Now at the U.S. Naval Auxiliary Air Station at 29 pounds, the Lucky Strike Program, starring Jack Denney with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Rochester, Larry Stevens and yours truly, Don Wilson. Donnie talking and Don, I don't mind you reaching a little for a last, but you don't have to go that far. Only 29 hairs. I'm counting the two on your chest. Although, you know Don, I'm kind of proud of those two hairs. I've even named them. Named them? Abercrombie and Pitch. Abercrombie is the one on the left, but Pitch has been with me a little longer. Now wait a minute, Jack. Pitch is a hair, Donnie. I know, Don. In fact, if it wasn't for Pitch, I would have lost Abercrombie. This may sound silly, but they really helped me get around. When I came up to the main gate this morning, the guard saluted and let me ride through. The guard saluted you? Yep. As I reached the gate, my shirt blew open. He saw the two hairs on my chest and thought I was an ensign. Still in the Navy, I'd want to be stationed right here at 29 Palm. I don't know, there's nothing like the desert that's so beautiful, so colorful, so romantic, every bit of it.  I'm merely repeating what it says on the bulletin board. It says, from Lieutenant Commander Smith to the personnel at 29 Palm, you will find this desert beautiful, colorful and romantic. That's an order. Well, you see, Don, this place is... Oh, hello, Mary. Hello, Jack. Hi, you fellas. At 29 Palm, 30 different from the other camps we visited, isn't it? It sure is, Jack, but that's because it's so isolated. Oh, I don't think so, Mary. This place isn't so far out from the desert. It isn't, huh? But how come when they give the boys a pass, they give them a canteen of water at the same time? A canteen of water? Yes, and if they sip it sparingly, they can make it to the main highway. Stop exaggerating. Exaggerating? Jack, this afternoon I was taking a walk in the desert. I happened to pass two sailors. So one of them came over, looked at me, blinked his eyes, looked at me again and turned to his friend and said, Hey, Steve, we must be winning. They've got these things back in production again. Those boys were just kidding. I'll bet at least half of these fellas have seen girls before. Anyway, they were just trying to get acquainted. After all, you're the only girl here. Well, if I am, I'm not very popular. When we arrived, I was wearing my prettiest dress, and all the fellas flocked around down Wilson. That's right, Jack. They hung around me for hours. Well, why wouldn't they down? It's the first time they've seen so much shade in one lump. Let's be honest about it. Weather isn't bad out here at all. Jack, nobody's going to punch you in the nose. It's hot and it's dry, so you might as well admit it. Now, Mary, it isn't hot. Oh, here comes Larry Stevens. I'll prove it to you. Say, Larry, do you think it's dry up here? Larry, it isn't so dry up here, is it? Larry, stop licking your lips and answer me. Oh, I feel better now, Mr. Benny. Hello. Yes, but isn't it strange having a naval station so far from the ocean? Well, that's not unusual, Larry. When I was a sailor in the First World War, I was stationed at Great Lakes, and I went through my entire naval career. But I'll seem either the Pacific or the Atlantic. Yeah, but at least you saw Lake Michigan. No, no, no, no. I didn't see that either. What you must have seen at the Great Lakes Naval Station is right on the shores of Lake Michigan. Mary, when I joined the Navy, I spent my first night in a hammock. When I got up, I was so bent over, I didn't see anything but the guy in back of me for the next three years. I was being bent over, but every time I sat down, I rocked myself to sleep. It was awful. But Jack, how could you get so doubled up from sleeping? Well, down was my first experience with a hammock. How did I know you weren't supposed to hang both ends on the same hook? No, they should give directions with those things. Gee, Mr. Benny, it must have been terrible walking around bent over like that for three years. No, no, Larry, it worked out very well. After leaving the Navy, I went into Waterville as the only talking U-turn in the country. That's what you did. I knew that would hit Remly. Anyway, kid, now that you're here, I'm sure the boys would like to have a song. How about it? Okay. Hold on a minute. Come in. Mr. Benny. Yes? What is it, Taylor? Is it so that when you tell your show at a camp, the boys always give you souvenir? Well, yes, yes. Once I played at an infantry camp, and they gave me a rifle. Another time, I was at an air base, and they gave me a parachute. Just two weeks ago, I played at a boot camp. And they gave him the boot. Marry. She's just jealous because my son's suit is more daring than hers. Anyway, it's true. When I play at a camp, the boys usually get together and give me some sort of a souvenir to take home with me. I'm glad to hear that, Mr. Benny, because the boys here voted to give you something, too. Well, in fact, there are so many things we'd like to give you. You can take your choice. My choice? Yep. You can have the desert, the palms, the wind, the sand, the rabbits, the sagebrush, the cactus. Wait a minute. The heat, the dust, the corpus, the coyotes, the snails, the sailors. The tents, the dunes, the bees, the breeze. Larry, you better not sing. You better not sing. The monster. Larry, sing. The yuppie. The lizard. The bunny. There's the tar. The bark. I mean, you belong to my heart. And now, fellas, for our feature attraction tonight, we're going to... Okay, sailors, you're all in clover because Harris is here, and I'm taking over. It's so late. What took you so long getting here? Well, I'm sorry, Jackson, but I couldn't get a lift, so I walked over from the ship's service store. Just a second, Jackson, hold it a minute. I want to get a little... Take off the other shoe. I might find Gravel Gertie. I'm just kidding you. I really love it here at 28 Palms. Well, it's not 28 Palms. It's 29 Palms. It's 28. 29. 28. 29. Just a minute. You know, I meant to tell you. Friday night, I saw the opening of your new picture. The horn blows at midnight at Warner Brothers Theater. Oh, yes. The horn blows at midnight. How'd you like me? I don't know. I blew at 10.30.  You do, eh? I certainly do. Did you read what the critics said about me? Yes. Friday night, we're going... And the critics said, Jack, Benny's performance... I know what they said. You don't have to repeat it. I saw your picture and I thought you were wonderful. Nobody's asking... What? What did you say, Don? I said, I saw your picture and I thought you were wonderful. But I was a little disappointed in the credits. Why? I got star billing. I know, Jack, but I mean the other credits. You know where it says, music by Waxman, make up by Westmore and gowns by Milo. Well, what's wrong with that? Well, they should have added cigarettes by Lucky Sprank. Oh, for heaven's sake, Don. In the movies, they can't credit every incidental thing. But Jack, Lucky Strikes aren't incidental. They're made from the finer, the lighter, the naturally milder tobacco. Well, Don, Don, I agree with you, but tell me, in which scenes did you think I did my best acting? Well, to tell you the truth, Jack, I didn't see your picture. What? When I noticed that they didn't give Lucky Strike credit, I got up and walked out. Well, Don, if you didn't see the picture, how did you know I was wonderful in it? You told me that two weeks ago. Hey, Jackson, I want to ask you something. If you're so good in that picture, how come the day it opened in Los Angeles, you were hiding in Palm Springs? I wasn't hiding. You know, very well, I sub-leased William Powell's house. He's not using it for a month. How do you pay him for it, Jack? Well, ordinarily, he rents it for $150 a month. But since we're such good friends, he insisted that I take it for nothing. But I told him it was ridiculous and I gave him $10. You know, I just couldn't be a stinker. Now, let's see where it was. Oh, yes. Oh, yes, tonight, fellas, we're going to present a dramatic play entitled... Excuse me, I'll get it. Hello? Hello, Mr. Bennet. It's Roger. Roger, sir. What do you want? Why, was he mad? But he happened to get so angry. Did his lawyer come out with him? Nobody figures I'm doing. Yes, sir, don't worry about it. I'll straighten the whole thing out when I get home. Goodbye. Goodbye. Well, say, Roger, sir, I want you to go to bed early tonight because I'm going to play golf in the morning and I want you to caddy for me. But, boss, I won't. Oh, stop complaining. A nine-hole course is nothing. Nothing for you, but how about me? Yes, sir, you don't carry so much. I'll play golf in the morning and I want you to caddy. Okay, boss. What do you mean, 40? If we lose a boy, we can leave the flashlight home. Hello, my wife, Mandy. I'm your husband, Randy. And, Larry, you're going to be my son, Sandy. That's Sandy, too.  And, Don... Yes, Jack? You're going to be the 29-pound. Just blossom time. Our scene opens in a little shack in the middle of the desert. That's so beautiful. So colorful. Have some candy, Sandy. I don't like Sandy candy. Sandy, did I, Mandy? Well, we got to eat more. You can have your choice. Fried yucca, mashed tumbleweed, or spaghetti and cactus balls. Gettie and cactus balls, but leave off the spaghetti. They're about 200 miles, eh? That's the boom that can't last. And my wife is Mandy. Sandy, Randy, and Mandy. Well, what a coincidence. Why? What's your name? Fitzgerald. I never called on us. What brings you here? Well, I'm kind of running out of water, and I thought maybe let me have some. Running out of what? Water. A swimmin' pool.  Sand, silly. Yeah, but there's a 50-foot dive ball. Okay, Paul. Well, it sure is.  Don't put your bathing cap on. Good place any longer. I'm going to where there's civilization, where there's life, people, brightly. Let's hitch up the wagon and go. Then eat better, hurry, when I take you out in the sherry, when I take you out. Hey, Paul! Well, I wish they'd hurry. I like it. Okay, but wait just a minute. Before we start on such a long trip, we ought to have some refreshments. You got any, Randy? Randy, I don't know. Hey, Mandy, we got any, Randy? Not here. It ain't A on the way over. I saw a tongue coming down the road with a dog hanging out. Just a minute. Here comes somebody's style. Looks like he's been lost. It does. It's a week. At last, I'm here. Long trip. Well, I made it. Thank you. Where'd you come from? Quality of product is essential to continuing success. Oh, poor American. In a figure added, it's the tobacco that counts. That lucky strike means buying tobacco.


