live man we got going on I'm sorry tab hold on somebody wants to go live I was going what's going on man yo I called then I love your show I love listen to your podcast thank you thank office it's amazing thank you I just wanted to share my government contract and experience okay all right so I started my company in October 2019 yeah I was a college student going to school for engineering I was working for my cousin and he does contract so every single I would go to school to school then after I would go to work and I'm seeing millions of dollars I'm just like oh my god so I just stopped going to school I like that I like that I wish I was that smart I wasn't I finished college I've never used my degree in my life but I finished so I wish I was a little as well one time I was at this dinner and well that's beyond story but three three months later I get my first contract it's a state contract though okay that's fine yeah but it posed a lot of challenges was worth half a million yeah I didn't have any money I didn't do a flunky college do it no but listen hey Mark Zuckerberg is these jobs yeah I was in the military so that helped me a lot too all right okay okay um so I sold my jewelry I was like every I oh man it's good I was feeding the catering the cow fire okay Riverside uh-huh yeah so I did whatever I had to do it was crazy okay you pulled it off pulled it off it was supposed to be it was supposed to be for a year and we did so good that they extended us for another year they changed up it just wrote a new contract you're like you guys are done great you know but and I like that because what did you show would you say grit resiliency you didn't give up you said I sold my jewelry look look at that I got a better chain and when I listen I love that story man that's that's that's good stuff brother I'm happy you came on to share that with us today thanks I had to share with somebody somebody that would appreciate it right like your family they don't understand you know because one thing I tell folks and as you start getting business it's true it is lonely because we don't have people we can talk to that can relate and I joined an organization called EO I don't know what your sales right now but when you when if you get if you do over 250 a year in sales you could join an organization called EO accelerator or entrepreneurs organization and it's a lot of business owners like ourselves that we built our own business and we get together and we talk about like stuff that's going on in our business it's not you don't pitch yourself but you're around like really solid folks and business that again some are at your level but most are way above you and that helped pull me through when I had my hard times my difficult times because you know look you had a good story but sometimes you might you might get a rough patch and oh my god tears I imagine that's all my family met like a lot of people helped me but a lot of people didn't tell me yeah it was like it was like I reached out to everybody I thought I would have my back and it was just like no figured out but I did I found a factory's company and they wouldn't they wanted to be signed on to the contract and nobody like that's impossible you can't do that after I've already signed it like they're not gonna do that so I'm trying to negotiate with the fact and company to just let it go I'm trying to talk to them like yo can we figure something out I'm trying to write it's first so I'm dealing with that money yeah and I'm in the industry that I have I have experienced but not much right right right right I was an aviation electrician in the military I'm doing catering now yeah yeah yeah but I study industrial engineering so it's the same like that's the same thing I study industrial engineering yeah damn that's good story I love that story I really I do I think I think everyone here kind of love this story you're like give me big up man that's good no that's a now where you going next which what's after this oh I just got my first I just got my first I was entered in my first BPA oh shit okay yeah big boy teams big big boy the um detainees yeah it's crazy so you a but you know a lot of us sit back and we see the contracts and we see it right but we don't I don't know why people what why don't like the jump why they won't make like what you did okay let me ask you this let me ask you this how many people said you was crazy that was what I was gonna say at the dinner so I was at the dinner I had a mentor because you know when I got the military I was gonna school full-time at University of San Diego for engineering it was extremely difficult you know so I kept switching majors but I had somebody she was an older lady she was a rocket scientist she stopped doing that now she she's working on a business I think for tutoring which is perfect right now but they had like a little panel of successful people in San Diego okay and she was one of the people on the panel you know it's a full crowd full crowd and it comes to her to talk and then she's like she gets some sense he's about to drop out all the panel in front of everybody now I'm going straight for business I'm telling I saw all these millions so I'm like yeah but I just started business but at the time my thought process was security and just went about my date and some people was like you're making a good decision I'm people's like you're making a bad decision either way I knew right yeah but you're young so I mean I was you're young what's a big what's the how can you make a bad decision and you're young I got plenty time to figure it out yeah so but how did you okay you didn't tell us a story how did you get to a catering contract okay so my mentor okay he has a kid all right let's go back let's go back how do you get the mentor because my cooking by the way I'm not grilling you these are questions people ask me all the time this is important I'm sharing this knowledge because they asked those questions to me so I'm asking you as a young guy who's getting started like how did you get the mentor it's my cousin no that's good hey that's cool yeah so but you know we don't even look at and we we totally dismissed them no no with with with him while I was in the military I was supporting his business I knew he was gonna make it so throughout the whole way because I was getting I was I was making a lot of money in the military so you were so he reciprocated you helped him out look out for him and he looked back out for you when you guys started yes like other people could have did it too they didn't know but they didn't do it you did and that's why they don't have what you have yeah it's just getting started it just so coronavirus is over is over but hey anybody in the chat I'm looking to partner with somebody in El Centro that is doing meal prep meal prep yeah syndrome yeah all right listen do me a favor I'll do a better one should send Maria a message I'll put it in my um I've got seven thousand people my email list I guarantee I'll find you somebody before Sunday oh promise you I'll find somebody for Sunday okay that's perfect perfect all right but send it send a memory at email service at Bill Fon Giant's and we'll put it on our email list and then we'll put it out there and you'll find we'll find somebody look see we got people already on I know Missy she's a good person I already know Missy miss is connected she actually she runs the what do you call those things she miss I'm not in military so I don't go to those those facilities but she runs one out of Atlanta one of those facilities for whether the veteran guys go to so she's connected but we can we got people on our list any time someone asked me for like a help or assistance I sent it to my list and it just goes crazy it goes crazy like they say we don't want to contract in this day we want a welder over here we want a AWS SharePoint developer oh be there's no she's BFW commander a bucket that's Missy so she's connected but I'll be honest I'm not kidding isn't my main focus it's not my passion I really want to do that I know for a fact though I want