The South African Service Learning Program in Cape Town started in 2005 with the goal of having our young people from Maccadre University to have an insight to global challenges and issues that a lot of people are facing around the world. The Cape Town Refugee Center was founded in 1994. Our organization seeks to serve vulnerable refugees and asylum seekers so we do this by giving them psychosocial assistance. We do this by ensuring a long-term psychological welfare. We also do this by integrating them in the community through our social cohesion program. My organization is Sinalgo. The aim and the goal of it is to keep the children away from street, from the corners and to protect them as well. That's when I came up with the vision of opening up an after school so that I can give them a safer environment. My organization is called Mani Gengi and the main goal is to address the problem of chronic poverty, chronic hunger out there. What it means is that Mani means mother and Gengi means being industrious. So I'm saying let's get out there, let's do something, it starts with ourselves, let's not wait for something or somebody. Tambale to school is a school that caters for learners that are differently abled. They are challenged physically and so they cannot attend a mainstream school. At Tambale to school we are fortunate to have teachers that are very passionate about what they are doing. While our students are studying here in Cape Town they do service learning work with NGOs and schools around the city and they've had a great impact in those organizations that they are working with. They are always very willing, they are always passionate about what they do. So they are carrying forth that tradition in servicing and helping people that's confronted with challenges. I've been very impressed with the level, the quality of work they produce. So firstly our work more than technical is firstly hard work. Hard work in the sense that you need to have the passion for the people you're dealing with and I found that every single market student we've had is passionate about refugee issues, is passionate about development and that comes through you know in the way they learn what we want them to do and the way they execute that. If they've been given a task and that task needs to link into other things the one way to be micro-managed to say do this, do that. The market university students are different from other volunteers because I think it's also their mission and their vision with a Jesuit call to be and to make a difference to people less fortunate. For them being here to me it's something that gives me an energy to work every day to be in this and every day and work with these kids. If they do site work they go to local schools they speak about human rights, refugee rights and they speak about the work that the organization does and particularly they also aim to educate younger children about tolerance and accepting the person who's different from you. They make such a huge difference they bring life to these children they give these children hope they give these children opportunity to develop and become a somebody. But in the minute I join hands with market people with market students that's the time I gain back my confidence I gain back my strength and then I said I am not pulling down I am not reversing I'm moving forward I'm doing what I plan to do what I wanted to do for quite some time so for them being with me honestly they've made me what I am today.


Well welcome to the Donahue Group. We are back after our initial shows and we're delighted that you can join us again. We're a group of four people who live and work in Sheboygan County and we have opinions about just about everything on the planet. Just like everybody else. On a local and state and national level and we're here just to chitchat a little bit about some of those opinions and some of the burning issues of the day. I'd like to introduce our group again. We're hardly household names at this point maybe someday but to my direct right is Ken Risto. Ken is the social studies curriculum and assessment coordinator for the Sheboygan area school district. That was close. That is close and or as he puts it just a simple social studies teacher. Tom Panesky is a professor of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin Sheboygan campus and Cal Potter is a former state senator from this area and also in his most recent incarnation assistant superintendent of public instruction. I didn't get that quite right but close enough. In charge of libraries and me I'm just a simple city lawyer. Last time we met was just before the primary election and for the mayoral race and the only state race of course being that for a superintendent of public schools and it was a surprise I think to a number of people Juan Perez won not handily but won by enough votes that at least was a clear winner. I think that if I remember correctly Juan Perez's percentage was 45 percent to Mayor Shram's 42 percent and then the other five candidates kind of filling in the field and I believe out of the 16 wards in the city Mr. Perez won 11 of those if my memory serves me correctly. I was surprised. I watched the votes come in. What do you folks think? Well I wasn't surprised. I think the visibility of the two front runners by meaning Shram and Perez was very evident throughout the election and that the remaining four candidates splitting a minimal amount of votes was not a surprise to me and even the victory of Perez was not a surprise because I think we had talked on our previous program about some of the big issues whether it's financing regarding Blue Harbor or the building of the police station. There were enough issues that were motivating people to go to one candidate or the other and I don't know that you can say that margin of victory or difference of three percentage points really says a lot but I think I wasn't surprised at all. I kind of put my money on the two candidates coming out of this handily and I think they did. Anybody surprised though that anybody else surprised that Perez actually at least in that I think Cal's point is well taken it was a small margin of victory with a fairly really low turnout of voters but he won. I think you've got a core of people who are going to be opposed to Mayor Shram no matter who is running and I think they're more likely and more energized to get out in a February primary in vote so I thought too that Perez might actually win the primary just because his backers and his supporters would be more likely to show up and vote on the kinds of issues that we talked about in the last episode Cal was alluding to and as we talked about in the last show too I wasn't too surprised when some of the other candidates who didn't make the cut in the primaries actually turned around and threw their support to Mr. Perez so you start adding those in I don't know it means much of anything I think it's going to be who's going to be able to turn out folks in April what the weather is going to be like in April and we're going to be in the middle of a snowstorm in typical Wisconsin weather or whether we're going to have nice weather like we had past Sunday and you know perhaps this is a wake-up call for the Shram campaign saying you know you've got a group of people who really really are energized to work to throw you out of office you better start finding out who your supporters who your people are and and get them out to vote Tom well I was a little surprised if you recall the day before the election I think the police department or police union had a letter to the editor indicating who they are endorsing they were endorsing Mayor Shram and they were endorsing I think Don Van Akron and I think they were endorsing Renee not Janet Jensen or somebody Janine Jeneen running against Montmire Marilyn Montmire so I thought well just the day before you know well that and surprisingly enough after you know the next day the surprise was all three who they endorsed finished second so I thought I'm a little surprised at that so it was kind of interesting and speaking of that the there were a number of aldermanic primaries and I think one of the more interesting ones was Renee Sushia beating Don Van Akron in district two now if my memory again serves me correctly Renee Sushia won the third ward and and Don Van Akron won the fourth ward respectively where each of them lives but that was a close vote too there's some real philosophical differences between those two candidates in terms of maintaining the status quo versus its time for a change any any prognostications on how that one's going to play out I think a lot of the mayoral issues are being revisited by the many different aldermanic races and so I think you're seeing even by the long time placements is around Sheboygan you see coalitions and