So before we get started, can I just ask, this is an infomercial, isn't it? No, this is not an infomercial. Well, you say that, but you're giving out prices about a price reduction from one's own. That may be the case, but I think it's my duty to pass on this information. And a sentence that I never ever thought I'd hear myself say. This is a bargain from PXG. Yeah, honestly, it's true, it's a bargain and it's from PXG.  I will get there in a minute, but you're going to have to bear with me a little bit. In this video, I'm going to do a couple of things. I am going to tell you about the PXG bargain, but I'm also going to tell you about my intention of how we might get to help PGA professionals through this period whilst they're struggling. And I want to see if we can do something on this channel to help out a little bit. There are a few clubs at the moment from PXG that you can get at a reduced price. I'm going to, I'll tell you about all those clubs a little bit later on, but to the PXG bargain, I think it is one particular, it's a set of irons and it's the 0211 irons. They were already at the lower end of the price scale for PXG. Many of you who watch the channel know that I put them in the bag. I was a massive fan of the irons until recently I moved over to the PXG Gen 3s. Yeah, I know, I know what you're all thinking. This is a PXG infomercial from the average golfer. Before we go any further, let me say one thing. If there are anybody out there, any manufacturers who want to reduce their prices and give me the ads up that I can pass them on to our viewers, I will gladly do it. So this is by no means a bias towards anyone. In fact, if you're watching, if manufacturers are watching out there, we've got a real situation going on at the moment. Why not contact the average golfer and tell me how you want to make some reductions in your pricing structure to help out some average golfers out there and something we can pass on and do a little bit in terms of price reduction on golf products right now, seeing as everybody's in a bit of a struggle. Anyway, let's get back to the story. A few days ago I reviewed, I did a head-to-head video of the PXG 0211 iron versus the new Gen 3 iron. That video will be out this week and keep an eye on it because it's very, very interesting to say the least. I've got both sets of clubs in hand, put them both to the test and like I said, there's a full in-depth review. Without giving any spoilers away, what I'll say is this, the 0211 performed extremely well and for me it was one of the best irons of 2019. In fact, the only reason it lost out on top spot when I did my top five irons of 2019 was down to price and that's just changed. So what is I think that is so good about these irons then? Well, first of all, I think they look fantastic. I love the sort of matte muted satin finish, I suppose you'd call it. PXG branding bold enough, we all recognise that right now. But to me, it's these kind of chamfered edges pretty much all round. That's a gap wedge there you'll see right the way around that top line and pretty much around the whole sole unit. But more importantly from the top line itself, when you sit these clubs at a dress, this chamfered edge sort of deceives the eye in terms of a lot thinner than it perhaps is. And on top of that, I mean the club I think looks good but sounds superb and the bit that always battled me is how they got these clubs which is a cast club to feel so good. The next thing I want to talk about is the top four, I had five irons but let's talk about the top four and basically I put the P790 in fourth place, I put, let me see how this worked out, it was the PXG that was in third place and it was in third place based on its price being so much more expensive than the others. We had the MP20HMB in second and at top of the pile we had the Callaway Apex. And again, there was very little to split those four clubs for me. If you take a look at them here, they're all superb looking clubs I think they tick every box in terms of what I would class as the modern day iron whereby there's plenty of help, forgiveness in a profile that's small enough to be easy on the eye and I think like I said they all do that. And to split them, it was very, very difficult to do that indeed but one of the major things was the price and if you look at the prices that they are today, so I've just gone online and searched these prices on, these are UK, I want to give you the prices, there's American offer as well but let me just talk about the price in the UK at the moment. So online retailers, P790, 999 for seven irons, the Apex is 1049 for seven irons and the MP20HMB is a massive 1250 for seven irons. So the big thing is, how much can you now get? 0211 irons from PXG4. And this is really interesting you know because they, I'll take, right, so the price is 126 a club in the UK, I don't know the dollar price but I know there's a price again available in the US and what I'm going to put is again, I'm going to put some contact details that you can, there's phone lines and email addresses that you can contact to access these prices. The other thing to mention at this point is Arizona in America is still open, there's no lockdown as I understand it as I made this video so manufacturers still going on and products are still getting out to customers so you can still order and access these products. But the real message is this, look, we've got to be careful because like I said what we don't want to do is put adverts on for manufacturers to sell product but the big deal for me is the fact that this is a huge change, these were and still in some places 200 pound per club and to come in at 126 that's a massive difference and if I was doing the review today of 2019 clubs that same top five that I did then the 211 would have been at the top of the pile because for everything it offers in terms of performance to couple it with that price then it's a real winning product and I want to tell my audience about that that's I think a fair thing to do. And like I said there's no bias here because if Mizuno, Callaway or TaylorMade want to give me a call and say you know what and we're going to reduce all our prices too we're going to make some additional efforts I'll do exactly the same video for each one of them for all