Okay, everyone. Welcome to Puppets in the Green Mountains, hence the dish I'm going to address. For those who don't know me, I'm Eric Bass, co-founder of Centro Compel to Do is to contextualize these performances opening the doors. And that can mean many different things, but it definitely includes opening the doors to anyone who has been locked outside in the world of injustice or exclusion. And so the shows in this festival all somehow address that coming in added from many different ways. What's contextualized are the lunchtime conversations. There was one today at noon. Tomorrow at noon, there'll be tomorrow's is your own theater adventure program by John Potter. And what that means for them as creators, what it means for us as an audience. Monday at 12 o'clock, Josh, and it's double from Taiwan. So a lot of interest in the way that the people in the trenches, people in the country for change in other ways besides the art, which brings me, which brings us to this afternoon. This is our, I don't remember these things anymore, so she's my memory. And the keynote address basically is perspective on this art form and its relationship to the system of changes that we can make. And the processes for doing that, Tracy Broyles is going to talk to you about. Let me present. If I have left any out in a name, I also apologize like to aid correct people here. I am aware of those very diseases here. Imagine opened doors for including myself have benefited to have come before us. Cultural erasure. They are not erased. It is my despite history and it is meant to attend because they were already elsewhere. A South African freedom song, a printmaker in the struggle by the South African Defense Forces in their lives in the struggle. Over the years that so many and I remember by my last visit embrace and more and entering events like for so long to create safe space and simply to be. So when Eric, one of worked in art, puppetry and support inclusive participation. And I have worked in justice and work towards experiences and reflections with you all are collaboratively, but to stand alone in that work. Well, to do my own work to work of experiential real time mind, which require some kind of order. Besides, you are all beautiful and inspiring and courageous work. What light can I shed on opening doors, which doors you're trying to open. Before I go further, I'd like to share a few important really just driven. Most of this is most breaking and likely these things inspired. We came to employing the negative or haphazardly remembered became a rep specific ways of working, many of which were taught to us or subtly adjusted by teachers in resistance movements. Through operating communities. They are not my way. They are not fixed to be consistent does not. And they are not rules, but ways and to them as well as offerings of any additional practices that may be or host community may have standing practices that are useful and should maybe habits that are no longer useful. The important thing is awareness, mindfulness, what I call for yourself as you need to. I know it's only 45 minutes or so, but still the restrooms which are left. If you need to take a call or step or want to come sit on the floor instead of a chair, please do so. Just mind the set using your hand or some other visible or audible indication. It's a little hard to see y'all so I'll put that to you to help. I'm able without losing my way. I'd love I may need help with that so I can keep the flow, but I certainly don't want to lose key to the moment and then diversion may reveal a new path. The keynote speech and not a workshop, but I'm not sure that that changes anything. Besides, I know some of us do better when we have something. So if any among you feel called to support me, and if that's not, that's okay. So because of transparency, it's important for us to honor self-care, to respect inquiry, keep awaiting for many creative collaborations and needs, at whatever level and whatever end modes of entry. So if somebody would keep a running little door, somebody's got a pen, someone's here in the room who would keep things in their own ways. The magical doodle. And I welcome anyone who wishes to share your illuminated manuals before we need a timekeeper today. Thirty. Thirty. Stopped talking. And then put them together with your professional timekeeper. Is there anybody like me at about six? So I know we're going to bring us into questions. And the motions are a temperature. But if somebody person keeps an eye on the space on the energy in the room, as you can probably express in flags when we might need to breathe, sing, dance. Today's short. I'd really, like I said, a doubt we will need that room is always welcome. Thank you. Is that random? What we call it. And they notice you're able as when you were in peace in terms of inclusion, someone may be someone may be getting off work late and arrive when they can. Keeper or host helps catch people up to speed so they can join. And there's more room over here and up. There's seats right here only because I don't want to block you out. And I might turn my back on you. The doorkeeper catches people up to speed so they will stop and rehash. They also make sure they're new or how to make themselves comfortable. Thank you. The doorkeeper would lead a process without. I found this to be a sense of important in terms of this on my own. If I'm not going to block the intent. This is that you have to believe it does go beyond improv using I speak to do so as well, which I'm completely. And also process work really you try to get into the room that day. To again, this is so. But he sits outside. John, thank you. So and so he said that there can be. I have some set up. So right. This is for me. We've used. Anything else that some of the community. We snap and one of the value. There's a lot of experience there. And there's one snap and you know. I don't know why that reminds me. Yes. Yeah, I do a lot of work. Other side of that is. Someone inadvertently. Whether. Yes, something interesting that I've only just recently. Is somebody who's visually tracking the dialogue. But in a way that's not just representation. So my. As a visual thinker, it's been really nice to help me track conversation. Acknowledging different people's different.  The cultural organization who saw themselves as cultural workers. In exile. And aesthetics grew out of that particular. To decades, even centered. Then sharpened by the ideologies of black consciousness. Built upon the uprising that we call so it to in nineteen. And part of the nineteen eighties grassroots mobilization. Madeu itself existed. For some of our best members. At the hands of the south. Goes on. And. Of the liberation struggle. To build meaningful productive. And oppression. Tommy Manila, one of the. Art should compliment the active. Or liberating the country. Context she continues. Each member brought their own. In the soil of the community of the townships. Blossom blossomed in the posters. In the music. In the poetry that madeu produced. South African resistance. In particular. Has been. And. And played a pivotal role. Share with you all today. It seemed important that I look at my. Here. As far back as I can reach. Confidence. In the justice and fairness. People. And an aversion to all things exclusive. I was a child who formed clubs that everybody could be. I don't remember the specific events that. Standing in our kitchen bewildered confused and disoriented. Upended by some in general. But to someone other. Something I'd witnessed made no sense. And conjured revolt. Whatever it was. I am from south Louisiana. A rich place of festival. Parades culture on the outside. And by that I mean yes. Although it was in the 70s and 80s. So white children in fourth grade. Were on one side of the building. And black children. Fifth grade. I went to my. My old white and now. But no African American. Understands that there was anything. Rest of the school was African American. And we only. Petition. Which did not help. So. For the longest time my narrative. Was that I had very limited experience. But two forces in parallel challenged. In the libraries of self education. The civil rights movement. The struggle. Part time movement in South Africa. Opened. Oh really. Okay. Opened windows to my world. In particular cry the beloved country. By Alan Payton gave words to what I witnessed. Visible. But were not discussed or acknowledged. This South African novel. Humanly and vividly illustrated the system. Of their homes. To distance. Memberment of the familiar. The violent and methodical. And I read the book. The faces on the trains. I saw. The faces of those on the buses in. Matt and Rouge. Even at the register of the drug store. I had not consciously seen my world. Through this lens. But upon reading these novels. What had been unnamed. Greats however we stood side by side. Black and white calling for Mardi Gras beads. And joined. Realized the grownups were actually intoxicated. By the. The revelry. Now perhaps there was political satire in those. Now of Mardi Gras. But I didn't see it or record. Which is black and white rich and poor in this. Dancing and singing and dressing up in costumes. Of society. Of how. And to whom and with whom and where. This glory. With the ordinary rules suspended. And really. It seemed like there was a new. See. And then there's this funny balance. The quest to catch more throws and beads. Coupled with the odd and. Someone isn't catching anything. This generosity that flows as these beads. Worthless but worth more than. Standing next to you empty handed. Just for the sheer sake of sharing. So it should come as no surprise. In Charlottesville. When my rage against the world. Rude awakenings as we say. Later states. Learning that leaders like iron contra. Just a loss of faith in the American dream. And democracy. When I met bread and puppet. Something lifted and shifted. A marriage of passionate. To my roots. I skipped school for a week or more. And spent every moment they'd let me with them. Billions I hadn't met before. I was thrilled that there were other. A way to talk about all this on a scale. That approached the scale of suffering. That it was. Left town and we kept making puppets. And starting ourselves. Waiting abstract protests and criticism. Around the very downtown mall. In Charlottesville for hate. Coiled.  