This video shows one solution to lesson three, practice exercise A, which determines the percentage of cities in the state of Washington that have park and ride facilities. The script begins by importing the ArcPy site package, and then I put this line five to overwrite output equals true, which is useful when you're writing scripts like these where you'll be doing some testing and you'll often want to overwrite the output files. Otherwise ArcGIS will return an error message saying that it cannot overwrite an output that already exists. So that's a tip to take from this code. In lines seven and eight, I have string variables that I'm creating that have the paths to the feature classes I'm going to work with, the city boundaries feature class and the park and ride feature class, both from the Washington file geodatabase. I'm also going to be updating a field in the city boundaries feature class called has park and ride. I'll be setting that to true or false. And so I make a variable for that in line nine, and you'll see that used later. And then in line 10, I'm starting a counter that I'm going to use in my code to count the number of cities with a park and ride. And I start that off at zero. In line 12, I move into a try accept block of code. In this solution, I show some examples of how you might do error handling and return messages. Usually if you leave these out, your script will return nice error messages to you anyways that you can use to figure out what line has crashed. However, if you distribute your script to an end user, they will want to see nicer messages. So the try and accept blocks can help that you can put your own custom messages in like I did in line 20. But for now, we have a try block and we're going to try to make two feature layers. We'll make a feature layer that has all the parking rides and a feature layer that has all of the city boundaries. And for both of these in line 14 and 17, the make feature layer tool has two parameters that we supply. The name of the feature class is going to act as the feature layer. And then the second parameter is a name that we will use to refer to this feature layer throughout this script and only this script. So this is a name that is in the computer's memory. For example, in line 14 for the park and ride layer, we just call it park and ride layer. We can name that part of it anything we want. So we've got these two feature layers that we can now perform selections on. And in line 24, we're going to do a location selection to select all cities that contain features from the park and ride layer. If we were to do this in ArcMap, which sometimes it's helpful to do to see what's going on. Here I have the park and ride symbolized by black dots in city boundaries that are gray lines with orange fill. And in ArcMap, I can do the same thing where I select by location. And essentially we're selecting features from the city boundaries that completely contain the layer of park and ride. So you can see all those elements there. And then this is the selection of cities that do have a park and ride facility. So line 24 is showing how you would do that with code. And once you've got that selection, then you can then do things with it. So for example, in ArcMap, if I wanted to work with these cities, I could open the attribute table. And I see that some are selected. And then I could just work on those selected rows to do something. And so we're going to do that in Python by opening an update cursor. And the cursor is just going to work on that narrowed down layer of cities. So it's important to know that in line 24, you started with the cities layer that had all the cities.  And that's what is going to be applied in your update cursor. So this update cursor will not update everything. It will just update the cities that are currently selected. And it will only be able to update the fields that you specify in the second parameter. So where I've put park and ride field and then a comma. That is a Python tuple with one item in it that represents the field I'm going to edit. And that is the has park and ride field. So cast your minds back up here with line number nine. That's where I created that variable that I'm passing in down in line 27. And so what I have is a cursor that can then go row by row. And I do that using a for loop, which is in line 28. And in line 30, I take that has park and ride field and I set it to true. Now, why do I say zero there in square brackets? Zero is the index position of the field that I passed in in that tuple in line 27. So in line 27, I passed in a tuple with just one field, park and ride field. And because it has one thing in it, that's at index position zero. And that's why I say row zero. If I was updating three or four fields, I would have row and then the field index position in a bracket. It could be one, two, three and so on. After I've made those changes, I need to call update row in order for them to be applied. And this is a mistake that a lot of beginners make. So in line 31, I'm calling update row. And in line 32, I'm incrementing the counter that I'm keeping of the number of cities with the park and ride facility found. So I just add one to the counter. The plus equals one is a shortcut for saying take this number and add one. After looping through all those things, in line 35, I start a finally block which would run whether or not the above code failed. And it cleans up those feature layers so they're not stuck in the computer's memory. I could put those in an accept block perhaps, but I wanted to put them in finally because those need to be cleaned up whether or not the script crashes. So that's what's happening in line 36 and 37. Now that I've done all those things, it's time to do some math to figure out the percentage of cities that have a park and ride facility. So in line 40, I'm running the get count tool in ArcGIS. You could run this tool directly on a feature class. So here I don't pass in a feature layer, I just pass in the string path to a feature class. Notice in 40, I reference that city boundaries variable. That's a variable that I created up in line 7 and it just has the path to the data. When you use the get count tool, you have to also call a get output method to get the actual result and convert it to an integer. Now this is a little complex. Don't worry if you don't understand it all, but just follow the examples that are in this code or also the ArcGIS help code for the get count tool. So what we have in the end in line 41 is a variable called numCities that is the total number of cities in the entire data set. And then we've already been keeping this counter of cities that have a park and ride. So to find the percentage, all we need to do is divide one by the other and that's what's going on in line 44. Now there's a little extra things in the equation here. We take 1.0 and multiply it by the number of cities with a park and ride because we want to do some decimal division. If we didn't do that, it would perform integer division by default and we wouldn't get a nice percentage figure. So we take the cities with park and ride divided by the number of cities and then we multiply by 100 to get a nice interpretable percentage figure. And then we can print out the result at the end of the script in line 46.


