The Islamic blasphemy laws are back, not that they ever really went away, this has been going on for years. A film called The Lady of Heaven was pulled by Cineworld this week following protests by mobs of the usual characters, the same characters that meant a teacher in Batmir had to go into hiding, the same characters that were responsible for death and destruction all over the world during the so-called Danish cartoons fiasco. View I hear are still showing it, good for them, I'd probably go and see it myself just for that, but I won't. Look, I've been watching news on this and every single discussion of it has done the same thing, they've brought on Muslims to talk about it. And there's mild disagreement about whether or not Islam allows depictions of Muhammad, there is apparently a depiction of Muhammad in this film, whether this is allowed or whether this is blasphemous, that's the debate, no one. Anyway, in the mainstream press, and I've heard you've been using this, it's actually talking about the fact that blasphemy and apostasy carry the death penalty in the Islamic faith. Nobody, this just isn't allowed to be said, it's as if, it's surreal, it's like living in some alternate universe. We're talking about something without talking about it, we're skirting around the edges. Even on cheapy news you get this peace be upon him stuff. No one is telling the truth about this and the truth is that blasphemy carries the death penalty in Islam. And there may be individual Muslims who don't agree with this or like it, but those Muslims are not calling the shots, they are not the ones with authority. We are under a de facto blasphemy law, an Islamic blasphemy law, on this contrary we have been going back to the Rushdie affair. It's the reason nothing is ever done about crime, rape gangs for example, nothing is done about them because violence from Muslims will be the response. The threat of violence, it comes from the fact that the Islamic faith imposes the death penalty for blasphemy and apostasy. And that's why here in the UK, thanks to massive Muslim immigration, we now have this, threats of death, danger, censorship, violence, threats of violence. We have ex-Muslims who can't live freely and in safety because apostasy carries the death penalty. That's where it comes from and that's why we appease Muslims all the time, always, always, we always give in, whether it's on grooming guns or FGM or child marriage or forced marriage or any of the horrors associated with this religion. We always give in and we give in because we don't really know what we're dealing with here as a society and we're frightened of it because we are a civilised society of where. So we don't really know what to do when thugs threaten us with violence, when there's this constant background noise of do what we say or else. We don't quite know what to do with it. So to keep the peace, the Islamic version of peace, we give in every time. I said that most, there are some Muslims, many Muslims probably, who don't agree with the blasphemy element, but the death from blasphemy element, but this still won't be discussed. There's no admission from such Muslims that actually the problem comes from the religion itself, none.  So the Muslims who say that death from blasphemy is wrong either are lying, incomplete denial, or don't know their religion as well as they think they do. Anyone, by the way, can study Islam and understand this. That's what I've done, what many other people have done. But until we start telling the truth, we're just going around in circles and we're going further and further and further into violence and censorship. Our free country is not free. Don't forget about this. Don't let COVID and globalism and all the other issues that we face make you forget about this. This is still here. And it's still as important as it was before COVID and all the restrictions and all the loss of freedom we suffered. And agenda 2030 and all of these things that rightly concern us. Don't forget about this. It's still there. It's still important. And it's becoming more and more important. And I'll tell you why. All those people, thousands and thousands and thousands coming in here illegally on the Kent coast and elsewhere, Muslims, and they are being distributed around the country. So nowhere will be left untouched by this. That's what's going to happen. And even little towns like Linton on Ooze in Yorkshire are about to find out that nowhere will be left untouched by this. This matters. The truth of it matters. And if those Muslims who object to this violence in the name of their religion, if they are sincere, they need to start admitting where the problem comes from. It comes from the religion itself. Now, it's time. It really is time someone started talking about this in the mainstream media. It is time, but they won't. And that is a huge part of the problem. And they won't talk about it because they're afraid to talk about it. And in being afraid, admitting that what I say and what others say is true. And they can't allow us to be right. Keep telling the truth about this. Understand its importance and understand that unless we confront the truth and unless we close the borders to this, this is our future. Violence, segregation, censorship. It's our present, but it's certainly going to be worse in the future. And if there's anyone, anyone at all in the press with an ounce of courage, speak to someone who knows the truth about this. The British public deserve that courage. My fear, though, is that they're not going to get it.  Courage is what we have. And we will continue. And I will continue to tell the truth. We need the truth. No more Islamic censorship. Yet to have some courage. View does seem to have a bit of courage. So it's a little way we can fight back. We can support view. We can even go and say it. Anything we can do to fight back is always worthy. On a separate note, this coming Monday, I will be in Devon campaigning with Frankie Ruffalo, who is a great candidate standing in parliamentary by-election down there. If you can make it to Devon this Monday to help us out, please, please do. Give Sharon a shout on inquiriesappforbritain.uk if you can help. Thanks a lot. Maybe I'll see you on Monday.


Seeing as Jimmy Buffett was best known for turning his Margaritaville anthem into a billion dollar franchise Is it any surprise he called the laid back Palm Beach Florida home? Seeing as his hit song is about a beach bum lifestyle, Jimmy really embodied that in his everyday life too Among the properties he owned before his recent passing at age 76 He and his wife lived in a stunning island contemporary home Which boasted about 5,000 square feet of space, soaring ceilings and full walls of glass sliders throughout Located in Palm Beach, the 7 million dollar residence Offered views of the lush gardens and sparkling dark blue pool from nearly every room Giving the place a resort-like feel No wonder


So we have a question here on productivity and self-sabotage. Somebody is struggling to understand why their behavior is inconsistent. So this is from Francis and it says, The more I try to change my life for the better, it seems the more frustrated I get. I have so much good information about productivity, diet, relationships, these are the issues he's working on and I watch videos and have read several books on self-improvement but the old patterns persist. I'm no more productive now than I was. Now I just feel baffled by my own behavior and inability to move forward. Is there anything I can do or something I'm missing? So Francis I'm going to address this question and hopefully it'll help other people here too. And the reason I really wanted to look at this question was there's a part in it I really love what you said there and it says okay you're struggling to enact change, to be more productive, to maybe have a better diet, things like this and you notice now I'm just baffled by my own behavior. So this is a thing that sometimes can be missing in self-improvement or self-help. I'm baffled by my own behavior. So that's really great insight you have there because it's pointing you actually in the right direction. When you start to realize I am baffled by my own behavior, my own consistencies and what I'm seeing externally in my own behavior. Now that's important because let's look at a typical contradiction. Consciously I'm holding a goal and intention that I want to be more productive and yet in my manifested behavior I'm noticing contradictions with this. I am not acting that out in my behavior it's not manifesting itself and to us it can seem baffling when consciously this is what we want to do but our behavior is showing us that actually what is going on here. Now if we can realize okay the fact that we can feel baffled or confused by our own behavior is shown us that we don't understand it. Let's take productivity. Consciously I want to be productive, I want to be productive. I'm not acting that out in my behavior. That is showing us that there is a part of us that does not want to be productive, has no interest in being productive. Now the reason we're baffled by it quite often is we don't really understand why and we can put these like simplistic labels on why we're not doing the thing we consciously say we want to do. So this part of us that doesn't want to be productive we look at it and we say and this is a lot of this isn't self-help too it's like well that's a lazy part