Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. Bismillahirrahmanirrahim. In the name of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, most gracious, most merciful. Alhamdulillahi wa salatu wa salamu ala Rasulillah. All praise is indeed due to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Blessings and salutations upon the greatest of creation, the most noble of all prophets of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Hashimi al-Qurashi. Sallallahu alaihi wa salam, his household, his companions, may Allah bless them all, bless every one of us, grant us goodness, remove us from the darkness and keep us, inshallah, within the light that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has chosen. My brothers and sisters, the days of supplication, they are not all the same. The times of supplication, not all the same, but that does not mean we should delay a supplication. I've spoken about this in a previous episode. I want to say to you that the last third of the night is definitely more likely for your dua and your supplication to be accepted. On a Friday, you repeat the dua throughout the day because there is a specific hour and there is difference of opinion as to exactly what that hour is, wherein the dua that is made shall always be accepted by Allah. So every few minutes, you repeat this dua for the whole day, you stand a great, great chance. Also, when you are in Makkah, the dua is more likely to be accepted. When you're in the Masjid in the house of Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, you're in a blessed place. When you have just obeyed Allah, when you have just done a good deed, there is a greater chance of that dua to be accepted. But there is one that a lot of us don't know. When something bad has just happened, that's a good time for you to call out to Allah with the best of duas. When you've just been oppressed, you've just been robbed, you've just had an accident, you've just lost a child, you've just suffered a great loss. May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala have mercy on all of us. That is a time when dua is accepted as well. So we need to realize this and call out to Allah. Today, I want to go through a beautiful hadith again. It's a little bit long, but it has in it supplications that encompass our entire living. The Prophet SAW said, Allahumma lakal hamdu kulluhu. Now he's starting off by praising Allah.  When we seek forgiveness, we are now on par, meaning we're on the same page. We're looking forward to what Allah has bestowed upon us and we will ask him. So the Prophet SAW said, Allahumma lakal hamdu kulluhu. Oh Allah, all praise, every single aspect of praise is due to you. You own it and you deserve it and it belongs to you. Allahumma laqabida lima basatta. Oh Allah, there is no one who can hold back what you have given, which means you're in control. Wa la basita lima qabatta. And oh Allah, there is no one who can give what you have held back. Subhan Allah. Imagine this is all the praise of Allah. It's a way of praising Allah. Allahumma laqabida lima basatta wa la basita lima qabatta. Oh Allah, there is no one who can hold back what you have given. And there is no one who can give what you have held back. Subhan Allah. No one will guide the one whom you have misguided, which means if you have chosen misguidance for someone, that's it. No one can guide them. Wa la mudilla lima hadaita. And there is no one who can misguide the one whom you have guided. We ask Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala to grant us guidance and we ask Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala to make us from those who appreciate that guidance is in the hands of Allah. It's a dua we make every single time we pray. And even more than that, ihdina sirat al mustaqeem guide us to the straight path. What a beautiful dua of the Quran. And we ask Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala to keep us constantly guided, no matter what anyone says or does, we will never ever be misguided if the Almighty has kept us upon that beautiful path. May Allah keep us on the path. Ameen. Then the dua continues. Wa la mu'atia lima manaita, similar to the previous one. Oh Allah, no one will give what you have blocked, stopped. Wa la mania lima a'aita. And there is no one who will block or stop what you have given. Wa la mukarriba lima ba'atta. And no one can bring close that which you have kept at a distance. When Allah has kept something far away, no one can bring that close. Wa la muka'ida lima qarrabta. And there is no one who can create a distance between us and that which you have kept away. Or there is no one who can create a distance in that which you have kept close. In that which you have kept close. Let me say that again. Wa la muka'ida lima qarrabta. And no one can create a distance in that which you have kept close. Now this is very broad in meaning. Anything that Allah has kept close, no one can distance it. Anything that Allah has kept distanced, no one can bring it close. Whether it's a relationship, whether it's physically something, if Allah has kept someone far, if Allah kept something very far, very difficult, etc. It's Allah in absolute control. All this is a prelude to the dua. All this is going to is the run up to this dua that we want to ask Allah. We are praising Him. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says, O Allah, praise belongs to you. All praise belongs to you. No one can take away what you've given. No one can give what you've taken away. No one can guide whom you've misguided. No one can misguide whom you've guided and no one can block what you have given and no one can give what you have blocked. O Allah, no one can bring close what you have made far and no one can make far what you have brought close. Here is the dua. O Allah, give us from your blessings. O Allah, give us your blessings. Bless us. Basically, we're asking for the blessings of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. After all of this, we're just saying, O Allah, bless us. And we want your blessings. And we want your mercy. So we're asking Allah for all these things.  We ask this from you, O Allah, because you are the one whom all those qualities we made mention of apply to you. Ya Allah, Lord of the worlds. Then we continue to say, O Allah, I am asking you. Now, this is Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam asking. We will also ask Allah with the same wording. Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was given this and insha Allah, we will be given this too. O Allah, I ask you, O Allah, I am asking you the gifts that are constant and continuous, that do not go away, that are not distracted or that are not sidelined and they do not deplete. They neither go away, nor are they depleted. So we ask you to grant us the gifts and we ask you to bless us in a way that it does not go away from us, nor is it ever depleted. Now, obviously, the ultimate gift is Jannah. The ultimate gift is Paradise. It will never go. It will never be depleted. But even in this world, we are asking Allah, O Allah, grant us that which is everlasting. When you give us something, let it last long. You know, today we have marriages that come to my mind. When people get married, we are very worried because the chances or Subhan Allah, the number of people who are actually divorcing is becoming bigger and bigger. May Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala protect us. You know, it's a large number and it's becoming larger. The percentage of divorce has increased. So this also is seeking Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala's mercy to let things be durable, continuous, to let them be long, everlasting and so on. So we are asking Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala this ultimately it is Jannah Al-Firdaus. Allahumma inni asalukan naeema al-muqeema Alladi la yahulu wa la yazulu. O Allah, I seek from you that naeem, those gifts, the virtue and the blessings that will be everlasting. That which does not go away, nor is it depleted in any way. Then we continue Allahumma inni asalukan naeema yawm al-ailati. O Allah, I ask you to provide for me on the day of difficulty, the day of hardship. Naeem, ni'matun is a boon, a gift of Allah, the provision that Allah provides us with. So we are saying O Allah, grant us, provide for us on the day that we don't have much, on the day of poverty. Al-ailah would refer to poverty as well. It would refer to the day of hardship, difficulty when we don't have much. So O Allah, on that day we ask you to provide for us. Wa al-amna yawm al-khawf. And O Allah, grant us peace, grant us security and peace, both inner and outer peace, the day of fear. The day when there is a lot of fear, that is the day of qiyamah but even before that, any day of fear. We are saying O Allah, inni asalukan al-amna yawm al-khawf. O Allah, grant me the peace, the day of fear.  