The signal oil program, the whistler. For the signal oil program, the whistler. I'm the whistler, and I know many things for I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak. Friends, it's time for The Whistler, rated by independent research, the most popular West Coast program. And remember, let every traffic signal remind you, with new signal gasoline, you do go farther than ever. Look for the familiar big yellow and black circle sign that identifies those popular signal service stations throughout the West from Canada to Mexico. The Whistler's Brain Story, The Brass Ring Not on the platform in front of the sideshow tent, while Duke made his pitch, smiling her best professional smile at the sea of faces below her, reserving a personal intimate wink for the tall gray haired man with a carnation in his buttonhole. Babe was an intelligent girl, and the man with a carnation had money. She could smell it a mile off, and it didn't hurt to be nice to the customers, especially the ones with money, like dapper middle-aged Mr. Bundy, staring up at her from the crowd with stars in his eyes. The most sensational, most stupendous, most gigantic show in the carnival. Wait till you hear. He's here again. Yeah, yeah, I see him. Mr. Finn, five bucks for a ticket and keep the change. Great guy, Duke, great guy. Here's something. Ah, what? Mr. Finn's name is Bundy, and I'm gonna marry you. What are you talking about? Take it easy. Go on with the pitch. You're crazy, babe. Now get on with the pitch. Babe, you don't know what you're talking about. Did you hear what he said? You lose the crowd. They're drippin' off. Okay. This way, folks. What a dance she does. What a dance. You have never, never, never seen anything so colossal, so stupendous, right from the top of that gorgeous blonde head to the tips of her toes. She's hot. She's on fire. She's burning down. That's more than enough for some of them. Step right up, step right over here and have your money ready. Two bits, only two bits, the fourth part of a dollar. Come on, folks, give them room, give them room. Here you are. Oh, five bucks again. Yes, you can keep the change. Thanks, Mr. Bundy. Oh, Miss Logan has told you. Yeah, she told me. Sucker. Mr. Bundy. Oh, oh, just a minute. Nice and respectably. Good evening, Georgeette. Um, am I... Oh, no, no, not at all, Mr. Bundy. Come on in. I don't want to include... Forget it. I've got lots of time. Hey! What's the matter with you? We're ready to go. You better get on with it. Customers are, Mr. Bundy. Get a little over-anxious once in a while. I shouldn't wonder. Your dance is very good. Oh, you like it, huh? I haven't, Mr. Knight, in three weeks. Well, maybe I ain't good enough for the Ritz Plaza, given their money's worth. You certainly do. Oh, well, I don't quite know how to take that, Mr. Bundy. I see here, Georgeette. Must you always call me Mr. Bundy? Well, after all... Charles. Make it Charles, will you? All right. Charles. Why do you think I've come here night after night for three weeks? Oh, I guess maybe you like me a little.  All of those people out there. Well, Charles, I can't help it if... No, I know. The trouble is, I... I don't want it that way. What do you mean, Charles? Quite simple. I don't want to share you with anyone else. Oh. In plain words, Georgeette, I want you to marry me. Oh, gee, Mr. Bundy, I mean Charles. I don't blame you for being surprised. You see, I was rather surprised myself. Gee, I've got to think it over. You know, a girl can't go into this. I mean, tie up her whole life like that without looking at all sides to it. Of course, Georgeette. You know, I've got a career here. My whole future. You don't need to worry about your future. I'll take care of that. But... but how? I have more money than I could possibly spend, Georgeette.  There are so many fellas. Well, I'll make it legal if you want. I'll get a lawyer and have an agreement drawn. Oh, will you, Charles? Will you? Babe, I told you that way... Just a minute, Duke. Just a minute, nothing. You're going to tear the house down if I stall them any longer. No, I'm sorry, Charles. I got to do my show. What about it, Georgeette? Yes, Charles. Yes.  Like I told you, Duke, it's none of your business. It's a sell-out. That's what it is. Money's important, sure. I stand out there on the midway, seven nights a week. Bust with my lungs out. I hustle pots, sold peanuts when I didn't have it. But I wouldn't... What wouldn't you do, Duke? I wouldn't sell out, babe. You've got money on your mind right now, haven't you? What do you mean? You're through without me. That's all washed up. That's what's on your mind, ain't it? Not the sell-out. It's what am I going to sell when the babe's gone?  I'll say what I want. The brass ring, ain't it? You've been on the merry-go-round for six years and you finally grab hold of the brass ring. A sucker. At last, you've got yourself a sucker.  I've never seen you look like that. Why, sure. That's it, ain't it?  Past tense, baby. Not now. Not anymore. Too bad, Duke. My heart belongs to Bundy. If you're ever in a shipwreck, give me a bus, will you, babe? I'll torch your nanker. The prologue of the brass ring, the signal oil company brings you another strange tale by the Whistler. If you've lived out West any length of time, you know that Signal Gasoline is famous as the go farther gasoline. And if you've noticed Signal's recent magazine, newspaper and billboard advertising, you know that you now go farther than ever with today's Signal Gasoline. Well, what does this all mean to you? Economy. Yes. But even more than that, it means extra performance from your car. For in gasoline, it takes extra quality to go farther. Now, let me make that point clear. When science employed the modern magic of catalytic cracking to put amazing new power into today's Signal Gasoline, they naturally gave you quicker starting, faster pickup, and quieter, higher anti-knock.  