the idiots out there that are going to comment on it let's just make one thing clear I make nothing out of this video whatsoever in terms of this is not a paid advert whatsoever so let's just clear that up before the comments start arriving this is purely me relaying information to my viewers so like I said no idiot comments please and respect the kind of information that I give across to my audience the final thing is this I just want to say that I mentioned earlier on in the video instead of helping out PGA professionals and I don't think this is something maybe it can be done in the US I don't know but certainly in terms of the UK audience I'm going to be putting out some posts on social media asking PGA professionals that are on lockdown that currently can't open the shop that don't have maybe an online facility to sell their products to get in touch and tell me what they're looking to move on what they're looking to sell if they've got some particular great offers on right now that they can perhaps get to you and you can support them in that way so the idea being that I'll put out the messages by all means share this information with anyone you know in terms of a PGA professional because they've got it tough right now they just come out of a real tough winter and for it to hit them right now when all the seasonal stock deliveries have just arrived then it must be really difficult so the idea of thought of in a way that can perhaps help is that I'll do one video per week which highlights a number of maybe there'll be a sort of a top ten in terms of the bargains or whatever there is and I'll give the details out maybe in the comments section or some links or whatever I'll work out a way of doing that but I just thought it was some way that perhaps if you are looking to buy a new product then perhaps we can sort of look to help PGA professionals and like I said whether I can do that across all Europe and Americas and whatever I don't know but certainly in terms of UK then I'll I don't know it may be a bad idea maybe there's too many obstacles in the way to do that I don't know but we'll make an effort to try and help out if we can anyway as ever thanks for watching like I said a real interesting one there a real change nothing nothing reviewed like there is a big review coming next week if you want to hang fire and look at the one one versus the gen three I have got plenty of interesting videos on the way that I filmed with the Mevo plus last week I've had a little bit of a few days off in terms of I did a lot of attaining data when I had the Mevo because I only had it for a short period of time which meant I didn't get to put any videos out but there's plenty on the way right everyone keep safe keep doing what we're supposed to be doing and hopefully we'll be back out on those golf courses just as soon as it's it's safe to do so right I'm off see you later

So that's what I want to try and do and the way in which I'm going to do it is to do with the taggers target board and it's going to work in two ways. It'll be a giveaway to reward loyalty but it will also hopefully provide further incentive and encouragement to work on your handicap reduction and your target for 2018. So the way it's going to work is dead simple. You're on the taggers target board, you need to have a handicap reduction during 2018 so you need to see some white on the board and some red. White indicates that your handicap has been changed for the better and the red will be the new writing. I'll keep a list of all the players that have had a handicap reduction during 2018 on a taggers target board. Don't be making any of it up because I'll be checking with your handicap secretary if the changes are official. Right now then at the end of 2018 and when I say the end I'm going to be talking September time because we're going to do at the end of the season. At the end of September 2018 we will do a draw out of all the people that have had a handicap reduction and one of you will win a bundle of prizes that I will put together between now and September. The first thing that's going to go into the mix is a £100 voucher to be used on theadbridgegolford.com and that's to buy huddies, caps and all the rest so it goes to support the channel even further so that's a £100 voucher for theadbridgegolford.com. We'll put, I will put a couple of dozen golf balls in and then what will happen is along the way there's different bits and bobs that come in from manufacturers. I will start to put a few bits aside so that we end up with a significant prize pot at the end of it all so believe me it will be well worth winning. Now for me my shipping has improved so much the hole just looks massive right now I just don't seem to be able to miss every time I've got this wedge in my hand but that's confidence for you right? What do you mean that's not the right hole? Flock golf? I've never heard it, what's flock golf? Okay so what I want to talk about next is wedges and in particular wedge fitting. I want to know first question of today's video how many of you have been fitted for your current wedges? Now personally I've never been fitted for wedges but I'm really interested because I read a lot about the bounce grind on wedges and there's such a huge range of options right now with what I don't know whether you're walking to a store you'll read all kind of different numbers, grinds, how do we make sense of it, how do we make sense of exactly what that means and I just wonder how much difference having the right bounce in particular on the sole of that club makes a difference to your performance because it's very much depending on how you play the shots from what sort of lie maybe what sort of course you play whether the lie be a particularly tight lie do you clip the ball off the top do you take divots so for me all of a sudden wedge fitting has become a very interesting part of the bag and it's something I want to pay some particular attention to in the weeks ahead. So slight divot taking there with this wedge that I've got in hand currently and I think for me personally I'd really like to understand the correct bounce for me and my type of swing and the way I deliver a wedge in impact and I hope you do too. So in the weeks ahead the plan is providing it something you want to watch