to get into I want to figure out a way to provide COVID tests I'm trying to reach out to people like actually provide the service because I've seen context for that and I feel like I could upsell some of my customers now if I have that that capability I remember watching one of your videos yeah as mentioned something like that so yeah we actually the girl I was talking to today tonight about an hour ago she's she's got COVID tests that are 98% accurate and that that you can get results in 10 minutes and she is the distributor they're already on the FDA approved list no oh my god in fact I already she sent me samples I'm gonna send it to my boy out in LA who's a doctor out there I'm gonna shoot them I'm gonna shoot him that well because the way I feel about it is think about like this if we could have a controlled area and everybody takes the test who's sick a quarantine and who's not then at least we can make some steps towards this thing being over you know like that's you know that's good thing I look no I like that thinking you know what I do when I look at this is if we have a controlled network of people like me you and everybody on this chat that we all share ideas we could control money and opportunities and keep it inside of our circle that's the way I look at this stuff so that's why I like and I want to help my people because hey you tell me look I got this need all right I'm gonna shoot you you guys here bring a man bring this one in boom I think some other people here want to get changed like yours too on the chat so again so again you guys looking for me damn kill them man kill them out there yeah no that's a look good story I really appreciate that so but now we're doing that now we're collaborating and as you see I'm more on the ground now and before you know I was on YouTube and I could get this kind of interaction before YouTube back and forth it was always a one-way conversation so I really like this now and it's good because you the kind of person I want to I look I don't want to talk about no Michael contract I don't want to hear about no Michael stress I can't tell you I don't want to hear about selling TVs or selling pens I don't want to make one penny per pan but it's a practical thing more than anything like you get to the point where the profit is so small any mistake is extremely big so you're like thank you free all this stress for at least if you make a lot of money you have room for error okay they want to be late they want to skim ours people are gonna do that they're gonna do all that there's no way to get around it so you need to have enough profit in you so you can still do well unless you want to invest in like the proper measures I guess you want to get a security system people gonna feel weird or whatever the case is it's funny you said that people skipping hours I was on a call with a guy that I'm partying with now he's looking at job in Guantanamo Bay and he said and I did not know this in Guantanamo Bay he said every two hours you have to stop work for 30 minutes for the people the detainees to pray because they're Muslim I go wait no for detainees so every two hours the whole you have to stop working for 30 minutes well what the workers do they stop 30 minutes before the 30 minutes and anticipation of the break the break to be in 20 minutes like you might as well just wait till you know after the break and that's how it goes so going back to what you said is exactly the truth which is like people you lose your time any mistake you make if you only got a $200 profit window you can listen the girl just taught me tonight paid a thousand bucks an hour my 40-minute call was $743 my $200 profit was gone yep so you know just it just doesn't add up to me and and we're gonna do something and you're gonna put all your time and your effort in your brain capacity you're an engineer so obviously you're a smart guy right or you were you know studying engineers so that means you have the ability to do it why not go after something that's tangible like you said that's big that can pay huge dividends right but you're giving the you giving the juice man like I went to VIP in Washington DC it was amazing you heard of it VIP Network yeah yeah I just had her on my YouTube last week night oh god I gotta check it out great yeah yeah I just had her honor I just had her on we I did a podcast interview with her on Monday and I had her on YouTube it's a small clip but the podcast will be out in like two months but I had her on my YouTube yeah Rebecca Maria remember Rebecca yeah so now listen I'm connecting all of us together that you know I'm connecting us but hey make sure you similar to that message so we can plug you and and I've already seen like three or four people on here that that do food prep that can help you out so you did the right thing so all right that's good you got me excited tonight man you got me fucked up I get more excited for for people like you than I get for myself yeah I know the feeling you know you know I get honestly I get more excited for people like yourself because I because you know what I'm like yo you guys don't understand like you have to just try like this please at least one time I'll be honest I wasn't gonna do it the night of the you know the night that I was supposed to put the bed in yeah my mentor my cousin he called me he said you did you put it in I was like because it was really impossible I had no money I had I don't know listen for on Monday I didn't know how I was gonna pay my rent because I was gonna drop out of school focused on getting contracts right Friday got the contract but when I was writing it that night of cuz I didn't know it was I was worried about it but out that the night of I was up all night cuz I had to be mailed out I had to go to the FedEx and get it mailed out in time yeah so I'm making sure all my documents were good cuz it was a lot it was pretty big not really but it was a lot to do last minute cuz my cousin called me like hey get on it I wasn't gonna do it I was just like I was scared don't be honest but that let me ask what about past performance I did like catering jobs with people that own security guard companies because they have a large amount of people even if you go to a church there's a caring job I just only have to do is coordinate that or you get you get with people who have experience and then you can do whatever and you can hire a consultant you can do anything in this government contracting it doesn't matter right you just make it matter yeah the search for a consultant knows what they have their experience like any man may work yeah so I was at the first thing into one after yep no no right before it I was I was going after one that was 180 and I big way too high but it's the same company I mean the same same yeah yeah agency they made just okay so then like so I was always bummed I'll be honest cuz it was a lot of work like a lot of documents a lot of time I had to get all my paperwork in time that was a stressful part because I had just started like I was in business for three months at the time not even so before I got awarded it so probably like two months so trying to get coordinated like I gotta build my website I gotta do a whole lot of stuff it was back to back like all day on it right so it was tough but yeah next one I got it right but but this one but but even though it's tough you pulled it off and they gave you one-year extension yes so then now the one-year extension did they do a modification to your contract it's in it's in the works we haven't done it yet okay but they're doing a little modification to your contract I was wondering what's the best way to negotiate with them to so I can raise the price well you know most of the time they they allow you to actually do like to say like military cost of living adjustment cost you know they usually allow for that anyways yeah so they'll they normally allow for that stuff okay and I see no one of your videos make it simple probably get two lines people make this stuff so comp they wanted to be complicated and convoluted and it doesn't