blocks yeah you see these and pictures of the same candidate with another candidate repeatedly as you go down the block so I think there's going to be a very strong blocking of votes for certain aldermanic candidates as well as for certain mayoral candidates now the mayor said and I think properly so after the election results that only 16 percent of the voters came out to vote that it was a very low turnout historically however April elections in particular don't draw very many voters anyway generally around 30 percent sometimes more and perhaps because it's a more energized campaign with lots of issues we may may see a higher voter turnout do you think the mayor is right that the fact that it was such a low turnout skewed the results or is that just going to continue on through through the election returns I don't know whether there's going to be a bigger there'll be more voters come April of course but how much more because there's only one statewide race and that's the state superintendent race it's not unusual however to get more voter turnout when you have other races there are multitude of school board or multitude of judicial races as well as local mayoral races but right now there's not much so it's going to take a lot of motivation on a part of local voters to get out there but it's going to be obviously not be much higher than 16 percent but you still may end up with only 30 percent of the voters turning out to determine who the next mayor and what the constitution of the new city council in sheboygan is I don't think really the candidates had an opportunity really to flesh themselves out in the minds of most people I don't think many people really paid much attention to the primary we see a little a few letters to the editor we see a couple of articles in the sheboygan press about some of the issues but when you really press people for a good reason to vote for Juan Perez or a good reason to keep me or shram in office whatever it might be I'm not sure people are really getting a sense of what the differences are there's there's some sort of a populist theme that's working working for wands campaign some sense of bringing the bringing the voice of people back to the city hall but I'm not sure if that's going to be enough to really move lots of people I just don't know if there's a whole lot of outrage out there right now in the community that's going to it's going to convince people to vote against an incumbent so on the other hand sheboygan's got a bit of a tendency historically not to keep mirrors in office for very long mayor schneider was probably the exception that go a little bit but interesting to see well there are some groups out there that are working there's this save our parks group not how many members they have and how many people they will be able to drag to the polls I don't know some labor organizations are supporting shram so again what they're able to garner in a way of voter turnout is yet remains to be seen but there are some groups that are out there that seemingly say there's a lot of stake for their membership as a result are going to try to get their members out I think just as the campaign has played out since the primary and this is just my sense and I'd really be interested in in your perspective is that Mr. Perez seemed to have gotten the momentum a little bit more earlier on and I'm very intrigued by the exchange between county board chairman garing county administrative coordinator Adam Payne and the mayor it's almost like Adam Payne is running against the mayor in terms of of how the things are playing out there any sense of how the campaign is going or how what that particular conflict will have in the mix I think it depends upon how I wake up in the morning on the right side some days I think trams moving has you know moving ahead and then something happens and I think Juan Perez is moving ahead so I don't have a good sense of how it's happening in the comments that both the county board chair and the and the Adam Payne have made I I don't know how that that plays out because different people have different experiences with Mayor Schram and I had experiences with Alderman Schram so how it plays out I don't know I do change as day to day and I and I look forward to see what's going to happen next and there is that that core a core group of of city of county supervisors from city districts who are clearly supporting the mayor and who are in some conflict then with the county board chair and and the administrative coordinator so so you're bringing the politics of these two large bodies kind of into into a into a conflict I also remember when Mayor Schneider then Alderman Schneider was running against Mayor Susha and there was just a few group few of us on the council that supported Schneider but most of them supported Mayor Susha and that was an interesting play everybody thought that Mayor Schneider was not going to be a a good mayor they just said doesn't have it doesn't have it and to our surprise he turned out to be one of the shabuigan's finest I think did a lot for the city so I don't know how it plays out but we did have that conflict before and the and and the council was split I think it sets the stage for the whole debate of how adequate we have cooperation between the county and the city when you've got people very visibly several weeks before an election throwing their support one way or another based on what their perception of county city cooperation is I think you can kind of conclude that there isn't a heck of a lot of substance to maybe the the cooperative efforts that we need to have something that's more tangible and more result oriented because otherwise you wouldn't have this ongoing so-called debate and perception about who's doing what and how adequate it is yeah I think if the if the issue starts becoming talking about consolidation of services if all of a sudden people start getting excited about that topic or see that as a significant way to reduce taxes if that becomes the issue or Mr. Perez makes that the issue and people get excited about that then I think those types of conversations may matter in the way people start thinking about how they're going to vote or not going to vote if if people you know I don't think really most people in the city should really care much about what the county chair feels about anything anybody in given moment to put truth be told in their day to day calculations about how things are going inside the city but if it comes to be it does gets to be an issue of of the Sheridan park being linked with a county Sheridan police community and you get all those kind of knit together and people start getting excited about that net or see the connection between those if Mr. Perez can make those connections in people's minds then you know then it gets to be kind of interesting because you know a lot of people say well we like the park but the reality is where do you put the police station if not at the park yeah and then you start getting discussions of of shared you know city and county efforts and it gets to be an interesting kind of discussion but it really needs to get beyond just the police station I mean there I think if anything that I was not a political backer of Governor McCallum but I think if he had anything to say in his last weeks and months in office is that we need to look at then thousands of units of government that we have and see if we can do with less and have some consolidation on that includes school districts I mean we have four and 26 school districts and when you look at the administrative duplication and so on we could probably just my own guesstimate probably do with probably 40 or 50 of those districts and function very nicely there are of course there are many districts that could not consolidate because kids would be on buses for three hours every morning and every evening in which it's just impractical but there are many cases where governments do overlap and it would make sense if we could do some consolidation and we really have not gotten to that seriousness of a conversation as yet and we probably should all right well the the use of the park Sheridan park leads me into our next topic of of conversation again at the local level because some interesting developments have been happening around the Cargill plant which used to be the old Shryer malting plant again in the same neighborhood and in one of the city of Sheboygan's is clearly a working class neighborhood and sometimes bordering on on on lots of poor folks living in the area in fact on my way out here today I just drove by the plant because I think it's interesting that huge former malting plant going right down to the river sort of in prime prime landscape that these days you know if you were developing you would never let an industrial plant get that close to