Income tax 2022-2023, items that are not income. Let's do some wealth preservation with some tax preparation. Most of this information comes from the Tax Guide for Small Business for Individuals Who Use Schedule C Publication 334 Tax Year 2022. You can find the IRS website, irs.gov, irs.gov. We're focused on line one income. Remember in the first half of the income tax formula is in essence an income statement. However, just an outline of scaffolding other forms and schedules, rolling in, flowing into these line items. That being or one being the Schedule C, business income having in essence an income statement in and of itself, business income minus business expenses. The net then rolling in from Schedule C to line one income of our income tax formula. This is the Form 1040. We're focused down here on Line 8. The Schedule C would flow into the Schedule 1, which would flow into Line 8 of the Form 1040. This is a Schedule C profit or loss from business where we can see the income statement formats of income minus the expenses. Okay, we're focused on the income side of things for the Schedule C business income. We talked about the things that are included in income because in noting that from the IRS perspective, they think of everything as in essence income unless there's an exception from it having to be included in income. So when we think about income, oftentimes the questions are, is this something that is income? Is it exempt from income? If it is income, is it going to be business income? Something that's going to be on the Schedule C or possibly income that needs to be reported in some other location? Now we want to think about those items that are not income. The exceptions to the rules, the ones that the IRS are going to say there's some kind of exemption too. So items that are not income. In some cases, the property or money you receive is not income. So we have appreciation, increases in value of your property are not income until you realize the increases through a sale or other taxable disposition. So when property value, for example, real estate is a common property value situation where over time it's not going to go down in value, but hopefully go up in value which is different from most other business property that you will have because most of the other business property is likely equipment. Equipment will generally go down in value. It will depreciate in value as there's wear and tear on the equipment. Buildings in real estate then could go up in value. The building still has wear and tear, of course, but just the value of the property could go up. And then the question is, well, if something goes up in value, do I have to record that as income? And the general rule is not until you realize the increase in the value, meaning you actually sell it and at that point in time you've realized you've gotten the actual money or equivalent something other than money in payment for it. And part of the rationale for that kind of accounting method would be that if, say, a building goes up in value, for example, if you don't realize it by selling it, then you haven't really actualized. We don't really know exactly how much the building went up in value for and it could go back down with market swings as market swings basically go up and down. If they charged you the income when the building or asset went up in value, then they would be charging you income when you didn't actually get any money for it. And that could result in situations you can imagine where someone has a tax bill that they can't pay because they charged them taxes on income that went up that they didn't actually realize so they don't have the actual money because they didn't sell the asset in order to pay the taxes and that's not the situation that we want to see. Also, of course, the increases and decreases in the value of property are just estimates. If we see something like a building, it's unique in nature. There's no other building that's exactly the same. We could try to estimate what the value of the building is, but until you actually sell it, we don't really know what the value is. Alright, you've got consignments. Consignments are merchandise to others to sell for you are not sales. So the title of merchandise remains with you, the consignor, even if their consignee possesses the merchandise. So this is a situation where you have inventory, but you're going to give your inventory basically to someone else, not for them to own and then resell as their inventory, but in essence you still own it as the inventory. So like artwork, for example, if you were to give that to a museum or give it to even like a restaurant or something for them to display, but you still own it because you're basically using that facility, that area to demonstrate it for sales. So they're going to try to facilitate a sale in that way, then that's the situation. So therefore, if the ship goods on consignment, you have no profit or loss until the consignee sells the merchandise because they're selling it in essence on your behalf. Merchandise, you have shipped out on consignment is included in your inventory until it is sold. So even though it's not in your warehouse, it's in another restaurant or a museum, it's still in essence your inventory because they're acting as kind of like your store for you to sell the merchandise on your behalf in essence, taking a fee of course for that. Do not include merchandise you receive on consignment in your inventory. Include your profit or commission on merchandise consigned to you and your income when you sell the merchandise or you receive your profit or commission depending upon the method of accounting you use. In other words, if you're the one that's receiving someone else's inventory and you're the one that's going to be selling it on consignment, then again, it's not your inventory in that case. If I have a restaurant and I'm going to display paintings in the restaurant that someone else owns, then I don't really own the paintings in that case. I'm trying to sell them by displaying them possibly in a museum or whatever, something like that. Okay, so construction allowance. If you enter into a lease after August 5th, 1997, you can exclude from income the construction allowance you receive in cash or as rent reduction from your landlord if you receive it under both the following conditions. So under a short-term lease of retail space for the purpose of constructing or improving qualified long-term real property for use in your business at that retail space. That's a pretty special kind of situation for a special industry.


So guys I am back with another Diablo 4 video and today guys I bring you something utterly broken This will allow you to farm an event infinite amount of times infinite obels infinite loot infinite xp This is an explode. See it's going to be nerfed. You may want to take advantage of this while you can How's it going guys? My name is DPJ and if you do enjoy the video Living a like really helps out and if you like what you see and want to see more be sure to subscribe Okay, so this takes place in this area right here on the map this area here guys There's always well nine times out of 10. There is an event going on here So it's right by this town right here guys Azuda in dry steps. So come here make your way down to here Now if there isn't an event here simply run into this dungeon and come back out that's what I did Um, but yeah, it works a treat. Then all you do when she's done the event like I've done now You simply just teleport out. Now. I'll give you a live run through this so I can Demonstrate to you it actually working and it works unbelievably If there's more than one person here too, it takes no time whatsoever So I've teleported to my turn. What I do is I'll wait about five to ten seconds and then simply go back into that teleporter Simple as that guys and nine times out of ten when you get back there There's going to be an event if there ain't simply go back to your turn and come back. What this is doing is It's loading you into a different instance as you can see right here guys. There is an event Hold your ground. That's it another event right here. So we'll do this. There's more than one person here So be quick be quicker I build I don't know if you're watching any more of my videos people or if you're new around here But my build's coming along quite good now. I've got a couple more bits to add to it But if you don't know I respect level 63 Just skipped just just dropped everything I had my build was based around minions the golem Dropped all of them sacrificed all of them and I'm working on so I'm real good. It's real good to be honest. I can do nightmare dungeons that are eight nine levels above me So yeah, it's all right. Swimming them combos together once you get them together. It's brutal It really is brutal So what we're gonna do, obviously we're just taking out this event Most of the time for me, it's normally just slay your enemies, which Is probably one of the longer ones if I'm honest with you, but it still doesn't matter. It's still an event. It's still Infinite enemies. It's still tons of XP. It's still oboes like you cannot imagine. It's It's ridiculous guys. It really is It's ridiculous Okay, so this should be done soon. I think the killer of these and we should have maybe a boss. I don't know I've got to protect the survivors Yeah, I normally fail these all the time. I normally fail these all the time. Okay, so the chest is there Grab the chest grab the gold grab every one out of it. I can't pick up nothing else From here guys, you simply just press down on your dpd to play on console So you fast travel to your the town From here you simply just wait five to ten seconds Just wait five to ten seconds just wait And nine times out of ten guys when you go back through that teleporter that event will be Very again for you to do Because wait what's actually happening here? You're joining a different instance It's like if you ever played destiny when you run out of the area and run back in it's sort of like that That's the sort of thing that's going down here. So if there isn't an event here What is an event here? But if there isn't one what I do is like I said, I'd run into that dungeon and quickly run back out or you can fast travel back to town And come back or create the game that should work too There's always going to load you into a different instance. Like I said this area nine times out of 10 I've been doing this for quite a while now I already spent two stashes full of these obels This this fence always here. It's literally always here. Like I said that one time it isn't here I've run into that dungeon and come out. It's here Or I create the game come back. It's here Or you go to your fast travel to your nearest town Come back. It's here It's absolute madness. Again, this is definitely an exploit. This will give you Tons of XP. I mean I'm doing this solo here. I'm just taking my time a bit Yeah, I'm not even trying to be honest. I'm not impressed with my combo, right? I'm just failing hardcore just trying to demonstrate to you how this works, but hey Okay, so a quick demonstration on the combo if I can get to be honest I need more ads than that So I sting him chop him string him Chop him and then explode him and that's Basically it and the more I bang the more it stacks the more damage is there And I've also got an escape if I'm about to get collect which happens a lot on a necromancer to be playing a necromancer It's actually why I sacrificed my golem and my my summons. My summons are utterly useless I was spending more time Actually just summoning them they kept dying. Our golem was good up until about level 55 60 no matter what I did He just was poor was kept dying and it's just Doom I'm not in you can do way better things in my opinion with them sacrificed with a hay Right, okay, so this is going to be done soon Okay, so it's over. Where's that chest that chest is there let's grab it Now I've got a sacred ring. I'm gonna drop I can pick it up Nothing can I say I want really We'll just grab what we can but we can't grab nothing there we go. Okay, so from here Fast travel back to town It's as easy as this This is as easy as this And I get like I said you wait five or ten seconds Um, this is what I figured anyway. I mean when I went straight back in it. It wasn't normally there But I wait five or ten seconds Do a quick of a little bit of a dance, you know Then go back in And again if he isn't there You can just come back through the teleporter waiting for five or ten seconds Or go to the dungeon and come out or you can quit out your game Quitting out your game was probably a little longer. You can see here the events right back here again And this is me doing this alive. This isn't me skipping anything.  