that's a problematic part that's the part I need to get rid of that's the part that needs to change. So see there's a real problem with that because that's basically saying I don't want to listen to you anymore go away and therefore we feel baffled by it and we're really baffled by these parts of ourselves because we don't listen to it anymore. We have come to see it as just problematic. Now the way forward with this is okay unbaffle ourselves what is this part of me that doesn't want to be productive doesn't want to stick to the diet whatever it might be doesn't want to change in the relationship what is this part of me really all about and the the assumption that we make about it is well it's just wrong it's immature it's childish it's all these different things now a lot of that goes back to childhood when maybe we were shamed for for certain things but if we really start to inquire into what this part of me wants and not to just see it as as broken or a problem and get really curious about what it wants we'll often find that what it wants is quite a valid emotional need so it's not problematic it's not broken at all in my experience what I found with the productivity stuff is that yes there is this part of me that really really wants to be productive it wants to get things done it wants to accomplish things nothing wrong with that either but there's this other part of us that is resistant to that it is undermining those efforts and we see that as laziness we see it as problematic so let's unbaffle that what does it want typically what I found that it wants is fun now it can also be about low self-esteem and things like that but we start off with the assumption that well maybe this thing wants fun it looks at this part of me that is hyper productive focused on productivity and success and it says um I don't really like that I'm not interested in that and if we continue to not proactively meet the needs of this part of us that is in resistance to moving forward with that plan it will find ways on consciousness to undermine our efforts with productivity okay so find out what that part of you that is resisting this wants another good example is in in sleep for instance I give you an example so let's say consciously you're telling yourself and it's this productive part is this success-driven ambitious part is I'm going to go to sleep tonight super early and get up and have a really productive day tomorrow nothing wrong with that however you notice it's it's now 12 o'clock at night and you don't really want to go to sleep anymore and now it's one o'clock and you're still thinking well you know maybe one more episode of this show I'm watching or still play this video game or whatever it might be and you know before you notice 3 a.m and you're still having this internal fight with yourself about why am I doing this okay there's a part of us there that doesn't want to go to sleep early and these two parts of us the productive part and the part that's resistant to that are kind of in conflict now we identify with this productive part we like that part we see it is helpful and you know the truth is if you can consciously keep that in your awareness all evening as you're preparing for bed I'm going to go to bed early tonight I'm going to go to bed early tonight in all likelihood you will succeed with that however it's very difficult to hold a goal like that in conscious awareness all the time and what will happen is okay for a moment you sit down and think okay I'm going to go to bed early tonight and I'm going to watch this show first I'm going to watch half an hour of this thing and as you do it your attention from that conscious goal is kind of fading away and now what happens is this other part that isn't interested in this goal at all comes in it's not wrong it's not bad it just has different needs different desires or preferences and it comes in and it starts to influence you right now and also the thing to note about that it is very influential because it uses emotion because it's it's quite repressed quite often and it'll start to influence your decision-making and now it seems just more justifiable this day I'm watching the tv show or whatever it might be and before you know it's 3 a.m and we continue to go on like this in this inner conflict with ourselves because of this part of us that we just don't understand and we see it as like I'll often say to people okay well well why why are you struggling with productivity I don't know I don't understand it I don't understand this resistance I have to it it's unbaffling or demystifying what this part of us wants because the truth is we can try to bulldoze it away we can try to repress it and deny it it's not going anywhere because it's valid it's very valid it's just not interested in productivity or success or something does that make it bad no it just means that it probably wants fun or it wants relaxation it wants spontaneity and here's the thing it's probably not getting it so it will start to come in and get its needs met unconsciously um without permission okay so it's not going away so the solution to this is to find out oh yes this productivity need is very healthy it's a good thing for me there's also this part of me here that has no interest in it at all what do both of them want and now start now you'll notice about these two parts we identify with this part that's productive and the part that's productive and this part that isn't doesn't want to be productive they don't like each other so we need to start start ending the conflict between them and really what you need to do to do that is to validate both parts of yourself okay so this this part that you're baffled about understand it more start to validate it more stop seeing it as an enemy bring it on board proactively and start to say well what does it want and that involves things like you know you look at your day ahead for the next day and you're thinking okay well productivity is going to be important but what does this other part want that would make a cooperate with me going to sleep tonight early i'm getting up and being productive you see we tend to see that part as a liability but it sees the product productive guy or part of you as being a liability that's a really interesting thing to think about like from its perspective why would it let you go to sleep early it sees that as dangerous based on its needs and perspectives because it's saying well if this guy goes to sleep early tonight he's going to get up early tomorrow he's going to be full of energy and he's going to jump straight into productivity and i won't have any time to get my needs met at least if he's tired tomorrow i'll have a chance at him stopping and chilling out okay so it's very valid it's very rational really so start to validate both of them as important and in planning your day look at okay productivity is going to be part of this but i have to proactively consciously include whatever this need is and it's typically going to be about fun spontaneity relaxation okay so this is kind of a me giving you a kind of the dynamics of why self-care is important and all this word self-care is kind of a boring word and we've all heard it so many times the thing is it's not really optional because the part of us that feels like it's not getting what it needs starts to get resentful and then it'll start to get sort of a little bit underhanded in terms of how it starts to influence you unconsciously and influence your decision-making so my my my answer here at francis is and anyone else who's watching is demystify what the part of you that's resistant wants and we have a lot of resistance to going in and having a conversation about that because often what i've found is that emotional need that is really driving that at some point in our past we were shamed for having that need and therefore we kind of convinced ourselves to stop wanting it or stop needing it and there's a lot of fear that we experienced around having that need in the past and a lot of shame thing is you can't get rid of your emotional needs this is this is a fundamental fact that we need to come to terms with i can't shut off my emotional needs i can repress them for a long time but they will always find a way to come back so francis i hope that's useful information demystify that part of you that you are baffled by and you will find that once those two parts start to feel validated and included they now start to cooperate with each other where in the past they were in in real conflict with each other struggling for your time and attention and once that happens your productivity will just naturally just improve because there's no resistance to it anymore see the thing is and this is again what self-improvement sometimes misses the model of pushing yourself forward trying to develop habits to be more productive it's kind of like driving with the handbrake on in your car right why should it be so hard it's it's when life isn't cruel you know it shouldn't be that hard it should be easy and once we resolve any inner conflicts we have with ourselves typically around what our emotional needs are going to be there can be self-esteem stuff to look at also but once we do that we move forward with a lot of grace and ease in our life so i hope that was a useful question and as always thanks for joining me and i'll see you again soon bye from now


