That was great. We're at half past, so we'll start off with the next speaker. I want to particularly thank Sasha here for stepping in at the last minute. We had a speaker who was unable to reach Brussels due to some travel issues. And so on two days notice, I'm very, very happy that we have this talk. And I'll let you mostly introduce yourself and the Space Operations Facility at Aachen. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you also very much for getting the opportunity to having this talk. Actually, we should have this talk to people, but my co-mate decided to drive by car because it was not at Aachen and the car got broke. So I have also now to present his thoughts. But we will make the best. So I come from Aachen University. And I set up there with most scholars and bachelor students and a ground station that aims to be like a multipurpose ground station. So most of the operations we perform is hand-based satellite. My first access was not in the space industry or so. I'm a chemist. And in a little project with this pocket cube you see there, my best friend, who we was an informatic guy, wanted to develop this satellite. And then he asked me if I could help with managing all the stuff between the launch provider based in Italy and our little three-man group. And then later I became then responsible for setting up a ground station with basically no knowledge at all. So it was really try to do something in the best with it. And then we had a somewhat successful mission, the brand mission, with this first pocket cube, which was a one-unit pocket cube at that time back in 2013. Later on, because for that mission we had no funding at all, we had a little bit crowd-founding money. So we had everything got into the development and into the launch. But we still needed to test this little satellite. And so we asked many people, and one of those people were the University of F.A. Aachen. And they said, well, OK, since you're the guy, since you are also setting up a ground station, we also have a mission, the Compass2 mission. So we make for you the acceptance test. And you will help us to set up the ground station. And then at that time, without no knowledge, just said, OK, let's do it. And then we did it. And now eight years after that, no, five years after, we have now this team consisting about 21 students. First, we began with seven students. Most of them were freshmen. So also they had no knowledge at all. So they had some ambition to learn something about space technology. And maybe one day, get into space operations, being space operator, something like that. And then came this Compass2 mission. But the satellite never worked, but we trained a lot. And then we decided, OK, now we have the equipment, we have software, most of it open source software. What now? Well, let's do a ground station for others that maybe have the same problem and can find their satellite and so on. OK, so a little bit about the equipment of the space operations facility. So since we have practically no funding at all, we make everything with a lot of creative engagement and by ourselves. So we have a wonderful Yagi array. It's for the 70 centimeter. It's four clockwise polarized 18 cross Yagi elements. Then we have also for the two meter, we have an array of two of those antennas. We have helix antennas, quadrifilhar antennas, lindelblad antennas mostly done, as you can see by our own efforts. Then later, we get the opportunity from another high frequency institute to get full access over the internet to their antenna dish, which is a three meter dish with a log periodic feed. And we operate it with an RTL-SDR. That was the first one. And later on, they get us access to Rode and Schwartz EM100 SDR. So here you see, again, some stuff going on. Since we are located in Aachen, it's a really rainy city with a lot of wind going there. So we constantly have to make maintenance. And OK, our radio equipment. So, of course, we started basically with this one. I don't know how much this cost is still between 50 euros and 80 euros. And with the old equipment from a mission long time ago. And so, which is an ICON-910, which we use for all the satellite communications that are amateur radio-based. But we not only perform communication with satellites in the amateur radio band. For example, do we also track weather satellites? And so the ICON-910 cannot do this because it's below two meters. And for those, we are very, very happy to use these RTL dongles. And now, so it's not true that we get not funded at all. So we got somebody from the Institute which then regarded, oh, there's something going on here with these students. And so let's fund them a little bit. And so now we have this week, just it arrived, a new ICON-9700, which can be completely operated over the overland. And we are very happy about this because our room is located on the second floor. So we have very long cable pathways and which really sucks the radio signal. And in one mission, we realized that I will come later. And so we decided, OK, let's bring everything on top of the roof and then operate everything completely remote. OK, also this teleport is already remote somehow here for this EM100. For example, one capability, we tried once to make a moon reflection from Belgium to the moon and then to us at a distance at that time that was in 2018 of about 800,000 kilometers. And you can clearly see here this peak here. What we also do, we work a lot and we're very, very grateful about this with its operations. So sometimes we shadow track together with them the cluster satellites. Here, for example, you can really see the cluster satellites like a cylinder with one antenna and it's been stabilized. So here you can really see the rotation and you can easily calculate at which rate it rotates. When we are in communication with other teams, for example, the ESA or with other ham radio stations for which we try to get signals from their satellite or also sometimes do uplink, we use Mumble as a communication tool. So and that is our main room. And so actually with a really good computer you could operate all of those software with only one computer. But since we have really old machines, we delocalized every task on different machines. And so that's why we wrote software that transports the protocols, for example, to talk with the HDSDR by the net using the Orbiter on Propagator. But I have some diagrams for this. OK, so since we said, OK, we want to be a multi-mission ground station. So we use a lot of different software, different tools in order to be able to make use of all the protocols needed. And we are also beginning to implement CCSDS. That's why we work strongly together. With ESA, they help us a little bit in order to get things done. We use tool and elements, and now also the CCSDSOM protocol. OK, so in this really short time, we operate this station. We operate it. So when I say operate, that's by mean of uplinking to the satellite in order to command the satellite. We have a good cooperation with Japan. Now ongoing, here we track ESA offset. But we also experiment on that satellite. It's a satellite that allows you to upload an experiment. And then you can somehow play with that experiment. And OK, ESA cluster, this was just a shadow tracking. And this is all done with students that are in their age between 18 to maybe 23, 22, 23. And yeah, so which performs their bachelor thesis at the end. So here you see when there is a lot of action going on. Since we have three teleports, we can really operate all three, all antenna at once. And so you need a lot of people. You can track a weather satellite and also get the signal from the Argo speaker. At the same time, maybe there is the ISS passing and you make some digipeting with that one. So all this is possible. And in order to get the things a little bit structured, since there are 21 people, and we really want to train them to think and to act as an operator, we have also a certification process with a recycling process so that every of them have to perform a minimum of passes per quarter in the year.  