Thank you everyone. Welcome back. Thanks for joining back in. We got your refreshments. Okay, we finished this entire section on page 52 on commitment to the local church, right? Any other questions besides what Thomas Thomas was asking? Any other questions regarding just a few additional points or thoughts that you can, you know, just make a note of is some of the points which is not mentioned in the notes, which can be considered as commitment to the local church is when you say that you're committed to a local church. Say you're committed to being present, you know, you're committed there to, you know, to serve. You're committed to praying for one another, for one another to encourage one another to stand in the gap. You're committed to giving your tithes and offerings to the church. You're committed to the service, right? And so it's so scriptural as well. So, you know, the value of commitment is explained so beautifully in the Bible throughout. God is a prime example, is the ultimate example of commitment. Like, he is committed to his people. Jesus was committed to his ministry and his mission on earth.  Imagine if Jesus was double-minded, should I really have to do this? I mean, where would we be now? So, Jesus was committed to his ministry and his mission. The disciples were committed to following Christ and the apostles were committed to their mission, you know, that they were committed to going out and making disciples because that was the great commission that was given to them, isn't it? So, they were committed to their call in sharing the good news. So, and while all these, it seems like a big commitments, like in all of these big commitments, there were small ones, right? So, like small choices that were made that had big impacts. So, commitment, it doesn't always just have to be big and, you know, whatnot. So, in conclusion, what was the highlight or what was the key takeaway from that section is, in our commitment to a local church, you need to ask yourself, are we committed to your local church only when there's good music or nice sermons and everything seems to be calm and easygoing, or are you committed, even when the church goes through some stormy weather? Like, are you committed when there are hard times, when the church is going through a hard times? Okay, will you still be around to help the church help one another in the church? Okay, so that's the importance and the power of commitment. All right, so the next section is talking about personal accountability. Personal accountability. Worship team members are required to hold themselves to a high level of personal accountability. What is that? It is self-governing ability and an expression of spiritual maturity. Okay, personal accountability is self-governing ability.  Are you the right place with God? How's your walk with God been and all of that? So, being able to self-examine, self-govern, and also an expression of spiritual maturity, that's the result of personal accountability. Okay, so here are some practical ways in which personal accountability can be expressed. Okay, one, worship team members ensure that they spend personal time with God in reading his word in prayer and in personal worship. In so many ways, this is again connected to commitment. Are you committed to spending time with the Lord? Are you committed to, you know, spending time in prayer with him, in personal worship? So, you know, worship team members ensure that they spend personal time with God in reading his word, etc. Okay, and second, worship team members ensure that they live holy and do not walk in sin. Okay, worship team members ensure that they live holy and do not walk in sin. If a worship team members, this is very important, guys, pay attention to this, right? If a worship team member feels at any point that their personal spiritual life is dry and not where it should be, or if they come into some form of addiction or bondage in area where they are in consistent sin, like the secret sin, as they would call it, right? If a worship team member feels at any point they are struggling with their spiritual life, they can do two things. One, voluntarily ask the worship pastor or the location worship coordinator to not roster them for a period of time. Okay, and reach out to anyone of the pastors at APC for spiritual help to be strengthened. So, what is important here is now, we give them an option to take a break. Okay, it's like, okay, you know, you're going through a hard time. Yeah, fine, we all understand that we all go through that and whatnot. But we can take a break, but what you do in that break is very important, right?  So I'm going to take from the worship team. I don't want to be rostered. I'm not going to sing or play anything. Okay, sure, you can take a break. And in the break, you cannot continue to do what you were doing. But instead, we encourage them, okay, you can still be in contact with me, you can still be in touch with me, I'm available to pray for you, you know, with the pastors or worship coordinators. So that way, once again, they're expressing their personal accountability, right? So once their spiritual life is back to where it should be, they can inform the worship pastor, worship coordinator to be rostered again. Okay, so all of these points, once again, is to highlight, these are some practical ways in which personal accountability which can be expressed. Okay, guys, these are all just the practical ways. Point four, if a worship team member feels that their skill in a certain area needs to be worked on, they should voluntarily ask the worship pastor or the coordinator to not roster them for a period of time until they are able to improve their skill level sufficiently to acceptable standards. And only after that ask to be rostered again, they can work with the worship pastor on their respective skills ahead or take classes or other means to make improvements in their skill levels. Okay, so all of this is just taking personal accountability, like I'm not able to sing and pitch, I want to increase my range, I want to get better in keeping time, singing with the rhythm, I'm not able to do that, I want to do all of that, so I'm going to take a quick, I'm going to take a break for a month or two, work on my skill. Again, you can't take a break and not do anything, right? You are expected to work on that skill, get better and come and join the team again. But for you to accept that, the problem with musicians is that they never think they are bad, okay? And musicians are one of the most, me being a musician myself, is we are one of the most sensitive people on earth, very easy to get offended. It's like, hey, what you're playing like that? Who are you to tell me, you know, as if you can play better than me? You know, you get what I'm saying, right? You are very sensitive people, you know, it's very dangerous to, it's a very risky thing to work with musicians sometimes, just being me being musician, being very honest. But it takes immense level of maturity to come to terms saying is like, hey, I am not as good as I should be. So I want to take a break. I want to work on that skill and get better and then rejoin the worship team, okay? Moving on. If a worship team member sees that they are unable to sufficiently practice and prepare before coming for rehearsals and ministry and time for ministry, once again, they should voluntarily ask the worship pastor coordinator to not roster them for a period of time and they are able to discipline themselves to practice and prepare for rehearsals and ministries, okay? For worship team members sees that they are unable to sufficiently practice and prepare. If they are unable to sufficiently practice and prepare for what? Before coming for rehearsals, if they are not able to prepare for their song lists, if they are not able to prepare learning the songs that were sent to them, or if you are leading worship, if you are not able to send out the song lists in well in advance, at APC, we expect the worship leaders to send out their song list by Tuesday or latest, latest, okay? We kind of put the mark on Tuesday. By