Hi, Gerald Friedman, Professor of Economics at the University of Massachusetts. We're here to talk about labor demand in the orthodox model. The neoclassical demand for labor. And this is based on the idea that you hire workers whenever you can make money off them. Kind of might seem pretty obvious. They actually go a little further and it's kind of neat. And it starts with the marginal product of labor, which we call the MPL. The marginal product of labor. The amount that an additional worker adds to your total output, presumably the marginal product of labor falls when you add additional workers. This is the basic premise of the whole theory. You have a certain amount of land, you have a certain amount of machinery, equipment, whatever. You want to increase output. The way you do it is by adding workers. In the short run, you can't add land. By definition, you can't add machinery. What you add is workers. So, your first worker is out there, say picking strawberries. They're a big field of strawberries. The worker goes along, picks the most convenient strawberries, puts them in the basket, moves on. Gets a lot of strawberries. Maybe 20 quarts. Second worker, you're doing really well. So, you think you'll get another worker. Second worker comes in and that worker, it's not as easy. That's to maybe lift up some leaves. Have you ever done a strawberry picking? This is what happens. You go underneath, you get the strawberry plants that aren't as easily accessible. Total output goes up to 35 quarts. The second worker adds 15 quarts of strawberries to the 20 that the first worker picked. Third worker, it's a little harder. Total output goes up to 45. 10 quarts. Fourth worker only adds 8 quarts. Fifth worker only adds 7. We can keep going and you see where this is heading. That may be worker number 10 or something. No extra output. You're completely maxed out how much you can produce by adding workers to the existing amount of land, etc. How many workers do you want to hire? You're not paying workers strawberries. You're paying workers in dollars and your profit is not in strawberries. How many strawberries can you eat before you start getting allergic or something? Get hives and itchy and no good. You want money. You sell the strawberries for, say, $10 a quart. First worker gives you $200. Second worker, $150. You see where this is going. But the fifth worker, you're getting $70, which is still pretty good. How many workers do you hire? Depends on the wage. You have this column. Say your workers are paid $100. Hire the first worker, $200 output, cost you $100. Bingo. Second worker, $150 output. Do it. Third worker, $100. Stop. You hire at $100 wage. You hire three workers. Total output at a wage of $100, 45 quarts of strawberries. What happens if wages go down? Say they become dropped to $70. Hire five workers. Total output goes up. Wages rise. Maybe they go up to $200. Because Debbie's here, and so you want higher wages. So you go up to $200. Hire only one worker, 20 quarts of strawberries. Higher wages, fewer workers. Lower wages, more workers, and more output. More productive workers make this column bigger numbers. More workers get hired at any wage. Less productive workers, fewer workers at any wage. The only way to get the same number of workers hired is to lower the wage. That is the orthodox theory of labor demand. Thank you.


Welcome back to my channel. So today I thought it would be fun to do a video on five pets that I would really like to have in the future. I've seen a lot of these on YouTube and I think they're really fun and kind of just give you some insight into kind of like a pet keeper's mind and other things that they're interested in besides just the pets that they have. So today I'm going to be talking about that. Before I get too far into this video, if you are new to my channel, please hit the subscribe button, hit the like button, and make sure to turn on notifications so you don't miss an upload if you do enjoy this video. I make new pet related videos every Friday. A lot of them having to do with these guys behind me. So I have six guinea pigs and then two bunnies that you can see right there behind me. But yeah, subscribe if you would like and let's go ahead and talk about the five pets that I would really like to own one day. So first up, this is the first one's going to be kind of like a two part sort of ish thing. You'll see what I mean. So I would really like to own a chameleon one day. I think they're really cool. I like that they have little mitt in hands. I just think they're really pretty and I think their care is really interesting. I've done, honestly, I've watched a ton of videos, done a lot of research on chameleons, even though I'm not planning on getting one anytime soon because I just think they're really, really interesting animals. That being said, I have no experience with reptiles whatsoever. So I would never jump into getting a chameleon right off the bat because they are very advanced reptiles. They need specific humidity, all of that stuff. So I wouldn't want to, you know, jump into reptile keeping with such an advanced animal. So this is kind of the two part that I was talking about. I would really like to own a crested gecko and I would like to get one of those more in the near future. It's not going to be like in the next couple months or anything like that, but I would like to get a crested gecko as my first reptile to kind of ease me in and kind of get used to, you know, reptile keeping before. I mean, there honestly would probably be other stepping stones between there, between crested gecko and chameleon, but that is what my thinking is at the moment. I have done a lot of research on crested geckos and I would really, really like to get one of those. So that is kind of the first and second pet on this list. So I'm going to count those as two because I would really like to have a crested gecko and I really would like to have a chameleon one day. Next up on this list is again, kind of not just like one animal, but I would really like to have a reef tank. I love fish. I think a fish was my first pet. I had beta fish throughout the years. I have always like just really liked fish. I love going to the aquarium, but I never was really in the situation that I could have, you know, a nice big fish tank. So I would really at some point like to set up a really big saltwater fish tank. Again, I have no experience with saltwater tanks at all, but so I would definitely, you know, start with something small to get used to it, not go, you know, flow out into a huge reef tank or anything like that. But I would like to have some type of reef tank one day. I actually am planning on here in the near future doing a aquarium setup because I just really would like to have some fish again. I'm not sure exactly what it's gonna be, but here's a little, you know, sneak peek a little bit of there is gonna be some aquarium videos coming sometime soon-ish. I'm not gonna say like again, not in the next couple months, but soon-ish. So again, not really a specific animal, but I would really really like to have a nice big beautiful reef tank one day. There is a bunny under my camera right now, and he is chewing on the tripod, so if the camera is shaking, that would be the reason why. Mr. Andy, what are you doing? His hayrack is right behind my tripod, so he is very curious on why there's something in his way to his food. Alright, number four on this list is a Pac-Man frog. I only recently, well I say recently, but in like the last year or so, even heard of Pac-Man frogs as pets. That is a thing that people keep, but the couple channels that I've seen that have them that talk about their care, they just look like fun little things. Like they don't do anything, you just feed them and they dig a hole. Like I just think they're funny. I think they're little and fat and cute, and I think it would be interesting. My whole thing with having animals is I like learning about their care and you know their diets and their housing and all that stuff, so I just think it would be a fun, I don't want to say easy because you know all animals are a commitment, but kind of more of like a low stress animal than you know guinea pigs that need extensive spot cleaning every day, something like that. Pac-Man frogs don't have quite the same day-to-day needs I guess I should say, but I just think they're funny.  Don't get a pet because it's a pretty color, but I just think they're funny. I like watching other people's channels that have them. I just think they're really funny, interesting little animals and I would really like to learn more about them and possibly get one one day. And sorry that apparently all of the guinea pigs are having an argument right now and they are all squeaking in the background of my video. What are you guys doing? Now they're gonna settle down because I pointed it out. Finally the fifth animal on this list is a hamster. So I have had several hamsters in the past. I think they're great fun little pets. They also have a lot of interesting care and different things that they like. Every hamster has its own personality on what it likes and doesn't like and that is something I would like to have a hamster not in like the near future, but one day I would like to have one. I think their care is also often overlooked the same as guinea pigs and rabbits. So that is something that I like to research and stay up on just because I know like for example the Tiny Tails cages and how bad for hamsters they are. That is just something that's talked about a lot and I do like to stay up on stuff like that. But I just I really like hamsters. I think they're really interesting. I live vicariously through other channels that have hamsters because it's just I mean you can see this room right now. There's nowhere that we could put a hamster cage that would be big enough for a hamster, but that is a pet that I would like to have in the future. Like I said I've had them in the past and I think they're great little pets and now that I know so much more about them I think I would really enjoy setting up a habitat and learning what the hamster liked and all of those different things. So the final and fifth the fifth and final animal on this list is a hamster. So to recap all of those I said chameleon, crested gecko, pac-man frog, oh my gosh I already forgot what the heck I said, chameleon, crested gecko, reef tank, pac-man frog and hamster. So those are all very different kind of animals. I know a chameleon and a crested gecko are both reptiles but they also have very different care. They're very different animals so those are the five animals that I would really like to own one day. Again none of these are things that are coming anytime soon but like I mentioned there may be an aquarium set up coming soon but you guys will have to wait and see what's coming with that. So thank you guys so much for watching I hope you enjoyed this video and getting to hear a little bit more about some animals that I would like to own in the future. Like I said I think these videos are pretty interesting because they kind of give you a little bit of a glimpse into other animals that somebody might like. You might not have known that I really like fish or that I would like to own a reptile so I hope you enjoyed getting to hear a little bit more about that. I will put any relevant links down in the description box and up in the cards will be some other videos if you want to keep looking at some pet things. So thank you guys again so much for watching. Make sure you subscribe if you are new to my channel and you enjoyed this video and I will see you guys in the next one. Bye!


