Hello everyone, this is Ahmed Dan of AhmedDan.com. Today I will have another episode of unboxing and review video and I'll be opening the robotic vacuum cleaner, which is Eufy RoboVac 30c. So this is not a paid or affiliated review. All my reviews are non-affiliated, unbiased and honest. There are no affiliated links, no nothing. So that way you get totally honest opinion. So let's take a look at this and we'll see how it performs. So this is one of the most popular robotic vacuum cleaners on Amazon and it has almost perfect rating and this is actually a value robotic vacuum cleaner. So it's not too expensive like Roomba or some other vacuum cleaners. So the regular price is about $400 Canadian, but you know I bought it on Black Friday sale for about 50% discount. So I purchased this with my own money. So the box just came like this and you can see some of the features right here. So this works with Wi-Fi and then it has a strong power suction which is 1500 PA and then it has intelligent boost IQ technology and then convenient boundary strips. So what it means that you know you can actually set a limit for the robotic vacuum cleaner and it wouldn't cross the limit or you it wouldn't pass the you know boundary strips. So this is very convenient if you do not want your robot to entran entran some specific areas. So that's a very like you know good feature and the model number is RoboVac30C and I believe this is compatible with Alexa, but we're going to you know take a look at that too. So let's look at some other stuff on here. So there's nothing more here and the model number is T2118 and this is actually made by Anchor which you can see right here. So we'll just start opening up the vacuum cleaner and see what we have inside. Okay, so this is just a filler. I'll set this aside and then we have here a welcome kit and you know there's some sort of a brochure or manual in here. So we'll just you know leave it here and then here we have the vacuum cleaner. So let's take this out and it says here switch on before use which is okay. So I'll just set this aside here and let's look at some of the accessories we have here. So these are everything that you know comes with the vacuum cleaner.  So now let's move on to opening up the vacuum cleaner and take a look at it. Here we have the vacuum cleaner and what I can see right here that this is really slim and very good looking. My previous vacuum cleaner was like you know a little bit thinner I'm sorry thicker than this one. So this one is very slim and very like you know good looking and then this is the top part and let's take out these fillers and then on the bottom we have here the wheels and then the motorized brush and then we have the tray to collect dust or dirt. So we have it right here and then if you just so if you want to open this then you can see that you know this is empty right now. I'm going to just let it run for a few minutes and then we're going to take a look at it how the you know how much dust or dirt it can collect and then we're going to look at the noise. So let's you know start with putting the batteries and everything turn it on and then you know I'll show you the rest when it starts working. Hello everyone I finished setting up the RoboVac so I had to download the RoboVac app from Google Play and then you know it was not that difficult to set up and everything. So I have the option to start the RoboVac from here just by clicking this button for example and if I want to stop that then I can just press it here and then there's another option is that you can you know use Google Assistant or Alexa to turn on or off RoboVac as well. So for example RoboVac on. So you can use Alexa commands to turn on or off RoboVac and you can also use Google Assistant. So I'm just going to run this a few seconds or few minutes then I'm going to you know see how much dust it can collect. Ask RoboVac to pause. In session. I let RoboVac clean the place for about 10 minutes and the noise is not that bad it's not too noisy and I'm going to just you know check how much dust or dirt it collected. Now my place is not really dirty so like you know maybe there may not be too much dirt inside the dust tray but we're going to take a look and we're going to see you know how it worked. So let's take a look at it. Okay so here we have the dust pan and I'm totally surprised. So as you can see that you know although the place looked really clean but somehow it managed to collect some of the dirt and looks like you know it did a good job in about 10 minutes so definitely you know I'm happy with the way it's working. So again that's not a paid or affiliated review there are no affiliated links no nothing. I'm okay with what price I paid so like you know I hope that this is going to last a few years but definitely I wouldn't pay the full price to buy a vacuum cleaner so if you're looking to buy a vacuum cleaner I always wait for sale because this you know these vacuum cleaners they always go for sale on and off that's what I've been noticing. Thank you for watching this video. Forget about subscribing to this channel. Forget about liking this video. There will be more videos coming up so I'll see you shortly. Thank you.


We're going to continue with the team now. Thomas Straff is going to talk to you about swimming. You heard Ben just previous talking a little bit, so now we're going to take a bit more. Thanks a lot. This is probably going to be the first time they actually sound like Dolph Rader when I'm talking. Before I get started, I want to shout out and thank Dave, Thomas and Charles for actually organizing this. I think it's an amazing lineup of speakers, and I'm always impressed how many people actually show up for talks here. So thanks a lot to them. Yeah, let's give it a round of applause. Yeah, absolutely. So what I want to talk about today is Sillum, and it is an implementation for container networking or networking in general, which is leveraging BPF, so the technology that Daniel just talked about. Before I dig into the details, I want to basically give some insight on how we see the future of networking. I'm sure all of you are familiar with SDN and how we got to SDN, but what could be the next step? Is SDN the ideal model in particular for software networking or networking done on the server? And I personally believe that the existing flow table based model works very well for hardware and works well for virtual switches, but it's not necessarily the best model if we have programming languages and we have chip compilers and we have the full flexibility. On a CPU, we can do anything. Why do we want to limit our software to technology that has initially been invented for fixed ASICs? So the future of networking, I see BPF programs getting generated for every individual endpoint, and an endpoint could be a Linux task, a C-group, a VM, a container, a pod, whatever. Anything that basically communicates with our packets can be an endpoint. And when I say return to the program, what I mean with that is we will generate a program that does all the networking. Do you guys hear this echo thing as well? Otherwise I will just do it without the mic. All right, so we generate the BPF program that will do all of networking and security for that particular endpoint. What does that mean? So if a container is sending a packet, we know the MAC address of the container. We know that every packet leaving that container needs to have that fixed MAC address. So instead of configuring this somehow, we basically provide a program that has an if statement in a program that says if the source MAC is not like this specific MAC, then drop the packet and so on for everything. So instead of flow tables, it's actual programs that we leverage. And this is showing the example. On the left, you can see a flow table. This is showing an OBS flow table example. Basically, you either have fixed static flows or you have multi wild card flows, which describe a packet or a set of packets, or a particular one flow, and then a set of actions which are executed for that flow. On the right, you see the opposite, which is a program. And the program defines the behavior for every packet that is flowing through that program. And this example is showing basically the if statement that says every MAC address needs to be the MAC address of the container, otherwise it cannot leave the container. And the second one does an L3 look up through a hash table and then performs an L3 action. So these are just to make sure you understand that the two different models. And to recap, this is basically what Daniel told about, which is how can you attach these BPF programs and actually apply it to networking. Then you'll talk about the tool chain on top, which is pseudo-c code. You can use LVM BPF back end to translate pseudo-c code to BPF byte code. You can then take that byte code, load it into the kernel. The varifier ensures that you're not actually crashing the kernel, and you can then attach it to various hooking points inside a kernel. The ones we actually currently leverage are TC ingress and egress and XDP. So we get the capability of passing all packets that leave a container or go into a container or that we see on the wire on top of a VX LAN and kept device or something like that. We can feed all of them through BPF programs. So this is basically the one BPF program per endpoint visualization. The key element is it's not a single BPF program, it's one BPF endpoint per endpoint, which means that program only contains what is essentially required for that endpoint. To give you a couple of examples, if an endpoint will only ever talk IPv4, we will definitely not compile in any IPv6 supported all into that program. If an endpoint requires part mapping, for example, a task is running on port 8080, but it wants to expose itself with port 80, we will compile in the instructions necessary to do the