to the channel, if you haven't yet, make sure you subscribe to stay up to date with all the latest content that we put out. At this point, we've pretty much got content going out every 48 hours. So don't stay stuck with your business. And if you want to get in contact with me personally, there's a couple of ways you can do that. The first one is you can book a free 15 to 20 minute call. We jump on Zoom, it's pretty much a discovery call. I discover your idea, what you're currently doing, your business. I can ask you some really good questions and I can share with you some actionable steps to take this week to grow and scale what you're doing. Now, if you don't want to do that and you just want to send me a simple question, you can do that, send it to makemoneycoachingsports.gmail.com. But don't stay stuck with your business, get in contact with me, I'm here to help. And one of my jobs every single day is to connect with coaches all around the world who have sports training businesses, to help them to grow, to scale, get to the next level. Right, so they can make their business better and they can help more, more athletes. So today I want to talk about the second sale. So for those that don't understand too much about what the second sale is, right? The second sale is pretty much when you are about to close a client onto your main thing which might be, for example, a three month training package. Right, that you've been through the process. So you've had the sales, the initial intro call with them. You've invited them to an evaluation session which is essentially an assessment session. While you've gathered all the information, they're a good fit for you. Now you've followed up with them and now you're looking to close them onto your three month training package. So the second sale is essentially now once we have them on that package and once we get them interested and they wanna move forward with you, how can then we get them to purchase something else from us so that we can make that initial sale, right, the profit from that sale bigger, okay? So I'm gonna share with you three ideas and these are three things that I've done in my training business and these are three things that I help coaches with their businesses as well, okay? So the first one is essentially merchandise, okay? So merchandise could be training gear. It could be personalized or customized water bottles that players can take to their training sessions to have. It could be training diaries, right, that they purchase from you to write down every day what they're doing, okay? Or it could be equipment, right? So it could be personalized equipment that you sell. Some coaches that I work with, they create these training, should we say these training packages which is essentially has different types of equipment and items that they offer clients that clients then pay a little bit more once they join their program, okay? So the way this would work is you've got Mrs. Jones on the final call where you're about to close up onto the three month training package. And what you can say is that, okay, Mrs. Jones, we're about to get you registered, signed up for our program. What I would like to offer you as well is we have this, this, and this available, which is a requirement for players who join our academy or training program to purchase before they start their first training session with us, okay? So for example, in my academy and in my training program, what I do is when I look to close a client onto my program, it's a requirement that they purchase their training uniform before they get to the first training session with us. Okay, so on that call, I'm gonna be closing them on the three, six, nine, 12 month commitment package, plus they've also going to upgrade and to purchasing the training uniform. So everything, instead of selling them a $100 three month training package, for example, that you're adding the difference, which is the merchandise, which is the training uniform on top of that. So instead of paying 100s, they're now gonna be paying 150, which gets them ready and set to join your program. Okay, so essentially the second sale, it's a way of adding extra revenue to that final sale that you're making with that client, right? So how can we close that client and how can we make them pay more so that the total amount that we're bringing in is more than the initial amount you've sold them, okay? And essentially, when you sell parents on merchandise, that you can make it a requirement that all new players must purchase this merchandise, so they could be training gear, water bowls, equipment, that you must purchase this before you become a member of our academy, right? This could also be included in your terms and conditions, right, the player contracts that you're getting your clients to sign within it. It can state that it is a requirement to purchase training uniform before the initial training session, okay? So that's one way you can get that second sale and essentially increase the amount of money you make on that first sale, okay? So instead of making $100, just selling them training, you can then upgrade them to purchase in the training uniform which at some point they will need or you can sell equipment to them which could be cones, water bowls, it could be shingards, right? It could be anything that you feel that the player will need for your training sessions. Okay, now the second one is a camp or clinic, okay? So you've got Mrs. Jones on the line, you're about to close her into your three month training package and what you can do is you can say to Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, before we close your account and we finalize your purchase, would you be interested in attending our upcoming camp or clinic in whichever month it is, okay? And what you can say is that as part of being a new member is that all new members who purchase our upcoming camp or clinic, they get a 50 or 20% discount of the total amount, okay? So if the camp is $100 and your new client is about to sign up and register with you, you can upgrade them so that they get that camp or upcoming clinic 50% off, okay? And essentially they're getting more training with you which is a good thing. And you've also not just sold them a training package, now you've sold them into your camp or clinic, okay? So the initial sale was the training but now you've made them make the second sale which is the camp or clinic, okay? Now the third idea is extra training, okay? So if Mrs. Jones is looking to do a three-month commitment with you, she's ready to purchase, she's ready to finalize and make the payment, what you can do is you can offer her an upgrade to her current package. So instead of three months, she could pay six months at a discounted rate so that her son or daughter stays with you for longer and essentially it works out cheaper doing a longer-term commitment. Now some parents may go for that because if they see a lot of value and they like you, they trust you, they will be thinking in their heads that do you know what this makes sense to do? If we want our child, our daughter, our son to get great results with Coach Leo, then I want them to be training with him for longer, okay? So instead of three months, we're gonna commit to six months but what you can do, you can set it up where, if you're selling a six-month package, what they do is they get the six month for free and they're only paying for five months. So that's one idea. You can also do the same if you're selling a nine-month package and you can sell them on an extra eight months worth of training and the last month is free or the last two months are free and they're only paying for the remainder. Okay, so these are free ideas that you can make an extra little bit of income on that initial final sale that you're making with the parent.  You can then offer them other alternatives and other extras that they can purchase now at a discounted rate so that they're paying more with you and committing longer into your program, okay? Now, companies, big corporations, big companies do this all the time, okay? If you go, for example, to a McDonald's, right? And you've gone into a McDonald's or you've gone through the drive-through, right? And all you want is a quarter pound of burger, right? Essentially, when you're ready to make that payment, the lady or the man behind the counter is gonna say to you, would you like to add a milkshake? Would you like to add fries? Would you like to add a drink to your final purchase?  Okay, I might get thirsty after eating that burger. I'm gonna go for a milkshake. I'm gonna go for a soda, okay? So that is the second sale and companies do this all the time. The ones that are really good at doing it is supermarkets, right? Supermarket grocery stores, essentially when you're going into one of these stores, most people go in there, right?  Instead of going in there for one item, I've come out with four items, okay? And that is how these companies make so much money and that's how they essentially create the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth sale with their customers. And you can do the same in your training business, okay? So if you need more help with this and you need more help setting this up and getting contact with me, right? Like I said, I've done it in my business and I'm helping coaches who are currently have a business and they're looking to grow and scale to the next level, okay? Thank you for watching and I'll see you on the next video.