Combat boots and the courage of my convictions. Had the incredible privilege. Together we crossed color lines. And I spent my 20 something. And my days like. Going about town. Invading the art and music studios of my friends. Draw. And parade theater every so often. They're my. Teaching me how to stand up for myself. To challenge cat calling and man. A couple of years later. As quickly as I arrived. A journey a track of quest. I don't know what. And one. Communities and with communities of color. In Washington. No puppets no parades. I didn't even go home from already growing. Like. But instead used the form. Raids theater protest. Active authorship from that community. That I see of activist theater. It's a total over. On one path the art is made by artists. Often used to assert. Shirts conduct research conducted in community. Often intended to persuade. Educate. On another path the art is made by community members. Who may or may not identify. Organizers not interpreters. But facility. The work reflects the ahas. Of the community. Rather than the artist. To spiral queue works. Communities express positions with which we disagreed. Sort of a companion to the ACLU. But in the art world. Maddie Hart. The founder was ready to return to university. Specific work of giant. Puppetry and parade. This time. Softly being my first mantra. Which evolved over. With good intentions. Of an artist bull. Possibly even like my ancestors. Bringing. I'd certainly run into the rescue. To give voice or raise a ruckus. And as I mentioned. I'd exited. Ghosting today. And so I try to walk softly. So I've shared some of the basics. Self care roles. Assume positive intent. Why puppets? Why puppets? Last night I was watching Babylon. And I was reminded of one of the things I think about often. At the world. Learning by looking. Sometimes lost in reverie. In a very different way. In our bodies. In our minds. And I think we need this space and time. And look at it for a while. Without apology. Without questions. Without freedom. They cannot be invisible. Approaching and receding. And the melee of all the stimuli out there. They manage. Inspires. Excites. As a protector. Eric Garner. Which one. And which end of. Littany of lost life. Be so long. That this rally we brought three puppets. And we had three performances at the point of some. With a very large police presence. Beyond. In order not to block the view of the crowd. Remember. We didn't want to put the puppets in front. So we positioned ourselves behind the community and the police. As. Make her for the crowd. And they were big enough. And in witness to this suffering. When nothing seemed to pass to them. Like a receiving line at a funeral. And touched our shoulders. I'm going to take two more. Get. So. Puppets can transcend text based. Culture and experience in age. But this doesn't. Thousands. Brought a day of the dead parade to a. Was a large group of largely white. Artists who had some. No real roots in it. So when they brought the parade to a largely African. This was no soft. Understand why these giant skeletons. Were walking in there. One is. As artists. Doors are often open to us. When they might not otherwise be. Mindful of walking through those doors. Even upon. Who has now passed to the other side. Miss Austin believed in dialogue. Forgiveness and change. And she brought. And a rich education about cultural appropriation. And thoughtful entry. A secular holiday and festival made by the. It's a whole season. And you couldn't stop people who had if you tried. So I think I've probably shared about as much as. Any of us. The most essential practice comes from John O'Neill. The founder of the Free Southern Theater. And an organizing member of the. Story circle is more than we can go into right now. But the premises are most essential. Everyone has the right to tell that story. And then if we value that. Then we must also and most critically. Learn to listen. I'm going to remember that. Silence. I think that's helpful. But mostly about the. And so I thank you for listening to. Church Bishop Desmond Tutu. Distance art in South Africa. Of their truth inspire me. Says. There can be no. In the life of a people. Long ago for instance. On their livelihood. And help to ensure their survival. Painting was not entertainment. Nor were they. That dominion over their environment. To have. Nor. Inacted on the stage for the audience to see. Are the experiences of their day. Failures. The traumas. The world we live in together. And Maria. If you want to. Play the music soft. So in closing I invite you to join me in a roll call. Inspired us to do better. To a more just and joyous world. For all. With present a. But I'm actually going to pause. I can't do that and then take. The last thing. John right. Yeah. How a person feels. Yes. Similar. And they got this. Mass. And the whole thing. So. And I didn't want to. But then. When I. See. This is my boy. Yeah. There really was no art program. For. A number of years. So Spiral Q was a wonderful opportunity. For our students to get involved. In arts. In a hands on experience. With the rest of the curriculum. So as the students. Spiral Q. Has really. That the students. Have had an opportunity. How to work together as a team. To problem solve. And to collaborate. The kids are so enthusiastic. About. Spiral Q time. And that's what I mean when I say that Spiral Q. Is so. To. And I work with. For. Both very clear about our framing. But also is one that understands the use. Not just. But I think that as a space to help. Using. To create new puppets. And then also using. To.  And all of these social justice issues. From. We're both about. The. Right to information and what it means to live. There's no one else in Philadelphia. I see. Is just so meaningful to us. I didn't talk to you all about like accessible technologies. You know. Recycled. Foundational parts of our work. Because I'm so busy thinking about all of these other things. But. Let me open the floor to you all. I want to communicate causes. Or. Don't support. That feels like things are. So polarized both. Right and left. That seems incredible. That. To. So one of the really challenging ones. We there was a I got a call from the minister of. Baptist Church. Who was trying to raise awareness in this community about HIV. And. And their message was an abstinence-only message. That was really all they had room for. And as a community, as a group whose, our founding work was with Act Up Philly, for some of you who don't know, that's a pretty radical group that really, I mean, we were for needle exchange, harm reduction, I mean, it was, and so myself and another artist were on our way over to this church and I said, oh, by the way, we could get there and find out that we're helping them organize an abstinence rally. And she said, I think I might need to get out of the car. And I said, I know, that's why we're talking about this, but we also really profoundly believe that one of the most important thing, aside from hate speech, violence, and destruction, right, is that people have an opportunity to work through ideas and an artistic dialogue and a creative process. And thank heavens we did, because we got there. And we were ready to go and we were like, okay, we're gonna do this and how are we gonna put, honestly, put creative thinking only aside? And he said, okay, so I have to do this abstinence-only message, but I can't control what an outsider does. And my community is dying. And I said, okay. And so the next thing we knew, we actually got, like we did a little bit of work, but what we really did was we got, and they worked hand in hand with him and really helped to put some interventions where he could protect his stuff, right? And so we had to get in the car, we had to get all the way there, knowing that we didn't know what we were gonna do. So that's an example, I don't know if that's true. You talked a little bit about going into, in your walking stuff lately, talked about going into communities and how you now extricate yourself, but in a way that might yield more, like, leading sustainable practices. I'd be curious about what that model looks like in the stuff of practice, where you're not just coming in and going, yeah, let's do crazy car, see you