Good morning everyone. My name is Anne-Williams Isom and I'm the Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services. And I'll turn the mic over to the Mayor in just a minute but I'd like to acknowledge some folks that are here with us in the room today. We have Carla Smith, Deputy CEO of Urban Resource Institute. Wilfredo Lopez, Director of Government Affairs at URI. Lauren Schuster, Vice President of Government Affairs at URI. Mitchell Netburn, President and CEO of Samaritan Daytop Village. Jerry Henney, Vice President for Transitional Housing at Samaritan Village. Scott O'Whorter, Assistant Executive Director of Bronx Works. Orlando Ivy, President and CEO of Children's Rescue Fund. And Jeanine Costley, Senior Vice President for Transitional Services Institute for Community Living. We also have my brother Shams DeBaron, an advocate and voice for those with lived experience. And I also know Sarah Wilson was supposed to be here today. I wanted to give her a shout out. She could not be here today. Thank you all for being here today for this very important announcement. We are here to talk about an action that the administration is taking to help New Yorkers on their journey to stable housing and how we're making that process easier particularly for those living in shelter. We all know how important having a stable home is in our lives and appreciate how tough that can be in New York City in particular, whether you are a native New Yorker or someone who has adopted the Big Apple as your beloved home. With that said, I'll turn it over to Mayor Adams to discuss the details of today's action. Thanks so much. And thank all of you, all those who have advocated for this important emergency order that we're going to do. But if I can, I want to first just give an update on the weather. New Yorkers realize that we went through a horrific experience two weeks ago. The fire in Canada is still places that's out of control. The FDNY Commissioner has been communicating with underground officials there to see how much of an assistance we can be. They ask for some personnel and we're going to continue to help them. Due to these fires, we can see smoke across the city today and potentially tomorrow. Last night, we sent out a notified NYC alert to New Yorkers about the potential smoke today. While smoke may be visible, it is expected to remain moderate and below the threshold for issuing an air quality advisory. We know New Yorkers will be gathering this long weekend, participating in some events with marches for Father Day and also June 10th. So we're asking people to know their bodies and take the necessary precaution. And while air quality is only forecast 24 hours in advance, we will provide updates as needed throughout the weekend. The FDNY NYPD will be providing free N95 mask at locations across the city this weekend. In the meantime, we recommend all New Yorkers to take the precaution. New Yorker stepped up a week ago when we experienced this previously. We need to remain vigilant, particularly as these fires continue. So we're not stating at this time for everyone to stay inside. We're telling those at risk to pay attention and exercise caution if things get a little worse. The most important thing is to listen to your body air quality conditions in New York City this weekend may be unhealthy for some people, particularly those with pre-existing conditions. People with heart or breathing problems and older adults may be more sensitive to air quality conditions and should consider limited prolonged or intense outdoor activities. At any time if you're having trouble breathing, call 911. Check the air quality. New Yorkers can stay up to date by signing up for notify NYC at nyc.gov notify, calling 311 or downloading the mobile app. And you can check the air quality index for your neighborhood at the environmental protection agencies at noun.gov site. And as I said last week, climate change is here. This is a reminder. This is a real issue of how we must combat it. And we continue to lead on climate change issues. This is something that this administration and previous administrations have been focusing on. That is the goal. Today, coming to our announcement, we are signing an emergency rule that is clearly important to put in place. This will end the long-standing 90-day length of stay requirement for our city FEPS rental assistance program effective immediately. The city FEPS programs allowed individuals and families to rent apartments at competitive market rates, rents based on the annual NYCHA Section 8 payment standards. Removing this rule will help even more people into permanent housing as quickly as possible and would do something without overburdening taxpayers. Today's announcements has been months in the making. Built on last year's city FEPS reform, something that Chief Housing Officer Jessica Katz really spent a lot of time on putting into place. And I want to thank you, Jessica, for your service and for just your vision on these issues. As well as other programs like the Street to Home Pilot that plays homeless in New York is directly into supportive housing initiative that we started. Since taking office, we have been focused on housing more people, reducing bureaucracy and streamlining streamlining our processes and increasing funding for affordable housing to a record level of $24 billion. And so today's announcement