We are relaxed. It happens because you call out to Allah. Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam was the most calm of them all. When the people were worried, he was calm. He knew this is in the hands of Allah. Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Why do I need to be worried? Allahumma inni a'idum bika min sharrima a'taitana wa sharrima mana'atana. O Allah, I am seeking protection in you from the evil of what you've given us and what you have kept away from us. When Allah bestows you with something, sometimes it's a test. It can come with some evil in the sense that it can come with harm.  It's a fitna. Allah blesses you with family members with wealth. There is evil that could be within that because shaitan can entrap you through a gift that was initially from Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala's gifts. But in it there was a test that we failed sometimes. So we're saying, oh Allah, I seek protection in you from the evil of what you've given us and from what you have from the evil of what you have kept away from us. Allahumma habib ilayna il-iman. Oh Allah, make beloved to us iman. In a previous episode, we mentioned this part of the hadith and we actually said that it is derived from the Quranic this in Surat al-Hujurat when Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala speaks about this. So Allahumma habib ilayna il-iman. Oh Allah, make beloved to us al-iman. Wa zayyinhu fi qulubina and beautify it in our hearts. Wa karrih ilayna al-kufra wa al-fusuqa wa al-isyanah. And oh Allah, make detested to us disbelief and sin and transgression. Wa jaalna min al-Rashideen and make us from among those who are righteous, rightly guided, those who guide and are rightly guided. Allahumma tawafana muslimin. Oh Allah, grant us death as Muslims, as submitters. Wa ahyiina muslimin and resurrect us as Muslims, among the muslimin. Wa al-hiqna bi s-salihin. And oh Allah, join us with those who are righteous and pious as well when we are resurrected. Unite us with those who are righteous and pious. Ghaira khazaya wa la maftounin. Without being disgraced nor being tested in a way that we fail. So this is a powerful dua of the Prophet SAW.  Imagine if Allah were to give this to us. If we repeat this so many times, I'm sure Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will definitely hear and he will give it to us. Let me repeat this beautiful dua. Allahumma laka al-hamdu kulluhu. Allahumma laqabida lima basatta. Wa la basita lima qabatta. Wa la hadiyah lima al-adlalta. Wa la mudilla lima nha'dayta. Wa la mu'atiyah lima man'ata. Wa la man'a lima a'atayta. Wa la muqarriba lima ba'atta. Wa la mubaida lima qarrabta. Allahumma bsuta alayna min barakatika. Wa rahmatika. Wa fadlika. Wa rizqika. Allahumma inni asaluka. An naeem al-muqeema. Al-ladi la yahulu wa la yazulu. Allahumma inni asaluka an naeema. Yawma al-ailati. Wa al-amna yawma al-khawfi. Allahumma inni a'idumbika. Min sharrima a'atitana. Wa sharrima man'atana. Allahumma habbib ilayna al-eemana. Wa zayyinhu fi qlubina. Wa karrih ilayna l-kufra. Wa l-fusuqa. Wa l-isyanah. Wa ja'lna min r-rashideen. Allahumma tawaffana muslimina. Wa al-hiqna bsalihina. Wa ahyina muslimina. Wa al-hiqna bsalihina. Ghayra khazaya wa la maftuneen. SubhanAllah. It's an amazing dua. And I really ask Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala to grant us this dua and to make us from those who have jannahul firdous through his mercy and through his power for indeed for him it is not, it does not displace anything for Allah to grant every single one of us whatever we wish and whatever we want. That is Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. SubhanAllah. We move on to another supplication of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Again it is about increase and protection from decrease. So in this hadith which is also narrated in Sunnah at Tirmidhi, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is reported to have said Allahumma zidna wa la tanqusna. O Allah grant us increase and not decrease. O Allah grant us increase and not decrease. Zidna wa la tanqusna. O Allah give us more and don't give us less. Wa akrimna wa la tuhinnna. O Allah honor us and don't disgrace us. O Allah grant us honor, protect us from disgrace. We only make these dua sometimes when we have a major problem and we are worried about being disgraced from you know something might happen and perhaps we might be disgraced make the dua all the time. Allahumma akrimna wa la tuhinnna. Allahumma zidna wa la tanqusna. Allahumma akrimna wa la tuhinnna. Wa akrimna wa la tuhinnna. O Allah give us don't block it from us. O Allah give us and don't block it from us. The first part was O Allah grant us increase and not decrease. O Allah honor us and do not disgrace us. O Allah give us and don't block it from us. We're talking of goodness here. Goodness in every single way. Give it to us and don't block it from us. Wa akrimna wa la tuhinnna wa la tuhinnna. Oh wow, that's powerful. Akrimna means O Allah give us preference and don't give preference over us. Now we as human beings are taught that when people are in need and we are in need, we should try our best to meet the needs of the people. Even if it means for us to give preference over ourselves to others. As Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala speaks about the Ansar and Allah says you threw me on for see him. Wa lo kana bihim khasasah. They used to give preference over themselves. Even if they needed that thing. We've heard of so many stories where the Sahab radiAllahu anhum the Ansar gave away what they needed and they gave away the water they needed. They gave away some of the wealth that they needed and so much that they needed. So Allah praise them. But in this dua that we're speaking about right now. We're talking about the blessings and the mercy of Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. We want the mercy. So we're trying to tell Allah that oh Allah don't leave us out and get to someone else. But we want that mercy. Please grant us the mercy. You know when it comes to jannah tul firdus. We're all on our own as much as we make dua for everyone else, but we want to be there. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala help us. So this is why we're saying Give preference to us. Wa la tuathir alayna and don't give preference over us when it comes to guidance. We want to be guided. We want to be the first to be guided. This is why in another verse you're talking about Isma Ibrahim alayhi salam. Musa alayhi salam. Wa ana awwalu al-mu'mineen. Wa ana awwalu al-muslimeen. Oh Allah, I'm happy that I'm the first of the believers. I'm the first of the submitters. These are beautiful du'as, beautiful statements because it's an honor to be the first who was guided. The first who came to Allah. You have more deeds. So this is why we say, oh Allah, give preference to us. You know, in these matters here, we would like preference and don't prefer over us. So you leave us out. Wa riddina wa ridd'anna. Make us happy. Oh Allah and you be happy with us too. That is a powerful thing. You know, the day of Eid comes twice a year. On that day of Eid, it's a day where we give charity. It's a day where we give part of the meat sometimes when it comes to Eid al-Adha, you know, the sacrifice. We give Eid, we give Sadaqat al-Fitr when it comes to the Eid of Fitr. But it's a day given to us by Allah as a celebration for the worship that we have engaged in for that season. If it's in the Ramadan or just after Ramadan is because of the fasting and the tarawih and the recitation of the Quran and so much of the acts of worship that we've been engaging in. If it is the Hajj, then it's because of the Hajj. It's because of the season known as Dhul-Hijjah, the first days of Dhul-Hijjah, the blessed days, the Ibadah that we've been engaging in. And so at the end Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala gives us a day of happiness. The problem is that day of happiness that Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala has given us. We make everyone happy but Allah, we make ourselves happy but Allah is not happy with us because number one, the way we dress. Number two, the fact that we miss our Salah. Number three, the fact that we commit sins on that day thinking, it's a day of happiness. I can do what I want.  