the river to Lake Michigan or whatever the proposal is as I understand it to convert the plant to an ethanol manufacturing plant producing 30 or so jobs and the gentleman who was quoted in the paper last night indicating 100 or so support jobs I'm not quite sure what that means but and ethanol being an interesting product and the manufacture of ethanol being somewhat difficult has raised some controversy there's a citizens group as I understand there will be a meeting with the Cargill people and Utica Energy LLC I believe is the the organization that's going to be working with that with Cargill what are your thoughts on this is this are we going to rezone the inner city of Sheboygan from as I understand it an industrial urban industrial zoning to heavy industrial zoning I think that's the first step is that rezoning process is it going to happen should it happen what are the pluses minuses I'm not sure what the plus and minuses but I had a chance to talk to a couple of people in that citizens group the last couple of weeks because they saw the first show and you know now they come talking to me I'm not quite sure do not let that go to your head no I said Mary Lynn's in charge of this thing and you need to call her but I think I think there again is if Alderman Perez wants to frame this issue along the same frame as his campaign you're going to hear before we talk about substantive let's talk about process I think you'll still you know talk a little bit about the fact that these folks really feel that this was done more or less behind closed doors that this is something that could potentially impact the quality of our neighborhoods and shared in school and the kids over there and and there's just this sense that decisions are being made without people being consulted and whether that's a fair analysis or not you know the perception is is that the city government pretty much gave the green light and this was pretty much the wheels were greased and this is going to happen and thank goodness we found out about it to start putting some sand in the gears and I think if you know Alderman Perez really wants to make that again an issue of how government doesn't listen to people average folks and wants to talk about his campaign being a return of the voice of the people to the halls of government type of approach I think I think that's going to be a big plus for his campaign and I think there are a good number of people I think it's more than 50 or 60 I think it's starting to they're starting to reach out and talk to other people they're starting quite wisely to ask questions as about well it's not just our neighborhood it's going to be what are the properties even in the entire city of Sheboygan to be like when there's the fumes that come from that factory air quality issues when Sheboygan already has some serious air quality issues they're talking about what's the effect going to be at the marina and blue harbor if we get a strong westerly wind in summer which is not that unusual in the city of Sheboygan so they're starting to actually expand the base of concern to beyond the local neighborhood and I think between now it'll be interesting to see how much this issue accelerates in the next couple of weeks and how much science prevails and the mechanism of having input in my years in government I've went through a number of these the Haven nuclear plant was one I-43 was another highway 23 building a four lane highway was another we had landfill discussions at one time eventually with recycling the landfills in manner what counties seem to have been sufficient for our waste disposal needs but those types of situations need to be handled with a great deal of public input and without that then you start getting these accusations that somebody's trying to do something to me and I have no say in that that really as a result of a lot of the controversy for example of locating I-43 we revamped our home and the domain statutes as a result of that power plant siding is another issue the statutes were revamped to allow their series of inputs and so on the public comment so there are models of controversial projects that have been out there that I think send a message that you need to listen to the people and provide opportunity for people to get answers there is really an answer here someplace I mean either this stuff stinks or it doesn't stink and either it's you know is it minimal or not let's find out there's somebody can tell us that based on other plants that have been built around the state and that's the type of answers these people need because there's no reason investing money and then having them of course into litigation and whatever that occurs because somehow well we didn't know it was going to be this bad or whatever happens ensues if it isn't pleasant well of course we always say there's probably no better way in the world to spend money than on attorney fees but that's just my own personal orientation but where there's we shouldn't underestimate the the NIMBY influence the NIMBY process not in my backyard and we see it like not only the issues that I raised but up in Manitowoc County has been some very large farms that have been developing these 3000 head farms and whether the people who are literally maybe several miles away can smell the manure that's produced by thousands of cows is their right to farm supersede their right to have clean air we're seeing it in sexual predators who are released from prison and where you put them Milwaukee news practically every night is filled with where they're going to build housing now because nobody nobody wants a sexual predator released and living in a neighborhood a general neighborhood so they're looking at housing to be built somewhere in the isolated areas to house these former prisoners and so we've segwayed nicely from ethanol to sexual predators but there's no shortage but no not in my backyard is what I'm saying yeah I didn't care outside of all is you know open public discourse and discussion and the bottom line may be the smell I mean IEPA and the state DNR have certain regulations on emissions and everything else so the bottom line may be smell you've got land that's been used industrial it's provided job it's now sitting idle let's have some discussion I think I think Cal you said it all and things like the the I-43 and other things that went on the nuclear power plant I think those have been good things for our state but at the time they were very contentious well and you look at the tax base potentially that the the plant could generate because this is not a tax incremental financing district as I would understand and these folks are not really asking for a lot of money from the city which undercuts you know Blue Harbor someday will be a nice tax producer for the city but not for a while and and so you know we have it has that advantage but it's right smack dab in the middle of the city on riverfront property we've done a really nice job I think of former development director Bob Peterson I think was pretty insightful in terms of the development that has gone along down at the at the river and the water that little water park is pretty pretty sweet for for children you know just off of the Erie Avenue do we want an ethanol plant in the middle of the city I think it's it's a substantial question well we have opt and burned or we have some other plant I mean the city's kind of we've had the plants and the city's kind of grown around and now when they become vacant do we vacate the the plant or do we find another use for the plant interestingly enough I understand that optenberg is looking at they're looking at after a failed attempt by the workers to take over that that failed plant to actually tear the plant down and put in condos and you know that's prime lakefront property and at least in the 21st century we take beautiful areas and we don't put industrial plants right along the water as we did when you know in the old days but we make them even prettier at least try to and I certainly blew harbors as has done a nice job at that we got what you gotta close it up but we got what's called Oz the two smokestacks at the power plant we look out our front window and we see the smoke blowing and we say well there's Oz yes the plume the plume that comes along the that comes along it's interesting too just in terms of process the peaker power plant that is being cited in the town of Sheboygan Falls along the highway 23 corridor hardly pristine land right in that particular area it's right I believe we're county to slightly west of county T and and and the highway 23 intersection old excavating site there was quite a lot of public input required by law as far as I am able to determine ethanol production is not regulated by the public service commission it's not really considered a utility per se