have to be it says everybody's sorry well I would love to partner with anybody in this chat especially you sir look we're gonna hook you up some good people I promise you we're gonna connect to some good people I love these stories we're gonna have much more this is gonna start happening every week I already know it from what we're doing and the vibes the energy we're putting out you coming on sharing and people coming on this is gonna happen more and more often and more people that look like us they're gonna be getting contracts and opportunity so yeah and I and I thank you for sharing because you could have sat back and just pay and just watched and not came on so I thank you for that for sharing that as well today you know that's that was big and like you said but listen look into the entrepreneurship organization thing EO it's called entrepreneurship organization EO I probably should have came here with a pen already no you alright you look you you jump out the plane and then forgot about the parachute on the way now I know I can I can I already know it already so we'll figure it out but listen Maria drop your email in the chat so he can have it and then we'll see if anybody wants to jump on before we minus group keeps putting his email in there so hit him up see what's what he's talking about and I know we've got some people that are already out there on the west coast so missy she's she's she's she can help out some things so I appreciate you alright be good yeah you too man listen that was good I like that that was that was that's a good that's a good Thursday cold I was actually hungry and I didn't eat but you know what I'm happy I stayed on so good stuff man good stuff I'm excited to hear the young man they like you know young Mark Zuckerberg dropping out of college launching his business for all you who didn't catch that you know man dropped out of college he was still in the military and then launches business in October 2019 won his first contract oh Marisa Wednesday see I don't even know day it is I'm just going thank you Maria see Maria has to be reminding what day we're on and put this up on my calendar but yeah good story good story yes I that was good I like that story it's good stuff what else what else by the way sometimes people ask me like hey a book about government contracting that is good this is actually a book that I like I'm not being paid to say this in fact Judy doesn't even know I'm promoting her book but government contracts made easier by Judy Brack this is actually a really good book if for anybody who's looking who wants to learn about federal contracting she I think I have a old edition because you know I've had this stuff a long time but this is a really as you can see look I have a lot of notes and stick stickers and stuff in it that's a really good book definitely for those who are interested in learning about government contracting Judy Brack does a really good job of breaking it down and hopefully one day in the future near future we will be able to have her on talking to folks out there so I know her and I've already we've chatted on LinkedIn about doing something together but she's a smart lady yes Maria got launched it's not out yet but my book we're finishing it up it's gonna be pretty good as well so I'm happy about it Missy Tara I wish I'd found you while on activity yeah well hey look listen it's never too late for any bus to get started colleagues are reading Judy Brack's book cool yeah no listen it's never too late for any us to get started out here I did bring a couple other books that I thought were good this one I read a long time ago it's called secrets of the million our mind by T-Harve Ecker again these are old books like you know these are old books but they're good man they're really like some of this stuff is powerful I'm gonna say like for example here out of this book and it says on T-Harve Ecker's book secret of the million our mind he says I choose to get paid based on my results right and that's that's that's the difference is that a lot of folks want to get paid for their time right and so that's the poverty mindset it's getting paid for your time not based on your results what would I say in the very beginning of this is fine wealthy people identify what are their problem areas and help them solve their problem so that's that makes no difference in a world if you want you know if you listen to the young man story just talked about he said look I had to figure out I had no money I dropped out of school I couldn't I wasn't about it we couldn't pay my rent the next month and then Friday I got the contract so it's funny here another quote out of this book says rich people are almost always excellent promoters they can are willing to promote their products their services their ideas with passion and enthusiasm what's more their skill at packaging their value in a way that's extremely attractive so what I'm saying again all of you out here have the ability we all have the ability I mean if you haven't already seen Wesley the six-year-old who's doing contracts we're about to bring on someone that worked with us who's 23 years old he has five contracts already so you're cannot tell me that there's a reason why that you are on the other side of this watching do not have you can't tell me that when I have six year olds doing it I have 23 year olds doing it have people dropped out of college doing it have ex kindergarten teachers doing it you can't tell me it just I can't I can't fathom why unless you're just not trying that's the best that's the best thing I can do is you know it's like look you have to try out here so look we're giving you all the tools we're giving the resources I know a lot of people are talking about my course but look again like I said I have a lot of content already that's everywhere out here that's you could go out and start learning this stuff what was the gentleman's name who was on in California I don't remember the answer with you he was somebody else might remember it so you know like I said I mean we've got five minutes left on here is anybody have anything else that they want to touch on talk about that was really that was really powerful call I'm like he's got me pumped up I'm not even hungry no more fear don't let fear stop you from taking action I agree you know and then it's funny because a lot of folks say I don't have good credit I don't have money and what did he say he didn't have he didn't have money what do you tell you and I and I share the story of the Stephanie and it's in our group who started her janitorial business and she didn't have any money and she got started so like I think that it's just too easy to sit back and to make excuses and not try and make an effort I think it's just much easier a matter of fact the person I talked about fear this is one of the bracelets that I wear which is you know master fear conquer life so it's funny because I actually I keep this on this is one of our GoCon giants bracelets that we keep that actually when we're doing our meet and greet this year we're gonna give people bracelets we have different bracelets we're gonna give so but because of COVID it got canceled got shut down yes this will be replayed I'm going to put it in our series on IG so you will be able to watch this replay if you're just joining us now you just missed a really powerful conversation with a young entrepreneur who dropped out of school college and he won his first contract out in california doing mill prep and he's now getting that contract extended and he just won another BPA for catering he's looking for to partner with mill prep companies so great story he took up about 35 minutes of the conversation go back and watch it you know if you missed this episode tonight so Karen thank you for commenting on the book I just want to give a shout out I love your comments I love your feedback on the new book it was good in fact I did today I went and did my trademark for the name so I did thank you Karen I did actually did that today I trademarked the name I well I sent the