later, good luck. Right, so I said that there's something, so we started doing two things. One is instead of like seeing opportunities, or seeing like cool spaces, or seeing a community who we thought might be in need, we started only, or promoted, like we let, like, until we worked in a community for five years, doing a process and making a parade in a festival every year. And the first year, they said, they just, we wanted to just celebrate what was rich about that community. And so we made giant papier-mache barbecue pits and a huge boom box and all this stuff. And by the, about the fourth year, they were like, we've got to start out. And then a few months after one of the events, we'd been doing a parade and we were parading through our neighborhood and the community had, like, I worked with the community to map the parade route, okay? And they were clear, this is the route we're taking. And we said, you're welcome to escort us, but we don't, you don't have to be here. And they said, well, we can't go there, that's dangerous. I said, the community has said we're going here. And so we went through this area, about six months later, there was sort of a rash of shootings. And the community organized a whole march, a whole vigil. They called us and we said, do you need anything? And they said, oh, we just need you to show up with us to help plan to get permits. They didn't need any of that.  And we try to talk about intentionality with that. And that whole, like when I say a deconstruct process in it, we use the process as a training, as being a training. And then we are in, like, how great that particular population decided that we were going to, like in terms of, we did need to have some long-term work, because it gets, it's hard to be an artist who goes into a community and leaves and goes into community and leaves, and then where do you see the long-term change? And so we did decide to make a commitment to our base community and our home geographic community. And that's been really, really rewarding. And we have kids now, well, we have grown people now coming and working with us as staff members who were children in a parade, like, and had a huge gap, or have had mothers come in and bring their children and say, so there's where a lot of the wealth and privilege is, so we weren't there very much. I now live in upstate, and am...


So people, we've been back and watched the original D1 trailers together and oh the nostalgia feels were there for sure. Now something hit me up on my discord saying, you should do the same for Anthem, the original, 4-2-B, Desto killer, and I thought, well we all know it failed, what would be the point in that, but you know what, I thought, why the hell not?


Hi, my name's Pat Lohr and I'm a member of the Edmonton Regional Learning Consortium Math Team. Thanks for joining me. Today I'm going to share four examples of number strings based on the ideas of Kathy Fosno. They're designed to give you some ideas about how you could use strings like these to encourage your students to develop good multiplication strategies. You're watching the first of two parts and in this part I'm going to discuss the first two strings which make use of an actual array model. In part two I'll discuss the last two strings and they use an open array model. That's something that might be new for a lot of you so I encourage you to check out part two if you have the chance. This professional learning opportunity is made possible by a grant from Alberta Education to support the implementation of the revised mathematics curriculum. The file has a couple pages of teaching notes with information about the math behind the strings and some suggestions for presenting the problems in the classroom. I'll be talking about the ideas during the webcast. The four sample strings are definitely meant to be a starting point for you and I encourage you to make use of the ideas to create some strings of your own. I want to remind you that they are not meant to replace concrete experiences or contextual problems that you're already using with your students. But I do think that they might help your students move on to more abstract ways to work with numbers. In the first string I want students to begin to develop an understanding of arrays because they are a really powerful way to model multiplication. I use strings as a short mini lesson with my students and I like to do the writing or modeling to keep things moving along. I'll be using the smart board in this webcast but you certainly don't need a smart board to use number strings with your kids. It does have some nice features that I'll be making use of but I won't do anything that you couldn't do with an overhead projector or a blackboard and some paper or arrays. Now in the first sample you don't see any equations because I'm going to write them on the board as students suggest them during our discussion. I expect you would use this string with students who are just being introduced to multiplication or maybe students who haven't had much experience with arrays. For each picture I'm going to ask my students, how many fruit do you see? How do you know? Can you find the total without counting them one by one? And did anyone think of it in a different way? You can circle groups of fruit and write equations to model the strategies students suggest. You can see the fruit are arranged in arrays so I guarantee students are going to make use of those equal groups and their strategies even if you haven't introduced multiplication yet. So if a student suggests that they see two groups of six apples you can circle it like this and record 6 plus 6 equals 12 or 2 times 6 equals 12 depending on what your kids are ready for or where you want to go with the lesson. Let them suggest as many different ways to find the total number of apples as they can. They may suggest four groups of three or six groups of two or they may have some other ideas as well. You always want to begin the number string in a place where even your lowest student can join in the conversation and then you try to move up in complexity to a problem that's going to stretch your strongest kids. What you're trying to do is help everyone move forward in their understanding from wherever they happen to be. You're never going to end up with everyone in the same place. The next picture has oranges and the 3 by 3 arrays are a little more challenging. And then I have a picture of two 5 by 4 arrays of tomatoes. So the numbers are greater but kids can start to make use of tenness like 4 times 10 or 2 times 20 and right away we're actually moving beyond basic facts. Now the second string is going to use equations with the arrays and in this particular example I'm going to try to nudge my students to think about how the 5 times facts could be used to help you with the 6 times facts. Now for each problem remember those questions. Who knows the answer? What was your strategy? Did anyone think of it in a different way? Model their strategies by circling sections of the array. So here a student might say I counted by 5s 4 times and I would model it like this and label the arrays. Another student might say I know 5 times 2 is 10 and then I just doubled it. So again I can show that on my array. Once you ask that question who thought of it in a different way you'd be surprised by what your kids come up with. Now most of the facts in this string are organized in pairs with the 5 times fact first followed by the related 6 times fact. In each case the extra row for the 6 times array is hiding on top of the bottom row of the 5 times array and you can just pull it down and into place before you discuss the 6 times fact. Again a little smart board trick but you could have the extra row folded back on your paper array. It's a not too subtle way to nudge kids to think about my target strategy but remember that in almost every case there are other good strategies as well. 6 times 4 could be modeled as 5 times 4 and 1 times 4 but it could also be modeled as 6 times 2 and 6 times 2. Both of those are great strategies for that fact. I present the problems one by one and I always leave the previous questions on the board for support. I want my students to use what they know to help them with what they don't know. If someone suggests a particularly good strategy why not ask someone else to restate it in their own words or you might have everyone turn to a neighbor and explain the strategy to them. So 5 times 3 is followed by 6 times 3 5 times 7 followed by 6 times 7 and then the final challenge fact to this sample string is 6 times 8 presented with no helper fact. The 6th row of the array could be pulled down though if you wanted to do that during the discussion. And that's it for part 1. In part 2 I am going to share a couple of sample strings that use that open array model. If you found any of this intriguing I highly recommend you check out Kathy Fosnows' work. Remember to keep the mini lessons quick and don't expect everyone to master the strategies the first time you present them. We want our kids to see the big ideas behind the facts and work flexibly with numbers. We definitely do not want them to believe that rote memorization is the key to math power. Thanks for spending the past few minutes with me and I hope you take some time to check out part 2.