And if they do a little bit more, they get an instructor certification so that those guys can then instruct the younger generation and so on. That is so we try to overcome this problem that you always have in universities as a university teacher. You have a fine group of five people that are really brilliant. And then they are finished with their studies. And then it dies completely. So with that, we try a little bit to get a continuity in this thing. So this is basically not really my fault. So I try to read a little bit. But yeah, I can understand. So basically, the operation starts always with a predictor and then through some different protocols, for example, for orbit run that we use extensively, which has this Miley-DEE wrapper, then we go to the different computers for decoding and for antenna control, which routes then to the actual device, which is for the rotor conducts basically just a motor that points the antenna or so-called cat box, which gives the frequency needed to the ICOM receiver or transmitter. Since you have to follow the frequency because satellite signals are subjected to Doppler shift, so you really have to follow this. And this basically for all the teleports that we have. So we have two teleports with rotors. And one teleport just with only directional antenna, quadrifilla antenna. So here you don't need the rotor, but you still need to follow the Doppler shift. So here's a little bit more concrete. So this is the propagator, which calculates the position of the satellite from your point of view. And then it transmits that with this little application. And from there, we design two applications that then transfer those coordinates and the frequencies to the different rigs, but not directly because we use a hemlip as a layer in between. The hemlip is running on a Linux machine. And that is also something we had to learn very painfully because since we are in a university, in the structure of the university, and they make all the time updates, then you come one day and then you see yourself, your software, not working anymore. And so we decided, OK, let's do it in a virtual machine. So at least we have a little bit of room left for changes by the IT. So and then from there, it goes then really to the desired hardware. For the demodulation and decoding, we use for the moment several modems, mostly written from amateur radio guys, I'll give you a packet engine, some older stuff. For example, we use FL-Diggy. There is a Spanish satellite, Fossa-Sat, which is a really tiny satellite, where we use FL-Diggy to let better say, we try to use FL-Diggy because we didn't get a decode of that satellite still. And now really new. So GNU radio is very new to us. So for us, it's still experimental. So this will be the new implementation that is being installed. But maybe because of a lack of knowledge, we are still not able to use it fully. Because so what we aim is, so what we always try is not to just record a signal and then try to decode it afterwards. So we always try to get it decoded as the pass happens. And it works most of the time. But then I have the problem also that the student, when he has his past to perform, then he prefers to use the stuff he knows, because he can set that up without really reading the procedure within 10 minutes. And it's really complicating then to implement also to younger people to implement new stuff like GNU radio. So we are working hard on it to get that done. So here again, so this is then the application that gets from the propagator. For example, here is the frequency stuff. Then this is the SDR radio. Then we have a freeware for the virtual cable from where we get the audio part of the signal. And then he routes that to the modem. And that makes then a connection to a terminal where the information is then stored as a Hex dump. And after then, you can load that information and get data that makes sense to the human. Sometimes it's not so complicating. For example, you have also satellites that have implemented all this. So you maybe don't need the modem because it has the modem already built in. So here is one of our first experiments with GNU radio. Here we try to get it run for Opsat. But what we really want to do is we want to use this one because we have now a new problem that came up. Since one year ago with RTL dongle, we really could easily receive signals in the 70 centimeter band, but now it's so totally full of stuff in there that often, so here was the beacon of Opsat. But then came this big disturbing digital signal. I don't know what it is. And then you can get any decodes. But when we use the ICAM, the conventional transceiver, we can get it very well. For example, using SDR, and this GNU radio application uses directly the SDR. We were able to get it for a really good path because they are good passes and they are not so good passes. A good path is often a path with a high elevation. We get five packets. And if you use the ICAM without anything for a very, very, very bad path, we get at least 33 packets. So that is really a problem. So we really hope that we can get the IF of this new ICAM, get it to work and connected into the GNU radio so that we can really use the full power of the system. So that is for the moment, let's say, the cheap setup that we use for that, as I explained it already. Here you see, but that was with the ICAM, lots of packets for a path with an elevation of below 30 degrees. What still really works well with the cheap SDR radio dongle is a weather satellite on the sub-2-meter band because that's obviously not in the amateur radio band anymore. It's below that 2-meter amateur radio band. So here, even if it's a low elevation because we have this strong antenna, we really can get weather satellite images from one horizon to the other horizon. So it starts at about 3 degrees to 4 degrees elevation right then to the other 3 degrees to 4 degrees. So we get really an image from you have parts of Africa and you can also have parts of the green and ice sheets all in one image, which is really awesome. So for the uplinking, that's a little bit the same thing. For the moment, we use this easy term and then we go again via sound modem and we hope that also here one day we will be able to fully use GNU radio because we really want to get rid of all these stuff where you have different modems that you have to use and to fully enjoy Daniel Estevez here satellites because we think that that would make our life a lot more easier at the end. Maybe with a lot of forward work, but then once the system would then run, I think it would get a lot more easy. So this, for example, was using the IECOM, was an SSTV image that we, I think this one was not yesterday, but on Friday. So we get really high quality images with our antenna set up. And that is then with the SDR. So you really see that's the same path, almost the same elevation. And you really see a big difference. What we also really like to do is we follow the Soyuz. And we are very lucky because Soyuz only communicates in that region. And for the rest, they don't talk at all. So as soon as they can physically have a connection with soup in Moscow, they start talking, talking, talking, talking, talking, talking all the time. It's very, very interesting, all in Russian, but it's really amazing for young students to hear the commander in Russian speak to mission control Moscow. OK, here that was the first time where we really got aware about the problem that we are sitting in the second floor and our antennas are on the fifth floor.  We got one or two beacons after weeks of work. And then we discovered WebSDR, a really wonderful tool. So that's a receiver you just log on via the internet. Then you connect your modem. And you finally can understand the signals coming from that tiny satellite that orbited around the moon. And then because we really tried to get it also by our own, I discovered also this nice sheet from Daniel Estavez. And I got the idea, oh my god, maybe if we really point, it said that it does not make the difference, but maybe a small difference could change the game. So then I took the book of David Valado with the students. We implemented inside of GMAT then a function that calculates because GMAT cannot do that. That's an orbital simulation. But we needed to get the estimate and elevation to point the antenna. And so we used this algorithm from that book. And then we wrote a program. So then GMAT then writes down a file with all the positions. So we took the state vectors then from the Chinese guy from the University of Harbin, or was it your? You also added it on your GitHub, no? And then we, so this program just read it, read it that, OK, time this up.