port translation. If that is not needed, we'll simply omit it out. Another example is if we require a policy enforcement, we'll compile it in. If you don't need it, we'll compile it out. This means that instead of having a configurable pipeline, we have a programmable pipeline that always only contains the minimal amount of code required. So this is the product of all of this. So we've heard several TPTK talks. I'm sure all of you are familiar with the Linux kernel and the networking capabilities thereof. What this is trying to achieve is basically find that sweet spot in the middle, which is the flexibility and the extensibility of user space networking, and also the performance of it, because we can write the program with the exact requirements that we need. This is where a lot of the TPTK interests is coming from, because you get to define exactly what your application is supposed to do with packets. At the same time, we don't want to leave the kernel. We want to stay within the kernel to leverage the hardware abstraction. We want to leverage the safety model that the kernel provides, and we want to have the reliability of the kernel. The kernel provides a BPF verify which ensures a BPF program cannot crash the kernel, because the consequences can be very severe. If you have a bug in your protocol parser and you could trigger that remotely through a packet, a single packet could essentially take down your entire data center. It's definitely something that you want to avoid at all costs. So some mechanism needs to be in place to ensure that the safety can be guaranteed. And the last aspect which makes this very flexible is that these programs, they're not just generated once at start. They can actually be regenerated at any time as you see fit, and you can recompile and reattach them into the kernel without losing any state. This means if something changes in your environment, you need to change the program. You can do so, replace, automatically replace the program without losing any connections. One simple example is, for example, you have a load balancing function which has a particular backend selection which, for example, is using the packet's hash. Now you want to go over and use list connected. You can regenerate the code, and the code will only include the new backend selection, automatically replace it, and all the connection state is still in place. This is because code and state in BPF is separate, right? There's BPF bytecode and there's BPF maps, and the maps contain the state. Another big benefit is that for networking, we have been using, that networking is networking only, right? Networking is supposed to happen on packets, otherwise it's not networking. But if you look at various use cases of networking, one example is connectivity policy. A can talk to B, yes or no. Does it really make sense that if A is sending or if A wants to talk to B to actually construct a packet just to drop in again because of policy? It doesn't make any sense. What we want instead is to actually deny the system call that is causing the packet to be constructed. So we can start thinking outside of the box of additional networking and start connecting concepts such as attaching BPF programs to system calls to trace points and so on and actually provide the actual functionality that the application developer wants at the right level instead of trying to solve everything at networking level. I understand you'll talk a bit about XDP. XDP gives us the ability to run BPF at the driver level. So very close to the hardware. We can achieve the DPTK claim to wire speed in the very same way. So this is definitely interesting for things like load plancing, dropping packets early and so on. This is probably the most obvious one. If you can generate a program, you can actually turn a lot of configuration into constants. So things like the container's MAC address or the tasks, MAC address, IP address, all of that will just become constants in the program and the compiler can optimize them. So literally like an IPv4 address will basically just be loaded into a register before it's written into the packet. So there's no cashmase in looking up the IP address of the container first. It's in the program, the compiler can optimize it heavily. Another one is that we can pick the right data structure on the fly. What does that mean? It really matters. The data structure is a best fit depending on your specific need. If you have service A, service B, your task A, task B, they talk to each other and B has a list of two allowed consumers that actually makes sense to unroll that loop and then code the allowed consumers directly into the code. If you have 10,000 allowed consumers of that service, it doesn't make any sense to unroll the loop. Then you want a hash table. If you have a data structure that's actually collecting data, let's say statistical data, then you're writing through that hash table a lot. So you definitely want per CPU hash tables. So based on these needs, we can pick the right data structure at code generation time. As I said, data or state is decoupled from code, which means if your program is collecting state or is collecting statistics, you can replace the program without actually losing state or data, which means we can, for example, upgrade a data path, add support for initial protocol without a single connection getting dropped. Collect your own statistics. We had huge discussions over the last couple of years in the current environment about what types of TCP metrics should be collected. This is a huge discussion because every single old statistic collected will have a performance impact. BPF and CineM allows you to basically define your own statistics collectors as you see fit because you are the only person that actually pays the penalty for it. You're not imposing the penalty, the performance penalty on everybody else. So whatever BPF is capable of matching, which is essentially everything, you can collect statistics of some sort. This is the CineM architecture itself. So I talked about the benefits of generating BPF programs and so on. CineM itself is decoupled into two components. One are the BPF programs, which are loaded into the kernel. That's the actual data path. That's where the packets are flowing through. And then it uses the ability of an agent written in Go which actually compiles the programs and injects them. The agent itself receives events from various orchestration systems. They could be Docker, local Docker at time. This could be Kubernetes. This could be Mesos and so on. And it will, as it receives these events, will generate programs as required. So if a local container is getting started, we will receive a notification attached to, generate the program, compile it and attach it. We also have several other components which sit on top. The most interesting one is probably the monitoring component which is built on top of the Perf ring buffer. It's a very fast share memory-based ring buffer, which allows us, for example, to send notifications whenever a packet is being dropped. The ring buffer is extremely fast. It can literally support millions of drop notifications per second. So you can monitor your network and policy violations and so on via high networking speeds. And as Daniel mentioned, the structure of this ring buffer is up to us to define. So it's up to us to define the actual metadata that is provided to you. So the current implementation, for example, includes the following metadata when we drop the packet. The container ID that the packet was sent from, all the labels attached to it, the container that is receiving it, the packet length to first 64 bytes packets, all this information is not visible if you use something like TCP dump or you use K-free SKB drop monitor, things like that. We can provide a lot more metadata to help LP debug and troubleshoot your network. Syllom takes advantage of BPF in two ways. One, I talked a lot about the performance benefits, security benefits and so on. We take the flexibility to actually drastically simplify the networking model. So the networking, we basically throw out most of networking principles that are out there. It's a single L3 network, flat, there's no subnet, nothing. Potentially every endpoint can talk to every other endpoint as long as the security policy allows for that. So you don't need to run BGP or anything like that. It's completely flat, right? A lot of people claim L3 only is a huge simplification. I'm pretty sure that people have never run large BGP networks. It's actually not trivial at all, right? We support IPv6, IPv4 and net4.6, which we can translate between IPv4 and IPv6. Address family just doesn't matter anymore, right? You can use whatever addressing you want. The application developer running containers or whatever will not have to care about addressing. Identity-by-security, this is basically a decoupling addressing from securities. Instead of having IP tables, ACLs or net filter ACLs, which match on IPs and ports, what we do instead is we derive the identity of the packet based on, for example, container labels or pod labels or C-group whatsoever, give each endpoint an identity and then we attach that identity to the packet so it gets carried over the network, which means we can enforce security policies decoupled from addressing. This scales extremely well because an identity is just a number. So on the receiving side, it's literally just a hash table lookup that decides whether a packet is supposed to be delivered or not, which means the cost of policy enforcement is the same whether you're running one endpoint, 100,000 endpoints, or whether you have one policy loaded or 10 million policy rules loaded. All the complexity is in the identity generation. We can do transparent service routing, which means we can redirect all packets that go in and out of an endpoint through a user space