That's why Signal says, look to your speedometer for the best proof of gasoline quality. It takes extra quality to go farther. Good reason why so many wise drivers are switching to Signal, the famous go farther gasoline. Now, back to the whistler. And Mr. Bundy came through nobly with the legal arrangements. Something about the marriage of six months in Connecticut is Mrs. Bundy to demonstrate good faith. Have your freedom to do what you please after that. With a solid feeling that the money set up for you in trust by Mr. Bundy, will be all yours in the event of his death. That's all, babe. Six tedious months with Mr. Bundy. Of course, it seemed like six years, but it had to come to an end sometime. I can't give you your dad. Don't bother me. I'm busy packing. What do you mean packing? We're going to the Williamson's, darling. Just for the day, there's no packing to be done. You're going to the Williamson's, Charles. Not me. Now go away, Ron. I'm busy. Where are you going? You didn't really think it would work, did you, Charles? What wouldn't work? I came through with my end of the bargain. Six months. I don't want any more. Why kid yourself? I'm not Mrs. Charles Bundy. It just ain't there. I'm Babe Logan, remember? You haven't given it a try. What do you think I've been doing for six months? Twiddling my thumb? Oh, now you've got to be reasonable, Georgette. It takes time. It's trouble time. It's precious. You've got to be careful with it. If you're not, you wake up some morning and find yourself pushing 40 and out of a job. That's why I'm going back. Where are you going? Tell me. Back to the drafty tents. The smell of damp sawdust, catcalls, wolf whistles. You're not serious. Just try and stop me, Charles. Try. I won't let you. They laugh at me. They'll all laugh at me. With your dough, let them. Listen, Charles, I don't want to hurt you, honest. I want to let you down easy. I'm not Connecticut and I never will be. I'm a carnival girl. I belong there in a side show. But a guy like Duke to make the pitch for me, see? I'll beat it. Well, I got to pack. It'll work, George, yet. Really, it will. You've got to give me another chance. I said I'm going. All right, then. I'm going with you. Huh? You get tired of it after a few days. You're different now. Hello, Charles.  I'll do just what I did before. What do you mean? I want you near me. That's all. You change your mind and I won't get in your way. I'll just stand around and be there just like before. I just won't listen to me. I tell him over and over again.  And a poor sucker.  Don't hand me that, baby. You took him for a ride. Now that you've got that paper in your safe deposit, box your... What, Duke? You don't care what happens to him. Well, you don't have to make it worse. You don't have to keep letting him into the show. Why not? Pays his dough, five bucks, and keep the change. Ah, it gives me the creeps. Every show, there he is in the first row, waiting for me at the door when I go home. I guess you'll have to figure that one out for yourself. Maybe I will. There were strings on that brass ring, weren't there, babe? It's not quite as easy to drop, Mr. Bundy, as it was to pick him up. And all you have to do is look into those earnest, pleading eyes of his to realize it'll go on as long as he lives, night after night, day after day, as long as he lives. You wish there were some other way, don't you, babe?  It comes to a climax on Monday night as you leave by the stage entrance after your 9 o'clock show. He's there waiting for you as usual.  Monday night, a quiet night at the carnival. As good a night as any. Hello, Georgeette. Charles. How long till your next show? Oh, about 30 minutes, would you? Would you like to take a walk around the grounds? Why? Well, of course. I'd be delighted. I'd love them. Haven't been on one for years. You know, this might be hard for you to believe, but I haven't either. That is odd. Sky ride, a tunnel of luck. Used to scare me to death. Let's try it, Dave. What do you say? Uh-uh, you gotta watch your blood pressure. Oh, so that's what you're thinking. I'm too old for you. Oh, don't be silly. Come on, let's win a Cupid dollar something. No, I insist. The sky ride. Too high for me. I'd just as soon stay on the ground. Now who's afraid? Too old, am I? Well, we'll see about that. Are you game? All right, Charles. I'm game. Let's take the last seat, huh? I feel better if I can see people ahead of me. Still nervous, eh? Come on. Here's the last seat. Better take your hat off, Charles. Keep your safety belt buckle, please. Hold your hats. Keep your safety belt buckle, please. Here we go. Thanks. I got scared. Go ahead. I used to go around with a guy who was awfully foolhardy. You know what he used to do? Can't imagine. What? He used to unhitch the belt and stand up right at the top of the hill just before you go down. Oh, what's so unusual about that? Well, awful. Dangerous, don't you think? Don't think it's so dangerous? What?  He was young while he could do anything.  Well, watch this. I opposed the belt. Charles, we're almost at the top. Get down. Get down. Right, Mrs. Bundy, all right. So it was an accident. It was just a mighty peculiar accident. That's all.  