That should not be the case. We should never allow that to happen on the day of Eid. More so on the day of Eid but as it is any other day, we should be conscious of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala's command and instruction. So here we're asking Allah in this beautiful dua that says, Oh Allah, Allahummarda, no, Wa'ar'dina wa'ar'da'anna. Wa'ar'dina wa'ar'da'anna. Wa'ar'dina wa'ar'da'anna. You could say it that way. In fact, it would be more correct to say wa'ar'dina instead of wa'ar'dina because that Hamza, there is a rule of the Arabic language. So wa'ar'dina wa'ar'da'anna. Oh Allah, make us happy wa'ar'dina wa'ar'da'anna and be happy with us. We don't just want to be happy. We want you also to be happy with us. What's the point of Allah making you happy in this world and your happiness is so limited, so negative, so small and it's all about minute small things that really don't help. I'm not interested in being happy at the displeasure of Allah. People get happy to sin as well. People get happy to do the wrong things and they're saying, Oh, I'm extremely happy. I'm very, very delighted but they don't even worship Allah and they don't even obey Allah's instruction and they become evil people sometimes because of their habits and because of so many other factors. But to themselves, they're very happy because they drank alcohol because they might have gone to the clubs and won something in the casino. They might have won the lottery. They might, you know, something might have happened. So they're happy, but Allah is Allah happy. That's a question. So this supplication, we learn a lot from it because while we're asking Allah to give us, we're also asking Him not to decrease. While we're asking Allah to honor us, we're also asking Him not to disgrace us. While we're asking Allah to grant us or to give us, we're asking Him not to block us. While we're asking Allah to grant us preference, we're asking Him not to prefer over us. And while we're asking Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to be pleased with us, we're asking Him also. No, to please us. We're asking Him also to be pleased with us. So these are both aspects. It's easy to have just said one, but the beauty of the words of the Messenger, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, are such that nothing is left out. Imagine if we only said, Oh Allah grant me increase. Oh Allah, honor me. Oh Allah, give me.  I mean to us, we would have been happy. We would have been excited, but there is a possibility Allah may give you, but it's not good for you. And then there is a decrease in a different way, or perhaps Allah might give you and then take it away from you. Perhaps Allah might honor you and then disgrace you. Perhaps Allah might give and then block. Perhaps Allah might Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala might give you preference and then there's no longer you being preferred. Perhaps Allah might make you happy, but He won't be happy with you. So in order to cover all of that, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam has taught us such a beautiful, beautiful dua. It is so amazing. And I truly ask Allah to grant it to us in this beautiful, beautiful season during these beautiful days and nights of this lovely, lovely month. We ask Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to accept it from us. We repeat. Allahumma zidna wa la tanqusna wa akrimna wa la tohinna wa a'atina wa la tahrimna wa a'athirna wa la tu'thir alayna wardina warda anna. Birahmatika ya Ar-Rahman Rahimin.  Birahmatika ya Ar-Rahman Rahimin. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala truly have mercy upon every one of us. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala bless us during these days and nights. And may Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala grant us the best of the rest of this particular series. There are only two more episodes remaining. Insha'Allah, we meet again. I'll say this again. As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

So I am not going to read you the syllabus.  I'm not going to do anything around the syllabus. I'm going to expect that you will read it. And if you don't read it, that's crazy talk, especially in an online class. So there you go. Read the syllabus. That's good. However, the schedule, I'm going to walk you through that. Because you might look at that thing and be like, what? And I'll just tell you right now that my brain is color-coded. Like I think in color coding. And so I post things that are all color-coded. You'll see when I do video lectures, I use colors like crazy. This is this thing. Color, to me, is very helpful in organizing and conceptually handling stuff. So let me tell you what I've done here. This schedule should include every possible thing that is ever going to happen in this class, week by week. The exception is module zero. None of this is going to open up to you and be available until you finish module zero. And that's that orientation one that I talked about in the welcome video. So every week, starting with week one. There it is, week one. Look, you got your dates on there, so don't get confused. I threw the learning outcomes into this schedule and I did that so that you would have an idea of what's the point, like what are we doing with the content in this section. And most of the time, there's one learning outcome. Like it's that straightforward. Like this is the point of today's topic. Every week, when we have a content topic, you are going to watch a video lecture. And I would like you to look into my eyeballs. If you don't watch those video lectures, like you're basically skipping class. Okay, you could actually go and read the textbook if you would rather. If you feel like you don't want to watch the video lectures, you can read the textbook. But you'll know that the textbook is not going to cover exactly the same content that I cover. And it's probably going to go deeper than what we do. Most cases, if you read the textbook and you get it, you'll be golden. There's nothing in the textbook that is, you'll get plenty of information if you read the textbook. The video lectures tend to be a little more targeted and focused on the kinds of things that I'm actually wanting you to really master. However you do it, watch the video lecture. At least give them a shot. And then you're going to have a discussion every time. So, and look at this, I threw due dates into the discussions because I'm going to sort of model, it came out. I'm going to model after what a face-to-face class would be like. I would never expect you to watch two video lectures a day. No, you watch a video lecture and then you do something with that content. Now I actually flip my face-to-face classes and use these video lectures. My students have to watch them before they come to class. So, then during class time, during the face-to-face lecture, we're like talking about stuff and having a discussion about the content. So in thinking through like, how can I replicate that in an online environment, I decided to do a discussion forum. And if you see the numbers behind these things, that means that they're actually in the modules numbered like that. So it should be super organized and clean for you to move through the things that are required. The discussion, I called it a muddy, fun discussion and that's just because you can talk about things that are confusing, muddy concepts, or things that are really interesting and fun, fun concepts. And I would like there to be a significant amount of freedom for these discussions. And I'm going to feel it out and see, you know, you will have them every video lecture. There will be a muddy, fun discussion that goes with it. But we're going to see how they work out. We're going to see what the general consensus is about what's required in them because I'm not going to require at least not at first. I'm going to say engage in meaningful conversation. Imagine it's like being in class. What kinds of things do you want to clarify? What kinds of things do you want to tell your classmates that you thought was cool? And you have to meaningfully participate. And then we'll just see how that goes. So your first muddy, fun discussion is due on Thursday at midnight, okay, Thursday at 11.59. And the due date is there to make sure that you get through module zero and you're ready to go because not only do you have a video lecture, but you also have lab work. And the due dates are not flexible. Things will be open so you can totally get stuff done early if you want to work on a different schedule. But you're going to have to do work during the week. You can't save up all of your stuff for this class and do it all on the weekend. It's just too much. And the learning that you would do if you chose to approach it with that schedule is