Howdy guys IndiePixel here and in this particular video what I wanted to do was talk about our next shape That we are going to create and that's the parabola now the parabola by itself isn't actually you know such a complex Set of math or anything like that But what I'm trying to do throughout all these shapes and stuff like that show you you know the math behind things like the nodes like in substance designer or The shapes and stuff like that that you find in a lot of image Editing applications and what we can do is we can apply that same math to 3d shapes as well inside of Houdini and you'll find that once you start to utilize These particular shapes and you start to blend noises in with them You're actually starting to produce kind of the basic functionality of what substance designer does right and we're doing that Here inside of Houdini, so it's really important to you know learn all these kind of staple math Functions and stuff like that so without further ado Let's go and drop down a geometry container over here, and I'm just going to call this the parabola Video all right, and we're going to jump inside and delete that I'm just going to hide all the other objects so we can only see what's inside of this geometry node itself, okay, and To get started what I'm going to do is drop down a circle and we're going to switch that circle over to a polygon Okay, we're going to make it sit on the zx plane, so it's nice and flat, but you'll notice that if you have your Backface calling turned on by default the circles actually Reversed and you can turn this or toggle this on and off by going to the optimized tab, so you hit D on the keyboard That's how I brought up this window here hit D on the keyboard, and you can say remove back faces or not All right. I usually like to keep it on Just so I know when my geometry is reversed and now you if you've watched any of the videos I go back and forth with that, you know But it's good practice to leave it on just so you know if your geometry is reversed so with this in place I'm just going to drop down a reverse node like so and What we're going to do now is drop down a poly extrude because I need divisions inside of this circle Alright, and I need them to radiate out from the center All right, and so to do this what I'm going to do is I'm going to copy the radius x here this parameter just by right-clicking on it and pasting it right there and Then what I want to do is I also want to paste it into the inset value and what that does is it brings it all the way into the center Cool So now we can easily add divisions in a circular fashion All right, so this is perfect Okay, so The last thing I want to do is just drop down a fuse node And the reason being is if we turn on our point numbers at this point You can see that we have a bunch of numbers all sitting in the center there And that's just because when we inside it all the points From each of these edges here are meeting up at the center. So we just want to fuse that So that way we don't have all those extra points now. We have just a single point point 12 Okay, let's add a couple more divisions to to the circle And let's turn off our point numbers Cool. So what we can do now is we can drop down that attribute wrangle node so I'm just gonna hit tab on the keyboard here and let's do an attribute wrangle again, you could do a point wrangle as well and I am going to then jump inside of this particular node and hit alt e on the keyboard And this is going to bring up the script editor for that particular wrangle node And the first thing I want to do is I want to produce a gradient from the center All the way out to the edge. So I want it to be completely black At the edge and I want it to be completely white the center now This is relatively easy to do the first thing that we need to do is find the position of the center of this particular object So I'm going to call this local variables center And what we're going to do is utilize that distance method And we're going to compare the current point position that we're running over because remember we're running over all the points So for every single point here, I'm going to test its distance from the center All right, so we'll say api and And I actually got a little bit ahead of myself. I actually wanted to do the get bb box. I just wanted to finish the video Anyways, we want to get the center Okay, and then what we're going to do is we're going to create a float called gradient this local variable called gradient And then we're going to use the the distance Function there, okay, and we're going to compare The current position with center and that's a vector All right, so we can compare it and what this distance function is going to do is it's going to return a float distance Basically, okay, and that will basically give us a gradient that we can utilize All right, so if we were to say at CD equals zero Like so now we get black and then if we did at CD equals gradient You'll see that we now have a gradient that goes from white to black Okay, and we can also flip it just just by doing a one minus like so so I have a nice fall off and That by itself you might think that that is a parabola It looks very similar to the parabola shape that you see inside of substance design it But if we were to add that to the position that why so let's say at p Dot y plus equals our one minus gradient here You get a cone and that is not exactly what I want, but Ta-da, we have a cone just like so all right So if you needed a cone shape that is literally how you do it super easy All right, but what we want to do is we want to create this nice art shape more of a parabola shape Okay, so how do we do that? So let's first do a little bit of cleanup here I'm going to actually pump the gradient Actually, what I'm going to do is just build in that one minus because I want that fall off basically like so So I can get rid of the one minus here on the gradient or on the color value. So now we have a inverted Cone all right, so we should probably do a minus equals and Actually, we might not need that minus equals there We need the plus Equals there we go All right, so now that we have that value all we really need to do is Take this gradient to a power. So let's do a pow And we'll just take it to The power of two and hit apply you'll notice that now we're getting this kind of cool shape It's it's a parabola, but we are getting half the parabola on one side and half the parabola on the other side All right, what we really want to do is subtract this right here All right, and we still get that same overall shape and That is because we are doing this one minus here so we don't necessarily need to do that and right off the bat you can see now We get not that inverted parabola. We get the proper parabola now, but it's now below the plane All right, and what we really want to do is we want to adjust the height of this Okay, so what I'm going to do is create another float value and just call this height and we're going to hook it up to a float channel called height Like so all right, and we'll just it apply to that and What we can do now is produce that parameter over here and just give it a value Just so it's not zero right off the bat and all we need to do is just multiply that by the power That we're doing All right, so hit apply and that now is affecting the overall height Perfect, and then what we want to do is we want to get it back above the plane based off of that height All right, so let's subtract the height from it in this case And that should be correct and that gets it back on to the plane All right, so let it apply and accept and now we have a parabola shape that we can actually adjust and We need to simply just invert our Color gradient for visualization purposes. All right, and that my friends is how we do a parabola All right, there's lots of stuff you can do from this point on in terms of creating more curved shapes and stuff like that I always highly recommend Wikipedia or some of the math references at Khan Academy They always had to do a great job of explaining you know math functions and stuff like that so These videos that I'm making around these shapes are more about how we create the shapes and noises that we see in things like substance designer because one of my goals is to utilize all those particular functions Inside of Houdini and specifically for the Houdini engine so I can have you know those that kind of power inside of Unity and inside of unreal so These are the kind of those basic core components that that everyone should know when you start working with Procedural modeling and the Houdini engine itself. All right, so That is what I had for you guys today. Thanks so much. I'll see you and talk to you in a bit. Bye


Here everybody, Dr. O here. So we've so far talked about atoms and molecules coming together to form organelles and cells and the cell is the basic unit of life. But for the human body to work correctly, our cells have to work together and that's where tissues are going to come into play. So a tissue is when you take a group of specialized cells that have a specific function. The study of these tissues is going to be called histology. So later we'll see how when you put tissues together you form organs and organ systems and the whole human organism. So in this video we're going to talk about the four basic types of tissues and you'll see them kind of in order of importance. This chapter we have epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue and neuro tissue. So muscle tissue and neuro tissue we're barely going to talk about in this chapter because they have their own chapters later. And then I'm going to come back and cover connected tissue at the end because it's such a catch all basically how I think of it is if it's not one of the other three then it falls into the category of being of connected tissue. Let's start by talking about epithelial tissue. So the words I think of here are linings and coverings and surfaces. So any surface of the body like your skin is going to be lined with epithelial tissue.  So they're going to be lined with epithelial tissue. But then we have internal services as well. The lining of your blood vessels, the lining of the inside of your heart, the pericardial cavity your heart is in, the pleural cavity your lungs are in. These are all examples of surfaces, linings and coverings. So those are going to be epithelial tissue. So like I said, I'll come back to connect tissue in just a moment. So muscle tissue pretty straightforward, it's job, it's specialized for contraction. So the tissue that contracts in your body is going to be muscle tissue. You'll see the three types. We have cardiac muscle that's in your heart, smooth muscle, lines, hollow organs, and then skeletal muscles, the muscle we think of with voluntary control that moves our body. Neurotissue or nervous tissue, it's job is to send and receive electrical impulses. So you see the brain, spinal cord and nerves there, we'll cover that in great detail. So if it's not lining or covering something, it's not contracting and it's not sending and receiving electrical impulses, then it falls into our fourth category, this catch all called connective tissue. So we'll cover what it means to be connective tissue later. I mean all sorts of things, you see fat, bone, tendon, these are all examples of connective tissue. We have fluid connected tissues like blood and lymph.  So I'll make sense of all that later. So those are going to be the four basic tissue types of the body. Welcome to Astrology. I hope this helps. Have a wonderful day, be blessed.