Karen no it's cool um I'm excited and and the thing what is so you know like and I told Maria this I remember a long time ago Robert Kiyosaki says that this lady had this really nice well written book and he says do you want to have a well written book as opposed to a best-selling book and so for me I was like trying to put out the content put the information I'll put it out wait wait hold on wait wait TAFF why you said poor Maria I want to know why TAFF said poor Maria that's what I want to know um but so for me Karen what I was like okay I got to get this content to get this stuff on the page

so um that's where we're headed we're actually um if you want we're we're actually we're bringing we have four people that are going to be coaches uh and if you know if you want we can put you as a coach as well so we're headed that's where we're headed we're we're setting that up no don't worry Missy Missy look I've got already I have we have we I think 22 people agreed to review the book I think nine people reviewed the book so I have 279 comments uh I think between those 279 comments you know it will have it pretty much covered so don't worry you know I I actually have it up on my computer right now to work at uh but yeah no TAFF that was a good look that was a good look listen all people have been giving me great ideas and and how we can grow and develop and that's why we need help listen we need help uh uh you know we need help we really need help TAFF we need help bad we every day someone comes up with a deal this is what I'm showing folks like these are all people that want to work with us and partner with us like these are all deals that I'm looking at um that I'm like trying to figure out who do I want to work with and how and what capacity and how much the charge and what kind of stuff so TAFF we need help I'm crying out like we need help


Personal notice, changes my stock and trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you got a job for me, George Valentine. Write full details. Standard Oil Company of California, on behalf of independent Chevron gas stations and standard stations throughout the West, invites you to let George do it. The Floaters, another adventure of George Valentine. Mr. Valentine, nice. Mr. Valentine, please, please, please. Who is this?  Why won't you wake up? Can't you wake up and turn? Hey, look, lady, it's two o'clock in the morning. But I already told you. My name is Bernice Hillary and you've simply got to come here. I don't know anybody to turn to. Come where? Why? It's only a few hours drive for you. I'm the fourth cabin on the left, the border motel. It's a big place with palm trees and cactus. The Mexican border, it isn't far. Mexican border? The American side, that's the trouble. Only drive fast. Please, drive fast. You've got to get here before daybreak. I said why? What's the matter? Will you calm down a minute? Will you Bernice? No, no, no, no, no. The fourth cabin, you can find it. It's a big one, off by itself. My car is parked right beside it. I can't stay here and I can't leave. I'm all alone. I don't know what to do. If I run away, they'll catch me. And if they do, they... they might hang me. Not much of a drive. Oh, no. This doesn't look like much of a place. Either it does, it looks like. Might have been once. Nobody awake but us chickens. Here, that's the third cabin. Well, the motels all run down. Business on the border must be slacking off. Wait a minute. Here's your car. It is. She certainly doesn't need anybody's help. I'm off chromium to start a bicycle shop. Yeah. Come on, let's take a look. Probably lost, George. No, it isn't. It's what... Excuse me. I know you don't. This isn't a drive-in movie, Buster. What are you doing sitting in that car? Excuse, I said, chump. Slow down, will you? Senior, I take it back. You don't excuse. What for? You don't, but the senorita will. Excuse me.  George, are you all right? Oh, yeah, sure. Nobody here but us chickens, huh? Chris, one I ever saw with a mustache. He tried to hide when he came along. But here, see? He'd been rifling the dash compartment. Hey, the car's registered to Miss Bernice Hillary, St. Paul, Minnesota. Well, Brooke, see? She's a long way from home. Mr. Valentine, Miss Brooks, that's right. Yeah. You're Bernice, aren't you? Mm-hmm. Come in. Okay. Now would you please... You got here before sunrise, didn't you? Dawn's just coming, isn't it? Hey, hey, hey, hey, what's going on? George, she's hysterical. No, no, I'm not. I'm sorry, I made you go to all this trouble. Coming down here for nothing. For nothing. Well, look, we're here now, Bernice. So what's the story? For better or worse, let's have it. Well, I've only been here about 36 hours. I stopped over and I have my car fixed. I'm on my way to Mexico City. That's where my best friend lives. She married a man who has a tango band. Oh, it's wonderful if you like that. Well, wait a minute. Let's stay in one key, huh?  On 21, it's none of your business. I didn't ask you here to discuss... All right, all right, all right. So you're on your way to Mexico. Father, know about it? I said it's none of your business, any of it. Come on, get to it. You stopped here and last night something happened. What? I... I met the woman last night for the first time. She's German or mid-European or something. She didn't tell me herself, but the chambermaid did. I was curious. Who is this you're talking about, Bernice? Hell, Guy, I think her name is. I'm not even a citizen. People sneak back and forth here, you know. They never get farther, but they do stay here for a few hours. Well, anyway, she was talking to some friend, I guess, a real sour-looking apple. He coughed a lot. And then one of those immigration men came in the other end of the bar. Well, at least I guess that's what it was. Anyway, she asked me if they could bring their drinks over to my cabin. Was she in the man, I mean? So they slipped out. Well, I didn't even come over here until hours later. I had to pick up my car at the garage. You're wasting a lot of words. Are there two rooms in this place? Mr. Valentine, I started to go to bed in here. I'd forgotten all about those two. No, wait a minute. Are the rooms through here, I guess, huh? Well, wait, wait, please. I didn't have anything to do with it, not anything. I just opened the door. I'll look for myself, thanks. I'll catch you on fast. But I see what you mean. They're both dead. It's a double-suicide, George. Yeah, Angel. Poison. Looks like it hit her harder than it did him. There's two whiskey glasses there. This little box is what it must have been in. Ew.  There he is in the chair. Looks like maybe she changed her mind when it was too late to try to make it to the phone. I didn't see all that at first. Can you blame me? All I could see was something dark, and I touched it and she was dead. Yeah, well, never mind, Bernice. Who's the manager of this motel, Leona? Fred Dexter, I think that's it.  Yeah, sure, George. Watched down looking blonde. Muddy skin, cheap clothes. So that's Helga, huh? She was a sad sort of person, I guess. Chambermaid says she's been trying to get into the country for months, legally. It's only a few blocks. She'd sneak over this far in the evening sometimes. Sure, I know. To pretend she was already an American instead of a floater and nowhere, living with the chickens on a dusty board are waiting for some quota. Yeah, lots of people like that nowadays, Bernice. Waiting at the Golden Gate. Guy looks about the same. Holes in his shoes. Skinny, gray hair. You said he coughed a lot. I don't know who he is. I don't know and I don't care. That's why I sent for you, Mr. Valentine, to tell the police.   