Hello, I'm Mike McKee, the Bishop of the North Texas Conference of the United Methodist Church. One of my favorite holidays, if not my favorite, is Thanksgiving. It's the time in which we gather friends and family around the table. And while we may eat too much, we're aware that we do that because we're expressing gratitude to our God. It's during the coming weeks as we prepare to celebrate that holiday in our country, in our homes and out in the community. I want you to invite you to think about what it means to be a person of gratitude and to understand what it means to live as a person who is totally devoted to our God and is grateful to our God for each and every good blessing in our lives. And during this time, I'd like for us to think about creating a culture in the North Texas Conference, a culture of what it means to be a servant. Grateful for what God has done for each one of us. We then acknowledge that we have the opportunity to express gratitude to our God by being God's servant in the community. And so as you gather around the table, express to God your deepest gratitude. But grounded in that gratitude, would you make a vow in a covenant to be a person who will be a servant in the world? May you have a blessed Thanksgiving.


The House of Representatives has proposed punitive measures for bankers involved in fraud and practices in their workplace and found culpable. The proposed legislation was sponsored by Honorable E. J. Rohene Y. V. Under the proposed legislation, those found guilty could be jailed for a term from 10 to 20 years in addition to forfeiture of their assets. The Speaker of the House, Fermi Bajabiamila, represented by the House Leader, Honorable Adodogua urged stakeholders to work together with the committee to come up with a strong legislation that will boost the banking sector. Change, culture change, the law also change to ensure that our system does not become susceptible to the machinations of bad actors. So our purpose here is to work together as legislators and major stakeholders in this sub-sector to consider and strengthen legislations that are helpful tool in ensuring that operators in the banking system act with utmost integrity, taking care to avoid able appearance of corruption or backhand dealing. Since by the provisions of the Central Bank Act, it is the Central Bank that exercises regulatory control, supervises and issue guidelines to all banks and other financial institutions as specified in the principle act. It is therefore justifiable and naturally should be the appropriate authority to require bank employees to declare their assets and it is the Central Bank also that should take further steps to verify such declaration and it is the Central Bank that may ensure the enforcement of the provision of this act in case of any breach by any employee of any of the banks under its control. Due to the intention of the amendment bill to include all financial institutions under the purview of other regulatory, other regulators for the application of the act, we suggest a change in the title of the act from Bank Employee Declaration of Asset Act to Financial Institution Employee Declaration of Asset Act. Consequential amendment bill should be made accordingly, Mr Chairman. Proposed amendment to section 1 of the principle act which provides into earlier that an employee shall declare his assets, including assets of his spouse and of married children under 18, immediately after assuming duty. Another view is that this amendment should be limited to the assets of the bank employee alone as it may not be feasible for the employees to make full declarations in relation to his or spouse's assets for various reasons such as where he or she is not aware that the spouse has acquired an asset or dispose of an asset. We do adopt part of the submission made by Central Bank where it highlighted the area of changing the title of the bill from Bank Employees to Financial Institutions Employees ETC Act. We're also seeking for the extension of the application of this bill to cover the designated non-financial institutions in addition to the financial institutions. This is part of the designated non-financial institutions. Those that have been designated, this is one of the submissions we have made. As it relates to the appropriate authority, the EFCC is seeking to be the appropriate authority to receive these declarations.


Hey everyone, Drew with GeoArm and I am back to talk to you about the Sensor Settings menu and just how you get there and access it. Alright, go ahead and hit the hamburger icon, okay, you hit Devices, you go to the specific group, the device exists within, in my case it's Doors, and then I'll choose my garage door here. This is the menu for your sensors, for your specific sensor here, and it will have the different options, as you can see, the name there, the alias, whether you want the voice enunciation on, whether or not you want the chime to be enabled, the sensors type, the signal of the device, which is a very useful tool when you're putting your sensors in place, so make sure you check that, the serial number of the device, and whether or not you want to delete it there. And also, don't forget about the toggle option to make it active or inactive. Say the device has a low battery and it's just annoying you, you want to make it to where it's not bothersome anymore, you can just go ahead and disable that temporarily until you replace the battery, then when you're ready to, you can flip that switch again. Alright, ladies and gentlemen, that is a brief rundown of the Sensor Settings menu within the GeoArm Control Panel. If you guys have any questions or comments, please leave them below.

Whoa textures. What are you doing? So they're all on this this outside row here. Actually, that's what it looks like Time lurk. All right, food. I don't like that message Okay, gave me beta in a way. All right. Good. You see that Even though it was full. I still was able to get the beta Cuz it probably gave me one beta and one alpha Okay, that makes me feel better. I feel better now apparently Apparently Okay, I got beta again. I really feel like I'm missing something over here But they seem to be just on these outside rows. I always don't trust it. I'm like, come on. It's gotta be more. All right. Here we go Again Stop trying to scare me and scare me. Is that epsilon is epsilon? We're probably below 20 now, right? Delta and gamma Yeah, we're 18 Epsilon 18 out of 78 wish I was making that up. I need 78 total gamma and beta on my alphas Okay, again, the grind is real Yeah, ma I must have been an alpha. Yeah It's only I'm probably gonna get to that point, too Especially at this site since I don't get the 15 second time out. It's probably less fun to watch just Doing that though And there's only four so it's not that bad Good thing this site is very very friendly to drive around unlike that other place. Oh man That thing made me want to just flip my SUV permanently There's only four here. So and They're pretty close to each other Epsilon there we go. There's another one. Hey, this is so picky about the range. Oh good grief Beta that must be alpha because I'm full on alpha. I'm at sinif you sinif you XR dash H D11 dash 102 Sinif you since sin if a XR dash H D 11 Dash 102. I am at sinif if a XR dash H D 11 dash 102 Sinif a XR dash H D 11 dash 102 Excesses XR dash H D 11 dash 102 Got it. I repeated like that because I would need it to be repeated that many times Hey, put me right here Yeah, Mike's gamma-gamma Yeah, the pain is real, right? I Know right now It's just I can get over the things that I know me about the SRV mainly are just the random sliding It seems to be very random. I don't see any kind of pattern to the sliding and No clipping. He's just randomly no clip through stuff and get stuck on things. That's the only thing on life Everything else is okay. I mean, you could be going straight. Just like right now. Okay. Why am I sliding? It's like you It just seems really random What's up sugar and anti chibi welcome guys. I Am farming for some obelisk data Some epsilon obelisk data for these new fighters that just came out and a 3.2 update of a leak dangerous All right, that's beta. Oh, so it must be alpha Delta and beta beta and gamma Let me try something. How's the new ship? I tried it and The only thing wrong with it is the crate If you can understand my meaning, let me see if it puts me right in front of this again It's like it's a decent ship But I'm like if there's nothing about it that convinced me to use it over the crate Because I think in that situation that I had, you know that you would use it the crate is also Probably gonna be better, you know, I haven't looked at the price difference That's the only thing I didn't look at any look at the prices and all that kind of stuff beta Yeah, I mean And I like to create a lot So after seeing that and after using the ship I engineered it a