The fight against transnational vehicle crime can only remain effective if the law enforcement community innovates in line with rapid technological progress at a time when criminals are increasingly exploiting modern technology to steal cars. We see the Interpol Stolen Motor Vehicles database as a vital global tool against international vehicle theft and trafficking. At the end of 2017, the Interpol database on stolen motor vehicles contained more than 7 million records from 126 countries. An important point about operations such as Fincar is that it highlights how we need strong partnerships across law enforcement communities as well as the public and private sectors to combat transnational organised crime.


chamber pwa maaala nguriko hanu, kwa hiu, taka na maau na kwa kata maia. Kaniwa hirikata, hachi katia ohi. Yama, kwa mauala kutikata, kwa mazika na mauala, ez murena wa mufuwa. Hia kakiniwa. Wei mei na. Hitei, Makatu. Mohan na ma Ningu. Miga nang으면 kwa mazika k而已. Kwa mazika nagingustu peri uori ya kaniwa. Ayama ya kaniwa. Right. And I was just telling you that you have an interesting name. Kido go na hanza muhat mahan. Na chagana. The air, the air, the news, the hedge, the tease. You know they are all over. But you have an interesting name. Tell us more about these names as you introduce yourself. Okay, basically mahat means great. Ya, ya, ya. And you are talking about great. So I'm a great man. Go down and tweet. We are all great. We are humble. Okay. We are great man by show. We are 촬영 and we don't know the people we are including. We all try to come up and mean anything you create. Basically mahat means man. Man is anointed. When you are anointed, is a testimony comes. Out of the things God has taken through. Even miracles God has done to you. We go research and I do research. So I am searching. I said when he was born, it is an Indian name. That means great. I said all this while God I can speak Yunga and he said you know Mahathi will one day become a great man. He will give you a new name. Actually what I have imagined is, that he will give you a new name. But when your baptize you give a new name, When one accepts Christ, he becomes a new creature. So, God naku patiya new name. Nami new name ali ni patiya ni mahat. Nani kasi ma, kasi jina appeal ya ku jaziya, jumisda ii kwa na jina tum mawaza. Na wasi wala kwa na ni confused na mahat magadi. So, umseki skia mahat, ania, eh mahat magadi. Every time we search your music on it, mahat magadi. Before we need to know mahat magadi. So, ina confused wa say, but ni kasi ma, ni sawatu. The more to na put content to ko inje, maybe skumoja ni ta pita yukles ya mahat magadi. But also mahat magadi was a great man. You see, the things he did. So, away from him, now mahat. Makuna mahat means great. And then muhan, it's also, ni ka find out in China, ina manisha an origin. So, from a certain origin. But aminum tu wa kakamega mage. So, from an origin called kakamega, this man came out mahat. That God only called forth. Daraneza dunjob na iye. So, but muhan, ni shot for me, asa ni miangom bani, muhanda. Ah, yes. Now ma, yukin tu mien pesa sayi. Tawna muhanda. Tawna muhanda. Tawna muhanda. It seems that you are a man of many testimonies. The life seems to be like one testimony to the other. Anisha, that's just one testimony. Especially that led you to now begin your music ministry and just go on and go on and never giving up on God. Asa ma, testimoniangu great ni that limit Christ. That is the greatest testimony I can tell the whole. And when did you meet Christ? Okay. The good thing ni that we grow in a Christian family based. Ina, ina, ina, inanda kukubili yo, yo faith poli, poli. Until now, weh mo nyaw na mitu om se. There is a difference between to hear and to meet the person. So, there are those who hear about Christ and they have not met him. So, how will you speak of someone you've just had and you've never met him? Ni ga ma sayi relationship ya kwa na nalix. Nalix. Niko shuwa mi says he explains so much about you but nix ana kujwa deeper than I do.  So, mother always want to push in the Sunday school. So, yo tu poli poli tu yo interesting na build ina build ina build baka ni kaji find manze na ta kuku wok na umse for my entire life. So, that's how nili, nili, nili learn that. Eh. Nya we Christ ali ni sayi so many things that size ya tani kushuwa singe maniz kukuwa up alive. So, mi meeting Christ that was the greatest testimony in my life. And I can tell the world you need Christ. The things of this world will pass but you know the word of God which is Christ himself is still to be made. And you realize agi sasa now you meet in Christ and you want to serve him through music. Sasa apu kusavu na issue kwa jwa. Many are there but few are called. Apu kwa few are called. So, every places I would go nili kwa nambat do you know you will one day become a man of God kwa ni sisi we are all men of God. No, not that man of God you will one day serve God according to his will. E kuna vitu mimi na ta kudu za world nipili his world kuna vitu zenye God na ta kandidu maybe za ta kwa Guinness the world. Ono na. Ayon nili pointe nili kasa ma Then what is the path? I follow the path mostly wu na juo kumeguru from ghetto there are so many things that are happening kuna kuna stories are easy kuna stories are drugs. So many things but not on God benewari na sama that he is the one who orders our steps and he guards our way. So, God alianza kuhu guide steps zangu to the rightful people and that's when I met this man called Pastor Samukat. So when I met Pastor Samukat Mamba explains everything. No, you know the general music also. So when I met Pastor Samukat mii kwangu wilikwani yolabu tukolabu. Eh, niku westa. Nasi kwa na jokuna ministry. So, ya kanemensatapiga kolabu na fadi enafi when the song we did we have never released. It was almost 10 years. It is a great song. It was overtaking anointing. And tell us, okay, I've noticed before I asked my question. Yes, I mean, I've noticed the way he's bringing out his music in that regga genre. Yes, iyo regga genre. Unapata ya so many people who meet a person who becomes like a mentor or rather a leader. Asha into music, into ministry. And wana fana na. Wana fana na. You know na. Wana fana na kuimba almost. They say looking for albama. Kolabu. That is Yes, you are looking forward to that. But you know that is in line also in our discussion today. If you meet a great man, a great person, how do you respond to this person? And you're meeting some cuts. Even calling him that. He's a powerful man. You're meeting some cuts. How did you, of course this is a great man you've been admiring to him a lot and how did you even approach him and ask him sir kindly can I work with you? We are going to take a moment to give a brief. Uro deo kolabu ilipua ndi ujo mungu panga ritu Sisi watuna panga, but at the end of the day wiliya mungu ndu ina happen. The song I was to do with a guy called Shushain. But eventually Shushain will come ina jomeika. So, we are working with NYNP Otholek, Otholek ania mbiya Jeribu dafari nafari piya kiki takakumtafuta amenda zimbabu. So, the only person that was remaining ina hiata ilik wani desaya kia lukwa na mimi mi nili mi tumise kwa event, I took his number, but baka waliwasi jame call, then mi desaya sanak wakna ina kama mbiya. Then if it is this man, let me try.  