USS Abraham Lincoln, the flagship of carrier strike group 12, and its crew of nearly 6,000 sailors departed Norfolk on April 1, 2019 for a regular scheduled deployment for the first time since 2012. Captain Putnam Brown, commanding officer of Abraham Lincoln, participated in media availability on the pier before departure. I tell you what, this community could not be a better community as far as Navy support, but the ship is excited about getting back to California. That's where its roots are, and that's where we're looking forward to going. Deploying ships and aircraft to the strike group, commanded by rear Admiral John Wade, include flagship USS Abraham Lincoln, the nine squadrons of carrier Air Wing 7, staffs of carrier strike group 12, destroyer squadron 2, and the guided missile cruiser, USS Leitegolf. CSG-12 is scheduled to operate in six-fleet area of responsibility, conducting maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts alongside allies and partners. The deployment will conclude with Abraham Lincoln changing home port to San Diego, California. Reporting for USS Abraham Lincoln, this is MC-3 Shane Bryant.


What's up everybody jaysie never jaskies case breaks calm 1718 canine flawless basketball one box briefcase random hip break number six So there you go, so again everybody is guaranteed something Ten total spots first we open up the briefcase show you the hits Then we'll type in the ten hits and the ten customer names and whatever you match up with is what you get So here are the customer names Corey and Mike Sam, it's got the last three Logan Matthew Johnny Sean Joseph and Sean got these from a filler break So let's do the break first Nice, but we have I remember correctly. That's one of the more famous Taco places that came out on Taco Chronicles if you guys haven't seen it on Netflix definitely do it But just remember you're gonna get very hungry That's cool, man, I tried tacos at the world in Vegas Okay, you know my favorite type of tacos carnitas. I love that stuff my wife was up a store Almost so I'm sure she would love to go to Mexico City. We've always talked about it, but it's gonna make it happen one of these days There's actually this pretty cool spot I always talk about it though It's in downtown. Well more Lincoln Heights area next to Dodger Stadium I Have any 26 that place dollar tacos crazy good crazy good. All right, so let's cover up the hits So another crazy thing guys that happened in the last break is that there was no rookies Nor in anything just no rookies at all. So Expect there to be some rookies here unless this is just totally a whole that case First we have Nikolai Lucic and sometimes guys there may be more than 10 cards So if that is the case, we'll have to combo up two cards to make one spot So Nikolai Lucic Little one two three color patch We got Carl Malone to 25 Um It's more expensive than national treasures Flawless is the highest end when it comes to its two briefcases and Just the quality is obviously just top-notch But I always tell people this though national treasures RPAs tend to hold their value way more than flawless RPAs Because I've been flawless. I don't believe there's there shouldn't be anything more than out of what? 25 or something correctly John Starks, so the true RPAs and NT tend to hold their value a lot more But people love to have a flawless RPA in their collection because it is obviously the most highest end See you get four boxes of NT and flawless. You only get two briefcases so That's kind of the difference it ends up kind of averaging out We got Rudy gay 22 out of 25 We got BJ Armstrong to 25 We got a Jared Allen one out of 15 little patch order, and I believe Jared Allen is a rookie So that is technically a rookie patch auto the 15 We have Dominique Wilkins to 15 three out of 15 That guys, what is that? What is what is that? Oh? It's a 20 out of 25 Kareem Abdul Jabbar There you go Our little recap one two three four five six seven and eight So some of two relics All right guys. Well either we just had a pretty not the best case We've ever had here or this is just gonna be loaded here with these two cards are here I have first one we got it is Mike Kong Lee one out of five diamond It's a triple diamond. How about that? Triple diamond. Okay That's a little better. So just a single out of 20. You got a triple diamond Oh Dennis Smith jr. I was thinking down freaking Celtics Dennis Smith jr. Four out of five Yeah, that's rough. I got me guys. I thought that was gold. I thought that was green Green for Tatum All righty guys.  So Still can get a nice one. All right, you guys so let's quickly pause the video I'll type in the list of hits we'll randomize them and see what you get guys All right, you guys welcome back. So here you go. Here's a dice roller Here's a customer names here that all the hits that are put in Nikolai busavik patch Carmelone patch John Starks auto Rudy Gay auto be Jarvan auto Jared Allen patch auto Dominic Wilkins out of 15 creams of the bar auto out of 25 my connolly triple diamond out of five in Dennis Smith jr. Auto out of five So let's roll the dice and we got a five and a three for eight times one two three four five six Seven and eight All right eight times Shawn Donna Mike Sammich and eight times here one two three four five six seven eight Boom eight times Carmelone patch on a Dennis Smith jr. Auto So it's Johnny have the Carmelone patch out of 25 Logan with the Rudy Gay auto out of 25 Mike Sammich last Bob Mojo the cream of dole Jabbar Auto out of 25 I was eight right?  We have more of this will post it up on our website. Appreciate you guys


This is the Faction CT 2.0, it uses a super solid sandwich construction using a poplar and beech core so it's it's really strong but it's still got a nice kind of lightweight agile feeling to it. It's 102 millimeters underneath the waist so it's got plenty of, plenty of flotation and it's got a low camber profile to it so it's nice and stable too so whether you're in the powder or whether you're in variable conditions or whether you're in the park it's super super solid underneath the foot. It also uses carbon reinforcement so that just helps just to spread the weight, spread or distribute the pressure when you've got heavy landings but it also just increases power to the edge as well so if you're on firmer conditions there's plenty of edge grip too. It uses a true twin shape too so from the center to the tail and the center to the tip is exactly the same shape so whether you're landing forward or you're landing switch it's going to ski the same either direction. The kind of skier it's going to suit is someone who's probably looking at the ARV 96 as well but it's that person who's a decent all-mountain skier they want something that's nice and stable everywhere they want something that handles pretty well on piece too. So today I've been skiing the Faction CT 2.0 from the Candide range we've got some very slushy cruddy conditions being a little bit wider underfoot helped me keep on top of the on top of the snow and it made it a lot of fun nice surfy feel which is awesome. The sidewall in the ski as well actually helps it grip really nicely on piece and on harder snow which is a surprise as well and the rocker in the tip of the tail as well actually really nice gives you a nice little butter zone to help press on to the tip onto the tail and it's super poppy so it'll launch you off the roll or off a kicker or something like that yeah into the stratosphere and it's loads and loads of fun.