will help continue this record of achievement and highlights the good work our city government delivers every day. And I want to thank everyone at DSS and other agencies for their outgoing efforts to help New Yorkers get the housing they need and the housing they deserve. I'm proud of the work our city does every day to help those in care and find safety and stability. We continue to do everything in our power to address this housing crisis. But as we've been saying, we need you Albany. Clearly we're looking at a series of bills that was placed on the sideline last legislative session that must be looked at. So that we want people to have vouchers that can help them find permanent homes. We need to really build the housing New Yorkers need the state lawmakers must pass a 421 a replacement allow more office conversion and lift the cap on housing and Midtown Manhattan. We continue to advocate for these changes even as we ramp up our own efforts. Today's announcement is an important step forward. Rude change will help get both families and single adults families and single adults and shelter the help they need when they need it with more precision and less red tape and bureaucracy. As we have said so often, the solution to homelessness is permanent housing. And with this change, we will move more New Yorkers into homes that can call they can call their home faster and even more reliable than before. Thank you. Thank you for all involved. Thank you, Mayor. Now we'd like to hear from Molly Park, the commissioner from the Department of Social Services. It is okay. All right. All right. Thank you, Deputy Mayor. Good morning. I'm Molly Wasio Park. I'm the commissioner for the Department of Social Services. As some of you might know, I've spent most before joining DSS. I used to work at the HPD, the city's housing agency and strengthening access to affordable housing for low income New Yorkers has been the foundation of my career. Today's announcement is especially close to my heart as we further expedite connections to housing opportunities for New Yorkers in shelter. The wide range of city FEPS reforms that we announced late last year are already in effect, helping even more New Yorkers get stably housed. And the system changes we've made process and staffing improvements and tech innovations to expedite placements are playing paying off. As a result of these efforts, we've been able to increase our total subsidized housing placements by 20% year over year. This year we're on track to place to connect a record number of households to city FEPS vouchers. Bottom line, DSS is the city social service agency, but we're also a housing agency. DSS administers rental subsidies for 56,000 households. That makes us effectively the fourth largest housing authority in the country. We can also continue to work on creative solutions with our agency partners to facilitate the creation of affordable housing for our clients. While we know there is always more work to be done, our efforts are headed in the right direction. And with today's important step, we look forward to continuing to build on the important progress that we've made. With the elimination of the length of stay requirement, we'll be able to move more New Yorkers from shelter to permanent housing more quickly while freeing up much needed capacity in the DHS shelter system. I want to thank our incredible not for profit partners, some of whom are here today. We can't do this work without you. And I'm especially grateful to Mayor Adams and Deputy Mayor Williams Isom for leading the way and truly leading no stone unturned in the city's efforts to ensure that despite unprecedented challenges, we remain equipped to provide care for every vulnerable family and individual who comes to us in need of shelter. Thank you. Commissioners, thank you so much for all the work that you've done. And thank you so much for saying yes to us when we asked you to take this position. Now I'd like to bring up Carla Smith, Deputy CEO from the Urban Resource Institute. Good morning. Thank you, Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Commissioner for the opportunity to speak today. As mentioned, my name is Dr. Carla Smith. I'm the Deputy CEO for Urban Resource Institute. We are the largest provider of domestic violence shelter services in New York City and around the country. For those who don't know, URI provides shelter and trauma informed care to families experiencing homelessness and survivors of domestic violence, including those who have pets. On an average evening, we serve more than 2,200 people in one of our 22 shelters across the city. At URI, we know far too well how real the struggle is for our clients to find safe, stable and affordable housing. URI's dedicated staff begins providing comprehensive services as soon as our clients walk through the door. We help them to stabilize and obtain the skills required to achieve and maintain housing. However, that process has often taken way too long prior to today. I'm so proud to be here today. As Mayor Adams takes this important action to further expand access to City Febs housing vouchers for New Yorkers in shelter. With this rule change, our staff can immediately begin working to help clients find safe and secure their next home. This administration is working to strengthen access to rental assistance, cut the red tape as the Mayor already