Oh is The camp cretaceous DLC, oh not camp cretaceous just cretaceous pack I think it is read the early cretaceous the camp cretaceous and now we got the cretaceous pack I think so we are in here not only to showcase this DLC and everything that goes with it But also to showcase the new free Update that they put in the game and this is actually really good because well first start It's free, but it adds some like life changes into the game like I don't recall it I had life enhancement changes, whatever, but you know what I mean Someone's like you mean this beaver's goddammit So before we get into the new dinosaurs one thing right of the bat you'll notice is the lagoon actually looks Like different what what is this? You can put stuff and I'll slow this down as we're going really fast Stuff at the side of it if we go down into the decorations you now have this You have the lagoon decorations a lot of them are for underneath in the ocean I was it you know in the woods But you do have a couple that are for the sides now. I've used all of them. Oh look at me Can't help myself again excited. So you've got some tree. Oh god. Nope. Well, you've got trees here Which is weird because they're kind of just floating and in a way I kind of want them floating more out into the lagoon rather than stuck to the side things like these sails or Possibly this where you know, it's actually on the side makes sense Now, I don't know if you can actually put them on the side of the viewing things like this It would appear not Unfortunately That's a bugger that I mean it would it would sort of You probably wouldn't be able to see much if you had this in the way I suppose, but you know, it's worth a shot So you have all of these you've got like some cool ones with different flags on you've gone with fire You know a bit like Jurassic Park a lot of these things really feel like they were already in the game But now, you know, they've taken the asset out and now they've placed it in their own sort of thing So hopefully I'm gonna cover everything you need to know everything you can see in this including Animations as well and you might be thinking. Okay, this is interesting, but you may also have noticed It's very hard to see but down here. There is a little Purple light we'll get into that later But first we need to dive down into the lagoon to see the adominus Rex skeleton Now they have added if we look at our decorations loads like look look at one two three four five ten fifteen Twenty twenty one including the indominus Rex Underwater things to spruce up your environment and they've obviously listened to the feedback And there was a lot of feedback that the lagoon's and also the Avery's kind of felt very left out Like they were just these things you placed in and you looked at it and it looked pretty So they've decided to change it and they've added a load of different things However, this is everything. This is everything you're looking at here. Now. Does it look? Different No I'm gonna be honest like it's cool like all of these are slightly different even this I think is a nod to Jurassic Park 3 with the boat at the start they gets numbed on with I Think the spider so because it doesn't oh, maybe it is the boat from the spider so when it attacks them It could be when the attack basically spider so attacks a lot of boats It could be either one the one in the beginning all the one with Alan Grant and Ellie Sadler when he's ringing They're like But anyway, so you also have this this is a couple that have actual fish on them And this is one of them. This is the biggest one also bubbles, but the fish are very well, they're motionless They don't do anything and they take pictures every now and again It's supposed to be like the glint of the scales of the fish body moves But they they're very much png's that's static and sort of go on and to be fair I can sort of understand where you know your frontier are coming from They're not gonna rig fish and make a shoal sort of appear That's probably gonna take up a lot of time especially when you're doing it for multiple consoles as well as PC What looks really good is when you get it just right hold on so if you just skim At the right point there look at that now you actually have color now. It looks different however When you're under the water it kind of looks all the same You do have this which is quite cool something that's I just noticed now like why can't I move okay? There we go. I can't move because I'm apparently the side of the lagoon you have volcanic vents here Which is cool So you've got reefs you've got volcanic vents or at least one of them and you've also got the endominus rec skeleton So you're just a part three strike you got a drastic world Easter egg That's cool So it's a bit of a shame that they all look the same and you know it is what it is unfortunately However, there is one more cool thing that comes to the Lagoon's if you go into the hatchery you have a new tab called overview for the lagoon pilot drone So now you can actually go up you can go down look up look down look all around The only thing that I would say would make this a lot better Let you can kind of recreate the scene from Dominion But oh sorry a fallen kingdom where they collect the Indominus Rex DNA then the problem is that's as low as you can go Now you can scan you can medicate you can tranquilize and you can also stimulate or stimulate I assume the dinosaurs don't exactly know what that means, but we'll get into that when we start releasing things The only problem and oh hold on you can go first-person mode. Oh sweet. Yes. Look This is so cool. Okay. I don't want to scan. I was gonna say I thought that you weren't able to Go in first-person mode, but you actually can but however the only way you can do first-person mode is like this So you get the crosshairs which is a little bit of a shame It would be cool to have like hood like you are a bit like your iron man You know I mean like you can see all the data like depth and altitude and oh you know what I mean Sort of like as you go up and down things rotate like a compass rotate that would be cool But alas we don't get that but it is a nice addition So if we jump straight into the Avery as you can see now into here There's like there's a couple of new decorations when it comes to land stuff However, you can't place any of these decorations down which again is a shame It would have been cool to have a coral reef But again the reason why I think you can't do this is because if you place down the fish one Of course, you'd have fish floating around and that wouldn't make sense But it would be nice to have had like regular ones that don't release bubbles that could just be placed here Or well, maybe not on the Avery or it could be a beach even that would be kind of cool Now these have lights and as you can see oh, you can't really see it's supposed to be purple and blue and things However, if we go into decorations, there's a new button For lights now if you click on your color tab It instantly turns it tonight and you could actually check out what colors you want to put on things and it's as simple as Just clicking on a color and dropping it.  