little bit and I flew it around I didn't do any combat. I flew it around. I was like I prefer to create So I'm just gonna use the crate Epsilon. Whoo. How many we're up to now? epsilon hype Pattern data epsilon we're up to 24 out of 78 We need a total of 78 chat and we have 24 Yeah, I'm talking about the crusader. Yeah Yeah, the crate is King medium. I mean Python was King medium, but Crate is just so good. It's I mean, I love the Python so much I always I always hesitate to say that the crate is better than the Python, but right now I prefer to use The crate over the Python for most everything the crate see our K. R. A. I. T. crate not Crip Crip creeps not a Crip Not a crepe Crepes are pretty good though. Got any creeps. They aren't delicious. I agree and Epsilon. Whoo. Got another line height. Do I say Chris? Epsilon. Whoo We're getting there slowly, but surely tank hero 2015 Seven months in a row. What audience of the guy Alex Thank you so much for the support everybody shows him love in the chat mr Tanker row seven months in a row appreciate it dude. Thank you so much God, I didn't stop the guy Alex see How many epsilon needs 70 78? I Need 78 epsilon and I need it for the new fighters that just came out there 26 epsilon per fighter So I need a total of 78 and I have probably like 20 27 or 30 now, I think we'll check now. I think I have 30 and I need 78 You get three per scan if you get it and That's gamma so I didn't get that time Pattern Epsilon I have 30 Yeah, I've 30 and I need 78 Gamma Siding gameplay chat. Oops. I'm here. I don't think anybody chat has them yet I asked nobody spoke up anybody have the new fighters yet and how are they Delta? Hey, baby busy Babe, I'll be right back guys. I'm taking a break. I'll be right back. Thanks so much for watching Feel free to follow the stream if you're enjoying yourself.  Well, actually, I'll be a back about three minutes So thanks for watching. I'll be right back Full how dare you but it gave me Epsilon. Whoo. So now I have 33. I'll be right back guys. Thanks so much Thanks for waiting guys are awesome. Okay Back to the grind again the ground again got my coffee on ice Basically just took it put in a mason jar with some ice I cool off a little bit. It's a cool refreshing drink Nice cold coffee and coffee doesn't go the way so I know people that throw away coffee once it gets cold I'm like nah, man. Get some ice cubes Especially if you want to still drink it. Well, that was alpha Some ice cubes man. Is it music playing? This is just a quiet song.  I just have a water bottle ice on my desk. Hey, man. I Am mad at you. Hello, Chris hitting the button Everybody saw some love the chat 23 months one month away from two years boop Thank you, buddy. How you doing, man?  It is it is I Like cold brew. I don't understand the differences though people like we cold brew our coffee in the mountains of Mount Doom and on planet Zax law our coffee is encased in dry ice for Three millennia. You know, I'm just like what's the difference? I don't I guess it's like beer Hey, I know is thanks for the rate, buddy. How you doing? I keep mispronouncing your name. I Feel so bad.  How you doing? Wow expansion consume your free time again. Oh, Chris. I'm sorry. You've succumbed to the wow I know this is all good in the list I was I am from a coffee family Sarah. I will do You never broke free, oh Part of me wishes I could get into wow but Cuz so many people love it and I just I can't share the love. It's like your enthusiasm is Like contagious. It's like man. Wow. Wow updates coming out. Yay. Yay. Do you play it? You like and then I play it? I'm like Right, this is awesome, right? I I just I don't know it didn't click with me, man I Wish it that though cuz too many people I know love wow. I just can't I tried ten times I'm sure they said feel the same way about elite and warframe and stuff that I play My enthusiasm can be contagious and they just people just don't get it Gemma Why was my internet drug when it came out? Then the game got easy and it got easier and easier with each expansion not going back to this expansion Maybe that's what it was like the challenge of wow was to me Like rates, you know Rush lock with other hosts. Thank you so much, buddy. I Think the challenge was a raise but and at the end of the day they became easy Like quickly because the mechanics were the whole thing and wow was really it's still pretty good at making Like Dungeons and you know dungeon mechanics and that kind of stuff and raid mechanics. They're good at that stuff. It's just that once you got it You got it I can say the same by Final Fantasy 14 once you got it You got it, you know You go to mythic and then you just it's just a matter of not getting hit, you know Not standing in the red and the mechanics might be a little bit harder And you got to be super geared out to do damage on the DPS checks, and you know, it's like it's like rinse and repeat That's why I like sandbox stuff more often because it could be a little bit more unpredictable Because there's another player on the other side of that stuff But at the same time sandbox stuff is becoming predictable like I'm hoping for crowfall to be a difference but it's like That stuff has become gamma obelisk is now full too. Wow and I got it up. I got it up salon. Whoo I don't know man. We used to make fun a while. I was a Final Fantasy 11 player and we used to make fun of it How? It was a lot of hand-holding even in wild vanilla. We thought it was easy But that was more of a immature Elated attitude we had in that game because we had link shell members that would leave for a while and we used to give them a hard time It's like all the baby wavy loves is why we buy we buy we shut up. I'm addicted I can't stop playing El Huapo. What's up, man? Oh, El afar. I remember that El afar That was a joke. It still is a joke. I don't know how that made it in that game I was like really all you have to do is this and you get gear what I know I'm at up. I'm at a point now where I'm like Taking a break from MMOs. It's gonna bite me again. I know it is but I have these ups and downs where I'm like craving an MMO I play it for a while and then I stop for a year or six months and I go back and You know It's just it's sad that there's hardly any Western MMOs being made It's like what we got we got Crowfall on the other one but I've been I back crow fall so I'm all over crow fall and It's like other than that. Everything is Korean ports It's like Eastern ports and it's like we haven't had a proper Western MMO since like with a large budget Since what yes, so since elder scrolls And it's like You know wild start tried they tried to be hardcore and it was too hardcore Because people didn't want to do all this up epsilon. Whoa, we got another one Yeah, most Western MMO makers have moved to mobile and battle Royale They follow the money and crow fall. I think crow falls being really smart I was worried about them until they announced another epsilon. Whoo Um The day announced that they were going to be licensing their engine to other MMO makers out there So their sole source of revenue is not going to be the game They're gonna did basically the stuff they're working on now is going to be resold to somebody else use Which is going to be a very smart thing for investors That's probably why they're getting so much money on there on their investor rounds That's really smart because if the game fails so what you still got your they're going the epic route We're gonna license our engine per se I can't remember the name of the other game that's like in competition with with With crow fall is it it's from the makers of DAOC, right? I can't remember the name of it for some reason You just got 14 inches of rain. Wow Camelot unchained that's it. Yeah, that's it Camelot unchained That's the one That's looking pretty decent too. They're taking their time with that though. They're taking their time They're trying to get it right and I like that the thing out of the worrisome about crow fall a little bit Is that the the large scale fights still seem pretty janky and if they're


All right, next progression in our handstand preparation work. We just did a backwards bear crawl and now to increase the challenge on the rib cage position and on the shoulders, we're going to move your hands in line. So I like this one because I need more protraction of my shoulder blades. They need to swing around more. And if I have that protraction, then I can reasonably assume that I have flexion as well. So that's the thing that makes your arm go over ahead. Okay, so I'm here, I'm going to set hands in line and it's the same execution. Again, small modification, we just perform it the same way. I'm going to find my abs, push myself away from the ground. This one's much harder, at least for me. And just like that. You've got to keep your hands on a little tight rope there. That is the hands in line backwards bear crawl.


