have no right to hold me like this and ask me all these questions. I haven't done anything. What did you do with the coat? There isn't any coat. Where'd you hide it? I want a lawyer. Can I call a lawyer? Tell us about the coat. You stole it from Toll's Apparel Shop on March 4th. Isn't that right? I don't know anything about Toll's Apparel Shop. I told you. It's on Oak Street. I'll drop in and say hello sometime. What about the other thing? What other thing? You know what we're talking about, Lillian.  We'll find out sooner or later. Who are you working with? I want a lawyer. Where's it hidden? I want a lawyer. Can make a statement now and save yourself a lot of trouble. I want a lawyer. We continue to question Lillian Jones regarding the green suede coat. She denied ever having such a coat in her possession. However, at 3.45 that afternoon, Lieutenant Sturges returned with his detail of men. They had found the coat stuffed into a clothes happer. I took it over to the shop and the people there positively identified it as the one stolen on March 4th. Yeah? They had had their label and one of their stock tags in the pocket. Well, that should do it. I don't know what we've uncovered here, though. There wasn't anything else in the apartment that fit any of the other thefts. Yeah? Well, you can hold her on this. Oh, sure. I'll have her booked in right away. Lillian Jones was charged with grand theft. Before she was taken to the main jail, she admitted that she had stolen the coat. But not from the apparel shop. From the home of her family by the name of Custaine. She said she'd been employed there for two weeks as a domestic servant. Mr. Custaine was a civil engineer with offices in downtown Toledo. They informed us that he'd already left for his home. So we drove out there to interview him. It was a large 12 room place on the edge of town. A servant took us into the living room. A few moments later, a tall gray haired man in his early fifties made an appearance. I'm Mr. Custaine. I'm Lieutenant Sturges, Mr. Custaine. Yes, Mr. Daller. How do you do? Police? That's right.  It's quite all right. Sit down, please. Thanks. We're holding a woman dubbed town named Lillian Jones, Mr. Custaine. I understand you employed her at one time. Lillian Jones? Oh, the maid, yes. Is she in trouble? We're just checking her story. I see. She was in possession of a green suede coat at the time we took her in, Mr. Custaine. She insists that she took the coat from your home. Why would she say a thing like that? Well, we don't know. We thought maybe you could clear that up. I have no idea what she's talking about. I fired her last Tuesday, I believe it was. That was the last I saw of the woman. Was she very angry when you fired her? Not particularly. It's just that she didn't work out here very well. I gave her two weeks' pay, told her to go. It's a green suede coat with gold buttons down the front. I don't know where she got it, I'm sure, but I know she didn't get it here. Funny she'd tell us she stole it from here. Yes, it is. I don't know why. Is Mrs. Custaine at home? Mrs. Custaine passed away last February. Oh, I'm sorry. Do you have a daughter? No. We have to check into all these things, you know. Oh, I understand. I wish I could help you. You can, if you will, Mr. Custaine. How's that? Would you mind dropping into my office tomorrow and taking a look at the coat? I don't know what good that would do, but I'd be glad to do it. You just might recognize it, perhaps it belonged to Mrs. Custaine. Possibly. Although I don't remember it. Room 212 in the main building. All right, Lieutenant. I'll be there in the morning. Fine. Sorry to bother you, but I'm not at all. Good night. Good night. Good night. Did you see it? The color printed on the piano? Yeah. A red-headed woman with green eyes. A check in the neighborhood revealed that the Custains had been living in Toledo less than a year. Before that, they'd lived in Detroit. Financially, they were in the upper-income bracket. The house was completely paid for. There were two expensive late-model cars in the garage. The Office of Vital Statistics informed us that Mrs. Custaine had died on February 6th of a heart condition. It also noted that her hair had been red, her eyes green. Lieutenant Sturges, robbery. Oh, yes, of course. I see. What are you going to be home? Fine. I'm with Custaine. Yeah? He just changed his story. He said he did know that William Jones stole that coat when she left the house. You give any reason for not admitting it when we were there? Well, just wants to see us. I'm afraid I've caused you some trouble on this. Oh, we don't quite understand why you didn't tell us about it last night. It's rather simple, probably rather silly. I have a devil of a time keeping servants here for some reason. If a notice got in the paper that I'd accused one of them of theft, well, I'd have a difficult time getting another one there that way. That coat's worth over $600, Mr. Custaine. Yes, I know. It belonged to my wife. And you let it go like that? Oh, I'm insured for personal loss. Did you report this to your insurance broker? Oh, yes. Did you file a claim? Yes. What's your broker's name? Mr. Levant. He has offices in the metropolitan building. When did you report the loss? On Wednesday. You mind if I call him and check this? I don't see why that's necessary. I've just told you what I did about the matter. Oh, we're still puzzled, Mr. Custaine. That coat was reported stolen from Toll's apparel shop last March 4th. That's absurd, of course. Mrs. Custaine bought that coat for herself the week or so before her illness. Did she handle it or did you? What do you mean? Would she pay for it or will you build? I suppose I was billed. I don't recall. Are you insinuating that Mrs. Custaine might have stolen that coat? No, Mr. Custaine. Your wife was already dead when that coat was stolen. Oh, no. You're wrong. What do you mean? Edna's not dead. She'll come back. And when she does, when she does, I'll have all these things for her, the things I denied her before. Denied her? Yes. I always told Edna she was too extravagant that she didn't need all those expensive things. You could have bought them. Why did you steal them? I always denied her the things she loved. When Edna went away, I don't know what came over me. Loneliness seemed too much somehow. I'd go out during the day from my office and wander through the stores, stores that she used to love very much. And whenever I had the opportunity, I stole the things she always wanted. What did you do with them? They're in Edna's bedroom, hanging in her wardrobe. Would you like to see them? Expense account item 2, $75.25, board and room while in Toledo. Item 3, $62, miscellaneous. Item 4, $41.10. Plain fare back to Hartford. Expense account total, $227.50. Yours truly, Johnny Dollar. Yours truly, Johnny Dollar, stars John Lund in the title role and was written by E.

And now I'm going to go into Ulumul Quran, the way that we're going to be going through the class today is in the following. We're going to do a Ta'arif. We're going to define bil-ayah. Ta'arif bil-ayah. And surah, we're going to do the definition of what? In the Ulumul Quran. So number one, we're going to define what it means ayah, verse. Ayah, what does it mean? And what does surah mean? What is the definition of ayah and surah? The word ayah, Lugatan, it means Al-Alamah, sign. It's a sign. Are you with me brothers? The word ayah, what does it mean in the language? It means Al-Alamah, sign. The signs of Allah, how much? What did Al-Qalqat scholars, they mentioned, it's how many types? Ayat, which are what? Ayat, Quniyah and Ayat. Allah Azza wa Jalla, He has placed for us Ayat, Quniyah, universal signs. What did He place for us? Universal signs, Ayat, which are Quniyah, universal. The stars, the moon, Allah mentions them a lot. Are you with me brothers? Allah says about the believers, what did they do? They look over the sky, the sun, the moon and they say, Oh Allah, you did not create this without a purpose. There was an aim and objective behind it. And then look at their pondering, what did they say after that? Subhanaka faqeena adab al-Nar. Oh Allah protect us from the punishment of the Hellfire. The second one is Ayat, shara'iyah. And that's what Allah mentioned. Did they not ponder on the, the Quran or the locks on their hearts? Another place Allah says, if they did not ponder on the, the Quran kathira pondering over the verses of Allah. These are two signs. Are you with me brothers? The universal signs and the what? Which one are we talking about? We're going to be talking about the shara'iyah ones, inshallah. We're not going to be talking about the universal signs. So when we speak about it now, according to the definition that we give it, we're going to give it, I call you to the ulama of the Quran. So it's the shara'i definition. Okay. What is the word? Ayamin. It means, what does it mean? It's a potion. Technically, it means, jumlah min kalam illahi aze wa jalla mun darija fi surah min al-Qurani. It's a jumlah, a potion from what? Min kalam illahi from the speech of Allah. It's a potion of the speech of Allah aze wa jalla mun darija fi surah min al-Qurani. That's the definition that we always give. It's a potion of the speech of Allah that falls under surah. It falls under surah. So it's ayat. You all know what ayah means. Okay. Such as qaulu ta'ala thumma nathar, thumma aabas wa basar. That's an ayah. We've defined what an ayah, what an ayah means. What does surah mean? We now need to know what a surah means. Does anyone know what a surah means? What does it mean? It means chapter, right? In English. It's ta'ifah mustaqilla. Ta'ifah mustaqilla. Ta'ifah mustaqilla min aayat al-Qurani al-Kareem. Min aayat al-Qurani al-Kareem. Yastalahan straight away. Zatumat tulaa wa maqbaa. Zatumat tulaa wa maqbaa. So we've defined surah and aayat. You guys look for the