Well, kid, for my money, you ought to be spanked. And if you think I want to face the music for you, you... Please, please, Mr. Valentine. Stay there. Well, early caller. I guess I got the wrong cabinet. No, no, wait a minute. Looking for Miss Hillary. Miss Cabin, I thought it was really a thing. You work here, don't you? You're the chambermaid. Oh, look, Mr. Is... Is Helga there? Helga? Yeah, she's here. Why? She's a friend of mine. Ask me to keep something, that's all. Keep what? Well, it's a purse. Only I'm on my way to work now, Mr. And I just... Hey, what's that? Hey, what's the matter? Hey, Bernice. Bernice, come back here. Hey, you... Oh, for the... Okay, chambermaid, come in here, will you? Come on. What are you talking about? Dexter's my name, Fred Dexter. Yeah, I figured. But where is... That's Janie. Laundress, Coke, bottle washer. She's on her way to work, that's all. Getting my breakfast. And don't get so lavoured up. Cops will be here, nothing to steam about. There's plenty of suicides in this town before. Okay, maybe you're right. Plenty of suckers, too, I'll bet. Just like me. We call a police, Mr. Valentine. Now we'll just wait. What about this guy who coughed? Who was he? He and that Helga Dame, birds of a feather. Nothing to live for, and they flock together. It's easy to drink your last toast if there's somebody with you to keep your courage up. He never would have been admitted, made the quota. So, weren't that? Yeah, but I said, what about him? Who was he? Here's the evidence. Why don't you leave well enough alone? That's what the people do down here.  Forget him. He can't get far. If they do find it, there's nothing to say. It's a closed case. Buster, for the tenth time I'm asking... I'm just passing some advice. The guy who coughed, I don't even know his name. It's seen him a number of times in the past few years. He was an American citizen, wasn't he? Oh, sure, sure. But he was sick, broke. Lived on sleeping pills, whiskey, and dreams. Always been that one. Bought a case. Came here to get rich and didn't. There's a lot of money floating back and forth, you know, if you're smart enough to latch on or something. He wasn't. Are you? Look at this rat's nest. I had big ideas once. Thought I might latch on or something. Okay, that Mexican must-nash who hit me. How about him? I never saw him in my life. Okay, then this woman, Janie, who works for you. She's fat, reads movie magazines. I know what she's like. I just want to know where she lives. You mean her room? Where is it? Oh, should I know in town someplace? Why, you want a date? I want to do a little floating around myself, Buster. Maybe I can latch on to something. George, where have you been? Well, I finally found that chamber-made Janie's place in town. But, George, I've been... Never mind. Listen. She was keeping that purse for Helga like she told me, all right? Nothing in it much. Clean eggs, comb, about 16 bucks. Eyebrow pencil, handkerchief, period. And a torn lining. Somebody beat me to it. What do you mean? Well, Bruxy, I have a tiny little emerald here. And around one end of it, a bit of platinum wire. What? Yeah, all told worth 100 bucks, maybe. But this is something Jared loose from something bigger when it was jerked out. A brooch, maybe. A what? Something worth plenty. You get it? That Dame Helga shouldn't have been so sad after all. Maybe she didn't have her citizenship, but at least she had... Then he shouldn't have been sad either. The man who coughed. Huh? That's what I've been trying to reach you for. They must have owned that thing together. Darling, I checked the immigration people, like you said. And she wasn't here illegally, not this time. The two of them were married several months ago down in Ensenada. Well, how do you like that? Motors go flying out the window, don't they? That's what I mean. Helga was the wife of an American citizen and they had something worth money to. So they had everything to live for. Why would they commit suicide? There'd be more blunt proxy. Who murdered them? We'll return to tonight's adventure of George Valentine in just a moment. People are sensitive to seasonal changes, that's for sure. But you know that the gasoline in your car is also sensitive to seasonal changes? You bet it is.

In fact, you can't buy a better gasoline for today's high compression engines.  Ask for it at standard stations and at independent chevron gas stations, where they say and mean, we take better care of your car. Now back to tonight's adventure of George Valentine. The border between countries that collects the floaters from both sides like flies and dust against the screen. Only some of them don't get away. Like the mid-European Helga and the sad man who coughed. Yes, the couple who at first you thought had entered into a suicide pact, only now you realize they were both murdered. And right in the motel cabin of your client, Bernice Hillary, who has since disappeared. Only who committed murder and why? Look, mister, I told you the truth, didn't I? Why should I lie? I don't know, Janie. Why should you? Well, sure I knew they was married. Helga and that mopey-looking thing. But whatever, she's been married before. I don't see what you've seen in the guy anyway. Did you tell the police, you knew? No, I did. Why not? Why should I? So they didn't ask me. Leave well enough alone, mister, that's what I say. Even if people have been murdered? Oh, yeah, I know. Helga wasn't much, I guess. Had to duck out of her own country for something a long time ago. I don't know what. I don't know anything really except... Well, she was a person. You know what I mean? Near broker Hart, when Clark Gable was married. Sort of liked her. Ah, all right, Janie. She was a friend of yours, period. And yesterday, when she and her husband came in, she gave you her purse and asked you to keep it for her. I wonder why. Well, holy gosh, how should I know? It's a tough town. Well, she was kind of nervous anyway, like maybe the two of them was being followed. I noticed it at the time. Okay, followed. Only I suppose you didn't know why the purse was so important. What was in it? Well, there was a few bucks in it. Don't kid me, that ain't it. He means what was hidden in the lining. Something made out of emeralds and platinum. What? In hell? Well, you don't think I'd be here if I didn't know about it? Oh, no, no, I don't mean that.  I'm sure she wouldn't. It might have been a hair loomer, something like that. Okay, Janie, okay. We're wasting our time. Skip it. George, what are you going to tell the police? Everything I know about it. But I wish you were more. Well, 16 parole to here we are. It's a saddle shop, farm supplies. What? Yeah, it's a pretty good trade, too, doesn't it? I just want to double up on something the police already have found out, the poison. You remember that little box that smelled like Ammons? Yeah. Well, they say it's some kind of stuff used on vermin. And this is the place that sold it. Hold the police, Mr. Valentine. Don't remember much. Hot day for this time of year. Well, did a man buy it or a woman? Afternoon, there, Fred. Nice weather. What did you say? Was it a man or a woman? Uh, lipstick. What?   Afternoon, Mr. Gonzalez. George thought it was a woman. No, man. Man bought it. Okay, okay. Some guy mixed up with a woman.  All these people. What's back there anyway, Mr. Heineck? Harness room. And a few slot machines I could see. That's nice. All right, now listen, Buster. Make it fast. A man bought the poison yesterday. Who was it? Oh, no, that's what I told the police. You mean you run a gambling joint? It's not smart to tell on people. Relax, son. Relax. You had a day for that. I'm blind. Blind? But I didn't.  Old customers, that's all. Recognize their steps. Oh, I see. Okay, I'm sorry. Come on, Brooksy. You're going the wrong way, Mr. Valentine. Harness room is for friends. Oh, I got some money to throw away. Okay, friends. Thanks. Only, Brooksy, maybe you better... Oh, no, there's a ladies' table. Help yourself. George, why are we going... When that door was open, I saw a guy, Angel. The far end of the room, sitting right by the window. A guy with a mustache. Hello, Chum. Huh? Having nice cards? Sir, you're... No. No, I'm not playing now. I am. Come on outside, I want to talk. No, no, sir, excuse me. Never mind that excuse routine again. Don't be tough. Not you. Not a sucker for the life. I said, come on outside. I'm staying here. You say anything. Say it here. Say goodbye. You chump. Stop it and get away from me. No time to argue, senor. I... Take it easy. Just a friendly little spat, folks. That's all. $15. People are upset when things happen. Pretty bad for business. This isn't hush money, friend. We're paying you to take care of this guy. Oh, he'll come to in time. Need a beef steak, maybe. I'll bet he gets hamburger. You're smart, lady. But I better keep that wallet he is for him. Not so fast, Heinrich. He only has traveler's checks anyway. Traveller's checks? Yeah. Might as well go to the city. Let me see that letter. Okay, try your Spanish. Jose? Oh, Jose, that's him. George, Jose. He's a detective. What? Be good reward in it if you can trace for me. Darling, he was on the trail of an emerald brooch. Oh, that's what it was. Emerald brooch, stolen, stolen, George.  