not going to be rich and deep enough to do well on my exams. So that's why I've set up the deadlines the way that I have. Okay, normally you'd have two of these things. One due on Tuesday, get through that first video lecture. One due on Thursday, get through that second video lecture. And check it out, this week two, you'll have two video lectures and you'll have two discussions that go with those videos. Okay, every week you're going to have a lab activity. There is an entire lesson in module zero about how to set up your lab notebook because lab work requires you to do the activity. So you're going to do the lab, whatever it is, nicely. Our first lab is a case study, which means we're actually facilitating it in Canvas. Then you're going to have a lab group. And so you do the lab, whether it be the discussion, whether it be pouring the cabbage juice indicators, awesome. Whatever it is that you have to do, you're going to carry out the lab and you're going to talk about it with your lab group in a discussion board. Again, meaningful participation in that. That's my goal. And then you are going to update your lab notebook. And I'm going to do a whole video walkthrough of the lab notebook process so that you know what to expect there. That, your lab work, is all going to be due on Saturday. That gives you Friday and Saturday. Like it gives you some weekend time. You can do your labs on the weekends, but you're going to want to work with your lab group to make sure that everybody's kind of on the same page because the discussion is an important part of the process. And in the interest of flexibility, I made them both the, making sure you did the lab and making sure you talked about it with your group. I made them due on the same day. And I know that that is maybe not ideal, but I don't know. We'll see how that works too. I may want to change that up eventually. But if you're awesome and you do the lab work and you totally talk to each other about it and it's meaningful, then I don't care when it's due. So I'd like to not care when it's due. I'd like to not worry about scaffolding you and forcing you to have things done at certain times. I'd love to be able to say, talk to your group and get your lab notebook done by Saturday at midnight and you'll be golden. Okay, so that happens. So that, do your lab, talk to your group, update your lab notebook. That all is going to happen every week. And then you're going to do a weekend check-in.  You're also going to have a quiz in Canvas. The quiz is over all the content of the week. And it will open on Friday. I'm not going to give it, like you can't take that quiz early. It's going to open on Friday and it's going to close on Sunday night. The external brain assignment is also going to be due on Sunday night. So one of the things, the reason why I'm walking you through this is because, I don't know, I think it's the ninth activity in this intro module is to build a schedule, like where are you going to carve out the time to make these things happen. So you can start percolating on it now because, like I said, this isn't a weekend class. This isn't something you can do on the weekends or one day a week and get everything done.  When you have a face-to-face class, we make the schedule for you. Like we force you to think about the content on three days a week, two days, whatever. Here, I'm forcing you to interact with the content more than just one day a week. Okay, external brain. Let's talk about that really fast.  So here's what your task is. Take a deep breath. The external brain is free points. You are going to take notes, right?  If you don't take notes, you're crazy. Or maybe you're not crazy. Maybe you're busy. I totally get that. Okay, you're not crazy. You're busy and you're making choices, but it's a bad choice. Don't make that choice. Like you want to take notes because you're going to have to study and notes help you learn the material. So you're going to be doing this anyway. I'm going to give you points for collecting all of your content into a notebook. Now, I'm going to show you one. This is the external brain of one of my face-to-face students. I do the external brain in all my classes. And all you're doing is putting your notes in there. Like that, it's it. You can't see a thing. You can't see a thing. Oh, look, there you can kind of see something. Right on. It's just notes. Who cares? You can put in a three-ring notebook. You can put in a spiral notebook. You can like have pages, whatever. And then once a week before Sunday at midnight, you are going to make a video in Canvas. You're going to need a webcam. And, dude, I am the perfect model of you just do it. I mean, if I thought too much about these videos that I am creating and posting, like it's horrifying. So I hear you. I feel your pain and you're going to do it anyway. So you're just going to pull up your webcam one minute or less.  I'm here to show you my external brain. Look, I put in this page and this page. Look, can you see my pages? And you're going to like set it up so that you can show me. And I took notes over here and I made a table. And it was really helpful. Okay, bye now, Wendy. Bye-bye. And that's it. You're done. You just showed me your external brain. That's all I need. And it is a piece that it's a chunk of your grades. So, and it's easy, Chuck. So just do it. All right. How do you feel? Oh, wait, I have to show you more. That, we get through four weeks with this first page. And I want to show you what is at the bottom that got kind of left off. Oh, yes. Whoa, that was exam two. Exam two, because there are two, three, four, five, five, six, seven, no. There's five exams in this class. And they are all proctored, which means you have to either read your syllabus to tell you all about the details for proctoring. But it means that you have to come to a college of the Redwoods campus or go to some other campus. Or we have an option of you can hook up a webcam and you can sign into this website and they'll watch you take the test in your house. And they'll lock down your computer and do all this stuff to make sure that you are not cheating on your exams. So basically, the fact that I am taking the time to proctor these exams or make you proctor the exams just means that I want to make sure you're the one taking them. And I want to make sure that you're not cheating. Like, I want to know what's in your brain. And that's a big load. So think that through. Think about how read through the proctoring scene and think about like how are you envisioning pulling this together because five proctored exams is a lot. And that's what I do in my face-to-face classes. And so everything on a page is what is fair game on the proctored exam. I've got due dates on there.  And then you'll see on this schedule that really there is a page for all the content that goes into exam two. There's a page for all the content that goes into exam three and so on to exam four. And there is a final and the final is comprehensive. The good news about the final exam is that I will just say it now so that you, because I said what I'm not going to tell you about the syllabus. These are things you can read. Well, I am talking and I'm going to keep talking. So let me just tell you that the final exam, it is comprehensive, which means you got to remember the stuff that we talked about in the beginning. This class is awesome because it actually builds like the stuff that you learn in the beginning forms the foundation for the things you learn along the way. Really every single exam is comprehensive in a sense because we're relying on the new knowledge that you gained to understand the next set of ideas. But the final covers all of it in detail. But if you score higher on your final than you do on any one of the midterms, I'll let you use that final exam score to replace the midterm score. So sometimes students get a little overconfident. Like, dude, this lady's crazy. Her exams can't be that hard, but that's not true. And they are challenging, which is they should be. Like, I want to know what you're learning and you have to learn to do well in the class, which is the point, right? So you might want to use that final exam. Learn it eventually. This is redemption, which is a good thing. Okay, how are you? I can pretend like I heard you answer and tell me, like, we're great. This is awesome. We're super excited. Good. Okay, so keep going. This was just the little first chunk for reading through the syllabus and preparing your brain for what you're going to have to do every week. And then let's make sure that you're good to go with all the other pieces. I'll be back to talk to you about the lab component or the lab notebook part of...