linguistic definition for the word surah insha'Allah ta'ala. Homework, okay? Try to get the linguistic definition of the word surah. So we've defined what aayah means linguistically and technically. We've defined what surah means technically. It's ta'ifah mustaqilla. It's a portion of verses that came together that made a chapter, okay? The second point that we're going to go to right now is, second point in today's class, is tarteeb. Tarteeb al-ayat, the order and the sequence of the aayat, hal-huwa, is it? Hal-huwa min, hal-huwa min qabeelil ijtihad, am min qabeelit ta'uqif. Question here, are the sequence of the aayat in the Quran, are they based on ijtihad, independent reasoning? The scholars, they strived hard and they put the order of the Quran like this, or the companions, they're the ones who ordered the Quran like this? Am min qabeelit ta'uqif. Or is this based on Quran? Is it based on Allah, as we're commanding the Prophet to do it in this way? Are we all together brothers? It's a question. The order that we see the Quran today in, was it based upon the companions saying, you know what, let's put this verse before this one. Or let's put that verse over there. Or is it based upon min qabeelit ta'uqif? Or is it something that was actually taken from Allah, as it were Jal? Jibril told the Prophet and said, put it here and put it there. The last is correct. That it is ta'uqif. The evidence is two things.  Consents is the evidence for us, right? I'm going to mention four scholars who brought the consentses. So the scholars who transmitted the consentses are more than four, but I'll just mention four for you. The first one is who? Soyouti in his Kitab al-Itqan, Abu Bakr al-Baqil Lani, in his Al-Intisar, al-Zamaqshari, al-Zarkashi, in his Burhan. All of these, they transmitted consents. Soyouti, Jalardina, Soyouti, Abu Bakr al-Baqil Lani, al-Zamaqshari, and al-Zarkashi. Soyouti mentioned in his Al-Itqan, Abu Bakr al-Baqil Lani, he mentioned in his Kitab al-Intisar, al-Zamaqshari he mentioned in his Kishaf, and al-Zarkashi he mentioned in what? Al-Zarkashi he mentioned in his Al-Burhan, consents. They all said there's no dispute, okay? Good. But I need to bring to the hadith that proves that the ayat of the Qur'an is Tawqif, al-Lamajala l-Ijtihadi fi. The evidence for that is the hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Ahmed narrated in his Musnad. Imam Ahmed, he narrated in his Musnad that Uthman ibn Abi Aas, r.a., he said, one day I was sitting with the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he gazed his eyes and he looked up and down. Then he looked up and he looked down. And the Prophet then said, Jibril just came to me. He commanded me. And he commanded me that I place this vest in this place of this surah. And then it was the ayah. This ayah, he said, Jibril just came to me. And he commanded me to take this vest and to place it in where? In surat al-Nahl. He commanded me to place it there. Are we all together brothers? So what does that show you? It shows you that this issue is al-Lamajala l-Ijtihadi fi. Are you there brothers? And there's another hadith, that shows the companions they didn't have no, they did not have any, what do you call it, ijtihad in the issue of the order of the ayat. The evidence for that is, the evidence for that is, Uthman radiallahu anhu when he was compiling the Quran. Ibn al-Zubair came to him. Abdullah ibn al-Zubair. He came to Uthman ibn al-Affan. And he came to him regarding the ayah in surat al-Baqarah, wa ladheena yu'tawafawuna minkum wa yadaruna az-wajan. He came to him and he said to him, this ayah, it's before the ayah that is abrogated. wa ladheena yu'tawafawuna minkum. It's before the ayah that is abrogated. And generally which one comes first? The one that's abrogated comes first and then the one that's been abrogated comes after. So he said, why don't you just change the order so people know that this one abrogated this one? And what did Uthman say? No. Ibn al-Zubair, we can't change this. Are you there brothers? And he did not allow him. And he said, I'm not going to change it. That shows you that the Sahabas, they didn't have no ijtihad in this issue. Are you there brothers? So how do you reconcile between the Mus'haf of Abdullah ibn al-Mas'ud and other people whose Mus'haf had different orders of the ayat? Are you there brothers? How do you reconcile between that? Because some of the Sahabas, some of the companions, their Mus'haf, the order was different. The scholars, they responded by saying, like Jalaluddin al-Suyut in his Kitab al-Itqan, he said that the response is they had the order before the last presentation of the Qur'an. The last time Jibril came and presented the whole Qur'an to the Prophet. Are you with me brothers? That order that was given, some of them didn't have it. Because the Qur'an was coming down, they were writing it as it came. Are you with me brothers? Does that make sense? So, Zaid Ibn al-Harith, what did he have? Zaid Ibn al-Harith had the Arhat al-Akhirah, the last presentation of the Qur'an, he had that. And he was the one who, Usman gave the delegation and the job of bringing the Qur'an. And then the companion all agreed upon this one. Are you there brothers? Never did they differ on the order of the Qur'an after that. Does that make sense brothers? I hope that clears everything for you. Another point that we want to speak about is the order of the Ayat, the number of Ayat in the Qur'an. What is the number of Ayat that we have in the Qur'an? The scholars all agree that the bare minimum is how much? 6000? The bare minimum is how much? 6000? 