indicated, and eliminate barriers to permanent housing for vulnerable New Yorkers. Against the backdrop of an ongoing humanitarian crisis, it's critical that we continue to work together to provide resources to every single person experiencing homelessness. This step that the Mayor is taking today will help free up much needed shelter space, enabling us as providers to move more quickly to place clients into permanent housing. And it will make a significant difference to the lives of the people that we serve. Mayor Adams, thank you to you and to your leadership team for all this work and for actually taking this important step today. At URI, we look forward to continuing our work to partner with the City to provide safe and stable temporary and permanent housing to those in need. Now, our CEO, Nathaniel Fields, who was supposed to be here today, could not be here, but he wanted me to just share a few words and reiterate his excitement and appreciation, applauding the City's efforts to do this today. He did want me to mention that there is more work to be done, right, and we all know this as providers in the community, that we must meet the challenges of this moment with a call to action. That call to action for everyone in this room and beyond involves needing a more comprehensive and coherent national immigration policy. We know we must take action, and what we need now is a political will to do that. We must create real solutions to address our shared humanitarian crisis, and we are part of that solution, along with the other providers in this room and in the City. Thank you, Mayor. Appreciate it. I won't even tell you what he said. Thank you. Thank you, sister, and I left off your doctor, so Dr. Smith, thank you so much. Now we'd like to hear a few words from Shams DeBaron, from his personal experiences. If I could read this. Thank you, Deputy Mayor. Good morning, everybody. Today I'm proud to stand by the Mayor, the Deputy Mayor, the Commissioners, Chief Housing Officer, and all of you who are here because we're celebrating an important occasion. As someone who has lived in the shelter, slept on our streets, raised my son in the family shelter system, slept in the subways, and struggled for such a long time in search of affordable housing in New York City, I know very well how that could negatively impact a person's mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.  While my search for housing is finally over today, I continue to fight to make things better for my brothers and sisters in need, and I'm grateful for being able to help so many people with the support of our Mayor who opened up the doors of City Hall and welcomed not just me, but other impacted advocates like Sarah Wilson. And as we took our seats at the table and began helping to bring change to the broken systems that have been a staple of city government, everyone has been supportive in this administration. The city FEPS reforms that were implemented last year were the direct result of real and focused interactions with homeless New Yorkers. When impacted advocates gave voice to what we felt was the most needs, our most important needs without intermediary, the result was a clearer understanding of the issues and what needed to be done to properly address our issues. So we're celebrating at City Hall because the city is removing yet another barrier to permanent housing for homeless New Yorkers. With this action the administration is doubling down on the commitment to reducing administrative burdens for our vulnerable communities. Last night there were 80,613 people in our city shelters, 26,970 of them with children. It is clear from these numbers that we are in a homelessness and lack of affordable housing crisis. We're facing challenges that we're not even on our radar a year ago this time. So I believe it's important to work toward a sensible solution that will not ignore the plight of those who are already stuck in shelters. We can't talk about racial equity. If we allow 90% of the black and brown people to remain stuck in shelters without a quick pathway to housing. And I'm saying this, a city divided against itself will not stand during this time of crisis. I humbly encourage all of us to come together, roll up our sleeves, put our differences aside, center people over politics, listen and engage with those closest in proximity to the issues and work collectively to solve homelessness in our city. Thank you Mayor Adams for continuing to cut the red tape and expanding access to housing for New Yorkers in need. Shams thank you so much for that powerful testimony and now I think we are moving to the table Mayor. Sounds like a plan. What's the song? What's the song? I've been trying to figure out what song you want me to play. I don't know what to say. I'm going to shower, to shake it, to decide it. Tiffany told me no so now I'm like curious. I don't know what to say. New York state of mind. I don't know what to say. Give away. You want to talk? You're subjugating. You. What about on time? You got time. Molly, stand on my right side. You know. He's now the mayor quality piece that the mayor mentioned. We got, we got my... So Mr. Mayor with this announcement are you now looking to veto the package of council bills that would have suspended this rule and also expanded eligibility for the vouchers and other ways? Well, I think that today is significant and it really wants to thank Jessica of just for her overall service to our city and her overall approach to the housing crisis.  