they're tremendous financial benefits both for the town of Sheboygan and for the Sheboygan county to have that peaker power plant located there we're talking hundreds of thousands of dollars essentially of shared revenue payments so that the financial advantage is huge maybe a little more tenuous here in the in the city I there aren't those kinds of of statutorily mandated shared payments makes it a little tougher sell well and later on top of that is just again talking with six or seven the folks that are part of this process on the community side there isn't at this point in the process and maybe it'll change as the conversation continues any sort of trust of large corporations who are coming into town I think so far in the process of until this meeting that's coming up there hasn't been a whole lot of communication people are getting their information pretty much based upon the experience of other ethanol plants around the country and you know doing google searches and finding finding those things out and talking to engineers who are on the outside looking in it'll be interesting to see it doesn't help to see the debate that's going on in madison whether all gasoline in wisconsin ought to have a certain percentage of ethanol in it and that whole debate in opposition that occurs it's as energy efficient as some people would like to believe and so on so there is a sort of a parallel questioning about the ethanol economy that some people would like to see some bark upon it'll be interesting to see if cargill is actually able to address the concerns of the neighborhood group to the satisfaction of these folks I they got a tough sell ahead of them from what I can gather at this point and if you'll remember the woodworking plant that I think had been associated with the mooth company woodstock woodstock there we go and a neighborhood group got together and and was not successful in in in stopping the the plan from being built but really put a stick in the wheel I think with its lawsuit you'll remember judge anderson there was a jury trial and minimal damages were assessed and and judge anderson changed the jury verdict thinking that it was an unconscionable verdict and increased the award I think by $250,000 and was rewarded by a recall campaign and so talk about the balancing of of of community values we wanted to you know a judge who thought well you know this was a nuisance and and the neighbors should be compensated for the fact that they couldn't open their open their windows and yet a community that was outraged and I think Mayor Schneider actually was the least well I don't know if he was the mayor at the time yeah I don't think so as we say in the legal world strike that but there was a certainly a community effort to to recall the judge which only only it was defeated by the fact that he'd been in office less than a year in that particular term so well we're gonna have to have folks stay tuned for it because I think as as the whole matter plays out it it's clearly going to be interesting who gets the last word so these are all issues that will be continuing I mean of course this whole issue will play out over months so we'll have an opportunity to revisit it again we'll ask the candidates there we go very good thanks and we'll be back in together again


Why do you hop on and say hello and tell us the fun fact about yourself fun fact about me? I got really really angsty when I was 18 years old and I left home and I got a train ticket I have six kids. I have kids. Yeah. Yeah, we have a middle brother. That's another fun fact He actually has 12 kids so math wise Tyler's kids times Eddie's kids equals the middle brother's kids My fun fact is that if we are ever in Miami, I will make you go get Cuban food with me in high school I thought I would impress girls to write poetry and you know be like Emerson and my fun fact should have been I haven't had coffee today another fun fact about me. I play violin a fun fact about me is my ringer never goes on I'm an OCD person that talks a lot. It's really weird. Yeah, let's homeschooled. That could have been your fact That honestly should have been my fact


Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the instant match reaction, Everton 2. Lester City won a glorious, glorious game of football at Goulderson Park in front of just 40,000 Evertson. None of those statements are true, are they? None of those statements are true. It was a nail-biting, certainly second half, once Lester had got their goal, but listen, first half lots of positives, Anthony Gordon, fantastic delivery and swept home by Richard Larson. We got a penalty, we got a penalty, it went to VAR and they gave it. I don't know why it went to VAR because honestly it was more clear than Maradona's, although Maradona's wasn't given was it so. And Guilfee Shigarton, who I was very surprised was still on pens considering he seems to miss more than he scores, but he put it right brantly and it's Michael and Goals normally a very good penalty saver, but he took it really well and that gave us a 2-0 lead very early on, what was it, 17 minutes. Obviously, I don't know what it was, we just sort of took our foot off the pedal a little bit, stopped pressing, allowed them to come into the game a little bit more. Without really making too many chances, Jordan Pickford had to make one really good save in the first half from Johnny Evans, but we got into half time and we looked quite comfortable. And the second half they brought a couple of subs on, threw a lot more at it, and yet we conceded by in such a disappointing fashion.  The keeper comes charging out, it's blocked and it's the face of the lad and it goes in and suddenly your fingernails are about to get a lot shorter. We had the one where Jordan Pickford completely missed the ball and Michael Keane's there, he put it into his own net, not his fault. We've got another one where Jordan Pickford comes out, completely misses it. But the manager made a little tactical change, with Charleston had to go off obviously through injury, Tom Davis come on. A little bit like if you went back to the Chelsea game when Charleston went off in that game as well and Don played on his own and Tom Davis come on the pitch and we played almost like a 4-1-1. It wasn't quite that in this game. But we started very, very slowly to just get a little bit more control of the midfield because Guilfee Singleton on Jay Gomez was just getting completely overrun. On Jay Gomez, nowhere near the level, nowhere near the pace, he just looks like he's running through treacle. With that change, we got a little bit more control, not much more but I think we stopped them at the right time. Just when it looked like they were going to overrun us and maybe get a second and I thought if they got a second they were going to get a third. We just got a little bit more control and broke up the game a little bit more. And then obviously Jeremy came on for a Wobie and we went on more of a 3-5, well a 3-6-1 really wasn't it? And we again, as I said, we got a little bit more control and they didn't date to be fair. They had a few chances from outside the box but apart from that didn't have very much else. I think the manager saw what the issues were on the pitch and knew that he couldn't do much about it in terms of pacing else. Someone could go on the pitch and change the game for us. Bernard Moron didn't really do much. We didn't see Moise Keane again. And we just tried to snuff out Lester's attack and even though they had 65% of the possession, I think they only had one more shot on target. Apart from the save in the first half from Evans, I don't really remember Jordan Pickford having to make another save after they scored. He's almost caused two goals to go in. So our defence was worked really hard after that. Michael Keane again, magnificent again, hopefully putting all the doubters to bed, me being one of them. Hopefully growing in confidence and winning all those 50-50s and blocks and all the rest of it. And we did defend pretty well. Lester keep the ball well, they move it around and they've got loads of energy, something that we don't have at the moment. And I think what this game highlighted was completely what we need but yet we've got the three points. And we've come back from the break and got seven points out of nine. One of those games that was against the champions. So you can't ask for more than that, of course there's going to be tougher challenges coming ahead. But the manager, I think, is seeing exactly what's needed but we're getting the win. So for me it's a fantastic three-point against the team who were the third in the Premier League. I mean they might be third after, you know, in about an hour. So we done really well to win that game. So yes, very, very nervy but we've got the three points and that's all that matters.