So, I came to God, where do you want to go? I will try. So, the mother took on this friend of mine is a brother and it is a redemption music, bigger redemption. So, to end up appaivi maximum for acacia. So, to end up maximum after an event, kumesa mu katali kwaasha pigi yaake.  So, to end up kwaasha malisa session.  Here is the man, talk to him. Na ukumbuke, ni bisya pewa namban na utola na fanin pigsi him. But so, I was not in the meet but the funny thing is we didn't talk I didn't tell him and I wanted to do a collab with him to link a couple politics So, I went ahead and called him. When I called him, I told him, I was in the midst of the people that were going to work on our own, but to me, I want to do a collab with you, and I'm a collab. No problem, tupatane. Tupatane, Tupatane, tupatane, tumapanga, sikusina… Igusiku kifika kitu na happened. Igusiku kifika kitu na happened. Atezusn tu weze zamungu, kitu zamungu aziku sii kujangi wu na expect. So, eventuali tu likuwa thukamit. The first kwaishona lini nulizani after iko collabo, what next? Nika handemi na dha kwa star, kama wa standi wengini na onaga pa tivi. Na nipelagei mziki to the whole wide. Akania mbiya, nisao. Kama yendo wiliyamungu, nisao? So we went ahead, dida collabo. And then on the session akania mbiya, you know, before I do a song, I normally pray. If this ee project iko kwa wiliyamungu ama pana.  So, and that is how he mentioned now, man say, you have been called to minister, through the music. Na, sometimes it was it enda weni wana taka. But at the end of the day, ni that wiliyamungu ta happen kwa life ya, kwa na glory ta murudia. So we did the song and that is how the music journey began. Nili kwa nisha fanya fanya vitu kada back then, but ele kujitambu wa piya haujuia identity ya kwa yo mini kwa kwa world, na bado ni kwa mungu. Na taman ito bitu zota mbilu, na. Kubalansi mi kwa issue. But sister, sa ini mi patam se mone anajuwa exactly ni anafanya. Ako kwa purpose na anajuwa what is to be called a musician, who is a minister. So akanza kuni take through mini kwa juwa manze from up i vini, kwa collabo tu zingine mo alaku. Ni kwa style. But ya kwa anakulabo? Collabo tu me piya, ika kwa ni story. Ya ni iko collabo bakata sa ini kona demo tu. Ika kona demo from 2013. I just have the demo. Then after apo, ya ni kwa sewa. Nisha awa God, but the journey was sweet. It was bitter at some point, but out of the fruits that came out, it has been sweet. But you are looking forward to that. And this guy taught me the ways of God, the word of God, how to pray. One thing I know about Samukat is that he is really strict. Yes. Yes. Let me continue. Okay. Finish that point. So akanza tu kwa na anajuwa, missions, ministry, ni ni. Alafwadiwa manze great platforms. Akin ya na kwa mbewe ni giyanga apo, i vanga ni kipiga. Wow. I vanga ni kipiga. Ya, that is good. So I was a man in prayer while he is ministering. So you see any great man kuna kwa nga na baka, kuna kitu na happen behind. So even the music that we are doing, there is a spirit behind. Yes. So misiku anajuwa kumbe this is how he was making me now to become the person or a better than him. Yes. So ni kajuwa kumbe before pandey platform, piga prayer. Yes. Before pandey anything, piga prayer. Let me tell you, we usually exist on this show that prayer is key in everything that we do. Sure. You cannot live without prayer. We say manga a day without prayer is like a bust to God. It's like you're telling God I can do it without you. Without you. But anyway, let us now talk about your latest project. I know you make amdamu, you just told us. But your latest one, as we find out less because of time, you have done more than a conqueror. It is a collaboration. Tell us more about this one. Ah, you understand how the things have been, tangu, corona, me, I say this and I wonder like things were not okay. They were not okay. They were not okay but it is easy. But are they stabilizing right now? Ah, yeah. Yeah. As matters kuna storms around. Ula God ni kuna ea ni, ame ni kava tha tata sifilio impact. All right. Now, let us say ma, it is that through pain that ni me kwaum strong. It is through that situation that in many ambiano you are a great man and you should go through that fire so that you get purified when you stand before men what on a gloria God. So these are just works. Me going through all those situations is just the works. Yes. And then when God will present me now that you are a ready person that you can minister to these people you will know what to speak about because you cannot speak of a situation you have never gone through. Yes. Have you noticed something about Pastor Umahad? Umahad. He can really preach. He can really preach. Yes. You have done this collaboration and we are looking forward to more, more songs. Of course this year. Yes. Ume se ma kuna ka albamsa mo ya. Kuna kia albam. Kuna kia albam. Kuna kia albam. Ku nage albam. Kuna kia albam. Kaykuna rewe zamungu. Rewe zamungu. Uwe na maza kongya.

All right, this is Alex. I'm back with this Corbin Mock Attempting to get it controlled this time So everything's nice and loose I think I may have had some pins like not releasing or something and I'm coming in with a different pick because I Think that other one needs a little tune up Let's go all the way back to the keyway That's about back to the keyway there.  Let's see what we got here Feeling all these are funny little locks that I haven't quite figured out how they work yet Mechanically these guys kind of odd because this key was enormous. Yeah, it's very long Let's get something that better leverage Diamond just push principle or just drop everything. There we go The frickin battering right there was it really wanted to set We're dealing with some kind of security feature here other than just good tolerances There it is or I just was really close. So that was probably the last pin I just need to get around him. So there it is picked to control and see it Turned there. All right There it is released and One more time with the key. Here's the Amazingly high-security bidding on this thing But these are both labeled control from him over. I got these from and this is the one that works and the other key which really looks identical Doesn't Doesn't work it didn't work even before I picked it. So who knows anyway, Morgan Large format interchangeable core cylinder picked to control And that makes me feel much better Anyway, this is Alex.