is I'm looking at doing a wedge fitting video I'm trying to get a manufacturer involved and see if we can get an expert onto the channel and have a real close look at how much difference a wedge can make or the right wedge can make for your game. So again comments down below is that a video you'd be interested in and it also likes to know how many of you have already been fitted for wedges that you currently have in the bag. Okay so here's an interesting one for you we did a video in recent weeks discussing the amount of releases from the major brands and in particular we were talking about Callaway because they just released in Europe only actually this one but they've released the XR Speed Driver which was in addition to already the epic range the row range in early part of 2018 and now this XR Speed Driver along with numerous sets of irons that have come out in the past 12 months. One of the things we discussed was the how regular manufacturers release product I think in the main it's kind of like it's really tailor-made and Callaway that come in from the bulk of the criticism for this element of products but what was really interesting I think it was latter part of last week was Callaway released their sales figures for 2017 and it was incredible. I haven't got the numbers to date but I read the article briefly and they've increased quite significantly their overall turnover for that period and it surprised me a bit because it's kind of like the majority of comments within the video that we discussed were all about really critical towards Callaway and manufacturers not towards Callaway towards manufacturers release a lot of product and I think that would have been the general trend it was a high percentage of people would have been on the critical side there was very few people that supported the regular release of product so there's a complete contradiction then when you see that actually a low people or golfers in general are coming at least on to YouTube videos to talk about criticizing this release that actually golfers out there are clearly reflecting in sales of Callaway product that that's not actually the general sense of opinion and in this instance it's the strategy that Callaway have whether it be that they are releasing product too frequently is certainly working in terms of sales and so whether we know that products are being released too soon whether we know that products maybe haven't moved on that significantly in a 12 month period we're still dipping our hands in our pockets and buying these products so it's an interesting one and it just brings up the debate I think you know are you as surprised as me because like I said I was taking a back I think one big thing and one interesting thing it's been a comment that's been made for quite some time now Callaway are really making a real big go at the ball market there is no doubt about that I think they've got to be looked at as the real thorn in the side of tightness right now and again their percentage of ball sales has increased significantly their percentage of ball sales in the marketplace has increased their market shares increased significantly so clearly they're making a big move with the Callaway chrome soft decks and the chrome soft again the new balls released this year and again the cheaper end at the super soft so they're having a real impact I think on ball sales which but clearly they're having a great deal of success and that you can't knock them for that right now their strategy is clearly working for them in terms of sales so interested to know your opinion on that one okay so that is it for today's daily vlog and don't forget let me know about them wedges really interesting to see a do you want to see the video of the kind of explanation about wedges and how you should be looking to get the wedge tailored for your game and also like I said for those of you who have been fitted for your wedges give me some details have you seen the benefit is it a worthwhile process uh other than that well done and congrats to everybody who's made a move on a taggers target board this week don't forget if you've made any change or if you want to get involved now is the time to stick it in the comments below name target for 2018 and current handicap that's all I need that is me done right thanks for watching I will see you very soon


Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Jim Payne from Dynasert. How are you, Jim? I'm great. Thank you, Tracy. Jim, you were fabulous in our investor talk this morning, because as I mentioned to everybody here, you were ESG before anyone even knew what ESG was, and you were at the front of the global carbon credit market. Tell us where you are today and where are we headed. Tracy, I am so excited about the carbon credits. I know you and I have talked about this for years. I have believed for several years that Dynasert was going to be at the forefront of the carbon credit world long before even carbon credit was something that anybody was talking about. The reality is we are so close. We have spent the last little better than two years working with Vero, which is the governing body out of Washington. They are the largest governing body to approve and register carbon credits. They have approved our methodology. They have brought in an independent audit firm that is doing the final audit on our technology. It was very interesting. I had a conversation with the audit firm just the other day. They are working out of the UK, and they've been doing this for years, and they said, you know, we've never been more excited. They said, you know, we look at the methodology and we look at Dynasert. We look at your hydrolytica, which is the telematics. You know, everything is so verifiable. They said, you know, carbon credits, typically, you know, it is the sort of it's that what if, you know, we grow a tree and we're hoping we're going to get this, we do that, we do, you know, we're with with Dynasert. This is 100% verifiable, certified, you know, telematics, you know, where you cannot, there's no human interface where we can't budge this. We can't make this, you know, this is not make believe. This is, this is real.  