From, uh... Anyway, some new pronounce at jewelry store, Mexico City, two months ago signed by an insurance company. That's it. That's so tough, boy. Here's the detective. He must have been looking and bringing Hillary's car for the brooch. Oh, wait a minute. What are you talking about? Jose didn't start swinging till I tried to get him outside, to get him to move, to get him away from his chair by the window. Why? So that's what he was watching. Chromium. That old garage across the alley. George, that's Bernice Hillary's car. How long are we going to wait here? Well, it's a nice, comfortable car, isn't it, booksie? It's dark already. We should tell the police. Oh, well, a board is a funny place. Collects the strays from both sides. Everybody looking for a little excitement or some easy money. Turning into floaters. Oh, George, really, I don't... Listen, out in the alley. You hear that? Key. Yeah, but you don't need them for the garage. No, somebody's got them for the car. Now stay there in the seat, Doctor. All right. Do what I told you. They can't see me in the shadows. Who's in there? Easy, Buster. I'm right behind you. Oh, yeah. Now turn around slow, Dexter. Yeah. Yeah, sure, Villain. What did you do? Steal this car? What happened to Bernice? She drove away in the car this morning. What'd you do with her? Well, I... Booksy, we know the guy who bought this poison was mixed up with a girl. What? What's that? So maybe she loaned him the car. No, no, I think you... The street can't just try to get... Hello, Bernice. Mr. Valentine. Yeah, Mr. Valentine. The sucker you called down here last night to face the music for you. See, you wouldn't have to interrupt your joyride to Mexico City. But I didn't do it. Helgan, the man, it was a double suicide. That's right. That's what the police said. Sure, sure. Only let's have the brooch. What? I don't know what you're talking about. Mr. Valentine, I know it was silly to run out on you like that this morning. I wrote around town intending to come back, but Mr. Dexter here saw me. He said I'd just be in more trouble. And he knew a place to hide the car, so I... Right across the alley from the place where the poison was bought? What poison? The poison that killed Helgan, their husband. It's a little town. I don't know where else you'd hide a car. I hear an old hand around here, Dexter. Only an old hand would know which place has a blind man running it. Convenience, so there wouldn't be any identification. So what? Come on, Dexter, I want the brooch. What brooch? This morning I asked you where Janie lived. You said you didn't know. It took me a little time to find it, and when I found it, I found a certain purse. A brooch had been ripped out of it so fast, part of it stayed behind. In Janie's place. And she said you'd been there before. She's holding his hand against the scope pocket. Stop it! All right. All right, so you got it. Yeah, stolen in Mexico City. Probably by Helga. It was hidden in the lining of a purse yesterday for only one reason, a smuggler that crossed the border, which he did. So people in this country don't even know about it. It was your big chance, wasn't it, Dexter? Whatever it was.  Mr. Valentine, I didn't know. He had it, honestly, I didn't know. Oh, sure, Bernice. Last night, who besides you knew that Helga and the man could be found in your cabin? Well, it was murder, lady. Plain and simple murder. And the police know it. There's a mountain of evidence 14 feet high stacked against the tour. Look, I... I took the boat. But I did it when I thought there was a double suicide. Nobody would know. Evidence or not, I don't know anything about murder. If you ask Maiden, they did his Bernice here. I know it. George! But you said that... I said a lot of things to find out things. Maybe a more complete out-of-sea and some rigmarole will help.  And it's not easy lipstick. You mean Bernice's lipstick? No, no. Neither one of you went into action until always too late. Now, there's somebody else, Fred. Two other people. With perfect motives. And their actions, check. Oh. The man who bought the poison was mixed up with a woman. Had her lipstick in his pocket. Only I happen to remember her combs and changed handkerchief eyebrow pencil, period. What's missing from the list? Lipstick. Whose purse was it missing from? Helga. Yeah. A floater, Bruxy, who couldn't stand to share the profits. And a new husband she married to get in this country knew he couldn't trust her to make a split. Sure. Sure. Helga and the guy with the cough. The double suicides. How else could it have happened? Did you ever stop to think they could have killed each other? A double murder. Time so perfectly it looked like a double suicide. Yeah.  Helga must have fed them to him earlier in the bar. Then she borrowed Bernice's room so he'd have a nice place to dine without being able to yell for help. And that gave him a chance to use the poison he bought from the blind Mr. Heinrich. Helga didn't marry that guy for love. She did it cold-bloodedly to buy herself a ticket into the United States where she could safely dispose of the brooch. To get the man to do it, she must have had to offer the poor groom a 50-50 split. Poor groom? Huh. Hey, the one of them was a kind who could take half of anything and they both knew it. For the minute, they were safely past immigration bang. Well, instead of a bang, they picked the obvious method down here. The one either one might have got away with. Poisoned suicide by just another flow. The border. A sad part of the world. George, I wonder if Bernice and Fred Dexter will ever wake up to what their lives are really for. I think they've already started, Angel. Here's the car, have a kiss. In my pocket. Look out, chicken. You know, George, I was awfully impressed with you. The lipstick. Noticing a clue like that. You noticing lipstick. Well, I'll tell you a secret. I just realized that clue was no good. But it was perfectly obvious. Helga just given it to her husband. Well, now look, any man should have realized. Hey, look, look what was in my pocket. One of your lipsticks. And can you prove when or where I got it? Probably been there for weeks. Women are always doing that. George, you're right. It doesn't prove anything. But explain just one more thing to me, will you? Sure, sure, go ahead. This is not my lipstick. A rolling stone, a rolling wheel bearing, gathers no moss. But when your car's gone 5,000 miles, you can be sure the wheel bearings have been exposed to a lot of grime, moisture, and road dirt. And dry bearings that need repacking are in danger of being ground to pieces by the weight of your car to say nothing of the uneven tire where they can cause. So why not play it safe? And ask for the protective service offered to you at standard stations and at independent chevron gas stations. Here, the experts are specially trained to keep your car's wheel bearings in A1 condition. They use only RPM wheel bearing grease, a lubricant that's tailor-made to seal out harmful grit, dust, and moisture. A lubricant that won't harden in cold weather, won't melt in hot weather. So for your own safety and economy, have your wheel bearings repacked every 5,000 miles. Ask for this protective service at independent chevron gas stations and at standard stations, where they say, and mean, we take better care of your car.