Good evening. Before starting the second part of the fetal urogenital system, let's have a short recap of what we discussed in the first part. So, in the first part, we discussed about the urinary tract dilatation, how to format the report of the UTD so that it will include the description of calluses, cortical thickness and echogenicity, ureter bladder and the bladder outlet. Then we also discussed about the abnormalities of the renal number, position as well as the hyperacoic kidneys and its etiologies. So, in part 2, we will discuss about the anomalies of bladder, the ambiguous genitalia, the adrenal clearance and the ovarian pathologies. So, bladder can be enlarged or bladder can be not at all visualized. So, now coming to dilative bladder. When longitudinal diameter of the bladder is more than or equal to 7 millimeters in the first trimester, then it is called mega cystis. No such cutoff exists in the second or the third trimester. When the bladder diameter is between 7 to 15 millimeter, it is mild to moderate mega cystis. And in this group, 20% cases are associated with chromosomal abnormalities. While in the chromosomal normal group, more than 90% of the cases of this mega cystis resolved to normal. When the bladder diameter is more than 15 millimeters, it is a severe form of mega cystis. In this group, hardly 10% are chromosomally abnormal, but in the chromosomal in normal group, the mega cystis leads to progressive obstructive neuropathy. So, in mega cystis, the chromosomal evaluation is indicated. So, this is around the 13 weeks fetus, where you can see a very prominent bladder. When the bladder diameter was measured, it was around 9.3 millimeters. And here, you can see the kidneys, which are very prominent, the pervecalation system is very prominent, the dental cortex is ecogenic. And then if you see here, you can see the dilated ureter also. While this is another fetus of around 13 weeks, where you can see this hugely dilated distended urinary bladder. See, this large bladder is senior, the bladder can be identified by the uterine artist. And again in this video, you can see the dilated pervecalation system and then the hyper-equity nal cortex. And what are the causes of bladder dilatation? It could be a transient dilatation or it could be an obstructive abnormality caused by posterior urethral valves or urethral stenosis or atrophy or colloidal degeneracies. Or it can be non-obstructive anomalies like the VU reflux, the vesicle atonia, the mega cystis micro colon intestinal hypoperestalsis that is the NMIS syndrome and mega cystis mega urector syndrome. Both these syndromes are quite rare. There are ultrasound, there are certain specific characteristics of the bladder along with the ureter kidney and amniotic fluid, which can help us to reach the specific diagnosis for the distended bladder.  We can get the keyhole sign. Nearly ureters are dilated. There can be hydronephrosis and depending on the degree of hydronephrosis, the ringal cortex can be ekozine and there can be even presence of small cysts. The amniotic fluid can be normal or can be reduced. When in urethral atresia, the bladder is grossly distended with very thin walls. The kidneys and the kidneys are small and ekozidic. They are basically because of the obstructive cystic dysplasia and here the lycra amount the amniotic fluid is markedly reduced or it can be absent. When in primary reflux, the bladder wall is apparently normal. The bladder is distended. The ureters depending on which stage of reflux it is, it can be dilated or normal. The hydronephrosis is definitely there and the amniotic fluid is normal in primary reflux. When in cloacal dysgenesis or persistent cloaca, the distended bladder has a normal or a thick wall and we can see the presence of hydrocolpus behind posterior to the bladder. Here because of the compression of the bladder outlet because of the hydrocolpus, the bladder is dilated. The ureters are dilated. Here we can get hydronephrosis and depending on the degree of obstruction, the amniotic fluid may be normal or can be reduced. So, here is a case of posterior refill valve where you can see a thick wall bladder with a typical keyhole sign and then the kidneys are highly ekozidic and you can see the central carisal dilatation also. With recent advances, fetal intervention is possible in the luto. So, fetal interventions like the vesicle amniotic shunt, which is a percutaneously done under the ultrasound guidance or a fetal systoscopic laser ablation of the posterior urethral valve can be done. So, now in which fetuses should we go for the interventions? So, a classification of the luto according to the severity was proposed in which luto was divided into three stages. The criteria used for this staging are amniotic fluid volume, the ekozidicity of the fetal kidneys, the renal cortical cyst, the renal dysplasia and the fetal urinary biochemistry. The fetal urinary biochemistry tells us about the renal function. The renal ekozidicity, the presence of the cortical cyst or the renal dysplasia indicate that the kidneys definitely damaged. So, in stage when everything is normal, the fetal urinary biochemistry is also favorable and therefore in such cases the interventions are not indicated. In stage 2, there is severe luto, but the prenatal findings, the parameters like amniotic fluid ekozidicity, etc, suggest that the renal function is preserved and in this way if you go for fetal intervention, then there is a high chance that the severe renal impairment can be avoided. While in stage 3, the parameters already suggested that there is significant fetal abnormal renal function and that the intervention can be indicated basically to prevent the pulmonary hypoplasia, but not the postnatal renal impairment. Now, coming to the non-visualization of the bladder. Whenever the bladder is not visualized, first we have to look at the kidneys and see for the presence. If the kidneys are not present and the amniotic fluid is totally absent, then it is bilateral renal urgenesis, which can be diagnosed or confirmed on the color Doppler examination by showing the absence of the renal arteries. And then with persistently non-visualized bladder, you see kidneys. How will you proceed? So, here we have to look for the ecogenesis of the kidney and then if the kidneys are hyper-ecoic, we need to look for the volume of the kidneys. We have studied this algorithm last time. If the volume of the kidneys is large, like the kidneys are large hyper-ecoic with absent or reduced amniotic fluid, then it can be ARPKD or ADPKD or it can be bilateral multi-cystic kidney. And then if the renal volume is reduced with decreased amniotic fluid, then it is a prototype for type means it is the obstructive cystic renal dysplasia. Now, if the kidney ecogenesis is normal, how will we proceed? Here we have to look at the amniotic fluid. The amniotic fluid is reduced with the absent or reversed endosteric flow on the umbilical arteries, then it is a severe FGR. And if the amniotic fluid is normal, we have to evaluate the genital area to look for any genital mass which can keep present a bladder extrafie or a cloacal extrafie. The rare cause of bladder non-visualization, which we should know are bladder extrafie and the cloacal extrafie. Bladder extrafie is a very rare condition which occurs in one in 30,000 live birds. Here there is persistently non-visualization of the bladder with a small mass on the lower anterior abdominal vault. It is associated with abdominal genitalia and the amniotic fluid is normal. To differentiate the bladder extrafie from other anterior abdominal masses, the key angle was proposed by Kavita Aneja in IJRI in 2017. So what is this key angle? It is the angle between the umbilical arteries and the aorta. Normally this angle is acute angle by the bladder extrafie. This angle becomes an obtuse or it goes nearly to 90 degrees. These images are from Dr. Aneja's publication where in the lower one you can see the acute angle formed by the umbilical arteries and the aorta tension while in bladder extrafie here you can see that the angle is become obtuse. In the axial section we can see the parallel course of the intraabdominal umbilical arteries instead of the converging course. Cloacal extrafie it's a still rare condition. Here persistent cloaca occurs because of failure of the urorectal septum to divide cloaca into anterior urinary bladder and the posterior rectum. In presence of a lower anterior abdominal vault defect, this persistent cloacal aversion occurs leading to the cloaca extrafie. Here again in ultrasound we cannot see the bladder. There is an infra umbilical mass which is formed by the averted cloaca and also the umphalocene. Spinal renal and clover limb anomalies are associated with cloaca extrafie. And this is a postnatal picture of a typical elephant trunk appearance in the cloaca extrafie where we can see the umphalocene. The bilateral bulges are the amybladders and through which a small bowel herniation occurs which give the appearance of the elephant trunk. So this is the elephant trunk appearance classical of cloaca extrafie. Now coming to ambiguous genitalia the incidence is around 1 in 4500. On ultrasound the accurate diagnosis is very difficult. The micro penis with cryptorchidism cannot always be differentiated on ultrasound from the clitoral hypertrophy with normal labia. So here is a case this primate came for ultrasound between 17 to 18 weeks. The ultrasound findings were that there was there were bilateral CTV. Adrenal glands were enlarged and the the genitalia were abnormal. So here in this clip you can see hypoechoic triangular large areas just above the kidneys. The length of this hypoechoic triangular area is nearly half that of the kidneys. So these are the still images of the left adrenal and the right adrenal gland which are enlarged. And on this clip of the perineal area you can see the labia and in between there are there is a protrusion. So in this case a higher diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia was suspected. The patient refused any fickle investigations like amnu and the pregnancy was terminated and this is the picture of the abortus showing the abnormal genitalia. And this is the report of the mother which was later done where it shows that the CYP21A2 gene shows a mutation which is associated with congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Though in this case it was of uncertain clinical significance. The other adrenal gland anomalies which we can see in the prenatal period are the adrenal gland cysts where we can see just above the kidney we can see rounded legions which may be an echoic or can have internal echoes. There can be atrial hemorrhage which present as mass and then there can be neuroblastoma which are very rare finding. And ovarian cysts are the common intraabdominal cysts in the female fetus and they are usually seen in the third trimester or third trimester. Presentation is usually an anechoic cyst in the pelvis. At times the cyst can be hemorrhagic and may go in torsion. It can be unilocular or it can be a multi-locular cyst. Rarely there can be polyhydramnus because of bowel obstruction caused by the large cyst. Spontaneous regression is always seen after the birth. On ultrasound we need to show the cysts separate from the bladder. Identification of the bladder can be done by the visualization of the umbilical arteries on the color Doppler. And in our reporting we should mention about the presence of pelvic cysts rather than labelling them as ovarian cysts in the report. So to conclude bladder must be documented in all trimester. A detailed evaluation of the perineal area is indicated in suspected pathologies. And to repeat again GUT evaluation begins from the first trimester and we should remember that the cacod that is the congenital anomalies of kidney and the urinary tract are evolving anomalies. And in the description of the urinary tract dilatation we should include the renal pelvis, scalysis, ureter and the bladder as well as the amniotic fluid. And then we should remember that ultrasound finding can prognosticate the renal outcome and therefore they should be very meticulously evaluated. And a timely antinatal and postnatal therapy can be initiated by our prenatal ultrasound findings which prevent the renal damage and improves the outcome of the affected child. Thank you very much.