Um, so yeah Please said we'll no doubt take this out again And to be honest, I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised.  What am I talking about?  It's a different instance either way But you guys get the gist of how this worked. It's utterly unbelievable It's a great great file for xp. If you're playing on world tier four, it's probably going to be a little harder Obviously depending on your build and that I guess you can still do it better loot Better good shoes And it just makes sense.  I couldn't do that when I come outside I can almost do it now. But like I said, I'm only level 67. My build isn't Anywhere near fully complete yet So yeah, I've got so many obu sitting here so many obu sitting. I'm gonna go spend these But yes guys, this is crazy. Take advantage of it while you can. It's utterly unbelievable I'm just gonna quickly go straight back into the teleport and I'd see if it does work like that But for me, it wasn't earlier. Don't know why but we'll try it. Let's just go straight back in It could work straight away But again, every time I've waited five to ten seconds has always been there when I've come straight back through It hasn't always been there So yeah, well he's back here. So there you go.  I want to see more Diablo 4. Be sure to subscribe and hopefully guys I will see you on that next one


We're going USB-C going forward. Uh, Apple talked a lot about how if you've got a variety of Apple devices, this makes, you know, data transfer between everything that much easier. Okay. Now I'm going to be a weirdo right now. I don't have an issue with lightning in general. I understand why people want USB-C. This was not something I was like jumping up and down, sharing about, but maybe I'm missing something. They started with, you know, USB-C back on the iPad Pro. So, you know, then you got more devices using it to me. It's just a natural flow of progression to get everything on USB-C. Then add into what's going on with Europe and then forcing the USB-C on the iPhones. It to me, it was inevitable and it was naturally going to come at some point.


Stakeholder engagement is essential for the success of any research project. It helps ensure that the research is relevant and meaningful to those who will be affected by the findings. When done properly, stakeholder engagement can also increase the likelihood of positive outcomes from the research. However, when not done carefully, stakeholder engagement can lead to negative consequences such as distrust or even sabotage of the research. Therefore, it is important to understand the science behind stakeholder engagement and how to apply it effectively. This article was authored by Paul Meissner, Linda B. Kotler, Milton Micheada and others.


I have something to say to those who see themselves as revivalists in Islam today and others call them fundamentalists. The problem with fundamentalists is when they argue about a very literal, extreme, fundamentalist type of Islam, it becomes a cult-like mindset. And typically, when you look at these extreme groups, they have one leader that they look up to as the only person they're going to listen to. They put on blinkers and their narrative and truth will only come from this person. Whatever he tells us to do, we will only listen to him. We will not listen to anyone else unless he tells us to listen to him. And so, when you take the idea of only one man as your group leader, whether you are Shia or Sunni, it becomes dangerous. I spoke last night of Sheikh Ahmad Ahsai. Sheikh Ahmad Ahsai was not just a Sayyid or a Sheikh. He was a Mujtahid, but he mislaid an entire group of people. Thousands, right? So, you look at the Wahhabi movement. It rests on Ibn Taymiyyah and Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab. If we are not careful, and if you as a Shia or a Sunni find yourself in this position where you follow a small group that insulates it from society and follows and listens to just one individual and he is your only source of truth, then you have taken an extreme view and become a fundamentalist even if it is not violent and that will not lead to any good. When you look at the history of such groups, what you will see is that one individual who is the charismatic leader will eventually either leave or die. When he dies, he will be succeeded by another leader who will not be as charismatic. He will be 50 to 60% as charismatic. And when he dies, then the following one will be even less and eventually the group will be rift with scandals, with misappropriation of wealth, with all sorts of problems. And it will be a misguided group. So these sort of things have not come from the Ahlul Bayt, particularly for Shias there is absolutely no room for this sort of an extreme mindset. The Ahlul Bayt are the only ones that we would follow with that level of subservience but not following an ordinary human being with that sort of an idea that only his opinion and you know, he is our leader. Now I want to say something to the modernists who see themselves as reformists. The Quran praises Akal and it says in the Quran in many places that we are relating this signs for Ulil al-Bab for those who have intellect. Many, many, many verses. It invites people to reflect and ponder on its verses. But the problem with relying on your intellect alone is that the mind is prone to providing multiple perspectives and it can fall prey to analogies even if it's reading and even when it reads and tries to understand divine scripture. Now to avoid man's intellect taking the wrong path the Quran tries to explain the same concept multiple times in different places. So one of the ways you can resolve whether your mind is interpreting the Quran right is by taking a holistic understanding of the Quran and seeing whether there is any contradiction in your understanding of a particular verse. But man's intellect is only a guide. The scripture must continue to mentor the intellect of man to make sure he is thinking a right and to avoid any diversions and pitfalls. If we say the power of intellect has to stay subservient to scripture, to Quran it is only because it is the Quran which will anchor the Akal towards Allah. Man can sail to new heights of spiritual realizations through the ship of the intellect and can avoid the danger of drifting away from the right path to where Allah is to be found but it must always be anchored and harnessed by the Quran and the authentic Ahadith. Now these Ahadith of course must concur with what the true guides have taught. So what we are saying here is that your Akal can be your ship but your compass has to be the Quran. It must guide and be the yardstick that guides us in deciding what is right and being wrong. A lot of times what we are seeing in our community is that this idea of a reformer is that I will listen to all the different opinions I can get from people in my community and then I will decide and pick and choose what makes sense to me. That is absolutely the wrong way to go about it. What we first need to do is understand what is the original teaching of Islam. What is it that the Quran and Hadith actually says and not simply arrogantly assume that just because I don't understand Arabic there is nothing in the 14 centuries of knowledge that has been passed down in my faith that is worth a second look. So we can't just use our Akal and look at the Quran high level and read an English translation and then come up with theories of how the community needs to reform and move forward. There is no room for this sort of free thinking and as we said yesterday there are labels from other belief systems that are thrown at us like justice, human rights and you are put on the defensive to defend these things. Are Muslims just? Do Muslims give women their rights? And you are now trying to defend this in a free thinking manner using your own understanding and just what you can read in English of the Quran and a few books of your choice. Now look at the reformers before you. We mentioned some before. Why have past reformers failed and why have some succeeded? If you look at reformers who succeeded like Ayatollah Khomeini for example and you look at reformers who failed, what is the difference? You will see that the reformers who failed where they went wrong is they were trying to ask for reform in a vacuum. They were using their own thinking and a few books they have read and then proposing change. The whole Shia argument is that whatever you propose as reform and original or orthodox Islam, it must prove itself as to how it connects to Allah and Rasool and Quran and the Imams. If you cannot show us that connectivity then it doesn't give us that conviction that your reform has any validity in Islam. And so when we emphasize the need to follow the Ulama, the traditional Ulama, the Maraji, it is because they have that connection. They have devoted their lives to studying the teachings of the Imams and through them then we have an understanding of what the Imams taught and what the Prophet taught and what Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. It is not this idea that we have this sort of pseudo-intellectualism and we just now love to talk about spirituality and philosophy and Sharia is not important to us. We downplay the Sharia and now we are big in talking about how we need to change as a community and how Islam needs to improve. Think about this for a moment. Why did I take the trouble over these 12 nights to talk about the Ali Khilafat and talk about the Sahaba and talk about Bukhari and Muslim? I could have just gone and talked about present Muslims. The reason I did this is because before I can suggest any changes to our Sunni brothers and sisters, I first had to convince them that the condition that the Muslim community is in now, how does it come about and how does it relate to what was originally taught by Allah and His Messenger. It is only when I was able to show that connectivity, that relevance to history and how it evolved that now some of them might look back and realize and say, well, that makes sense. So that history and that hierarchy and connection is very, very important. Reform is not a problem in itself. In fact, reform cannot be rejected. If we reject reform only because we are afraid it will dilute our faith, then we will stagnate as a community and we will become fundamentalists. The solution however lies, the problem however is not in what we say should reform, but how we go about the reform process. How do we ensure that the reforms we are proposing in our community will not lead to deviation, to isolation and to serious consequences. And this is only possible when we are able to push reform while staying faithful to the original teachings of our faith, to what the imams taught us, to what these custodians and ulama are giving us as the teachings of the imam and the Ahlu al-Bayt, alaym wa s-salam. Unless we are firmly rooted in that, we will not be able to propose any meaningful changes as reforms.