proxy, which can do service routing, service throttling, API throttling, circuit breaking, and so on. This is literally basically injecting an envoy proxy into every endpoint. We can do transparent end-to-end encryption, which means if you have applications which have non-employment at TLS, we can do the end-to-end encryption for you, which means anybody between you or the server and the other server that is actually receiving it will only see encrypted packets. The packet will only go unencrypted from your task into Cilium, and it will be decrypted transparent again. This is showing a policy example. It's showing a very simple application, local answer front and back ends. We're attaching a label to each of them and basically allowing a user to talk to the local answer, local answer talking to front-end, front-end talking to back-end. Very simple. Each of these will get an identity and will enforce the policy. What we can do on top is we can also add environments, which means you can take that policy and can now apply it into, let's say, a production environment and a QI environment. The way to do that is very simple. You can say any endpoint with the label production, in order to consume that, you also need to have the label production. Many endpoints with the label QA, in order to consume that, you also need to have the label QA. Given this, this is something that is very simple to understand. You can build very simple constraints with tools and with metadata that everybody understands. In the back end, all of these get translated into identities that we can then enforce. The main question I think that everybody might be wondering, given that we have a couple of DPDG talks, is the kernel actually fast enough to do all of this? This is kind of a provocative slide, I would say, because I'm probably doing the same thing as a lot of the DPDG slides are doing. This is showing one very extreme end of the spectrum, which is this is the TCP stack performing endpoint-to-end point on a single node. There's no hardware involved at all. This is using GSO and GRO heavily, but this is trying to make the point that the TCP stack itself on the kernel is not necessarily slow. It depends on what you look at. If you absolutely need to see 64-byte packets on the wire, then the kernel is simply not optimized to handle that. If you care about throughput, if you care about TCP performance in general, the kernel is very well capable of handling that. We can do 70 gigs of TCP traffic on a single core as well. So it's not about kernel versus in kernel versus out of the kernel. It's about what kind of programming technologies that you use to process your packets or whether you want to process every packet individually or whether you apply something like GRO to actually build a giant frame that you can then pass through the stack at once. And with that, I want to leave a lot of time for questions before I go into that. This is the point to the GitHub repo. We just got started a couple of months ago. This is still very fresh. Please also feel free to reach out to me on Twitter. We also maintain a Slack channel. And yeah, one last thing. We do have stickers. I will leave them on the table because there's talks afterwards as well. Feel free to get a serial sticker on your way down. With that, I think we have about 10 minutes for questions here. You made a statement earlier. I read an earlier slide where you said you actually inserted the identity into the packet. So could you elaborate a bit more? Is it where you're putting it in the packet? That's always the first question. So PPF has all the flexibility, so we don't care. Right now, the obvious ones would be looping encapsulation protocol, like extant tunnel ID or GenF TLE. You could also put it into the IPv6 flow label. Maybe you're abusing your own protocols and you have space somewhere. They'll be running quick on top of UDP. We don't care. PPF gives you the ability and the flexibility to inject it anywhere. We just need to know where those bits are stored. You can even store those bits in, let's say, another framework, like a DBDK application, and we can read it. As long as we know where the bits are set, we can use them. Other questions? Yeah. Well, you have to start with something that's poor, right? So, do you mean PPF? Is the future always working? Do you have competition? I don't know. Do you mean we should have PPF from DPF? I think, so when I say this is the future, I think the model is the future, and whether PPF as a technology, as it stands right now, is the future, I don't know. We'll see. I think I see cogeneration and writing particular, like, specific programs to solve, not working in security for a particular endpoint. I see that as a revolutionary step on top of STN, or as the flow table-based STN, I would say. And to answer the second question, which is the second question, should we add, like, PPF to DBDK? Absolutely. I mean, there is a classic PPF user space at runtime already. We should definitely have an EPPF one that runs on top of DBDK, so we're going to have PPF in user space as well. Vincent? Back to the OVS and EPPF, there were some prototypes as well that we know. I think there is a plan to more integrations between, and would it make sense to see them to convert a bit between OVS? So, the question is what about the OVS project that is on the way to actually leverage PPF? As far as I know, what they're looking at right now is actually building a fully compatible replacement for the existing kernel data path, which means the PPF program will actually parse netlink messages and take existing data path flows. Whereas, Cilium is not adopting just the flow table model at all and doesn't even have a concept of flow. So I think there is little overlap and it doesn't make sense unless we just refocus on something else other than a flow table model. Go ahead. So some of the other user space as I've seen for EPPF has been let's say having a P4 front end and then a BTF back end. But that kind of very closely follows the kind of paradigm that you described earlier, which is that you have flows, it's the same but parallel. What you're able to do here is something very different, which is that you hook up to a system card, or you could hook anywhere in the stack. But that would mean that there's a depth set of tools that can talk to something that looks like that. How do you attempt something from, let's say, your registration down to the STN controller, down to the actual platform? Cilium looks very different. How do you attempt to address like that? How am I supposed to repeat that question? No. I think it's an excellent question. The question is there's a process out there which would allow you to write P4 code translate that into BTF, which is then being run. BTF has the flexibility to be back end for P4. And the second part of the question, well, Cilium is aiming for something that is actually not in line with P4 in terms of it's not a pipeline-based flow model. It does not have a configuration and then a runtime mode. How does Cilium cope with the lack of tooling that has been created for flow-based models? Frankly, we just have to create new tooling, but this is a good chance because a lot of the tooling has been written for archimiles that have been around for 20, 30 years. It's not necessarily tooling you require in a cloud environment or in a DevOps environment where frankly, a lot of people don't even have the capability to learn all of networking. The skill sets requires very wide. If you can abstract that and actually provide tooling that is more specific and more abstract and is still sufficient, I think that's the way to go. An application developer would like to see a packet drop notification from this container to this container or from this service to this service. An IP address doesn't tell the application developer anything because it doesn't even know what an IP address relates to in terms of which service that might be. The question is is Cilium capable of adjusting monominipally NSH headers, right? Yep. BPF can manual any packet data. It can also extend modified packet size. It is capable. As I mentioned in the talk, I have actually implemented a full NAT46 implementation of BPF which also requires obviously to re-write the entire header and change the packet size. So absolutely, yes it is capable of modeling NSH headers. I want to point out the limitation though. One limitation is that you cannot have a plain loop in BPF. You need to unroll the loop because a loop would potentially be a problem if it never breaks. Out of the loop you can crash your Chrome, right? On this side, you need to be more creative. You can just code it single. Yeah, absolutely. BPF is not specific to any protocols at all. It's completely generic. If two minutes, I think it's one more question if there is one. Otherwise. Thanks a lot guys. Be sure to get a BPF a Cilium sticker. We have one of the first guys to get one, so I think you should publish it.

What else is there to do on a cold and rainy morning except go in the studio? A student asked if you could page prep a journal for alcohol inks. And before I fully answered, I decided to test it out myself. Used some Kills 2, which you can get in a local hardware store, on a book. I altered both the cover and some interior pages so I could test them out. Multiple layers, dry it in between, but if you dry it too close to the surface, you'll get some bubbling, which I liked for the cover, but not as much for the inside. There's lots of layers. The more color on the page, you might need to do eight to 10 layers to get it fully white. I tested techniques to make sure that they would actually work on this surface and they do not as cleanly as a UPO or mineral paper, but they'll work great for the stenciling and grape techniques that I teach you in today's junk journaling class. Look, it's still raining.