It's telematics. It's taken right from the computer of an engine. So they're excited. I'm excited. You know, I believe that, you know, we are going to be there within, you know, at some point this year, we have some of the largest companies in North America that has been talking to me for quite some time that all they want, they want the carbon credits. They want the bragging rights. They want to be able to say that they have adopted our technology, you know, for the carbon credits and I'm very excited about that. We've also got municipalities here in Canada and in Europe, and we've got some of the largest power supply companies here in Canada in our own backyard that are, you know, that have ran pilot projects using our technology, love the technology and are going to outfit their entire fleets. They want, they want the bragging rights. They want the carbon credits. They are the one company we were just talking to and they had, they had goals where they were going to meet, you know, over the next three years by adopting our technology, they meet and exceed, you know, their goals, you know, for, for the emission reductions and stuff like that. So there's a lot of excitement there. And yes, I'm very, very excited about it. So also for everybody out there at investorintel.com, for instance, you may not be aware of exactly what Dinosaur does to make revenue. Because, intriguingly, you answered one individual's questions with, we do not need to raise capital, which is something we all savor as people in the market watching companies. Can you explain to our audience what you do to make revenue? Thank you. Well, what we do is we have, we have a product is called our hydrogen. Hydrogen is, it's a patented technology we have actually over, I think it's now 17 or 18 patents on our technology, but it, we produce pure hydrogen and pure oxygen on demand, feed it into an internal combustion engine to enhance the burn. By doing that, we improve the fuel economy. More importantly, we reduce the emissions right at the source, right at the combustion and we reduce the emissions north of 50%, you know, and this is primarily on diesel engines. So we look at these diesel engines, the NOx, which is the NWX, which is the most deadly gas produced by diesel engine. We reduce that up to 88% right at the combustion. And it's because with the introduction of hydrogen as a catalyst, it gives such a more complete and clean burn that, you know, we're taking diesel and making it green. And Jim, thank you for reintroducing Donnerstier, because you've been quiet here for the last during COVID, respectfully, PR wise. I usually tell everybody, look at everything at the moment, at this moment in time and where they're moving forward. But people also like to look at patterns in the past. Can you just explain why COVID impacted you the way that it did and how you're getting everything running again? Absolutely. Tracy, I, you know, I love to look back historically. You look back at, at our stock price. I mean, that's one measure instinct. You look back at our stock price just before COVID. That's when everything was happening. We hit our all-time high. I think it was $1.24 and then COVID hit. And then we, it just plummeted.  We have our plant here where we build our technology. The plant was shut down and we were shut down. Like we were just expanding globally. We have offices in Europe now. We've got dealers around the world.  There was no sales. The only thing we did do, because we were very well capitalized at the time. And I'm so thankful that we went into that position, you know, very well capitalized that we could ride the storm. But we took that time to enhance our facilities here. We looked at, you know, our manufacturing facility. We now have a state-of-the-art, you know, computerized automated facility for building our technology. We enhanced our hydrolytica. Our hydrolytica is the telematics, you know, which measures everything and verifies all this technology where, you know, the end user can, they can download an app. They can download on their computer. And they can see in real time, the fuel savings, you know, the improvements, you know, the reduction in emissions, the CO2E reductions, which converts to carbon credits. They can see all that in a snapshot. If they want to go deeper, they can keep drilling down and they can see where their vehicles are, what's happening, the driving habits. We had one company, they had a truck got in an accident.  And then all of a sudden they said, well, wait a minute, it's got a hydrogen unit. They contacted us. We could give them all the data leading up to the last second of the impact of the vehicle. What happened?  And then all of a sudden they said, well, it's got a hydrogen unit. They contacted us and we located the unit we told them. And within 15 minutes, they found the unit. So there's so many added benefits to it above and beyond, you know, the technology that we have. But really, our technology, it's all about fuel savings. It's all about the emission reductions. We are a carbon emission reduction technology. And on that note, thank you so much for the update, Jim. And for everybody seeking more information on Dinosert, please go to their website or reach out to Jim and his team at Dinosert. Thank you, Jim. Thank you, Tracy.


Talk pages are where people come to leave you messages, so to click on the talk page You click create to open it up and there's no visual editor on this page So what we have to do is just add some content Feel free to leave me a message and now that I've added us to comment on a talk page I need to sign my name because it gets very confusing on talk pages if you don't add a name as to where Who's leaving the message? so When we add a message we click on this little signature button so bold Italic and Signature and timestamp, so I put my cursor at the end of my statement Click that signature and times about button and it creates this little HTML markup squiggle Which I'm going to save with an edit summary of created talk page and then hit save again and Then what that does is that creates the talk page which makes it a blue clickable link, but it also adds a little signature and timestamp Automatically from the squiggle that we added so there's my user page There's the talk page link and there's the the time and date that I added that statement

Rare in Britain, which has strict gun control laws.