Hello everyone, welcome to the Jenkins infrastructure weekly team meeting. Today we are the 25 of October 2022. So during that virtual meeting, hi Damien DuPortal, we have Hervé Lemur, Marc White is in holidays, Stéphane Merl is there, and we have... We have Stéphane Merl... Bruno Varton, sorry. Yeah, I need to sleep a bit. Okay, let me share with you the link to the share notes that could be useful. It's added in the Zoom chat. Okay, first of all, announcements. First announcement, the weekly... it was successful on release CI Jenkins.io. So if I'm not mistaken and we can check on the screen recording, then it's visible on the website. So the version... that version is available, at least the war file released, war packages. The Docker image is ready. I've triggered the build manually just before our call. So I assume that the last release item to be done later as usual, such as the changelog. Is there any question? Nope, cool. Announcement, we had a security release last week. Thanks for the huge work that the security team did on that one. That was plugins, only plugins. Thanks, Stéphane, for handling the dates everywhere. So we have been able to deploy plugins on our controller, except CI Jenkins.io. That was part of the security advisory itself. But for the other, in less than 24 hours, we had everything up to date. Thanks for that. It's a kind of business as usual, but it's still positive to mention it, that we can keep up to date with these elements. Security update last week, plugins only. Okay, do you have other announcements on your home, folks? Just one note, next the weekly meeting next week. Thanks, Stéphane, for reminding me just before the meeting. I will be cancelled because the 1st of November is an unwalking day for most of the European countries, as far as I can tell. So unless people in the US want to run the meeting, it's cancelled because the four of us there won't be available. I don't know if it's between states or if the US, if it's a work there in the US, I have no idea. So pardon my in-culture. It's a Christian old sense date. So the weekly meeting cancelled the 1st of November, which means we'll see each other the 7th of November. That will also, that's a reminder that the upcoming milestone will have to take an account that it will be a two-week milestone instead of only one week. Is there any question? Nope, okay. Upcoming calendar, next weekly 1st of November. So that will be monitored by our US colleagues if they are working that day. Otherwise, Mark and I will be the fallback as the default page of the default back in case of issue. Next LTS, I think it's the 5th of November, if I'm not mistaken. Let me check. I'm going to check on community events. There is a nice calendar here. Now, that would be the 2nd of November. That free. I don't think there is no expectation from us. No security release announced. And next major event, no next major event. Did I forget something? Or is it okay for everyone? Okay. Time to switch to what did we close or finished during the past milestone? A bunch of permissions issues or account recovery. I don't think it's worth spending sometimes unless you have questions. So deleted accounts as usual when someone request a password, reset or a deletion or permission always check that they are who they seek. Would they tell us they have. So you have to validate either GitHub account and or Jenkins account. Never do it only on that one. If you are unsure, please ask the others. There is no shame on that. Better to be safe. Thanks again, LV and Alex for working out the upcoming deprecision of GitHub action set output system. So now it's sound like everything has been done. Thanks for everyone involved on helping the contributor who lost their accesses. So we had chief frog issues last Friday. We had held up outage last Friday as well. And we had people who didn't read carefully the the instruction for plugin maintainer when they do a maven release from the machine. And we had a misconfiguration. That one is important to note in artifactory that led one of the documentation to be a wrong. Let me show you the page. Here we are. Okay, so on the page performing a plugin release manually. You have the UI way, which is the recommended de facto way you have to log in on artifactory, which is a good way to accept and test your password. Is it the correct password? Do you have access to artifactory? And then you have to follow carefully these steps. And when I say carefully, I mean it. It's not just, I mean, you read each word twice, each sentence twice, and then you follow up the instruction. Of course, anyone interested since October 1st, anyone interested on adding screenshots or helping maintaining that page that will be helpful. That just to note. So artifactory is able to generate the correct maven settings for you that you can download even with encrypted password. So you have to use it by default. Also, there is an API endpoint on artifactory that allows you to download that settings XML already prepared for you. That was the alternative. However, that URL was answering unauthorized for everyone, including the admins except one or two persons that were the initial creator. That was because the one settings was changed a few months before and no one noticed. So thanks Daniel Beck for fixing that. So now it's still, it's working again confirmed by the end user. Wanted to mention that because some contributor have issues, but most of the time 99% of the time we have to point them to that documentation and tell them to validate that. Half of the time they can't even log into artifactory. So that's that mean they have to reset the password on the LDAP and wait for the token to be synchronized. What did we have? So there were some non-infra related thing as same link missing for several plugins. So data center was generating unexpected data for six plugins, which broke the plugin sites for some of these plugins. So it has been fixed by a numerous people. Thanks a lot. Thanks Stefan for the huge work on CIG and Kinsayo. So we have the matrix. There is a new help desk issue. If you are a developer contributor, you want to ask the infra team for matrix about an agent behavior either because you had issue if you want to check nose. That allows us now to make assumption and we are going to be able to fine tune the machine based on the workload because we will have matrix for that. So really nice work Stefan. Next thing is that we cannot use Datadog dashboards because as soon as they are public, we lose the feature of selecting machines on the drop down and we don't have a search feature. So if anyone has is a Datadog employee or hardcore user and have a solution, we are all here. But it looks like we will have to build a custom application such as a graph and a dashboard that will be dedicated to only CIG and Kinsayo matrix particularly machines. That could be also interesting to see open telemetry things there because graph and as tempo or Jaeger support and we can even have big logs. So maybe starting a platform and observability platform only for CIG and Kinsayo that will be public alongside could be interesting. It's not the top priority for the team. But if anyone wants to go put their foot on that topic, I heard some people were interested as part of the fact of the fest, but that might span a bit more than that. But you are welcome. Speaking about, we removed the Loki installation. We had a Loki installation. So that's a log collector system like Prometheus that you can view through graph and dashboard. Loki was installed on our main AKS cluster public gates. It was broken since September 2020 when we bumped version from two to three. So major version bump. There's been a lot of changes, especially that Loki is now using operators by default for managing graph and connection. And it is now running as highly available system with a pool of read and write notes, which mean we have to set up shared storage and a lot of things. Since it was broken since two months, no reason to keep that system. It was already broken a few months ago. We already reset it. So we weren't not using it. It's not about metrics. It's about logs. We weren't using log collection from our system, which means we don't have log collection and we don't use it. So nice improvement or foundation for the observability of our platform in the future. Any question about all these tasks? Did I forgot one task? Don't think so. Okay. Let's move to the open tasks then. Upgrades to I'm following from the left and I will try my best to keep the order. So upgrade to Kubernetes 1.23. Stéphane Arvet, can you give us an update? Okay. So we did the three first ones, if I remember correctly. The OKS is done. The two cluster in the OKS, the OKS and the OKS public. That went mostly, if I remember correctly.  And that was not so easy. We had a few problems with the volumes with the CSI configuration. And we still have the Azure AKS to upgrade. And that one will be an UI upgrade. But still to go. We don't hear you. Sorry. Do we have a date time proposed for Azure or did you, or I assume you might not have had the time to plan it? We didn't plan it. No. Don't forget that we will have a long weekend and I might not be available Friday.  I do mind. You don't do anything tonight, isn't it? I got planned for me tonight. Sorry. I got planned every night. I'm a party boy. Okay. Thanks a lot for this work. Another reminder Azure. No, it's not as digital ocean is going to drop the 1.22 Kubernetes version from their system. So that means end of October. So next week, our version of digital ocean would have been unsupported. So that's the reason why we had to do that migration. Thanks a lot. Anything else on Kubernetes 1.23. So just a note, I will update, but it broke the new artifact caching proxy on AWS. So we are going to add an issue about the upcoming improvement. I will later be a list that coming. Yeah, but there has been an issue opened by Mark. I will add it. Okay. And that's all for me. So I assume we add this one for next milestone, right? Oh, I forgot to create the milestone. But is that correct? It's a two week milestone. Don't forget when you create it. Yep. Milestone. Team. Think. 2011. Oh, seven. Yep. Oh, eight. Sorry. Oh, eight. Yes. Okay. So let's add it to the next milestone. Do we agree where you're going to continue working on that? Yes. So just a note, the changelog, the task list here has been opened with everything we, all the issues and challenges we had. So I'm particularly proud of your work folks there because I'm sure next time that will be clearly improved. Thanks for that. Okay. Next item, artifact download failed on agent using repo cache. So that's the one that was caused. In part, in part. Ah, interesting. Yep. So this is good. Mark opened an issue because the build of many of the plugin I've installed activated the certificate caching proxy failed. The one put in the shoe was running on the AWS proxy. So, which was out down so it failed directly. So, as temporary measure, we removed the AWS from the available provider in the pipeline library function. The build plugin function. And now to fix that, we have many things to do in place. The first one will is there is a pull request open to to be able to define the available proxy provider with a global environment variable defined on the tankings controller. So, for Seattle tankings that I owe, we can easily disable or enable one of the provider if we have an issue or maintenance on them. Instead of modifying the outcoded value in the pipeline library. Dynamically, instead of. I will add ceiling to this. Cool. That was static code in pipeline library. Thanks for that one. You say it partially. Yeah, because I've also noticed since Friday, I've had I restarted some build because it failed. They received. 