Hi everybody, Daniel Reyes from dothedaniel.com here. I partnered with Products Made Simple to create beautiful cocktail recipes for you. Being that it's winter here in Canada, it's summer in Chile, so why not warm up with a couple of inspired cocktails? Playing off the beautiful nectarines from Chile that are now in season, I wanted to make a twist on a classic mimosa. So what are we gonna do first? We're gonna use about half an ounce of brandy for more fulfilling adventures. Brandy is a beautiful addition to any cocktail. Very traditional, it's really rich flavors and it's gonna give a really golden color to this drink. So there's about half an ounce. You wanna serve this in a champagne flute because I mean, if we're playing on a mimosa, might as well use the glass as well.  And as you'll notice, that color just starts to get golden and beautiful. I like sparkling rosé. Now you can use white, you can use whatever you have in the house, but sparkling is key because it is a twist on a mimosa. Making sure that you tilt the glass ever so slightly, this will fizz up on you and you'll just top until the fizz reaches the top of the glass. Cheers to that. Want to try my nectar of the gods? Gather these ingredients together to get started. I hope you love these recipes, but always remember to enjoy responsibly.


Okay, I think it's about time to get started. Welcome everyone. I'm Cliff Lynch, the director of CNI, and I'm very pleased to be able to welcome you to the first project briefing session of the third week of our 2020 virtual conference. This presentation is on ontology for scholarship, the revising of the vivo ontology. We have two speakers with us today. They will be presenting starting in just a moment and Violetta will lead off. We will take questions at the end. Diane Goldenberg Hart from CNI will be moderating the questions and we would invite you to use the Q&A tool at the bottom of your screen to pose questions at any point when they occur to you and we'll come and take all of those questions up at the end. So with that, let me just say welcome one more time and turn it over to Violetta. Thank you, Cliff. Thank you CNI for having us talk to you today about the vivo project and the vivo ontology. Both Mike and myself are presenting on behalf of the vivo ontology interest group. We hope you're all safe and staying home. So with that, I would like to start off by saying that the vivo project provides an open source approach to collecting, studying and showcasing the scholarly work of an institution and sharing data about the work using a common ontology. The vivo ontology has experience demands to represent new forms of scholarship while adapting best practices in ontological design and ontological development. Domain representation have emerged and much good work can now be incorporated in a revised and modularized ontology which is the goal of the vivo ontology tool. A first domain has been isolated and a work product is available and that is the language ontology which is based on the ISO 639-3 which can be used to represent the language capabilities of people and the languages of their works. This is very important because we have learned that that's with the vivo being international. There is many requests for being able to represent the language of the scholarship and the language capabilities of the scholars. So in this presentation, we will describe the pressures on the ontology to modernize the domains of representation that can now be separated, new forms of scholarship to be represented, best practices for ontological development being adopted by the project and the current state of the work to revise the ontology. Next slide please. Some trouble, just a sec. Not advancing. It's not advancing. This work just a little bit. So why do we want to revise the vivo ontology? There are many reasons for this and some of them are improving the representation of scholarship, the breadth, the depth and the consistency. We would also like to address technical depth, licensing issues, methodology, use of other ontologies. What exactly is happening here? This new ontology related ontology modules is based on community standards. There are multiple tools, documents and training available to work with the new ontologies. And how? Of course, because this is an open project, open source project, this is an open multi-year effort to develop, test and implement the new ontologies in the vivo software, upgrade the existing data document and train. The next slide. Vivo development has a goal of decoupling various components of the vivo environment. The current software is heavily dependent on ontology. Future interface software will operate from a decouple index easily populated from any ontology. The Vivo ontology interest group has been meeting for more than a year to identify issues related to the ontology. Implementing incremental changes to the ontology is difficult in the current vivo environment. It was last attempted in 2013 with significant difficulties. A full-scale version upgrade to the ontology can be planned years in advance to include all the changes, change management required. Ontological practice has matured significantly in the past 12 years since the Vivo ontology was created. Best practices can be implemented to significantly improve the ontology and its related models. So in the slide four, the BFO, the basic formal ontology is for data sharing. The BFO came out of the biomedicine because they started first doing this kind of work. It's heavily using the open biomedical ontologies. The BFO is an upper level. It can be used in any domain. I just want to mention that this doesn't restrain it only to biomedical sciences. Any ontology can be expanded. If you use your vocabulary and I use my vocabulary, for example, we need to translate to be able to share. The oboe standards are a good thing. In the large community of oboe ontology maintainers, they have adopted best practices for ontology development and maintenance. We actually are planning on following those standards. Because to be fair, Vivo did not do a perfect job with subsumption hierarchies. We have a lot of stuff that are kind of misclassified. We would like to revise this ontology and put everything in place the way it should be so we will be able to easily share the data with anybody else. Vivo does not fully comply to global foundry because of the number, class names, the name, and the way we version the ontology. For example, oboe requires class labels to be unique and we don't do that currently. We are working on all of this and the work will be shared with all of you when we are ready. In the next slide, slide five, of course, much good work has been done across many projects. For example, the BIBO, the EIRO, the research ontology. Vivo needs a consistent, well-maintained set of ontology to represent scholarship. Ontology is based on standards, a law for sharing of data regarding scholarship. Vivo intends to capitalize on this good work to build consistent, well-maintained ontologies to represent scholarship. We found out, unfortunately, that the CC BI licenses are not recommended for ontologies. We would like to, and we would prefer to use the CC0 licenses. Like Mike says, attribution is polite but not required in the CC0, but that's what we would like to be able to do, to be able to build on other ontologies. So the Vivo ontology too will contain assertions regarding the relationship between terms in the Vivo ontology and those in other ontologies. And now I will hand it over to Mike. Okay, so when you're building an ontology to represent scholarship, you want to reuse as much work as you can. And in version one of the Vivo ontology, we used quite a number of different ontologies, but that created some ontological inconsistency because the ontologies were not using the same upper level ontology. It also created some potential licensing difficulties as Violetta described. And then over the years, we found out that some of these ontologies were not actively maintained. And so as we came to own our collection of ontological work, we came to the kind of conclusions that we just heard about with regard to selecting ontologies and then assembling them into something that might be useful for representing scholarship. Our current thinking is that we'll continue to use the ontologies that