How's it going, friends and subscribers? Welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rosel and this is a YouTube channel where you can find content about everything to do with living in Jerusalem and Israel. And today we're sticking with the theme of the day here in Israel, which is politics and the ongoing crisis in Israel surrounding the democratic reform proposals. Today I was scrolling through Twitter when I came across the following tweet from Jacob Cornblue, who's a senior political reporter at The Forward, a prominent Jewish publication in the US. The tweet caught my attention because it referenced an open letter sent by MK Dan Eluz to members of Congress. Dan Eluz is a new member of Israel's parliament who delivered his first speech only last month. He's originally from Quebec in Canada and represents the Likud party. I've met Dan once or twice, which is why the tweet caught my eye. He seems like a nice guy although because of his background he's also been billed as representing the interests of fellow immigrants to Israel like me. Thus the tweet and the letter felt oddly personal as if I was being unwittingly represented. So I thought I'd put together a video with my thoughts about it. This isn't intended as a rant but rather as a heartfelt plea for better and more sensitive communication from those who hold themselves out as representatives of Israel and its citizens because that collective includes me. And personally communications like these are not the way I want to be presented to the rest of the world. The letter references comments made by US President Biden yesterday. Asked what he thought about the ongoing judicial reform protests in Israel, Biden responded. Hopefully the Prime Minister will act in a way that he's going to try to work out some genuinely compromise. In reaction to those comments, Iluz decided to write not only a letter to all members of Congress but to also pen an open letter to the entire world which is now circulating on Twitter. Unfortunately the letter could have used a few proofreads but it's more its contents that I find troubling. Let me state here exactly what my bias is. Unlike Iluz and like the majority of Israeli citizens, I'm broadly against the judicial reform proposals. But more than that I'm concerned by the fact that Israel seems to be losing its limited remaining pockets of international support and alienating key allies like the United States.  The US-Israel relationship is important but diplomacy and tact I believe are always called for, which is why you could say that I have a lot of grievances about both the tone and contents of this communication. Iluz begins his letter to Congress pretty abruptly by stating, I am writing to you following the statements made by President Biden regarding the state of Israel. He then jumps straight into a pretty tough allegation using Israeli politicians time favorite analogy of a red line. He states, at this time I feel that the statement given yesterday crossed a red line in the relationship between our two great countries. Here's my first recommendation for Dan Iluz. Many years ago a guy by the name of Aristotle decided that the ability of a speaker to convince an audience of an argument could be boiled down to three constituent parts. Isas meaning the speaker's ability to convince the audience of his importance and credibility when discussing an issue. Pathos which means roughly the speaker's ability to show an understanding for the sensitivities and needs of the audience. And finally Logos which is the content of the argument itself. This rhetorical triangle has been studied and used by speech writers ever since. It's referenced frequently by Simon Lancaster whose expert guide to speech writing I highly recommend for anybody else who occasionally gets paid to write speeches for people. In fact, every time I write a speech or proof read one I try to keep this three part breakdown in mind. After throwing in the red line allegation in paragraph two, Iluz continues on the attack stating, friends do not act like this towards each other. We do not intervene in each other's actions. The accusations made by President Biden were a blatant intervention in Israel's democratic process. At this point in the open letter I'm seeing a number of glaring problems. Firstly, Iluz, a rookie parliamentarian who delivered his first speech only a month ago, is writing to congressmen and congresswomen and has chosen right off the bat to attack their president, the president of the United States. Relative to the enormous clout of the US, Israel is let's face it kind of a minnow. Iluz's tone is angry and scolding and makes no effort to either establish rapport with the recipients or establish the speaker's credibility. Remember again that three part breakdown which Aristotle famously promoted. Three paragraphs later, the letter continues by urging its recipients to please use all the tools at your disposal to ensure that these types of problematic statements do not happen again. I see here a problem of Logos or the soundness of the argument being advanced. Iluz is requesting that his recipients intervene to effectively muzzle the presidents of the United States. The problem is that this is not an action which the recipients are empowered to take. It also strikes me as urging recipients to interfere in the domestic politics of the US which is exactly what MK Iluz is writing to complain about. The letter lashes out at the red line stuff again before attempting a little bit of politeness and flattery in the closing paragraph. I write to you in the utmost respect and I am more than glad to offer you a thorough briefing on the events taking place in Israel. The problem is that the tone and demands presented in the letter up to now have shown no respect so trying to claw back some good feelings in the last paragraph is like trying to save a sinking ship by filling up a bucket of water and pouring it back into the ocean. Sorry that's the best analogy I could come up with. Israel is currently going through trying and important times. It's not an exaggeration to say that the entire world is watching developments here. I believe that at times like these it's critical to treat our allies with respect. And whether you agree with the grievance that President Biden's remarks constituted interference in Israel's domestic politics I think that the letter sent today by Danny Iluz showed none of that. His words do not represent my views or those of countless others. Thanks for hearing me out and if you want to get more videos about Israel and Jerusalem which will occasionally touch on politics and my hot takes about it consider liking this video and subscribing. Until next time.