504. From the policy. I didn't have the time to activate the data dog metrics and log collection. I've added to the artifact caching proxy and charts. Okay. Enable data dog. Logs on metrics on ACP. Cool. And so one part will be to check what what causes error. And then on the pipeline library, I tend to to implement help sake on the proxy. For that I've merged a project request to expose the else pass with an additional address for the engines proxy without the basic authentication. So we don't need to have the credential in the pipeline library as they are managed by the config file provider again. Okay. And so I'll check I'll implement the file back. I can never be checking the proxy response responding. If not, using the to frog. Cool. May I let you transplant once you will be finished these elements on the issue that mark opened. Just so we have a note of the meetings and we have actionable items on the desk issues. And also something we discussed together I'm adding a maybe we could see if it worked by having two replicas of each ACP instance. And then we have the application of ACP. So advantage when we are so the fallback is the first thing when the service is broken. And the second one is a protection once a build started and starts using the proxy. If we don't speak about the five or four error that are only temporary I assume. If the build is running and at the same time someone start maintenance of the Kubernetes cluster where the current ACP is used. You want to have a load balancer that if one instance goes away it starts to the second one. So since we don't talk advantage better higher availability. Potential issue since it will use a different caching volume. We have exactly the same result, depending on which instance you are sent to. So that that will be a fine balance to find but soon it's better to have your availability for now and if it's a mistake then we can go back to that initial choice. Any question. Thanks for the work and the summary. Thanks to folks, Stefan also for the support on that area. We were, we were enough of free. That was a lot of help. So thanks a lot. Okay, so I'm moving that one on the next milestone. Oh, I closed the issue. The next one is update center 404. Did I did not receive the answer I'm going to extend my question on that topic so the subject was since the last LTS release. Someone has issue on one view of the update center is on file that I didn't know about that one was is or was named dynamic. I remember it might have been unsupported or not. I'm not sure about the status of this one. So I'm, I'm removing myself from the S&E just in case someone has some time to write there. But yeah, I will, I will try to ask further and find documentation on that topic. The person asked me directly nominatively that's why I'm removing myself just so they see if they ask help nominatively someone say yep, I'm not there even though I will, I intend to work on that one. The main thing is that we need to evaluate the criticism of this one because maybe it's something really critical. It doesn't look like but I wasn't able to have more information so we have to, we have to continue working on this one. Any question. Next one. Nothing done. Not enough time. Next one. So we had someone having issues. I think we can close the next one. So that person is using a product named Red Hat Satellites that looks like to, it's a kind of crawler that create local mirrors of the Euroma repositories, at least local inside the organization. That system was failing. Not sure why. At least, at least because some of the mirrors when downloading the Debian because it was first getting the index of the you package from Jenkins IE which work as expected. And then for each version it was downloading a copy of the day of the RPM file for each download of course they were redirected to one of our mirrors. So we're using on the items, the mirrors are not always the same, especially because all their items are removed from most of the mirrors except a few. So, some of the mirrors were still serving some of the mirrors weren't, and some of the mirrors were not on the firewall, a low list. So failing the communication when downloading the Debian files. Some say that the metadata's were also checked on each package final URL, which looks weird, but I mean, I don't know the product and it looks like they found a way to say always use the main URL for metadata's because metadata's are not cached on our mirrors. They are cached on the PKG machine, which is also pushed to people through Fastly CDN. Why don't we mirror this file because we need to be able to provide caching validation if we have a security issue that need to invalidate the package, which is a hard requirement. We can invalidate Fastly. That's automatic. Each time you change the package, the process for us for building package has the last item which is invalidate Fastly cache. We control it and it's quick and efficient. While in the case of mirrors, we cannot control the frequency on which mirrors are updating it. We could still add the metadata to the mirrors because we own the mirror redirector which has a hash of a given file. So if the metadata change, the hash change, so the system will be able to not serve requests to the mirrors that are not up to date. But this might still be an issue if someone decide to select one mirror. They don't have the guarantee that's the correct file. And that is the proof that people are not doing that. And the reason to keep metadata's while the file are not changing because we have a checksum for them. So I'm going to close that issue after the meeting with a message. It sounds like it was closed because unless you understand something else, it looked like the user was able to fix everything on the whole, right? Yes, it sounds like that, yes. I will update it after. To be closed, reintroduce artifact caching proxy. So, Hervé did us a nice definition, right? We had the next steps. Let me clear that milestone. So Hervé, you continue working on this one. Let me add a reference from Mark issue. So it looks good. Is there anything else to add about the artifact caching proxy? So let's continue. Another issue, I assume that should be closed. Oh no. Someone complained about one of our mirrors being too slow. I asked that person to add the query string mirror list, which shows you on your web browser what are the mirrors and which one is selected in your case because you might not have the same result as that person depending on where you are in the world. The mirroring use GOIP database. And in that case, that person is in India. And the closest mirror, geographically speaking, is in China. However, maybe it's closer, but it's clearly slower. So we, in short time, we unblocked the user. No, so no criticism there. They can use the other URL there and clearly they were faster. So that person was able to download with an acceptable rate. Thing is, we need people to provide mirrors, right? India. So we could create one on digital ocean since we have new credits. And we had also an issue. People asking for information. That's another upcoming tasks. So they have everything ready to set up a mirror. Don't know if they are going to answer because the free last person asking for that never answered back. So I propose that we close the previous issue in favor of that one. I got the thumb up on the last one. Okay. That's a good news. Okay. So they acknowledge your answer. That's, I'm happy to add that. So closing in favor of, so another issue to close. So next issue. Archive the future components. I missed this one. So you have no idea what it's about. Yeah, I was, I failed to ask you if you had the mission. If not, we can. Yes. So. Okay. No problem at all. Thanks. So then, if it's okay, I will ask someone to bear with me on this one to do it because of share admin. Otherwise, I'm sure team and Mark and Daniel have permission to admin. I'm not the only one. If any day I'm not available, but yeah. Oh, I propose we I think the share admin this issue. Yes. Yes. Good idea. But we can still, we can still do it for Alex. Thanks a lot. Next step, next issue. We had an issue. Windows ACI. So the docker windows agent with GDK were broken last week when we deployed a new version of the images. A git was absent. So it was absent from the path because I messed up one of the changes. So the root cause was was I think I mentioned the root cause we did some change and it broke the image right. The root cause was you. Yeah, but it's a little wrong because you just changed the main images in the image in the docker file and the one doesn't have the path within the path we did not have a git. We changed the base image. Yeah, we ended up, yeah, the path was incorrect as Jesse mentioned. We need some kind of acceptance test on this one or at least functional test. So that's why I'm keeping that issue opened because I would like to add in the build process for this image, a step that say okay now that the images bill run that command that command to validate a set of minimalistic expectation that we could have from any docker in bond agent, such as executing git, git should be there. Java version should be there. Maven should be there and Java default version should be the expected one, 11 or 8 or 17 in the future. So that's why this image is still open. I'm keeping that one also for an upcoming thing. So I'm adding it for the next steps. Stefan you mentioned you could have been interested on testing docker or is it okay if we pair on this one. Yes. I will give you some pointers so you should be able you should be free to try it on your home. So sorry for the inconvenience. The main reason was us updating git version. Okay. Next step Jenkins mirror so that's the one you mentioned. So the requester acknowledged waiting for them so I propose that there is no action on our sites I propose that we remove the Jenkins mirror one. We remove it from milestone and we wait for them to give us insights. Objection. Okay. Can table to get email for the password. Okay I missed this one. So sorry for that. Oh no that's one that's spawn since two weeks. So I propose as we said last week we close it without any feedback from the user looks good. Yes. Cool. Got to do it afterwards to be closed. No, feedback from a user. Okay. Next one. So I'm removing. Okay, I'm not removing this. Next one by plan step dog generator and back in the extension indexer. So was able to add the require tool on infrasci and test tested successfully one of the two. The second one failed because Java out of memory exception. Related to the GDK 11 version we used. That's my best guess because looks a lot on the one of the issue fixed on the latest Timurin 11. So next step for me is trying with the new agent because it takes three hours and instead of archiving the files. And that's the current status because it's done in CI Jenkins you which made them public. I will have to switch archiving to publish. We have a special pipeline library function that takes care of publishing inside reports the Jenkins that you web server which is publicly available. So that's one line change. And