We are alive. Okay, you guys we're going live via cell phone Because we're gonna have to move around a bit cool cool Cool cool Just Uh-huh Hey guys, right Debbie So this is kind of I'm trying to step on Bowie the background of this one. It's not the cutest So this is not the most exciting looking tumbler But I used the splatter technique a lot of people are using it. I did not come up with it But I think the look is so just exciting. I don't know why I just do Show you how it's done. It's gonna be a super quick live Just working on a piece. I'm running over to a friend's house tonight. I got stuff to do What do you guys think about this glitter before I move on? Isn't it gorgeous? It's my new favorite glitter That has color See the chameleon-iness I'm gonna just say that that's a word. I Think six of these left in stock This is what it is it's by color passion. It's called Mermaid dreams chunky out beautiful. So yeah, I have six of these left on the website If you want to grab some before I run out and Take part in the sale that's going on. Yeah. Yeah, okay So I I'll call into this I think the other day I'm alive with you guys and I just coated it with UV archival in two coats Rustilium clear spray paint I'm gonna assume that is Good enough to protect my ink from This this is Dawn power wash a lot of people use dawn to do the peek-a-boo stuff But if you get the power wash It spits out suds That sticks pretty well, so you don't have to worry about it Flipping because it's a rounded surface you could probably use Strupping bubbles because it's what it reminds me of But I haven't tried that so I don't know so You just pull this little trigger and it spits out Bubbles okay, I'm gonna you can't see them because it's on BAM bubble sputter Thank you, man. Hey, what's that tg? Ida Denise Everyone Okay So we're just gonna go for it and help me make a cool design. All right. I guess it's just Soaps we could wash it off if we don't like it So you have to keep in mind that everywhere that isn't bubble covered Will be black Because that's the other sports ain't that I'm using So I'm trying to get a good amount of coverage So I'm standing a little further back right now just to get the dots without the big paintball looking splatters Okay, I think we got it. So now we got to move kind of quick and I am way unprepared You get some blacks I think it's starting to turn black because of all the peek-a-boo's I've done since discovering this So I'm trying to really Blacken the background around my splatters Look how well that soap is pulling out like the first time I tried it. I was like, okay This is about to get real sketchy. It's gonna move.  Okay, cool Let's just undo this Let's go for a walk you guys Look out bubbo How fun is this about to be? Okay, y'all have a clean sink. Isn't it crazy? Okay, I swear I could just do that kind of stuff all of the day every day I know I do have a clean sink right now. It's absurd my only grievance with this kind of Technique I suppose is that because it's just splatters of bubbles a little bit of the Black kind of peppers, but I'm gonna see if we can wipe some of that off But this is such an interesting look as opposed to just the stripes of dish soap, you know So let's see if we can get some of that Peppery over spray off You're jealous you've been baking all weekend. I'm jealous cuz I don't really know how to bake So kudos to you, ma'am All right See if we can This is probably gonna be sorry Outside doing it breakfast. They can see you. I do they drove by They knew what they were doing. I know I don't know if this is gonna like Start wiping off my inks, but I'm gonna give it a shot I'm just using something It's the black it's coming off. I'm just using 90 proof rubbing alcohol. I feel like maybe if I shook the Can a little bit and none of the inks coming off. So we got it really sealed in pretty well. That's cool Make me some cookies. Also, what's up Sam?  I feel like that would just take forever But it's not impossible If I had shaken it maybe it would be More said to you Maybe I'm gonna try that The scrubbing bubbles. I feel like that might be a good Just got the whole commercial down But that's what they say Fun that it's not taking off any of my ink colors.  I may go in later with a q-tip and try to get those little more intricate bits I just wanted to show you guys The awesome that can be achieved by using the power wash. Look how fun that is. I can't even I Can't even handle it. It's so unique Blown away by how that looks. It's super fun I wasn't gonna go ahead and resin this with you guys, but I'm going to not do that So that I can something Okay, so that I can go through and Touch up that little over spray bits So I guess maybe I'll just resin this guy because I need to get some resin on something My Christmas started out Apparently you can see it now You guys checked out the Christmas star? I haven't I can't see it What Christmas star? It looks like it's No more, but we're not Too many lights City problems All right, I'm gonna use countertop for this because it sets up quicker than art coat Megan and the Darth Vader's are in another box. They're already in the mail headed to you I noticed that I forgot them right after I sent them So this is a what size tumbler did you say this was? This is a 16 ounce tumbler and one ounce of resin is like perfect for it So it's slightly bigger than a regular standard wine glass Just slightly you can't get over how pretty this sparkle is. It's so different So how was y'all's day? Did you do anything fun? Did you do anything interesting? Share tell me what you did. I need to know Also, where are you watching from? TG you arted all day. What did you art? I went to the bank. Hopefully it was for a good cause I hear so many things about animal crossing I don't even know how long I've been steering but I don't feel like it's been three minutes I can't wait to see how this looks under resin I had a couple of years too.  I haven't had any beers yet, but I'll probably have a glass of wine tonight Oh, I forgot to tell you guys. I'm Erica Jeff's over there working on another piece where artists till death We would love for you to subscribe if you like what you see And uh, we art every day for your pleasure For your convenience It's a beautiful day in Queensland, Shelly. That's so awesome. It's pretty great here, too I'm gonna get some non-alcoholic beer for Christmas desperate times Right We need way more thumbs thanking this Ida Hi Trisha Okay, there's no Cute way to add resin to a tumblr. I've decided you just kind of have to slather Slather and go I haven't done that much research on it. Have you guys found a cute way to add resin without it? No Horrible I don't know. I was wasted A lot of resin on that That move All right, so pro tip when you're adding resin do it on the front side of however way it's spinning So if it's spinning away from you pour it Closest to you. I don't even know why I'm bothering with this stick I'm just gonna end up doing this anyways I think I try to be fancy for you guys at home. I think that's what that was How thick do you make the resin on the tumblr? So I feel like you don't want it too thick because we have it taped off here for the lip area So you don't want it to get too thick so that there isn't too much of that separation but I feel like most tumblers take a couple coats of resin To get them As smooth as possible If this stays like it's laying right now It'll only take one layer also depends how warm it is where you're at and The thickness of your resin If you have glitter a lot of times you have to pour thicker to make sure you cover all of the Texture that glitter