Hello and welcome to the session I am Deepika here. Let's discuss a question which says integrate the following function x into e raise to power x upon 1 plus x whole square. Let us first understand the integral of the type e raise to power x fx plus f dash x equal to 2 power x into fx plus this is the key idea behind that question. We will take the help of this key idea to solve the above question. So let's start the solution. Now we have to integrate x into e raise to power x upon 1 plus x whole square. Now according to our key idea we will express the integral as the sum of two integrals one consisting of fx containing f dash x. So our given integral can be written as e raise to power x over 1 plus x whole square is equal to integral of e raise to power x 1 upon 1 plus x whole square n equal to 1 plus x whole square minus 1 over 1 plus x whole square n equal to integral of e raise to power x 1 over 1 plus x 1 over 1 plus x whole square. Note that the derivative of 1 over 1 plus x is minus 1 over minus 1 over 1 plus x whole square. The given integral therefore e raise to power x upon 1 plus x whole square is e raise to power x 1 plus x. Take care.


Hey everybody, Dr. O. This video we're going to cover is the last video I'm going to do in a series of protein synthesis inhibiting antibiotics. So we're going to talk about chloramphenicol, which chloramphenicol does inhibit protein synthesis at the 50s ribosome. So it's been around a long time, so it's got, it was used historically a lot more than now, and we'll talk about why. So it was discovered from another streptomyces, streptomyces Venezuela in 1947. In 1949, it actually was the first broad-spectrum antibiotic that was approved by the FDA, and that's because the only actual antibiotic that had been approved before was penicillin, which was only effective against gram-positive. Now, just as a quick reminder, that doesn't count the sulfa drugs because they're not true antibiotics because they're synthesized in the laboratory. Now, so is chloramphenicol now, so chloramphenicol was a natural antibiotic, it was found in nature, but it was also easily synthesized in the laboratory. So this was the first synthetically mass-produced antibacterial, where you took a natural antibiotic and synthesized it in the lab. So chloramphenicol's been around a long time, a ton of it was produced, it could penetrate our body tissues well, it was super effective against, you know, a broad-spectrum might effective against a lot of bacteria, which means that it got used a lot, which was leading to some resistance issues, but it was used to treat like you name it, right? Typhoid fever conjunctivitis, I mean, pretty much anything, it was being used to treat. The problem and the reason you don't see it in use anywhere near as much now is that there's some pretty serious side effects.  The drug would build up, just the enzymes needed to get rid of the drug and the liver's ability to get rid of the drug and kidney's ability to get rid of the drug just seemed to be lacking in babies. So if chloramphenicol would build up in their system, it would basically shut off electron transport, so it would cause all sorts of problems, but it doesn't matter if you know that. But it does have an impact on bone marrow, so it can actually decrease blood cell production in several ways. Some you can actually develop aplastic anemia and never come back from it, but others it's a temporary loss of blood cell production that does go away when you get off the drug. But the reason I want to talk about that is that the reason they believe that happens, at least in this type of loss of blood cells, is this drug is impacting the mitochondria of stem cells that are making new blood cells. And the reason that's important is you do have to remember that our mitochondria have 70S ribosomes. So these drugs that inhibit the 70S ribosomes of bacteria, there are potential side effects in human cells, right? So it's not completely selectively toxic, meaning that it doesn't like with peptidoglycan cell wall inhibitors, we don't have peptidoglycan cell wall, so there's no concern there really. Whereas with these drugs, there is the concern that they're impacting mitochondrial function. I talked about this in the mitochondria video, but I noticed working with athletes that it did appear to impact them in ways it doesn't impact the rest of us. And I think part of that is me sitting here, I'm not taxing my mitochondria. They can keep up with me pretty easy. But I noticed with high level athletes that a lot of these antibiotics did impact their performance. And I do have to wonder how much of it is the impact on these mitochondria. So I'm definitely not saying completely, but it's just worth noting. All right, so that is chloramphenicol. It had a lot of uses in the past. And because of these side effects, just not much anymore. But I hope this helps. Have a wonderful day. Be blessed.