I gave you the straight stuff. And if you think you can sit back and make a lot of nasty shots... Sit down, babe. That goes for you too, Drew. I said sit down. Okay, okay. I'll sit down. But I'm not going to take any more... Just a minute, babe. Sorry, Sergeant. The dame's a little high strung. Quite a jolt you know, losing her only husband that way. Yeah. I guess it was. You can skip all that stuff about peculiar accidents. I'm sorry, Mrs. Bundy. That's the way it's going on the record. Peculiar that the money goes to you and your husband's death. Peculiar that he decided to take you on the roller coaster the first time he'd been on one in 20 years. Peculiar you picked the last seat. Peculiar his safety belt happened to be unbuckled. All right. So what? So we leave it there. No proof. Nothing else we can do. By the way, the passenger three seats ahead of you happened to turn around just as you hit the top of the hill. What do you mean? He saw your husband a second after he fell. Oh. Too bad he didn't turn around a second sooner. That's all, Mrs. Bundy. You can go. So it's over now, all over. Mr. Bundy has gone for good and the brass ring is yours to keep. You ought to be able to relax now, get back in the swing. Work 10 shows a day to pass the time until the probate is complete and the money arrives. Yes. It's smarter to keep right on working as if nothing had happened. No use exciting any more suspicion, is there, babe? You can't decide whether or not it's imagination, but it seems as if they all suspect you. Your friends along the midway are noticeably cooler, more distant since the accident. But it doesn't matter now. The brass ring is yours. You can tell them all where to get off. Then you suddenly realize it isn't over after all. Two weeks later, just before the nine o'clock show, Duke comes into your dressing room. Yeah? Glad it, I guess. What's the matter? Are we pals again?  Take what off? The chip on your shoulder, I ain't looking for a fight. You're smart. It ain't easy for a broken down vaudeville ham to find a job these days. And in a couple of weeks, you might be working for me. Wonderful. What's so funny? Don't look now, baby, but your conscience is shown. Why, you... Sweetheart, don't blow up on me. I'm the only friend you got left.  If I get it, will you? Maybe it was an accident, maybe it wasn't. I'm still working the show, ain't I? What do you want? What'd you come here for? I got something that might interest you, kid. There was a guy out there at the last show. Looks like he's gonna take up where Mr. Bundy left off. What do you mean? Can't figure it out. Pays five bucks for a ticket and tells me to keep the change. Sat in the same seat Bundy had. What is it? What do you want? I don't know. Thought maybe you might. Well, by the way, the guy's out there now waiting for the next show. That's all, babe. Just thought I'd drop by and give you something to think about. You see him there when you go on for the next show. Sitting in the same front row seat Mr. Bundy used to occupy. And you wish Duke hadn't said anything about it. You might not have noticed him for a while, anyway. He's much younger and almost good-looking. But he never smiles. Just sits there as you go through your dance. Never applauding or whistling like the others. Just sitting there, watching, watching. He's there the next day and the next. The same cold stare. The same expression. You try and ignore it, but it just won't work, will it, babe? You have a pretty good idea why he's there. And you know there'll be a showdown sooner or later. It might as well be now. You down there. Me? Yeah, you. Come here a minute. Okay. This way. Who are you, mister? My name is Woody.  What makes you think I'm a cop? You've been in that same seat six days in a row now. Five shows a day. That makes 30 times you've seen the show, right? I like the act. Nobody likes it that much, mister. I'm satisfied. I'm not. Get it? No. It's easy. I don't want to look down at that seat and see the great stone face anymore. I know a good way to get rid of me. Yeah? Go for a ride on the roller coaster?  Didn't you see the report, officer? Did you look it up in the files? Accident, it says. Big black letters. Accident.  Wait a minute, babe. Hey, keep it down. Will you have your buddy outside? Oh, it's you. Get him out of here, Duke. What's the matter, pal? The lady wants to get rid of me. So I'd be happy to leave forever if she'd do me a little favor. Huh? What's that? Take a ride with me on the roller coaster? Oh? That what made you blow up, babe? Get rid of him. I don't want to see him anymore. Understand? Why don't you want to take a ride on the roller coaster, babe? You think so, too, don't you? You think I killed him? What are you blowing up for if you didn't? What's there about the roller coaster? Get you down. So... All right, mister detective. I'll show you. Come by after the last show tonight and we'll take your ride. How many how many, please? I'll take them all. My girl and I want to be alone this trip. I get it. It'll be four bucks. Is that a big enough drop for you? Oh, it's so-so. That's a big one up ahead. Yeah. That means the long about here is where you unhitched his safety belt. Skip it, will you? That won't get you anywhere. Right about here, wasn't it, babe? Right here? He did it himself.  You killed him. He didn't kill him. He stood up and he tripped. He didn't trip. You pushed him. This would make me talk. I thought there was more brains than the police person. Oh, wait a minute. You can't slap me. The police have nothing to do with this, babe. Charles Bundy was my father. He never said anything about it. It doesn't matter if you talk or not, babe. I'm not depending on the law anymore.   