sometimes leaves But when I added the glitter to this one I Use the spray adhesive. I added the glitter and then I rolled it On a piece of paper To get it as stuck down as possible and then Jeff kind of dusted off the excess So that worked out really well I think you would need to keep it moving till the resin sets up. Otherwise it'll droop but Most tumblers are made such that The motor is made to go For an extended like hours And I'm using countertop coat on this one so that It'll set it quicker than my art coat and it'll still be super durable I'm just trying to pop some of the bubbles without introducing too much heat When you start adding heat something that I learned Is to just start adding the heat at like a marked location for me. I like to start it Where the tab is for me to pull the tape off So that I know when a full rotation has gone around Because sometimes you get lost in the design or whatever And you add too much heat because you just keep going because you have no idea where you started But if you start at your tab Then you know where to stop I will probably come back and hit it with heat again in a couple hours just to make sure And I'll probably pull the tape in that time as well To know when you need to pull your tape I just put You're gonna have some drips that fall off So I take a star stick or my glove and just put my finger in it and wait till I can stretch it for like an inch or two In my fingers and then you know, it's Gummy enough to pull the tape without it blobbing onto your lip area Thank you, Vance. Sorry. That's um An air compressor So I used all the resin. It was perfect. I think I have The surface area of a dime left in the cup. I may be biased. It's true. I may be biased It's whatever but I think it looks awesome. I'm gonna get you guys down for a close-up I'm gonna save these gloves waste not want not better You can Susan if you have craft coat just Use it and then clear coat it with art coat It'll be good to go 36 Christmas presents Debbie you have been busy I think homemade Christmas presents are oftentimes the best Christmas presents I don't have a light. I feel like that light made Oh, yeah, the thing about silicone anything is um It attracts hair And that's always a problem for me because I have so many little fuzzy butts in my house So you can try the silicone gloves But just keep in mind if you have anything fuzzy any animals That it may not be the best idea That's not to say don't get them. That's just look out for that Hey Clara Enable subtitles so I can understand everything you say. Thanks. Oh, I thought they were enabled Enable flash. Oh, I have a flat. I can turn my flash on here sweet I don't know how to turn on subtitles in the moment, but I will add subtitles It's a mermaid. It is a mermaid Rumble don't snort this glitter I mean, I guess you can Anyways, you guys, I hope you enjoyed it. Sorry. It was so short. We got stuff to do but loving this Love love love this This look I hope you all try it if you do make sure you tag us post it in atd's poor people So I can see what you're up to You'd have sparkly boogers. I mean if you're gonna have boogers, you may as well have sparkly ones Um, and we will see you guys Tomorrow Maybe super super earlier Super super late because we got a lot of stuff to do tomorrow, but we'll see you guys tomorrow Uh be kind of one another you never know what someone's going through Be anything you want to say Nothing you want them to not forget So you don't I think my voice shook it. I didn't do it Anyways, let's see you guys tomorrow. Bye Belly. Bye. Yep


Hello, this is Hamz-A-Rin for The Sinai, watching Islamabad today on Think Tech Hawaii. Today, we're gonna be speaking about the drama industry, the scripts, the drama actors, the lighting, the cameraman, and what it actually takes to produce a wonderful drama that has an everlasting impact on the society. I have one of Pakistan's leading directors and actors with me, and we're gonna be discussing with him what it actually takes to make sure that an absolute fantastic drama can actually come onto the scene and have an everlasting impact on the public. We can't just focus on drama, and I mean, I remember when I was growing up, we had Pakistan television, PTV, and they used to show such amazing dramas. Ashfaq Ahmed Sahib used to write, Bhanu Kutse used to write, Asin Mohan used to write. And the scripts were so good. There were different kinds of shows. There were, I mean, shows for children, there were shows for older people, there were shows for people who like comedy. And now I feel that we don't have that. We just have one, one kind of genre that is being catered to everybody. There's nothing on television for children. There's no comedy shows. Like, I mean, it's just something that I feel like, there's a lot that can be done. So when you talk about shortcomings, I mean, where do you think the solution lies? How are you gonna rectify it? Again, I mean, it's not up to me, but I feel like we, as an industry, need to step outside a comfort zone. And we need to kind of start, I mean, start, I feel start producing content that's, you know, that's more responsible, I feel. Okay, okay. So Mr. Osman, in 2022, you released Hulaburani, which is a horror short film that won the best short film award at the 2002 Los Angeles, you know, science fiction and horror festival. So tell us, when you talk about Hulaburani in general, tell us about what it's all about. I mean, you know, in terms of the content, the story, the significance of the story. Well, I mean, I was, I remember back in 2004, 2005, a couple of us friends were sitting and we used to love telling horror stories. And they were really fascinated by, you know, haunted houses in the country. And, you know, one of my friends kind of told us a story about this university and it was really intriguing. And I was like, you know, I'd love to, like I want to see this as a film. But at that point, I mean, there's like, we weren't making a lot of movies in Pakistan. So I mean, at that point, I felt like, you know, I shouldn't make it, but I didn't, and that story kind of stuck by me. It kind of took me about, I think more than a decade to kind of, you know, and it wasn't me actually.  Why don't you direct? And I said, you know, it's just too much effort. It's just, you know, I'm acting, I'm earning money. I need to, you know, you have to take some time off and you don't know if you're going to get any returns or anything like that. She's like, but that's what you love doing. I mean, at least you will be happy. And I was like, yeah, I really want to make this short.  And she's the one who actually pushed me to kind of start working on the film. And then we got like other people involved, actors involved, my partner at the time, who started the production company with me. He was there and we started this, we start the process of kind of pre-production and getting script written and everything. And at that point, we had no idea that we would send it to festivals or, you know, we just wanted to finish the film.  People came, a lot of friends came, a lot of people who we didn't know came. And a lot of people came up to me and said, you know, you really need to send this to festivals. We were actually supposed to release the film a day after the screening online. But then they said send it to festivals and everything. So we were like, okay, great. I talked to everybody and then they were all on board. We just started submitting the film. I had no hopes because it's a horror film. I don't think like horror as a genre is, you know, could be like, you know, people would kind of, it can't be like one of those critically acclaimed, and then suddenly we started getting these notifications, your film's been selected, your film's won this award, your film's won that award.  