Tuesday evening, they are to send out the song list to their team members or latest by Wednesday. There's no choice. Now, if the worship leader is not able to prepare sufficiently or practice enough to send out, and if that's the pattern, week after week after week, and that's been the case for two, three months, either that person should see that they are not able to prepare or the leadership will have to take the necessary step based on the feedbacks that's been received. So once again, we encourage them to take a break because again, guys, we have to be honest. Unlike most of the churches in the West or in other countries where they can afford to hire full-time musicians, full-time musicians, paid musicians for the church. So that means their job is that they are a musician for the church, a full-time. But that's not always the case in church, at least in most of huge percentage, like 99.99.5%, at least I would say, of the churches in India don't necessarily function that way because there's so many things to be taken into consideration. So we have people like doctors, engineers, students, homemakers, all people like them, part of the worship team, who are not professional musicians necessarily, but some of the IT professionals who work for long hours in a day. So we have, we understand all of that, isn't it? But at the same time, we are not going to say it's like, oh yeah, you know, you work for, you are a professional in a different field. So you can play however you would like to play, you can sing however you would like to sing. No, we can't do that, isn't it? When they say that I'm going to be committed to the worship team, they're also saying I'm going to commit myself to improve, get better, right? So that's what happens, you know, that's what is expected of this point. If you're not able to practice and prepare, we encourage them to take a break, work on them, and then get back. And the sixth point here is, if a worship team member recognizes that they are unable to be a regular at attending Sunday services, which could be, which could happen due to several personal reasons, they should inform the worship pastor, worship coordinator, and voluntarily ask not to be rostered for a period of time till things change at their end. Okay, notice, if a worship team member recognizes that they are unable to be regular at attending Sunday services for whatever genuine reasons that they might have, they're again encouraged to take a break. So once they are able to be regular in attending the Sunday services, they are actively receiving word being preached and are connecting to the local church family and body consistently for a period of time, then they can ask the worship pastor again to be rostered. Okay, and then finally the seventh point is, if a worship team member feels that they are not aligned to the vision, mission, and values, or the culture, does not feel connected with the worship ministry at APC or feels disconnected from APC as a local church family and body, they should off their own accord discuss this matter with a worship pastor, or with any of the pastors at APC. And during this period, they should ask once again voluntarily ask not to be rostered. Okay, this can happen to anybody, isn't it guys? It can happen to any individuals, you know, saying as like, yeah, you know, I'm not resonating with the vision with the values. So I want to move on, try a different church and whatnot. We don't force, we can't force, but if that's what they feel, that's what they feel, we encourage them to not minister during this time and until they make up their mind. Okay, any questions so far? Is it making sense? Awesome. Okay, yeah, I really hope.   Okay, so I hope there is really something that you can take off. Yeah. All right, and just in conclusion, just a few notes at the bottom. So all of the above are expressions of personal accountability. It is only when an individual does not voluntarily exercise. Okay, listen to this, it is only when an individual does not voluntarily exercise personal accountability. That means if that person does not come and tell I'm going through this by themselves, I want to break, I'm having a hard time, I'm able to do this. If that does not happen, then the leadership at ABC, the leadership will address this matter and take necessary corrective measures with that individual. Okay, which means that we will step aside, like, hey, it is noticed, it is come to our notice with feedbacks that you haven't been able to prepare as much as we would like you to be. Just notice that you are not in line with our vision or mission. It is noticed that you are not attending the Sunday services on the Sundays that you are not serving. And then as a leadership, you know, at ABC, we have to take corrective measures, isn't it? It's good. So accountability is also established secondarily through team meetings where spiritual life as well as growth of a worship ministry is reviewed. Okay, so that's just a full thought. And now in conclusion, here's just a simple roadmap for nurturing worshipers. Okay, so we've looked at, you know, what is expected of a worship team members? We are expected them to be committed. We are expecting them to have personal accountability. Now, once we as a worship ministry have this too, from the individual, their commitment and their personal accountability, what is our commitment to them? What is our accountability to the worship team members? Our accountability to them, our commitment to them is that we will nurture them. Okay, so in order to fulfill our vision, we need to develop people to help us get there. Okay, here is a roadmap on how we aim to develop people. In this case, worshipers to the, to develop the local church in the area of worship. Okay, so this is a roadmap which we use to develop, to empower, to equip the worship team members at our local church in the area of worship. Okay, so here we go. This is the simple journey. So you have a person, you know, who wants to join the worship team. But then we see if they are committed. And once we find that they are committed, we, you know, they can register to audition. Okay, they can register to audition. And then there's tier one, tier two, tier three, and we look at what happens. So this is the person, a believer with gifts, skills in music and vocals. Okay, who can sing, who can lead worship, who can play an instrument or instruments. This is that individual. And then here we have growing in the word, in the spirit and living a godly life, growing as a worshiper commitment to the local church. Okay, so once all of this is filtered, then the prep starts. So worship team prep. As a part of preparation, we first help people grow spiritually, grow as worshipers and establish commitment to the local church. Only after this, we let them audition for the worship team. Okay, as part of the preparation, we first help them grow spiritually, grow as worshipers. Only after that, we let them audition for the worship team. And then after that, in the orientation process in T one, what is happening is there's orientation and initial training. Okay, so we have an APC's worship team training manual, we share that with them. Okay, so that's what happens. You know, what is expected is to lead congregation to sing and worship the Lord. And then the next step is ongoing training plus growing. This is the step two of how we nurture them, right? ongoing training and plus growing, that is in spontaneous and prophetic worship, the band moving further in this area, leading the congregation into regular experiences of God's presence, release prophetic songs, flow in spontaneous spirit inspired worship. And then again, step three, this thing continues of ongoing training plus growing is leading congregation into personal encounters with God, with demonstrations of God's power through healing and deliverance. As a church, we become a habitation of God, His dwelling. Okay, so there is no end to nurturing a worship team members. There's always, you know, training and growing. There's always this ongoing training and ongoing worship team retreats where