I was a communist for the FBI. Starring Dana Andrews in an exciting tale of danger and espionage. I was a communist for the FBI. From the actual records and authentic experiences of Maths-Semitic, come many of the incidents and its unusual story. Here is our star Dana Andrews as Maths-Semitic, who for nine fantastic years lived as a communist for the FBI. You've heard it said, too often no doubt, that it's a woman's privilege to change her mind. The communists I've known don't go for that theory at all. Rather than have a woman change her mind, the Reds will go to great lengths to change the woman. This practice can be dangerous for the woman and for the Reds. This story will tell you why. In a moment, listen to Dana Andrews as Maths-Semitic, under cover man. Now here is Dana Andrews as Maths-Semitic, under cover man. This story from the confidential file is marked, The Unwelcome Hosts. Sounds very cozy and civilized, doesn't it? Everyone's having a gay old time, and why not? This is a communist cell meeting, and these happy Reds are planning to liquidate an unsuspecting comrade. What could be more fun for a commie than that? Can you imagine her face when she finds herself on the boat back to Russia for discipline? Well, let's get down to business. The control commission has issued a few instructions. Look, comrade Lochet. Oh, yes, comrade Semitic? I'm still not sure why this Rossdorf woman is considered an enemy of the party. It really doesn't matter why, Semitic. Moscow has informed us that she is, so she is. Well, we can't question that, but still... I do know this, however. Sanya Rossdorf was a trusted news correspondent for Soviet publications. She wangled a trip to America, presumably to cover events of the litigation. But actually, it was a way of escaping from the party. But are we sure of that? I'd hate to see an innocent woman punished. Do we doubt the word of our leaders? Of course not. All right then. Before comrade Rossdorf left for America, she confided to one of her close friends that she intended to quit the party and become an American citizen. Oh, I see. And her friend informed our leaders in Russia, that it? Exactly. Now we have orders to see to it that Sanya Rossdorf does not become an American citizen. As a Soviet newswoman, she learned too much of party operations. As soon as possible, passage back to Moscow will be arranged for, and our job will be done. Now, about these instructions from the control commission. Here we are, Semitic. Oh yes, comrade. You are assigned to handle the Sanya Rossdorf project. Me? By me? Naturally, I'll help in any way I can. But I don't even know the woman. And get to know her. You're familiar with the workings of our communist press? She's a part of it. Win her confidence. Make her trust you. Well, look, comrade, I'm very flattered by all this. But after all, I'm no lady's man. Rossdorf woman is a widow and a lone. She probably has a few friends here. Some of them are loyal party workers who keep us informed of her activities. But since she's leaving the party for the bourgeoisie, she must be hungry for someone to trust, someone to help her. All right, comrade, I'll help her. Good. There's a ship leaving for the Soviet in two weeks. It's up to you, Semitic, to help Sanya Rossdorf to be on it. I visited Sanya Rossdorf at the Legation's press room. She wasn't really a beautiful woman, but her smile was shy.  Her mannered gentle. All this added up to a disarming attractiveness. After a few visits, our conversations came easily. Maybe she was flattered to find someone so interested in her work, or maybe she was just eager to find a friend. There. Done. Well, perhaps this dispatch will please our leaders more. Haven't they been satisfied with your others? Comrade Semitic, it is so difficult.  I write what I see. Then I am chastised for it. Why? You don't favor this capitalistic rap race, do you? No, no. Of course not. But in describing the truth, one cannot avoid mentioning the stores so abundant with so many foods, with the gleaming white appliances for cooking, the colorful fashions for women, the untroubled children. No, of course these are all symbols of the superficial bourgeois existence. Sure. I hope you realize that by acknowledging them, I do not praise them. Hey, I've got an idea. As long as these superficial symbols are here, let's let you and I exploit them a little. No. I do not understand. Let's have some fun at the expense of the capitalistic system. Let's squander American money on useless bourgeois entertainments. Oh, no Comrade Semitic. The workers for the cause cannot stoop to impractical pleasure. Oh, don't be silly. I'm as loyal to the party as you are. How can you describe American life if you don't know how Americans have fun? That is true. No, really. I thank you, but I must, you know... Must what? I must... nothing. Good. Let's go. Let's show the capitalists that communists can have fun, too. Little lady, hit your strength.  You ready now? Yes. I am ready. Oh, one, or two. Did I do that?  That's right. Little lady, you got there, Mr. Spock. Look at that. Oh, well you have, ladies, the Cupid doll or the genuine plastic doll, ladies. Well, the vase is more of fun journals on you. Yes, I know. I will take the Cupid doll, please.  Funny about me. I was born to the merry-go-round saddle. You're just nuts. Jump down. That was fun. Well, where to now? Roll the coaster, snap the whip. No, nothing more now. Turnable, so exhausting. Okay, let's sit down a bit. This bench okay? Good. Matt. Huh? Forgive me. For what? I have been thinking. Oh, forget about it. We all make that mistake. No, no, I'm serious. I've been thinking how much you enjoy all this. Sure. Don't you? Oh, yes. Yes, I do. So very much. But, Matt, these entrements, they do not contribute to the progress of our cause, do they? Oh, well. Guess we're a couple of traitors. You're not really worried, are you? Matt, there's so much fun in America. Is it wrong to enjoy things now and then? To do things just for the sake of enjoying them? No, Sonia. It's not the least bit wrong. Oh, I'm so glad, Matt. So very glad that you feel that way, too. Ordinarily, I wouldn't have dared to agree with Sonia. But under the circumstances, Comrade Loche would have to consider my attitude a part of the gag, part of the treachery I was expected to work against Sonia. To Sonia, though, my words of agreement were an act of faith, a sign that I'd be willing to help her. And actually, that's just what I wanted to do. In spite of Loche and the other red cellmates, I was determined not to send Sonia back into the hands of the commies. She could be invaluable to the FBI, in the fight against Reds. I might have figured a way to save her if I'd had the time, but the next day, I received an unexpected visit from Loche himself.  Jittery? Why? I have her eating out of my hand. New orders, Comrade. Moscow is displeased with the latest dispatches the Rostov woman has been filing. They want her taken out of circulation till she sails, next week. What do you mean, out of circulation? She's not that dangerous. Evidently, she is, Severic. She'll have to be taken into custody until we... Take her prisoner? Well, you're crazy. We'd just be calling attention to that. Severic, I'm surprised at you. There are many party members who'd be delighted to keep Comrade Rostov for a week. Maybe even one of her own friends. Yeah, fine, fine. Naturally, we'd supply the opiates and other drugs. Drugs? They're talking like a two-bit melodrama. Would you like to see the orders yourself? They came this morning. All right, all right, I believe you. But what arrangements have been made? How am I supposed to take her on your prisoner? That, my comrade, is your problem. I'll make sure that the other cells in this area are alerted. When you've prepared her for the trap, let me know. I'll see to it that the trap has sprung. Oh, and Severic. Yeah? Work fast. Our leaders want prompt action. If you can't satisfy them, I will. The whole thing was like a pulp story. But this nightmare was real. There was no time for intrigue now. If I didn't get