d bar s, and suppose f of s is compactly supported between minus 1 and 1. If this is an L1 function on the interval from minus 1 to 1, this behaves like 1 over z, which does not belong to L1. So it's obvious. It does belong to weak L1, but let me not go there. OK. Now, the next thing is, as I mentioned, and as we draw on the board, we're not just interested in Riemann-Hilbert problems where the contour is the line. We're interested in Riemann-Hilbert problems on contours, which have points of self-intersection. There can be many of them. They can be disconnected, and so on. So we would certainly want something like the following. Suppose this is the contour, the part of the contour here, which is sigma 1. And this is the part of the contour, which is sigma 2. What we'd like to have, so the integration is taking place over sigma, we would like, for example, let's suppose that this vector f here, this function f here, is just supported on sigma 1. And let's take z now to belong to sigma 2. So I've got this picture here, like this. z is sitting here, and f is supported here. If this operator there is going to be bounded in LP on this contour, we would certainly need to know that if I look at f of z on sigma 2, this should be bounded, or this is cf on sigma 2, should be bounded by f on sigma 1. That would be a consequence of my hope that the operator c is in fact bounded on the whole contour. Now there's a very nice calculation which one can make again using Fourier theory, but now using Fourier theory of the multiplicative group on the positive numbers, which is the same thing as the Mellon transform. And so it's a very nice exercise to show the following, just to give you a flavor of it. Take the line 0 infinity, and take a line here going off at an angle theta.  So I'm just computing this object where sigma 1 is the real line, the positive real line, and sigma 2 is the real half line going off at an angle theta. Then you treat this as a group, a multiplicative group, with a Fourier transform which is given by the Mellon transform. That will diagonalize this operator here, just as the ordinary Fourier transform diagonalized because you operate on the line. That will turn your operator here into a multiplication operator. And what you find is that c theta f in L2 is less than or d r, some constant in theta if an L2 of s. And again, you can turn this into instead of 2, you can put an LP here by other kinds of arguments. But I just wanted to give you this as more or less as an exercise and use Mellon transform. This gives you a little bit of the flavor. Now why are how the many ways that this is useful? So let me give you an application of this which begins to take us towards the question of in what sense do we achieve boundary values? And when will those boundary values, when will the function not just have boundary values but when will it be continuous up to the boundary? So observe the following. Suppose f belongs to h1 of the real line. So that is f in L2, f prime in L2. Well, this is the distribution derivative of f. And suppose I take the derivative of d by dz of cr of f of z.  So I can put the derivative on the z. I can transfer it over to the s. I can integrate by parts.  So this is just cr of f prime. Now why is this useful? Consider the following. Let me take, and what we know then, suppose I've got two points, z prime and z double prime in the upper half plane. Then I can draw a line through them going through some point to which I'm going to call the point 0. So now I've got an angle theta here and an angle pi minus theta over here. And suppose I want to look at cf at z prime minus cf at z double prime. So that will be the integral from 0 to infinity of f of s ds of s minus z. Or let me first of all take it like this. OK, so let me do this calculation better. So this will be the integral over this line from z double prime to z prime of d by dz of cf of z dz just by integrating along. But this object here, if I now take absolute values, will be bounded by z prime to z double prime to the half times the integral along this entire line from 0 to infinity, say, of d by dz of cf squared dz to the power half by the Schwarz inequality. But this object here is going to be bounded double prime of 1 half f prime on L2 of r because of this fact here. If I look at the derivative of this object here, it's the Fourier transform of an L2 function. So what that means is that this object over here on this line given by there is going to be bounded by the L2 norm of this function here. So I've got my function defined here and everywhere in here. It has an h1. It's an h1. It has a derivative. So that means that if I take cf of that function, it will give me a function over here which has a derivative in L2. So I get that bound. And so what's the conclusion from here? Is that a priori, a priori, the function cf in the upper half line is uniformly and globally holder half. In particular, it has boundary values in the continuous boundary values. OK, so that's a little bit about how boundary values arise. Now, so I have gone through this to just give you some sense of what you can pick up from a first course in complex analysis or theory of bounded analytic function. So now we begin to get to the real stuff. So a composed curve is a finite union of arcs in the closed in the Riemann sphere, which can intersect only at their end points, things like this. And an arc, let's call arc gamma, is phi of t, where t runs from, say, a to b, and is homeomorphism on its from the interval onto the arc. Now, we allow for arcs to go through in infinity, and you use the usual topology on the sphere to control that.  So we always are going to be look at a composed curve. Because they are given in this particular fashion, they are automatically oriented. They come with an automatic orientation, which is prescribed by the parameterization. Now, again, in this picture, we think of a circle, say, as being a composed curve, because we always think of it as a union of two arcs. That's convenient. So the first question having said what we have, so these are going to be the curves we do Riemann Hilbert theory on. So what do we mean by LP? It's the first question. So what we do is we introduce arc length. Suppose I've got some simple contours, a simple arc sigma. And I've got a succession of points, C0, Z1, all the way up to Zn. These points have an ordering which is induced by the parameterization. And we look at the quantity of Z0, Zn. For any choice, any partition of the curve as being the supremum over all partitions of the sum of Zi plus 1 minus Zi from 1 up to n. And if this quantity is finite, we say that the curve is rectifiable. And we're going to be interested in composed curves which are locally rectifiable, which means that if I take my contour sigma and intersect it with any ball, say Z is less than r, then the intersection of sigma with r must be rectifiable. So that means you could have, here's my ball. And I look at the curve going around like this with different pieces like this. When I intersect with the ball, I'm going to get a countable number of arcs. And I want each of those arcs to be rectifiable and their sum to be finite in any ball. So the first definition is we're going to look at Riemann-Hilbert problems on contours which are composed curves and which are locally rectifiable. Now, for a rectifiable or locally rectifiable curve, we can introduce arc lengths. For example, mu i of this interval is just to be the length from alpha to beta. Curve goes from L. Now, things are very similar to just the construction of the Bayek measure. And such sets, semi-open intervals form a semi-algebra. And hence, by the usual extension theory, you obtain a complete measure on a sigma algebra which contains the Borel subsets of that contour. In that way, you get a measure theory and you get a measure which enables you to integrate on each one of these curves. So then you've got an LP theory. So you get this immediately implies. We have semi-algebra, which implies a measure on a sigma algebra, and algebra, et cetera. So all of this is a standard construction. And then you get LP theory, which would be measurable functions with respect to that measure, with respect to that sigma algebra. And you take the LP integral of that finite and so on. It's absolutely analogous to what's going on. Just to remark, this is a little exercise. d mu is equivalent to a Hausdorff one measure. If you were thinking about it, so you can also put measure on the curves by regarding and by defining a Hausdorff one measure, it's exactly the same quantity that you get. OK. Now, we come to, and once you have this, you can define CH on your contour of Z as being integral of f of s ds upon s minus z over the contour. And the reason that you can do this now is that you take your parametrization of the curve, so s of sum t, you substitute it in here, and then you end up with an integral with respect to the arc measure. So this is the usual way in calculus where you have line integrals, which are expressed in terms of some parametrized integration. So all the natural things you can do with respect to these curves because you have a measure on these curves, you can integrate, you can have line integrals. Now comes to the most important thing of all. We want to be sure that this operator here has got all the properties that we saw that the Cauchy transform had when we're just looking at the Cauchy transform on the real line. Do we need to assume anything else about the contour sigma in order to conclude that? Well, we'll have that C plus minus C plus f at Z equals C minus C f at Z is equal to f of Z. Can't turn any f belonging to Lp, where p now is bigger than 1 and less than 1. Notice we include 1. This still remains true. And similarly for the Hilbert transform. But what's missing so far, although that exists as a point-wise limit, so let me just take a step back, skipped over something. Just on the assumption that the curve is rectifiable or locally rectifiable, you know the following. That because it's rectifiable, at almost every point there'll be a tangent vector at almost every point, which means you have a normal and which means you have a cones. And this object here will have boundary values almost everywhere, which are non-tangential. And this is true for all p bigger or equal to 1 and less than infinity. So that part of the theory, so we have non-tangential boundary values, boundary values almost everywhere for f belonging to Lp, p bigger than 1 and less than infinity, as just as long as the contour sigma is locally rectifiable. So this much of the theory goes through completely in this way. And you get C plus minus C minus. What you don't know at this point is that the operator C plus and C minus are bounded in any function space. Now, there is an absolutely remarkable theorem in analysis, which in many people's view is one of the major achievements of the latter part of the 19th, of the 20th century in analysis. And that is there are necessary and sufficient conditions on a rectifiable contour in order that C plus and C minus and hence the Hilbert transform. Again, you'll have C plus. Minus will be plus or minus a half f plus i times the Hilbert transform of f.  