you see there to meet the criteria of being well maintained, having Vivo as an upper level ontology or being readily mapped to the Vivo upper ontology and open licensed in an appropriate way. We expect to be referencing a number of other ontologies, not directly using their terms. And so when, and we may reference terms that are in wiki data, for example, which isn't actually an ontology, but as a set of RDF terms that are useful for representing things. And so our ontology is likely to reference those things so that people using the Vivo ontology can find additional material about the terms that we're defining and using. And then we intend to create modules that are complete ontological entities, which may not reference Vivo at all, but can be used by Vivo to represent scholarship. We've always supported the concept of a local module, which allows extension of the entities. But as we move forward, we create ontological artifacts that can be assembled in a scalable way. And Violetta described, I just got one of those little notes that my connection is unstable, so I'll stop talking whenever I see one of those things. Violetta described the language ontology, which we will have a draft available to the public shortly. The language ontology as Violetta described is a complete standalone ontology. It's based on ISO 639.3 and the common European framework for capabilities of languages and can be used to represent the capabilities of people, organizations, translation of works and represent the language of works. And you see a GitHub repository there. The Vivo domain is the domain of scholarship. And this scholarly domain can be quite broad, as we all know. Scholars are involved in a wide range of different activities. Here we show examples of, in the class hierarchy, from the SRR point of view. For those new, this example, a cat is a mammal. Right. So these arrows that we're seeing here are all IS type relationships. And so in the lower left, we see an ORCID ID. And an ORCID ID is a centrally registered identifier, and then a centrally registered identifier is an information content entity. In this figure, this is our proposed hierarchy. The yellow items are from the BFO, upper-level ontology. The white items are from an existing information artifact ontology that is consistent with BFO. And then the blue items are items that are introduced by Vivo to create a comprehensive approach to representing scholarship. As we move forward with, you know, we've been in the Vivo business for, the ontology has been around for about 13 years. But there are areas in the representation that we currently have that need to be extended and improved. So, for example, attribution was not, has been an emerging topic over the last decade, trying to create and improve our ability to attribute the work of people who participated in scholarly activity beyond that, beyond simple authorship. So we might want to know who created the figures or who did the data analysis or who wrangled the data or other elements of the construction of a scholarly work. And that would be true whether it's a, whether across all domains of scholarship, whether it's scientific domain or humanities domain, we'd want to be able to get sort of inside the work and understand the nature of the participation of the people involved. And all of the other areas that we see up there have similar depth issues where we can go deeper into representing the nature of the scholarship. We've done a fair amount of work to date, trying to lay groundwork for the work to come in creating ontological artifacts. And so we see thoughts about different parts of the scholarly domain and how we may choose to represent them in the work that goes forward. All of these are links. You'll have access to the presentation. And then the presentation, these are actual links to Google Docs that are publicly available. So you'll be able to dive down on any of the areas if you're interested. And then for additional information about the work that we're doing, you can check in with our ontology interest group. And we meet biweekly and discuss all manners of representing scholarship and all manners of owning and operating an ontology in a public way. And then there's a link there to the actual text of the current vivo ontology, that version one. And as we move out with additional artifacts, they'll be about the facts for those as well. So with that, I'd like to thank you for listening. And perhaps we have time for some questions. Thank you very much, Mike and Violetta. It was really interesting. I have to say it's been fascinating to watch the development of the vivo project over the last decade. And really fascinating to hear these developments in the ontology. So we appreciate you coming to CNI to share that with us. At this point, I'd like to invite anyone who has questions to please type them in the Q&A box, which you should see at the bottom of your Zoom screen. You're also welcome to share them via chat if you prefer. While we are waiting for folks to think about the presentation and some questions that they might have, I just want to take an opportunity to remind you that this webinar is part of CNI's ongoing Spring virtual membership meeting, which will continue through the end of May with lots of offerings yet to come. And I'm pasting into the chat box there, the direct link to the complete schedule of upcoming project briefings. And this afternoon, we have two more project briefings, including the first presentation from our call for proposals involving topics relating directly to the COVID-19 crisis. That one will be starting at 2.30 this afternoon, Eastern time. And then followed by a project briefing on SimplyE about an academic e-book experience. So I hope you will join us for those project briefings and many more throughout the next several weeks. And with that, it looks like we do have a question for our presenters. And our question is, could you please explain a bit more about what would be included in the quote teaching extension that you mentioned as a possible new direction? Sure. So in the original Vivo conception and modeling, teaching was handled in a very simple way. We basically wanted to be able to answer the question, who taught what? And so we could connect a person with an instance of a teaching thing. But we weren't clear about what that teaching thing was. And we weren't clear about the difference between the classroom experience as a, from an logical point of view, as an occurrence, something that occurred in time, akin to an event, a performance, a gathering, that kind of thinking of a classroom experience from the concept or idea or term of a course, the way the registrar might conceive of a course as being an entry in a catalog of courses. And so that's an information content entity, clearly, and appears in a collection of courses and then takes part in things like requirements for degrees. So you must take this course in order to complete that degree. That concept of a course is very different than the course concept of a gathering, like this one that we're having today. And so we discussed that contention or difference between the course as an information content entity and the course as a gathering. It turned out that the University of Florida had clear language about this and had always considered these things to be completely and totally separate. Course was reserved for the concept of the information content entity, the thing that would appear in a degree requirement. That's called, that is a course. The thing that you teach is not called a course, it's called a course section. And so economics 101 might have many course sections, one taught by me and one taught by somebody else and one taught by somebody else. And the catalog says economics 101 and then the student finds a course section that they want to participate in and take. And so that language about teaching and taking courses, that's about course sections. And that was very clear where I came from, but was not very clear to others. And so when we saw the vivo ontology originally we said course, what's that?  