When you become a Christian, it's a miraculous experience.  You were made into a new creation and now empowered by God's power in His presence in your life to follow Him daily. However, after the dust settles and it does settle, you realize that you still carry some baggage from your previous life. Ideas, beliefs, presuppositions, understandings, things that are not built on biblical truth, but rather lies that you've carried for so long. Now, I experienced the exact same thing. In today's video, I'm going to share with you eight lies that I believed when I first became a Christian. And I'll share with you the scriptural truth that set me free. I don't know about you guys, but as a young Christian, I struggled with my sense of assurance. I put my faith in Jesus, but I was still finding myself struggle with old sins. One of the things I really struggled with was lust. I felt like some days I was taking one step forward, then two steps back. Sometimes it felt like I was making no progress. Other times it would feel like I'm getting totally free from it, actually finding victory. And all of a sudden I fall back into the same old sin. I felt isolated. I felt alone when I looked at my other Christian friends. It didn't seem like they're really struggling, so it caused me to question whether I was really a Christian. But it took me a while to realize that this isn't unique for Christians at all. Even the Apostle Paul explains this same tension in his life. Oh man, where'd my Bible go? Okay, okay. I got it here. I got it here. Okay, so Romans 7.15, it says, I do not understand my own actions, for I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. As I read Paul's words, the distinction here is that Paul hated his sin. An untransformed heart stews in sin. It justifies it. It doesn't apologize for it. But a heart transformed by God hates sin and delights in God. There's definitely a place to examine yourself to see if you're in the faith. But don't for a second believe that it's by your good works that you're kept saved, basically, right? You don't maintain your salvation by doing good stuff or trying to earn God's favor. Ask people in your life, do you see the fruit of the Spirit in me? Do you see me growing in maturity? Do you see God's work in my life? The old saying, I'm not sure who originated it, but it goes like this. It's not about perfection. It's about direction. Now if you search your heart and you find out, look, I don't really hate sin. Look, my life is actually going against God and it's not going towards him. Then maybe you find out, hey, I'm actually not in the faith. It is not too late for you. You know, the Bible says that if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. Ask him to transform your heart and he will. Now, this is a transactional understanding of a relationship with God. If I do good things, if I'm nice and walk old ladies across the street, then God will bless me and he'll also show his favor and his love for me and his approval of me. Now, the scripture is clear about God being pleased when we obey him and honor him, but we need to understand that God's love is always a gift. It is not merited. We did not earn his love or his approval of us. So when we operate on this understanding of, well, if I do these nice things even as a Christian, then that means God loves me more on that particular day. We're taking out the reality that every ounce of God's love shown towards us is a gift. And it took me so long to realize this and even still today, I'm trying to internalize this truth that even when I sin, God's love is still there for me because it's a gift and it still covers me by his grace. The Lord is in your midst, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with gladness. He will quiet you by his love. He will exalt over you with loud singing. I love this so much. God takes delight in us. So if God's love is a gift, where do our good works come from? Well, they should be an outflowing of our love towards God because he loved us first. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us for this is the love of God that we should keep his commandments and his commandments are not burdensome. Okay, so stay with me. So our obedience is both an outflowing of our love for God and a sign that we love God, but it's not the means of obtaining God's love because that's a gift. I can't tell you guys how much I struggle with this, especially as a new believer. I had thought that every time I kind of sinned that God was out to get me, that he was trying to punish me or mess up my life somehow. Now, obviously there are natural consequences to sin. Oftentimes, you know, you cheat on something that gets found out. You have to suffer the consequences or you sin against someone. You say hateful words to them. You still suffer the consequences of that broken relationship with all that being said. It's important to recognize that God's not just out here trying to get Christians. He may discipline you as a good father disciplines his child when he strays off the right path, but that's motivated out of his love and for your good ultimately. But he's not just out to get you. Okay, in Romans 8, there's one of my favorite verses. Of course, it's Romans 8. Guys, Romans 8 is so good, so thick. For I'm sure neither death nor life nor angels nor rulers nor things present nor things to come nor powers nor heights nor depths nor anything else in creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Now, although these are conflicting ideas, they're both lies. It brings me back to my first days on YouTube, actually. Somebody had commented underneath one of my videos and said, You are too sad, Isaac. You need to be happier and display the joy of the Lord. Conversely, there was also sentiment from other influences that the Christian life was full of hardships and trials. It was just a treading through the muck in the mire of our world till we met our maker. Both of these understandings are distorted. It's no surprise the scripture points out that the Christian life isn't just ponies and rainbows. Like just look at the early church, the martyrs of the faith. It was not just easy like jog to follow Jesus. It was challenging. There were real challenges, real consequences, real pain, real sorrow. But this is one of the interesting things of scripture, though, because although it talks about these challenges and these trials, it also talks about peace that passes all understanding and that our joy is to be made complete in Christ. This joy and peace interact simultaneously in the midst of our daily lives as we're experiencing those trials and those tribulations. Even though we're experiencing the circumstantial hardships of our daily lives, we have this internal, eternal reality of joy and peace in Christ. In John 16, Jesus says this, I have said these things to you that in me, you may have peace. In this world, you all have tribulation, but take heart. I have overcome the world. We have the outer reality of trials, hardships in our lives. And yet we have this inner reality of peace that passes all understanding because Christ has overcome the world. And actually that plays into our real everyday lives because even when things are tough, man, we got this hope, this hope, this lasting, living hope. God didn't make us into robots when we became a Christian. He was not just like, you need to be happy all the time or you need to be sad and just kind of sad because the world's a bad place. It's like, okay, yeah, there's a time for weeping. There's a time for mourning, but there's also a time for rejoicing. As a kid, worship was the two or three songs that you sang right before the pastor came up to preach. Or at Bible camp, it was a thing that happened just before the altar call. But worship is so much more than singing. It's not less than singing though. That's definitely a part of it and raising your voice to the Lord. The scripture is clear about that, but there's something else too. Romans 12 says this, I appeal to you, therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God to present your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Okay, this term living sacrifices, what does that even mean? We're called to lay our lives down in submission to God to submit our will to him, to pursue him in obedience. Any assumed autonomy on our part needs to be laid down at the foot of the cross. This is worship. So when you're singing, don't just think about the words that you're saying, but also think about the humbling and submitting of your own heart to God. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm not going to play a song for you. I'm not that good. One of the most famous verses in scripture. I got to go to it. You knew I had to. I got to do it. Come on. Why is it taking me so long? I've been out of Oana for too many years. And he said to them go into the world and proclaim the gospel to all creation. Now, if I read that right, there was no exemption there. He wasn't like, go all you extroverted people into the world and make disciples sharing the gospel. But for all you introverted folks, just keep chilling, doing what you're doing. Enjoy the scrabble and the book readings. Like, no, no, that's not what Jesus said. But I feel for you because I'm an introvert. So as an introvert, think hearing about this idea of sharing the gospel. It felt very unnatural and foreign to me because you're like, okay, I'm going to talk to somebody and like initiate this. What might be felt as a confrontational conversation, even though ideally it's not.  Like, this is uncomfy. I don't like this. And so as an introvert, I'm like, I don't know if this is like right for me. So I'm trying to figure out, okay, God, you want me to do this, but yet I don't feel equipped. And I think this goes back to our understanding of what it looks like to share the gospel. We often see, you know, big and bold and boisterous people go out onto the streets or, you know, share the gospel or preach open air or even their own social media. They're going ham and they're just like preaching up a storm and that that's great. I love that. But for a lot of folks, it's like, hey, I don't relate with that. That doesn't seem like it could be me or my gifting. Okay, how can I share it in my daily life in the conversations that I'm having? God puts us in each each in different places and it's about recognizing. Okay, what avenues do I have here to share the gospel? What are the types of people that he's put in my life and how can I make an impact on them and be a light to them? Now, it took me a while to realize that sharing the gospel can look very different for a lot of people. There's different styles or different ways and that's okay. And it's not just necessarily one conversation, but it's multiple conversations over, you know, years and that's all right. But my encouragement is become very familiar with the gospel. Who are we? Who is God? What has he done? What are we called to do? Because even if you're not able to get everything out in one conversation, it's important to know. Okay, what am I trying to lead them to here? It's not just getting the loss of the weeds of arguments and debates and apologetics. Even though this can definitely be helpful and necessary at times, I want to lead them to Christ ultimately. So keeping that in the back of your mind, it's going to be helpful regardless of what context you're sharing the gospel with somebody at. If you'd like further help on what this looks like, comment down below and I'll do a future video on it. As a teenager, I loved theology. I listened to theology podcasts. I watched theology YouTube videos. I listened to pastors and preachers. That was my obsession, I guess you could say. And I was really excited about learning more, learning new terms and that was my jam. But it was inevitable that I'd be having a conversation with someone and maybe it was revolving around a theological topic. I'd throw out a term or maybe something I was learning and they'd come back to me saying, Oh, have you ever thought about becoming a pastor? Now, I definitely didn't take offense at their questions. It's a reasonable one. But ultimately, there's an underlying belief that just because you're interested in theology or the things of God or studying the Bible a little bit more thoroughly, going a little bit deeper, that means that you should become a pastor. But here's how scripture describes your everyday disciple. But his delight is in the law of the Lord and on his law, he meditates day and night. As Christians were called to meditate on God's law and his word day and night. Does that sound like the average everyday modern Christian? Not really. We've devalued this understanding of what it means to be a Christian.  He should be a pastor. He should be a preacher. Maybe he should be or maybe not. Paul highlights this challenge in 1 Corinthians 3. He says, I gave you milk to drink, not solid food, for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now, you are not yet able. When you first become a Christian, Paul talks about this idea of taking in the milk of the word, these fundamentals, these cores of the faith, the cores of the gospel, the essential aspects of things that we need to know as Christians. That is great. That's wonderful. It strengthens your spiritual bones. But then as you grow and you mature, hopefully you move from the milk of the word to the meat of the word. The real substantial, hearty things that take you a while to chew on. Some people never actually move towards the meat. They just stay in the milk territory for so long because they've never dug any deeper. Maybe you like me have heard people say, you know, I'm not really interested in theology. And I just leave that to the preachers and teachers in my life. And I, you know, I'm not really interested in that kind of bores me to be honest. It makes me think that they don't understand what actual theology is.  And as Christians were all called to explore the things of God and meditate on his word. So everybody should be into theology to a certain extent. Obviously, there are people that are going to dedicate their lives to learning Greek and Hebrew and teaching. And that's not everybody's gifting. But as just the average to everyday Christian, we should be committed to meditating on God's word and who he is.  And I don't know, you know, what God has for me. He could call me in the future, but pastor is a specific office. It's not just you're interested in theology and sharing the gospel or learning more about him.  And there's a specific calling here. God bless the men that are called to that. But honestly, we need a lot more laypeople that are concerned with learning God's word and being equipped for sharing his word with other people, making disciples, raising Godly families, making an impact in their own workplace. Now, let's look to the scripture on what it says about finding direction, making decisions and finding guidance. Make me to know your ways, oh Lord, teach me your paths. The way of the fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice. Where there is no guidance, a people falls, but in an abundance of counselors, there is safety. Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Okay, keep that in your memory. Now, I do 100% believe that the spirit of God is active within us and this can manifest in a prompting or leading, I guess you could call it. But I would categorize this distinctly different than just a feeling, you know, but it's hard to explain. Now, I don't want to downplay those promptings or leadings, but if your decision-making is fully based on your feeling, you're missing out on key elements of how the Bible calls us to find guidance and wisdom. Getting wise counsel from those around us. Searching the scriptures, meditating on it, asking God for wisdom. Let's not rely on gut emotions or momentary feelings, but rather look to God for wisdom. It takes discernment. Yes, it absolutely does, but that's why we have counselors around us and people that are ready to give us guidance. We have the word of God and yes, we do have the prompting of the spirit. Thanks so much for watching this video guys.