And this isn't the integral over the contour, so it's exactly the analog of what you'd expect. But now let me repeat that again. What we don't know is that the Hilbert transform of C plus or C minus is a bounded operator in LP. And there is a theorem which begins with Corke-Colderon in the 1950s, 1960s, then was developed by many people, Kofman, Mayer and McIntosh, and then eventually put in its final form by Guy David, which gives necessary and sufficient conditions, necessary plus sufficient conditions on C plus minus or h to be in the bounded operators in LP. So what are those conditions? So you take your contour. You take a point z. And you take a ball of radius r. And you intersect the ball of radius r upon z with the contour. So let me expand it out a bit. And here's the point z. Here's the ball. And your contour goes around like this and comes out like this.  And you compute the arc length of what there is in there. And you divide by r. And you take a soup of r positive and all z in the contour. And you call that the quantity c gamma. And the theorem is this remarkable theorem is that C plus minus or h are in LP, bounded operators in LP, if and only if c gamma is finite. Remarkable theorem. Moreover, you can show that c gamma has a form looking like this, phi p of the bound. Suppose we have, let me write it like this, that hf in p is bounded by cp times f in LP. And cp will have the form phi p of c gamma, where phi p is a function which goes to zero and some continuous function like this, which is independent of all contours. It's an a priori function. So this is a marvelously useful formula, because as we hinted at, early on, the steepest ascent method operates by deforming contours. So what's going to change as you change the contours is going to be this. But as long as these numbers remain finite, you're going to retain this bound. Theorem is this, if c gamma is finite, then the operator h, for example, is bounded in L2. And then by some kind of method, we saw interpolation and things like this, you know it's going to be true for all LP bigger than 1. Conversely, if the Hilbert transform is bounded in L2 or in any fixed LP, it's bounded in all LP bigger than 1, and c gamma is finite. So let me just finish with the following remark. Here's an example. Take the contour y equals x squared, 0. This goes to 1. This goes to the point 1, 1. Take such a contour. As an exercise, I suggest it's obvious from here that c gamma is finite. And therefore, h belongs to the bounded operator, say, in L2. Prove that the operator is a bounded operator in L2 directly without this theorem. And you see that the effect of this cuspia is very non-trivial from the analytic point of view. So if you want to get something of the depth of the theorem, just work out this one example. Finish off with the following comment. A Riemann-Hilbert problem is going to be something which takes place on an oriented, composed contour. Each of whose arcs have a finite c gamma, and such arcs are called carloson curves. So Riemann-Hilbert problems take place naturally on composed curves. Each of whose arcs is a carloson curve. OK, thank you. Any quick question for Percy? Yes, no? No. So let's thank Percy again. Bravo. Thank you for this question. Sure.


Okay, now we know about data management, we know about data publishing, we know about data education for librarians. Now let's get to the services and the tools, things that we can use to do all that. We'll first talk about Zenodo, a new, innovative service for sharing all research outputs and it's Lars Holm Nielsen, partner in OpenAir and working as a software engineer at CERN in Geneva, who will talk about this. He operates Zenodo at CERN and it's an innovative service for sharing multidisciplinary research results. He was previously, he was previously web advanced projects coordinator at the European Southern Observatory working on public outreach information management and public friendly astronomy imagery. He played a key role in development and implementation of the astronomy visualization metadata standard, enabling seamless interoperability and reuse of astronomy outreach images from the largest observatories in the world. Tell us more about Zenodo. Okay, thank you for allowing me to present here today, so I'm happy to present Zenodo to you, but before I tell you about all the wonderful things that Zenodo can can do for you, I'll take a step back because actually Zenodo is just a heavily rebranded version of the OpenAir orphan record repository. This is how the old repository looks like and if you didn't have subject-based institutional repository to deposit your EU funded publications in, you could always go to this orphanage and it did feel and and looked a bit like an orphanage. It provided all you features for home, but it did feel like an orphanage. So one of the first things we decided to change was the name and it wasn't easy. You need a unique name. You need a domain name. Available domain name is nowadays pretty hard to find and you need consensus in OpenAir Plus. So some of you may have remembered I presented in November a new service called SharedResearch.eu. This is now Zenodo. So short story long, long story short. Zenodo comes from Zenodotus who was the first librarian of the Asian Library of Alexandria and father of the first recorded use of metadata, so we thought it was a good story behind. So Zenodo is a repository service for sharing any kind of research output you may have. As you can see it's got a heavily updated layout. So nowadays you probably discard a repository if it doesn't have the right features you you actually need, but if the design and the user interface doesn't look nice you will not even know about the features. So this is an important component. So what are some of the features that we actually have? Well we provide a matrix from a matrix.com article-level matrix so you can see how many people tweeted about it, how many readers are on Mendeley and and the like. Also we provide a DOI for all uploads and if you want you can connect all the info, you can connect your uploads with funding information. We take then care of exporting everything to OpenAir and you can then view your publications in Codes and so forth. Also we know how to implement the OpenAir guidelines so if you don't want to to deal with this part of it we take care of it for you. So if you want to deposit in Sonodo it's very simple either you can choose to do it via Dropbox. We simply use the CERN bandwidth to download your files from Dropbox if you allow it or you can upload straight from your own computer. At the moment we have a file size limit of 1 gigabyte per file. This is somewhat arbitrary set until we know have some experiences. One thing is for sure we're not going to lower it but at least we have tested the infrastructure so far up to 10 gigabyte files. We don't have any quotas at the moment on how much data you can upload so you could in principle start uploading terabytes of data. In the future this will likely change but at the moment we are gaining some experiences. So once you've uploaded your file you have to fill in some metadata. In the future we hope to discover most of the metadata so you can focus on actually validating and don't have to type into the forms. This will work for publications hopefully and then we try to extend it. So the types of things you can deposit we currently have publications, posters, presentations, dataset, image, video so anything you would want to share on Synodo research related you you can't share. What we have to say though is that we focused on the long tail of research so if you start storing terabytes, better bytes of data in Synodo then we'll probably contact you and start working with you to find a proper subject-based repository for your research. Another important thing is that we require everyone to specify the access right of the information of the of the uploads. At the moment we provide open access and barcode access and closed access so we strongly encourage everybody to deposit as open access and if you anyway deposit as closed access then we basically hide your your records as much as possible you could get get ranked lower. It's not only because it's closed access and we don't like it that much but it's also for the end user that they can download the actual file so there's not so much for them for them to come for. For all open access contents you can also specify a license. We will pre-select some licenses for you but we also support more than creative comments. It's up to you how you deposit it. When you then hit the submit button up here we immediately put your upload into Synodo. It takes roughly five minutes before it's integrated into search result. It doesn't go on the front page or things like that before I've had a look at it but you can actually view your record inside Synodo within five minutes. If you like you can also pre-reserve a DUI so that you can include this DUI in text if you have an article somewhere and you want to cite your data set you can actually upload to Synodo pre-reserve the DUI and include it in your article. So this is really all research shared so we don't restrict data formats you can you can put upload that you can upload so what about preservation? So we believe that one at the moment it's one of the big obstacles to data sharing is that it takes a lot of time it's not easy so at the moment we're trying to lower the barrier to make it as easy as possible for for researchers to deposit their thing instead of not depositing at all. A second point is that I forgot it now. Let me instead tell you what we intended to do so we intended to take a path of encouragement instead so we intend to take provide tools and services that works if you deposit in a preservation friendly format so that you somehow encourage the researchers to actually deposit it in a proper way. Yeah so also what about quality? Since you can deposit on Synodo and everything goes online immediately how do we somehow control that? So the job we do at CERN is that we'll check all content for spam so if you upload a Hollywood movie and you are not the studio who have the copyright to it and it's a copyright infringement then we'll remove it. However we do not want to be the curators of Synodo. We want you to be the curators so we have these communities which is basically your area where you can control what goes in. You