we held workshops, etc. Okay, so the commitment is we encourage them to grow in the word, we encourage them to grow in the spirit, we encourage them to live a godly life, grow as a worshiper and be committed to the local church. Okay, so this is the roadmap for nurturing worshippers. And this is what is followed at APC. Any questions about this? Any questions? I mean, do you think it can help you in your church where you are placed at? Or how different is it in your church? Okay, I see that. But Kanan Siddharth, are you guys okay? So that is the end of chapter four in page 55. Okay, so now we go on to chapter five. So chapter four was all about worship ministry in the local church. And we looked at all the organizational aspects of it. Right? All the organizational aspect, how it's organized, everything that is expected of the worship team members. Now, this chapter is all about the spiritual aspects of the worship ministry. Okay, it just goes into the spiritual expectations of a worship team member. And so, yeah, let's take a look at it, how this goes. So worship ministry, the spiritual aspect, spiritual requirements of a worship team member in a local church. First thing is, we expect them to be worshippers on stage. That is, in our church services, apart from the pastor preacher, it is the worship team that has direct spiritual impact on the lives of the people in the congregation. Hence, the worship ministry is an important part of a spiritual ministry of the local church. Okay, it is the worship team that has a direct impact, a spiritual impact on the lives of the congregation. And that is very, very true. Okay, it is most of the time, it's the worship team that kind of sets the culture. It's the worship team that sets the hunger level and the desperation level for God in the church. If the worship team is not hungry, if the worship team is not desperate, the church is not going to be hungry, the church is not going to be desperate. Okay, it is the worship team that has a direct spiritual impact on the lives of people in the congregation. We see that in the Old Testament time and time after, again, it is the worshipers, the Levites carrying the Ark of the Covenant went ahead of everybody else at the back, that the army was at the back. It was the worshipers that led the bunch of warriors into the battlefield. Okay, so worship ministry is an important part of a spiritual ministry of the local church. So as a worship team, we are worshipers both on and off stage with the lifestyle of worship. We are not a talented group using our skills to perform, entertain and please people. We are not just a skillful music band or excellent church band that sings spiritual songs. We are worshipers on stage and off stage. On stage we are worshipers who worship God with our gifts and skills as we invite the congregation to join us as we worship God ourselves. We are really facing God and not the people. Okay guys, so key points here for you to meditate on. Worshipers on and off stage, living a lifestyle of worship. That is, again, going back to one of the points that we learned about the four relationships that make or break us. Again, if you remember four relationships that makes or break us, one of them is your relationship at home as well, isn't it? How is your with your family? How is your relationship with the family? Okay, that is you being a worshiper off stage, one of the aspects of it. Okay, so three areas of responsibility to grow spiritually in this aspect. Three areas of responsibility. One is a personal life and testimony and commitment to the local church and personal accountability once again. Okay, three areas of responsibility is personal life and testimony, commitment to the local church and personal accountability. Okay, so let's quickly look at our personal life and accountability. But before I just continue, I want to ask again your thoughts on why is it important to be worshippers on stage and off stage? Why do you think it's important? Come on, speak to me. Why is it important? Kiran, Prince, talk to me. Anybody? The people who stand on the stage or pulpit worship the Lord, the congregation will observe them. At the same time, when they see off stage their behavior, it's not aligned to the way of their worship that will affect the brethren's faith or their spiritual work. And there is a chance some people go in the wrong way as well. Casually, they also worship, they also do, they also all things. What is there? Some people take it casually like that. Some people, so many things are there. It's very important not only to worship even the pastors and everything. It's on stage and off stage. It's very important. Yeah, I mean, so you're saying that they are very influential. Their life is very influential, isn't it? How they live their life off stage can influence a person either the right way or the wrong way, isn't it? So there was a leadership committee that gathered for a summit. And the challenge for this leadership committee was to come up with a sentence or a word to summarize leadership in one word or one sentence. And after discussion and whatnot, they came down and said that leadership, if it has to be defined in one word or sentence, the ultimate word would be influence. So yeah, I mean as worshipers off stage, worshipers off stage, we have to be very careful because we are very influential off stage and people are watching like you said Thomas, yes. And Kiran is sharing, we can see on stage how that person easily and we can recognize them how that person is real. You mean off stage Kiran? They can feel free to unmute your mic. On the stage. On the stage, okay. Yeah, but my question again, but again to everybody is why is it important to be worshipers on stage and off stage as well? Off the stage is when you're not on stage, why is it important to continue being a worshipper? It's not a tricky question. And what do you think? Yeah, Master, I agree with Prada Thomas what he told just now because see some people can see any church or any ministry, but some people used to worship on Sunday. They used to worship so powerfully on the stage or on Sunday morning. But sometimes, but right after the Sunday service from study from the Monday itself, they used to eat differently. So yeah, it really matters.  Thank you. And Prince, what do you think? What do you have to say? Prince, Mr. Prince. All right, so I think we kind of agree on the importance of being worshippers on stage and on and off stage. Right. So that's one. But let's just continue now with first our personal life and testimony. Our personal walk with God along with the skills he has given us is what qualifies us as a worship team member. Our personal walk with God along with the skills he has given us is what qualifies us as a worship team member. Okay. One point that comes under the personal life and testimony is a godly life.  That's living a godly life. And next, the second point under personal life and testimony is your spiritual growth. Okay. So three areas that are pillars in our life where we need to continuously grow.  And on this foundation, you see three pillars being built. What are those pillars? One, God's Word. Two, God's Spirit. And then three, our individual area of skill. Okay. Our individual area of skill. Okay. Do you think it's important to grow in the Word of God? Very important. Very important. Yeah. You know, and I'm not sure if I've mentioned this spiritual point before, please forgive me, but I'm just reminded of, again, the story of David, one of the biggest names that comes every time when we speak about worship and whatnot, right? You know, it says in 2 Samuel, chapter 6, we know that David was a very passionate worshiper, right? A passionate worshiper. And in 2 Samuel chapter 6, it says that David goes and brings the Ark of the Covenant back from the Philistines, right? And the first time what happens? They put the Ark of the Covenant on what? On a bull cart, on a cart, right? Now, by now, David is a king. He's been anointed. He's a king of Judah and Israel, right? Now, God built something. He prophesized something for almost 400 years before Israel asks for a king. How many years? 