And so what about the domestic response to the movie? I mean, it was almost as if, you know, you said that it was an idea that just came out of the blue. And suddenly, you know, everybody's starting to watch it. That basically means that it must have been popular enough for people to recommend that it should be sent to festivals, right? Well, I mean, so we had like about, I think, 250 people that came that day to watch the film. Okay. In that cinema, I mean, so this is the thing. Every time I make something, I make a short something, whenever there's a screening, I'm very, very nervous. I don't know why. I can't sit, I was standing at the back and, you know, I was just hearing people and their reaction and what parts would they react to and what parts they wouldn't.  They reacted to this, which is something that I didn't expect, you know? Right, right. So I was standing there and I was really nervous but it was overwhelming how we got to standing ovation. You know, people would really like the film and I mean, I can't be more thankful to my team. You know, they've done such an amazing job and they did, they worked really hard. I mean, you know, when you're working on a short film that's a low budget film, you don't have a lot of money.  It's a bit, it's a little more difficult for the crew and everybody because, you know, you probably have to work overtime because you don't have budget to shoot the next day. Right. And they were amazing. My entire team, honestly speaking and I'm so happy that I have this team to, you know, bad to work with and I want to do more stuff with them, inshallah, hopefully. Excellent, excellent. Yeah, hopefully. Tell us a little bit about Sinfey Ahan.  I, when I was a kid, I wanted to go to the army. Actually, I wanted to go to the air force. So I, when I got that opportunity to play captain Daniel, I was like, I'm gonna jump onto the opportunity and do this. So yeah, I mean, it was an interesting experience. It was, you know, I've never seen so many actors on a set together. We had to shoot this scene, which was in Abtabad, outside PMA and, you know, it was the, I think the orientation of all the girls and their parents had come and their relatives had come to kind of see them off. So that day it was just, everybody was there and it was just, it was a very interesting experience. But we had a lot of fun, yeah. That's great, that's great. So what about the contents of the entire drama? I mean, what is the, what can be considered to be the major takeaways or what is it about that really inspires people to watch it? It'll inspire a lot of girls to kind of, because, you know, in our households, it's just, I think it's the patriarchal mindset. I don't know what it is.  Why not? Right. I've seen so many girls, like, I love doing MMA and the amount of girls that come there and they're so good at what they do, they can take on so many guys, you know? So, I mean, I don't understand, like that's one thing that will change for a lot of young girls who want to go to the army and they think it's impossible for us to go to the army. It's for the boys. No, it's not. And it will encourage a lot of young girls to kind of take that step and talk to their parents that I've decided I don't want to be an engineer. I don't want to be a doctor. I want to go into the army, you know? And when so many people watch that drama, they're like, oh, yeah, we saw that drama and there were four girls who, you know, I feel like dramas and medium films, they impact you on a daily, on a daily base. Like, there are little things that you see and you can normalize them, which is also dangerous. That's why I, media and our dramas have to be more responsible, you know? So I feel like it will encourage a lot of young girls to take that step. And, you know, that's amazing. Yeah, well, we've recently seen that in all three of the forces you have increased amount of female participation. We're talking about the Navy, we're talking about the military, we're also talking about the Air Force here in Pakistan. So do you think that, you know, such dramas would ensure that the current progress would actually be taken to a different level altogether where you would actually have gender parity in such organizations, especially an organization because in Pakistan, the army is considered to be extremely, you know, it's an extremely important organization. It's an organization which exhibits a lot of political clout. So when you have gender parity in such organizations, that would increase, you could say, its traction. So do you think that, you know, serials such as Senfé Aya would result in that sort of gender parity? Senfé Aya would result in that sort of gender parity taking place in the, you know, foreseeable future? I hope so. I hope so. I think more girls should, if they want to, they should do that, they should, whatever they want to do, they should be able to do that. They should be able to make that decision to themselves, you know? Okay. All right, so let's come to South Asia in general. And obviously you have India, which has a larger economy, it has a larger drama industry and also larger film industry. But in terms of the quality of dramas, I think Pakistan does take the lead because we've seen that the reviews of Pakistani dramas are far more superior as compared to the Indians. Obviously the Indians take the cake as far as, you know, movies are concerned. So when we talk about Pakistani dramas and if you compare them with Indians, where do you think, you know, is the, or the decisive factors which ensure the Pakistani dramas get better reviews than the Indian ones? I feel it's the direction that their dramas, I feel like we are also, we have also now started producing dramas that can, you know, you can kind of mistake, like you can kind of think it's an Indian drama because with the music and the way they direct their dramas, they dramatize their content so much that the audience can't relate to it. Okay. You know, when you make something that has like, you know, sound effects of like thunder and drums and, you know, you're showing a clip again and again and just for the shock factor, you, I think the audience can relate to that. And I feel general direction, like it's just so far from reality, some of their dramas. But, you know, our dramas, bad, at least used to be very, very good. And they used to be, you know, your audience could relate to them.  Kuch Ankahi has Sajal in it and it has Bilal in it. And that drama, I feel like it kind of reminds you of the BTV era, it's very nice. I mean, the simplicity of our dramas, I feel is what makes it more relatable to the audience. So we're talking about simplicity of dramas. I mean, do you think the script writers in on both sides of the border, especially particularly in Pakistan, are they actually given the due credit that they deserve? I think yes. Okay. I think as actors, when we're pitched a drama, the first two or three questions are, who's it written by, who's directing it? And then I'd like to read the script or whatever. So I think with script writers, some of the script writers have made a really big name for themselves in the drama industry. Okay. But do you think there needs to be more publicity as script writers as compared to maybe actors for that matter? Because what normally happens with smile? I think there needs to be publicity. Firstly, and this is something that I really believe in. I think there needs to be publicity. We need to appreciate all the crew members. We don't, a lot of people don't realize this. Your entire ENG crew arrives, at least an hour and a half before you arrive on set. They're the ones that leave at the very end. You've left. Everybody else has left.  