You can't do it to amenities And actually if we go on decorations you have a look at these are all the ones that you can do again This search light would have been so cool to have had out of the lagoon. It's interesting Actually, it's making like underwater sound effects. Oh, no, it's just a coral reef It kind of looked like something but yeah anyway, so you can change all these lights you especially the fountain as well Which is one of the more Interesting ones to change because I actually changed the whole thing whereas some of them like the amber statue Only changes the the spotlights on the outside Which is a bit of a shame because it would have been cool to have the amber illuminate from underneath and in fact You know if this was real life, they would a hundred percent have lights underneath the amber to illuminate a bit Anyway, that being said you also get a drone For the avery which is interesting and it sounds just as glorious as a real drone does And of course with this one you can take pictures Uh, you can kind of see the drones, uh, or you can turn all the way around. Oh, look at that I should done that with the other one. Uh, you can also you should have an aim mode. Yes. Yes There we go. So just like the other drone. Can I bump? Oh, can we go through? Ah, it's like x games or whatever you want to color with all the drones So how about we get into the you know the the part you've been waiting for the new dinosaurs and it is These sticks asaurus that you can only get three of these in a max batch But this thing is huge now randomized. Oh, hello I've randomized the uh colorings on it. So each one should be different. Oh, wow. That is like a Bioluminescent one and I think this is one of the dinosaurs that actually has bioluminescence on it Oh I don't know which skin it is that has it and we can actually take a look at it But look, I think this has the longest neck of any please you saw in the game That's saying something a lasmus or there it is Uh, so what we'll do is we'll just release a couple more see we can get some different angles You know check them out. I have put the voice on actually, but it appears That they don't have any voice lines. I thought maybe we would get some you know information about it Maybe it's because it's sandbox and maybe we do or maybe I've done it wrong. I don't know Whoa, that's a nice look at that blue. Oh these look great. Oh, that was cool Little bit of clipping but you know, it's to be expected especially in an enclosure that is kind of this small But what I wanted to do was just quickly make a mosasaur And just see if we had an interaction between those two because I'm sure we'll have interactions with everything But you know, we want to see the mosasaur. Let's release the mosasaur Really he should go for the neck that's what I'm gonna think and it's been so long that I can't even remember What the kill animation was for the elasmus saw so if it does do it, I'm gonna be very confused Oh, oh, of course you talk about this one. Yes, let's change that.  I did not expect that Well, I mean longer and you was gonna be bigger, but I didn't think it was gonna be longer Jesus really they uh, they definitely jumped the mosasaur on this one. Good. God. Okay. Let's follow it around And hopefully it should attack one. Oh before we do that actually hold on before it does that Let's do this We can go in first person, but oh look at this. Can we scan? Although it's not really like I take photos taking photos. Yes If only we didn't have these black bars on it would be beautiful So dive down. Oh, this is cool. Look at this This is awesome. We can actually get like a Feeling of what it feels like to be in the water with the moose. Wow Smile Oh, look at that. Yes 200,000 money was that easy to make money, right? Actually going third person works too Just not as well.  I really like this. This is such a good idea. Hello Are you going after that guy? Please do I'd like to see it You know be really cool If we went back to that park we made where we put loads like hundreds almost of aquatic creatures together And then just took a drone through and just like swam around that would be so awesome Yes, we got one. We got one, baby. Okay. Okay. Hold on. Can I go and capture mode? Okay, I don't know which one he's going for. Oh god. Oh, it looks like it's this one I think I think it's this one he's going for Here we go. Oh bite of the flipper Oh, Jesus. And then the pull of the neck. Okay, that seems yeah That seems to be the same as uh, elasmus or his death animation. So Well, I mean at least we've got to see it that look kind of cool on to the next ones Right, so let's go on to these guys. I didn't even know what these ones are called Oh, that was cool like a little running animation. That looked sweet Are you kidding me? You have you you talk for these ones, but you don't talk for the sticks.  Thanks to its boomerang shaped wingspan Let's just keep them safely contained. Okay Okay, I trust them to come back of their own accord Right, so I mean these I oh wait did I make these all the same? Oh, I think I made the first batch the same before I changed them But interesting, you know, it's not a dinosaur that I was kind of wanting or Expecting if I'm going to be brutally honest But it's nice to have a different one. I think there's a lot of dinosaurs that we want in Jurassic world Evolution to and especially, you know with Jurassic world dominion. We haven't got the atrocer raptors yet, but I get the feeling that we're probably going to get atrocer raptors at christmas We always get a dlc around about christmas time Um And I feel like that'll be the atrocer raptor. That'll be the listrosaurus And anything else like the over raptor that's missing Um from you know the dominion movie Whereas this feels like oh, they've had this plan for a while And then they didn't know where they were going to slot this dlc in But now that dominion's out they're like, oh, okay. Well, we've done that now We do this one and then at christmas you can get the atrocer raptors So don't worry. I I already know there's going to be comments like where are they? Oh, they might have a unique kill animation for human beans actually Oh, that would be interesting We'll check in with those later when I get them to break out But first We should have a look at the newest nodu I didn't know the newest herbivore in this which is the alamosaurus. I think you did definitely not But it's like a like a giraffe a titan It's quite a unique uh looking sauropod Um, it's it's almost like what I imagined It's got a very I don't know like nineties dinosaur thick head It's like kind of broad like something from the dinosaurs, but I'm expecting you to Be very needy and do not be happy in this enclosure. Look at this. Oh, oh, he's got like sad eyes Oh, bless it So what do you even need or you're not even out yet because there's a second one You can only get two of these Which I think is par for the course. I think most giant sauropods can either have one or two and this is I think Not the biggest okay, so it needs oh, it's got bracken poison or it's already vulnerable So needs a love stone not and forest and actually this is enough open space for it already But it doesn't have anything else. Oh never mind. They're already coming out. I didn't get an introduction for that one sweet So some interesting colors I like this sort of pattern that's on the uh the back of the neck there Look at your face very cute very cute But again, I think most people that like sauropods is just these things that either they can get a lot of star rating um, but when it comes to You know anything else kind of just stand there and just demand a lot They don't really do much else. So with that being said, how about we look at something that isn't so demanding but is entertaining The austro raptor or austro venator. I can't remember which one it is. Oh, look at you. Oh Oh, look at that the three-quarter angle Oh Now this Definitely has a cool unique animation if you just look at it for it Yes labeled the cheetah of its time and I can certainly see why Here we have a hunter with terrific speed power and focus the makeup of a perfect prehistoric predator really Just don't get spotted because there's no way you're going to outrun this one Oh, yes, that looks really cool. There's always one dinosaur with these dlc packs that have unique animations And you know, you've got like the stick saw which is the elasmus. So you got the the Oh not okay So as I was saying in every dlc you get a unique dinosaur I think it'll have it like a guanadon was one and in this one I'm pretty sure it's going to be the astrol. What's it called astrol venator. Yes. That's the one here's astro So i'm putting it in with a It's our archaeon of the mimus and hopefully we'll get to see all the unique animations because there's definitely gonna be a few Okay, here we go. We have a hunt and it just sort of ran straight towards it Oh, oh, okay. You're gonna No, no, we're hunting. Oh, we're hunting this way and oh, yes, there it is Oh Oh, we're definitely gonna need to see that again from like the proper angle because it's sort of like clawed the head Oh, that looked awesome Right, so it's actually not okay with a population of one or two. It probably needs three I would assume but the colorings are great. I love the difference from the blue To the the orange head that looks so nice. Look at that Okay, here we go another hunt. He's a guest Now if I remember correctly, it depends how it's gonna pounce on it. They get the feeling Oh, yes the action shot. Here we go. At least we get to see from this angle Yeah, oh the stab on the head glorious sort of release animation as well As there loads