I will retrigger the bills and that should be okay. So I'm adding it to the next milestone. It's a kind of background task for me because it's since it's three to five hours build. I mean, I cannot spend all my time on this one unless someone is interested. But yeah, the next step will be as remember moving the build of Jenkins IO to use this new URL and report Jenkins and then see I Jenkins IO won't be required to be the Jenkins IO website. So here we will be able to move the Jenkins IO website generation away from trusted, at least the Chinese one, and we can move it to infraciate to fix it and have it updated. So, yes, tools. Okay. But one of the bills. Publish artifacts and reports Jenkins IO. And try new JDK 11 to avoid OOM. CI Jenkins IO job stories is not on the link pull request. So I didn't have time to spend on this one, but we were able to underline what is expected by a given for this one. Depending on what we want for an user we want CI Jenkins IO and infraciate Jenkins IO to do different things. So now the next step is Jenkins file writings we have to Jenkins files to pipelines that we need to configure. Only one is interested in working on that one. If not, I will take care of that on background as well. Okay. So I'm moving it moving it to next milestone. Requirements defined. Implement pipeline writing. Realign Jenkins CI Jenkins organization. So spoiler alert to do nothing done this week. Sorry for that. We don't have time. When those agents are so slow. So for that one, we have updated the we have updated the ACI agents. So we discovered an issue with the data volumes that use for Maven wasn't the data volume, but it was written directly on the container layered file system, which performance in IO are really poor. So that might be a partial improvement. The next step is to check the status of the windows virtual machine that we create for agent on both Amazon and Azure. And we have to check how to and to check if the IO system caching is enabled on Windows. Sounds like it should be a Windows command line to enable something, but that might be cloud related. So we have to check for both. If it's Windows only, it's one line to add on the package image provision or shell script. If it's clouds related, then we have to define for each cloud which kind of instance and which option it is when we create virtual machines. I propose to move it to infra team sync next. I don't think we will have time to work on this one. Please feel free to remove it or add a message and we can remove it if we start working on this one. I'm removing myself from the ACI. Any question back to backlog. Unless we have time to work on it. Key clock performance horrific when looking up. So Stefan and high plan to work on it today, but we were fixing the issues with the guest or the team. So that work has been delayed. So I propose that we move it to next milestone and we will find a time to work on it after finishing. But at a sub grade, is that okay for you? Yes. Because that one doesn't require me. There is a first step of retrieving information, preparing the plan. I mean, as soon as Mark or everybody or someone else than you, Stefan is able to validate the plan because always pair. Then you can proceed. You already did that. It's quite, quite easy. We'll do my best. I mean, there is absolutely no need for someone for the part of creating the new database on Terraform Azure. You can already do it and you can start getting the dump of the actual one. At least this part that absolutely in secret asynchronous, the synchronous part that require all the team to be aware is the day when we will stop key clock. Then we are migrate the data, stop the database on Amazon switch key clock deployment to the new database and see if it works. Jenkins release on RSS to Twitter. What's the status for this one? I have created the m chart to host this application on Prog public k8s. I have to fix it and then I will be able to deploy it on Prog public cluster. I have prepared a pair for that. Cool. Nice. Almost there then. Thanks a lot. So we can move it to upcoming milestone. Is it okay for you? Yes. Okay. Now, new issues that we received recently. I'm taking the most recent one. Add the reminder about Jira notification email address. Totally missed that one. It's not in command from maintenance to you. It's only triage that I'm doing here. Add a reminder to the account that the Jira. Okay, so that's a kind of feature request for the account, right? Yep. I think Danielle opened it here for having more visibility. I think because not many people are following the account. Yep. Okay. So I removed triage, but I don't think that, I mean, it's not a priority for us. Better spend our time on moving away from account, right? Yep. Okay. Next issue artifact download fail. So that one is already tracked. Password. Okay. Please. Okay. I'm adding that to the milestone just to keep track of it. But yeah, I think that would be the same. I will ask the person to provide more information and prove who they are, unless someone wants to take care of it. A new issue that came during the previous. I'm thinking just thinking about cloud. We might want to add an issue template for Acquand Recovery. With a checkbox checklist. I have made that I have provided the cyber everything. Because we have quite frequently this kind of issue. And we are asking the same thing every time. So. Yep. Good idea. No action for infrared team for now. I refer for account. Correct. So let me open an issue. Yep. To be added to new milestone. Please add an issue to add. Template for account password recovery as per every idea. Okay. So an issue that came across the last platform as I do meetings. So we don't have. Power PC 64 machines anymore. Cleanup has been started on the official Docker image. We could have an alternate solution in the future. But nothing on the upcoming weeks. So the goal for us is to clean up any mention of the PPC 64. System on our infrastructure. That one is going to be added to the next milestone. I think anyone is absolutely capable of doing that. Can you. Myself please. Yes. We spoke about that. I just forgot. No problem. So I created the issue to track it. I have listed. Why does it has to be done. I might have missed something, but at least this element will be interesting. So we have an agent definition and see agent Kim sayo to remove. The associated credential has to be removed manually on the UI. We have to update the tool definition. And the update automatic updates, because the tool definition for GDK says, oh, if it's Linux, that's the view, then use this one. If it's PPC use this one. So you have to remove that case and update CLI when checking for new GDK version, check if the PPC is available before proposing a pull request for updating. The goal is to update the same for everyone. We had documentation, I assume. And so then if we afterwards any other mention. So that one is. I did. Do we have new other issue. That one is going to be closed. We created a proposal. To add external DNS to the Kubernetes cluster with an ingress. So we would have a solution when upgrading load balancers to have automatically the artifact caching proxy being up to date. I'm adding that one to current milestone because I need to report the experimentation with it today. Some fails, some are working. It's just a kind of brainstorming issue. Once I will have my reports, then I will remove it from the milestone unless someone want to work on it. The goal is always have DNS that update itself as soon as possible if there is a new load balancer public IP. That's the goal. That will that be useful for the part where we choose to have elastic IP external IP that we keep the same. That could be a solution. Okay. Reports. To be. Updated with the IP. Experiment. For DNS update. Okay. Do we have other issues there? Your components that one is removed. Okay. Infra team sync next. No, next to portal. I think that's all. Yep. Nothing else for me. Is there anything else for you? Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks folks. So see you in two weeks. Thank you. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.


You don't have to get everything figured out in your 20s. I still remember as clear as day, someone actually told me, you must choose a career by 24. What did I do? Well, I started working my first UX job at 27 instead. According to society standard, I was pretty old. Did I let it stop me? Nope. Age is just a number. You're not too old or too young to start anything. Just embrace the journey. I'm Chris and that was my third unpopular opinion.

Because people were worshipping this lake And they were thinking that their God is this lake Because this lake is giving them life and they can just maybe fish into it And they have their food from inside this lake and the other reasons I don't know But this lake goes dry just in this night The other thing that happened in this night is that the genies And this has been revealed in the Ahadith and Jirawah and the quotations of Ahlul Bayt Maybe the human knowledge and science has got no idea about it Because this is beyond the science But through the speaking of Ahlul Bayt, we just reveal, we just take these things That after the creation of the human being, of Adam The Satan and his companions, they could just go within the skies And they could just steal the idea, to steal the messages from the angels and the other things They were just doing bad things everywhere By the birthday of the Jesus Christ, they were limited up to the fourth sky So they weren't able to go further We've got seven skies as in the Ahadith and as it is revealed And it has been described in the Ahadith But after the birthday of the Holy Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him They were more limited, those satans and those evils Until they were kept inside this world They weren't able to go further into the sky To rob and steal the knowledge and information from the angels And it has been just revealed also in the Holy Quran Lots of great things happened by the birthday of the Holy Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him And why these things happened? Because the Holy Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him is going to be born And the whole world is going to change And Islam which is the main religion in the Deen and the light Islam The main religion which Almighty has decided and chosen for all the human being Is going to be started, is going to be sent to people So people are going to find their path of guidance This is a very great event which is going to happen on the face of earth And that's why all these things happened by the birthday of the Holy Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him I have received a few messages right here You all have this great opportunity of sending your messages, salams and du'as over WhatsApp number which is on the screen And here for the first message we've got a voice message right now Right here, let's listen to this voice message from Gulnaz from India She is saying salam to Imam Hussein, alaihi salam Salam brother, Rahman Jalli Wali Kalfaraj Firstly, I congratulate Imam Zaman alaihi salam on this great occasion of the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him And specially to Imam Hussein alaihi salam for his beloved grandfather And to Bibi Zara alaihi salam for his beloved father I also congratulate Imam for the birthday of Imam Jaffer Saari Qalai salam I