They have to put it back in the van. And then they have to go back. They get lesser amount of sleep. They have to wake up early. So I think they really need to be appreciated are the people, the makeup artists, the script writers, the people behind the scenes really need to be appreciated. We only, even though I'm an actor, but I feel like we only appreciate actors. We don't appreciate anybody else. And especially the ENG crew. I mean, I know, I work as a director as well and I know how hard they work. So I feel that they need to be appreciated. Okay. So I mean, obviously I do believe that comparisons are odious. You don't need to compare apples with oranges. India is a different country with a different dynamic altogether. But do you see any sort of, I mean, lots of Pakistani actors have gone and worked in Indian movies and they've worked in the Indian industry. Given the current situation, I mean, you have two nuclear powers which are always on the brink of war. I mean, it might not necessarily be a nuclear war, but it could be a conventional war for that matter. Is there any possibility of drama actors going and working in the Indian industry or vice versa? Or do you think that the climate is just way too hostile for that to happen right now? I mean, right now I don't see it happening. But who knows about the future, but right now it's, I think it's a bit difficult for that to happen. So I just don't feel like right now is a good time. I think the respect needs to be mutual. It needs to be from both ways. So yeah, I feel like if that happens, if we're given respect, we will give respect. And I think then it could probably happen, but I don't see that happening right now. All right, so let me just narrow the question down at a personal level. Do you foresee yourself working in Indian movies or Indian drama in the future? So you basically believe it has to be Pakistan or if there's any other outlet, it has to be in the American industry, which continues to be the most dominant industry in the world. I don't, again, I feel like you need to be able to, I mean, I don't see myself working over there. I don't think they'll ever offer me anything, but I don't think I'll probably be doing that. I can't really say for sure, Reswan, because anything can happen at any point in time. It could, it could, definitely. But I mean, see the thing is again, my thing is respect is both ways. If you give respect, get respect. It's that simple. And if that happens for sure, but I mean, it has to be, it has to be a mutual thing. You can't, you know, and it goes in every, in any relationship, if you're not getting respect or if you're getting whatever, like if you're not getting respect and you still want to kind of be associated, I mean, that's just, I feel like it doesn't set well with me, I don't know. Yeah, well, it's understandable. And I think a lot of Pakistani actors or Indian actors for that matter do share that sentiment. I mean, it goes both ways. So one notable trend in the drama industry is the influx of Turkish dramas within Pakistan. I mean, they're getting more screen time. We've seen that Turkish dramas, for example, Arturul, correct me if I'm pronouncing it incorrectly, but you know, Arturul for that matter, or you can talk about, you know, there's so many other Turkish dramas. For that trend, do you think that trend is a healthy one? It promotes greater bilateral cooperation or bilateral goodwill between the drama industries? Or do you think that the influx of Turkish dramas are threatening the viewership of indigenous Pakistani dramas? No, I don't think that's, it's threatening anything. I think they're making better content. Their stories are better. Their cinematography is better. Their score is better. Their sound is better. Their, you know, everything is, everything gels together really well and it's at the end of the day, it's a good product. Now, you can't stop people liking a good product. That's, I just don't understand that. So if it's coming to Pakistan and people are liking it, I'm nobody, nobody should be able to say that this shouldn't play on TV, why? I mean, it's a good show. Why would you want to stop? Exactly. Why would you want to stop people from watching a good show? If they like it, they like it. Okay. So Osman, actors and actresses have been pretty vocal about the political situation in the country as well. I mean, obviously, I don't get involved in politics. Oh, you don't get involved in politics as all, but you do pray for a more peaceful, prosperous, and you could say, yeah, you do, you do for that matter. So every Pakistani does. So lastly, if we come towards the message that you want to give young aspiring actors trying to make a mark in the field, what would that be? Because there are lots of actors who actually tap the doors of the Pakistani drama industry. They might be very talented, but certain roadblocks actually come. I'm not going to get into the nepotism debate. We've already had that with many actors before, but what would be the message from your side to young aspiring actors who want to make a mark in the drama industry? My advice is be patient. If you're working hard, if you're giving it everything, be patient. A lot of actors I come across, they go like, oh, we've struggled for a year or two years, and now we got any more. I feel like the patience has kind of come. Like it took me 12 years. There's so many other actors who've worked really hard to get where they are. So I feel like the patience is lacking. I might be wrong. There might be a lot of young actors who are really struggling hard. Osama, for example, the kid who was in our short, Gulabo, he's worked really hard, and I've seen him, and I've heard about his struggle as well. But there's some kids I've also seen who get really let down by not getting the opportunities in a couple of years, and they're like, oh, we don't want to do this. We'll do something else. I mean, if this is what you want to do, I know it's difficult, but give some time to it, give it a bit of time, and I'm pretty sure it'll happen. And also, just don't lose hope. This is very important, because a lot of kids go like, oh, I don't want to now act and everything, and they're really good actors. Why? Why do you want to waste this talent? Just be a bit more patient.  And do you think there needs to be a more enhanced culture of auditioning in Pakistan, where you're from the general public? Casting couch, if anybody's calling you, if any director says, come here, no, audition, yes. No casting, I just don't understand. And also, I see very few people doing auditions. That is also, I think, one thing that I feel like more companies need to do auditions for young actors regularly. Okay, so why do you think that's the case? Why don't people audition for young talent? Again, I don't know. Honestly, I'm very far away from the industry. I live in Islamabad. I do my bit and then I come back and I like to be around my family and everything. So I don't know exactly how things work, but I do feel like more production houses and more they need to audition. They need to have auditions, have these pamphlets and kind of spread them across social media that these auditions are happening and young actors were interested. Please email, submit your application and then. Go ahead, Osmar Mukhtar. Thank you so much for joining me on the show. Thank you, thank you, thank you Hamza.