And we said, you know, like, no, we don't know what that is. So we started this conversation about separating those two ideas almost 10 years ago. And the University of Florida immediately created a local extension and used course to mean the thing that participates in the degree requirement and use the thing that vivo sent us as course section. So we separated them immediately. So yeah, that's what we're planning to do is eventually separate them and then be able to say things like this course section consisted of course meetings. And the course meeting on September 13 was hosted by so and so. So we could get all the way down to the detail of we had a special guest star appear in our course at that moment. And when you're representing the scholarship of people who are doing guest lectures or doing guest lectures and courses, you need that kind of representation. And we didn't have so interesting. That's great. Thank you. Thanks for that explanation. And thank you for that question, Nancy. And we do have a little more time if there are other questions. Similarly, if you would like to make a comment or engage directly with micro violetta, this zoom environment does permit me to move you into speaking mode. So if you want to raise your hand, I can recognize you and allow you to address and engage directly with our speakers. I don't see any more questions coming in via the Q&A. Except for now I do see another question coming in through the Q&A. So let me read you that question. Earlier you mentioned ontology to describe institutions. And I'm wondering if you're leveraging a standard for institutions. It's an excellent question. Oh, yes, we are. Yes, we're right. Yes. So this is difficult. So there's two parts here. One is the ontological work to represent an organization and what we want to say about an organization. And then there's the data about organizations that we might use to create instances of organizations in an ontology. On both sides, we're interested in standards. And on the data side, there appear to be at least three. And so we have been in conversations with war people at CNI actually, at previous CNI meetings. And well before that, we were working with the grid people at Digital Science before there was grid. So we were talking to them about how they would create grid and how the representation might work. We mapped grid to the existing Vivo ontology and created a full RDF representation of grid for Vivo and put that in open Vivo, which is available on the web. So openvivo.org contains a complete RDF representation of the grid data. And we have the tools to update that as necessary. We'll do the same thing for the ROAR data. And so we've been in conversations about the ROAR data. I think our last ontology meeting may have been about the ROAR data. And so we're definitely interested in ROAR and establishing a standard for identifying organizations and for representing information about them ontologically. One concern we have about the ROAR data, since I'm here, is that ROAR is very focused on scholarship as are we. But it turns out that in certain elements of scholarship, they are very interested in large collections of organizations that are not considered scholarly. So an example might be the laboratory people I work with. So I'm a funded NIH investigator. I work with metabolomics people. They buy equipment. They buy equipment from companies. It's important that we are able to represent what company made the equipment that is in the laboratory. And so we have a chain from the investigator to their equipment to the vendor. And the vendor is not scholarly. But the vendor needs to be known and needs to be known in the scholarly realm. And so we have the need to represent a large collection of organizations, not just scholarly organizations. And to that end, we've also been looking at wiki data. So wiki data has hundreds of thousands of organizations and has no particular interest in scholarship. So they represent everything. So that might be useful to us. The ontological representation will be the same regardless. The basic ontological elements of organization, what kind of an organization is it? Contact information, location information, identifier information, the ontological model. But that we would expect to hold up regardless of whether we're representing grid data, raw data, or wiki data. Well, that was really interesting. And Robin says, thank you, Mike, and good to hear from you. Interesting issue on corporations and vendors. And if anyone from Roar is here, perhaps they would like to weigh in. Very interesting observation. So we very much appreciate that explanation. And we do still have a little more time. If there are any other questions for Mike and Violetta, here's another question. Similar question is earlier regarding a standard for subject domains and subdomains. What do you say about that? Well, I may have flagged by, but we're currently for subject domains. I think you mean like topics. So you want to say the person is interested in physics or this book is about aeronautical engineering. That's what we mean by... Is that what you mean, Nancy? Thanks. No, from which subject discipline does a teacher or scholar come from, she means? Oh, okay. Well, actually, that's interesting because those are vaguely related. So, of course, we always represent the person as being a member of a department. And so that's like an explicit thing that has to do with their academic home. And then Vivo provides the opportunity to represent the research areas that a faculty member is interested in or anybody is interested in. Those research areas usually come from a control vocabulary. And I think Violetta is the expert on this. So you want to talk about the... We use few vocabularies? Yes, we use few vocabularies in Vivo. And by the way, depending on the institution and the needs of that institution, what's the focus, what are the... Some liberal arts colleges may not want to use the mesh vocabulary, for example, you can upload your own vocabulary in Vivo and you can utilize that. Yes. And FAST, we've used the FAST vocabulary, but FAST vocabulary did not have the term for biostatistics, which is my academic discipline. So it had 500,000 terms, but it didn't have that one. So local extension will always be necessary, apparently. I think it's time. Is that right? I think we lost Violetta. She said she had to drop off at two for another meeting. Oh, I see. Okay. And I think we're coming up to the time for your second. Okay. I don't know how you do this. Well, we do have a little more time if there are others that have any questions. Nancy wanted to thank you. And then she comments, there's always a problem with whatever you use. That's correct. That's why we have that local trap door for all of our... Well, with that, I will go ahead and close out the formal public portion of this webinar. And thank you so much, Mike. And thank you to Violetta, although I'm sorry I wasn't able to thank her before she had to leave. But again, we really appreciate you coming to CNI to talk to us a little bit more about Vivo and we wish you luck with...


I think we define us as mainly as sculptors. What we do, we don't see it as the toy. For us it's a sculpture. I'm Marc. I'm Sven. And we are chorus. The reason why one of us started the project with us was because they wanted to have a completely new take on the collectors figure. It was fun to design a scorpion's appearance because I had a chance to give some really unique ideas to the figure and coming up with a concept for a character that was always one of my favorite ones. We spend a huge amount of time on sketching just trying to get the look right. But then the sculpting process is the actual process of creation. Our approach is more that we start with a three-dimensional object. When you think with a three-dimensional object first we really pay attention to every line, every detail, every shape. So it's really about the sculpture. I think that's the most important part. Being part of the collectors edition is great because we can bring the same experience and show our work to a much larger audience. Decisions in designing a scorpion reflect our way to translate this broken character into shapes and forms. We hear from that around that our spin on scorpion is going to find its way back in the game. The cool thing is that the collectors edition features our version of the character physically and digitally. We are allowed to bring our style and add something to the model combat world. We really hope that people are going to like it and like our approach on scorpion.