So we're here with Prasad Rampali, who's the Senior Vice President of Solutions Engineering at EMC. We're talking about what we call proven solutions, what EMC refers to as proven solutions. Prasad, what's your vision for this this group, this initiative, which you know started a number of years ago and I think really started off was okay hey we EMC have to be in the business of proving out these solutions and you had to earn your way into the minds and hearts of customers. It's a lot of hard work as you as you well know and so I feel like you've sort of gone through that phase successfully. What's your vision for the for the future of this group? Well thank you for asking that's a great question. So I've been with EMC now for six months and we're launching what we affectionately call as Gen 2 of the solution evolution and Gen 2 has got three key parts. The first is you know you can create solutions all day long but you have to have the ability to scale it across the thousands of customers very quickly. So how do you establish a scale model from the time you create a solution through the direct sales force through the indirect channel in such a way that this penetration model is moving at 6x times the speed is a key focus for us. The second is shift left and the idea here is for us to create game-changing solutions we can have solutions as a wrapper after the fact when we have already launched our products. We have to be in situ integrating. What's that one again the second one? The second one is you know shift left design in solutions with our platforms and the idea here is we want to integrate our platform capabilities with third-party solution frameworks very deeply at the time of launch not six months or two years after the launch and that would require a completely new development model with our products very deep partnerships with key ISVs and technical partners like SAP and really change the game on some differentiated feature. Let's take SAP and as an example do you have a joint lab in Santa Clara with SAP right that's the yeah today we do yes but we want to take that to a whole different level but today it's mostly a showcase kind of environment we want to take it to an R&D joint development environment both here as well as perhaps in Waldorf and we want to be able to demonstrate integration points between SAP's landscape management at the application level all the way with visibility to the intelligent storage system and how we enable that level of policy-based management that could be happening at an application layer that SAP cares about but the infrastructure just adapts to it through that level of integration. So that's the third so scale shift left and the third one is really solution R&D when Todd started this organization about five years ago clearly the focus was to enable sales and I think he did a fantastic job I'm building on that and saying hey let's go shift left integrate solutions with our core products and differentiate features and even go two years out where really look at the next big technology inflection right flash is viewed as the technology inflection for storage today what's the next big one that's coming and really preempt that if you will with appropriate solutions that could be tied with that R&D process going forward yeah I think


alright everybody what is going on welcome back to another video today we're going to look at canadian football we're going to look at the rules we're going to look at my man nin li explains the differences between american and canadian football this is a game of american football and we're going to click on a link that comes up right now they both look the same so they must be the same sport right well no not quite there's several rule differences between the two that makes them almost completely different sports before i explain the differences if you guys want some more detailed explanation of the rules click here for american football and click here for canadian football okay nin explains the rules of canadian football the object of the game is fuel the rules of canadian football explained i can't wait from what i saw in my previous video looking at the differences between american football and canadian football i really liked it and i guess i'm just going to have to watch some to just get the feel of of how how it works and how they play both teams score more points than the opposing team teams are made up of 44 players with 12 players taking the field at any one time the field is 110 yards long by 65 yards wide with two 20-yard end zones at each end white markings on the field help players referees and spectators keep a track of what's going on the game starts with a kickoff the team with possession of the ball is known as the offense and the team without the ball is the defense the job of the offense is to move the ball up the field and score points this can be done by either running forwards with the ball or by throwing up the field for a teammate to catch the offense has given three chances or three downs to make at least 10 yards so the difference so for these three 10 yards or more they will retain possession of the ball whilst giving another three downs to make another 10 yards on your tv screen you'll see this graphic this tells you what down the team is on and this tells you how many yards they need to make if you're also watching this on tv they will also show you the lines that they need to cross in order to make their downs okay so these these are some very very basic rules but but i appreciate the defense's job is to stop the offense moving the ball by tackling this includes pulling them to the ground stopping them from moving forward or forcing them off the field if the offense fails to move the ball 10 yards within three downs the ball is given to the defending team at that point the defending team will then bring on their offensive players and try and move the ball in the opposite direction so that they can score you'll most likely see the offense kick the ball away on third down you know what rugby league may have been made from canadian football how was i don't want to get this wrong how was how was canadian football invented while canadian james naysmith invented basketball americans american style football also came from canada after americans played a game developed in canada huh let me read this in canada the term football may refer to canadian football and american football collectively or to either sport specifically defending depending on context the two sports have shared origins and are closely related but have some key differences rugby football in canada originated in the early 1860s and over time the game known as canadian football developed there you go rugby football rugby rugby in canada originated in the early 1860s and over time the game known known as canadian football developed i'm proud to be a rugby player i love it for the other team to score the teams will usually have three different units of 12 players that come on the field at different times they include the offense these players will usually come on the field when they have possession of the ball the offensive unit consists of these positions the quarterback is the most important player on the field and he's the one who decides to pass the ball at the field handed off to a team mate so that they can run with it or decide to run with it himself the offensive line positions are usually responsible for protecting the quarterback the wide receivers and slot backs are responsible for running down the field to catch the ball thrown by the quarterback the running back and fullback are responsible for running with the ball up the field the defense each players will usually come on the field when the other team has the ball the defensive unit consists of these positions the defensive line is responsible for moving past the offensive line the linebackers stop running backs coming through the middle and they're also responsible for attacking the quarterback the quarterback's try and stop the wide receivers and the safety's try and stop the pass up the middle of the field special teams special teams are specialist players that come on the field when there's a kick involved within the special teams is a mixture of offensive and defensive players mixed with either a punter or kicker for offense or a punt returner bang off the lift now you know what all the do you guys know what a bang off the lift is i'll show you within the special teams is a mixture of offensive and defensive players mixed with either rip ah i fucking missed it within the special teams is a mixture of offensive and defensive players mixed with either a punter or kicker for offense or a punt returner for defense now you know what all the plays do and how the game is played but how do you score in canadian football there's five different ways of scoring number one touchdown really the main way of scoring is via a touchdown if the ball is carried into the end zone area both throwing court in the end zone this is the touchdown and is worth six points unlike in rugby you don't need to touch the ball down onto the ground all you have to do is cross the line with the nose of the ball to score number two extra points once the touchdown has been scored you have the option of kicking it through the uprights for an extra point or trying to pass the ball into the end zone again for an extra two points most teams play it safe and go with the one point number three a field goal at any time the team with the ball can kick the ball between the posts and over the crossbar and you can get a point for clearing the end zone to do this they must hand it to a teammate who will hold it onto the ground ready for the kicker to make the kick a successful kick scores three points nice kick number four safety if the defense tackles an offensive player behind his own goal line the defending team scores two points number five rouge unique unique football a rouge more commonly known as a single scores one point for the following three scenarios if the kicking team misses a field goal and it goes out of bounds if the kicking team punts the ball out of bounds through the end zone or if a defensive player is tackled in his own end zone after a kick each of these scores one point our game is played in four 15 minute quarters for a combined playing time of 60 minutes high score at the end of 60 minutes wins there are no ties in canadian football so over time he just didn't bang off of me sorry to determine the winner is that it is that all i need to know well you're almost there but canadian football is filled with lost finally running back a few more of them before you watch or play a game for example fumble if a ball carrier or passer drops the ball that's a fumble any player on the field can recover the ball by diving or running with it the team that recovers the fumble gets possession of the ball interception an aggressive defense can regain possession of the ball by catching or intercepting passes that are meant for players on the other team both fumble recoveries and interceptions can be run back into the end zone for touchdowns incomplete pass if a pass intended to receive a Instagram first it is ruled an incomplete pass a down is wasted and play restart from the spot of the last down can you imagine if an incomplete was actually a live ball and if the ball hit the ground you could still play that's what rugby is that's the essence of rugby it's live all the time anything can happen at any moment you know i'd love for that to be a rule but it just can't be i guess not see if a player breaks one of the rules referees will throw flags onto the field they will then determine who made the foul and how many yards his team should be penalized timeouts if a team wants to stop the clock to regroup take a break or discuss strategy they are allowed one timeout per half each timeout plus 60 seconds and players get a break of 14 minutes at half time this is all up to taken but once you start playing or watching i was actually watching the pictures i didn't listen to anything about it i didn't listen to anything just me after we have to listen to it again at one timeout per half one timeout 60 seconds and players get a break of 14 minutes at half time this is all up to taken but once you start playing or watching Canadian football the rules will become clear if you found this video at all helpful please like share with your friends rate and comment it takes me ages to make one of these videos and good karma is always appreciated enjoy Canadian football i will i will man thank you thank you you have 55 000 subs you know what i'm going to subscribe and i'm going to give you a like thank you my friend

My name is Vino Budeves. I'm the Academic Director of the Bachelor of Entrepreneurship and Business Innovation at Tilder University. And I would like to use the following minutes to introduce to you why the university has decided to launch this new program that is to start in August 2020. If you ask why do you want to introduce these new bachelor's, the answer is very simple. Because we know that young people are hugely interested in learning about, but especially in preparing for, an entrepreneurial career, a career in which they will leverage innovation to create value, not only to make money, but also to make the world a better place. Now, many young people are inspired by examples of others who show that through your personal initiative, you really can bring new stuff to the world. Oh, this is the cooker, a boiling water tap created by a Dutch inventor called Henry Petrie, who at the end of his career working in an R&D lab at Unilever, decided that it was crazy that in his lab they were able to produce instant soup, but that you would still have to wait a few minutes for your water kettle to boil the water needed to prepare that instant soup. He actually argued there is no instant soup until we have instant boiling water. He spent years to make the dream of having a tap that when you would open it would produce boiling water, a reality. It's now a company that sells its products all over Europe. It's usually successful, but it started with one person having a vision that something was needed and that he could make it happen. A similar example is Fatboy, a Dutch company that started selling beanbags and made it the foundation also of a big company in this case that sells its products globally. And the cool thing about Fatboy is that the founders of the company did not invent this idea of a beanbag. Actually, they took the idea from a Finnish inventor and they got the rights to commercialize that inventor's product across the world. So as an entrepreneur, you do not necessarily need to come up with the idea yourself. You may be able to spot an idea and make it happen. And Fatboy started with just beanbags, but one product usually is a pretty shallow foundation to build a company. So over the years, they have added lots of products to what now is a very broad portfolio that allows the company to be as successful as it is. Cool Blue is a Netherlands-based online retailer, a local amazon.com, but then different. And the story of Cool Blue, at least from an entrepreneurial perspective, is very intriguing. Three young guys in their bachelor's studying business felt that their study program was too distant from the real world. And they decided to start a company next to their studies to learn how to do business for real. And for them, it became a remarkable journey of entrepreneurship. They never finished their studies, but they have created one of the largest online retailers in the Netherlands. One is very successful. They're expanding into Belgium and they really try to do things differently from the others. We know that many young people are interested in entrepreneurship. They're intrigued by the success of others. They learn about the failures and very often how successful entrepreneurs had to go through a few failures before they finally became more or less successful. They like the dynamics. They're inspired by the success and the initiative of others. But when they would be looking for a degree program that would prepare you for entrepreneurship, it would be hard to find a program that would really support you in that endeavor. When we launch the program in August 2020, it will be the first university level bachelor's in the Netherlands that has this razor sharp focus on entrepreneurship and business innovation. There is other programs that you could do like industrial design engineering or business administration. But in none of these programs would the focus be on, well, how do you come to an idea and how do you transform the idea into a start-up and how can you grow a start-up into a large company? Those are the things that this program resonates about. It's not studying entrepreneurship because it's intriguing. Now in the program you will study entrepreneurship, you will learn about entrepreneurship, but you will especially prepare for entrepreneurship through the courses that we offer in this curriculum. That makes the program unique not only to the Netherlands. There's very few programs in Europe delivered by research-oriented universities that ensure that what you'll learn is rooted in solid research findings. And we think we really have a nice program, but it's new. We know that entrepreneurs like pioneering, they don't mind being the first. Would you like to pioneer? If so, then please register to this program and we look forward to welcoming you in Tilburg.