The article discusses a bias correction method used in climate impact modeling to correct for systematic deviations between simulated historical data and observations. The method involves transfer functions that map the distribution of simulated historical data to that of observations, which are then applied to correct future projections. The bias corrected climate data is only provided over land areas, so it must preserve the warming signal in order to be consistent with global temperature information. The proposed methodology modifies the transfer function approach used in the water model intercomparison project, water MIP, and involves correcting monthly mean and daily variability about the monthly mean. While the trend and long term mean are well represented, limitations with regards to adjusting variability persist which may affect small scale features or extremes. This article was authored by S.

Putin lives with Russian gymnast and earns money through offshore company selling vodka. Russian President Vladimir Putin may have earned up to 500 million dollars from sales of a popular vodka brand under his own name between 2004 and 2019, according to an investigation published by Independent Media Outlet Pro-ect. Russian vodka sold under the Putinka brand hit the shelves in Russia in 2002 and became the market leader by 2005, at which point it was selling over 40 million litres annually. It is said also that Vladimir Putin and Alina Kabaeva, gymnast and likely mother of his children, live together in a residence in Valdai, using Putin's funds from the Cyprus offshore company Ermira Consultants. This company is a common treasury for Putin and his entourage. Putin and Kabaeva most often live in a residence on Valdai, which is overgrown with VIP villages around. To buy luxury real estate, they use Putin's funds hidden in Cyprus. Funds are laundered through the company Ermira Consultants, which has registered shares in the important enterprises for Putin. The journalists met with a former business manager of one of the president's closest friends, who was involved in managing a secret financial network that included Ermira. The source said that until 2015, the company was owned by a figurehead, a lawyer from St. Petersburg, Vladislav Kopylov. But in fact, Ermira accounts paid for purchases for Putin and his relatives. He also uses this money to buy apartments and houses.


Hello in this lecture, we're gonna be taking a look at first in first out inventory method We will be selling coffee mugs and we won't be specifically identifying the coffee mugs in this case as we've talked about in a prior lecture This time we're gonna be using a cost flow assumption that cost flow assumption being the first in first out assumption this time To set up this problem in any cost flow assumption I highly recommend putting together a worksheet that worksheet including headers of Purchases columns then we got the cost of merchandise columns then we have the ending inventory I highly recommend setting up a worksheet like this whether it's by hand or in a computer or in excel because it answers all the types of questions That could come up with an inventory cost flow type of assumption within those sections We will then have the quantity and then the unit cost and the total cost We're gonna ask if we sell something we're calculating the cost of that sale We're gonna same thing we're gonna have the quantity the unit cost and the total cost and then the Indian inventory We're saying what is left again? We can represent that with the quantity the unit cost and then I have two costs Totals here because there's gonna be different layers So we're the first cost is going to be the cost per layer the second cost We're gonna be adding up total layer that'll make more sense as we go We're gonna start off here with inventory on the trial balance represented in terms of dollars of five thousand Trial balance represented in terms of dollars remember that when we look at inventory It's gonna be represented in terms of units and we're gonna have to convert those units into dollars So when we see it on the trial balance We need to back that number up any similar way that we needed to back up save the accounts receivable by customer Who owes us that 44 900 in terms of inventory? What makes up that five thousand dollars worth of inventory in this case? We're gonna start off with a hundred units Times the fifty dollars. I know they're very expensive coffee mugs. They don't look like much But a hundred units times fifty dollars and that's gonna give us the five thousand So that is the only layer so that's gonna be the total cost that five thousand represents the five thousand on the trial balance Let's take a look at some journal entries and see how we track this first transaction will be the purchase of 400 more units at fifty five dollars in terms of units that means of course we had 100 units now We purchased another 400 units meaning we have 500 units the journal entry is pretty straightforward Because we paid for what we paid for it's not there's no estimate involved in the journal entry That's the cash we pay we paid 400 times fifty five dollars So we're gonna say inventories going up with a debit of twenty two thousand five thousand plus the debit of twenty two thousand brings inventory on our trial balance up to twenty seven thousand dollars worth of Inventory and then we're gonna say we bought them on account so the credit's gonna go to accounts payable we had twelve thousand one fifty We're gonna credit increase in accounts payable to thirty four thousand one fifty That's what we have at this point in time now the challenge here Of course is that we're gonna have to back that number up this twenty seven thousand now needs to be backed up on our Worksheet last time we left off with one layer of a hundred units at fifty dollars now Of course, we've got that 100 units plus the 400 to the 500 units What we're gonna do is draw a line under the prior transact first We're gonna say that we have purchases the purchases are gonna be 400 units in the purchases column We purchased them for 55 dollars note that that's a higher cost than they were before Rising prices in this case 400 times 55 gives us that twenty two thousand then in terms of ending inventory We now have two layers. We had some that cost one hundred Fifty dollars and some that cost fifty five I want to have both those layers under this red line as of the point in time of the latest transaction this purchase Therefore, I'm just gonna bring this number down I'm just gonna bring these down here hundred units at fifty dollars gives us that five thousand Then we're just gonna bring these over here and say the second layer was 400 units at fifty five dollars for twenty two thousand So the five thousand plus the twenty two thousand gives us the total cost of the twenty seven thousand that dollar amount now Is what is represented on our trial balance. We have that backed up now Of course the question will be when we make a sale Which ones did we sell did we sell the cheap ones the old ones at fifty dollars or the more expensive newer ones at fifty five Remember that the mug itself completely the same. It's just the increase in price Due to the time period in which we purchased it answer when we look at FIFO Will be the old one the first ones that we're in will be the first ones of war out in this case being the cheaper ones But we are getting our head of their sales. So let's take a look at a sales transaction We're gonna say we sell four hundred and twenty units at eighty five dollars. There's two journal entries related to the sale Remember that the first half of the journal entry is no different We're not tracking the sales price if they give us the sales price in a problem It's common for us to think well have what does that have to do with our cost sheet nothing I mean we might have used the cost sheet to come up with the sales price But the sales price is not what we are tracking first half of the journal entry. Nothing is different We're gonna take the four hundred twenty times the eighty five and that's gonna be our journal entry in terms of the units Of course, we've got the five hundred units minus the four twenty gives us the eighty left That's what we're gonna have left Transaction for the first half of the journal entry will be the debit of the thirty five seven The four twenty times the eighty five And that will be increasing the receivable assuming we made the sale on account So we're increasing the receivable and the second half of it will be the revenue account because we're earning revenue at that point in time Crediting the revenue for the four twenty times the eighty five increasing the revenue This journal entry often gets neglected when we're looking at the cost-flow assumption because that's not where we're focusing in on But we