to Sonya fast, Loche would. There was only one thing for me to do. Take the big chance. Bank on Sonya's faith in me. I went to her apartment and told her the truth. The whole commie planned to send her back to Russia. I told her to get out of town. I'd do anything to stay out of the reach of the Reds. But she had no money. And you can't travel far on hope. So we checked through her address book, found the names of John and Mara Levitt. Sonya had met them at a ceramics course. They're all taken together. They were nice people. Mr. Levitt answered the phone. When he heard the desperation in Sonya's voice, he told her to come right over. And that's exactly what we did. Sonya, dear, you have the best room in the house. I'll fix it up with clean curtains and a new bed. Oh, no. Please, no bother. Well, I can see Sonya's in good hands. Don't worry about a thing, Mr. Svedic. She's in very good hands. Oh, Charming. It's Charming's room. It's a good room for her. I'm sure it's very comfortable. Go inside, dear. Take your clothes. Make yourself at home. Perhaps I will only be a moment. Yes, go ahead. Take your time. Oh, Mr. Levitt. Did your wife lock the door? Exactly. I locked the door. What would you expect? But you took the key. Sonya's in... Oh, he's here. I'll get it. Oh, he made good time. We only called him after Sonya called us. You must admit we were fast, eh, Comrade Svedic? Comrade. Well, Svedic, I see you delivered the woman after all. Okay. I must say you didn't give us much warning. At least the Levitts were alert enough to call me immediately. You think you came over here... Oh, if she's going to make that much noise... Don't worry, Comrade Levitt. I brought the remedy for that. Look, you're going to keep her prisoner here. The Levitts are respectable people. By the way, Comrade Svedic, just what did you tell Sonya to make us so willing to come here? Well, Svedic, speak up. What did you tell Sonya? Calling us Matt Svedic. And I was a communist for the FBI. And the second act of our story. I was the spider, the unwilling red spider, and Sonya rust off the fly. But my efforts to keep her out of the commie web had brought her directly into it. And I was caught there with her. I stalled while Sonya hammered on the locked door. Then the Levitts went into Sonya's room with an ominous-looking hypodermic syringe. In a few moments, she was quiet. And Loche was quizzing me again. I'm waiting, Svedic. What made Comrade Rostov so eager to come here? What did you tell her? What do you think I told her, Loche? If I'd lost her confidence, I'd never have gotten her here. So I did the only sensible thing. What did you tell her, Svedic? I told her exactly what you were planning to do to her. What? I told her you were planning to ship her back to Russia. I told her she had to hide to get away, to disappear. Svedic, are you out of your mind? Am I? Think about it, Loche. Think hard. Sonya's in our custody now, isn't she? She's just where we wanted her. Isn't she? Yes. Yes, of course she is. But if that foolhardy plan had failed... It didn't fail, Comrade. If I'd thought it would fail, I never would have used it. You played dangerous games, Svedic. Are you satisfied with the results? Yes, I... I must admit that I am. Then I'd appreciate it if you didn't find fault with my method. I'm sorry, Comrade. Frankly, I admire you. Courage, efficiency, and results. A noble combination. Now, what about Sonya? Is she to stay here or what? She'll stay until it's time to put her on the ship. The Levitts will see that she's properly scared for her. If those sedatives... The roster of women is dangerous to our cause, Svedic. What's more important? One woman's life or the progress of the Red Master Plan? I'd managed to bluff my own way out of the trap, but Sonya was still there, a prisoner of the commies. I'd hoped to avoid calling the FBI for help, but now the situation was desperate. I phoned my FBI contact, explained the problem as well as I could, and arranged to meet him that night. Still are up there? Yeah, it's practically empty. Regular Ethel. Ethel should get a red star from mileage. I'll take the red star, Ethel. Okay, man. What did you find out, Beaker? Can you get Sonya out of the Levitts' apartment? No, man. The FBI can interfere. Sonya Rostov isn't a citizen. Maybe the local police... No. If the cops showed up, the Reds would know. Someone tipped them off. Yeah, you're right.  She's had a tough time. Her husband was accused of being disloyal back in Russia. He was taken away like that. She stayed with the party because it was all she knew. All she'd ever been taught. Okay, man. We'll think of something. And she finally realized the truth about the Reds. A friend turned her in. Better check the aisle. Come on. And what's more, she knows plenty about party operation. The FBI can use her information. We've got to get her out of there. Maybe a Ritter-Habias corpus would do it. Well, oil's okay. Well, how does a habeas corpus work? If a private citizen thinks someone's holding another person illegally, he has the right to make both parties come to court and prove it's all a bugboard. Then let's file a red. Listen, if the FBI pokes around in the case, it'll stir up suspicion. You find us somebody, Matt. A friend who's willing to file that Ritter-Habias corpus. And we'll see that it serves. Okay? Well, I'll try. But with commies in every corner, how do you know when a friend's a friend? All that day and the next, I tried to think of someone who might be willing to help Sonya. I spent another day at the legation in the press room, hoping that someone there might have missed her. But I found no one I dare confide in. That was frantic for an idea, a plan of action. I decided to go to Sonya's apartment to find her address book. I had no trouble taking the lock and getting in. No trouble finding the address book either. I opened the book, looking for a name that might ring a bell. When someone did ring a bell, but it wasn't the kind of bell I had in mind, I held my breath and waited. Whoever it was had given up. I waited a moment and tiptoed to the door and opened it a crack. Down the hall, just starting down the stairs, I saw a little old man carrying some freshly cleaned clothes. They were covered with those large paper wrappers used by tailors and drag cleaners. He hadn't been able to deliver the clothes to Sonya. Maybe, maybe. Maybe this was my cue. Maybe this little old man was the answer. That's right, this is killing me. It looks like hard work, all right. I should be an acrobat better. No, what can I do for you? It's about Miss Rostov's cleaning. Miss Rostov, it's about time I'd like to tell you. Why? Had it been very long? Listen, mister, she brings the clothes last week. She says she's got to have them Monday. Rosh, she tells me. So I break my back to have them for Monday? Nope. This is Thursday. Where is she? Well, she's staying with some friends a few blocks from here. She'd like you to deliver her clothes over there. Over there? Huh? Can't you possibly deliver them? Here, I'll give you the address. The name is Levitt. She needs them. So let her come and get them. Uh, just a minute. Hey, hey, just a minute. Mister, I ain't got time to schmooze. Am I busy, ma'am? Well, I know you are, but you've got to understand. Sonya Rostov is at this address. She needs her clothes, so she can't get away for a few minutes? No, that's exactly it. She can't get away.  