create a collection community and you get to accept the reject whatever goes into it so everybody can upload to your community but you get to press the accept or reject button. Also whatever is in your collection you can actually harvest so if you have an institutional repository or if you have an institutional repository you can harvest all the content from Synodo and put it in your own repository or if you just want the metadata and let us store your data that's also a possibility. So one use case we have is the Harvard Center for Astronomy Library. They want to deposit gray literature in Synodo and have the NASA Astrophysics DASA system to then harvest the gray literature and since NASA ADS know that it's who the curator is of this collection they can trust to say okay we harvest harvest everything here. For you as librarians you can create your own data repository in a matter of nearly less than a minute. We provide the service for you to do it naturally there are some kind some restrictions in the ways Synodo works but it's a very low entry requirement for you to get started with data management. For publishers you can create a community for journal to store data related to your articles. If you're an EU project you can store your presentation deliverables so forth. If you're a workshop you can deposit your posters and presentations and you get a DUI and we take care of the preservation. As mentioned it's very easy to create a community you just have to sign up press the new button fill a title and a description and you are off. So under the hood of Synodo is a piece of software called Envinio that we developed as CERN. It's running the CERN documents server that inspire HEP repository and NASA ADS archive and others in the process of migrating to this repository. It's been battle tested in events like the Higgs boson and have very fine grained access control access level control. Synodo is also running in the CERN data center and at the current levels it is really ignitable compared to some of our other computing requirements and it's gonna have to to get a lot of attention before it starts not being a client. So what about the sustainability so we just launched the the 8th of May and you might have doubts about if we're gonna survive more than May 31st 2014 when OpenAir Plus ends. So I won't go too much into details about funding right now. There's other people in OpenAir Plus that works on that. However what we do and what I think is important for you today is that we do guarantee that whatever goes into Synodo will be preserved. So if and really really worst case if Synodo at some point has to close down we will transfer all all data to other repositories and make sure that it's preserved for the future. So some of the next steps that we're working on here in the near future is that we'll add at other features like authentication via OpenAir or your Twitter account or ORCID and things like that. We'll make it easier to edit your your depositions. Also we'll add possibilities to have sub collections in your communities. I know that that would be very welcome for librarians but I think most of all we want you to give us feedback try to use it and give us feedback for what kind of features you actually need whereas the areas where we are not so strong yet and help shape the future of Synodo. Thank you very much. Okay thank you Lars. Any questions on the... Yes you showed that you can upload all kinds of material Synodo. Is it possible to link these together? Yes so in the upload form you have a place where you can put in related identifier so at the moment we support the UIs so you can link your data set in your article and this information gets exported in a machine readable way and it gets exported to OpenAir and we might even start dragging back information from OpenAir where there's projects where they're linking articles and data. Anything else? I think I heard you say that licenses are pre-selected. Could you explain that a little bit more as the authors or people are depositing? Yes that's a pre-selected at the moment. So at the moment it will pre-select Creative Commons CC0 in a matter of a day or two. It will also if you do a publication actually do creative comments for publications. So if I'm a researcher what advice would I get? When would I go from my data to Synodo or when would I go to Dryad? You said why would I go to Dryad? When I think you're free to choose so hopefully that's I hope you go to Synodo and I'm sure you hope you go to Dryad. So the obvious toy for Dryad would be when you deposit for a journal where Dryad has some requirements and all peer reviewed if you go to Dryad it has to be peer reviewed material. So basically everything else you can deposit with us. You're also welcome to deposit peer reviewed material with us. That's not a question but I think it's good to have several choices. There's also other choices than Synodo and Dryad. So thank you for your presentation. Moving on to the last presentation of today before we have the panel later.


dreams and are committed to helping you pursue yours. I'm Madeline and today I have the privilege of interviewing Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yellich. Alright Christian, so we have some fun planned for us in the next 20 minutes. We are going to have questions and each question is going to represent an inning. How does that sound? Sounds good. Let's do it. Awesome. So like every time I have a warm-up, so I have a warm-up question for you just to get you thinking about teamwork. So our warm-up question is, when you think about teamwork what are words that come to mind? I don't know if I have specific words. I mean there's a few specific words for teamwork, but teamwork to me is like a sentence of people, everybody working together to accomplish a common goal. I guess is how I would describe teamwork. I don't know if there's a certain word for that, but that's how I would describe it. Awesome. Alright, are you ready for the first inning? Perfect. What have you learned from teams you have been a part of? Any lessons or values that you have to share? Well the most successful teams that I've been a part of usually work together good as a group. Everybody tends to get along. There's good leadership and that goes on down from the top to the bottom of the team and I think to work your best and to be the most successful. That's how it has to be. Awesome. Do you have any, no that's awesome. So we're on the second inning, sorry. Second inning, thinking outside of baseball, how have non-traditional teams like family and friends shaped your idea of teamwork? They've been supportive throughout my life. There's a lot that goes into a career like the one that I've gone down that path. It's not as smooth sailing as it seems these days. There's a lot of ups and downs and my family's been there to support me and they've been a big part of my life and I definitely wouldn't be where I am today without them. Perfect. Third inning, can you share a time when you've had to lean on your team members, traditional or non-traditional during a setback? I don't know if there's a specific instance but I mean there's a lot of adversity that you go through as an athlete or just as a person in life who's just going through the ups and downs of getting older and experiencing new things over the course of life and mine's been my family and my brothers, close friends and just being able to talk to people that you've known for a really long time that you trust and that have been there with you from the beginning. So yeah, that'd probably be my answer on that one. Do you have any kind of fun stories before you were even outside of sports where you're thinking of something that like your friends really helped you get through? Like personally for mine I like just think of my like high school friends getting me through that like bio test that was like just a hope and prayer. So they like came over and made flashcards and things like that. Do you have anything outside of sports or just like even if it's like in the past that just kind of fun? I'm sure it's just been so long. I mean yeah I'm sure I've had a moment like that in high school where I've had friends help me get through a test and one way or another. Let me see. I don't really have any specific instance that I can draw back on or that happen. No worries. All right, we are coming up to the fourth inning. So we have a fourth inning here at Dream Bank. We believe in dreams and are committed to removing obstacles that stand in people's way. Can you share a story about when you felt fully supported by a team and how did that impact your ability to dream? Well you know there's dreams and there's goals and I think if you really want to accomplish something you need to once you identify what you want to do and what your goal is and it's different for everybody but once you identify what that is in your life then it becomes about how are you going to accomplish that and everything you need to do on a daily basis should be with that in mind and geared towards that and that's just achieved through hard work. You can't hope it happens, you can't wish it happens, you have to go out there and do it and there's ups and downs throughout the road and it's definitely not easy. There's that cliche saying that nothing worth having comes easy and I think it's true. Just having experienced it there's a lot of times where there's doubt or it seems like it's crazy or it seems like it's not going to happen and you got to be able to push through that and just make it happen. I think that's what I've learned over the course of my life and my journey so far. So during your journey do you have anyone in particular or a group of people that come to mind? Everyone on their dream pursuit journey has moments where they stumble or they hit a step back and even probably lose doubt. Do you have anyone in your life that really just always believed in you and been there for you even in those moments where you might not have believed in yourself and really just kind of was a great foundation for you? Yeah, my family and they've been there the whole time and I've leaned on them. I trust them probably more than anybody in my life and my thing was I just never really had a backup plan. My goal was to play Major League Baseball and that was it. I was confident in that goal and just was convicted in it and I went for it. I was never half in, half out or wondering if I could do it because I feel like if that's the case then you're not going to succeed. All right, so we are heading into our fifth inning. How are you holding up? Perfect. All right, fifth inning. How do you help team members when they feel uninspired, stuck or going through a tough time? Well, that's a that's I think a case by case basis. I think if somebody has something going on in their personal life or something out of their control, then you would handle that a little bit differently than if somebody was just feeling sorry for themselves or not contributing to the team out of laziness or something that they could control. In our world, in the world of sports, there's no time for that. So if you have something personal going on in your life, we're obviously we're all there for you. We're going to support you fully and help you get through that tough time. But if it's one of those cases where it's a woe is me attitude, I'm feeling sorry for myself, my effort's not where it needs to be. I'm hurting other members of the team, then either that needs to be rectified and changed immediately or in the sports world, they just get rid of you. And that's the way it is in a lot of business worlds. And it's about contributing to the team and to in order to have success, then everybody needs to have a common goal in mind and do everything in their power to get to that point. So that's kind of how I look at it and somebody that's in a leadership position, and that's how it's handled either we're all working towards a common goal, or we don't really have a use for you and wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. So taking this question off the field, whether so thinking more towards family and friends as a team. How do you support like if you're like, a family member or one of your friends, it's not necessarily a professional athlete is having a hard time.  