400 years, right? 430 odd years or so. In Deuteronomy, chapter 17, okay? Deuteronomy, chapter 17, we are not going to read that, but you can make a note of it and read it for yourself later. God very clearly says that when you decide to have a king, just like because you've seen the other nations and other nations have king and then you ask for a king, the king of all the responsibilities that he's supposed to do, one of the main responsibilities of a king was that he would make a copy of the Word of God and he would read the Word of God in the presence of the priests, the Levitical priests. And so something tells me that David as a king did not do that because if had he read the Word of God as a king should have, he would know that the Ark of the Covenant was not supposed to be put on the cart. It was meant to be carried by the Levites. And had David done that, one life would have not been killed or dead. You get what I'm saying? And it's not enough that especially this generation is like, you know, not enough just calling ourselves being, I'm a passionate worshipper, I love worship, I love worship, it's passion, it's my passion, it's my passion, I love worship, I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it, and no passion, absolutely no passion for the Word of God. You get what I'm saying? Yeah, so on the foundation of us being a vessel of honor, holiness and good testimony, one of the key pillars spiritual growth that needs to happen is to see yourself growing in the Word of God. If the Word of God does not excite you, then something is dangerous, something is not right. Okay, so ask yourself this question, does the Word of God excite you? Does it just bring joy to you? And do you want to see yourself growing, okay? Secondly, God's spirit growing in the spirit. Okay, let me see if I can get this. So in line with this first pillar, the first one, God's Word, you know, a reference point that you can, as a footnote, you can make a note of his Colossians 316, right? Colossians chapter 3 verse 16 is, let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, as you sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. Okay, so as a worship team member, as you sing the songs of God, as you play your music, let the Word of God richly dwell in you, right? And then we all know this once again, another famous scripture in Ephesians chapter 5, right? Ephesians chapter 5, it says, do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Ephesians 5, chapter 5 verse 18, do not be drunk with wine, but instead be filled with the spirit. Instead, be filled with the spirit, okay? Those are two different commandments. And if I were to ask you, if you ask any Christian, are you following this commandment?  Yes, of course, I'm a Christian, I don't do that, I don't, you know. But are you obeying the second half of the commandment?  So with this same glass, you know, I can fill it with wine and say, okay, no, I'm not drunk with wine. So I just throw it off. And now this glass is empty because you have not obeyed the second half of the commandment, which is being filled with the spirit. If your glass is empty, and if it is not being filled with the spirit, it can be filled with something else, not just necessarily wine, isn't it? So it's very important for us to be filled with this Holy Spirit of the Lord, okay? And finally, our individual area of skill, the third pillar, our individual area of skill. What are you doing to invest in yourself to grow in the skill and the gift and the talent God has placed over you? God has given you, right? Are you guys with me? So in addition to learning and receiving what is being ministered at APC as your local church, we also encourage you to read widely, okay?  And then finally, you know, we have a personal life of worship. Most important is the life of personal worship. I cannot lead people in worship if I am not a worshiper. I need to be a worshiper in private if I'm lead to worship in public, right? I cannot lead people in worship if I'm not a worshiper. I need to be a worshiper in private, okay? David could not have killed Goliath in public if he had, if he did not kill a lion and a bear in private when nobody saw. When he tells that I can take on Goliath, Saul asks him, how can you do this?  And David says, you know, when a lion or a bear took my father's sheep, I went after it and I struck it and I rescued my lamb, right?  So that's a very important point on personal life of worship. How is it? Is it in check? Growing in skill and worship. Worship team members must continuously grow and work on developing their skill as singers, musicians, worship leaders. It's the same thing emphasized in this pillar is growing in skill in our individual area of skill. In addition to serving at APC as your schedule permits, we encourage you to engage with other Christian bands, ministries outside APC to learn from and enhance your skills in worship. To take private classes, to go for singing classes, go for guitar classes, go for keyboard classes, drums, whatever it is, you know, learn. And finally, growing in Christlikeness and serving with humility, growing in Christlikeness and serving with humility. And remember, all of these points are talking about just one thing, our personal life and testimony. Okay. Your personal life and testimony will be seen with the godly life that you lead with the spiritual growth in your life and your personal life of worship. And are you growing in skill and worship? And finally, are you growing in Christlikeness and serving with humility? Okay. When you humble yourselves before the lord, that is called humility. When someone else humbles you, it's called humiliation. Right. So it is, the first one is better than the latter, isn't it? We don't want to be humbled by someone else. That is humiliation. But instead, what is better is humbling ourselves before the lord. Okay. Worshiping members must grow in Christlike character. What was his character? One of the key important things that he humbled himself even to the death and death on a cross and maintain the heart of a servant to serve with humility regardless of their gifts and abilities. Right. Like I said, musicians are very sensitive people, very, can be very egotistical as well.  How can you come and take my place? I've been playing this keyboard for 15 years. That's my spot. Yeah. I mean, those, those attitudes like that are big. No, no. Okay. We ought to pursue a humility of Jesus. Okay. Our identity is not in our giftings. So let's be comfortable in who we are in Christ. Amen. So serve with excellence and in a way that the Lord is glorified. I'll end this session with this line. Okay. Serve with excellence and in a way that the Lord is glorified. Okay. So I'll stop here. Any thoughts? Any questions? Okay. Was that helpful? Were you able to take away something? Okay. All right. Thank you. Thank you for sharing. And so we'll continue to learn as we, you know, progress, we go on. Okay. So thank you all for joining guys. You guys take care. Stay safe. And if you can download the PDF of the power of commitment. And I'll share that link with you so that you can download it right away. Okay. There you go. Thank you everybody. I'll stop the recording now. I'll see you all next week. Bye bye. Thank you Baskar. Very helpful today. Thank you Thomas. Thank you.


Can you define what Satanism is to you? The values of Satanism that I identify with, centers on rethinking and rebellion. I mean, even in a biblical sense, Satan presented himself as a snake to Eve and offered kind of the fruit of knowledge or the ability to be human instead of strictly enslaved to God in this kind of bliss. Satan didn't make us liberated souls freed from the accountability before God. No, we're dead in our trespasses and sins and guilty before God incapable of saving ourselves. But that's what makes what Jesus did so merciful. Jesus died to break the chains of sin that we would be free from the power, penalty and one day the presence of sin.  Put your faith in him and gnaw at yourself.