Safety belt. There. No. No, you can't. Sometimes a law doesn't work, babe. Sometimes a man has to take things in his own hands. Then let go of me. You cheap, chiseling tramp. You wanted his money, didn't you? You had that in the back of your mind right from the first. Listen to me. Listen to me. Will you please? You're going over, babe. Just the way he did. Oh, no. That's true, babe. You're... We'll return in just a moment with the strange ending of tonight's story. You know, the proof of the pudding, they say, is in the eating. And the proof of the service you get at dealer-owned signal gasoline stations is, after all, in what actual customers say about it. That's why we're so happy to receive letters, such as this one from Mrs. Leon F. Marsh of Berkeley, California. Who wrote? During a recent trip, which took me from Berkeley as far south as Calexico on the Mexican border, I met with courtesy from every signal dealer with whom I traded. Especially, I want to commend Harvey Nathanson of 4,400 Beverly Boulevard, Hollywood, whose service was both prompt and complete in every detail. I never had to request that my windshield be wiped or my tires checked. These and many other services were done automatically and with a smile. It's men like Harvey Nathanson who make trading with independent signal dealers a pleasure. Mrs. Marsh, on behalf of my sponsor, Signal Oil Company, I want to take this opportunity to thank you and the many other kind drivers who have dropped me a line. Telling of their experiences with signal products or of little express services you have enjoyed at dealer-owned signal stations. It's letters like yours that make independent signal dealers want to do an even better job of helping today's cars run better and last longer. Now, back to The Whistler. So the career of Babe Logan, Carnival Dancer, came to an end. It was a sensational ending, of course. Barker's pitchman, performers, all of her colleagues gathered around the broken body lying among the timber supports. All talking at once. Not in guarded whispers anymore, but openly of the suspicion, the terrible doubt that hung over the midway like a cloud after the first accident a few weeks before. And after the second accident, Duke had to change his pitch a little. Not much, just a little. Well, you've seen her do that dance. What a dance, folks. What a dance. Just like the one with the seven paddles. Only this little lady throws away six of them before she starts. Yes, she starts right in with number seven. You've got to see Millie, folks. Millie, the girl with a million thrills. Step right up, folks. Now that Babe was gone, there was a new attraction in Duke's tent. An ambitious young redhead named Millie. And at that very moment, a few blocks away at police headquarters, Sergeant Case had changed his approach, too. There's no use going over it all again. We've been through it before. But it was an accident. He tried to push me. He slipped. I was the one who was supposed to go out on that roller coaster. Sure, sure. You were supposed to go out, but you didn't. He fell just like his father did two months ago. Both of them accidents, huh? Can I help that? It was an accident. Maybe, maybe. Maybe they were Babe. But you don't really think a jury is going to believe that, do you? No. No, I guess you're right. They'd never believe me now. The Whistler will bring you another strange tale. The Whistler is broadcast for your entertainment by the marketers of signal, gasoline and motor oil, and fine quality automotive accessories, and by your neighborhood signal dealer. Featured in tonight's program were Doris Singleton and Eddie Marr. This program, directed by George W. Allen, based on a story by David Gillespie, music by Wilbur Hatch, is transmitted to our troops overseas by the Armed Forces Radio Service. That whistle is your signal for the signal oil program, The Whistler. This is Dick Wells speaking, reminding you to look for those familiar yellow and black circle signs that identify those popular signal oil stations throughout the West from Canada to Mexico. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.

Rydyn ni'n ddweud i gael ei gael cysylltu i'r holl o'r gweithio. I welcome the chance to come to this house and address this issue. We all wish that there was one thing, just one, that we could do to stop this violence, but there are no shortcuts. There is no one single solution. Tackling serious violence requires coordinated action on multiple fronts. First, we need a strong law enforcement response. This includes the offensive weapons bill currently before Parliament that will introduce new offences to help tackle knife crime. We also need to give police the confidence to use existing laws such as stop and search. Second, we must intervene early to stop young people from becoming involved in crime. We have amended the bill to introduce knife crime prevention orders, which will help prevent young people from carrying knives. Alongside our £200 million youth endowment fund, the £22 million early intervention youth fund has already funded 29 projects endorsed by police and crime commissioners. Third, we must ensure that the police have the resources to combat serious violence. I'm raising police funding to record levels next year, up to £970 million more, including council tax. On Wednesday, I will meet with chief constables to listen to their experiences and requirements. Fourth, we must be clear on how changing patterns of drug misuse are fuelling the rise in violent crime. I launched the independent drugs misuse review under Dame Cowell Black in response to this. Fifth, we need all parts of the public sector to prioritise tackling serious violence, and that is why I will very shortly be launching a consultation on a new statutory duty, a statutory public health duty, to combat violent crime and to help protect young people. Mr Speaker, we must all acknowledge that this is an issue that transcends party lines. Politics can be divisive, but if there was ever an issue to unite our efforts and inspire us to stand together, then surely this is it.