Ukraine's strikes on three Russian refineries reached their target. Seven-day oil refining volumes in the Russian Federation fell sharply to the lowest level in almost two months. The crisis has gripped the Russian industry due to the shutdown of two large refineries at once, as well as serious damage to a third after they were hit by Ukrainian drones. This was reported by the Bloomberg News Agency. Journalists received analytical data, according to which the first week of January showed a serious drop in oil processing to 5.41 million barrels per day, which is 135,000 barrels below the average for most of December. Attacks on oil refining and export facilities have become increasingly destructive in recent weeks, threatening the Russian Federation's ability to supply fuel to foreign and domestic markets. Experts note the success of the strategy chosen by Ukraine to inflict maximum damage on a key area of Russian industry for the Russian budget. Bloomberg emphasises that oil refining has been completely stopped at two large refineries that send their products for export. This refers to the Novotek plant on the Baltic coast and the Tuapse oil refinery of Rosneft PJSC. The oil refinery in Volgograd, which was hit in early February, was also damaged. This is one of the largest oil refineries in the Russian Federation, supplying fuel to both domestic and foreign markets.


SCP-567 is located in the dungeon beneath Site 41. It consists of a series of eight cells. With the majority of people and objects, the cells remain inert. However, when individuals meeting certain conditions come within 2.5 meters of a cell door, shackles will materialize and launch from inside of the cell, restraining the subject and dragging them within. Once the cell door closes and locks, both the subject and shackles vanish, leaving behind no trace of any kind. Each cell appears to have its own unique trigger conditions in order to activate, which seem to involve committing some sort of criminal or heretical act.


Javelin Thrust 2011 is the largest total force exercise the Marine Corps does. Across several West Coast states, more than 5,000 Marines, both active and reserve, are testing their ability to act as a Marine Air Ground Task Force or MAGTAF.  A MAGTAF is how the Corps deploys, combining air, ground and logistics assets into one package. What Javelin Thrust is exercising is the Marine Corps' middleweight and most flexible MAGTAF, its Marine Expeditionary Brigade or MEV. We're not tied to a standard organization where we're going to force things into a deployment and a mission that have no role. We would only take those things that are absolutely needed and things that aren't needed are left behind. At this exercise, 4th Marine Division is providing air, ground and logistics assets. Command and Control is coming from the Camp Pendleton, California-based FirstMEB Command Element. FirstMEB trains to be a force in readiness. The call comes, they go. Nobody in the world can do what we're doing. Nobody. We can move quickly. We can start getting forces in a position, either to be a presence or start being engaged in a particular crisis. And I think we can hold until bigger decisions are made and larger forces have to move. As the nation watches a decade of combat operations in two theaters wind down, Marine Corps leadership sees the need to lean towards this middleweight posture. The MEV is really the right scalable-sized force that we need to be prepared for crisis and contingency response. That response capability is what Javelin Thrust is exercising. FirstMEB's Command Element simulated what it would take to quickly set up a combat operations center in a remote location and establish command and control over a magtath. It doesn't do who we're trying to help any good if it takes us months and months to get somewhere to help somebody. People need help in a hurry when it's a crisis. For FirstMEB, Javelin Thrust is third in a series of four yearly training exercises, each building off the last. General Speese says through this training he's confident in his MEV's abilities. And I would argue that coming out of this, we're in good shape to go anywhere and do anything. Javelin Thrust continues through July 29th. From Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center, Bridgeport, California, I'm Staff Sergeant Brian Buckmore.


If I had to pick one feature of App Service, I think it would have to be deployment slots as my favorite feature. Deployment slots allow our customers, or any user of App Service, to have what I call zero downtime deployment. Historically, when you deploy your application to a web server, at some point you have to put up a web page saying, we'll be right back, don't worry, site's not gone, but we're updating it. And when you update it, you copy the files to the server. Problem is, you don't know if those files have actually landed correctly or not until you take that page down and open it up to the world. At which point, if something bad happened, the entire world is there to see it, and you have to put the page back and try to troubleshoot without being able to see it. Deployment slots, however, give you an invisible version of your site behind your production slot. You can deploy there to your heart's content while your customers continue to use the production site. However, you can access that hidden or staging slot of your website. So you can go and make sure everything landed correctly, you can do any smoke test that you might want to do, and when you're ready to share it with the world, you simply swap the slots and everyone sees the new value with zero downtime. Let's say something still goes wrong, traffic starts to come on really heavily, you have a performance issue, all you have to do is swap them back, and then what used to be production is now back there again and you're ready to rock and roll. So deployment slots, zero downtime deployment, it's an amazing feature of App Service.


It has been... I haven't taken a break today. It's nine o'clock and I haven't taken a break. I'll be right back. Diablos Charged Belated Juicy. Maybe I'll make one too. Maybe we can get a temper Diablos. I'll be right back guys. Thanks for watching. Feel free to follow the stream if you are enjoying yourself. Twitter.com. You can follow me there. YouTube.com. I'll be back in like three minutes. First break of the day. I'm a bad man. I need to do this more often. Alright guys. Bye back. I'll be right back. Three minutes. Alright back. I'm thinking about trying Kieran. Let me go look at his weaknesses. Is it a fire or water? What is it? What do you bring to a Kieran fight? Because last time I just went whatever. Fire. Okay. Ice is good and water is good. I'm thinking about trying to fight Kieran with the bow. And the head is a weakness. Or either with the heavy bow gun. I've used the heavy bow gun a while. I've kind of rusty.  I don't have a fire bow made yet. Alright. I think I'm going to try them. I need to save this load out. Let's call this generic I guess. It's a load. I need to redo. This needs to be redone. Let's redo this. This needs a Legiana set. With the Wrath coil. I don't think it keeps a weapon does it? Ice. Tack charm. Actually I need the Fitness charm on here. Vitality. We'll do this for the set. Crap. It's a big bow. Because you want to watch my stream at twitch.tv slash borna. Isn't it amazing? The dedication that Jake has that he would just pop up at 3am just to watch this stream? I'm honored man. I'm honored that you would do such a thing. Alright. Let me go see if I can upgrade anything before we go to Tipness. Attempt this. I don't have a fire bow. I can make a fire bow, but I don't know what that means. Probably requires a gym or something. Let me see if I can make a fire bow. I'm not going to use it for anybody but him. So... Whatever. It's just a game. Alright, so fire bow would be who? Angeneth? Then Rathalos? Okay. Let me see if I have the mats. So I need a bone. Actually... Yeah, bone. Then down to Pukey Pukey. Then down to Angeneth. Let's see if I can do this. I've already had a bone bow. So I've got the thunder. I've got the ice. I thought I had a third one. Oh. It's the Diablos one. Which in retrospect, I probably wasted mats on. Alright. It's a forge. Legion is pretty good. I was going to use... I was going to use the ice bow. But if I can forge a fire bow, I'm going to take that. If I can forge it. Which I don't know if I can. Because I don't know what the mats are. Where my mats are, I should say. Alright, so you start with a bone and then you go down to Pukey Pukey. Pukey... God dang it. And I can do the Angeneth. Well, to a certain degree. Alright, we're taking this one. Oh, it's 15 fangs? Ooh. Oh my gosh. Alright, let's attempt this. What did Jeral post? Great Jeral's. Here we go. I'm a little nervous because Kirin's... Wait, I didn't change my mantle. Let's go with the thunder mantle. Although Vitality could work, I think. First attempt, chat. I'm afraid. I don't know if I'm ready for this. I gotta see the cutscene probably. Four people can join. What the heck? Oh, that's cool. That's cool. Just put me in the middle of nowhere. Daven! I'm going to... I'm going to fight the demon... The demon horse. I'm going to fight the demon horse. Okay, no second... No second footprint anywhere. Oh, there he is. I'm running up the wall like that. Just wait till 49? Well, I am 49. And look what I'm doing. This... This... Ooh. It's about to... It's about to get ugly. Let's do it! Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. I thought he jumped down here. Oh my gosh. Yep, you won the giveaway, Revenant. Congrats, man. What in the world? What entire nation is going on? He is demon unicorn, chat. Of death. I hated him and I haven't even fought the temperate person yet. So, you know I've been for a treat. Oh boy. Quest difficulty has been adjusted for multiplayer, chat. Yes, I have seen the HR 49. Animated short. Oh, I forgot that doesn't work. Would you stop? I'm trying not to do that. Would you stop letting go of the button so early, Waldo? Oh. Did I eat? Yeah, I did eat. You hate to see it, chat. Yeah, absolutely hate to see it. Oh gosh. I keep letting go of my right click too early, chat. And I'm shooting to the side. You hate to see it. I need some heart chill. Woooah, that hit me? I'm going to hide over here for a little bit. You know what that means? You can't heal. None of them are watch. Demon horse. What is this? Okay, I see now. Freaking hot the trot. All over the place. Here's John, me and you, we got this buddy. We got the technology. Me and you, the casual dude here. I didn't apply that coding by the way. Sorry.  Freaking coward. I'm okay. I'm okay, chat. I think I might need a demon powder or two. Oh boy. So flashes don't work on them, huh? This guy has a pills here thing too. That's the same as mine. I'm proud of you. Heart chill. For everybody. Well, see, I stood in the spot that I wasn't supposed to stand in and I got greedy. I saw delicious damage and I was like, I'm a help. It's going to be cool, you know? And it wasn't cool. It actually was very bad, chat. It actually was very bad. I'm just going to put that out there. That was very bad. I need some rations for in nutrients. I'm here.  All right, here we go. That thing. One shot, chat. I feel good. All right, these guys know what they're doing. I don't.  That's what I'm going to do, chat. Oh. You're just going to, uh... You're just going to, uh... We're just going to... We're just going to... Man, that thing went off fast. It went off so fast. Like, really fast. So this time, I'm going to put my mantle on. It's almost done recharging. Got to make sure rain doesn't die. We're going to go full support, chat. We're going to go full support. So what had happened was I had a learning experience. You know what I learned from that? Is that I probably should take something else. I'm thinking heavy bow or bow. I probably do better with bow because I got more control over my positioning. Again, I'm learning, chat. I haven't fought with heavy bow gun in a long time. I only have... It'll be a little bit of a disaster. I need to fight something low level. Like, the last time... It was like HR-14 when I fought with heavy bow gun. All right, posting quests. Let's try it again. Yeah, this guy. Yeah, I like hammer. Hammer is fun, but I can't do hammer with Kieran. No, no, no. That's just not going to happen. That's just not going to happen, chat. All right, this time, we'll try to be a little bit more careful. And that move where he has the waves of lightning. Thou shall not get hit with that. Pretty much where it comes down to. Thou shall not get hit with that. Yeah, I like the higher frame rate, too, man. I really like the higher frame rate. Oh, it's furious John again. He's probably going to leave. I remember this guy. He died twice before. He's probably furious with me, chat. He just went up.  I'm following on my little pony around. And he's going to poop, and I'm going to pick that up, too. He's just like the video, chat. He's jumping up there. I'm just following him around. Hey, man, I need investigations, so I'm... Shoot. All right, for this guy's shift. This guy's got guts. Come to find out that really hurts. That little trounce there. I'm just tickling them now. I'm just trying to attribute some damage. Key here for me is not to die. I can learn as much as I can from the fight. There it is. I'm missing.


Good day, fellow investors! Well, here we are, the most expected value-investing event of the year, Warren Buffett's shareholder meeting. This year a little bit shorter online, but still always great topics to discuss, to analyze, and to see how to apply them to our own investing long-term strategy. If you're a long-term investor, please click like, comment below, share this video. We're going to dig into the topics now. Enjoy! So online version of the Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meetings this week and back quick was asking the question so it was much more efficient than it usually is. Warren Buffett answering the question directly efficiently and in four hours he did much more than usually in even six hours. So let's go over the topics. The structure of the meeting was made in four parts. So his presentation, his discussion about America investing in America, not betting against America, touch on earnings, selling aircrafts, his loss on aircrafts, just a formal meeting, the formal part of the meeting, and then questions by Becky Kick, quick that she got from the public and online. So let's immediately start with his presentation. He created slides and he discussed, okay, how to invest in the current situation with the coronavirus crisis. He called the crisis an interruption in growth. So just an interruption and that over the long-term economy will grow, America will become a better and better country. And you have to believe in the economic future of the country and that he has passed a lot of crisis from the Second World War, Cuban Missile Crisis 9-11 2009, and the American Magic will prevail. He used a lot of examples how the age of the United States is just 231 years, the combined ages of Charlie Munger and himself 185. And just look at what happened in three normal human ages from a population of 3.9 million in 1790, of which 0.6 million were slaves. So from that to what happened today, what is America today, the most powerful economy in the world in just 231 years. Then a lot of interesting slides with historical data from the wealth of the country discussing the Louisiana Purchase, the return on the Louisiana Purchase, how big was the return, how big was the wealth created there. And then comparing to the COVID crisis, how 16 million males that were in 1861 and 6% of that group was killed in the Civil War that lasted five years. That would be to today's equivalent of 4 million people dying. He compared the crisis with the flu in Omaha, the Spanish flu a hundred years ago, how that was deadlier than the current COVID crisis. So there will always be interruptions when it comes to the economy life, that simply life, but you have to believe in the future and you'll do well also through investing and through economic growth. Then talking more specific about stocks, he said from his birthday, the Dow Jones average was 381 points, then it declined 48% to 198 points, then it went up to 240 points and nobody was really expecting a great depression, but then it went down again to 41 points. So from 381 points, 198, 240, 41 points when Warren Buffett was born in the few years after he was born. But again, people survived that invested and even if it took more than 20 years to break even if you bought stocks when Warren Buffett was born, still you could have done well, but simply investing through time and also taking care of those dividends that were coming. And something very peculiar 25 years later from the peak in 1929, commission was set up to investigate whether the market is too hot in 1955 and Benjamin Graham testified, I think it was Congress testifying that the stock market is high, but not as high as it looks. And the rest is history since then, since then $1 invested would have been 100 times that initial investment. And that stocks, the stock market, yes, is high, but it might not be as high as it looks is what Warren Buffett is saying. And later he also discusses interest rates and will touch on that and how that affects stock prices. So his conclusion on his presentation is never ever bet against America, because that's not a smart thing to do, especially in the long term. And that people are innovative, there will be interruptions, that's normal, but the long term strategy, the long term trend is pretty clear. And then on why investing stocks comparing stocks with equities, the 30 year treasury, you're