She can't get away. Oh, uh-huh. What's the matter? She's sick? No, but she needs all the help she can get. You understand that? Mister, if you got something on your mind, say it. Stop talking in circles. Well, answer one question. Would you be willing to help Miss Rostov if you could? I mean, really help her. All right, all right. I'll deliver the clothes on my way home tonight. Such a federal case you're making. I'll help her. I'll help her. Good. Thanks a lot. Hey, wait a minute. What? What's Miss Rostov to you? Who are you anyway? All right. The name is Loche. L-O-C-H-E-R. Henry Loche. Got the man for you. He runs the dry cleaning shop on Sonya's block. His name is Geller. No, I couldn't take the chance, but I pumped enough curiosity into him. He knows something fishy. Aren't you a turn to take over? Sure. He's got all the decent reflexes. Once he knows you're an FBI man, I'm sure he'll cooperate. That is, I hope he'll cooperate. I was right this time. Mr. Geller cooperated. He filed the writ of habeas corpus, and the next day I learned from the FBI that it had been served on the limits. Now they had to appear in court with Sonya Rostov and prove that she was not their prisoner. It looked like things were pretty well buttoned up, but that night, as I was congratulating myself, I got a sudden thought, a thought that made my flesh creep. Trapped commies do desperate things, and the Levits were ruthless people. What if they tried to duck out on that court order? What would they do to put Sonya out of the way? I grabbed my hat and headed down to the Levits' apartment building. From a doorway across the street, I could see the lights still burning up there in their fourth floor flat. Then, one by one, the lights blinked out. I ran for the drugstore on the corner and phoned Beaker at home. Beaker, listen, the Levits are pulling a vanishing act. What? Wake up, will you? Okay, okay, I'm awake. Tell me again. The Levits are about to duck out. If I called the local police, I'd have to identify myself. Call them, will you? I'll try to stall the Levits till they get there. Okay, man, I'll get right on it. When I got out of the drugstore, all the lights in the Levits' apartment were out. By the time I got to the building itself, John and Mara Levits were just stepping into the street. They each carried a suitcase. Oh, John! Mara! Wait a minute! Hey! I almost missed you. Where are you going? Soretic, we haven't time to talk now. You'll have to excuse us. All right, what's the matter? Comrade, please, don't ask questions. Where's Sonya? Don't ask questions. Come on, John. For just a minute. Soretic, get out of the way. Where's Sonya? Upstairs in the apartment. You left her alone?  I'm sure Comrade Lochet wouldn't appreciate that one bit.  Lochet has done enough damage. Don't worry. We reported him to the control commission. What are you talking about? Just because he can't keep his mouth shut.  Now, get out of the way, Soretic. We haven't much time. Well, what about Sonya? What did you do with her? Upstairs. We fixed it so it looks like she took an overdose of sedatives. Sleeping pills. Now for pity's sake, Comrade. Stop bothering us. Now, just a minute, please. You with the suit. What? Why were you looking? Oh, no, no. All right. There must be some mistake, officer. Mr. and Mrs. Levitt haven't done anything. Levitt, huh? That's who we want, all right. Come on, you two. We got a warrant for your arrest. Oh, officer, I'm sure that's the case. Live on mind. Don't worry.  All right. Let's go back to your apartment. No, not you, buddy. What? You and me. You're not invited. Keep moving. I watched them disappear into the building. Then I walked on down the street. They found Sonya all right in time to treat her for that lethal dose of drugs. She's an American citizen now, and still takes her cleaning to Mr. Geller's little tailor shop. They've become good friends too, Sonya and Mr. Geller. I walk by there every once in a while, hoping to catch a glimpse of them, and hoping they won't see me. They'd never understand why I can't keep a friend. They'd never understand why I stay in the shadows and walk alone. Those will return in just a moment. This is Dana Andrews again with the reminder that free people never have to choose their friends. Their friends choose them. In the story you just heard, names, dates, and places are fictitious to protect innocent persons. Many of these stories are based on incidents in the life of Matt Sabetik, who worked undercover for the FBI. Next week, another fantastic adventure. Join us then, won't you?


Director General Majed Almesmar, Chair Mohamed Alramzi, Director Mario Manevich, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen. What a great honor it is for me to address this conference in its final moments. WRC 23 was a marathon, and as a runner myself, I know that there's always this point in time where you feel that you're hitting a wall, and every new step takes a lot from you. But, ladies and gentlemen, delegates, you kept going. In fact, I would say that you actually sprinted. You sprinted to the finish line, so my sincerest congratulations to all of you. WRC 23 took place at a critical point in the digital revolution. It's a moment where innovation can accelerate the pace of inclusion in the global transition to digital, when technology is racing ahead at a warp speed. It is a moment, as I urged you four weeks ago, to stand together and to harness the potential of radio technologies and radio services to its fullest. And that's exactly what you did. So let me highlight just a few examples, and I'll start perhaps with Space, the next frontier. While our work here is focused on technical, it's a critical enabler to every aspect of ITU's mission to leave no one behind in the digital revolution. And it's a truly historic moment. This WRC has launched an agenda item to create the regulatory building blocks for lunar communications, expanding scientific discovery, and space exploration. Decisions taken here at WRC 23 also help to ensure that ITU is contributing to space sustainability going forward. For example, a more stable and transparent regulatory framework for space services was also agreed at this conference, and the post milestone procedure for NGSO satellite systems was revised. Closer to Earth, you've also enhanced safety of life applications for all of your citizens. For example, you've helped make seafaring safer by supporting the modernization of the regulatory framework around global maritime distress and safety systems. The vital importance of these applications is clear in your decisions to protect radio navigation satellite service and also allocate new frequencies to aeronautical mobile satellite services. We also saw a well-supported compromise for the amateur radio community, and of course it's always terrific to see how active that community is. These WRC outcomes will help them to continue to experiment and explore with new technologies as well as supporting technical competence development. As the world gathered here in Dubai for COP 28 that just recently concluded, they came in search of climate solutions, and we heard calls for technology to help advance climate monitoring, weather prediction, disaster management, and other scientific applications that our planet and our future generations depend upon. And you answered that call through key decisions to protect space research and Earth exploration. You also defined space weather in the radio regulations and endorsed the adoption and implementation of continuous UTC coordinated universal time as the internationally recommended time scale. Many of your administrations have also pledged to our partner to connect Digital Coalition, which is aimed at reaching the hardest to connect communities through partnership and investment. Important agreements on terrestrial services reached at this conference, including support, further support to IMT deployment worldwide, will help to bring us even closer to connecting the 2.6 billion people that remain unconnected. Additional frequencies and critical mid bands unlocking Hibs as a new platform for mobile connectivity give a renewed push to IMT acceleration. Ladies and gentlemen, networks are converging, combining elements of terrestrial IMT, Wi-Fi, satellite and Hibs links and provide for broadband for everyone everywhere at affordable prices. This is a game changer for universal meaningful connectivity. And these are just, of course, some examples of your great work and the BR director will of course further complement these examples, examples of what you have done here in Dubai to really help put the world on a solid path towards a more connected, more sustainable, more equitable and more inclusive digital future for all. These key