of different colors. I know we've got another one. Oh, that's right Yeah, I accidentally put like rana on all of them and this is a lovely shot of grass What and hopefully this won't be grass It's a bit of a shame of the lighting but these will 100 be different colors different patterns Oh, no, it's another shot of grass. I love looking at grass. It's brilliant Yeah, look at this one This one looks so cool The bright red one looks kind of cool too That looks like a throwback to the original like velociraptor toys used to get from kenner Okay, now to release the little dindins the homalosephaly to see just how it has fun with these You're going to die on me Yes And just to say you get like a little bit of a head start here comes the other one. It's like Look at me. Yes Oh a fight between two of them. Okay. This is interesting Ah, okay. It's the classic. It's the roly-poly, but oh look at that skin, but that looks so good Oh wait, hold on. That's that's a moza. Well, we you know what we we can see another fight. Why not? Oh Yum Oh, oh wow. Oh, yes. Oh the clipping on that one was insane Beautiful Oh, I kill the one with really nice colorings That has to be like if this was night that has to have glowed in the dark surely Oh, okay I barely had time to catch that one, but I think we're about to see Oh god. Yep.  You know that the image of like the lioness or the cheetah with the baby deer or whatever it is Yeah, this kind of looks like that. I don't know if he's going to move anymore Oh, oh no Okay, okay, we definitely need to get rid of all this grass because it is a hundred percent getting in the way Oh, hopefully this time. Oh Oh, oh, it's running run little malosephaly run No Oh, so it's all pins it down kicks it with its feet and then bites its neck Oh, no poor baby, and then it goes All right while we're waiting for those to incubate Let's release another one and this time just see what this guy can do Against, you know, like a carnitaurus a medium carnivore I always get the feeling that whenever I do bows with carnitaurus, they're gonna glitch and I don't know why that is I feel like I've just had a lot of things in the past where that sort of happened Go on then we need to see loads. Okay. Here we go another hunt for the hamalosephaly and oh, yes Actually, we'll be able to see a little bit here Yum yum yum yum. Oh Oh, beautiful. Wow. Oh well, we're good to sit here and eat it again Wee Oh, I think we have it All the carnitaurus Right now How is this going to go carnitaurus should definitely probably win this looks like it just needs the headbutter and it would break all the Oh Yeah, okay, maybe we need to you know genetically modify one to uh make sure it stands a little bit more of a chance than that Oh, I can have infinite modifications So it's going to be the fittest it's going to be the most defend first Oh dear Frontier please in the next update allow us to click on the goat. I want to see its health and everything It'll be so good to be able to actually have like a goat as a dinosaur that you could click on it You could see you know it's wants and needs Please do that would be so good. You've made planet zoo Just put that in put all the animals in planet zoo. That'd be brilliant This raises an interesting question. What is it like not against the carnitaurus? We do not need to see that but against a velociraptor. Oh, maybe we should even do the para raptor even Are you panicking because of the hadrosauce? Really?  Oh, that would have been brilliant.  Is it the same as the homalicephaly? Yes, it is Oh, no. Oh It looks worse at a goat for some reason. Oh, yeah, I forgot to feed these guys I I have no idea. This this thing does not want to hunt a carnitosaurus Yep, it's not even hunting them and it's going to starve to death. Wow. That is interesting All right, then here they come. Nope. Don't don't want to don't want to work together. Nope All right then I guess for some reason These are the only dinosaurs that do not take on freaking carnitosaurus or hadrosauce Oh, but they'll fight each other. Uh, okay That makes sense. All right, then the one and only freaking para raptor Who will would probably take on a carnitosaurus? It's half the size of the thing. Oh, I think it's already calling over one of them Yeah, I think it is Here he comes. Oh, actually they are the similar size. I suppose this should be quite interesting Right, let's see a green versus red Oh, it goes for the first hit. Ooh, that's promising.  Oh, that was beautiful Wow That was cool Did you even take any damage? No, we didn't Oh, damn That was cool. I like that. That was awesome. Right. Okay. Now. Let's see what an austrovenator does Against something like, you know a draco rex sort of medium hurt before because that can't pick it up like a homalicephaly Scratch it and throw it away. It's a bit more dangerous, but it's not the same size as a caritas or for instance Okay, this is interesting. I was not expecting them to actually have a battle I thought he would just straight up kill it. But apparently the draco rex can defend itself Oh That was cool. He's almost hopped over it there Oh, that was supposed to be damage for it. Oh, it did it again. So it's not biting it It's actually like using its long limbs to sort of get hits off on it, but it's also taken some damage Oh Oh, that looks cool. I like that draco rex doesn't look too hot though Let's see. Oh Is it gonna die? I don't know Are we gonna call this off? Yes, we're calling this off. But wow Look at you. Okay. Here we go 100 percent on the carnival and I think the draco rex is on 50 percent. So this should be a kill It's already got two victories should have better been for me It's already lost against it. So I'm expecting to see hopefully another glitch Oh, oh Oh, yes That was great Geez We need to see that again on something else that animation lasted a long while Okay, and now let's see what indoor raptor has to say about the new dinosaurs Oh, no, never mind.  Wow You don't think all that weight on the indoor raptor would like have crushed it, but no, no, no It's like actually it's fine. Okay. Do we get to see this fight to the death again? Because this was so good out of all the death animations this thing has had or the kill animations This one look at that the bite it tries to go for it Like dodges around claws it takes it down claws at the head turns it out. Oh my god. That looks so good I love it. This came to the spine. It's like, oh, yeah. Yeah, that that's happening. Oh, okay I want to see the other angle, but I think we're probably gonna get it the same way Or maybe not.  Oh, sorry atrociraptor. Ostroraptor kills this thing straight away. Ostromanade. God, never Too many dinosaurs. I was kind of hoping that the rex would instantly kill it But that doesn't seem to be the case. However, uh, there it is It would have been way more satisfying to have it like bite down and then shake it around and stuff A bit like how two rex kills the inter-raptor But no, we don't get that. All right So we've only got a couple things left and that is the Ostroraptor Ostrolovenator is kill animation with human beings.  Look, there's so many to choose from Why do you always kill people in the shadows? Oh for god's sake There you go. Now you've got nowhere to hide. Don't you dare? I see that blooming tree shadow Which one you're gonna go for buddy? Oh, oh, is it this dude?  You couldn't make this up. Good god. Oh the Finally good god. Okay. Let's see. Let's see this animation in all of its glory Go on. Who are you gonna get? Oh, there it is. Pins him down and Why why are you always bad angles with you? It was not shadows as bad angles. That's it. It's all getting cleared. Okay. This could be it. Yes Oh, lovely. And there you go.  They're the better ones. They look so good Hey, so that being said there's only one thing left to do and that's let these guys out But first they've got to bump themselves on the glass like about a million times Yeah, there you go. There's nobody here No, you're gonna have to go further afield and deleting all this so you can't perch on it Oh Oh Why didn't it just squawk into the Into the ground and there we go It's working. Well, that's a weird animation. I've never seen that one before. Oh, it's like, yes, it is It's hunting down the homalosephaly. Oh, I was wondering if it was going to have this animation All right, go on then. How are you going to do it? How are you going to kill it? Everything always kills homalos And it does it in the bush. What why'd you always do it like this? All right, then continue so you've sat on it and then what?   Oh, no Although saying that it it might actually be killing a human out. No, I don't know It's having a look. But uh, yes, if you've enjoyed this video do leave a like I'm assuming that the next DLC we'll get will include the atrocarapters and listrosauruses and you know the things that we kind of miss from the dominion DLC So don't worry. Um, I feel fairly confident. We'll get that and those seem like good things to sort of wait Um and like hold off for for christmas because that's when they know that you know people will want to buy and All that jazz, but if you've enjoyed this video leave a like and until next time. I'll see you cuties later Bye