You have to dam many rivers that feed the sea of something. There are many rivers that are feeding the sea of homelessness. Today we're damning one. And I think that that was the intention of my friends in the council. They wanted to get rid of the 90 day rule. But when you look at the entire package that they presented, some of the items in that package are problematic. And I think it's going to course New Yorkers. I think their estimate was $11 billion. Our estimate is an area of $17 billion. We have 20,000 vouchers out there currently and to add that pool to those who fall back in their rent for a short period of time, you're just going to make it difficult for those who are in homeless shelters now difficult for them to get out. And so at the heart of this was removing the 90 day rule. We're on the same page. We negotiated a plan. We were there together. Somehow went into another direction, but we want to get this done. We heard the advocates talk about this for a long time, our conversation with many, some who are here, some who are not here. This is a major another barrier, as Sham stated, that we have to continue to dismantle this problem of homelessness, which is interesting, even in our dismantling another river comes open as it was alluded to over 70,000 migrant asylum seekers. So it's going to continue to evolve and we got to be ready to shift. So parts of that package, we think it's going to hurt taxpayers and we're not trying to raise tax dollars and we think it's going to cause, we don't see what they're going to be able to do it. So is that a veto? How does this signing play into what might be a strategy of trying to sustain a veto on the larger bill will that help pick off council members who will support you in a veto? It's a strategy of dismantling a 90-day rule. That's our strategy. Our, my council, Judge Radix, is going to deal with any legalities that's dealing with the bill. We will deal with what our next steps are once that's in front of us. But listen, we are pleased with the working of the city council and what we're doing. You don't agree on everything but we agree on a lot. When people say that we're not working together you can just look at what we were able to accomplish with the outdoor dining. This is going to create 100,000 jobs. It's going to allow us to deal with removal of those unsightly sheds. We came together and we were able to accomplish that. So we are accomplishing things together and we're going to disagree on them. That's the beauty of this type of government that you have two bodies that will come together and come with solutions like we did with the outdoor dining. What's happening? Well, so this role here folks who are new, that's the role right there. That's the role right there. So the commissioners said that this would clear up or free up much needed space in the shelter system. I'm wondering how many places in the shelter system and are you hoping that that could be freed up from migrants and also you've been talking about cheaper options to house migrants. Of course you've been contracted with hotels, other large scale spaces. Would this be cheaper also for the city to have migrants going into the regular shelter system and also how much cheaper? I just want to do one correction, one of the things that we've made. I will move you out of that role and Jeff Mays will take that seat. He'll be part of that role. We want you in the front. We have to find cheaper ways. Clearly the numbers are not subsiding. I don't think people realize we're still dealing with this issue.  We're still navigating upstate. The judge is still dealing with lawsuits up there. We're still trying to find partners. We're still trying to get the funding and we have to find a cheaper way to do this because it's just not sustainable. We're looking at many ways of how we're going to deal with that influx of migrant and asylum seekers. Our goal is to get people into permanent housing. That's our goal. We can't accomplish that goal if the inventory is not there. The inventory comes with the extension of 421A with lifting the FAR, with doing a hotel conversion, with building around transit hubs. People often look at the city and say build more without realizing the beginning process of building more starts upstate. You guys saw what happened upstate. No housing package came out of Albany. If you were to ask every elected official in Albany, what's the number one crisis we're facing in the city? Probably the top 3 housing is going to be there. So how could we in a session not going with one of our top 3 issues? I just don't see how that could happen. Mr. Mayor, you still haven't said whether you will veto the council's package of legislation or not. And secondly, I'm wondering what happened that the administration could not come to an agreement with the city council at least over the 90-day wall. Even if you disagreed with the other parts of the package, why couldn't the city the administration and the council at least agree on the 90-day wall? Yes, you stated that I still haven't said that if I was going to move forward to the entire package. And once we do, we will let you guys know right away. I don't know why we didn't come to agreement. We were clearly on the same place. We sat