Hey everybody, what's going on? I am Greg Sosmin. Join today by Tom Vecchio Fandl here to break down tonight's NBA DFS slate. What's going on Tom? I'm doing good, big 10 NBA games tonight, playing basketball, whether it's NBA or college, let's go. But tonight, we're gonna be watching the Portland Trail Blazers take on the Dallas Mavericks specifically for Luka Donicic. Luka is priced at $10,400 tonight against Damien Lillard and the Blazers. Blazers are 4.00 underdogs. You like Luka and the match, how come? We have a 234 point over under and the Trail Blazers are coming off a win last night, but this makes their third game in four days. Maybe some tired legs. I think that Luka can take advantage of that. Not just because of that, but because Portland is dead last in the league when it comes to Fandl points allowed per game to opposing point guards, seeing at 51.69. We already know that Luka is producing 1.49 Fandl points per minute on a 35.9% usage rate. So we have a super high over under. We have a great usage rate. We have playing production from Luka, hopefully seeing those 70 points that we saw from him the other night against the Clippers. So I'm going back to Luka the Don tonight. With the Blazers playing so many games recently, Luka a bit more rested and a bit more ready here at $10,400 to hopefully dominate your lineups here in this matchup against Portland. Up next, let's go with bigger guy, specifically a huge player in Nikola Vuchovic. Vuch is priced at $9,700 for the Magic, facing off against a Brooklyn Nets team. The Nets, they're big time favorites. The Magic are coming on the second night of a back to back, but you like Vuch in this spot. The Nets have obviously struggled defensively, specifically against Big Ben. Exactly, they're allowing the third most Fandl points per game to opposing center, seeing at 55.88, $9,700 for Vuch tonight. That's $1,300 cheaper compared to Jokic, which I think is a considerable amount of savings when we're getting somewhat of a similar production. I'll say that Jokic will always have the higher ceiling being able to push towards 70 points more consistently, but we still can get 50 plus out of Vuchovic tonight. He's producing 1.39 Fandl points per minute on a usage rate over 30%. It's a pace-up spot for Orlando, their 22nd in the league going up to the Nets that are eighth, not playing a whole lot of defense. I want to take the $1,300 of savings and use that elsewhere on tonight's slate. A lot to like here with Nikola Vuchovic, to distribute a good spot under $10,000 this evening. One final player to get to, and that brings us to the Boston Celtics and specifically with Jason Tatum. Tatum is priced even cheaper than both Vuchovic and Vuchovic as he's under $9,000 tonight here at 8,900. Since he also break Tatum has been a bit inconsistent. Hopefully that changes tonight against the Sacramento Kings. If there's any spot for him to get right, it's against the Kings who don't like to play defense this year. We have a 234 point over under and that's kind of the normal situation we see for the Kings over the past. Few games on this East Coast road trip, just plenty of points from their opponents. And if that's the case, I want to be looking at Tatum who as you said is under $9,000, a very solid 32% usage rate for him. We're looking at 234 point over under. I'm expecting 40 plus, if not 50 plus points from Tatum tonight. The Celtics have been struggling a bit this season specifically on defense. So the back and forth potential is certainly there, but I'll take Tatum with his 1.30, 32 points for me. Going up against the Kings defense that looks more like Jester's. Folks, he wrote that line last night and had a huge smile on his face. The Kings look like Jester's on defense. Mainly that's great for Jason Tatum. Price tonight under $9,000 and get right spot for him. So get him in there, all along with Luch and along with Donchich. You want to win some money on a fangirl tonight. That's a new for us here at the Band of the Hurry of Time, we appreciate the time. Come up with more fantastic content this weekend, will ya? Same to you, I'll see you again next week. Absolutely, enjoy the madness of March. We can't wait to talk more about it next week. For time out here, I'm Greg Sussman. Have a fantastic weekend. I'll see you back here on Monday for another edition of the Fans of the Hurry Up.


As you can see, the hot leather is enough of a sauce but this is only for the private luncheering, which is a few biennial and a part of our tree and everything else. While we are flamping, so, right, two more questions. Anyone don't trade finance and bank in the world? Yeah, why?  What about supply chain? Okay, one. Okay, I'm talking to explaining about supply chain right now. Okay, trade finance. Next slide, please. So, in trade, look at, just imagine, you want to buy something from Taobao and maybe some e-commerce website and everything. These are not latest, more traditional trades, right? Sorry, it isn't right here. That's all right. I have to explain what's like. As you can see here, trust in trade because there is always, if you put your money somewhere, who do you trust? Can you tell me? The bank. Yeah, the banks. And if I want to buy containers and everything, so usually I go get ladder credits. So the ladder credits can be frauds, you know, can be photoshopped and stuff like this, and put in a lot of digital formats. So, lock chains helps because it just can never return and stuff like this. So, next slide. I'm going to show you something else. Next slide. Okay, as you can see, a little bit history, so it's a bit boring, but as you can see, rather than here, back in the 15th century, people on trade were on ship, you know, the ship was then moving forward, all right, half a year. And people said, they come to Venice. Yeah, 16th century. Okay, possible. And then it goes to, like, such an effective fact. Venice. After that. Okay, 90s, a lot of point. 90s, 80s.  You guys have one day more. Okay. And telecom communication. I want to point to this type of communication. I've been through this era, and from the test of mine, all the way up to, you know, the type of days and times of the month, and you can connect with them, and after that, you go from there and now you apply to that machine. So, and nowadays, you use a phone. All right, today, I hope this is not a type of, so I'm not down here, but I'm going to show you a little video. But there's no sound, so let's play the video. Right, this is talking about the, someone, someone, or five hours. And there's a flower.  Okay, strong to me, but then pass But then just to set the lights, Let's look at how the supply of goods benefit from the actual goods. What benefits do the supply chain The I-Portugana be able to pass the inter-tasking So can I get any therapy to go through the journey and stuff like this? So what's the question? It's a question that we have to consider where our goods are going to be And if the supply of goods is wrong, And if the supply of goods is wrong, And you can take the pictures of every single container And send it to the private supply chain For the last five years. And the I-Portugana be able to pass the inter-tasking And provide each and every container Pass all the cares that the I-Portugana be able to pass the inter-tasking And provide each and every container Pass the directions at the shipment I will now pass the nature with not so much of your business As your business can be successful You think you are cheap And not all business can be cheap And not all business can be cheap So you can have a whole operation on this What's the point? The I-Portugana be able to pass the�미스태 And you have left, now I think I've gone falsely, okay, that's it, it's time, right, let's go back, so what's the problem here? The problem with trade that is contrast, easy to do, and it's like it goes, you know, on the bank nowadays we