congratulate you and the entire team of Imam Hussein TV on this great occasion I say salam on behalf of all muminin and muminat and our respected viewers and specially on behalf of all marhumine In this blessed night, I say salam on behalf of all Assalam-o-Alaykya Abab Abdullah Assalam-o-Alaykya Abna Rasulallah Assalam-o-Alaykya Abna Mir Al-Muminin Assalam-o-Alaykya Abna Fatima Tuzahra Sayedat Nisayl Alamin Assalam-o-Alaykya Balfaz al Abbas Assalam-o-Alaykya Imam Riza alaihi salam Assalam-o-Alaykya Bibi Masum alaihi salam Assalam-o-Alaykya Imam Zaman alaihi Assalam-o-Alaykya Hussain al Abbas Hussain al Abbas, your golden dome is just in my view The shine of your golden dome is just in my view And it will always be in my eyes until I come back I ask you for the sake of your grandfather Hussain, call us back Call us back, call us back never to return to our home Insha'Allah, insha'Allah Thank you so much, sister, for this great and beautiful salam and voice message And insha'Allah, once again, you beza'r of Imam Hussain alaihi salam Here in Karbala, and be able to perform ziyarah next to Hulushan of Imam Hussain alaihi salam Everyone who is watching this live ziyarah show Please don't hesitate to send your salam, your dua, whatever you would like to say to Imam Hussain alaihi salam Over the WhatsApp number which is shown below your screen Insha'Allah, I will receive your messages and I will recite them here next to Hulushan of Imam Hussain alaihi salam I have another message right here No, these are from the groups, yes And this was the only message right here Another one, another message is only saying thank you, sir Thank you for joining us, for being zaa'r of Imam Hussain alaihi salam And unfortunately the internet connection is again so low So that's why I can't get connected to the Facebook And unfortunately even the, I think that the image of the Facebook show is freezing I've got no idea that what is the Iraqi government doing with the internet connection They are just banning people from getting connected to the internet because of those demonstrations And those protests which are happening in this country due to their corrupts I'm not going to go through the politics but unfortunately No oppressor, no oppressor stays forever Those who oppress people, those tyrants through lords one day will vanish And the only one who remains throughout history is Hussain Hussain the only power, Hussain is the only power, the only energy The only great one who stays throughout history And everyone from little boys to old men and women will remember him Will follow him and will love him and every year on arba'een occasion they will come to Karbala and feed Ya Hussain, Ya Hussain So Hussain is our master We're not afraid of any government We're not afraid of any tyrant shuler We're not afraid of any oppressor And we only love Hussain, we only ask Almighty God to make it possible for all of us to be true followers of Ahlul Bayt Insha'Allah, insha'Allah My dear brothers and sisters I'm so grateful for being here at your service And Alhamdulillah, you all are zaa'areen of Alhamdulillah Watching this live Ziyarah show or not I will be your representative here and I will perform Ziyarah on your behalf Have a great night Thank you so much for tuning in And Ya Hussain


Hello everyone. I am Dr. Vidyashree Kamal, consultant obstetrician, gynecologist and laparoscopic surgeon at KMC Hospital's Mangalore. Pregnancy-induced hypertension is one of the most common medical problems we encounter in pregnancy. It accounts to about 8-10% of all pregnant women. Now, is this a cause of concern? Most of the times, pregnancy-induced hypertension isn't always dangerous, but at times it could cause potential serious complications to the health of the mother as well as the developing baby. If a pregnant woman develops a blood pressure reading of more than 140 by 90 millimeters of mercury on two different occasions at any time in the pregnancy, then we call it pregnancy-induced hypertension. What are the risk factors for the development of pregnancy-induced hypertension? First time pregnancy that is getting pregnant for the first time itself is a risk factor. IVF pregnancy, history of hypertension in the previous pregnancy, family history of a PIH, pregnancy with twins and triplets that is multiple pregnancy, being obese or overweight and inadequate physical activity itself is a risk factor. Pregnant mothers who have diabetes, renal disorders and auto immune diseases are some of the risk factors for the development of PIH. What are the different types of hypertension in pregnancy? The first is the gestational hypertension in which the blood pressure increases after 20 weeks of pregnancy and mostly it comes back to normal post-delivery. The second is the pre-eclampsia where along with hypertension there is protein in the urine. These are the pregnancies which need to be monitored to prevent potential complications to the mother and the baby. The third is the chronic hypertension or pre-existing hypertension where the pregnant mother would have had hypertension even before she got pregnant. Ideally we need to do preconceptional counseling to optimize their health before they get pregnant. What are the complications of pregnancy-induced hypertension? If the BP is not under control there could be maternal and fetal complications, maternal complications could be eclampsia where along with hypertension there is convulsion or health syndrome wherein there is serious blood and liver problems. In rare instances because of the impairment of the blood flow to brain and kidney there could be stroke and renal failure as well. Coming to the fetal complications that could be low birth weight because of the increased resistance of blood flow to the uterus and the placenta the baby will not get enough oxygen and nutrients resulting in low birth weight of the baby pre-term delivery. If the BP is not under control and your obstetrician foresees certain complications to the mother and the baby she may end up terminating the pregnancy resulting in a pre-term delivery.


Hey, how you doing? This is Darryl O'Donnell from technology knobs. Just want to give you a quick briefing here on What the cloud means especially for senior leaders senior leaders being the chiefs deputy chiefs assistant chiefs? relatively senior people in the services in the first responder services and emerging management and security organizations Big trend right now is the cloud. The cloud is absolutely Everywhere you hear it all the time if you're dealing with anybody in it you're hearing this Kind of sounds like an ambiguous term it is it's not really changing. It's just a thing that the media have glommed on to But it's important for you So I just tell you a couple things on why you should care It's be like a two to four minute video and also tell you what it is you need to know So there's a couple things you're going to hear when you talk to people about the cloud one is private or public Now private means that you actually own the infrastructure You're actually standing it up.  You're gonna have your body cost to keep it going Public side it really is well, it's on the internet But you can secure it and make sure that it's only available to trusted people there are many Large law enforcement organizations for example who we're stepping up and building a shared Cloud that is on the quote Internet But it is actually secured and available only to those law enforcement personnel One of the key things you need to know what the cloud is the policy and governance are actually the harder problem to solve here then the Technical issues the technical issues are really quite easy Nowadays whether a computer is in the cloud whether it's a virtualized computer You'll hear that term too or whether it's a real computer the IT folks manage it without ever touching it anyways The only time they ever touch it really is if a hardware problem happens or when they first put it in the into the racks So I want to tell you what quick quickly what the cloud means so really at that using the cloud Computers and networking really becomes a lot cheaper. It's way faster You can ramp things up like almost instantaneously like click a button. Bam. You have a server in hand It's also way more flexible So if you have to search to do something if your development team needs to transition something They just basically click a couple buttons do the transition and shut down that transition machine Makes it really easy for your technical people to respond The biggest change to you though is it is now an operating cost in the past buying servers The big cost was the hardware by the capital cost, which is that one-time purchase and some maintenance, but typically the maintenance isn't very big With the cloud the operating cost There is no capital upfront cost really unless there's a stand-up charge, which is usually nominal So the real thing is is a you're transferring from your capital expenditure budget to your operating budget. That's a big change for you When you're dealing with your CIOs and your IT group as you do as a senior leader There's a couple things they're gonna want to know from you This will help them do their job. You're gonna want to basically as a leader You want to enable your team to make sure you know enough about your decisions But that you can get them to do their thing So when it comes to the CIO, there's a couple things cost-wise who bears them sometimes an IT organization The CIO will actually own a budget line item that gives kind of a overall budget for an organization That's happening more and more There also are service levels to be concerned about service levels.  You'll hear five nines is a massive high availability. We're talking telco grade This is your telephone not your cellular telephone, but your home your landline Never really goes down But five nines is very expensive a service level of five nines means that they really can't have any downtime is 24-7 if you can take your needs and push it down to a Three nines 99.9 or a little bit less and understand that if things do go down You have to respond to be able to get things going you need to consider your service level agreements Whether you're 24-7 or whether this is business level response many core systems would be 24-7 But those systems that add value, but you know if they disappeared for four or five hours You'd be able to recover. Well, those might be worth putting into the business level response of you know Monday to Friday Just because of the cost basis the CIOs are also going to be concerned and your CSO your Anybody who's doing anything with security and privacy? He's going to be concerned or want to understand how you are dealing with the various differences of security Because once it leaves your building There is a difference in security, but it can be mitigated They want to know how you would like them to mitigate it or to what level of comfort you need to mitigate the risk They can get into the technical mumbo jumbo and do that Also privacy because your system might be outside of firewall and in inside a different firewall Privacy becomes a concern with the cloud because you're a different target for Well for privacy concerns and that's something the CIO is always going to be worried about So I'm hoping this helps Just if you want more just subscribe below there's a link there and they'll get you more of you short little videos Get you kind of spun up on what the topics are of the day and those key issues and how you can deal with a few different things If you want to follow me on Twitter, I've also got a regular free webinar for senior leaders Your operators as well as your tech teams try to get those groups working together a bit better because what I find and I've done Too many projects where The business needs are clear the technical team thinks they understand the business needs But there's no proper Linkage between the two and the projects end up failing now my clients get me to do forensic audits all the time And I see this far too often so it's free web a webinar available for you If you want to talk privately just reach out again lots of links below. Hope this has helped once again I'm Darryl O'Donnell with technology knobs. Have an awesome day