we're happy to be joined by Talus Magno down on the field. Esteban Camino will help us along the way here with translation. Talus, good to talk to you and big news for you this week. Name the young player of the tournament in Conca Calf Champions League. What an honor. Try and describe what that means for you. Describe what it means to win the best player of the Conca Calf Champions League. Ah, I'm very happy. Thank you very much, God, for this opportunity. I didn't win the individual award for a long time, so I worked hard to get to this moment and I'm very happy for the moment I'm living in the club to win this individual award. I'm very happy for the trophy. Obviously, I want to thank God first. It's been a while since I've won an individual trophy, so I'm really happy with all the hard work I've been putting in. And we'll just continue to keep doing that. Really happy to be at this club.  I'm just wondering, do you set yourself a personal target or a goal when you go into the season of goals or how many goals you'd like to score? Yes, I do put goals for myself. In my apartment, I actually have a frame where I set my goals and my targets for the season, and goals, assists, games played. So I work hard every single day to try to accomplish those goals. That's a great answer. That's the answer I wanted to hear. Thank you for sharing that personal information. But here's another one for you, Talish. We see you play at this club, and I'm very happy to be at this club. I'm very happy to be at this club. I'm very happy to be at this club. I'm very happy to be at this club. We see you play in multiple positions already for Ronnie Dilan, for New York City Football Club, but what is your favorite position that you like to play on the field? Is it a wide or is it as a striker? Number nine. For me, my favorite position is to play as a nine or out wide, but happy to play in any position that Ronnie wants me to play in. I can play an 11, a 10, a nine. Wherever he wants, I just want to be the best player that I can be on the field. Humble and versatile. You'll love to see that. Talish, there are 31 players from Brazil, it may be the first one to play on the field, but I'm happy to play in any position that Ronnie wants me to play in. I can play an 11, a 10, a nine. There are 31 players from Brazil in Major League Soccer, five of them play for New York City Football Club. Try and describe the relationship you have with your fellow compatriots from your home country. There are 31 players from the MLS that are from Brazil. Five players here at NYCFC, how is the relationship with your teammates? I'm very happy, it's very good to be with them. It's very good to see the club with a lot of Brazilians. All of them are friends and colleagues. I've already played against them. And knowing them personally and playing at the same club is very good. It's great. We get along great. The chemistry is great. We have played against each other in the past, but to come together and play together on the same team, it's awesome. We're all friends, we're all colleagues, and we get along great with the group here. This might be the most important question you will ever get asked from the media. What do you do for your celebrations, Talish? Do you work out and get prepared for your goal celebrations? Do you study YouTube? Or do you figure out what am I going to do for this next goal celebration? When you celebrate goals, how do you practice your celebration? Sometimes YouTube videos, you practice at home, how do you do it? Since I was little, I really like to dance. So every time I make goals, I thank God. But since I like to dance a lot, I practice dancing. Ever since I was a little kid, I always liked to dance. So first I thank God after scoring the goal, and then I just get my dance and feet on and just go out there and have fun. Yeah, baby. We're going to be doing some dancing up here tonight. If you score again today, that's a great answer. Muito obrigado. Appreciate you very much. Te aprecio. Muchas gracias. Thank you. Thank you so much.

My name is Akim Umi Adishina, President of the African Development Bank. I'm here in the United States to discuss how to further strengthen our partnership between U.S. and Africa, and in particular to be here, I'm delighted at the Institute of Peace, talking about issues of global peace, peace in Africa, issues of conflict and how we can accelerate development by making sure we have durable peace. The African Development Bank was established in 1964. It is today Africa's premier financial institution. It's the only triple-A financial institution that you have in Africa. We couldn't have met all these needs if we didn't have huge capital for us to be able to do so. In 2019, our shareholders, including the United States with great support from the U.S., were able to actually get a capital of the bank increased. It went from $93 billion to $208 billion. So that gave us a firing power just in the right time that we needed to cope with many of the things that subsequently happened. In the case of the COVID-19 situation, it's had huge impacts on Africa. And of course, to rapidly support African countries to cope with that, the African Development Bank very quickly launched up to a $10 billion facility for COVID-19 response. Emergency facilities support the countries to get basic things, whether they are getting themselves personal protective equipment, whether they're, you know, upgrading hospitals, getting access to oxygen and all those things, or simply just getting money to just run their economies because all the economies were shut down. Another area where we supported is with the war, Russian and Ukraine war, which actually led to significant risks for Africa in terms of food security. Because, you know, Africa depended a lot on Russia and Ukraine for fertilizer, for maize and for wheat. And so what the African Development Bank found out was that if we didn't do something quickly, Africa was going to lose 30 million metric tons of wheat and maize from those two countries. We put in place a $1.5 billion emergency food production facility for Africa. You know, I'm a fine believer of the fact that, look, if you've got a sort of a problem, it's not about getting a bowl in hand and going begging for food. It's like, you know, get seed in those bowls and put seed in the ground and grow your own food. And so we put $1.5 billion there to do that. Today it is supporting 20 million farmers in Africa to produce 38 million metric tons of food, which is 8 million metric tons of food more than actually we're going to lose from Russia and Ukraine. The best way to actually reduce instability is to have wealth and make sure that wealth is equitable wealth and that a great part of the population can participate in that. You know, most people forget that. In fact, the farmers work, you know, account for 70% of Africa's population. It's the largest private sector we have. You know, farming is not something, it's not a developer activity. It's a private sector activity. So getting agriculture to work, it's very, very important to being able to get Africa's rural areas to move away from being perhaps today what I would call zones of economic misery because of high level of poverty to becoming zones of economic prosperity. And so one of the ways in which we're doing that as the African Development Bank is mobilizing resources around agriculture to structural change of our economies to make agriculture more competitive and also more of a wealth-creating sector, not just a development activity. Second one, of course, is foreign direct investment. It's very, very important. Well, to get investment in, you need energy, you know, and you need good infrastructure. You know, in the last seven years, the African Development Bank has invested well over $44 billion in infrastructure from ports to rail to digital infrastructure to power, for example, making sure that you can have that because companies got to run on energy. We realize that Africa today has what we call the Africa Continental Free Trade Area. It is the largest free trade zone now in the world in times of number of participating countries. And finally is, we as African Development Bank, we set up something called the Africa Investment Forum. That forum brings together investors around the world focusing on critical opportunities in Africa, but not just focusing on the opportunities, asking the question, what will it take for you to invest in Africa? I want investment landing in Africa like a plane landing on a smooth landing strip, right? So what are the risks that you face? Political risk, market risk, project risk, that's our job, is to make sure that we understand that we can reduce those risks working with others. And it's been tremendously successful so far.