that. Let's check with Doug tomorrow on this one. And then we're just eliminating this industry of this reduces. Thank you. For this one, Jean, your suggestions to establish the diet design storm or other criteria that must be met for stormwater retention and treatment to receive an exception to maximum height. This one was good. This one was good. And then we just discussed. And approve that. Right. Okay. Is there a motion. To submit the articles. The articles to town meeting or excuse me, the. Submit the articles for 2023 spring town meeting as amended as amended. I'm sorry. I can no longer speak this evening. And with the discussion with town council. And subject to the business. Right. The forthcoming discussion with town council. So I, so move that. Great. I'll second. All right. We'll take a vote starting with Ken. Yes. Jean. Yes. Steve. Yes. And I'm a yes as well. Thank you so much. Thank you, Claire and Kelly. What's that? When we do bring this up to vote, we're going to have some sort of graphics with this, right? I mean. I think we need to do some sort of. In the past where we don't have it, we didn't have any graphics. It's, it's some of the stuff's really hard to. Explain. Real quickly. I think we need to do some sort of. Plans of three dimensional graphics to go with some of this. Stuff that we're planning at all, but some of it. Right. Kelly has. Yeah. I think my intention. So now that we can submit these with one minor change for the. We can submit these to the warrant. We don't have much on the agenda for February 6. We're inviting Beth lock and DJ to come in to talk about economic development. But other than that, I was hoping that we could use that. Meaning as a work session. So we can talk through engagement and necessary materials and kind of. Different ways that we want to engage the public and hear back from the public on how, on how these articles would both. Encourage economic development, but also if there's anything that. People are concerned about. So we can make sure that we're hearing from folks before we. Even before the hearings. Possibly. And how are we going to engage the public? That's what we're going to talk about. Okay. So on the table is something like. We've done in the past. We, we did at different schools that representative. We have to do different things in different ways. Because they're different. Different and different. Different. We divide things up and we all go to different areas or we just have one crew to one to all of them. I'm not sure how. Yeah. Okay. We talk about that. But yeah, I think we think, I think the department can come prepared to that meeting with a number of suggestions that we can talk through or maybe divide and conquer. We should give most of the work to the new member who's not here yet. All right. So I think with that we will close agenda item number four and move to agenda item number five, which is open forum. So any member of public who is with us tonight, please raise your hand if you'd like to address the board. Okay, I see one. So for anyone addressing the board this evening, you will have up to three minutes to address the board and you please start by identifying yourself by your first, last name and address. Don Seltzer, please. Good evening again Don Seltzer Irving Street. And I just want to call the board's attention to 1500 Massachusetts Avenue. A couple of years ago, you granted a special permit for this project. And I believe one of the conditions was that any significant changes would have to come before the view. I don't know if any of you are aware of what's being done on this property, particularly the parking area. The builder has decided to make all the spaces there for compact cars. The ability to put in an HP space has been eliminated. And, and the driveway which you gentle sloping one going to a transition area before it reached the sidewalk is now a steep 15% driveway slope with no transition area, as it hits the sidewalk. And I know that these changes were never approved by this board. Thank you. Did you have anything else to share I appreciate that. No, that's it. Great. Thank you so much. Is there anyone else who would like to address the board during public comment this evening. Okay, seeing none we will close public comments. That is agenda item number five agenda item number six is new business, which most of which I think we've addressed at the outset with identifying Melissa's expiration of her her term. Jean I see you have your hand raised. Yeah, I just want to mention something and it sort of curious that Don said what he, what he did because this is what I've been wondering about and hope we can discuss it at another meeting. We don't really have any feedback loop after we make a decision. We sometimes, you know, say that planning community development need to review, you know, X, Y and Z and okay. And it never comes back to us to say that has been done. I don't know what happened, or in this case, and I didn't know about the one that Mr cells are just mentioned, but there's never any feedback loop that says, oh, they pulled permits they're starting to work on it. And when the building inspector knows what the requirements are in the special permit. So I think I'd like to have a discussion at one of our meetings. About building that feedback loop into what we do because occasionally something comes up. And it's like, oh, I don't know if that actually happens. And I think we should have a way that we know those things. Thank you. You can definitely go that into a future meeting. Steve. Yes, I was wondering if staff had any update on the formation of the MBTA communities working group. Yes, I have an update. We are in the process I've The candidates for the group have have been notified. I've got my mailing list together we are trying to get an email out today the weather, you know, what got in the way but certainly tomorrow Kelly and I will craft an email to invite the working group members to the first meeting which I am hoping to have a week from Thursday. If that time works for For the for the group members. It's going to be live in person. No, for now. In the evening. Yes, I'm available. Oh good. Excellent. Steve, thank you for the good news and I am looking forward to it. Okay, great. Thank you. Any other new new business anything from Claire Kelly. It's just nice to be back. We missed you. Well, and thank you for the really good feedback on more articles, I can always trust that I get good comments from y'all so thank you. Great. Thank you. Okay. Well with that, is there a motion to adjourn. So motion. Second. Second. I wanted Steve to second. And third, we'll take a vote starting with Ken. Yes. Dean. Yes. Steve. Yes. And I'm a yes as well. Thank you all for joining us this evening and have a great night. Thank you. Bye.