The interview of that day. Tuwajote vizu oresundia? Kavisa. Okay, start. Yes. Eh... I introduce the ladies, you introduce the gentlemen. I introduce Wanga Pibadu. Okay. Sawa. All right. In studio with us, we have the amazing, the beautiful, the incredible dancer. Ya ni akitimbe wa too hivi, you guys are like Allah. You see what I mean? I see what you did there. And then now, smoothly moving over to the handsome gentleman, akifanya too hivi, finished, ladies finished. And his name just happens to be Mr. Allah. We'll find out shortly why he is called Mr. Allah. Thank you very much. Yes. Hi guys. I hope it feels special. We didn't even rehearse it, if I knew it. All right, introduce yourself to the people. Me first? Yes, please. Okay. Hi everyone. I'm Eliza, Eliza Brandogs. People also call me Liz. I'm a dancer, model and basically hiker fan. My handle on IG is Eliza.brandogs, so just my name. On TikTok, Eliza Brand. And on YouTube, which is still in process, also Eliza Brand. Aspiring content creator. I wonder if you can say her name, but if you see the spelling of the said name. Try, try. Okay, after this. Let me know in the comments. On air, as you are. My name is Chris, I'm on social media. I go by Mr. Allah. I'm a content creator and I'm up in the Kenya. Why is your name Mr. Allah? A couple of years ago, when I was first getting into content creation, there was a trend going around on TikTok. Allah. Allah. What? Allah. Allah. It's one of those first, I don't know, I guess statements of the shang that I caught on to and then a text thread that I was in got posted on TikTok and every text is like Allah. What are you talking about? Huh? What? Allah. I don't understand. Huh? And so everyone in the comments are just like, ah, you're Mr. Allah. Mr. Allah. Thank you. I hope you're not bored. I love everybody. It's stuck. It's stuck. Okay. All right. So what kind of content do you create for the people who have never been seen? I do a whole bunch of different content. It really just depends on what mood I'm in, but a lot of content lately has been Swahili because I'm living in Kenya. So I've been doing a lot of tribal songs as of late. Wakisi, Obama, Obama, Obama. He has a video. He has a video. He has a video echo to you. Okay. No, it just, the content creation, it just depends on how I'm feeling that day. Like, you know these, these Kenyan content creators, some of them are very crazy. Kicha. Kicha. And so I'll find videos trending. But he's calling me, but it's okay. Kicha. Yeah. But no, I just find, I'll find videos online that I think are funny or that other people are doing that I can see that if I do it, me being a mzungo. I know a lot of people will get a laugh out of it or a little kick. And that's what I'm doing. That's, that's all I do. That's what I, I love to do is to make people laugh. So if my content can make anyone laugh, that's what I'm here for. Let's, I'll tell you a secret. Let's. Masai thinks he can dance. I don't know if it's good. Please. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Let's take two. Yes. Masai. Remove things. Dance. No, Masai he can dance. Oh, you've added things. You just told me to remove things. So. Masai he can dance. All right. All right. No, I try. Coach of Masai. I try. At first it was worse but I got better. With time. With time and then I started teaching them now. So I became their teacher. It's okay, Masai. It's okay to be in denial. My question for you is, do you have a particular genre of dance that you do, do you do? Because you're here, do you do a lot of Afro pop or is it just, are you fixed on one particular genre? So I've started dancing when I was 12, 13. Wow. And my roots is basically in ballet contemporary chess. I only started doing Afro dance. So was onto a ma piano, those kind of things. October 2021. But then became very consistent in it just from end of October to like May 2022. Then I went back home and it stopped. And now since one month, one and a half month, I'm back in Kenya and I'm pushing it again. Because I really love the style. And I also had very good dance teachers. Like who? I saw Clara in one of your videos. Clara is a friend of mine with who I danced at Chiluba. So basically I got introduced to Afro dance first at Chiluba, the one. So at his dance classes. And then I just caught the vibe and I was like, this, this, this is it. I need to stay, I need to. From him, as I did as onto. And then I started also going to Artica dance. From Amuna. Amuna is also giving me private sessions. So that really helped for me to like grow as a dancer. Also followed classes from Afro king beast. So he's more into a ma piano. He's from doing dance and from Meshak who is doing Afro house. So I really started to pick a bit from every Afro dance style I could. Since I'm back, I'm also trying new stuff like heels. It's been a process, but I like it. I like it. Yes. It seems you're very, very intentional with it. And if you pick enough from different people, then you can create your own thing, right? That's also in progress right now with the dance classes. Someone is pushing me to choreograph myself. Very frustrating, but we're getting there. Well, I've come to one of your classes. Me too, I've come. Well, sky audience, that's why. No, I was about to say, can you teach me? What do you want to teach me? What do you want to teach me? Dance. Show me something. The pressure is getting wasa. The pressure is getting wasa. It comes right into my mind. What were you guys discussing? No, no, nothing. Did you have a... No, listen. She talked about hiking. I was very particularly interested in that. So, where have you hiked? I'll allow it. So, in Kenya, there's like a hiking community, let's drift. And they basically explore new places all over Kenya. So, they do durimedia, limuru, several places, very beautiful. Where you basically cannot come as a general tourist unless you're with them. So, it can include climbing even or walking over those rivers on stones. And then sometimes occasional falling, losing your sunglasses in the water, tripping, finding them back. She just put them in the question of how they should be done. But it's fun, yeah, it's a lot of fun. It's nice to be nature to have like the peace and feel small as a human also. I like nature too. Do you have hobbies, Chris? Yeah, my run. My long distance run. You're Kenyan, Nani. He runs, you run. Where's the last time he ran you? Yeah, tell us. He's more Kenyan than you. No, I think that was yesterday when I was running away from the range. Okay, okay. But I still ran. Also, I've run a lot of things. I've run for class president. I've run. Me too. Yeah, I've run out of time. There, there. It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay. I also oil paint. Oh really? There are a couple of spaces that offer. Do you understand Swahili? I don't understand Swahili. I don't understand Swahili. Okay. I know way more than when I can speak. You're literally Kenyan. Most Kenyans nowadays say they can hear their mother tongue, but they can't speak it. And here is Kenyan Kenyan. Keep yogi. Alright, so there are these spaces that have, there's one I saw called sip and paint. So you sip on something as you paint and then something else that had nothing to it's sipping, but they were also painting it. So I could forward those to you if you're interested. I feel like a plug already. Okay, alright. Are your paintings art for sale? Mm-hmm. Oh. Ah, what can people get? Yes. They can find, I don't have, I need to set up a website for them honestly. On my social, on my social medias, I have, I have most of them posted. So they can go see them and if they want to buy one, they want to commission because I do portraits, landscapes, steal a life, I do everything. If Liz wanted an image of herself as someone in her house, would you be able to do that? Yeah. Without problem. No problem. I can show you the portraits I've done on my phone after this interview. Yes, yes. Liz, have you ever been in a music video? Have you danced for music videos or other projects that, you know... Yes, in one. Tell us about it. When was it? That was last, last year, last year in January for the Luchi, the music video Blanda. Ah, yeah. You in the video? Yeah, I was behind the scenes helping. I was assisting with the production and everything. Okay. And then it wasn't planned to be in it, but then, well, so Chilubai is like the