Hello. Let me start my video up here. Here we go. Hi. How are you? I'm doing okay-ish. Let me, I need to hurry up and get an agenda together for us. I am filling in for Carolyn today who is vacationing MBS. So you know we're fun, do you know? Don't, I think staycation. Oh, okay. Well, yeah. That's the only option. The only safe option. Right. I don't think I've met Scott before, but since I'm kind of newish, I don't know if you're new too or- No, I'm new as well. I'll introduce myself. I work at Microsoft. I run the cloud advocacy, sorry, for containers. And I went with Karen, and she was like, you definitely should be involved in this. So today is my first day. Welcome. Welcome. So I was having a couple of Zoom issues at the beginning. I couldn't get my audio and things working. That's cool. Yeah, I'm new wish. So I've been here for a couple of so that's why I've never sure because I know there's sometimes people skip and I was like, okay, I don't know. So I was like, yeah, I'm with boy and by the way. So the company behind Lincordie. So now I've got the agenda. And today, what is today? December 8th already. All right. This is actually the first time I've written a day today for some reason. So that's why I was like, wait, I've been working for a while today. Why do I just know this? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Right. You know, the good news, though, it means that 2020 is almost over. Isn't that like awesome? Holy.  It's like, I'm like, I've never felt like this about a year, but this is like, I want this to be over. And then hold on. So I've already done it. I've been working on that. It's kind of like a contributor. Framework or contributor growth framework. And then, well, I'm looking at the last agenda. Recruiting playbook and onboarding experience. So. Scott. Thank you for coming to our show here. Karen. Hello, Catherine. Hello. Let's start this. So everybody be kind to each other. It is only four of us. So feel free to just interject. And that's it. And then outside of contributor ladder and then contributor growth framework. And then we'll, I'll also just do a little tab for recruiting playbook. Anything else. Anyone have any other agenda items that they wanted to bring up today outside of general discussion. Okay. So let's see. Catherine, why don't we start with you then? You want to tell us a little bit about the contributor growth framework, maybe catch Scott up to since that's new. And tell us what's going on. Yeah, let me, where's the time. So one of the things or the reason. We kind of looking for the, where is it? Okay, doesn't matter. I had it up. So one of the things that we from Lincoln D. We're hoping to get out of it as kind of. Understanding or creating like processes that can help contributors, you know, Contribute more code or participate in different forms. Like there's also like non-code contributions, which are important, right? Like helping on stack and so on. And during our first meeting. I was like, okay, I'm going to start with you. The big feedback was like, Hey, all your struggles are actually everyone struggles. Like everyone is having exactly those issues, asking exactly those questions. And then so after the meeting, I was like, well, if we need to know this, like, this could be like a little project, right? Like creating a framework. For different companies, like for different projects that are. Small to growing, like what are the different best practices that other more mature companies have done? How, yeah, how, how are they really kind of helping people go through that process and incentivize them to be more active. And so interestingly, that all ties in into what, well, not interestingly because the name of this group actually says it all, right? But like there are like different initiatives, like the recruitment playbook that hi, Charles, that Paris is working on and Karen is working on the ladder. And I think the way I see it is like, like what I was envisioning is a little bit broader. And then, but it ties in directly. Like, so I'm sure there are a lot of different resources like the ladder, like the recruitment playbook that are more detailed, that kind of plug in to that, right? It's like, okay, they're more concrete. And so I've been interviewing different, well, I've interviewed two people so far. So Paris and another person today. And I'm trying to create that. And that's where I wanted to see because I have this new, I probably closed it already. So basically it starts with how do you motivate. So the first step is like, basically how do you motivate contributors, users to contribute? So that's the first step, right? Like, and then the next step is like, how do you help them through the process, through the PR submission process to make them to set them up for success. And then how do you, the next step is like, how do you like motivate them to, or like make sure they continue contributing and motivate them to go up the ladder, right? And then the last part is like, how do you incentivize people to contribute more than just code? Or like, not, yeah, not more. Like some people may just want to contribute different things. So, yeah, so those are kind of like the different parts. And what I'm doing now is kind of interviewing people and trying to gather information and then like putting it into our document. And that would then point to these different other documents that Paris and Karen are working on basically. So that's how I, but it's very early stage. Can I just jump in here? I think this is the reason why Karen asked me to join is I'm actually working on the Twitch stream to do exactly that. So you get someone from a CNCF project and work with developers and show them how to contribute. Yeah. Well, yeah, that's, you're kind of, are you still there? At the moment, I've only done, sorry, my Zoom's freezing up. So I'm not sure what's happening. But at the moment, I've done the video with Jeremy Rickard. And that was solely on the release team for Kubernetes. But I'm super interested to get all seen. Yeah, projects on board and do to our Twitch stream about how they can work with developers to develop on board and sort of have like a coding example and some things that they can work on to start getting more people contributing to. Yeah. Like if you're interested, what we can do is maybe set up like a separate meeting. I can show you what we have so far. And if you want to kind of help on that front, that would be awesome. And I think now he's frozen. Okay, we lost. Yeah. I'm having some issues. I mean, I think. Yeah. I was suggesting that Scott rejoin the call, maybe. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I'll just rejoin. Yeah, but in general Paris, what I just wanted to kind of, you know, say like where we are at and it's very at the beginning is kind of like. So I think it's going well. And I'm, I'm, I'm each conversation is kind of useful. And the interesting thing is that the feedback is positive too. So today I met with Carlisia and she was like, Oh, I want to know this too. And I kind of gave away some of the things that you kind of mentioned. And she was like, Oh my God, I have to do notes here. So it's like even for someone working in a big company, it's like a VM where she was like, really like, Oh yeah, this is like, we can use it too. So it's good feedback so far. Cool. All right. And then anybody else have any questions for contributor growth framework. All right. And then Karen, I think the last agenda item we have for contributor ladder is just to get it approved by sod. And Matt, who are our TOC representatives, and then they take it and so that we can graduate it. That is that correct. Cause I was decided on, I think on the last call. You and yeah, talk about, okay. Yeah. I think it was like, if you were, if you were okay with how it was, we will wrap in our TOC folks. Okay. Well, so I brought it up for the first time during the column and I'm going to drop a link to the contributor ladder template that I made. And so if anyone has any suggestions, maybe let's wrap it up by Friday. Do I need to do anything or like who brings it to them? I will. I mean, well, to me or Josh or somebody, because we were bringing some other templates to them as well. And then, so we'll do a final call for comments on the mailing list. Maybe today. Scott and Matt final call for comments. And just now remembering, did you say something about like. Having a section at the bottom with the resources that we referenced.  That would be good. Like, like the raw, like the raw resources pretty much. Like, you know, if there's like good, like the Kubernetes community one and. And then like the Porter one. And stuff like that. Yeah. All right. Cool. All right. And then so for those who are new to the call and are like, what the heck did they just say? Karen did a contributor ladder for us and collaborated with a couple of other folks. And now we are about to graduate that out of a. Draft state. So this is sort of the last call for comments. So if you have any comments for that, Karen is dropping the link into the chat here. And I'm going to put it right on the agenda as well. So that is the last call for comments. And then we will invite our TOC. We have TOC liaisons for each thing under CNCF. And we'll invite them to review our. Templates and guidance so that we can get the official stamp of approval for guidance. All right. Any questions for Karen? All right. Josh. Hello. It's great. I just wanted to say that we found it very useful and great. So thanks for putting all the work in that. Karen. Hey, Paul. Yeah. I'm hoping to use this myself for some of my. So I was invested. Well, that's all the idea. It's the same, you know, like we're doing it because we need it. And then like, but we just noticed it's not only us. Like there was a whole community unit. So it's like, that's the goal, right? All right. And then. Josh, did you have something for the career where you're just hanging out? Just dialing in. I did not have anything for the agenda. Although I am very happy to see the contributor letter documentation, which is awesome. All right. And then we are welcoming even more comments for the recruiting playbook. We're also welcoming collaborators. The link is inside of the agenda for that. I do have tons of. There's already comments and things to add, et cetera. So we are still in a very much draft state there. Please get the word out to other folks in your projects as well. If they're interested or if they know something that's really worked for them, or if they really know something that didn't work for them. Whatever, get the word out. This is the how to recruit. And what I mean by that also is like outreach programs. Issue and PR triage strategies because obviously people are already on GitHub. So how do you, how do you lure them in? With that kind of a strategy approach, et cetera. I will share that link also in chat as well as the agenda. So like Catherine mentioned, this will be part of that. Framework questions, concerns, comments about the recruiting playbook. I mean, we're still so early in stages. Is this part of the like set of templates or like set of talks you're going to try and get approved this week? No, no, this one's still. No, we're still far out. I mean, not far, but we're still in the middle of it. Yeah, so we still have some time for that. And like I said, call for participation for those who would like to collaborate. All right. And then the last item that I have until, and then we can open up for open discussion. I'm not pushing this one. I'm not pushing this one. I'm not pushing this one. No. No, no, this one's still. No, we're still far out. I mean, not far, but we're still, I'm not pushing this one. No. I'm like. Like in the back of my head, I'm like, say yes. I'm like, I'm not pushing this one. I'm like, I'm not pushing this one. I'm like, I'm not pushing this one. So the last item that I have until, and then we can open up for open discussion. Well, this kind of is honestly, this is sort of like open discussion. I stood on a platform in governance. I think Charles already heard this earlier. But one of the things that. Here, I'm actually going to copy the issue. One of the things that. I've done thoroughly this year is read Nadia's book twice. She's an author. She's a. She's a writer. And she has been able to maintain. Open-source projects and like how, how the whole thing works. And it's beautiful. And the thing that really came to me. While reading it is a lot of the problems that. We have today. She kind of. Not necessarily solved by any means. But she did. Hold on. Share. it, make it make sense. So in the book, and if if you haven't read it, I'll just like edits is a very TLDR but in the book, she goes on to sort of create classification systems for projects because she believes that a lot of the times maintainers are kind of comparing themselves from like apples to, you know, trees, and not necessarily in the same thing. So they think or fork, you know, some type of community operation or procedure thinking that that's going to go for them when it really doesn't. So I'm trying to think in that way too and how can we create community taxonomies that make sense for CNCF projects because you hear a lot of the, you know, both subjective and objective comments about like what is open source and what is a project for CNCF and what is a graduated project for CNCF. And we have a bunch of graduation requirements now. But a lot of times we'll hear like, well, you know, not every project is Kubernetes, so therefore not every project needs to run like Kubernetes. So this just sort of a discussion that I wanted to bring up today, it does sort of hit on a little bit of governance, but it also hits on a lot of contributor growth, because I think that a lot of what we are prescribing to people and telling them how they can do a thing is really off, it's really based off of like what they want out of their project and what they want their project to be. So for instance, in the case of, you know, the classification system that Nadia pushed through, she says that projects all fall under these four buckets, one's Federation, one's a stadium, one's a club, and then the other one's a toy. So you can imagine the toys are like people's pet open source projects and things like that. So toys probably wouldn't be acceptable projects for CNCF, right? Or maybe they would only be acceptable projects for Sandbox. So I'm trying to think of how to tie this also into badging and elevate badging and like read me badging and like community repo badging into something that's a little bit more modern that can bubble up this information more than just like the hearsay that comes around