First of all I'm delighted to be here. I think that the IIEA is not only a really good organization for forcing people to think in a slightly broader way than we often do but I also think it's a hugely relevant organization and I think the the agenda that has been set for today and the theme of the conference today is one that is an extraordinarily important one for Ireland as well as global populations and European populations outside of Ireland. My job is to respond in terms of how this country plans to take forward what I regard as our most important industry not only indigenous industry but but industry as a whole which is the agri-food sector which involves primary producers i.e. farmers and fishermen but also involves processors, food companies, marketing people, agencies like Borde Bia and so on. Many of you will have heard me speaking over the last number of months about the context under which the Common Agricultural Policy Review is being debated this time round. I think a number of things have changed fundamentally in the food debate in the European Union and I think that over the last six months in particular there has been a realization amongst many people who in the past had had taken a very simplistic approach towards how we feed the European population which was based on importing cheap food imports to try and provide food as competitively and as cheaply as possible for our consumers. I think the debate has become a much more sophisticated one now. The issue of food security is now centre stage and the importance of Europe producing not only its own food but also the contribution that the European Union has to make in feeding the world in a much broader sense and I think the Common Agricultural Policy in the past has been about protectionism. It's been about creating an artificial market for food production in the European Union that limited supply in order to drive demand in order to keep an artificially high price for food which by the way was necessary because we were asking our primary food producers to produce food under conditions that were not being applied in other parts of the world and therefore it was more expensive to produce a liter of milk or a ton of grain or a ton of beef in the European Union than it was in other parts of the world and we needed to compensate farmers for that and rightly so and so as European consumers demanded and the European political system demanded high standards around issues like traceability, animal husbandry, disease control and all of the other things that have been a really good thing for developing a standard and a brand and a promise around Irish food of quality and consistency of supply that had a price tag and that's what the Common Agricultural Policy was about in the past as to how we would manage that artificial pricing and support of food production in the European Union to keep our farmers intact, to keep rural communities alive but also to recognise the fact that food production in the European Union was different to other parts of the world and the debate is still around how we keep that quality intact but it's also seeking a new dimension now which is how do we increase volumes also and how do we increase volumes under the kind of new and extraordinary pressures that we now know about that make it more difficult to do that. Climate change being probably at the centre of that but not just climate change there are other issues also that I want to refer to here so the context for this is actually a very simple one to understand. The demand for food is growing and will continue to grow at an extraordinary rate year on year and the question is how do we meet that global demand for food. Back in and people will have heard me say this before but back in 1960 there were three billion people on this planet by 1990 that that number had doubled to six billion people we're now just under seven billion people by 2050 the figure will be nine billion people and not only that but the population of the world in itself apart from the growing number is actually moving into towns and cities so it's urbanising and with that people are becoming what have been you know rural dwellers often relying on a pretty simple diet around carbohydrates are now moving into towns and cities they are becoming middle-class people who are demanding more choice more options and a better diet around protein and as has been referred to by the previous speakers that creates an extraordinary both obligation and opportunity for countries like Ireland that has the capacity to produce more food at a consistently high quality to actually meet that demand but I think that there are a number of things that need to be recognised if we're going to be allowed to do that. First of all and this may be slightly controversial for for some of you in my view the European Union is giving fantastic leadership on the climate change debate in most areas but when it comes to complex relationship between food production and climate change in my view EU policy is all wrong. We have taken a fairly simplistic approach towards setting climate change targets for the European Union by breaking it up into targets for each country and Ireland has signed up and has a legal obligation to meet the targets that we signed up to which is it in rough terms a 20% reduction in emissions by 2020 outside of the ETS sector but outside of the traded sector agriculture makes up more than 45% of our emissions so on the one hand we have this extraordinary demand on countries like Ireland to actually increase food production and at the same time we are saying that 40% of our emissions problem comes from an area where we're going to be seeking potentially significant reductions in terms of emissions and so there is this assumption made that if somehow Ireland reduces its agricultural output in order to meet climate change targets that we're somehow doing something positive for the climate change targets that are being set globally when in fact what we're simply doing is moving food production out of a country like Ireland to somewhere else in the world we're outsourcing the problem which makes European figures look good in terms of emission targets but is doing little or nothing in fact in my view has a negative contribution to make towards global emissions so this isn't the same as transport or home heating or some other sector that has a climate change challenge also if you switch your car from a petrol or diesel driven engine to a to an electric engine you are doing something positive to actually reduce the emissions going into the global atmosphere if you're a farmer that's forced to reduce your herd size so that Ireland can meet its emissions targets you will simply transfer that meat production to somewhere else in the world more than likely outside of the European Union and so we will look good in terms of our figures from a climate change point of view but the global emissions simply gets transferred from one country to another and in many cases from an Irish perspective gets transferred to a country that is less efficient from an emissions point of view so I think we need to create a much more sophisticated and honest debate around the relationship between food production and our obligation as a European Union to increase food output as well as keep price consistency and quality consistency of food production in the European Union and take a responsible approach towards climate change now that being said we can do a lot to reduce the emissions from from food production and we are we have an obligation to do that and R&D and science will put Ireland at the forefront