need to recognize it when make a sale that that journal entry is still there That's the journal entry we normally focus on when we make the sale what we need to track now Of course is the decrease in the inventory. We had twenty seven thousand in the inventory What's the cost of those four hundred and twenty units that were sold? That's when we need to go to our worksheet and say hmm. Well, we have we're gonna say these two layers Hundred units at fifty four hundred units at fifty five We sold four hundred and twenty units therefore we're gonna be working in the cost of merchandise because that's what we're trying Calculate the cost of the goods sold here and we're saying which ones did we sell first? Well, we sold four hundred twenty units We sold the old ones first under the first and first out those being the units at fifty dollars There's only a hundred of them. We sold four twenty. Therefore. We're wiping out that entire hundred units We throw a hundred units at fifty. That's the assumption that we are making that's given us that five thousand this layer Wiped out then we have four hundred units and we sold Four hundred twenty, so we're gonna say the four hundred twenty minus the hundred that we took out of the prior layer means we have another Three hundred twenty that are in the second layer. Those are at fifty five dollars three twenty times fifty five gives us the 17 six so five thousand plus seventeen six That's the cost of goods a question could ask that or they could be asking what's left in Indian inventory Which we would then have to calculate using our worksheet here We're gonna say well, there was a hundred units on this layer We sold all of them hundred minus a hundred means there's zero left Therefore zero times a hundred fifty is zero then we had four hundred in the second layer We sold three hundred and twenty of them leaving us with that eighty There's that eighty and those eighty that are left then are at that higher cost of fifty five eighty times fifty five Is four thousand four hundred of the zero in the first layer in the four thousand four hundred second layer gives us Four thousand four hundred that is left in Indian inventory So remember we have two things here that are going on that question could ask what's the cost of goods sold twenty two six That's the journal entry that we need to record Leaving us with what's left in Indian inventory after we record that journal entry, which will be Four thousand four hundred let's post the journal entry So here's gonna be our journal entry for the cost of goods side of this sales And we're gonna say that the inventory is going down by that twenty two six that we just calculated and we're gonna credit the inventory So that's gonna bring the inventory down to that four thousand four hundred That's what's left cost of goods sold the expense related to us using the inventory in order to help us generate revenue 22,600 bringing the cost of goods sold to that twenty two thousand six hundred. There's the transaction and We can see that that four thousand four hundred now of course matches what is in our worksheet You


flying monkeys and the smear campaign first I'd like to talk about flying monkeys it's a phrase used in popular psychology mainly in the context of narcissistic abuse the narcissist needs a partner in their denial so flying monkeys are people who act on behalf of the narcissist usually for an abusive purpose they can be also known as a pass which are followers of the narcissist when navel is because they enable the narcissist to abuse you they make it possible for this to happen with a code of silence they justify the wrong doing of the narcissist a fly monkey can be anyone who believes the fake persona of the narcissist normal emotionally healthy people do not abuse or manipulate they do not get involved in someone else's business narcissists do and they take it personally even though it has nothing to do with them fly monkeys have a variety of tactics spying spreading gossip threatening painting the narcissist as a victim and painting a negative picture of you a fly monkey can make it seem like the narcissist isn't really involved they are likely to have no idea that they are being used multiple fly monkeys act as a mob in force against you they can be used to create a smear campaign they will all see you the same way and have the same motive to sabotage and destroy your life the smear campaign is usually prepared in the devaluation phase so it is ready for when they discard you they will blame all of their abuse manipulation stalking and harassment on something you have done in your past they will blame you for things that have nothing directly to do with them this could be from months or even years ago this is their excuse their motive for doing what they do every abuser will either be in denial or have an excuse the truth is all of the abuse manipulation stalking and harassment have nothing to do with what you had allegedly did they might have done the same thing themselves and often they have done worse than anything you have done so they're trying to project on to you if this had anything to do with something you did in your past they will be doing it to other people who have done it to they would be stalking and harassing other people who have done the same thing they would forget about you and be focusing on people who have done worse than what you have done so clearly it has nothing to do with anything you've done if we want to talk about people doing bad things there are real child molesters rapists and even murderers out there so why they're wasting their time watching what you are doing and harassing you they are in denial pretending that is the reason because the truth is too difficult and shameful to accept I live in Swansea where 70% of all crimes from the past year have been left unsolved by the police 25% of those crimes are violence and sexual offenses another 25% of those crimes are antisocial behavior and yet instead of focusing their time on these real criminals who never even got charged for their crimes they have chosen to spend the last three years focused on stalking and harassing me I have been the victim of police brutality on two occasions where I received injuries from head to toe I have also been assaulted and had thousands of pounds of material items and cash stolen from me over the past few years none of these crimes were ever followed up by the police they do not care about people they just pretend to the root of all of this is their envy there could be envious of you as a person your past relationships money material things your career or any good qualities which you may possess narcissists and their fly monkeys are very envious people if you have any doubt about this ask yourself who else are they stalking or harassing no one right well if what you have done bothered them so much they will be doing the same thing to someone else who has done the same thing as you so this is proof that it really has nothing to do with anything you've done they are extremely envious and that is the root cause of all of this they will remain hateful angry and envious towards you for the rest of your life normal people do not do that they learn to forgive and resolve conflict show if you have done something that offended a normal emotionally healthy person they will be mad in the beginning but they will not create a smear campaign they will deal with it themselves and although they might be cold and distant towards you at first over time this will fade away it might take weeks or even a few months depending on what you've done but if you are dealing with an emotionally healthy person they will not remain in a state for over a year there are families of victims who have been murdered and even they have managed to forgive the murderer after a few months any long-term abuse manipulation stalking or harassment will not be related to anything you have done the root of this behavior is envy if this was not true they would be focused on other people who have done the same thing or worse but they don't do that they focus on you and no one else they pretend that you are the only person who has ever done something wrong it is as though no one has ever done what you have done no one has ever done anything worse when in reality what you have done is probably not even that bad compared to what they have done to you or compared to what other people have done so there is no denying the real reason for all of this they will even try to set you up to make it look like you have done something wrong because they know you are not that bad they have to motivate themselves to abuse manipulate stalk and harass you they are lying about their true reasons and motivations for doing what they do the truth is they are just extremely envious of you they likely targeted you from the beginning the very qualities