down together. We said, listen, we got it. We're with you. Let's go forward. And so that's the question that I think you have to present to the council. It was the entire package that we saw we can't afford by their numbers $11 billion. $11 billion. On top of the fiscal cliff we're going to face next year when the COVID dollars run out. On top of these 70-something thousand migrant assignment seekers, over 90,000 combined in our shelter system. When you look at all of these financial crises that we're facing to add another $11 billion on their numbers, $11 billion on our numbers, it's just not going to add up for taxpayers unless people are talking about raising taxes, which we cannot continue to overburden taxpayers on doing. Wow, you kind today. Thank you. Thanks. To your point, Mr. Mayor, advocates have called for doing away with this rule for a long time, basically since you took office. Why did you wait to do this until the council passed the legislation, number one, and number two, can you explain a little bit what goes into you opting to do this by an executive order, as opposed to just signing the council bill that I assume is sitting on your desk? First, the advocates were calling for this prior to me taking office. You said since I took office, I just want a little accuracy on this, but the calls were prior to me taking office. We're clear on that, right? Okay, there you go. But he didn't do it. I'm doing it. And as I stated, the package of bills that they have, we have issues with so many items in the package. We agree on the 90 days rules, but we don't agree with looking at the existing 20,000 vouchers that are out there that are going to add another population on top of that. That is going to cause people to stay into shelters longer. Part of our overall plan. The chief housing officer mapped out a series of things. Let's not give the impression we were sitting on our hands. Jessica Katz mapped out a series of things that we were going to do. We were up in Albany fighting to get this legislation passed.  IGA went up. We had a series of things. Remember I said we have to dam several rivers. We were negotiating with the council on the 90 day rule to say let's do this together. Let's not add other burdens in. So there was a series of things we were doing. We were not standing still to the contrary. Chief housing officer, her team, the entire team was working on a series of things. We would have been working with the council like we were doing. Outdoor dining. But unfortunately they put a package together that we cannot see that's not going to overburden taxpayers. Why are you yelling, man? I want you to get into breathing. You know, I would love to sign it. If they take that out of the package, I would love to sign the 90 day rule. We did it today. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. We're going to do the next one. Yes. Okay. Thank you, Kate. You said that the city has to make the council package that costs $17 billion. Is there a cost to just eliminating the rule as you're doing today? Is there a budget impact to just eliminating the rule? What is the cost? I believe the OMB estimate is about $123 million a year.


Hello and welcome back to the craft box.

Never before have I met a war where you're so steadfast, so unyielding. The Metal Temple is open to you. Okay. Let us head over to the Metal Temple. Two more to go. Yay. I might get a bit of life. Where is the life fountain? I don't even know. I think it's up this way. Well, we could do that. We can go to the Metal Temple, which is up here somewhere down this way. Yes, I was right on this white one. Okay. That's the Metal. It's into Metal, and then water must be that last one over there is what I imagine. Okay. Seek in last one. Let's see what you can do. Oh, this is the one with the bars. That's right. Oh, you would seek the key of water. First you must solve the riddle of steel. That's right. I remember this. Okay, we'll go you, you, and first stroke, first stroke, first stroke. You know what, Monkey King? You can come out for a bit just because I miss you. Um, solve the riddle of steel. So basically we need to use these in order to solve this puzzle. I can't remember what this puzzle is, but we're going to solve it, hopefully. Basically, it's just these, so yeah, absorbing damage. Okay. Nice. Okay, Overwatch again. Okay, so what I might do is probably just get the minions out first. Some of them are trapped, which is good. Like this one down here, he's trapped. He can't get out. So if I, basically, if I get these guys out first, um, you know what, that's not even helpful. Not even helpful. Let's just get this guy out first, and then we'll go on to the next riddle part. Yeah, sounds good. Because in the end, I think we have to defeat all of them. So might as well just get them out as you go. So, really?  Monkey King, you're bad. Nice. Perfect. Okay. Block, please. Please block, Monkey King. I brought you out for a reason because you're good. Now, please make me not regret my decision. Um, good. You can do him. Um, how much do you have? 3,000? Okay. Yeah. Okay, burst fire. Nice. Okay, he's nearly dead, which is good. Boot, double tap. Nice. Boob. There we go. The post. Cool. Um, yeah, I'm gonna start moving now.  