producer of it. So he was like, ah, just get in. So yeah, that was pretty funny. It was really nice to be, to be part of that production. Also we'd like the last one who came out now. I'm not in it, but I was behind the scenes. So yeah, really nice to... So she's more behind the scenes person? You like being behind the scenes or being in front of the camera? Both, but I need to be prepared to be... In front? In front of the camera. Are you a perfectionist that you have to... Yeah, and she's like... Secret. Yes, yeah. And I'm also a bit insecure sometimes. So that also... Like when I'm with the right people, I'll go stand on a table and go for it. But like I need to have the... High energy and the support to actually have the courage to go and... Oh. Two weeks to come just for the show. Two weeks. Yeah, two weeks. One week. I only knew one week from before and you lied. Yeah, one week. But that's the... Men can lie. Okay, let's ask one. Men can lie. Ala? Men can lie. I like. Are you saying it as an observer of men or... You also say you lied too. Are you saying that? Are you saying that some of your blood... I think we need to switch to the next topic now. I don't want to be in that hot seat. Pressure. The pressure. Okay. Would you like to be in another music video before we go back to Chris? Yeah? I would like to. I would like to be in another music video before we go back to Chris. Okay. Okay. So... As a current manager... All you have to do is just follow instructions. Why do you have to take it all the way to the top? I don't want to be in another music video. Hey, this is a manager. I don't want to be in another music video. Okay, so... Go on her social media platforms and ask if she wants to appear on a music video and then we'll discuss on the contract later on how much. Insist on how much. Thank you, manager. Very good job. Chris, when did you start with the vernacular? What inspired you and what... Okay, let me first explain it to them. When you go to his TikTok page and these particular ones that he does in vernacular, there's one he's done. Kisi. Inginia, akamba. And he knows the words. They are a couple. When you start doing kamba, what do you do? Wait, I've seen a couple of kamba videos. I don't know how he does it because mimi nimekapa for how long na mukidipatia nini akikamba I don't think I will do what he did. So where did the interest come from and how do you do it so far? The interest comes from, I guess a lot of my friends that I've made here in TikTok they do similar content and I was this one to I guess make my portfolio more diverse instead of just being me dancing or doing something new. You dance too? Not good, not well. You have better to give you the floor. I was waiting for the line. Maybe in Zungo, alright? I'm that type of... It's a stereotype. Everyone can. I got two left feet. No, it's true. Kato ko liupot blak? No. Proceed to... I can see that's why. I don't know exactly what gave me the start to start doing tribal songs like that. The first one is that Kisi song that went viral by Culture Productions. I found the song, I was just scrolling on TikTok and I found it and for some reason the words got stuck in my head so they put the phone up on the ring light and ten seconds later boom video was done. But after that, once it went viral I realized that's what a lot of people they want to see me doing tribal songs, tribal languages because I'm pretty quick at learning languages. If I was able to have a teacher with the tribal language I would be able to speak Kisi no problem for Kamba. How many greetings can you do Let me try one. Wacha That's Wacha Usema Bulae I don't remember what Wacha is off the top of my head. Pretty much. Dagoma. No that's hard. Dagoma That's hard. That is really hard. I don't want to think of something easy. Keep them coming and I'll think of something easy. What tribe is that? Masai. I don't know much Masai. The majority I know would be Lul it would be Lul, Kisi, Kamba and then after that would be some small Kukuyu. But I can't have a conversation in those languages. I don't have a teacher. Everything I've learned all the languages is all by myself. Even the Swahili. So the guy with the suit who just came in here a couple of seconds ago had a very hard time trying to express himself in English but Obama you've had. He knows how to relate things Uso tense. Hashtag a social friend. Obama na kupenda suti like that city is where. Yes. I hope he naskia Obama. We're almost running out of time. Organize yourself. You miss the panda, it's okay. You know if you'll have left. So it's about that time that we go into a social break and today I have a brand new game for you guys. Actually I'm very glad that we have actors and want to answer about yes she can act. And the game is called the improv game. So what I'm gonna do is say a sentence. No, we're gonna pair up maybe the two of you and then the two of us and then you say a sentence to your partner like you're having a conversation and then someone from the other group is supposed to say change. So when you say change you're supposed to change that sentence to something closer like change a word from that sentence or refresh that sentence. Give us an example. Who's gonna say change? I'll say it. I like your jacket. I like your shirt. Change.  Just anything. You change the subject and how long can that go? Okay let's do this again. Nice shoes. Nice jeans. Your jacket is nice. And you can change as much times as you want. If you want to speak you can say change again and then I'll change my sentence again. Okay one more try for the example. I like your blonde hair. I like your beard. I like your glasses. Change. Your glasses I like. Change. The weather is hot. Come on. You have gotten it? Great. Who's starting? Us. Tell your shoes.

They say if you come to this country no one leaves without madness. The madness I have from this country will never leave. I get that. It's the same on my side. Why? Allah. That's a problem. That's a problem. Well done. You want to do another one? What type of phone is that? It is a heavy phone. Change. The phone is heavy. It's pink. It also has a very smooth face. Change. The face of the phone is very smooth. Why is the blue tone? Why is your face like that? Why? Why? Face is why. Like that. Does it have wifi? Why did you talk about the laptop or something? The laptop is here but the phone is here. Change. The phone is here but the laptop is there. Why do you have black framed glasses? I like my glasses. Change. Do I look cool in these glasses? Change. Why did you start wearing glasses? My eyes when they started hurting. Why do your eyes hurt? Change. Your eyes feel hurt? Yes, sometimes they do when I look at the screen. Why do you like holding your hair up? Looks nice only. Why do you have long hair? Change. Your hair, why is it long? It's long because it grows. Change. My hair usually grows. Change.

Only phones are catering. Yes.


We want Marines to show that physical mentality, to make contact, and they won't give ground and protect what we have. So really, that's what that is. We still want that physical mindset, but we also want to remember the whole mission of not only the weapons, it's the de-escalator. In real life, they'll probably get rocks or worse thrown at them. Sometimes they'll use Molotov bottles, basically anything that anyone can get hands on. So this is to give them confidence in their gear to know that they will be protected. The reason why this is important is some of the mission sets that they might be able to respond to are embassy reinforcement, also I would say new operations. This is a little bit of a different mindset, like I said, we want to de-escalate the situation. So hopefully we show a use of force, that hard target, that makes people go away. And if we do that, then we did our job.


Hey weirdos! So people ask me once in a while if I have any warm-up routine that I do before my voiceovers and I don't really do a like a vocal warm-up. I've never really felt like that that has all been all that necessary, but I do a little bit of an exercise in order to kind of limber, limber my tongue, my lips and everything in order to to get ready. So I thought I'd share it with you here. By the way, I apologize for the hair and the beard I just now woke up. So this is a good time for me to get started, but here we go. This is what I do before each session. Fun, huh?