Like especially like if it's your family, are you like, go back and jokes, making their favorite fake good? Honestly, no. I that's, I surround myself with people in the like mind. And like I said, if it's a, it's a special case, a family member passes away, or something how they're really tough time, obviously, I'm there for them on the compassion and help them get through of tough time and their choosing. And it depends on the person, you know, they're your friend or family member, so you can help them out. But I don't really like surrounding myself with with people that aren't really driven or don't share a common drive. And if they feel sorry for themselves, or they constantly need to be picked up, or I just don't, for whatever reason, I've just never related to that in my life. And it's always just been about hard work and getting through tough times and not just not feeling sorry for yourself, because nobody else really does. And obviously, I said that there is circumstances in which that doesn't apply. You need to help people out and be compassionate. But it's kind of where I stand on it. Yeah, awesome. Definitely creating a network. And like your community is a huge part of your dream success. So that makes total sense. All right, we are on to our sixth inning. How have you and your team's been agile throughout your life? And how has this come into play during social distancing? I think this is a unique time in everybody's lifetime. And just doing the best you can to stay with your family, or if you're not with your family, you find ways to hopefully keep yourself busy and pass the time and try and stay safe and keep everybody that you know safe until it's all wrapped up. I think we're all looking forward to the day where we can go back to live in a normal life. But until then, it's just been a unique time trying to watch shows, pass the time doing honestly, whatever. I think there's good and bad days, some people, you know, some days are easier than others and just get through them one day at a time. So thinking about just being agile with a team and before social distancing, was there ever a time and like I said, it doesn't have to be just your team on the field, it could be family, friends, where you've had to be like agile, as like a team or a little cohort or like pivot and kind of you had one plan and then something popped up and then you just had to kind of think on your feet and quickly come up with a new plan, whether it was on the field or in a different team setting. I can't think of a specific instance, but I think your ability to adapt and adjust in your life is important. Things don't always go according to plan and you know, there's obstacles in your life or something really good happens in your life that you didn't foresee and you need to adjust to that.  And you should have your goals in mind, but if obstacles pop up that get in the way, it's not, I guess, for lack of a better word, a death sentence on that dream or that goal. It's just an obstacle in a way that got to figure out a way to get around it. And I guess that's a situation dependent and depending on how good or bad it is, and just go from there. Awesome. So we are entering into the seventh inning. Can you tell us about a time you came into a team that was already formed? I mean, the situation that sticks out the best to me is probably when I got traded to the Brewers and didn't know anybody and came over and just trying to fit in and do my part and contribute to the good thing that they already had going on. Awesome. Well, you can't have a seventh inning without a seventh inning stretch. So this inning is a little special than the rest because I gave us a bottom of the seventh. Don't worry, I'm not going to make you sing or anything like that. You're safe. But our bottom of the seventh question is, how did the team help you feel included? I think for me, in that instance, it was, I always just felt that, you know, baseball players are a lot of the same people and we have a lot of good leadership and a lot of good human beings on the team. So honestly, after the first few days, I felt like I've been there for a really long time and that's only grown over the years. And it's a credit to ownership, the front office, council and the way they run the organization and the team from the top to the bottom. And they've done a great job in establishing that culture and it's something that, you know, we're looking forward to continuing. And then kind of turning the question on its head. When someone new is joining your team, do you do anything to try and make them feel comfortable or welcomed? I always wanted, I'll always introduce myself, welcome them to the team. And obviously, having been in a similar situation, I understand what the process was probably like or where they're feeling or what they're at at that point. And you're trying to accommodate them and make them feel as comfortable as possible so they can contribute in a positive way to the goal that we're all chasing and the quicker they feel comfortable and the quicker they feel like they can contribute, then the better off for them and for everybody else. Awesome. We're heading into our eighth inning. What is one of your greatest achievements with the team? So I know you don't really like the baseball analogies, but I think game 163 is probably my favorite accomplishment with a team for the fact that it was a goal of ours from February through October to be in that situation and everything that we did together as a group over that course of times with that goal in mind and to be able to do that together in a visiting stadium that is not always kind to visiting players and obviously everybody that's probably watching this is familiar with the Cubs, Brewer's rivalry and how it all goes down. And it's a special feeling when you accomplish a goal that you've worked really hard for and spent a lot of time chasing with the same group of people and to finally accomplish that was an amazing feeling. And it's one of my favorite life memories, not only just baseball memories, I think. That's awesome. By co-worker actually when I was making the questions, that was like the question he wanted me to ask about. So you just made his day. So that is awesome. We are heading into the ninth inning. Homestretch. So ninth inning question is American Family Insurance was excited to help with your third street market efforts to offer meals to frontline hospital workers in Milwaukee recently. Can you share a little bit about why this was something you wanted to be a part of? Yeah, well, it was originally approached. Omar, everybody that lives in Omar's probably in Milwaukee is probably familiar with Omar. He does a lot of stuff with their street market, carnivore, a lot of great things for the city of Milwaukee. And he called myself and Ryan Braun late one night and wanted to run an idea by us. And it was providing meals for the healthcare workers and the time of the COVID-19 crisis. And obviously, we're more than willing to get back. We want to support the community that supports us and we're in a position to help others. And, you know, it was an easy decision on our part. And we're very thankful that American Family shared the same vision and wanted to contribute and to help us out. And, you know, I think we're likeminded in that sense of if you're in a position to help out in a time of need that you should do so. And we're just trying to put a to smile on somebody's face who's going through a tough time right now. And obviously, everybody knows how hard the healthcare workers have been working long hours away from their families. Not exactly the safest time to be in a hospital as a doctor or nurse. So just a small token of our gratitude. Awesome. Well, we did finish the nine questions, but no game is complete without a victory left. So I have one final question for you, Christian. If you could offer one piece of advice to someone who is working towards accomplishing their dream, whether that's to be a professional baseball player, acing a test or landing their dream job, what would it be? I think enjoying the process of getting to your end goal, whatever that is, I think sometimes people are so goal oriented, and they have the blinders on. And they always just think like, Hey, once I get to this point, everything's going to be great. It'll be what I've been working for my entire life. And they don't really take in everything that's happening around them, which is a lot of great things in the process and the journey of getting to that, that point because a lot of times not an overnight success story and something that takes months, years, maybe even longer. And I think oftentimes when just speaking from experience, oftentimes once you get to an end goal and accomplish what you've set out to do, it feels special. But a lot of times the memories or the experiences you had along the way are just as special and you shouldn't really be so goal focused, goal oriented where you miss out on all that. Awesome. Well, thanks so much for joining us. This kind of concludes our nine innings. For everyone that's watching, feel free to like our Facebook page. We have a lot of fun events coming up. And thanks so much, Christian, for joining us today. I had a lot of fun. So have a great day and stay safe, everyone.