achievements for spectrum, for space, for science and for terrestrial radio services build on the momentum of ITU's ongoing work to achieve universal connectivity and sustainable digital transformation. But delegates, today, we celebrate more than impressive technical outcomes. The feat that you've accomplished here is ultimately about people, about the people that you serve and ensuring a brighter future for all of them, including women, young people, older persons, refugees, rural communities, indigenous communities and other vulnerable groups. An inclusive digital future where everyone can benefit from technologies that are enabled and are also protected by the decisions of this very conference. Take Resolution 559, for instance. WRC marks the completion of nearly a decade of work leading up to and during the implementation of Resolution 559 on plan bans for broadcasting satellite services. I think this collaborative spirit that you have shown in making equitable access to reality in these countries actually mirrors your efforts throughout this very WRC. These past few weeks may not have been so easy. Mr. Chair, as you well know, there were some long and sleepless nights involved, but ladies and gentlemen, the result, the finish line is rewarding. It shows the ITU family at its best and there are so many people that made this success possible, that made it really a resounding success and I wanna take a moment to recognize them personally and of course, first and foremost, the UAE sixth time host of the ITU family. We thank you for all that you have done for the excellent facilities, the logistics, the amenities, everything possible to meet our needs. It was truly an honor for us to celebrate for the second time your national day with you on the 2nd of December and to DG Majed Al Mesmar and to the entire TDRA team. Thank you, thank you for those tireless efforts over more than three years of preparations from the fantastic, amazing conference halls to the exhibition, to the incredible receptions, to the chess, to the tic-tac-toe, to the mini soccer and the backgammon throughout the venue. That was such a great way to help further stimulate the dialogue and the discussions that made this event so successful. To our chair, Mohamed Al Ramzi, who has been so calm and so steadfast, we thank you for your leadership in steering this WRC to a great success. You led these proceedings with candor, with compassion and with charisma, with your infinite patience, your dedication and your continued sense of humor throughout. I think you really helped to lighten the load in those difficult moments.  To the six conference vice chairs, to the chairs and vice chairs of every committee, the working groups, the drafting groups, the ad hoc groups, we thank you for your outstanding efforts. Let me also take an opportunity to recognize all the women chairs and vice chairs and committee secretaries. They are role models for women participating in future WRCs and I'm so proud that we had more women in this conference going from 18% in 2019 up to 22% this time. And I think what's so incredible is that yes, there were more women represented, but even better, these women were vocal and these women were leading. So bravo and I look forward to seeing more women. Let's try to double the participation for the next WRC. Let me also join the many delegates that have expressed gratitude for the wisdom, the guidance and the patience of the Radio Regulations Board. Thank you for all you do for this great union. And of course, to the director of the Radio Communications Bureau, my friend, my colleague, Mario Manevich and to the deputy director, Joanne Wilson, Secretary of the Plenary, congratulations to both of you for bringing a second successful WRC to bear. Congrats to both of you. And of course to the BR staff, the ITU colleagues that have worked so hard on this conference, both here in Dubai and back home in Geneva. Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for your expertise and your professionalism over these many, many weeks. Of course, a special thanks to the interpreters, the captioners, the IT and security staff, the hospitality staff and everyone else who helped make this event so successful. Ladies and gentlemen, as I said, WRC was a marathon. But the race continues and nobody can run this one alone. In the closing of COP 28, the UN Secretary General said that multilateralism remains humanity's greatest hope. And I think that WRC 23 proved that multilateralism is alive and strong in this very room. I thank you for your excellent collaborative work. We can look to our shared digital future with renewed hope and with faith in our ability to deliver for people and for planets. The next study cycle promises to be groundbreaking, giving ITU our unprecedented possibilities to explore better and more efficient ways to use spectrum and satellite orbits for the benefits of all humanity. Here on Earth, in space and even around the moon, the visionary new agenda item to study lunar communications for WRC 27, of course, is just one example of these very exciting possibilities. 60 years after ITU first began allocating frequencies for space activities. These are extraordinary times for technology and also for ITU. And let's show the world that this not-so-ordinary organization is actually, in fact, quite an extraordinary one. 2024 is gonna be a key year for the summit of the futures that is fast approaching. And ladies and gentlemen, I would encourage us all to build on the WRC 23 outcomes and put radio communications in digital front and center. With that, Mr. Chairman, ladies and gentlemen, I wish you a safe journey back home. My warmest wishes to all of you and your families over this holiday season. And May 2024, bring much peace, happiness, good health, and a more inclusive, safer digital world. Thank you very much.


Hey everyone, welcome to figure fantasy. So we're here again with unparalleled strength So we are now at leap and I have two lineups for you guys for this one for hard and Let's see what they are Okay, guys. So here's my lineup. So you have Yuna here. You have a Zephyr You have Rimaru, Milim, and you have Sani at the back Objectives is five figures must survive and clear this within 22 seconds So also you need to hoard these five here if you don't hoard these five here in in in this kill zone You won't be able to deal a lot of AoE damage. So the objective is to have Rimaru have him head on for Lots of AoE then Milim should be in the middle to deal AoE as well. So and Sani as well. So we're clearing it in 20 seconds So that's the first lineup guys. Let's try it again with the second lineup clear Okay, so for your second lineup clear for the same stage We have here We have Sakura in the middle. So let's try this out same Conditions to clear this one five allied figures survive clear the stage within 22 seconds. So Vasili No, not Vasili. I think it's Irina Irina. You won't be using Irina in this stage So might as well have her rest up for other match ups that you will be able to do in the future So We're down to three Then We're at 43 seconds We can clear this. I think in also 20 seconds. So both stages. No, not this one This is going to be a close 38 seconds or 22 seconds to clear As you can see there also three stars for this lineup Okay, so that was a hard stage So we're now going to torment and let's see we only have one lineup for this one Let's see how it does. Okay. So this is your lineup for torment So it's the same lineup as the last one that I had Clear the stage in 22 seconds and all five should survive. So trick here again is to put Rimber in the middle for an AOE attack as well as Milam and try to As soon as possible clear the stage We're down to 50 Yuna should survive There you go 45 15 seconds We're down to 43 42 We're clearing this in 21 seconds, okay That is it guys those are my line-ups for today's Stages so thank you very much for staying as far. So hopefully You will subscribe to my channel because this helps my channel out. Thank you guys. Stay safe. Take care It's the warden and I'm out of here