Today's guest is Courtney DeBay from Press Galame. Courtney, welcome. Thanks for sharing your story with us. Can you tell us a little bit about what it was like for little Courtney growing up? It was okay until a little later, probably about 10. I had an abusive stepmom and my dad worked all the time. She did like my mother, so therefore my mom was not really around at that time. So that was interesting. Yeah. And was that physical abuse? Yeah. Yeah. And did you feel like your dad knew about it? Sometimes, but I also knew that he worked a lot and didn't really know the details, I guess, of that. And we were all too young to really tell him what was happening. Yeah. So at 10 years old, how did you deal with that? Well, I wanted my mom and she wasn't there. So that was hard. And when I was able to go to my mom's house, I didn't want to ever go home after. Yeah. But... So what was it like in school for you? Hard, although that was my escape from my reality at that time. Yeah. So they divorced and we moved to Ashland, my freshman year of high school. And I started high school there, and that's when it took a turn. That's when I experimented with alcohol and weed and pills. That was your freshman year? Yeah. Now, had you known anybody in Ashland at the time? Not really now. So what did it look like when you were using and drinking? Was it a small group of people? Were they the big school parties? Yeah, school parties on the weekends. I met a group of kids when I first moved up there. Got in a relationship with one of them, and it was like a party scene every weekend. And I was fun. Now, was that strictly alcohol and weed, or was that...? Yeah, but I was offered pills a few times and I took it and I liked it. Yeah. So, do you remember what that experienced? What was it doing for you? I didn't have to think about reality. Yeah. Yeah, everything that I had about two years up to that point. And, you know, starting a new school took all the anxieties away from that. So were you able to graduate from high school eventually? No, I did not. I dropped out three months before graduation. And what led to that? I was pregnant with my oldest son and ended up having complications with that. And I didn't go back. So, as your pregnancy progressed, did you continue using? Yes. And so what eventually happened with your first pregnancy? So I had him and my addiction after I had him is like when it really took off. It was more than just like the parties on the weekends. And I knew that I wasn't able to provide him a good life. So I brought him to my grandparents house and left him in the middle of the night and he was three months old. And how old were you then? I was just turned 18. You left him with your grandma? Yeah. Knowing that you would probably have a better chance? Yeah, to be safe. And what was your life like that you knew that that was a better option? Well, I was just partying all the time still. I knew that I had a problem that I couldn't get right over on my own. And dragging him here there and everywhere, you needed a better life and I knew that. It must be a very hard decision. Yeah.  But we always say in recovery self-awareness and gives us the power to identify what's going on with us and do something about it. But when we're in addiction and we have that awareness that this is not going well and I need to do something. You know, it's just, it's not something everybody does. So thanks for sharing that as part of your story. So what happened after you went away and now you didn't have that responsibility? It got, it went a lot deeper than what it ever had been. And actually that's when I found heroin because I knew that I did something. I knew it was right to do what I did so he didn't have to live that life. But not knowing I guess why I had done that and the guilt from it. So there was still some shame and guilt? Right. Yeah. Knowing that I couldn't do it, it bled down when I died. Now see I actually have a similar experience with, I had three children and I never got, so I stayed high the entire time they were growing up. My daughter was 16 before I ever quit. But my middle son, when he was a freshman, we lived in Massachusetts. And we were moving back to Maine because in the previous three months I towed four vehicles. I couldn't work, I couldn't earn money, I couldn't survive in Massachusetts. So we had to come back to northern Maine. But my son was on the basketball team, on the football team. And he wanted to stay. So leaving him behind, I felt at the time he was at, at least he was going to be out of there, you know.   Did you have any other children? Yeah. Four years later I had another boy. And then when he was three months old I was already pregnant with another child. And so they were really close in age. Yeah. So what ended up happening with your other two children? Well, I was a functioning addict as, you know, we all kind of believed to be. Right. Until you're not anymore. And DHS stepped in and took them in 2018. And how old were the kids? Three or four. So do you feel like they remember life with you at that age before they? Yes. Yeah. And you said eventually the desire to be reunited is what led you to, to be reunited. Right. Yeah. Yeah. So what does that relationship look like today? It's good. It's very good. It's nothing that I would have pictured it entering rehab. Right. But yeah, it's good. I have them twice a week and every other weekend. And things are good. And you mentioned they're in foster care. Yes. And do you have a relationship with the foster care? Yeah. Absolutely, yeah. Yeah. She is like my best friend. And for us it's not, it's never been like a fight. We do all holidays together. We do birthday parties together. We do, you know, the kids were just away on vacation.  We don't choose to go to rehab when things are going well for us. Right. We're seemingly going well. Yeah. So what was going on in your life at that time that made you decide finally to get some help? After losing my two youngest, at first it was very, like I knew that they were going to leave and it wasn't really a problem until it really hit me. And instead of using every day to fill the like physical dependence that we all, you know, that I had on it, it was like using to die. Like just hopes that one of those times it would be the end. Yeah. Did you ever try to commit suicide? Using yes and was not successful. Yeah. And, you know, it was the same way for me. I didn't want to kill myself. Right. I didn't want to die. But I didn't feel like life was worth living. Yeah.   Yeah. And I knew that that would probably take me. Yeah. And every day I waited.  Right. But I really wished it would just happen. Yeah. You know. That's where I was. Yeah. And had you had any overdoses? No. Not up to that. Up to that point now. I can understand, you know, once your kids were taken away, you didn't want to live anymore. Yeah. And you just use as much as it would take to feel better, numb out or probably as much as you could afford. Yeah. And just being where we are today, that was never, I never seen that. So that's enough. Yeah. And, you know, it's funny that we always think we know what we want and what it's going to look like when we get it. Right. You know. And then a lot of times we realize we've got what we want. It just doesn't look the same. Right. Yeah. And so that relationship with your kids, it's not exactly the way you pictured it. Exactly. It's not the end goal. Exactly. But for now it's something. Right. I'm glad you get that opportunity. Yeah. And that, you know, you're using that. You know, today it's almost five years in. And it took a while. But he called us. It was a year and a half ago now. He came back from Japan after being over there six months. He ended up meeting a girl online, got out, moved in with him. And they got married. And he's like, I'm done being mad at you guys. I want you to meet my wife. I want you to be part of our lives. And I was like, really? He's like, yeah, I see you're doing well. Yeah. And that's what I tell parents today.  And you're never going to get it done. Yeah. Don't worry about that. Yeah.   Yeah. They're just doing good. Exactly. You know? And they're going to want to reach out. Yeah. A position are you going to be in when they do. You might not get him back, but maybe he'll come back when he's old enough. Right.  You know? But you know, it's just, somebody says something and you're like, yeah, let's do it. Yeah. And I've done a lot of things I'm not happy about. But there's nothing that I'm ashamed of still today though. Yeah. Because I did what we did. Yeah. You can't take it back. No. And if you live without shame, there's never any growing or healing from that either. Right. Yeah. And I mean, that's where the growth comes from. Yeah. When we can look at ourselves, talk about it, share it with other people, and it doesn't make us cry. Right. It doesn't make us hate ourselves. Yeah. It doesn't make us, you know, feel like we did that. Mm-hmm. And then we know we've grown a little bit. Yeah. Right. And I think it's important that we acknowledge it too. Yeah. You know? And all the time, it's those little things. Yeah. If you paused before you said what you were about to say and said it differently. Well, that's a long heartache in my life. You know, I had to learn how to accept myself for who I am. Yeah. I'm not in control, you know? I drove the car into the ditch every time I had the wheel. Yeah. You know? So learning that lesson and, you know, learning that I don't have to control the world. Right. You know, I don't have to decide what somebody else is doing or if they're doing it right. It's on them. Yeah. You know? Either they're going to get it or they're not. And, you know, I have no personal stake in that. Right. So letting that go and just worried about me knowing that I don't have to do everything right and perfect every time. Yeah. You know?  