Morning everybody Now we can sort of see how the space looks a little better without the big truck in here So I got the truck outside.    I think it's the exact same load But we'll find out when we get there bet my father-in-law Jerry at work just now. We now work together He's coming here to work a keystone as well Super excited about that now. I got both dads here My dad and my father-in-law a truck and family I'm not too sure what truck they're gonna give him yet, but I gave him a few suggestions as to what I think are the best ones I'll let him make up his own mind once Once he gets into them He's here for orientation this week Should be hitting the road either later this week or first thing next week. That's pretty excited. He's pretty excited I'm pretty excited. I got to pick up my load on the east side of Winnipeg and Get moving. I'm hoping to get unloaded tomorrow yet though. I'm gonna have to rush like usual Worst-case scenario I get unloaded Thursday morning and go get reloaded Thursday afternoon and then I'm back Friday evening Britt and I got a date on Saturday We're going to Cirque du Soleil Okay, bud. We got ourselves loaded up Take a look at these apples. I don't know what that is, but they wanted that's part of the load. So here we go beautiful I Don't know the 60,000 pounds of wood on the trailer bringing me up to an approximate gross weight of 95,000 pounds Or maybe 94,000 haven't scaled it yet, but we're not overweight doing good That's why we got the tri axle We can have 17,000 kilograms on these axles here 24,000 on those axles there I Think I just got duped by a guy driving a handy bus Pulled up to the stop light beside me And he was saying something like oh, there's something wrong. There's something wrong pointing at my trailer Something's gonna fly off like what? Can't be I just left right so I Found a safe place to pull over here. There's nothing wrong Shook and he's probably having a laugh that he got me to pull over and check my load, but What did that get him? I don't get it sounds of it when he was trying to get my attention It sounded like he said my headache rack was open and that my straps could fall out and stuff, right? I forgot to latch up my my headache rack. So I'm like, oh, thank you very much. Thank you. I've pulled over right away and No, they were closed those friends about how funny he is Just got back in from checking everything again Nothing wrong. Hope you're getting a good laugh Maybe he watches the videos and he's sitting there chocolate now that I included it in the vlog Well, what am I supposed to do like if someone tells me there's something wrong? I'm gonna come I'm gonna pull over and check It's not really an accomplishment Did I maybe misunderstand him like was he just yelling at me? I hadn't changed lanes or anything for the longest time.  Maybe because I'm driving so slow and he's got to make it to his handy van appointment And I have some very upset customers if he's late, I guess I don't know What in the world? Yeah, walked around checked everything three times There's nothing wrong Just like there was nothing wrong five minutes ago when I did my pre-trip That's why I did my pre-trip Nervous, you know Did he see something I didn't see? Because I do this for a living and I know what I'm looking for and I saw nothing wrong I probably got mad at me for driving too slow or something He was probably yelling at me for that couldn't quite understand what he was saying But it looked like he was saying that my headache rack was open or that there was something wrong behind my truck, right? And it sounded like that So I did an extra pre-trip. I even logged it in here as an extra load check Nothing more I can do really There's nothing that could have possibly flown off the trailer My load is all secured with way too many straps. It's not going anywhere So we turned on to the south perimeter westbound now on the south side of Winnipeg Way to Atchison. I'll be there tomorrow afternoon sometime I don't know if I'm gonna make it there in time to get unloaded tomorrow though a little bit of a later start today That's because we had to unload this trailer first It was still loaded up with those reels from last week, and they had to put that on a different trailer So we needed this tri-axle for this load. Buddy you can do it Look at you go. Oh, that's a Malibu. I thought that was a Civic. Oh, I apologize Thought crime so here we roll we're in the western southwestern Manitoba Coming up on the town of Burton and then coming up on the border with Saskatchewan You guys getting tired of the prairies yet. I'm not I love it out here Especially this time of year with the canola fields. They're still yellow, right? But it's August now which means all the fields are gonna start ripening And then they're gonna start harvesting them and you know what that means That is an ominous sign in winter is coming. I Didn't say it you said it you thought it before I said it that means it was your thought it wasn't mine I'm not taking ownership of that one. I don't think I'm gonna make it these guys who unload these Choice in Atchston they leave at 330 Which means they want you unloaded and out of their yard by 330 And it takes them a good hour to get these off if there's if it takes as long as last time So I'd have to get there by 230 otherwise That's just the way things are I Don't think I'm gonna make it If I had the hours to drive straight through and I didn't stop once I'd get there at about quarter to five in the morning But I have to stop for a break at least an eight-hour break here in Canada That's five. Let's just round it up to five because there's a pre-trip in the morning Five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve one o'clock That's with absolutely no breaks. I'm gonna have to stop for fuel. I'm gonna have to stop the bathroom breaks And I have to stop to check my load every couple of a couple of hours Which will bring us very very close to 230 So maybe we'll make it maybe we won't Depends if I have any delays like any delay whatsoever Is gonna cause us to be unloaded the next day, which is fine because I'm not gonna get reloaded till the next day Anyways, it would just be nice to get going to wherever my reload is right So we'll try we're gonna do our best but I make no promises I Met the mercy of the elements the road the traffic My bladder and my fuel tanks. This is a heavy load. We're pulling so I Mean it may not have to fuel till we get to Edmonton till after we get unloaded. I could probably get all the way there. I Don't like to run my tanks out low though Even in the summertime I'm gonna have to about going to Saskatchewan. We're gonna go right past today Trying to get as far as I can today. We're really trying to make our delivery for tomorrow Still don't know if we'll make it but we're gonna give it our best shot I want to make you all aware about it in my comment section some spam comments Pop up almost every day. It's very frustrating on my end Having to deal with this but just be aware that there are accounts that'll pop up and respond to you It'll they'll they'll use my profile picture But if it's a comment from me look beside the picture it's gonna say trucker Josh vlogs It should match the name on my channel Then you know it's from me. I've had multiple people message me. Is this you is this you look at the username Usually these spam commenters will say hey I have something for you or inbox me or reach out to me here And then there'll be like a WhatsApp number or something in the username there Don't click on that that's spam. They're trying to scam you out of something. I don't know. I've never clicked on it I don't know what they want. It's very frustrating. I don't know why they keep Making new accounts just so just be aware if you receive a comment from an account that has my profile picture It's not necessarily me. Okay, just look at the username If it doesn't say trucker Josh vlogs reported as spam It's just spammers, you know They got nothing better to do with their lives They've been making comments in my comment section replying to people and for years now and you know you you block them You report them. They just create ten other accounts. It's Just want you guys to know because there's been a couple of people asking already There's the flying J over there Not swinging in there this time. All right, usually I would laser focus today laser focus now that I know I have been I've been seeing those spam comments And it's a lot of youtubers that are dealing with that. There is not just me Don't engage with them don't click on them just report them as spam and eventually YouTube will just automatically plop them into a spam folder and That's what I do It's kind of annoying when you know you're trying to create an atmosphere for your channel for your viewers And you get somebody coming in there like hey posing as me, right? They they have the The same profile picture as me on purpose That's to trick you into engaging with them. Oh, did my CB radio just make a sound That's a first Did I tell you already in the vlog? I got a CB radio in here now. I'm a real trucker now How about that? Hey, I Found one laying around on our shed at home off to tell you about it later Yeah, it was just laying around in a box in our shed, and I found it over the weekend So it's a call throw in the truck see what happens I've had it on all day. Haven't heard anything Then again, nobody uses it up here. I haven't had one in probably like eight years People always say oh it prevents accidents. No drivers paying attention prevent accidents If you're paying attention, you shouldn't need a CB radio. You should be driving according to conditions Don't rely on that to save your life Or to save you from getting into an accident You shouldn't need that to prevent accidents But I figure you know, I'll plop it in here see what happens see if anyone's yapping on there Usually I don't like having one because it's just a bunch of motor miles on there usually and if I go into the US a Lot more people use it in the US, but you can't understand a thing They're saying they