use to use the bank, while you're trying to learn, and it's not hard to peal in voices, I think you guys do a bit quite often that it can elate events, getting letter credits, anyone get a job getting letter credits? I think that's a huge, huge, big point, every single document is a very big concept. Yeah, and lack of compliance and employee can easily determine the thing, and if the employee leaves the thing, if I take a photoshop of their letter credits and just go, say bye bye to the company, I think you said, if we use their letter credits to do some other funky business, correct? So this is like crunch, like my face says, so what's the difference? We look at this modern supply chain thing, and we can bring it to a visibility and fast because this is not changing anything, and it's distributed, you can just peal and then put proof and hash and everything. Well, hopefully, hopefully we can cross all the costs and all the banks and insurance and any financial advantage in the business because our PSA and corporate authorities are coming down from a smart phone program, making these things, but they have a launch interest, and also transparency in a sense, and I don't need to think that because it helps to make the sentiment to a smart contract. Yeah, next slide, thank you. Right, ah, this is the main thing that comes to you, look at this, look at this here, pay buyer, be buyer, want to go buy something, and then this is the solution, what do we get, you can decide the price and stuff like this, and why blockchain, because the transparency in the solution exists and everything, so I don't need to see the slides, but they just want to talk to you about that. So I want to talk about a blockchain model. Blockchain model this year is quite amazing, it is not exactly a separate proof, and also at the same time, the latter credits, the latter credits will also be replaced by smart contracts, and also the latter credits, sometimes we go through a transition period, sometimes a corporation stays in some latter credits, so that's it. Okay, fine, we will just put it up, scan the EDF and then put it on hash, and make sure it doesn't reduce again. So, next slide. Yeah, we're not out, we're not out, yeah, okay. We reach out to small businesses, because EDF is doing the same thing as me, but we can't just go and join the same partnerships and everything, and also we try to partnership with small data startups, I'm an introvert myself, we live in helping other introverts, start a blockchain, start out as an introvert, because as you can see, blockchain is quite fun, because the adoption for B2B business is usually 6 to 8 months, if you're lucky, you select 8 months and 24 months to get one customer.  We are trying to expand Singapore, we are in EDF in Hong Kong, we are validated in Hong Kong, and we try to experiment at all, and we try to embrace that factories and all those, and getting them on board, and make sure that sometimes the factories are very, very funky, because they can just make a photoshop for all the documents, and they say they want to loan for the banks, and they want to loan for the banks, and then the factory are fake. So what's it got money? Bye bye. There's a lot of Chinese factories, when I was working in Marks & Townsend, by the box company in the finance department, and lots of factories like this. Okay, next month, please. Ah, where are we? Okay, this is the whole chart of the blockchain with the global scale. I'd like to thank to Autonomous, because they are doing amazing things in Singapore, and they're not coming as new chain, they are with US. If you'd like to share the spice, I can use the spice here, and this is South Bank, they have the smart contracts, and I'm very sorry I forgot to put the chorus in, but I'll do that. So, they got this internet company, and blah blah blah, and so on. So, next slide, please. Next slide, please. I'm very fortunate, I'll say, I'm very fortunate that I'll thank to you, as you think, that I'm spending here, thanks for letting me give you a chance to speak here, otherwise I don't want to. And also, we're going to be integrated by the media, and we're going to try and close everything, and there are big customers, like Marks and Spencer in Singapore, we're looking for a job, we're just putting up a job, and we're looking for mentors, and we're looking to be using the top chain, and it's very hard to find investors in that space, because this is the next big thing, it's not a hype, but it's the next big thing, you'll find this later. Okay, next slide, please. So, this is our team, this is where I am, and I can show you this slide later, and you can find me on here, and next slide, please. Right, this is my contact, thank you for coming, and I hope you guys are not forced by that, and next slide, please. Thank you, yeah, and yeah, this is our team, because we are partners and entrepreneurs, and crazy people, so if you don't know anything about this, do try it, do come across to me. I will give you big coin, but I won't say how much, because a lot of people will say, hey, give me big coin, I will say, yeah, but I just want you to try it, because I used to be a coin trader, and after that, if you did not find it, and after that, this changed my life, and anyone thought of big PCC? Yeah, okay, I think you guys are partners. So, let me tell you a story. Somewhere a year ago, there was a big coin, association, Hong Kong Association Conference, I spent my 10 years in Hong Kong, so I spent two start-ups in Hong Kong as well. So one of my friends, Brooklyn, he said, hey, you know, we have to go to the conference.  So, that's cool, after party, you know, there's a lot of technology, it's coming up, very cool.  Okay, so I met Bobby, Bobby Kou, the founder of BTCC. If you don't know who is BTCC, you can google it, just type BTCC. It's the largest exchangeable. It's about 20%, 20%, 30%, and make a guess, just on that time, I just went to website, and they say that they're able to mine with coins. Guess how much? 1,000 pink coins per day. That's a lot of money. And today's money, maybe 1,000, what's the price again? Yeah, so I think they have double down, they have double down, they have 2,000 pink coins around, they can mine 2,000 pink coins a day through their farms. And I was like, hey, who is this guy? And it was like, you know, after that, he went to TechCrunch, and really went to TechCrunch, just think about it, it just changed my life, it just changed my life, and I saw a physical IoT device, like it's smaller than this, and it was not even smaller than this, right? And this relation that I was building, an IoT Bitcoin device, and it's just like, it's so...  So I wish, I wish, you can send me one Bitcoin at a time, but hopefully, I'm like... Anyway, I hope you can try this, this is amazing, you just do a QR code scan, and yep, you click the code, yep, sorry about that. You see that? Yeah, you see that as well. Okay, questions? No, I'm done. Sorry about that. This is a bit long name. Yeah, that was too long. Yeah, that time was too long. Time of translation was about, this is quite fast, there's all the truth you can put that. Yeah, yeah. Around that. Around that. Yeah, any questions? Sorry about that. I'm very... Next slide. Yeah, let's go back to the slugs again. The cardboard over here, which one? This one? Forward. Forward. Forward. No, this is backwards, this is forward. Forward. Yeah, that one. I wish they could put a lot of blocks, but enterprise, they don't. And everything is, they like to put themselves in the inside. They want security. Yeah, and they're quite, because competitors, if I open up, competitors and competitors can see each other. Oh, what are you doing this? Okay, I tried to buy this and that, and that's why we call this one a transfer. It's a transfer. But you put them on. So, competitors, competitors. Yeah, no, they can't see them. Yeah, they can't see them.