In the last two weeks, cases of kidnaping assumed a dangerous and frightening dimension. Now kidnaping is not new in Nigeria, but since 2014 when schools of secondary school girls were abducted from a secondary school in Chibok, Borno State by the Boko Haram Islamic sect, the country has not experienced mass kidnap. But on March the 3rd this year, Nigerians woke up to the needs of the kidnap of 112 internally displaced persons from their camp in Gambarungala in Borno State. But just as Nigerians were still discussing their development and wondering whether the country is relapsing into the period of 2014, the Rothnecks last week, March 7th, struck again in Kaduna State where they abducted 287 children from a primary in about 187 from a secondary school. However, just as the dust was about, the incident was about to settle. Kadura village also in Kaduna was invaded on March 11 and schools kidnapped. Earlier before the Kadura incident about 15 students were equally kidnapped in Sokota State. The kidnappers of the 287 children initially asked for 40 trillion Naira. Some motorcycles and cars is ransom before the children could be released. But on Thursday, March 15th, reduced it to 1 billion Naira. They have also given the government 15 days to make the 1 billion Naira available or they would kill all the children. Security analyst Okichukon Wango joins us now to discuss these and maybe profile solutions that the government seems to be oblivious to. Good evening to you Okichukon. Many thanks for joining us on Denise now. Good evening. Justin, how are you? Good to see you. Yeah, good to see you once again. Good to hear from you this evening. Let's just try and dive into the security issues and see what we can do to profile solutions because Nigerians have just been kidnapped and they cannot even sleep with both eyes closed as it were. Well, it seems as though kidnapping has become a thriving business. With powerful and influential Nigerians behind the trade, do you feel the same way? I think that the kidnapping has, as far back as 2020, reports already indicated that kidnapping has remained the biggest business in Nigeria, the biggest business and the greatest threat to security in Nigeria. And as far as I'm concerned, at the rate that we're going, it puts a question to the legitimacy of government because it is only in the country that has no government that this kind of thing can be happening. You know, hundreds of people kidnapped and it's not something that happens in an hour. It takes time. So between the time people are kidnapped and they're taken through the pathways to where they are kept, no security agency intervention, no government. And it keeps happening every now and then.  And I think that government needs to show political will indeed because a lot of resources have been put into security, you know, security funding, equipment and training and all that. Yes, this things keep happening. So it is not difficult to reach a conclusion that there are people, powerful people who are behind this syndicate who don't want it to happen. And if the government really wants to stop this, the technology have been put in place. Otherwise, why wouldn't it just be meant to go through the hassle of, you know, raising with NIN and all that, all this technology and yet people make phone calls, demand ransom and get paid ransom and nobody is arrested? No, no, this is not, this can happen in a normal situation. Okay, now, some Nigerians are alleging that those behind the organized crime could be within the could be state actors as it were, especially as the government seems to be chasing its own tail in looking for solutions. How do you reach in all of that? Remember that as far back as in 2014, during the time of President Jonah, we started hearing about, you know, people in government, people within security agencies being part of the syndicate. During the time of President Buhari, we also had government spokesperson, you know, say that from time to time that they know those who are behind, you know, kidnapping and insecurity, you know, about what we never saw was government taking concrete action to deal with this, to identify them, to isolate them and prosecute them. So we keep hearing. So government themselves keep confirming that they know those behind this thing, but what we have failed to see is action. So it is not in doubt, it's no longer speculative anyway. I never want to say that government knows those who are involved in all this crime. But what we don't understand is why they are doing nothing about it. Why nobody is arrested? Why people are kidnapped? About the recent incident now, the bandits are demanding ransom. Right now, they are actually giving an ultimatum asking the government to, asking for a ransom payment of about one billion naira. But the person in Balatini has said emphatically that government would not pay a dime to get the victims back. Do you agree with his stance on this? The work happened in Delta State is quite unfortunate, quite condemnable. It is not right for people to unleash that level of attack on military personnel. Usually what this happens, what happens when this type of thing happens is that the military have a tendency to go on a repressor. And in that repressor, it is not just the perpetrators that are, I mean, in many cases those who committed the crime would have left the scene. So those who bear the brunt are the ordinary citizens. It's unfortunate, I commiserate with the families of the military officers who commiserate with the military, but I urge restraint on the part of the military so that they don't use indiscriminate and needless force to deal with this situation. What is needed is some level of intelligence to identify the actual perpetrators and make sure that they are brought to account. What can really be done in as much as the President has come out to say that those who are found culprit would actually face the music and be, they will actually face the full wrath of the Lord. But in the short run, because residents are fleeing, how can normalcy, what can be done for normalcy to be returned in the shortest time to those communities? Yeah, I think what is necessary to be done at this stage is for a lot of intelligence needs to be deployed. You know, there are leaders in those communities, you know, there are, I'm not sure that every, I'm sure that not every member of the community is involved in this, you know, criminality. There is also a possibility that some people in the community would have some clue about those actually involved. So is to engage with the leaders of the community and with the security authorities within the, with the states. It would be a view to identifying those actually responsible and not to criminalize every member of the community, but also to look at the, look at ways of addressing the cost of this, you know, communal dispute that has led to this needless killing of our, our, our, our soldiers. All right. Thank you so much. Okay. Chukon Wangoma is Executive Director, Rule of Law and Accountability Center.

When living conditions worsen and the economy fails, people try to find reasons for their troubles. This is when political extremists can become popular as they blame certain groups of people and promise that by getting rid of them society's problems will go away. This can lead to the deliberate elimination of those who are different because of their race, religion, sexuality or disability, a phenomenon known as genocide. The 10 stages of genocide are a framework for understanding how crimes against humanity happen so we can spot early warning signs and potentially prevent them. Stage one is classification. Extremists divide people into separate groups based on their different characteristics. This often happens to create an us versus them mentality or to find someone to blame for social problems. The second stage is liberalization. This involves assigning symbols or names to members of the other group. The goal here is to split the society and make it clear who belongs to who. Third is discrimination. The dominant group uses its power to deny others certain rights or privileges. Particular new laws may limit the freedom of the marginalized ones. Instances of bullying increase and the societal divide widens. Fourth is dehumanization. The targeted group is portrayed as less than human, often compared to animals or diseases. Stripping away the human qualities of a person makes it easier to justify violence against them. Fifth is organization. This stage can involve violent mobs that are tolerated by the ruling class or even the creation of state-sponsored militias. In some instances perpetrators now carefully start to plan the next steps of the genocide. Sixth is polarization. Extremists now demonize the targeted group and try to fully divide society by demanding that everyone must take a side. Moderators who want to reduce the tensions are often identified as enemies and silenced. Seventh is preparation. The criminals now plan for mass murder. They may identify victims by name or number, find where they live, and acquire weapons or build facilities to aid their efforts. Eighth is persecution. Violence escalates. The targeted group is systematically subjected to harassment, displacement, or other forms of abuse. Often all of that happens under the disguise of security measures. Ninth is extermination. The mass killing begins. The culprits view their victims as less than human, believing they are cleansing the world of an undesirable element and in doing so justify the use of disproportionate violence. Tenth is denial. Those responsible for the cruelty deny their crimes, destroy evidence, blame the victims, and attempt to rewrite history justifying their actions as necessary for the greater good. This is why in the aftermath of genocide, the criminals must be made accountable and the trauma must be addressed. Then the survivors may heal and society can attempt to reunite. Note that the 10 stages may not occur linearly. They can happen simultaneously. Dr. Gregory Stanton, who observed the phenomenon, suggested preventative measures to battle each stage, even though he believed that ultimately only an international intervention can stop such a disaster. In Germany, Cambodia, Rwanda, and other places, help from outside often arrive too late for too many, which is why Stanton also founded Genocide Watch, a non-profit to help prevent the next tragedy from unfolding. What do you think? Is knowledge enough to prevent genocidal events? And if not, what other measures can we take to avoid the next human catastrophe? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