practically losing money. He explained how if you lend money to the government at 1.5 with 2% inflation, you're practically losing money. So stocks are a better long term investment than lending money to the government. Now, for example, as long as those are an investment, not a speculation. So if you invest in an index like the SAP500, you own a cross section of America and you can forget about it. The only problems can arise if you use leverage, if you use psychology, if you have the wrong psychology, then you sell at the wrong time, you panic, you listen to the news, you listen to the rational market giving you constantly a lower and lower price, then you sell at the wrong moment in time. Instead of investing in businesses, when you buy a farm, you buy to produce food, you don't focus on the price of the farm every day. And he said they will continue to buy businesses. On earnings, the earnings currently are not important because A, we don't know the consequences of the current situation on future earnings. So it's not really comparable. B, the 50 billion loss was an accounting loss, okay, because they have to account for the changes in the stock prices, can change again in the next quarters. And then he discussed how 124 billion in cash is not really 40% of the stock market portfolio in cash. It's far less than that, around 20%, when you calculate all the values of all the businesses in the Berkshire holding.  And he said that if a deal comes off around 50, 60 billion, he would take it. So let's say he's sitting on 50, 60 billion of available cash, not that more. And even if it all put together 124 billion, we are at 20% of the portfolio. He has discussed how Berkshire will always be a financial fortress. That's why they have so much cash on the balance sheet. And he praised also Powell for the fast reaction with the Fed, the speed and determination they have showed, whatever it takes mentality started by Mario Draghi in Europe, now copied by the Fed. And on the consequences of the money printing, he says that what would be the consequences of doing nothing is the best question. Now he sold, he closed all his airline positions. So he owned four of the biggest, largest American airlines and he sold everything. They spent around 8 billion to own those top four stocks. They sold at a loss. And he says that he was clearly wrong about airlines. Airline business changed in a major way and they had all to borrow 10 billion. The time for them, even if peak business is there to repay those 10 billions will be very long and very painful. And he doesn't know whether three years from now, how many people will fly. And that's not clear to him. And there are too many planes. And if it's just 80% of the current flying numbers, it's not enough to justify the investments in the new planes in the growth. And this will cost Berkshire money. But it's his mistake. And actually, if you think about it, since ever, he has been against airlines because there's no competitive advantage. And now he found himself, unfortunately, due to this situation, right again and lost money in airlines. But they closed everything, closed the position and took the loss. So very interesting how even Warren Buffet, the long-term investor, is selling when it simply doesn't show like a smart investment. Now a formal part, just quickly discussing some proposals, denying the proposal of a mixed board, et cetera. So we can immediately go to the questions and then again on airlines. So explaining how it's not good on 80% of prior traffic. So he sold and the airlines will be really hurt. And this was something very interesting. He discussed how only big companies were somewhere where he could put his money into owning maximum 10%. So if you think at the market capitalization of Delta Airlines, he can own only 10% on 20-30 billion. That's the limitation he has with investing. So for Buffet to invest in something, the company should be at least 30-40 billion in market capitalization, which eliminates a lot of things where we as individual investors can look at. Then there was a question, should we buy stocks now when he's sitting on so much cash and then he reiterates himself, it's not a large cash position. In case of worst case insurance scenario, he needs to have a lot of cash. And it's about the psychology of investing versus speculation, whether you should invest or not. If you're buying businesses and you don't have to account for that money in the medium, short-term, then you have nothing to fear. And he never felt financial fear. That's what made him a great investor. And if you invest now in stocks, it will work out well over the next 20-30 years, but don't ask him how it will work out over the next one year, two years, three years. Then he also discussed money, how there is no shortage of money in the market. Like it has been the case in 2008-2009, therefore we are not seeing the convertible investments, eight of them that he did back then with the Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, etc. There was a short period with panic in the markets in March, but when that froze, but the Fed acted promptly. And he has no idea what will happen next, but he says they borrowed money and it's a good time to borrow money because of the very low interest rates. And if we look at the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage average, which is something more peculiar for personal borrowing of money, the interest rate on that is very, very low. On the question of performance, how Berkshire underperformed the S&P 500 over the last five, 10 and 15 years, he says that on one hand, yes, size makes it difficult and there is no guarantee about future performance, but he has 99% of his money in Berkshire and then there are also advantages. For example, nobody can do what Berkshire can do in energy, in insurance, nobody can shuffle the money depending on where it's most needed, where is the highest return on capital, depending on the holding company that Berkshire has. Then on oil, it doesn't work at $20 a barrel, production will be down and there is a lot of oil in storage and it will take some time to clear out, so we might see lower prices for longer and therefore there is risk of permanent losses of capital from oil companies to affecting even the banks that are lending to those oil companies and bet that in energy loans, if that happens, then equity will be wiped out, so that's a risk of investing in oil. He knew about that, he knows about that and it's all about the price of oil and he doesn't know where it will go long term. On the question of breaking up Berkshire, he says that it will be a high tax endeavor that eliminates the possibility to move capital around his capital allocation that is one of the best Berkshire advantages. Of course, also discusses Wall Street doesn't get fees if nothing happens, like it is the case with Berkshire. On interest rates, he says that there is more money printing and negative interest rates or low interest rates and he has to see it to believe it that it will not affect inflation somewhere in the future. He doesn't see negative interest rates and more debt for eternity. He was wrong 10 years ago, he might be wrong now, but he is now really saying how we are testing the question with much more force now. The most interesting question in economics, how come we have such low zero interest rates, negative interest rates and no inflation. He is looking at the answer, he doesn't have the answer, but he is ready for anything and they also discussed pricing power of their businesses like the railroad, like the energy businesses that will do good in an inflationary environment. The question was related on the US government defaulting because of the huge debt and he simply said that can't be happening because the government owns the printing press and if you own the printing press you cannot default and how the debt will just grow and grow and it's not a concern because they are borrowing in their own currency therefore no default. The currency, my addition is can lose value real purchasing power but that's a different story. And then the most interesting question answered at the end on buybacks how okay if you need the money to keep growing as company then it's not intelligent to do buybacks you have to buy only below what the business is worth and then he says how saying like okay we as a company are going to do 5 or 10 billion in buybacks over the next year is insane it's crazy because then you are not thinking about the most important things when it comes to buybacks which is price at some price it does pay to do buybacks at some it doesn't but as you announce it to the market then that's not really sane and then if some companies do stupid financial engineering to do buybacks to leverage the maximum out of their balance sheet he was practically referring to here to Boeing that is something that he says it's stupid.