Why is it still, I mean if you were going so well, you wouldn't be talk about other leaders and the challenge and so on and dissatisfaction. I think a lot of it is around bloggers talking to each other and I'm sort of surprised that others have been asking these questions. But they wouldn't be asking these questions if you were doing, you know, if you were doing a really good job as a leader. Well, I am doing a good job as a leader.  No. Of course not. No challenge at all? No. Will you go if it gets to that point? It's not about a challenge. There is no challenge so there's no issue. So these questions aren't coming from within Labour? You don't think it's not a reflection of dissatisfaction? No, I don't. John Keith told us this morning that he thinks you're a nice man. Do you think he's a nice man? I'm sure he's a nice man as well.


Good evening. Thank you for coming out tonight. We know it is not the most perfect night. You think back a year ago, it was very cold and we had a couple of feet of snow on the ground. And I'm not sure it may have been snowing that particular night. So it seems more like spring out there tonight, but just wait a few hours. Just wait a few hours. We'll probably have some new snow on the ground in the morning. We're very happy that you're here for this special 14th annual Christmas Love Light Lighting. It's our pleasure to share these important and intimate names with you. We know that all we have left a lot of good memories of a lot of these folks. And those are precious.  Always be ours regardless of how rich, how poor we are. Those memories are everlasting. And that's a gift from God as far as I'm concerned and I'm not at all embarrassed to say that. So what we simply do is read the names of those on our list. I believe we have about 150, 60 names tonight to share with you. But we've designed it so we can do it a little bit speedier than we have in the past. So we'll see how it goes. And I'm privileged to start. Before I do, I want to thank Judy and Audrey in particular for putting all of this together. Yeah, I'm sure she did. You were there for moral support, right? Good. Robert Anair from Janet LaCrosse. LaCrosse. LaCrosse.  If you're going to correct me, it's not a very good start, is it? First one out of the gate. Well, I can only get better, right?

Hey everybody, this is Brian. Welcome to the ninth yeet tutorial. Today's going to be a pretty simple tutorial, but it's actually a very important one. We're going to talk about static pages.  I mean there's some some links and some images and stuff, but it doesn't really dynamically generate as opposed to say like tutorials which is constantly changing. You know, it's obviously pulling this out of a database. So if you're running a website and you've got a lot of hits, I mean maybe not even a lot of hits, maybe you're paying per CPU cycle or disk usage, you don't want to re-render this page. Like if you've got some PHP in here that's doing some stuff, you don't want to re-render this every time somebody requests it because it's a complete waste of the computer's time. On your little desktop it's not a big deal, but when you throw it on a server and you get hundreds of thousands of people, it becomes a big deal pretty fast. So how do you make a static page? First off, it's actually very simple.  Go to protected, views, and site and you'll see a subfolder called pages and in there you'll see about dot PHP. Open that up and you're going to see, well, it looks like a normal yee view and well you'd be right. It is a normal yee view. There's really nothing you have to do here other than just put it in the pages subfolder. Now, when you look at this you can also see there is PHP and we're calling some yee objects in here like the yee app, something we haven't covered yet. That's the global object for yee. So the point I'm trying to make here is you can actually put yee objects and PHP code in these static files. They're rendered initially and then somebody correct me if I'm wrong. I think they're re-rendered like once an hour or once every 24 hours or text of change or maybe aliens just come out of the sky and render it magically. I don't remember. I should probably research that. So point being this is rendered and it's cached on the disk so it's not re-rendered every single page request. So when you go out to your little website that we've been working on here and you click about notice how the route changes to something different. It's the controller is site and then we're saying the action is page. Now notice how the action is page. Let's actually jump out to the site controller here. You can see, well we can scroll through this whole thing, but you can see down here on the left our actions are contact error index log in log out and actions. Well we actually don't have a page so what's it doing here? It automatically knows because of this and view equals about. So what we're doing is we're saying take this controller, render a static view and this is the view we want to render about. So it's pretty much the same principle. It's just it's skipping over the whole action and it's just rendering a static page. So if you wanted to we could actually just you know make a new one here. Well let's not call tests called static test.php. I cannot type today. There was a new vulnerability that came out called shell shock which if you've ever used like a well I'm using Ubuntu right now but anything that uses bash it's this really nasty little bug that you can get a remote shell and actually execute code and my eyes are bleeding because I'm a patching servers all day. So static test and we're just gonna say yay. Now we made our static view as it's called and we're not even gonna modify the site controller. Now normally you would need an action to do the render and then render the view but we're not gonna do that. We're just gonna go back here and we're gonna say hmm was not found. What did I do wrong here? Ah yes see it's lower case case sensitive here. So if we do this yes. Yay there we go. So sorry about the mistake at the end there but that's all for this tutorial. Really what you need to take out of this is that static pages will save you a lot of money if you're on a third party host and you have a lot of content that never changes.