7 things that shock the narcissist to their core The narcissist wants you to believe that you cannot affect them as though no matter what you do they will show no effects or changes as though they are untouchable and they are not able to be punished or criticized in any way but the reason why they act in this way is actually because the opposite is true and they don't want you to know about it it's a front an act of opposition hostility and defiance but it is also a deceptive outward appearance and something that they must use as a means to protect themselves because they're paranoid they fear a more vulnerable side to them maybe at risk of danger or harm because there are actually unexpected things that can surprise and upset them one when you remain indifferent when you have no particular interest or sympathy towards them when you act unconcerned when you're not thinking about them when you're not chasing after them when you're not worried about what they're doing this really shocks them because everything they do is designed to elicit a reaction they view people as objects and they assume that everyone wants them so when you remain indifferent it challenges their delusion and then it makes them question their worth because their false character isn't even real it's not based on anything that is actually grounded in reality it's just something that they've created in their minds so it's dependent on other people's validation without that it ceases to exist and then it resurfaces their insecurities to where they end up hating you because they don't want to reflect on their insecurities so they will get mad and they may even try to provoke you because they're desperately seeking a response from you to validate the illusion and to suppress the insecurities because that's all that it's designed to do but when you remain indifferent it invalidates their false self too when you catch them off guard when you surprise them by doing something they don't expect it really catches them off guard because they like predictability they like it when they know in advance what is going to happen rather than things happening in a way that they don't expect because then it's easier for them to control you which is why they tend to do things with full awareness of the likely consequences they plan and coordinate things in advance to produce a particular effect so then they know if they give you a distinct and unusual scripted response it's going to elicit an interconnected reaction which is related and associated with what they said to you because they have no use for you as a separate and sovereign individual as they specifically targeted you because of your power and worth so that could be unfairable for them instead they want you to be under their control they want you to be their robot a machine that still resembles a human being but is able to replicate reactions automatically and at will to suit their personal wishes and needs because it gives them this emotional high at this disposal which is available for them to use whenever and however they wish and in that moment it makes them feel like their false character is real because when they can dial up certain emotions within you it makes them feel like they own you like you are their possession because they've exercised a million and control over you which is really just another means to suppress their own insecurities but over time they begin to learn you they begin to learn how to make you angry or how to make you sad and then they already know what you're going to do if they make you act a certain way because by that point you're not being your authentic self you're not thinking before you act you're doing something in response to what they've said or done or you're doing it to solve a problem so they already know what you're going to say or do before you even do it because they already know that once they pull you out of alignment with your core identity there's very few things that you can do in response to that but it is also possible for you to catch them off guard by doing something at the latest possible opportunity with their unable to read you and when you do that it will really shock them because they won't be prepared for it and when you do something that they're not prepared for it puts them at risk of being exposed which hinders delays and weakens them because they don't have anything outside of the illusion unless they've already prepared for it so they won't even know how to deal with it because when there's no predictability they have no control three when you reject them if there's one thing narcissists hate is when you reject them they want to be the ones who dispose of you like an object they can't stand the thought of you overlooking their existence and that's why they are the way that they are it's why they have to act so impressive and opposing because the last thing they want is to be overlooked as just another person which is why if you reject them you could be sure that it will leave them questioning their worth and importance because they want to believe that they're all powerful and accessible and protected or exempt from an obligation or the effects of something but when you leave them that is what initiates the following series of events it's not because they want to change or because they're trying to get you back it's because you've already caused a narcissistic injury by rejecting them and now they're trying to use you as a band-aid for their wounds to show themselves that they're not as worthless and insignificant as they felt by you rejecting them which is why you shouldn't even waste your time they're giving them another chance because that's all you're ever going to be to them they're just looking for someone to soothe their bruised ego for when you confront them narcissists go to extreme lengths to convince people of everything that they're not and of all of the things that they will never be which is why it is very shocking for them when you confront them especially when you draw critical attention to their unacceptable behaviors actions because they can't understand how you can see beneath their mask this false persona which everyone else falls for and when you have this ability to see right through them it will make you a target where they will start a smear campaign against you and enforce their flying monkeys no matter what part of the world you're from they always do the exact same thing they're often very predictable they fall the same patterns of behavior which is why it's so easy for me to identify and accurately describe the narcissist in your life even though I have never met them in person five when you cut off your supply narcissists need supply they cannot survive without it and at times they won't even care if it's positive or negative as long as they're getting some form of an a garment or recognition whether it's your admiration and validation or your anger and resentment as long as there's something for them to depend on because they're very insecure so they need your emotional reaction to feel in control they're like parasites or emotional vampires they cling to people of wealth power or influence while they are useless to society so they need you far more than you need them in fact you don't need them at all your life would have been far greater if you never got involved with them so if you cut off your supply and you act dull and uninteresting they experience narcissistic collapse when they feel extremely anxious depressed and ashamed and that is when they may try to ramp up the abuse because they're in desperate need to get to the farm gear while some narcissists may just leave you alone and try to find another source of supply because they need something to sustain them and the more boring you are the more it just drives them away because they can't deal with them having a lack of influence or power over you six when you move on without them the narcissists wants you to be dependent on them at all times they want you to remain under their control forever they want you to feel like something is wrong with you because the last thing they want is to see you break free from their grasp they want you to doubt yourself they want you to think negative but when you release that you find your freedom because you're no longer tied to this person who liked empathy for you and when that happens it weakens and harms them because the last thing they want is to see you stand up for doing something well it affects their influence and control over you so when you heal and you move on from the narcissist they see it as though you've got the better of them and it makes them feel very insecure it makes them question themselves because before you did that they thought they had unlimited power they thought they knew everything there was to know seven when you forget about them when you live your life independently and you no longer need their help for anything it will really shock them especially when they can see that you're doing far better without them then they know that they didn't succeed in destroying you because instead the experience made you stronger and wiser which in their minds means that something went wrong because their tactics did not have the desired effect that attempts to destroy you failed and not only that but you still don't want to need them because you're living your best life as the best version of yourself your happy positive productive and independent which shocks the narcissist and it is the ultimate revenge for everything that they did to you but when you do that you do need to be very cautious and self-protective because it will make them feel very insecure as their false sense of pride and self-esteem is tied to how you're doing and how you feel so for them to feel regulated they have to keep you down and control you which is why if you move on and you start doing better without them you should expect a hoover or some form of attack narcissists don't take it too well when this person that they have manipulated into being this object that exists to serve them and meet their needs sprouts legs and starts doing things for themselves especially when they're doing it well thank you for watching if you found this

Income inequality is one of the biggest challenges facing the world today. It has the potential to destabilise societies and damage future economic progress. We often think redistribution and education are the only ways to address this, but there are many ways to promote social inclusion and encourage growth at the same time. The Inclusive Growth and Development Report takes into account seven key policy areas that can make a difference. Employment and opportunity, providing fair wages and good conditions for everyone. Education, giving people the tools they need to succeed. Financial services, getting savings and other assets working productively. Infrastructure and health services for a healthy connected workforce. Tackling corruption so that rewards go to those who deserve them most. Asset building and entrepreneurship to foster resilience and innovation. Taxes and transfers that are fair and progressive. It is not growth, but the right kind of growth that matters. New Zealand ranks highest in terms of corporate and political ethics and second for fiscal transfers. These provide a sound basis for businesses and people to prosper. Malaysia ranks first among its middle income peers for its real economy investment, meaning more capital is directed towards research and development, infrastructure and business investment. In the low income bracket, Kenya stands out for financial inclusion and the quality of its education system. Every country on the planet must do more to boost inclusiveness. Growth and inclusion can go hand in hand and it's the responsibility of all leaders to make this happen. By working together on the right policy and investments, businesses and governments can play a key role in ensuring that inclusive growth becomes a reality.