Could be able to finish off right now. We can. Okay, so let's go and activate this one. I forget which way it goes, but we need to be careful of the spike traps, um, because the spike traps are annoying. So yeah, we'll just go like that. And hopefully, I think if you go down the side of the spike traps, it doesn't, um, do it. Be sure to go there. You can, Monkey King can hit that. You can stay and you can stay done. I'm not sure because it might be a cheeky one and not do that one. Maybe it does. Oh, it does. Okay, cool. Rip agility. Uh, no, we need to go down here. I can do that one right now, to be honest. There we go. Now I have plenty of space to sort of go about. There we go. Ripper's blocking damage. Um, perfect. Nice overwatch there, juicy overwatch. Um, no block, which is unfortunate, but we can bring you down this way. You can go there, you can go there. Done. Okay. Dodge, no. Quick adjust is good though. Um, yeah. These battles are really cool. I really like these. They're really unique, which is really, really cool. Like you don't see this. Really? Stop blocking. It's rude. Um, it's really unique and you don't really see, like for the instance this one, you don't really see this elsewhere. That's really cool. Okay, that's good. So turn the tide. That's good. He's low. Okay, that's good. There we go. Okay. Yay. Okay, you would hit me, wouldn't you? Um, what are we going to do? I need to get him out before I can move over because he's standing on a spike. Um, I can go like that though, I suppose. Done. There we go. Perfect. That's good. Go duck holiday, go. Use that statue to bring all the other ones down. You know what? Just flip it. We'll just scale it anyway. Yeah, we'll just go like that. Done. Okay. Oh, it doesn't do much damage anyway, so it's fine. There we go. Oh my, more open. Okay then. More spawn. Okay, that's not fair. At least we can go everywhere now, which is good.  Bladestain, really? Okay, calm down. Yeah, hit duck holiday. Okay, we're getting wrecked here now. Um, what are we doing? What do we got? What do we got? What do we got? What do we got? Defeat all, really? Really? You are Chinatide Vengeance first strike.  Just go on you, because we can. He can't dodge too much now, which is good. Um, double tap. Boop. Mega hit, nice. Double tap. Yay. On him as well, which is good. He's got a lot of health, though. Block. Monkey King, block, please. This is actually a really hard battle. I remember this. This is hard. Ah, parting shot, nice. He's going over to duck holiday, which is good. Attack. Boop. I forgot that more spawn. This is not cool. Ah, pet, please come. Thank you. It just comes when I want it to. It's great. We are going to go like, no, um, go like that? Sure. This is going to go really badly. I'm just seeing it right now. Really, Monkey King? Come on. Come on, Monkey King. You can do this, man. Thank you. I believe in you, Monkey King. You have my beliefs. Block? No, okay. Ripped Monkey King. That's unlucky. Slade Storm, really? You're not that good. Chill. Oh, really? Okay. Oh, really? Okay, this is, this is not cool for. This sort of behavior is untolerated here, and that was weird. This sort of behavior is very untolerated here. Okay, so I'm about to finish this battle. It's kind of weird because, like, no, none of the people wanted to, like, touch my henchmen that I got. They're all just, like, they're just like, no, it's not real. He wants to go for dead, dead me character, but, and not the henchmen, which is really weird. I have never met my equal before today. You showed suppleness and strength in equal measure. You may enter the water temple. Okay, I don't know if I can enter the water temple. It's kind of a struggle already. I'll be back once I am in the water temple because I need to go heal companions and so on and so forth. I don't know how I'm going to face you. I'm kind of scared to be honest, but no, let's go. So yeah, heal these guys up. They're all ready to go. So yeah, let's do this, hopefully. Basically, this is really kind of easy, I think. I also went to my trainer and got a few more things, so that was good. Yeah, I got a new AoE case shot, which is like the big triangle-y one, and new agility, and elusive three. So yeah, hopefully I should dodge more when I'm dying, which is good. Perfect, but nice, but cool. Amazing. Yeah, canister shot, not case shot, canister. So yeah, that does that sort of stuff. Sniper shot. You can do that, and you can hit him as well. Done. Hope, let's see what this looks like. That's actually quite cool. That's quite a, that's quite cool. I quite like that one. Nice. Sweet. Burstfire is good. Burstfire again. Amazing. Just as well as Shantel back. You can live without her. Nice. Burstfire. Really good, okay. Wow. Okay, that's one down, and they haven't even hit us yet, which is good. So yeah, that's amazing. Now they're finally coming up to hit us. Okay, this should be good. Okay, blue onies, and you're just gonna stay there. Cool, that's fine. I'm gonna do that. You can hit him, you can hit him, you can hit him. Done. Sweet. Nice. That was actually really good. Okay, sweet. These guys are actually really easy compared to the middle. The middle is definitely the hardest of them all, I would have to say. Middle is definitely the hardest. Yeah. But, but, but, but, but nice double tap. Oh wait, no, she's reused all the double tap. Well, that's the Guardian now. We just got these pesky onies left, which shouldn't be too hard because they're privateers and they don't do too