that they liked in the beginning soon became everything they want to destroy because they cannot partake in your greatness they cannot possess the positive qualities which you possess well you must be a pretty amazing person if all of these people are stalking and harassing you just ask yourself why aren't they doing this to anyone else they are only doing it to you because they are more envious of you than they are of anyone else you may be thinking how can they be more envious of me than anyone else there are people who have much more than me for them to be envious about well it doesn't matter how much you have when someone is envious it means that they want to take something from you even if they have more money than you or a loving relationship which you do not have they can still be envious of you pay attention to what they have sabotaged or what they are trying to sabotage now that is exactly what they are envious of I will do a video on envy and jealousy soon the smear campaign will create a very dangerous environment for you to live in the fly monkeys will go out of their way to harass you any sign of happiness or fulfillment with your life relationships friendships career or finances will trigger them to attack they feel no guilt only deep-rooted shame avoid revealing your personal information if you suspect you are dealing with a fly monkey narcissists work together with their fly monkeys anything you reveal to them will go back to the narcissist to be used as ammo and remember that the narcissist has most likely painted a picture of you to the fly monkeys and so they will all see you in a bad way so just avoid defending yourself to the fly monkeys it will not resolve anything they have already been conditioned and adopted the beliefs of the narcissist I hope this helps you to deal with the fly monkeys and the smear campaign thank you


He seemed relieved. Oh, absolutely. And here we go. The matchup going to be Sonya Blade versus Liu Kang. You could still be a soldier. Amongst life is more my speed. All right, then, Slow Kang. Round one, four. Get him! Directly in there trying it out, anyways, Kevo. And our option is, one thing about this guy, the execution is absolutely top notch. The reactions are some of the greatest. I mean, you can take all the fundamentals and just be like, he excels at all of them. No, you're right. You're right. Yeah, but here we go.  Sonya Blade, most characters, all takes his one sometimes. It's a little sloppy here at the beginning. Let's settle down. Yeah, they're stealing each other out right now. Still pressuring from the front here, Kevo. Oh, man, he's maintaining control. This is a guy that almost made a name for himself with how aggressive and how oppressive he was in MKX. And to see him so defensive here in MK11 in order to excel so much at the defense here on the 11 flawless blocks. It's a big win. Notice the gaps. Oh, my God. Huge damage on the front. There was no escape. You're not getting out of that one. Of course, fatal blows, breaking the armor that comes on a breakaway. And I think that Kevo knew that and saved those resources right there. So at the end of the day, that may not have been the worst decision for Kevo right there, because it was guaranteed regardless. Yeah, no, he's very aware. Oh, again trying the overhead. I think he's only trying overhead so far. He finished the strength. This is all conditioning right here. That one roll is going to come. But watch it go blocked. It's in. Look at the 3 out of 5. You conditioned it. He knows how this works. Playing with fire. How are they? Uh-oh. Oh, my goodness. To keep that choco going. Such awareness. Drop the ender, but that's OK. Has the health lead here in round number 2. Yep, controlling the stage. As she can do, she's both offensively extremely dangerous and great in mid-range too. Russell's the throw here. One thing to keep an eye on is how fluid Ninja Kill's movement is forward-backed. Does micro movement in footsie? Oh, my goodness. Canceling into the throw. Kevo respecting something there. Big whip himself. Only the throw punish. Yeah, that could have been much more. Oh, wait a minute. I would keep my eye on it. I wouldn't keep my eye on it. I wouldn't keep my eye on it. My bad. We got mixed. Yes, we did. Did he just yawn? He's feeling good up there. He should be after that. So game one goes to the Ninja Killer. Just holding it right there. And that's 2 for 2, where Kevo has not pressed buttons off that stance. Oh, both of them. All the way to the corner. Wait about wake up. Here comes Kevo. And of course comes off bars. Oh, my. Everything going Ninja Kill's way right now. Phenomenal position right here. No break, we're going to worry about that smoke bomb. Actual smoking mirrors here at a Kevo. Knock down again into the corner. Something is delayed. And it was, could have been this turn anyway. Didn't get too much out of it. Ninja Kill's got the corner again. And new escape. Some of that defensive bar will come back between rounds, as you can see, but still not a great spot for Kevo. You see a lot of wake up wall attempts. He's going to jump into the crushing flow. Whoa. Bring it on himself. He's looking for a flying kick or something out of him. I love it. There's actually a lot of wake up roles against Lu Kang because you make a read that they're going to make a parry on your actual wake up. Or you think that they're going to whip a 4-4-3, which is going to whip for days to get the punish. So very smart, I think, to kind of counter it or hear early on. Back throw right there, just in case. Ready for it. You guys watching from home, if you ever wonder why someone throws someone out of the corners, because it's incredibly hard to tech, that throw in would take you away. Yeah, you're expecting to be thrown back in the corner and look at the tech that way. Oh, no, probably trying to dash, cancel, no dice. What a punish. You're the punish always ready. We saw on his match with Big D, some boys that he was able to punish things with a flying kick. Absolutely sensational. And he's going to go up 2-0 here. Looking good. And now maybe that we're going to go back to character select here. We'll see what Kevill's choice is. And just like in pools, just like any time I've ever seen Ninja Kale here offline, he looks unfazed. Yeah, he looks it now. Oh, Kevill thinking about the Jackie pick. We saw Jackie an awful lot on stream yesterday. In that match with DJ T that went down to the wire. Oh, man, that was crazy. Yeah, that was a very, very close one in order to get into the top eight. Oh, hold on. Oh, we've got to go back to the CEO, of course. Come on, guys. Come on, guys. CEO stage only. 2-0 now for Ninja Killers. Was it the switch from Kevill, though? It definitely is here. Give me that tournament stage. And this is the other character that Ninja Killers knows inside and out. Oh, hold on. Oh, no, going back. You even saw it. Ninja Killers kind of turned the head right there, going, oh, OK. I was about to say he has extensive knowledge of Jackie, because that's his other main. But I believe if I saw on Twitter, he's trying to do this for King boys out there and represent. Looking great right now. Always a great change. So we'll see if Kevill can handle this differently. He's in trouble. I'm always up the mentality where if it ain't broke, OK. All right, so it makes the things up with just a little bit. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Both defensive bars lost just like that now. Ninja Killers gets a chance to pressure freely. That's a terrible. Oh, my goodness. He had the same beat twice. Knew the break rate was coming to. Didn't overextend right there. Very good. Was that a good turn on so far for Kevill? Trying to control things. No, but the kick comes in. What a read on that. Prop like it stood up a little too early. You can't stand up between the block to low ball ball, the amplify on the high. Whoa. He's really tried it again. Yeah, I'm starting to get a little concerned for Kevill with that punish. He could have. This is getting crazy. Are the throws going to be enough? Then it is. Ninja Killers match point. Yeah, Kevill's in trouble. Starting to flay a little bit, starting to play riskily a little bit in the way that I know it. I mean, it works sometimes, but this is a big moment of Ninja Killers, so solid. Dropping that punish on the fatal blow may have been a potential final nail to the coffin here. Didn't finish the string. That's what Ninja Killers was looking for, but here he's in. Setting things up for himself. This is the actual blender right here. The control. You have to make a guess as to when your turn is going to come. The amplify. Fine kick is going to do it. Ninja Killers 3-0. Move it on. Yes, Ninja Killers will move on. To the next round of Loser Side. But give it up for Kevill, everybody. Eliminated in seventh place.