of that challenge and I met this week with the New Zealand Minister for Agriculture and he reflects an awful lot of my views in this area and they are doing a lot of interesting research at the moment in essence how you breed into cattle a reduction in in methane release essentially from the front and back end to be overly specific about it and and they are getting some really interesting results from that so so we can do a lot to actually play our part in reducing emissions from from the food sector but but the first driver here in my view has to be our responsibility as a European Union and as a country towards contributing to actually feeding the world who will need 70% more food in volume terms between now and 2050 and that is the awesome opportunity that this exporting country has in terms of food markets and in terms of expansion so what are we doing about that there's two things really first of all we are lobbying hard to actually create a new debate in terms of the the common agricultural policy agenda and it is more than likely that Ireland will hold the EU presidency for the first half of 2013 when the common agricultural policy review is finalized and that puts us in a very influential position in terms of the context and the direction and the and the end result that that we get from CAP and I think the the start of the real CAP debate began last week when we got an idea as to what the opening position from the European Commission is in terms of the the starting point as regards the percentage of EU budget going towards the the common agricultural policy and the the food and agriculture agenda and I think that that is a reasonable starting point from an Irish perspective it is maintaining the levels of support that are there in actual terms into the future and I think that that is is a reasonable starting point considering where the political debate was six and eight months ago when there were a lot of people lobbying hard for a dramatic reduction in supports for primary primary food food production so we've come a long way and I think over the next 18 months we will continue to travel a further distance to actually reinforce this message that food food production food security is something that needs a support and encouragement within the European Union rather than anything else from an Irish perspective we have in my view a fantastic document and a set of targets that the industry and farmers and government are all working to it's called food harvest 2020 many of you will be very familiar with its detail but essentially this came about by stakeholders in the industry writing a document that is ambitious but realistic in terms of growing the food industry in Ireland and its contribution to the Irish economy over the next 10 years and there is significant government buy into that and it's one of the really good things that the last government did they they facilitated the setting of not only targets but also a roadmap to get us to those targets and it's my job now to to pick up that baton to set targets on a quarterly basis for the implementation group around food harvest 2020 and to continue to drive that agenda amongst all of the players in the food sector not just one element of them and that that project is is about to get its its first-year scorecard written next week or early the week after and I think that people should be quite excited by the results of that we have already upgraded the targets as regards beef and just to give you a flavor what we're talking about here is increasing food production in Ireland by 30% and 33% in volume terms that's a third by 2020 and in value terms increasing the value of Irish food by 40% and they are very realistic targets in the beef sector the targets within food harvest 2020 was for a 20% increase in the output value coming from the beef sector by 2020 we've already achieved a 10% increase an output value of beef in Ireland because of the increase of beef prices over the last 18 months and so we've upgraded that target now to a 40% value output increase by by 2020 and we will look at the other targets as well and change as appropriate but the the underlying story here is one of opportunity for an industry that already has really deep foundations in place for expansion and growth over the last three to four decades the Irish food industry has grown it has built stone upon stone if you like in a very solid way and we have an extraordinary platform and infrastructure now upon which to lean to actually build a really ambitious program of expansion and growth seeking out new markets both within the European Union and further afield in a way that in my view can offer fantastic growth and jobs potential and become the big good news story for the Irish economy I mean 60% of output from indigenous countries in Ireland our companies in Ireland comes from the food sector last year we saw an 11% growth in food exports out of Ireland up to almost 8 billion euros by 2020 we want that figure to be 12 billion to put it really simply Ireland as an island of 6 million people produces enough food for 36 million people by 2020 we want that figure to be 50 million people and when you consider that world population is growing by a million and a half a week at the moment you begin to realize that actually the contribution that we want to make towards feeding the world's population is actually a very modest one even if we meet all of our targets in food harvest 2020 and so the next question you have to ask yourself is well what segment of the market are we actually targeting as a country because Ireland even though we are increasing volumes we're not really in the volume business we're not like countries like you know Brazil and and other countries that have extraordinary volume potential in terms of output Ireland is a little bit different we do need to increase volumes but we also need to insist on maintaining and improving the Irish brand around quality and consistency and safety of Irish food and that in my view will allow us not only to increase the the amount that we're exporting but also to to target a premium sector that can come that can command a premium price and I'm talking about products like baby infant formula that mothers will pay more for because they see an Irish brand on the carton because they associate it with safety and so price isn't the main driver when you're talking about feeding an infant 16% of every of all infant formula consumed in the globe at the moment is produced in Ireland 16% one in every six or seven babies that are drinking from a bottle as we speak are drinking an Irish product because consumers want that product because they associated with quality and consistency something that they can rely on if you look at at a market like China that has a 20% growth rate in demand for infant formula year on year at the moment there is extraordinary potential for Ireland to expand into that market because of the brand that we have there at the moment New Zealand are taking advantage of that but Irish product is in equal demand but it's just not an equal supply and as a result of that and responding to it we see you know a very significant a building project to to increase infant formula just outside of McCroome as we speak at the moment Danone in McCroome produced 35,000 tons of infant formula each year within the next 18 months that'll be over 100,000 tons a year that's good business it's good opportunity for dairy farmers it's more opportunity for milk processors it's more competition for raw product for milk which will potentially drive up the the price which is good from a dairy farmer point of view but is is a challenge in terms of the competitiveness of the price of milk for the industry as a whole but you don't have to look as far as China for demand growth for food if you look at our beef industry which represents our biggest exports in terms of volume and in terms of value within the European Union the biggest importer of beef in the European Union is Germany they import 400,000 tons of beef a year Ireland is the biggest exporter of beef in the European Union last year we only exported 7,000 tons to Germany of their 400,000 tons imported this year we're hoping that that figure will nearly double and there's a reason why that figure is so low it's a hangover from BSE 12 years ago and we are coming out of that shadow now in fact we are out of that shadow and in the sunshine