and like the Twitter and the tweets and whatever. And we can actually classify projects on what they are and then provide classification definitions. And so for instance, in the case of those four buckets that Nadia used, Kubernetes would be a Federation and we would be probably a Federation steering, for instance. So that's sort of a long-winded rant for where I was kind of going with, I would love to kick off the badging process. So if anybody would love to help with this or if you feel like I've hit any notes that you care about, I would love to work with you on this, too. Because for instance, I think this could really play into like the contributor growth framework because we're kind of trying to give examples and guidance for projects. But in the case of, for instance, link or D, like maybe you don't need 100 maintainers, right? Maybe you don't need that. Maybe you just need 50 maintainers that stick around and that you have constant like, you know, maybe term limits and stuff like that. Like that's just like an example, but we could get that out of coming up with like project types and then like subtypes, kind of like, you know, birds, having given that example lately. Katherine, you look like you're thinking, what are you thinking? No, I think it sounds interesting. And as I said, like I'm super willing to help on these projects. I think probably I would want to get the other one a little bit more further along, not to work on several things at the same time. Just I'm afraid to get distracted, you know, sidetracked. But like in general, I think this is all, you know, it's at the end, it's like all part of one thing. It's like it's different where it's like you're looking at different aspects, but it's all about, you know, making an open source project successful and have a thriving contributor community, right? So, right. Yeah. Yeah. And it's just like, you know, I feel bad for some projects that kind of feel like they get lumped in with Kubernetes when that's not necessarily like how they operate. And they don't have to either kind of thing. So it just goes back to this age old debate of A, what's open source and B, what's an appropriate project for CNCF. So that's why I was trying to get on the wavelength. Sorry you heard I have to hear that twice, Charles. And Josh, for that matter. Oh, you're on mute, Charles, if you're talking to me. Don't worry, I talk to my monitor all the time.  I'm like, no, thank goodness. I have to unplug and replug my headphones every once in a while. No, I think it's, I think it's good. I'm super excited to get the book from you. I want to learn about it some more as well. Like I said, this is something that Catherine and I have been spending time on and I've been reading through other books as well. So I am curious to like, I'm in that process of like, how much information can I sponge together, like just absorb, and then how can we apply that to this working group as a broader approach and then the LinkedIn project specifically. All right, well, I'm going to continue to like make some inroads here, aka make this makes more sense. Like I said, this has just been in like my notes and I'm just tired of having half baked notes. So I just want to elevate stuff. Any other, anybody have any like project, like, so I know LinkedIn folks are on the line. Any projects that have questions or you want to talk about anything or anybody want to like Catherine, do you want to ask your live questions? We still have time or we can give you all time back because we've officially hit the agenda. Yeah, I think that's a question. Oh, I was going to say that I'm actually fine. I think that the process that was suggested before, like I don't feel like I'm ready to share too much right now. So that's kind of it's still kind of so we can do that maybe at a different time when we have when it's further along. And then Karen, that you're on the hook now. Okay, I don't know if this is right for to ask this question or if these resources already do this and I just haven't found them. But so as some of you know, I'm a community manager for Helm and we are like CNCS. CNCS asked me wanting to basically do a contributor summit of our own for Helm sometime next year. And I was wondering if there's like a framework for how Kubernetes does does theirs documented anywhere. Yes, very much documented inside of the community repo. Is that something we want to elevate to the CNCS level, like within this? Yes. Yeah, but I mean, my only problem with that is I'm going to have 70 contributor summits. So this is why I've been advocating for us to have like mega contributor summits so that we don't have to have 70 contributor summits. Yeah. But yeah, no, I mean, I can elevate any yeah, we can elevate any of that guidance in into here on for sure. Oh, also actually, that reminds me, hold on Catherine and Charles, like men thought there. If you want to help. All right. The next thing was not that not that either. I'm just taking you all on a ride with me through my GitHub tabs. All right, this one. So in the in Slack right now, Carolyn did the she netlified I made that a verb now netlified the site that she created for us. So this will be housed on some kind of contributors at CNCF.io site. It's going to host some kind that like this is sort of a just I'm putting this really quick together because we've had a couple issues about getting a contributor site.  Contributors can have a place to have info bubbled up. So if you're in our Slack channel, do a couple of clicks. I'll get that right now. And then you can see the preview. So if you all have any ideas or anything that is not listed here that you feel like the site would benefit, I will be recruiting some more folks. I'll be recruiting some more folks to help with the site. So that's why I'm getting sort of like a punch list together of stuff we want so that we can recruit some more contributors for it. But yeah, this is it. So like I said, comments are welcome. So we've got the I'm a maintainer, I'm a contributor. And then about, which is like about us at a meta level. And then we'll also have a maintainers circle page just will, you know, where where we'll all converse and hang out when we're up and running there. But now I can't find the dang here. Yep. So I'm about to set this issue. So yeah, like I said, feel free to add anything that you would like. And but like that this will ultimately where all those templates and things that we're doing will bubble up to obviously the repo will still be there for folks to fork it. But it'll just have a little bit better information discovery. So that's really it for us today though. And let's see all have any other discussion topics, questions, let me actually put on the agenda, the contributor summit stuff. I'll do the tab again, summit guidance. Otherwise we got time back. I mean, I can hang out. So I'm trying to tell you. Well, I mean, like sometimes we're just more efficient, I guess. Yeah. Let's see. All right. That's it. Thanks, everyone. Bye. Thanks so much for your work, y'all. And Scott, welcome to the show. Thank you. I just like to say I'll put my hand up to help on the framework, the contributor framework. So yeah, I don't know where to start to help. But I'll ping you on slack and then we can start working from there. Yeah, sounds good. See y'all. Thanks, Scott. Thank you. Bye.