much damage. Basically, they have eaps health, but don't do too much damage. So that's good. Uh, we will use one of you and just spam him because he hopefully might die, and if he doesn't, then we can surely get a double tap from somewhere. No, okay, we did anyway. That's good. Um, boop, nice. Boop, nearly. Yes, we did it. Sweet. That was very easy. The last battle is really, really easy. So don't give up hope. Okay, so you don't give up hope if you're feeling really down after like that last battle. The middle one is the hardest of them all. Water is really easy. So you just, just keep your, keep your head high and continue on with amazing advice. So good. Yeah, so let us head over to this golden ladder and talk to Kaudzu, which is here. It's not really golden. It's just a ladder. They lied. They lied. But here we are. Finally. Finally, the end of Mushu. This is crazy. This is actually such a cool place. You can see like everything. It's amazing. Here we go. Kaudzu. Marco Poyo's map. He was once my student and learned much within the celestial shrine. Chief among his studies was astrology, the movement of stars through the heavens, and the alignment of the worlds of the spiral. His map contains a secret, symbols revealing the path to Shangri-La city of the immortals. Poyo called it El Dorado. I will teach you how to read the symbols and decipher my students map. They reveal where and when the next gate to Shangri-La will open. But you must have all the tables to make such a prediction. You need all of the pieces of the map to find Shangri-La. I see much from my vantage point in the celestial shrine. I know that the armada has two pieces of the map, and you also two. Three pieces are yet to be accounted for, but one will come to light soon. Your friend with the bird has news for you.  But for now, you must return to where it began. So the reason why it's all like really mellow right here and like oh you need it like it's like an end and all that is because this was originally the end of the game until they released Aquila and Mollybone in like a year later or something. But yeah, let us head off to Skull Island once again and talk to Avery and see what he has to say about the next piece of that map. Okay Avery, load please. Thank you. Life fountain bound, I heard you. Sweet. So yeah, let us head up this staircase. There's a full 360 there, I don't know why. Yeah, let's head into Avery. Head into Avery, that sounds so weird. Let's head in to talk to Avery. Yeah, I'm just going to stop talking and let Avery talk because, yeah. And that's where the game finished at one point. Okay, so next episode, I'm a little 50, that's crazy. What is this? Yep, you're good. So next episode, we will start Mollybone. We're nearly done with the game, which is crazy. So yeah, next episode we'll start Mollybone. In between episodes, I'm going to do a bit of side quest because I've got quite a few. I'll also be upgrading my companions, getting new gear, basically just doing a whole lot of stuff that you probably don't want to know about. So yeah, thank you for watching.

One run game in the bottom of the eighth inning. The Marlins trying to hold them right there, get some out so they can mount their comeback, win the game. This one is brought to you by SeatGeek. Thank you to SeatGeek for sponsoring the breakdown. The count is going to go to 3-0. Not a good start, but he fights back at the called strike. 3-1 gets the foul ball. Now it's a full count, and the batters takes his time. And he steps in. Now he's got to be in the box looking at the pitcher and ready to go by the eight second mark. That doesn't happen. The catcher realizes it, and he's like, hey, wait. Because the pitcher, he needs those eight seconds to get ready to throw the pitch. And the pitcher doesn't have those eight seconds, so now he's behind. And the catcher's like, look, look, look, hey, hold up.  The ump says time. He throws the pitch anyway, and the ump says time. Hold on, what happened? He's like, well, I told him, we all called time. And the ump behind the plate is like, hold on. OK, hold on. He's got the Marlins coach coming out saying, what's going on here? What's the call?  And the ump says, hey, hey, I'll go talk to all the other umps. We'll figure this out, don't worry. So look, I'll slow it down. He says, hey, he got to the box late. How come you didn't notice that blue? He says, what's going on?  And the ump puts his hand up, says time. And then he says, no, no, no, time, time. And then the pitch is thrown anyway, because the pitcher must just be in the zone. And then the ump doesn't call ball. He says, hold up, and puts both hands up from the opposite angle. Hey, step off, time, both hands up. Now, that right there usually is the signal for time by an umpire, like nah. And the batter's looking at him. And then he's going to go talk to his other ump. She's like, did I miss a time request on there? I don't know. Mad coach, mad coach in waiting. And it's a ball. Now, that's the crew chief. And he's like, there's nothing, no controversy here. The guy behind home plate, he knows something's up. Maybe he messed up. So he's like not accept, it's a ball. He's not accepting that he's talking to the other umps. Like, did you guys see me say time? What's going on here? And he goes, it's a ball. It's a ball no matter what, huh? And they're like, yeah, well, you didn't call time. You