Welcome to Access a Trader, the number one community for those who are committed to taking control of their trading in order to achieve success, profitability, and longevity. Thank you for joining us. Here's Dan Shapiro to help you find your edge, master your process, and own your future. Hey guys, good evening everybody. Welcome to another edition of the Access a Trader dot com that we wrap up show. Hope everybody is doing well. Hope everybody's doing well. Just crazy Marcus. It's the same thing every single day. It almost feels like there is kind of a rocket launcher. Once one of these stocks takes off and confirms macro, these stocks really, really take off. And as much as we sit here every single day, and again, anybody's been trading for a very, very long time. All these headlines we're starting to see now, especially in the last three, four days, that would really suggest that, you know what? Let's be a little more cautious. You don't need to go really, really aggressive. But the more headlines that pop up, the market continues to really embrace these bad headlines. Again, you see now, for the last three, four days, a pretty good now. You know, it's not even, it started out a little small, right? But you're starting to get a little pretty good rebound now in COVID cases, not only just in the US, but you're seeing, I think they had like 70, whether it was a 5,000 to 7,500 cases in Saudi Arabia overnight. Please double check those numbers. That's right. There's so much data going on throughout the day. But yeah, something like that, like 4,000 or 5,000, 7,000 cases. So we're starting to see that in Florida, in Texas. But again, no matter what happens, there's two things that are still very, very consistent. Number one, the Fed is the backstop. I think that's the most important part, whether you agree with it or you don't agree with it. Again, at the end of the game, I'm not going to go back into this whole stop blaming things. It's up to you. But it's really up to you. You've got to take really self-examination to realize that, again, there's nobody's fault of what the market is doing. The market is just doing what the market does. Again, its sole purpose is to separate you from your money. So it really doesn't have to give you a reason why the market is doing what it does. So again, take self-responsibility for your actions every single day. But again, if you have that evidence in front of you, and we started talking about in the last couple of days, again, until the market really stops behaving on every single headline of the Fed, the market is going to continue to do what it's doing. And again, case in point, it's amazing that when you see a macro level breakout, no matter what the market does, these stocks have just gone absolutely nuts. So for example, Tesla, the big pivot was that 835 level. Remember that 835, the stock is in orbit, literally about one, two days away from going absolutely nuts. Amazon from that 2550 level, right? 2550, again, is going absolutely nuts. SHOP, as soon as it closed over 800, hasn't had a downtick, right? It had that whole break. It took out the 800 level and literally did not have a downtick since then. And this is kind of what we're seeing in the market now over and over. And today's case in point was Roku, right?  And again, it's the same case in point. They take out a major range. They have a very big move. They have a consolidation move. And the next thing you know, they go back at it again. So until this theme stops happening, stops working, again, you have to continue to ride this train. Now again, I say this every single day. At any moment, they could pull the plug. Eventually, these headlines, right, will make the market at least pause and say, well, wait a minute, we get the Fed is backstopping. We get the momentum train in the market. But eventually, again, the materialistic news kind of weighs down the hype, weighs down the quote unquote Robinhood crowd. And next thing you know, you have a market that's backtesting. Again, the last thing we want to do is put ourselves in a position that we have the blinders on and say every single day, it doesn't matter what happens. No matter what happens, these stocks will do what they have to do. That's just not simply the truth. And you're starting seeing that every single day with down the last two, three days, the market's kind of moving on up very, very aggressively and then slowly but surely in the afternoon it starts rolling over. Now again, does that mean anything? Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't. But again, you can't be naive to think at no given time the news does not matter. Again, this COVID thing is a big deal. And New York I think is set for, I think, phase two within the next week or so. And if the numbers come out very, very aggressively, if there's a notable uptick considering nobody is really out of the house, then there's a very, very good chance when a major city comes out with a huge uptick, whether it's 20, 30, 40,000 people overnight, the market's going to feel it. Don't think it's not. So again, no disrespect to like Arizona or Oklahoma or just one of these other states. But if in New York City, if Chicago, if in LA and LA got a pretty dramatic uptick in their COVID cases, something eventually has to give. So please be careful. Eventually again, this gravy train is going to run out. You know, the breakout that worked yesterday and the day before and a month ago, maybe not work out tomorrow. So again, it's okay to be aggressive, continue to be aggressive, but please have one eye on reality and just realize at any point it can just absolutely stop. And these are just the facts.  