in terms of the reputation around the quality and safety of Irish beef now and we will take advantage of that last week I was in London meeting some Irish food companies there some buyers there and some of the agencies working to market Irish food in London last year we exported 3.6 billion euros of food to the UK we imported 2.7 billion euros of food we have this extraordinary trade relationship around food with the United Kingdom that in my view can be built on and grown this is our closest but also by far our most important and biggest market so the the the issues here are not about will there be demand for the product there is extraordinary demand for what we produce both within the European Union and outside it the demand is almost infinite in countries like India and China and Indonesia and so on as their populations grow as their middle-class populations grow and as as they demand the kind of dietary lifestyle that we have come accustomed to they want what we produce and they will pay for it and they will pay a premium for it if they think that they are buying a premium product and that is the market that we must target as farmers as processors as big food companies that are actually carving out those markets for themselves and taking advantage of them we must instill in every farmer in Ireland that they are producing something for a consumer somewhere else in the world not producing a raw product for a processor down the road so that we instill in everybody this mentality of Ireland being the best at what we do in the food sector and that will contribute to building the brand in a positive way that we rely on to actually forge new opportunities in new markets let's be clear on this 80% of everything we produce in this country from a food point of view needs to find a home outside of Ireland and we need to persuade somebody to pay for it that means that the brand that surrounds our food products is something that we must protect at all costs which means that my department and the agencies that work with us must enforce and encourage standards all of the time and so that is the times inconvenient in terms of the bureaucracy involved the form-filling involved the inspections involved and so on but there is a purpose behind all of that and the purpose is exploiting the opportunities for selling premium product at a premium price in other parts of the world that attach something just a little bit special to what we produce from Ireland and that's happening and that's why Kerry group have grown the way they have that's why other Irish food companies are continuing to grow and expand the way they have and indeed in the in the drinks sector where the the reputation is is around something a little bit different but it's also around quality they are expanding the way they are expanding also and people don't talk about drink very often but I mean if you look at the whiskey market at the moment the fastest growing whiskey brand in Europe in the world at the moment is Jemisin they have double digit growth in 36 different countries as we speak that is the kind of potential that Irish food products and Irish drinks products have if we put the right branding around them and if we give them that the necessary supports to actually make that happen and food harvest 2020 is our template for that development and pathways for growth is the actual business plan to get us there and we have politicians academics business people farmers and every other stakeholder in the food sector involved in that journey with us and so we're all as Irish people would say pulling in the one direction and that is why agriculture and agri food is going to be and is already a good news story for the Irish economy even in the midst of recession that is why it's growing it's employing more people it's creating more wealth than at any stage in the past Irish exports last year were higher in value terms and value terms than at any time during the boom years and so we we need to ensure that that we do everything we can to exploit the sustainable potential of food production in Ireland and I have a challenge in terms of the political challengers around CAP and climate change targets on a whole series of other things you have a challenge also as stakeholders in the food sector to meet the targets that are being set for you in food harvest 2020 whether you're a processor or a farmer and we need to work together in partnership to make the growth potential of the food sector a reality year on year and not just allow a report that has targets set for 2020 to sit on the shelf until then so I look forward to that journey and that challenge with you I am absolutely committed to it I intend on being a champion for the agri food sector as long as I'm in this job and I hope that you will send your comments your criticisms your solutions to remove barriers to to progress as and when they develop because I obviously and this government and this is a team coming straight from the T-shirt we want to hear from people that have solutions so that we can implement them or at least look at the option of implementing them to try and release the potential that is there in so many sectors of the Irish economy that's being frustrated at the moment but from my perspective it's the agri food sector and we are pressing ahead in a very exciting and ambitious way and I hope that that journey will continue because I think the Irish economy needs good news stories like the one that we're providing at the moment so thank you very much for listening


t was several death threats nobody tried to kill you? we had a several series of death threats following so this Brazilian podcast has you saying already suffered an assassination attempt that's been badly translated this is poor translation so we go back and listen to the original please do I encourage you it wouldn't have you saying those words it has me clearly saying that I suffered death threats throughout the process of running for office something along those lines but no assassination attempt one of the more serious allegations against you I felt was that you stole money from a disabled veteran who contacted you to help fund life saving surgery for his service dog this is a man called Richard Osthoff he says that you raised cash on GoFundMe but refused to hand over the money and AP says the FBI is now investigating this what is the truth of this? I've never met this man I've been abundantly clear I feel for him I feel for his story I am as compassionate about helping veterans and animals as the next guy when I read this it just hit me like a bag of bricks because I don't know him and most people who know me who truly know me, Pierce, knows that if he had met me and believed the surgery he wouldn't be homeless the fact that he was homeless and anybody trying to help him wouldn't address the homeless issue was a bigger problem for me and I mean that wholeheartedly so you never set up a GoFundMe page? I've set up dozens of GoFundMe pages no one will find one that relates to this let me make this very clear I've set up numerous GoFundMe pages throughout the years for animals and needs many of them who were not managed by me or managed by other people but because I was the main account holder on the Facebook page it would all go through So you're not denying there could be a GoFundMe page? I'm not denying there could be a GoFundMe page but I'm denying What would happen to that money if there is? Like I said, I'm not denying if there's a GoFundMe page and if they're going to present me with one I'm not going to deny that but I've never met him I've never took on this case and I never took the money from his dog again that we were seeing straight off blink rate up again I mean we've seen his blink rate you know up but for me here it starts to really peak I never met this man well so that's distancing this man is distancing I never met him well that doesn't mean that you don't have links to him or links to the issue you're not denying links to him or links to the issue so for me there's something up here that he's involved in this in some way very maybe very very directly or indirectly but still linked and wanting to deny even any link Greg what do you think of this one? What have you got? Yeah just a few things you've covered most everything I have because he never denies he did it I didn't know him I never met him so what most of these guys are never going to meet