Alright, in the last segment what we did is we derived the equation for the log mean temperature difference and so what we're going to do now we're going to take a look at how the temperature is actually within the exchanger and remember we're looking at parallel flow double pipe exchanger how the temperature is mapped to LMTD and just to write out the expression that we had so that's the expression now one thing to note and this is a bit of a shortcut or not a shortcut but it makes it a little easier to remember and notice that this expression here th2 minus TC2 is the one that is in the numerator and then th1 minus TC1 is in the denominator so that is always the way that we have it configured for the LMTD temperature and and so it's useful if you remember those makes it a little easier when you're doing your calculations but what we're now going to do is we're going to go back and and really that this was in the derivation but I'm going to summarize it again and figure out what these temperatures are and how they map to where we are in the exchanger and so if we're dealing with a parallel flow heat exchanger what we have is this is T hot 1 and this is T hot 2 and this is T cold 1 and T cold 2 so that is the way that we designate the temperatures for a parallel flow double pipe now looking at counter flow so if we're looking at a counter flow heat exchanger and then we would have TH1 here TH2 there and T cold 1 here and T cold 2 there so you can see that what we're doing we're putting this as being location 1 and this is location 2 again here that is location 1 location 2 and then the the temperatures would either be hot or cold and they would correspond and so that's how you can get the temperatures that you would use within the LMTD expression as shown above now this was derived for a double pipe heat exchanger and so we do have to make a minor correction if we want to apply it to heat exchangers other than double pipe okay so if we're trying to apply LMTD to something other than a double pipe configuration then what we would do we would write out our heat transfer overall heat transfer coefficient the area that the overall heat transfer coefficient is computed for this correction factor F and then delta T and F is a correction factor and delta TM is the log mean temperature difference for counter flow double pipe so essentially what we're doing is we're mapping one to the other now where do you get F from F is from figures I'm not going to give you any of them you would find those in any textbook but you would have them for cross flow heat exchangers so radiators things like that you'd also have them for shell and two heat exchangers you can find the value of that and those would be tabulated in these figures and you would look up the value from that so what we're going to do in the next segment we're going to solve some problems using the LMTD and we'll see how it works so that's where we're going


Shea Bear 1000 here today we're going to be trying to put these rollers one on each side onto this trailer so the boat will load easier. There'll be some fabrication involved in this and the number one tool that you're going to be using is up here because there's so many different ways these can these can be put on. I'll show you how I'm going to do this one but you know you got to use your mind and try to figure out how it's going to be so stick around let's see if we can get these put on today. So I've been looking at this and if I put you know that boat's going to have to come out there it's no biggie if I put these here they're going to be a little too high so I think what I'm going to do is I'm going to have to move the rollers down a little bit to match my boat so what that's going to involve is just taking these bolts out these two bolts I can't see what you guys are seeing there that bolt and that bolt out and I'll lure this down where I need it to be I'll mark it and then drill two more holes and bolt these on where I have to have them so first thing I gotta do is get that bolt out there there's one on the other side what that wasn't one time there was like an eye here and you'd hook something to to tie your boat off or you know to strap your boat onto the trailer so which I just usually come around the back like I said this is not the right trailer for this for this boat so I'll have to I need to eventually extend the boat out or extend the trailer at least 18 inches I think 18 inches will put me where I need to be on it so I gotta get that bolt out and do some measuring and I think once I lower that that roller down a little bit I think it'll be all right and that should put my roller about this far back which should be plenty just to guide the boat up on I think it'll help out a lot so let me get some tools and let's get started on this thing all boats moving get this thing on a jack okay now this is one case where I don't care if this boat breaks off if nothing's going back in there anyway so this is what I did stuck it something like that that didn't work oh it just got the impact out this will be clamped with these these are there are two different ways you can put them this will go on like that needs to be now you can either clamp these on at a first cross this one would go let's say let's say you've got a cross member that comes up down you can you know go like that one on each side so what I'm going to do is I'm going to get these put on here loosely and then we're going to go from there so let me get you set up at a different angle there's no lock washers on these things they've got these nilocks a little bit of nylon around there and once you screw that screw that up on there it makes the nut really tight it won't back out on you I'm not sure what the what size they are let's see to the base well I'll be darn cool see there's I could have just showed you this picture two different ways I'll show you again here in a second these are the caps for the top that's not going to go like this of course I'm just setting it there until we get these starting on let's stick it here what I want to go okay just like that now something like that now we get these screwed in here some and then I'll bring you back when we're putting the roller on okay now we're going to put the the roller in if you want if you want to use a socket or whatever you can cut these off so you use a socket on it I try to refrain from doing that Jesus especially on my stuff because if I find a better trailer I happen to pick up a better trailer I want to put these rollers off here on to the other trailer you know I might have a different setup and then these might be too short then but let's go ahead and get these on here or this one a little bit too much just a smidgen too much so let's loosen one of these up since I've got them crossed this side actually made for that and that so it's kind of like an x pattern so it shouldn't take much just you know trial and error on something like this because remember you're kind of fabricating this to fit your trailer because all trailers are different you know you can have two identical trailers but there could be something different about them yeah I'm definitely going to have to lower that roller down it's not going to be that big of a deal so I'm just gonna snug this up here just so I don't move and I'll show you what I mean about this roller that I need to I need to bring it down okay so this is what I'm talking about the roller needs to come down see it's barely touching it this is what you want to be here so I'm gonna have to lower this down here some excuse me which I'm surprised they didn't make this more you know adjustable for different boots but anyway so let me go ahead and get these snugged up because they're about where I want them let me get them snugged up and then we'll move on to this okay I got this tightened about where I want it okay I still got plenty of threads down there so what I got to do what I was telling you this needs to be I want this part to be about right here so I'm going to lower this down as far as I can go with it and drill a couple new holes so yeah I'm surprised they didn't make this more adjustable with more holes either in here or in this thing so I don't know I'm definitely going to have to make the holes in here but that's okay no biggie I'm gonna go