All you need to do is look back to last Wednesday, right? We talked about a blow off top of the top of the range. And the next day the market went down 1800 points. So again, nobody's saying technically we're in a bad place. We're actually a great place. And the Nasdaq is just phenomenal. Okay, we're literally a couple of days away from retesting again those 52 all time highs.  We talked about this last week. We had that incredible pull, the 1800 pull, several of the 7% move on the Dow lower that day followed by the next day gap open pull again. So at any point this can happen again, it's much more important to be safe than sorry. Obviously have a game plan. Obviously have an opinion going into the next trading session. But again, let that opinion play out. And if you feel any type of trouble, any type of stalling out in what you think is about to happen, just cut yourself off again. It's okay to have a losing trade. It's okay to have a losing day. Don't give back your month. Do not give back your two months.  It just doesn't work that way. So it's very, very important to understand that. And the most amazing part is, you know, this is where I try to warn every single day, right? We have a very, very aggressive game plan every single day. We understand that these names are super aggressive right now. I mean, this is like literally every single day, they kind of rotate into aggression. A lot of times you see a stock come out in news or get an upgrade and really start, you know, really start expanding that zone. So we understand this. Okay, again, today was a very, very aggressive day.  Again, it's more important to be safe than sorry than to sit there and hope that something happens that you have no control of. So again, very, very incredibly aggressive day today. You know, some couple of names I was a little bit disappointed on, but overall a very, very aggressive session. Roku was very, very good. Although I caught Alibaba, I thought it was going to be more and I was a little bit disappointed on Alibaba. I really thought it was going to be a bigger move considering the option flow, considering, you know, how many days they got rejected off the same area. I was a little disappointed. But again, this is why we always talk about take money on the way up, use break even as you stop because again, there is no guarantee. So let's talk about it. So the day started out, these were the initial pivots and I really liked the upside obviously on caution. But again, I said, look, there's a couple of names that I do like to the downside. If they do build below, they can drop. The first one was Boeing and obviously, Boeing had a really, really strong session today to the upside, but I was watching this 186 level and this is an area kind of going forward. Now we should really watch. If you see this area here, you see how Boeing keeps on holding, right? This rising, rising 60 minutes support, it keeps on holding here in this 186. This candle's low is 186.50. Today's low is 186.07. So this is the area that I was watching today. Obviously, I never got down there, but this is the area going forward, this 186 area. If it does confirm eventually, it could get hit. I know a lot of you guys caught this upside pivot, which I did not trade, but that's the area that I'm watching on Netflix. Again, not the biggest move, but again, Netflix continues to be very, very strong. We continue to see very, very good aggressive option flow in the name. Last couple of days, we saw the 460s, the 465s, the 470s. More important, they're buying these things on the dip. Again, not a big move here. 451 needs to build. Not a big move at all today. First move today, 451. Here's a 451. It traded up like $1.70. It wasn't a big move, and then it really, really turned around and went lower. So again, listen, a pivot is a pivot is a pivot. Again, you don't know if you're going to make $1 or $0.30, $0.80, but the point is again, guys, this is why we say, take cash flow on the way up, pay yourself for your time, and at worst case, with your balance, use break even, because again, if you don't, bad things can really, really happen. So not a big move on Netflix. So here's obviously one of the best movers of the day here. Tesla 107.108. Obviously 107.108, but I'm just going to use short numbers here. 107.108 needs to build. I thought there was a shot that he gets to 120. Obviously 120 or 1020 was the high from the previous channel, right? Here is the previous channel here, 120. Here is the 107, right? The 107 area, and it exploded. It exploded when right to this double top here to 1020. So put up a $13 candle, very, very aggressively here at the open. Again, good jobs for you guys, not only taking the pivot, but again, understanding where, if it's stalled out, you need it to get the hell out of dodge. And obviously, again, it's very, very important to sell stocks technically than to buy stocks emotionally. It's a very, very important point. Unfortunately, a lot of traders don't understand, especially in their early stages, but again, it's a very, very expensive lesson not to understand. So this again, 1020.1020 will be a big, big area moving forward. Again, you're still seeing really big money flow on Tesla on the 1050s. These are all weeklies, 1050s, 1100s, 1120s. I even saw an 1150. So there's still betting. Maybe it runs into Friday. Again, tomorrow is Friday and expiration. Maybe Tesla wakes up, so big, big pivot there. Spotify went nuts. 207 needs to build. Spotify had some good option flow yesterday into the close. The 210s and this thing just went nuts. So here is the 207, pre-market 207. It took that out and just went nuts. Absolutely went nuts. Went as high as the 230, so Spotify went just absolutely nuts. I was disappointed in Boba. So I get along Boba. The 225 was very important here. A little disappointed. So 225 was a big area here. As you can see here, it got rejected here three times. 