Right. So what does it take for this program to really get in for you? Well, you're in Canada with Jesus, your first one. When I got there, I thought the people were crazy. I thought it was all crazy until I had my first interaction. And, you know, reading the Bible, I never understood a word that it was saying. Right. So it took a while for that too. But once you get it, there's no turning back. Right. And that's a lengthy program. Oh, yes. And you said you graduated. How long were you there? Twelve months. Twelve months. My program was a six to nine month program and I got kicked out after three months. And mine wasn't... Mine was a tough program. Milestone rehab in Old Orchard Beach, you know, up to 16 men living in one place together learning to live in harmony with 16 strangers, dealing with your triggers every day and not wanting to, you know, not being able to reach out for a substance. And you were able to grab on to the Bible and, you know, learn things about your life and about life in general. Is there anything that stands out to you that you've learned while you were there at the rehab? Yes. Okay. You have to actually pick one shortly after you get there. And actually I picked it and usually people will pick one and it changes as their sobriety and relationship with Jesus changes but mine kind of stayed the same still does. Yes. So as people grow they learn something new. Right. So what was the verse you chose? Second Corinthians 12-9, my grace is all you need, my power works best in weakness. Can you explain what that means for you? For me, well, when I had to pick it out in the beginning, it was like, you know, when we are weak, he is strong and then I have just kind of carried that with me the whole time because not every day is easy. No. You know, we think we get sober and life is just going to be okay and it's not, but it's still the same today as it was three and a half years ago. Yeah. And the only difference is we're not reaching for something to get away from it. Right. We have to go through it. We have to feel it. Right. And I don't know about you, but you know, I did these things so I wouldn't have to feel. Right. You know, so not having that option or not choosing to go that route now, you know, sometimes can be, it can make life seem heavy. Yeah. You know, and you know, I do believe in Jesus and God and it took me a while. I didn't want to go that route. You know, when I went to rehab and started going into the 12 step programs and they started talking about a higher power, I thought I was doomed. Yeah. Because I would never accept it. Yeah. And then I walked on the beach down at Old Orchard, standing there watching the waves come in and you know, they were getting closer and closer to my feet and I was just noticing how big the world actually is. Yeah.  You know, so that it came over me and I ended up dropping to my knees in the water in November and I started to cry and I didn't know how to pray. I'd never done that.  Right. You know, because I did everything possible to take all that away. Yeah.  And you know, there was a changing moment for me in my recovery. I was able to start accepting things.  So when you got out, you said not everything's perfect. Right. What do you do to handle stress today? Well, I still go to church on Sundays and I still read my Bible, you know, there it's very structured in here and I've kind of carried that with me two and a half years since leaving there. Yeah, and that's another point too, you know, when it's structured and we have to do things this way, you know, but characters shown when we do things when nobody else is looking. Right. You know, and taking care of ourselves knowing that we have these problems and that we have a solution that we can turn to, you know. So what's next for you? What are your plans for the future? Well, hopefully one day sooner than later I will be working with people in recovery. That is ultimately the goal. If I could give any advice to the person still struggling today, it would be that you are not your current situation. You are not the things that you've done. There is a God who loves you and will set you free. All you have to do is surrender. Well, thanks for sharing all that with us. This season of Recover Loud is presented by Recovery on the Road, a Facebook group providing recovery support and resources to anyone, anywhere and anytime throughout the day. If you or someone you know is struggling, please connect to Recovery on the Road on Facebook. Recovery on the Road has been offering in-person meetings here at 46 Sweden Street in Caribou. If you're in the area, please stop by, grab a calendar, and come attend one of the meetings. We believe that connection is the opposite of addiction. Recover Loud, everyone. Let's go! I'm on a journey to discover the truth. Living life in recovery is lovely. You got the power in you. Surround yourself with positive energy. Judges hitting people with provocative penalties. Need to make a change. Advocate and change the laws. To people that it's not insane. When you stand behind the cars, I'm here to speak about the pain. Recover Loud to normalize the disease. That's been killing all my friends and my family. The time is now to let it all go. Recover Loud to benefit its healthy people. Family and friends that never have to overdose. Ever again, never have to plead out to a lesser defense. I'm proud to say that I recover loud. I never thought I could, but I'm so proud that I discovered how to live my life again. Controlling my own destiny. I needed recovery. I still needed desperately. Addiction never defined my identity. Recover Loud here to tell my own story. I recover proud, save a life of like 40. I recover loud, yeah. I recover loud. I recover loud, yeah. I recover loud. I recover loud here to tell my own story. I recover proud, save a life of like 40. I recover loud, yeah. I recover loud. I recover loud, yeah. I recover loud. I recover, I recover loud. Hi, I'm Mike Paddleford, the host of Recover Loud. I'm sitting here with my friend Marshall Mercer. Together, we've recently started a new show called Crying Out Loud. Marshall Mercer, I'm an organizer, I'm an activist, I'm an advocate, owner of my own company, CSK Services, Recovery Services, I'm exactly the director of Hope Rovers Incorporated. But six years ago, I was in prison. Ten years before that, I was addicted to needles. So before that, I was in crime. I was a dealer. I was a gang member. I was all these other things that nobody knew of me to be today. So Marshall, tell us a little bit about what this new show is going to be about. So this show is going to be about, it's going to be about a place where the people who are unhoused can come speak to if how is the truth. It's going to be a place for the marginalized community to come together and be themselves and be able to tell us what's going on with them, give us the needs that they need so we can help them. More along the line, if we can always come to find out, if we listen to our people, they will have the solutions right there with them. Yeah, because everyone has ideas of who they believe is out there on the street, who is out there struggling, and why. When we get to talk to people regardless of where they are in their journey and who they are, we get to know the people behind the images. We can drive up and down the street. We're shooting the show in Augusta. Yes. We're going to be focusing on people who are struggling here in Augusta. And we see it. Drive down the street, you see it. We can assume anything we want about those people, but it doesn't do that many good. Learning who they are, finding out why they're there, finding out what it's going to take to bring them up out of that, and who knows better than the people who are in it. And that's the thing too. A lot of times, it's not because they're using drugs.  Some of us may have lost our jobs, or may have gotten a car accident, got hurt, injured somehow, lost their wives.  There's normal people on the show that come on the show that's going to make each and every one of you think about who these people are. Think about who you are. Biases. I know I have many of biases. I can come out here and I can choose to love or choose to bring my anger or choose to do any of the things. But when we choose just to love, man, every time, I mean, when you get to know each and every one of these individuals, you get to know the names, you get to know who they are as a human. And we don't think people are housed or drug addicts or any of the names that we want to give people that we're messing with. I spent a time without a home living in my car. And my daughter used to call me every night, she was worried, and she's like, dad, you're homeless. And I said, no, I'm without an address. At the moment, I didn't have an address. I knew that was something that gave me a goal. I could work towards getting an address. So just identifying that and not putting that negative spin on everything. We can help the people out there today. And they can help us by letting us know what they need. Absolutely. I like to believe us with this. Unhoused people deserve to live through. Absolutely.


Hello, I am Purvesh. I basically work as a front-end developer in ClearTrip. Can you hear me? So, front-end developer with Sunith Singh only in ClearTrip and I am just trying to like design under Sunith on itself. I have tried to work on this boarding part assignment that Sunith has given. So, I started with this version basically just wanted to like give the most important information for the primary traveler also and the secondary traveler also. But somehow I felt that this it was not balancing properly. I took some feedback from Sunith and so this is the first revision that we came up. Basically, if you see this option should work without this map also. If the airlines they have difficulty in implementing it and this is the other one that we feel works the best and I tried to work on the credit card statement also. I just feel like this is the most important information from a user's point of view. He basically wants to see the total outstanding amount, the minimum amount due and the due date and we've tried to like break the transactions into like so if you see there's a rat which shows like the late fees that you have to pay. If you've done some points redemption we are showing like this. We've just tagged basically the transactions and if it's an international transaction we are like integrating with the as strict. Yeah that's it.