I'm the storyteller and my stories must be told. Ah, the BBC Micro. A computer for the posh folk, I dare say. It didn't come cheap, you know, but despite its boxy appearance, the BBC Micro had a killer app that made it worthy of every penny. A game that promised not just the world but the entire universe.  That game was elite. Sure, by today's standards, the monochrome wireframe graphics might seem a bit primitive, but back then they were downright stunning. And that was just the beginning, my friend. With elite, David Brabham and Ian Bell gave birth to a vision of a computerised future that blew people's minds. And thanks to the BBC Micro's 32K, this impossibly big game was crammed into something quite small. Elite wasn't just any old game, no, sir. It was a universe simulator. It threw out the rulebook and gave players the freedom to be as good or bad as they damn well pleased. And let me tell you, that was a game changer. Elite was the kind of game that made you believe in the potential of technology. It was more than just a game. It was a dream come true. Ah yes, elite on the BBC Micro. A true pioneer in the world of video games. Its use of wireframe graphics to depict spaceships and environments was truly remarkable for the time and helped to establish it as one of the first 3D games ever made. The game's universe, with its vast open-endedness, was a true marvel. Players assumed the role of a space trader and fighter with the freedom to explore different star systems, trade goods and engage in epic space combat with other ships. But it wasn't just the game's sheer scale that captured players' imaginations. Elite was also highly acclaimed for its groundbreaking gameplay, which allowed players to chart their own course through the universe and make their own decisions about how to play the game. And with over 2,000 different planets to explore across 8 galaxies, the possibilities for the time truly felt endless. I think you'll like this. Professor Brian Cox was recently asked in an interview, What is the one fact about the universe that blows your mind? He went on to say, in the visible universe, although he hasn't counted it all yet, roughly there's around 200 trillion galaxies, which is based on surveys of the local universe. And then just to put things into perspective, the Milky Way has 400 billion stars in it. And to make us feel even smaller and more insignificant, it takes light over 100,000 years to reach one side of our galaxy to the other, and there are 2 trillion galaxies that we can see. That's just mind boggling. But get this, just that bit that we can see is a tiny part of what scientists believe is an infinite universe. Now scientists don't actually know that for sure. But when you think of it like that, nobody can picture it. It's impossible to visualize the sheer scale of the universe. And the way I've interpreted the story of David Brabham, the brains behind Elite, is that he had a dream, a dream of whisking players away to another world where they could roam through the vast reaches of space, blow stuff up in epic battles and trade their way to riches. I wish I could have dreamed that big, but that wasn't enough for Brabham, no. He wanted to take it to the next level to make a game that would be the benchmark for all future space exploration games, and boy did he deliver. Now of course, the games combat system was no walk in the park either. Players had to carefully manage their ship's speed, weapons and shields in order to outmaneuver and defeat enemy ships, adding a layer of complexity and challenge to the gameplay. And let's not forget the introduction of the Elite status, a new concept that players could achieve by accumulating a high score based on their trading, combat and exploration activities. Elite was an undeniable commercial success and it went on to be released on many other platforms including the Commodore 64, the Apple II and the IBM PC. Its impact on the development of other space trading and combat games cannot be overstated and its legacy can be seen in later games as well like Wing Commander and Eve Online. But even today Elite lives on in modern form and there was a Kickstarter that was funded called Elite Dangerous released in 2014. So all in all, Elite on the BBC Micro was a groundbreaking game that set new standards for open-world gameplay and had a lasting impact on the video game industry. So what a fantastic story already. Davey Brabham, the visionary game developer, was first introduced to the world of computer programming at a young age when he unwrapped an acorn atom Christmas 1981. Now this humble machine with a modest amount of RAM captured the young Brabham's imagination and he quickly began to explore the possibilities of programming in basic. Now fast forward a bit to his university years at Cambridge where he studied physics it was there that Brabham decided to turn his passion for programming into a career co-founding a software development company called Frontier Developments but it was with his groundbreaking game Elite co-created with Ian Bell that Brabham truly made his mark on the industry. So I know what you're thinking. So how did Davey Brabham team up with Ian Bell to create the seminal video game Elite? So it's quite an interesting one and it goes back to their shared experiences as students at Cambridge University. The story goes Brabham and Bell were both studying at the university in the early 1980s and they were both avid fans of video games. They had mutual interest in creating a new kind of space exploration game that was more sophisticated than anything that existed at the time. So they decided to team up and work on the project together. Brabham had some programming experience having worked on his own game projects in the past while Bell was more focused on the design and the gameplay aspects. Together they worked on Elite for two years solid with Brabham handling most of the technical coding and Bell contributing to the game's overall design and storyline. The results was a game that was truly groundbreaking featuring a vast open world space environment that players could explore and trade in along with a complex combat system and a rich narrative. You could become a space trader, a pirate or a bouncy hunter and go to town on a range of activities from mining asteroids to dogfighting with other ships plus the game's open world design meant that players could venture through the galaxy at their own pace essentially forging their own unique stories and adventures. In a book called The Video Game Guide by Matt Fox Matt went on to say that Brabham and Bell created a living breathing universe filling the vastness of space with countless planets each with the unique characteristics not to mention space stations pirates police asteroids sinister areas of which space thargoid battle cruisers and more all incredibly squeezed into the BBC Micro's 32k of memory. Now also Stuff Magazine they did a top 100 games and Elite on the BBC Micro came number 12 and they said the game that hooked a generation it introduced a 3d world eight entire galaxies actually and convinced us that we'd all be working as spaceship pilots by 2008 which admittedly some of us are they went on to say the creators of Grand Theft Auto site Elite's open 3d world has a key inspiration it is the daddy and the same people who played it as kids back in the day and now probably embroiled. David Brabham has also stated in many interviews that he was generally happy with the original version of Elite on the BBC Micro while there were some limitations due to the computer's hardware he felt that they were able to create a game that was groundbreaking for its time and push the boundaries of what was possible on an 8 bit platform right so when it comes to how many copies the 1984 version of Elite sold in its many variations it's a bit tricky to pin down an exact number but what we do know is he sold a lot and I'm talking well over a million copies making it one of the most successful games of the 1980s so in closing Elite was a game that captured the imagination of players all around the world and set the standard for space exploration game for years to come and that's a pretty impressive achievement if you ask me well we've come to the end I hope you enjoyed this video if you did please like comment subscribe ring that bell and how about giving us a big thanks and one final request share the hell out of it so until next time bye