ahead and take this off as you can see it's fairly straightforward I wish the rest of it I could tell you it was straightforward but it's not because your trailer may different be a lot different from mine and like I said every trailer is different you might have two identical trailers but you put two different boats on it you may have to adjust these and put these different places so like I said you got to use your head but so anyway I'm going to go ahead and take these out we'll get these holes marked where they need to be and we'll drill them out okay guys so I loosen this up so I can adjust to where I need to be for my rollers so now remember if you guys go well I want plenty of room here that's understandable you're going to want some room you don't want it right up against it but if you're out two inches on this side you put the other one out two inches that's four inches of play so if you're if you load your trailer you're clear up against this one that means your trailer is going to be all four inches on the other side that's too much for this boat I'm going to go about a half an inch on each side that'll give me an inch if I'm over too far one way or the other because sometimes if you get uh there's a there's a boat ramp right down the road here and that lake is hard people have trouble all the time getting in and out of there and it's just it's kind of a pain for that reason so it's hard to get your boat on straight all that jazz you know so I'm going to get these tightened up I had to make ground holes because I couldn't make square holes so I'm going to have to get vice grips or something on here to hold this because these are locking nuts I may just find me a couple nuts I'll need four of them that'll go on there and put a lock washer on so let me go see what I got okay so now are you in frame now I'm going to straighten this up I'm going to go one pinky my right pinky uh that's about where I'm going to go there now I'm going to tighten these boats back up down here and this side will be all done uh let's stay sure right now okay so that's what I'm going to do I'm going to jump to the other side I'm not going to bore you with it because the other side just going to be a mirror image of this about one pinky uh we'll see how it loads and unloads I'll carry a wrench with me and I can always adjust it if need be right there at the ramp so it's no big deal okay so there's what they look like tightened up like I said you can cut them off if you want I just like to have the versatility of getting them you know in case I want to switch these to another trailer so yeah uh I would have had this done the other day but we had like three days of rain and the other day it got really bad well I was going to do some more work on the boat but you can see thunder lightning check it out had another little tree come down which I was going to cut down anyway for the neighbors but so yeah all right let's move on okay guys so I've got this side done we got a little caps on there uh those will probably be coming back off because I'm going to extend these up a little bit higher maybe another 18 inches 20 inches and I'm going to put I'm going to get rid of them lights I'm going to get the smaller ones and put on top those are just too long to be sticking out and uh same way with on this side now that should be about right so yeah if it if it's one way or the other it's not going to be enough to where the trailer is sitting real super crooked and these according to my measurements are out wider than this so it should come off okay and go on okay if I gotta do some adjustment down at the ramp you know I'll just take a wrench with me and I'll do the adjustment down there sometimes you gotta do that but this should be pretty close I think so so there you go that's how you put them on okay guys so I'm going to go in get warm or yeah warmed up really want to go in and get cooled down this is what I was telling you about there they can either crisscross or be side by side depends on your thing but you can't be real specific on how to do this because like I said you might have two identical trailers with two different boats on them so you're gonna put them on different they're gonna adjust to the boat they don't adjust to the trailer but that's you know enough to get you started now you kind of know you got an idea of how to put them things on they're real simple when I extend these up and move the lights up oh bring it along with me for that uh you can also get those big tall ones that um they're PVC but man I why does it work that's what I did you know trailers just probably two or three a week come in needing new ones they'd break them off because they're galvanized so far up and then the rest is and and they get beat up I mean you're going to beat these things up so make sure they're tight but uh you know they'd be breaking them off and stuff and so mostly what a lot of guys would do they'd be can you extend that up so it's metal a little higher and a couple times you can buy just the rollers a couple times on the bigger boats they had me put the rollers up here because you know like the side of their boat would be this high so they'd have me put the rollers up here so anyway guys there's just so many different ways you can do that it's real easy like I said this is your main tool up here um so I'll bring you along with me when we get it out on the water I don't know if we're going to go to day or not hell it's 92 degrees out so 91 92 ish so I'm going to cool down and I want to say thanks for coming along with me guys I appreciate it and stay tuned for when we get the boat out and check and make sure there's no water coming in so we're getting there thanks for coming along with for the ride with us man appreciate it shea berry met the man legend gone for now don't forget to check out monkey 1000 channel appreciate it thanks monkey and thank you guys I appreciate it we'll see you guys soon bye bye and take care


Today we're going to talk about formatting text in PowerPoint. I've opened up one of my PowerPoint files, and this is what our goal will be today to change the color of the text, to change the alignment where it shows up on the slide, to change the font style and the size. So what we first do, we click inside the title box and you highlight by clicking where you want it to start, hold down your left mouse button, move your mouse to the left or use your mouse pad. Then you move up to the toolbar here and first we're going to change the font. And if you notice if you hold your mouse over it tells you what each icon or what each word does. I click on the down arrow and let's say we're going to take, let's pick one here. Okay, maybe the AR Christie. Now I want it to be a little bit larger so I come up to the font size, click on the down arrow, and my titles I usually make very large so they stand out. So I'm going to go with about 80 there. And now while it's still highlighted let's change the color and let's make it the purple. So I'm going a little different from what the slide showed in the beginning here. That looks pretty cool. Now if you noticed on the first slide I had right align and you normally have it centered. So let's change it back to right align, aligning the text. So again I highlight. Now this I go to the paragraph toolbar and just watch as I click on it. That's for aligning to the left margin. This is centering and this is to the right. The justify usually means when you have a paragraph it'll show an even margin on both the left and the right side. Okay so that covers most of the font changes here. Let's highlight one more time and we're going to click on the B for bold.  The I italicizes it, makes it look like handwriting and then you for underline. Okay so let's see how much you remember. So here is your home tab that you click on. You're going to go to the font section. And where do you click for the bold? When you want to bold letters make them darker. Very good. The dark B. And how about italics to make it look like writing? Okay the I. And then when we're going to underline the U. And then how about font style? Very good. You click on the down arrow to get more listings of font styles. And the font size right next to it. Again clicking on the down arrow gives you more information. And the font color.