all like speak with the microphone inside their mouth There's like Come on What? What? Can't understand what they're saying anyway But here we are living the dream, right? I'm a real trucker now. Whoo It only took me 16 years I'm gonna have to get a better CB radio. We'll see if this one works for the amount. I'll use it. It'll work It's not that fancy. It's a Colbert 29 something something I'll show you later Let's get through Regina here. I want to at least get up to Saskatoon tonight at least maybe the Lloyd Minster We'll see in to Saskatoon here. I Think this is where we're gonna stop for tonight. I'm on the south end of town I'm gonna go around to the north side where the Flying J is of course. I'm sure you could have Guessed that See if there's any parking for us there. If not, we'll go over Next door to Husky or I guess it's Esso now Whoops, I guess we don't need these while we're in town the locals wouldn't like those very much though I personally love them My Jake Briggs Gotta remember it is 10 30 at night here right now. We're in mountain time So back home in Manitoba. It's 11 30 I found myself on a little bit of an unwanted detour Guess I'm turning here. The lead take Was closed suddenly for construction. I'm not sure if you're familiar with Saskatoon or not, but Right before the lights The right lane is closed and there's no way to get around it. You got to turn right Instead of going straight It's I guess it'd be kind of hard to explain to someone who hasn't been here before but you'll just have to trust me It kind of caught me off guard. So Taking a little bit of an unwanted detour here through Luckily, this is a commercial zone commercial area and this should take me back to the main road I think Then again, I'm pretty sure that if I turn right because flying J is that way I can probably weasel my way that way as well, but I don't know for sure. I Don't really want to risk getting caught in some residential zone or something seems like a very Quiet street I'm the only one here I'm the only guy who didn't know my lane was closed everybody else knew and went around You get back here. There's a light there. I see but the sign is saying detour go straight Okay Yeah, that road is closed there too. Okay Good thing. I didn't turn down there. I wouldn't be able to turn around that I have to back up There was that little sign on the bottom of the stop sign there.  I'm gonna need both lanes to make this right turn though Not sure I do I'm gonna take both a little bit of a tight corner This is called a buttonhook where I come from the right lane and then I right before the corner I hook it into the left lane and then I buttonhook it around the corner That's to make sure my trailer gets around this fire hydrant up here on the curb No one likes running over fire hydrants Can ruin your day. You do this though. You got to make sure that those four-wheelers don't Don't sneak in there, you know It happens more often than it should And then they look at you like you're the problem We're the truck drivers. We're always the problem, right? There we go. See this is the road I wanted to be on Turn right here, and that'll take me to flying J It's good to see the roads are still terrible.  I know we're back on track That was fun Little bit of sightseeing in industrial Saskatoon at night At least we got out of that pickle without getting ourselves into trouble Here to Saskatoon found some parking at the flying J and Went inside grabbed a couple of goodies mostly just Like I like having these protein bars. It's like a meal replacement bar for breakfast Trying to eat less Got to lose a little bit of weight, and I don't always have time to exercise so my Solution to that is just to eat less but also You know, these aren't the healthiest things out there. I'm not gonna say I'm eating healthy but this is what I have for breakfast until lunch and We'll worry about that tomorrow Grab myself something to drink Vitamin water even though it's probably pure sugar. Who are we kidding, right? Today was a pretty good day though. I got up super early at home Reasonably early. He went to the shop got the truck ready to go and then Bobtailed over to the trailer had to unload the trailer this morning and Then or get it unloaded. I didn't actually unload it myself. Who do you think I am? Then run into Winnipeg get it loaded tied it down myself and Made it all the way out here. We drove a total of 900 and some kilometers today But nine and a half hours of driving tomorrow. We have five and a half to six hours of driving left I think I'm gonna make it. I'm gonna stop here for my eight hours That's what I'm required to stop for on Canadian hours of service stop here for my eight hours We're gonna book it over to Edmonton and I think I think I should be there around two o'clock Maybe one thirty one thirty two o'clock I'm gonna try our best anyways. We'll see what happens So we'll be up early again tomorrow and we'll make another video for you then It was a smooth ride across Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Nothing to report My dad wasn't too far behind me. He's also going to Edmonton. I think he stopped in Regina He's headed to Edmonton for tomorrow to my father-in-law. He's also had his first day of orientation today At Keystone here as well. So that's exciting. I think I explained that a little bit before as well, too So he'll be driving trucks soon as well he used to drive truck when my wife was a little girl and He was a truck driver which helped a lot when I met my wife Because Britt understood what it what being a truck driver was you understood the trucking lifestyle Which benefited me quite a bit? so he he's going back to trucking and I'm excited to have him on the team here. It's gonna be great. So Dad and father-in-law Maybe we'll all run on one big long Convoy one day who knows I don't I don't run convoy much I have a CB radio in here now, but Not one peep on it all day I'll probably hear more on it when I'm in the US people like to chat on the CB there more They they like the CB more there. We'll see what happens Anyways, that's all I have to say for today. We made it here safely And that's all that counts So tomorrow's another day and I'll see you then I'll see you in the morning for morning coffee Don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell down there as well so you don't miss it


hello friends let us integrate this function we have to integrate the function sine 4x into sine d 8x with respect to dx now on multiplying and dividing it by 2 we have 1 by 2 integral of 2 sine 4x sine 8x into dx now we know that 2 sine a sine b is equal to cos a minus b minus cos a plus b right on using this formula we have 1 by 2 cos a minus b will be minus 4x minus cos e plus b will be 12x into dx further it can be written as 1 by 2 now cos of minus theta is cos theta so we have cos 4x into dx minus 1 by 2 integral of cos 12x into dx now integral of cos theta is equal to what it is equal to sine theta divided by the derivative of 4x that is 4 minus 1 by 2 into sine 12x divided by 12 plus c which can be taking out 1 by 2 common we are left with 1 by 4 sine 4x minus 1 by 12 sine 12x plus c and this is the required answer to the question that was given to us this completes my session hope you understood it well have a nice day


Carlos Alcárez vs. Grigory Dmitrov is the third quarter final for the men's Miami Open for 2024. Both players have been super impressive to get to this stage. Dmitrov entered the tournament as the number 11 seed and would get a buy in the first round. In the second round he take on Tobillo. After losing the first set, would fight back to win. 6-7, 7-6, 6-2. In the third round he take on Halfman, who had just beaten Manorino in the previous round. There's no problem for Dmitrov beating Halfman in under an hour, 6-1, 6-love. In the fourth round he take on the number 8 seed, Hercatch, who had just played an epic match against Korda the day before. And this is no different with Dmitrov losing the first set and fighting back to win. 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 to advance to the quarter finals. Alcárez started the tournament off as the number 1 seed and would get a buy in the first round. In the second round he take on Bayana. There's no problem getting through in straights. 6-2, 6-1. Third round he take on Moffice. And again, no problem for Alcárez getting through in straights. 6-2, 6-4. In the fourth round he take on the 23rd seed Mousedi, who had just beaten Shelton in the previous round. But again, no problem for Alcárez getting through in straights. 6-3, 6-3 to advance to the quarter finals. This was played 4 times before with Alcárez holding a 3-1 head-to-head lead. However, last time they played was a 3-setter in Paris, was a 3-setter in Shanghai, and Dmitrov finally getting a win over Alcárez. So the confidence will be with him going into this one. Dmitrov is going to win this one. He has to win the first set. He's never won the first set against Alcárez and in Shanghai, he was able to come back, but he just played such a long match. He's got to be tired, especially being the age that he is. He's a veteran these days, so he needs to get that first set and be aggressive against Alcárez as well. He can't stay back into slice. If Alcárez is going to win this one, he needs to attack Dmitrov and be aggressive and almost try and lengthen the rallies as well, because he knows that the longer this match goes on, the better for him. So a third set wouldn't actually be a bad idea as well. You know, maybe losing the first set is not a bad thing for Alcárez in the long term if he can get to a third set. Very fun matchup. Great to see Dmitrov continuing to play well. And after making the quarter finals here, he's made the quarter finals of all the 1,000 events, but I've got to go with Alcárez in this one. I think Alcárez wins this one in a close straight set. I think Dmitrov might just run out of gas. He's played a couple of tough matches and Alcárez hasn't lost a set. So he's going to be feeling fresh, but let me know down in the comments below who's making the semi.