Okay, can everybody hear me? All right. So hi, as Adam said, I'm Helen Ho-Sun-D. I'm here today to talk to you about what it's like to drive what's essentially an extra legacy part of a really large open-source software project, which would be the core admin CSS of WordPress. I think we've heard a lot today about specific tools, how we can use them, how they work, especially this morning. But I'm gonna be focusing really on the philosophy of the why we do these things, why we use these tools, to what end we use them. This talk title is totally a joke. WordPress has only been around since 2003. It's already in the 2000s. According to Jen Schiffer though, WordPress has been around since 1998. So we'll go with it. And this is Jen's sub-mediuming me. It's in there, I promise. Again, I'm from the best part of this metro area, Jersey City. I used to live in Manhattan. I'm a New Yorker by birth, but I like Jersey City. That's my second shout-out to Jen. She's like hidden in there, and a little emoji woman. So I'm the director of platform experience of this web agency called TenUp. We do a lot of really cool things with WordPress. TenUp is really awesome, and we got to sponsor a diversity scholarship today. So if you wanna talk to me about that, that's cool too. And again, I'm one of the lead developers for WordPress. There's six of us. This is something I'm really lucky to get paid to do full-time through the agency. I've been contributing to WordPress for about four years now. A lot of it has been CSS and markup, although I also do things in PHP, like caching and queries and that kind of stuff, and a little bit of JavaScript. I just got promoted to being a lead developer earlier this year, and it's been just a huge honor for me, and it also basically means I've peaked already. So, developing WordPress, really, it's an amazing experience. It's just incredible to get to work on it. It powers 24% of the web, or at least the top 10 million sites, as counted by W3Techs. So whatever that represents to you, but 24% of that. It's a really well-established 12-year-old project with a lot of contributors, and we're always actively encouraging new ones. We focus on users and usability first, as well as providing developers with all the tools that they need, or at least some of the tools that they need, by being flexible and extensible as software. Developing WordPress is also terrifying. It powers a quarter of the friggin' internet. It's a 12-year-old project, which on the internet is pretty old at this point. We have lots of contributors, and we are always taking on new ones. We focus on users and their usability and what they think that they want, or what they actually want, and also developers and the things that they want from a flexible and extensible system. So the decision-making that we make when it comes to developing core and the directions that we take, they're heavily informed by some core philosophies that we have. They're philosophies designed for the majority and working out of the box. It's also informed by our mission of democratizing publishing. It's really easy to look at WordPress and think, oh my God, you guys are not using any hip or cool CSS or there's really old garbage in there or whatever. But there are people out there who can't use the latest and greatest browser, and often it's because they can't. And they have every bit as much of a right to publishing online as anybody else. We don't punish them for not having the latest and greatest tools available to them, and that's spreading this ability to publish to those people. The other interesting thing about having that really large and diverse user base is that we actually frequently serve as an entry point into the concepts of web development. I messed with the web back in your aim profile and Geocities and DHTML days, and I even made it through to Blogger's first redesign, like Dano, if anybody remembers that. Then I took a pretty long break and I studied classical music instead. I became a pianist and it was fun and it was awesome and it made me a better person and programmer even. And then by the time I came back around, which was about 2008, WordPress was an established thing. So somebody mentioned it to me and I was like, oh, that sounds cool. So I set up a blog using WordPress and as it goes with anybody who sort of knows stuff about the web and what they want things to look like, I started messing with my theme. And through messing with my theme, I started learning about CSS, which wasn't really a thing when I stopped doing the web thing, and some PHP. So it wasn't, I wasn't writing like great CSS or PHP, I was probably writing terrible CSS and PHP, but it doesn't really matter. What matters is that this ubiquitous piece of software and at the time budding browser developer tools, which now are pretty solid web inspectors, they showed me that this was something that I could pursue, that I had options for what I could do in life. It can be really great to teach your users about like more dense topics, how to use all these fancy tools that we're always using all the time, but there's also a huge value in continuing to support being able to just jump in to the basics of OpenWeb and encourage them to learn about what it's like to do web development, that it's even a thing that exists, like not necessarily that it has to be a thing that they want to do, but just that it's a thing that exists and maybe they might become web developers, maybe they might make their way into contributing to open source software. So you can think of us as sort of like a gateway drug to your open source projects. We also develop with a commitment to backwards compatibility, which is in the name of user trust. When you have a complex ecosystem of extensions like plugins and themes, it's really important that users are not punished for updating just because we couldn't take a moment as developers like stub out the function instead of removing it completely. And this actually affects their CSS too, where developers have decided to use some piece of CSS and we don't just remove it completely because it could totally break a user's site, at least visually. But there are times where CSS backcompat actually is more than just like a little bit of visual breakage. So for example, at the end of our last release cycle, 4.2, we had added a Z-index to this menu wrapper and in the admin to handle the over scroll thing in Safari which had like visual glitches, surprise. So it turns out that plugins out there in the WordPress ecosystem of like our 30,000 something plugins, for some reason, decided that they should apply a Z-index to the items within this menu wrapper. And sometimes that Z-index was lower than the one that we had defined for that wrapper, which meant that all of the stuff inside your admin menu, like all of those links were inaccessible. So now they're recovered by this wrapper's background. And that's what I call a lockout and that's an actual breakage caused by CSS where a user can't navigate anywhere in their admin, they can't get to their plugins or their themes from within the UI to be able to turn off the thing that has caused this problem. They can go in over FTP, but that's not for everybody. So I took the time to really dig into this, like what is the Z-index for? What is it really fixing? And it turns out that all Safari cares about is that you have a positive number, that we didn't actually have to have this really high Z-index that related to other items in that admin menu, that's actually not what we needed. All we needed was for it to be one, and then it was safe. We didn't conflict the plugins anymore. So, where does WordPress even come from anyway? It was forked from a project known as B2Cathalog in 2003. So if you're wondering why we're like GPL B2 plus, because B2 was, and so we have to be. From B2, we inherited its admin CSS in the form of a file called B2.CSS, and that was their admin CSS. This was renamed WPadmin.CSS in revision 313, and for reference we're almost at 33,000 now, so it's a really long time ago. We actually still have this WPadmin.CSS file today, and it's still the full style sheet for the admin. It's just been moved around a couple of times. It's gone through a bunch of design iterations in 2.0, 2.5, 2.7, 3.2, all of which were before I contributed to WordPress, and then most recently in 3.8. The CSS has also been iterated upon, just like the design, with a lot of the selectors staying the same or just being built up over time. So as you can imagine, after more than 12 years, if you count inheriting B2's CSS, this is kind of a mess. If you're squeamish about CSS, you might want to like not look at the next slide. I'm not kidding, actually. So this is the kind of thing we have today. I don't know how much you can really read it through the room, but they're like crazy overqualified selectors. Totally unnecessary duplication up here. No explanation for why I need to set the float to none and the border to none on, I don't know what the submit is. Is that a button? Is it a paragraph? Is it a box? I don't actually know what this is. It's not document at all. I mean, this is, I copy pasted this out. I think actually it's a screenshot. I didn't even copy paste. It's a screenshot of our current CSS. So I can actually see how all of this happened, right? So these duplicate widths at the top probably came from somebody reviewing a diff file which doesn't give you all of the context of everything that's around it. So the reviewer didn't see that this person had duplicated what was there and might not have checked the CSS file before committing it. Or maybe it happened somewhere else along the way. Some kind of decoration maybe exists on this submit class thing somewhere else in the admin and then we overwrite it without explaining why we're overwriting it here. And then the selectors probably just built up over time because we really, really, really, really, really needed to override a min width. It's really weird. I actually have no idea what any of this is for. Now I'm gonna go review it. So in the middle of all of that design iteration, during 3.3, like literally the week before I started actively contributing, all of the various CSS files that had kind of been created over time were merged into one giant WP admin CSS file. We were having some problems with dependencies and loads. So we have a system of dependencies for scripts and styles in WordPress and it's served through this concatenator, this PHP concatenator. So we were having problems with dependencies being loaded differently and so the cascade was getting broken sometimes and because it's being loaded through a concatenator it was never being cached anywhere because it was different basically on every single screen. So for my first few years of contributing in WordPress we had this one enormous CSS file for the admin. We had a couple of override files for things like right to left and color schemes. And then eventually we hit about 14,000 lines in this one file. Since all of you are presumably really into CSS I think you're probably feeling about like this right now which is how I feel like all the time. It's fine, I mean if it were perfect I wouldn't have a job so it is what it is. But how do we get out of this mess that we haven't purposefully created but that we have today? When it comes to WordPress we started with tools and tooling. We introduced build tools using grunt as a task runner in 3.7 and we continue to use them and expand them today as we work on 4.3 currently. In 3.8 we introduced a preprocessor to help us better manage the different color schemes that are bundled for the admin which are really just color variables. And then also in 3.8 we began generating right to left style sheets using CSS Janus although now we're using RTL CSS because CSS Janus isn't being maintained anymore because WordPress can be used in any number of languages some of which are right to left. Then in 3.9 we also added auto-prefixer to handle browser prefixes. All of these things that I just listed were solving our existing problems and they were existing problems of scale and people time. There were only a small number of people who were hand maintaining color schemes are right to left, mostly me. Leading to a lot of really last minute scrambles as bugs were discovered. Nobody had thought about right to left in this new feature that we had just merged. And we