know, it's fine. And he can't call time. So then this ump is like, all right. Yeah, okay, go to first. So you can't call time. And then they're just real mad on the other. You call time out. I called time. So you called time. You can't call time. You're out. And he gets ejected right there by home plate umpire for arguing a very light ejection. Just you're out. Psst. And he's like, yes I can. I can take a mound visit. I can call time. He can't call time. And now they're both gonna argue with both umpires at the same time and they have a synchronized motion. But this is what the catcher's saying. Oh yeah, I called time. And then he did. And the ump must say, you can't call time because they're saying the line. He says, yes I can. I can take a mound visit. The ump says, yeah, but you have to call time to do that. He says, I called time. It doesn't matter. Yes it does. You're gone. Double ejected. Both umps. What? What? Huh? You called time out. No I didn't. What? Yes you did.  We all saw you put your hands up.  What is he supposed to do?  What is he supposed to do? What is he supposed to do? You want me to run? Yeah, toss me. I'll toss you. Because he called time. We don't have to award it. He called it. He called it. He called it. What's he supposed to do? The pitch was a ball. He called it. The pitch was a ball. He stands up because he called time. He's not allowed to call time.  If he does not have to call time. You said time out. Ketcher's getting honest with him now. Like looking in his eyes like hey don't wrong me here. Don't gas like me.  What? I know and then I called time out and you said time. You called time. Oh I never said it. Don't put words in my mouth. He called time. I know this is what I'm saying. Then he stood up because you called time. You called time. I know I did. He admitted it. Look at him. I mean the managers went a few good men on. I made him admit it right in front of everybody. Did you order the cold room?  Look at him. They're porting them out. They're like look look. Did you just hear that? So he stood up and now this umpire the crew chief has got double fingers out like okay I got a back track because my guy just outed himself and I was trying to protect him here. He's like it doesn't matter. None of that oh my goodness. Look at that reaction. Just oh my brain. I can't take this. He called time out. He did call time.  Yes he called it. But did you call it first? I called it. It doesn't matter. It's first base. It's a ball. What? And then that's kind of it. I give up. Oh my God. I give up.  Oh tastes can't believe it. They just feel like they're being lied to. You know I love rookie managers when they get in their first arguments. They're like what? And then these fans they bought their tickets from Seagate for sure. Maybe don't know but you can and you should. Use code Johnboy. You get $20 off your first purchase. That was kind of wild one. I mean home plate umpire knows he called time. He also missed the pitch clock violation and then you know you called time man. You know you called time. You kind of admitted at the end there according to their reactions and this didn't affect the game at all.


Welcome to the session. In this session we shall discuss about the similar figures. Two figures having the same shape but not necessarily the same size are called similar figures. Consider these two circles. These two figures have same shape but they don't have same size so they are the similar figures. Next we have two polygons of same number of sides are similar if falling two conditions are satisfied. The first one is their corresponding angles are equal. The second condition is their corresponding sides are in the same ratio. We know that a triangle is a polygon so we can also say that two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and their corresponding sides are in the same ratio. Consider these two triangles ABC and PQR. As you can see their corresponding angles are equal and their corresponding sides are in the same ratio so we say triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR. Now let's discuss very important theorem which is basic proportionality theorem. According to this theorem we have that if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle the other two sides in distinct points then the other two sides are divided in the same ratio. Given this triangle ABC if we draw a line parallel to the side BC of this triangle this is the line L we have drawn L parallel to the side BC of the triangle. This line intersects the other two sides at the points D and E. According to basic proportionality theorem we get that AD upon DB is equal to AE upon EC. That is the line L divides the two sides that is AB and AC of the triangle in the same ratio. Next we have converts of basic proportionality theorem. According to this we have if a line divides sides of a triangle in the same ratio then the line is parallel to the third side. Consider this triangle ABC this line L divides the two sides AB and AC of the triangle in the same ratio that is we have AD upon DB is equal to AE upon EC. Then according to the converts of basic proportionality theorem we get that the line L is parallel to the third side that is BC. This completes the session. Hope you have understood the concept of similar triangles, basic proportionality theorem and the converts of basic proportionality theorem.