Okay, drum again. Okay, we're delighted to interview old friends who are a company that are doing a form of energy harvesting that's totally original and new. It's called Wit Energy and Mary Wicket who's a founder. That's correct, that's correct. In the very beginning and she perhaps can tell us a little bit about how things have changed in the last year. How the project is progressing. Okay, basically the Wit is a unique solution that harvests all natural occurring emotional energy and turns it into electrical power. Which can be stored and you can call upon it when you need it. The diversity of the Wit. How we progress. The diversity of the Wit is that now we're now showing how it can be used in dragonflies as in wind. We can show it in subsea oil, the subsea oil in gas and ocean studies. We've extended our team. We've now got Admiral Sir James Burnall Nugent as our chairman. We have a new CEO with 35 years in manufacturing background. And basically he knows exactly what to do to bring the products to the market. And the market is enormous from very small to large. This here gives you an example of developing countries on a backpack or it can be on a bull cart. So you're taking the natural energy that's happening from rough terrain and actually taking all of that energy and giving them a power solution. What are we seeing here? This is an example of subsea. Now subsea for subsea oil and gas sensors but also the actual studies in our ocean has become more and more of concern. We want to know what's happening. We want to know where mammals are actually moving from and to. We want to know about security. We want to know about ocean temperatures. We want to do understanding what's actually happening. And we can do that now by having what we call a stalling wing. Sorry, it's called a stalling wing. And basically the stalling wing will harvest energy from emotional water. So that could be used in air or water or is it specifically water? Specifically for subsea. When we're looking at applications on the air we've designed an unstable shape called the dragonfly which actually moves constantly presents a surface to the wind. So in all these applications you're harvesting six degrees of energy? That's correct. You've got rotational motion in three dimensions and linear motion in three dimensions. And the swinging weight is a part of the function of the device? It is a part of the function of the device in most of the embodiments. Certainly within the potential wind application we would move away from a swinging weight. We would look at having simple sails to produce the effect of the motion. And if it was such a change for the business, start-up business obviously as you learn what's wanted, what's out there and all the rest. But what is at the moment, what do you think could be the biggest income for you through partners or directly in ten years from now? Is it in water? I think what's actually happened is the business has grown. We've become very aware that we have very strong IP but we would like to find partners that want to manufacture or buy a licence. And the licence will be specific to say for a dismounted soldier they would be able to buy the licence to fit in a backpack. The applications that we're targeting at the moment are both marine and for the personal device, for the backpack or the enthusiast walker. We see these as quite large markets but as you know with a start-up your direction can change. So that would be a watt, a few watts. That would be five watts on the back of that unit and we would be looking at 15 watts and upwards for a small marine device. Right, and you were thinking about dingus and things weren't you? Yes, I think there's still lots of things for safety at sea. What we need to do is find a company that has a problem and is needing a power solution. Together we can bring the technology as an R&D company. They can buy the licence and then we can get the technology out there. I've always thought it would marry up very well with a lot of other harvesting technologies like we've just had a talk in the conference by Twingtek on the airborne wind energy flying drones. They can do that from a violently moving platform at sea and in the platform could be your device and they would have the wind power. We met this gentleman at the World Future Energy Summit. We won a place in Abu Dhabi and he was there as well. We've got three more talks coming now on airborne wind energy. It's just one thing we're focusing on this year. So yes, that's extremely interesting. So it could be that someone would be making a basic module even that gets used in different applications? That could happen. I think what we need to do is find we are already in discussions with very large companies. But the actual fact is we will have our CEO and our Chairman, Admiral Sir James, actually in negotiations with the larger companies. That would be great. I mean, when it's on a backpack you'd worry about the weight, would you? I mean, how does the weight compare with a battery? I realise this works better with a battery. Well, in the defence sector, Peter, that's 11 kilos that soldiers carry now. We can reduce it from 11 kilos of battery to one kilo of battery. Wow, yeah. So very often energy harvesting is more heavy but that's much less heavy. That's a big dramatic difference and it means also the other advantage is the soldier is in charge of his power needs. If he needs more power, he runs a bit faster. Yes, that's right. So he actually, in the remotest of locations, if he has to communicate with someone and he's low on batteries, he can run up and down a job and he can take it about. Absolutely. Even if he was on a vehicle, the vehicle shaking would do it. So he wouldn't need to do anything. That's really interesting. Yes, it's wonderful. So how many of you are there now? Oh, we've got 10 or 11 of us in the team. So we've got a head of manufacturing. We've got a head of electronics. We've got a project manager. We have financials. Yeah, we've built the team up. That's wonderful. Only one thing you haven't done and that is you haven't learned to dev an accent. Nope. That isn't going to happen, Peter. It's not going to happen. She's not even trying. That's wonderful. Well, thanks very much. Let's get back and share a session. Thank you very much. See you again.


What's good y'all Chris from jasky's case breaks calm doing 2023 Panini black football hobby six box half-case pyt Number seven what a 17 team R&B?