redirected higher ground about homelessness instead of talking about no I didn't do this to his dog he goes well if he's homeless and he takes that's another redirect he tries his adapting is increased moving those fidgeting those fingers his chin is down he's turtled and that goiter that vocal sac is back so here we go that's all that looks like deception to me Scott what do you got? yeah shoot you guys covered everything on that one but I will say what I thought was interesting he said he didn't take the money from his dog that I ever took the money from his dog yeah exactly what the hell so that's where I'll chase what you got so right here he immediately gets really nervous his hands are ringing these are pacifying gestures pacifying gestures super strong indicator here then there's eye closure while he's answering he's closing his eyes while making the denial with this extremely strong exhale this really powerful exhale that we have seen nowhere else except for this one here and Mark you're right on the blink rate there I counted it it increased to 65 blinks per minute was the blink rate there and just to give you a little perspective our average blink rate is around 15 give or take so that's a big deal then when he says I've never met this man that's not a denial at all then when he's talking about the go fund me here there's backtracking a loss of fluency and something that I call responsibility shedding so he's shedding off the responsibility somebody else was in charge of that somebody else was doing that it's my bank account he said it was his account that everything was linked to so just just as an example here's what an honest human being might do number one take a look at the account number two maybe talk about how they searched for that page because they were concerned that it might be theirs three deny or completely deny the accusation four care about finding out who did this to the veteran five maybe ask to help that veteran because there's a veteran in need right there six maybe find out who he is and help that person seven take a look to the finances since it's your account as the primary account holder and locate the funds figure out what happened this I don't say this often this is absolute bs and it pissed me off to no end so I looked to this guy up who got screwed over by this guy I contacted him today and just since we've been filming he's texted me he's doing well he's not homeless he had a doctor's appointment today and he is being taken care of and I am personally going to help him get the service dog get a new service dog within the next 60 days so I reached out to him this morning I talked to his dad actually for the first 10 minutes of the call and he's doing well and he said this media attention has really helped him because of this thing that we're doing this video on right now that's all I got one of the more serious allegations against you I felt was that you stole money from a disabled veteran who contacted you to help fund life-saving surgery for his service dog this is a man called Richard Osthoff he says that you raised cash on GoFundMe but refused to hand over the money and AP says the FBI is now investigating this what is the truth of this I've never met this man a lot I've been abundantly clear I feel for him I feel for his story I am as compassionate and as passionate about helping veterans and animals as the next guy when I read this it just hit me like a bag of bricks because I don't know him and most people who know me who truly know me if he had met me his dog would have received the surgery he wouldn't be homeless the fact that he was homeless and anybody trying to help him wouldn't address the homeless issue it's a real problem for me and I mean that wholeheartedly so you never set up a GoFundMe page I've set up dozens of GoFundMe pages no one will find one that relates to this let me make this very clear I've set up numerous GoFundMe pages throughout the years for animals and needs many of them who were not managed by me they were managed by other people but because I was the main account holder on the Facebook page so you're not denying there could be a GoFundMe page I'm not denying there could be a GoFundMe page what would happen to that money if there is like I said I'm not denying if there's a GoFundMe page and if they're going to present me with one I'm not going to deny that but I've never met him I've never took on this case and I never took the money from his dog all right Mark up to this point what have you seen what do you think has happened there's all kinds of levels of lying or telling porkies or telling a whopper as Pierce says I mean you know a lot of creativity is ultimately telling a lie making up something that wasn't there and I think some of his lies that he's are quite frivolous because they only really affect him some of his lies though are not frivolous at all and they are more than bordering into the dangerous and move into very very dodgy territory for me so there's a lot of the behavior that I see there I really don't like the look of this thing I'm going to wrap this up by giving you a quote from Rich the veteran whose dog died because of this person he said this little girl never left my side in 10 years and he said I went through two bouts of seriously considering suicide but thinking about leaving her without me saved my life and then he said I love that dog so much I inhaled her last breaths and it was a great deal so all we're seeing in this video is an internal behavioral profile of Tarek who we profiled on the Dr. Phil show it's self aggrandizing grandiosity seeking this inability to admit fault in an agnostic agnostic addiction to just public attention that is seemingly indifferent as to whether it's positive or negative Greg? and what I've seen is this guy could care less about anybody else and he's simply decorating himself with whatever people need if you give him a checklist tomorrow that said he had a horn on his head he would try to find a way to make it happen this guy is fulfilling a checklist that makes everybody who wants him to be what he is happy so Scott you said earlier the whole forcegump thing it's exactly what he's doing but forcegump was an accident he's been on the right wind and gone the right place and been prepared for it however this guy has not done that he's created the story and he's created details to back him and he's got a pretty interesting story if he's been drag queen this and that but that doesn't qualify you to be a senator or I'm sorry representative if the people are looking for something else so if you took a checklist and you created what people wanted on the ballot that borders on criminal to me my opinion when you say I should be forgiven you should be forgiveness comes all the time when Alec Murdoch said last week whatever if he said I should be forgiven yep and two consecutive life sentences that's the way life works Scott what do you got up to now I've got a really short sentence three words one word repeated run forest run just run I think this is another good one and we'll see you next time


How did he get you?  Oh, dude. Oh, dude. Nice. First place. It's pretty good. How much longer do I have to play, dude? Oh, dude. No, you only need to do one more level after this. I promise. One more level, and then you get to go to heaven. Okay? You got it? Fine. Alright. Cool. Yeah, you're gonna like this one. One million miles more!


There are lots of elements to a good sports story. You can be around it for decades and there's still a possibility that every time you walk into an arena, a stadium or onto a golf course that you will see something that is different from anything you have seen before. Tiger Woods obviously arrives as the story. This is his third surgery on the same knee. Questions remain about how he will perform. At the time, Tiger Woods was the number one player in the world. The other guy is Rockle Mediate and isn't even ranked in the top 100. The world thought I was going to get destroyed. It's more like the guy at Cleans' Tiger swimming pool. And that became the real Dave and Goliath story. Oh, it's crazy with that. The longer it went, the advantage was getting less and less. I actually loved that they thought I couldn't win. Rockle's putting the pressure to Tiger. He knew you were witnessing a dramatic sports event. Rockle could become the oldest champion ever. I'm sure Tiger went, where'd this guy come from?