Continuing on from our previous video, we're going to start by answering the question, how can chromatography be used to determine the composition and purity of substances? In essence, chromatography is a separation technique, so it can be used to separate out different components of a mixture based on the strength of their intermolecular reactions. If our sample is not a mixture, but is instead a pure substance, we should have no separation into components. Often, however, our mixture will probably not be pure, and so we will want to quantify the purity of our substance. This means we need to determine how much of each component in the anolate mixture, which is extremely difficult to do with paper chromatography. And now we're up to our fourth and final question, what are some different kinds of chromatography? We're going to take a quick look at three different kinds of chromatography, and then summarize their characteristics. First up is thin layer chromatography, or TLC. TLC uses a thin layer of silica gel or alumina as the stationary phase, which is bonded to a glass slide. Just like in paper chromatography, the analyte is dotted onto the slide and the mobile phase can be almost any liquid solvent we choose. If, for example, silica gel is chosen, this means the stationary phase is highly polar, and in order to clearly see the effect of the differential interactions, a non-polar mobile phase such as heptane can be used. This technique is very similar to paper chromatography, and uses the polarity of different substances to separate them out. Next up, we're looking at liquid column chromatography. Though it looks a bit different, liquid column chromatography is very similar to thin layer chromatography. The stationary phase is also usually silica gel or alumina, but this time it's packed into a plastic or glass tube forming the column. The mobile phase is flowed through the column until it is uniformly wet, and then the analyte is added along with more of the mobile phase. Unlike in thin layer chromatography, the components of the mixture can be collected at the bottom of the column as they flow out. Once they're separated from the rest of the mobile phase, they can then be analyzed quantitatively using different techniques, so that the composition of the original mixture can be quantified. This can also provide a quantitative measure of the purity of our substance. Column chromatography, as I've described it here, uses gravity to push the mobile phase out through the column, and so the particles in the column need to be relatively large, and the column needs to be relatively short in order to process the sample in a reasonable amount of time. By adding pumps to the column however, we can use smaller particle size and longer columns, and that means that there is a greater separation between the components. That is, the resolution of the system is greater. The technique with all these pumps is then called high performance liquid chromatography. This photo shows an example of a high performance liquid chromatography setup. You can see the column in the center of the image, and two large pumps to the left. On the right is a system that analyzes the components of the mixture as they exit the column. The final chromatographic technique I'll talk about is gas chromatography. In this case, the analyte is dissolved into a solvent, which is then vaporized, so that it is in its gaseous form. The mobile phase is an unreactive carrier gas, like helium or nitrogen. The stationary phase can be either a liquid or a solid, which can be packed into a column, like in high performance liquid chromatography, or coated on the inside of a capillary wall. Another feature which makes gas chromatography a bit different is the oven that surrounds the columns, the temperature of which can be very precisely controlled. The analysis begins at a low temperature to separate out the low boiling point components, and the temperature then increases during the separation to resolve the less volatile and higher boiling point components of the sample. So the basis of separation in this case is the boiling points of the compounds. Now we've looked at four different kinds of chromatography. We can summarize their properties in a table by comparing their mobile and stationary phases, as well as the method of separation that they are based on. This brings us to the end of our videos on chromatography. Hopefully you can now identify the key components needed for a chromatographic analysis, and you understand the physical basis of separation in chromatography. You should also be able to describe some different chromatography techniques and understand how they can be used to determine the composition and purity of different substances.


Welcome to the combat of Wing Chun and Sifu Data, David, and we're going to start off today's seminar with Chico. So if you've learned anything about Chico or have heard anything about it, he has lots of different benefits both internally and externally for your body. Personally, I've had chronic intestinal disease for several years, and I didn't find any cure. I had to go to the doctor to take medication for a long time. But through this training, I was able to basically heal myself. I completely healed. I have no side effects, and the doctor basically said I'd be on medication for my whole life, and I'm on medication and basically healed after many years. And it's through this training, so it's quite amazing, and I stand behind it. If you research more about it, you'll find that it also helps you lower stress, enhance brain function, learning, creativity. It boosts your chronic vascular health, your circulatory system, even bone and joint health.  So Chico, I'm going to show you the sequence that I do pretty much every day in the morning to balance my body and my mind. So it's pretty simple. You'll see that it's not much external thing happening. It's more of a combination of your mind and your body and connecting that mind-body connection. So let's go and show you how to do that right now.