200, that's all agreed upon by everybody. There's a dispute after that. That's the bare minimum, no one's gone lower than that. But there came Khilaf after that. How much is it? Everybody, many Qul, Aqwal numbers were mentioned of what it was exactly. What concerns us here is kulfi'in and abasri'in, they have different ways of counting. Where did that come from? Did it come from one was bringing an extra verse and the other one said no, this is not part of the Qur'an, is that what it was? No. This is important that you understand this. This is the Shia what they use to say that the Qur'an is what? Muharraf, the Qur'an is distorted. Even the Sunni scriptures mention that the number of verses, it's not only us. Are you there brothers? The Sunnis don't believe that there's an extra verse that a party is bringing and the other one is saying take it out, that's not, no. The Khilaf is, is this ayah two or is it one ayah? Are you with me brothers? Is it one verse? Are you there brothers? That's where the Khilaf is coming from. Should we make these two verses? Or should we make it what? Or should we make it one verse? Am I making sense here? Okay, where did that problem come from? Why are they even arguing whether this should be made into two or one? Where did this come from? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I made it into two or one. Where did this come from? The reason is because the Messenger, peace be upon him, when he would recite those verses, sometimes he would stop there to teach the companions that this was a verse and sometimes he would connect it. Those who were taught yesterday, those who were taught yesterday that this is a verse because the Prophet would stop, where would he stop? The ending of every verse. Aleyhi salatu was-salam. So they would know that it's a verse. But if a person came the day after and the Prophet connected it, what would he realize? He would think it's what? All one. So this is where it came from, the numbers and the dispute amongst them. Are you there brothers? Are we all together? I'm trying to summarize the Aqwal and the views for you. That's that. Now we're going to go into the Surah of the Quran. Surah of the Quran. Is this the Oda So we mentioned Tertib al-Ayat. Now we're going to mention Tertib al-Surah. The Oda of the Surah. Is it min qabeel al-Ijtihad and min qabeel al-Tawqeef? Is it based upon independent reasoning? Or is it based upon Allah chose the order of the Quran? This one it does not have ijmaa. So there's no ijmaa. There's a khilaf in this issue. Are we all together brothers? This one has what? Khilaf. And the khilaf is only three. This is where I summarized it. The khilaf is how many? Three khilaf. Three difference of opinion. The Oda of the Surah of the Quran. Is it from Allah? Or is it based upon the companion's independent reasoning? Is it based upon the ijtihad? There are three views. The first view says this is from Allah. Baqara and Ali Imran and Nisa. It's from Allah. The Oda is from Allah. That's the first view. The second view they see it is to be what? Anna hujtihadi. It's what? ijtihad. It's all based upon what? It's all based upon ijtihad. Independent reasoning. The third view is anna ba'ada suwar. Some of the surahs of the Quran are ijtihadi and some of them are tawqeefi. The third view is what? Some of the suwar of the Quran is what? Tawqeefi and some of it is what? ijtihadi. ijtihadi. ijtihadi. And the strongest opinion is that the surahs of the Quran are what? Tawqeefi. The first view is the strongest. We won't discuss it more why and how. The last point insha'Allah. The first view which is that it is tawqeefi is the strongest opinion. We're now going to take the last point which is aqsamu-tarteeb al-masahif. This mus'af that we have how is it organized? Sorry before I go into that how many surahs in the Quran are there? One one? One hundred fourteen. That's the strongest. Okay. We're going to now go into aqsamu-tarteeb al-mus'af. This mus'af that we have how do we organize it? This uda of the mus'af is broken into four. And the person who broke it into four is the Prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam. In the hadith, Al-Imam Ahmad is written in his mus'af from the hadith of the messenger sallallahu alayhi sallam he divided the Quran and the surahs of the Quran into four. The surah into four. The first one is sab'u-ttywal. Sab'u-ttywal Sab'u-ttywal is the seven lengthy surahs. Write that down. Seven lengthy surahs. Okay, this is important that you write this down because the Prophet categorized the surahs of the Quran. The first one is sab'u-ttywal. You know what the Prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam said in the hadith? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam said sab'u-ttywal, the seven lengthy surahs. You know what the Prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam said? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam said ta'alman faqihah. Anyone who understands a sab'u-ttywal, the seven lengthy surahs, fahu'a habrul. What's a habr? Alim. These seven surahs I'm going to mention. If you memorize them, and if you understand them, you are a scholar. I didn't say that. Who said that? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam said that. These seven surahs, you memorize them, and you understand them.  Surah al-Baqarah. It's the seven that they're all in Uda. Other than Fatiha, Uda. Baqarah. Ali Umran. Surah al-Nisaa. Surah al-Ma'idah. Surah al-An'am. Surah al-A'raf. Surah al-Anfal and Tauba, because there's no basmala between the two of them. So it's one. Are you there, brothers? Sab'at wawali. So just write up to you what Surah al-Tawbah. From Surah al-Baqarah to Surah al-Tawbah. It is Baqarah, Ali Umran, Surah al-Nisaa, Surah al-Ma'idah, Surah al-An'am, Surah al-A'raf, Surah al-Anfal and Surah al-Tawbah. These are seven what? Sab'at wawali. Seven lengthy Surahs.  Are you there, brothers? The second is al-Mi'een. Al-Mi'een means what? The Prophet called it this name. The Prophet called the first one as Sab'at wawali. The second one, the Prophet called it what? Al-Mi'een, Mi'een. What does Mi'een mean? The hundreds. It's called the hundreds. What is it called? The hundreds. What are they? It's every Surah in the Qur'an that it's a hundred or a little bit more. Just a little bit more. Any Surah in the Qur'an that you see that Surah is a hundred or a little bit more. Other than the seven that we mentioned. Other than the seven. What are they more? What is that called? Al-Mi'een. The third categorization is what? Al-Mathani. Al-Mathani means what? The Surahs that repeat. What does it repeat? It repeats Fara'id, Hudud, Qisas and Amthal. It repeats the obligations. You see these obligations mentioned somewhere else. Repeating something that was already mentioned. Or the capital punishments. Or stories that are being mentioned. In that Surah it's been mentioned somewhere else. It's repeating it. It's called Mathani. Mathani is repetition. The word Mathani means what? Repetition. Abdullah Ibn Abbas, that's what he said. Number four is Al-Mufassal. Al-Mufassal. What is it? Mufassal is divided into three. The Mufassal is divided into three. Are you there brothers? The first one is Tewalul Mufassal. What is it? Tewalul Mufassal. Tewalul Mufassal is from Suratul Qaf to Suratul Amma. Suratul Naba. Qaf up to Amma. Naba. The second one is Awsatul Mufassal. Awsatul Mufassal means the middle Mufassal. The middle. We already took the word Tewal. Tewal means the lengthy ones. The second one is Awsatul Mufassal. The Awsatul Mufassal is what? From Suratul Naba to Suratul Dhuha. To Suratul Suratul Dhuha. And the third one is Qisarul Mufassal. Qisarul Mufassal is from Suratul Dhuha to Suratul Nass. Are you there brothers? No, no, it starts from the second one. No. And the scholars they differed whether the Mufassal starts from Hujurat or Suratul Qaf. There's a Khilaf and Ujburi he says in his line or poetry. He says He takes the opinion that Hujurat is but the strongest opinion is that the Mufassal is what? Qaf. How do we know? Are you there brothers? Let's count. Do you know how you count to get to the Mufassal? We're going to count in odds until we can't do odd anymore. Right? Are you there brothers? Until we can't do the odd. So here, let's take it. If we do it the Quran we take it all takes all of the Fatiha out. Start from Baqarah. Baqarah. Ali Imran and Ali Imran Ali Imran and then Suratul Nisa. That's three. Again, now you have to count five. Five from where? Ma'idah. We just said Ali Imran, Suratul Nisa and Suratul. We said Ma'idah, right? No, we didn't. We said Baqarah. Ali Imran, Suratul Nisa. So we now start from Ma'idah Suratul. An'am, Suratul. A'raf, Suratul. Suratul. And then we start. We do seven. We do nine. We do eleven. We do thirteen. We do fifteen. We carry on like that. Seventeen, nineteen. We go on. And when we reach Suratul Qaf the odd numbers won't carry on. Because too much. Are you with me? Anyone whose mind is absent. The one whose mind was present let him convey to the one whose mind was absent. Okay? I'll stop there, insha'Allah. A lot of you guys already go to sleep. I can see like anything which I have said that was wrong or incorrect is from me. Asha'Allah. SubhanakAllah.