occasionally had to do full suites for browser prefixes in case something had been missed as things were added or something had become totally defunct. Remember KHTML prefix? So in 3.9 I buckled down and I sat down in front of my computer for two weeks restructuring CSS files to move us into position to take further steps. So with the help of some very patient fellow contributors of mine we first merged the default color scheme into the giant WP admin CSS style sheet. Up until this point a separate color scheme was always loaded for all users and it was really easy to miss things because like border style and border width would be in the WP admin CSS file and then the border color would be in the color scheme file. And then this new color scheme generation process now didn't include or import actually of the default color scheme and then defined override. So they became true overrides and that made having a separate default color scheme file totally useless. So we merged it in and this actually made our CSS significantly easier to read and patch. I think actually reduced lines of code because we could use more shorthand. So from that point we then re-split WP admin CSS now into 13 files. If you think about we have 14,000 lines of CSS it's still a lot of lines per file, whatever. But each one of these files represents a substantial focus area of the admin whether that's common styles or forms. We have a separate style sheet that has rules that have been added for specific locales. So it's like languages that have really long strings and we really need to make accommodations for those that we can't generalize. But unlike the pre 3.3 era of split files or separate files, the minified WP admin CSS file that's typically used by production sites it actually stayed the same. It's only in development environments that the 13 separate files are loaded. And we accomplished this by taking advantage of the way a tool works not by using a separate tool just to deal with that but taking advantage of something that we were already using which is the clean CSS part of CSS min. So the CSS minification includes this clean CSS. So what clean CSS does as part of it is it will inline any CSS files that are brought in using an app import statement. So our WP admin.css of today looks like this. It just doesn't add import of those 13 files and that's what that looks like. So then in production environments our build tool then inlines all of that and minifies it and so people still get their one large minified file. And this actually works out really well for people who are doing things like inspecting CSS because browser dev tools already know how to handle import statements. We don't have to worry about source maps and that sort of thing. They know, but it's in this other file and it makes it a lot easier to deal with. Each of these files then also is flipped for right to left and then combined and minified also for right to left. So after all of that work which when I did the split that was a 216,000 line chain set with a slick Rick inspired commit message but our CSS actually just looks the same, right? Like I did all this work, but it just looks the same. So now do you do. I think we start by documenting what we have and creating a pattern library. Our plan is to use inline documentation to generate a pattern library eventually but right now we're starting small and we're manually making a few guide pages because we need to see what our needs actually are before we settle on a tool, right? We don't want our tool to inform, you know, to define I guess I should say our direction but rather what our needs are helps us define what the tool should be. So we need to settle on a documentation standard and a parsing tool and that will come as we figure out those things that we need. There are a lot of really specific styles right now as you saw a lot of our CSS really genuinely looks like that. So this documentation effort will be a moving target.  But through further steps then we can take this pattern library that is the documentation of what we have and then we can turn the pieces of it that we see recurring into reusable UI components. Establishing these components enables us to provide developers with the resources that they need to build consistent and usable interfaces in their extensions since we typically think user first that's enabling users to have this usable consistent experience but it also serves as a base for automated testing. So we have lots of grand ideas for testing but the most important piece for us is visual regression testing, visual diffs. Each piece in the pattern library will have a screenshot that's committed to the test suite and each run of the test suite will see what's changed between your working copy and the central repository itself. So if you're testing somebody's patch you can see if something's changed. If you're working on a patch you can see if you've created adverse effects. So not only does this help us catch mistakes as reviewers but it helps contributors feel more confident about their patches. When I talk to people today about what holds them back from contributing the number one thing besides time because that's what happens to all of us but the number one technical thing is that they're afraid that the CSS that they're changing has effects that they didn't catch because it's so weird and huge and windy and we don't know what else is it changing in the admin and that's something that I think that visual regression testing would ease quite a bit. We actually, really exciting for me was pushing to get this done before this talk. So in the past week we've got it running as a proof of concept. So we're using a plugin to experiment with pattern library approaches and within that same plugin we're testing out visual regression testing if we're using fantasy assess for that right now and that's really exciting for me. So after that or alongside that really comes naming and cleaning. When it comes to naming things we want to name things in ways that communicate intent to developers like state naming or classes that are specific to JavaScript use that shouldn't be used in a styling context that kind of thing. We have often found ourselves locked into names or not being able to use selectors or even consciously breaking some small number of plugins because they've used a selector that we didn't originally intend for the purpose that they've now used it for and without a solid defined naming convention that says these are the selectors that are used in this context and these are selectors that are used in that context that don't do that for X thing. We can't blame them. We can't be like, well it's your fault. It's actually our fault for not having been purposeful about our naming in the first place. Our current state of naming conventions in CSS is basically we're still painting the bike shed. If you haven't heard that term, you should look it up. I think I guess it's pretty common talking about just endless debates about small things, painting the bike shed for everybody to participate. So I think we've picked a few final swatches or something but I anticipate a lot of lively conversations as we figure out what works best for us as a project and also the larger developer ecosystem who really could do whatever they want but they tend to like to follow sort of like a central community standard. Then we can utilize all of our testing, tooling, the guidelines and then we can clean up the CSS that we have file by file. So once we have the basic things in place and have that tooling in place to help with the cleanup effort, we'll look at things like winters, automated property ordering, I think like CSS comb and things like that do that. Even accessibility checks, just checking for contrast between foreground color and background color. Other types of front end testing like acceptance testing, that sort of thing that we talked about earlier and even performance metric tracking, checking out our time to render, how things are handled on scroll. This gets more into total front end performance as opposed to like just the CSS itself but also how our selectors doing, how much are we doing in these files. I think we'll likely actually move away from using a preprocessor in the form of SAS right now to handle our color schemes and we'll probably move to something like CSS Next and post-CSS and use CSS variable spec so that when we get to that future, we're ready. It's not because like preprocessors are like a bad thing. A lot of it is because we are really just using it for color variables, which is a ridiculous way to have to include a preprocessor for that. But it also just sort of doesn't align with like our current state as a project and our CSS. And it doesn't really align with our expectations of prospective contributors. Our more modern JavaScript, like our media library uses backbone. We use Browserify to build our JavaScript for the media files. And that's because we expect contributors to that area to have experience with those types of tools because it's more complicated, it's more modern. But we don't have that same expectation for contributors to CSS. And really, CSS is one of the first places people can feel comfortable making small changes to. We also always have to be evaluating those tools that we use. So like I mentioned, CSS Janus stopped being maintained and so we moved to RTL CSS. I think like the most common CSS linter that was out there stopped being maintained. So now we have to think about what we can use today. So we think a lot about how they're maintained, how we relate as open source projects. We have to test the output of some of these libraries. So we also test minified files. So we test our development files and we test minified files because sometimes things happen between them. We have to make sure that a given library, a given tool is still useful to us. And then we have to be evaluating what else we might need because the web is constantly changing. So as Run DMC said, it's tricky. There are many moving parts and many unknowns for us.  And the vast majority of them are volunteering that time. Our past few releases, like including the I led 4.0, they've counted nearly 300 unique contributors a piece. Some of them shared between releases. It's still 300 unique contributors per release. So when you have a lot of those volunteers, it's really important to give them specific tasks so that they can efficiently use their time and feel like they've accomplished a really specific thing with that time that they are donating to you. Some people work really well with just having sort of a general vague direction, you know, like take charge and take the range and go, but it's definitely not the majority. In fact, I think it's a very small minority of people who are comfortable with just sort of going with a vague direction. It can be really frustrating to work on efforts like the one that I've outlined here because things don't always visibly change to give you that sense of like gratification and hey, look, this is what I worked on. This is the difference that I made in WordPress. And in fact, since a huge part of our goal is to clean up while maintaining at least some amount of backwards compatibility with what exists, little to nothing actually will probably change visibly in our production software except for the code itself. So there are a lot of things that can shape the future of WordPress contributors, different features, that sort of thing. So they're things like the JSON REST API that are in development. I'm helping lead a Fields API initiative which that's on sort of a PHP side but also JavaScript templating and how we handle forms of JavaScript and then the UI for forms and how Fields are used in different contexts around an admin or elsewhere. Responsive images as we've talked about today and so on. I'm really excited about all of those things. Generally I am and as a lead developer it's sort of my job to be excited about them I guess. When I combine all of those things that I've been working on for the past several years and combine that with what motivates me the most in software which is user experience of both your end users and your developer users. This really long and intense roadmap for CSS which could take another few years and I'm comfortable with that. But what that roadmap does and what it enables is my future of WordPress. Thank you.