I always get a little disturbed looking at this picture because it looks like my little small, blondie boys, but that's okay because if I could look inside their heads, I actually would as long as I didn't have to chop their head in half. All right, so take a look at this location. Anatomy students should definitely be aware, what is this structure right here embedded down in the sphenoid bone of the skull? That would be the seletursica of the sphenoid bone, and it's a pituitary gland. And so you can see here, this is sphenoid bone, and you can see that this pituitary gland is nestled down inside that part of the sphenoid bone. If you take the bigger picture, here's pituitary, nicely protected, very important. I have pituitary and hypothalamus split into two sections, but really it's really hard to talk about them separately because they are so intimately connected in structure and function. Superior to the pituitary gland and literally connected to it is the hypothalamus. You can see that this space up here, this area, this is my hypothalamus. And if you take a look at this, it's really significant because the hypothalamus literally reaches down. Doesn't it look like that is hypothalamus that's reaching down into the pituitary gland? And that's not on accident. The pituitary gland has two parts, and the anterior part is endocrine tissue. The posterior part is actually neural tissue. It's actually brain. It's an extension of the hypothalamus. And that structural feature is going to be very significant when we look at the function of these two structures. So the hypothalamus, it's basically considered like the mama, no. The master of all homeostatic responses. The hypothalamus controls the whole thing. And in fact, before we can talk about specific interactions between the hypothalamus and the pituitary and the distinctions between ant pit over here, this is ant pit, and post pit back here, we have to have a little bit more anatomy. This, I don't know, those of you who've had anatomy know that portal systems, I find portal systems fascinating. Portal systems are two adjoining capillary beds. And we're going to talk about portal systems because I just can't help it. Most of the time, in the circulatory system, and relax, don't freak out, this is definitely just diagrammatic and just for illustrational purposes. Most of the time, we have one capillary bed.   So you've got all these capillary beds where exchange happens.  The heart sends them to the lungs. We have capillaries in our lungs. Now we have gas exchange occur there and we get new fresh blood to send to the body. There is no reason to have two capillary beds in sequence because capillary beds are where you get dirty blood. In anatomy, we talked about the hepatic portal system and that was a place where you did see two capillary beds in sequence where all the capillary beds surrounding the digestive tract took all that oxygen-poor but nutrient-rich blood to the liver. And the liver in another capillary bed sorted through the nutrients and made sure that there was nothing poisonous there before dumping all that nutrient-rich blood from the outside world in your intestines into the regular circulation. To me, I look at that portal system and I go, brilliant, what a great idea. Let's have two capillary beds in sequence so that we can filter out the blood. Well, the hepatic, I mean the portal system that exists between the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland is a different kind of portal system. But in this one, this is going to be important because you look at how the hypothalamus communicates with the pituitary gland. And can you see here? I have a capillary bed from the hypothalamus and I have another capillary bed where? With ant pit. So the anterior pituitary actually has its own additional capillary bed. Why? Why would you do this? Well, here's the deal. The hypothalamus produces releasing hormones and there are, I believe, six of them because there are six hormones produced in anterior pituitary. The hypothalamus dumps releasing hormones into this portal system. What?  And then they go, let's not stay in a capillary bed till we get to ant pit because we can certainly go faster if our vessels get a little bit bigger. So we'll get them a little bit bigger and then we'll branch out again into another capillary bed where now we're going to deliver the hormones to ant pit. The message when those hormones come, the message is you got to release some different hormone out into the bloodstream, out into the general population. In this way, the hypothalamus is able to control the hormones produced or released by ant pit. The hypothalamus is also tightly related to the posterior pituitary gland and that one, dude, this is fantastic. Neurons in the hypothalamus literally pass all the way down into the posterior pituitary and essentially the hormones produced in posterior pituitary actually are made in the hypothalamus and are just stored in post pit. And post pit from a message, no, upon a message from the hypothalamus will release the hormone into the general bloodstream. There isn't a portal system between the hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary. You'll see that that's not necessary. There isn't a releasing hormone for the hormones produced in the posterior pituitary. I guess we've talked about hypothalamus and our pituitaries and how they are unique and different from each other and now in the next section, I'm going to talk about all the different hormones that we're dealing with here.

We will now look at the equilibrium between a cobalt water complex ion, which is pink, and a cobalt chloride complex ion, which is blue. We'll start with two test tubes with the cobalt water complex ion. We add 12 molar hydrochloric acid to one of the tubes. We notice that the solution turns blue. This indicates that the equilibrium has shifted in the reverse direction. The hydrochloric acid provides a source of chloride ion. As we increase the concentration of the product, the equilibrium shifts in the reverse direction to use up the added chloride ion. We will now add water to the test tube. We notice that the solution has turned back to pink. By adding water to the solution, we've shifted the equilibrium back in the forward direction. We'll start with two test tubes with the cobalt water complex ion. We add 12 molar hydrochloric acid to one of the tubes. We notice that the solution turns blue. This indicates that the equilibrium has shifted in the reverse direction. The hydrochloric acid provides a source of chloride ion. As we increase the concentration of the product, the equilibrium shifts in the reverse direction to use up the added chloride ion. We will now add some silver nitrate solution to the cobalt chloride complex ion. We notice the formation of a white solid, which is the silver chloride. We also notice that the solution has turned from blue to pink. The silver ion removes chloride ion from solution as solid silver chloride. The equilibrium shifts in the forward direction to try and replace the chloride ion that's been removed. We're going to take a test tube containing the equilibrium mixture. The solution is pink, indicating that we have a high concentration of the cobalt water complex ion. We're going to put this into a warm water bath. As we warm the solution, the solution turns from being pink to blue. If you heat an equilibrium mixture, the equilibrium will shift in the endothermic direction. This is an indication that this reaction is endothermic in the reverse direction. Cooling the reaction mixture shifts the equilibrium in the exothermic direction. We notice that as we cool this, the solution goes from being blue to pink, indicating that the reaction is exothermic in the forward direction.