225, 225, 225. So it breaks 225 and it goes to 26. And you start seeing, obviously it takes some off on the way up. And I always use break even as my stop. But what was disappointing about this setup here, the fact that it failed, number one, we saw a buyer come in for the 230 weekly call. So you figure at 225, 230, there's a shot. There's always a shot to measure potential. And again, the reason why they came to the measure potential of 230, that is the upper Bollinger band. So you started seeing big option flow coming in, big buyers coming in on the weeklies. And you started seeing really aggressive bids, right? 205, 50s, 205, 60s. And you say to yourself, well, here it goes. I mean, any second it's going to go. Any second it's going to go and it didn't go.  And then the stock sells off $2 and it didn't recover. So it was very, very weird. They not only did you have the order flow, you had the option order flow. You had really, really aggressive equity flow. Buyers following it up. You had a three day channel that it finally reclaimed and it didn't work. So again, let your worst trade in the world be one that you make money on. So that's fine. Deckers, a nice move on Deckers. Here are the levels here pre-market. 202.01 big areas needs to build and reclaim. Deckers got upgraded today with a street high 230. So here is the 200, right? Here's the 200. Here's the 201. Stock went as high as the 205 and change. Roku, definitely the trade of the day. Roku 119.30, 119.50 needs to build. And here is the, you know, if you guys remember on Friday, right? It was a Monday. Hell, I don't remember what the day was. You saw these really big aggressive call buyers coming in, right? And that's when Roku went from 16 to 22, okay? And it started building pre-market and there was a channel here that 1930, 1950. And I said, look, I'm very curious if call buyers come in. This thing could really start exploding. And here was, you know, here was Roku, definitely the move of the day. Here was the Roku channel, right? So here was the night, here, 119.30, right? 119.30. And it broke that 119.30 and started to build. And when I tell you there was panic buyers in the stock. There were panic buyers in the stock. We saw, we saw 125s, right? This is when the stock was at 120. We saw 125s, 130s, 140s, 145, 150 weeklys. For next week, we saw 150s, 170s. And then we saw the July, okay? Then we saw the July $240 calls being traded. And there's a lot of open interest in that as well. So, you know, when somebody turns around and says somebody knows something, hell, that's what it looks like. Somebody knows something. If there is something to be known about, nobody's really hiding it. The option market is telling you, there's people making some really, really aggressive bets. And again, I know a lot of you guys did very, very well. You know, I caught a decent amount of this thing as well. So, you know, it is what it is, man. It's a beautiful trade. Great job on Roku. Beyond never got to the 154 support. That obviously is the big number here. ZS, beautiful trade. Beautiful, beautiful trade. Congratulations to you guys who caught this thing. 109.50, 110 needs to build. ZS went nuts, okay? ZS went nuts. Here is the 109.50, 110. And the first candle went to 114. It went to as high as the 115 in change. So, good job there. Dada, you know, put up a 70 cent move. Not a big move. It went from 20 to 30 to 23. Chewie, I forgot all about Chewie today. Did it do anything? 50? Did it get to 50? Never got to 50. Never got to 50. And, yes, sell on the way. Nice spike. Ali Baba again. It looked great, right? Thumbs up. You know, it looked great. It was up a dollar. It looked really good. Okay. Came back in. Monsters, ZS, there's a rocket. Tesla again. 1020 is the next monster pivot. You know, got rejected two times. Again, that's the number going forward. Decker's new highs. I said Netflix in case it comes back in. Spot again, absolute monster. So, the pivots were there. Like I said, 123.50 next supply. So, it hits supply the 50 day moving average. And then I said, look, any close over 123.70 is macro big. I said there's a shot. It goes to 128. And that's it. Look at it. 128. Amazing move. So, again, this is one to definitely watch in the next couple of days for weakness to try to reenter on a dip. So, again, going into tomorrow, guys, again, cautiously optimistic every single day. There's definitely some good value for tomorrow's session. If you are joining us tomorrow via the live webinar, please get there 9 a.m. Eastern time.  So, guys, have a great night, everybody.

continue with the basis sets today. So, first as we said in the last class yesterday that we have to choose first the basis that we want to choose for the atomic orbiters. So, one of the basis that is very common is valence only basis which essentially means for the first row atoms like carbon we have 1s, 2s and 2p, for the hydrogen it is just 1s. So, that is called the valence only basis and these are typically slater orbitals alright which will be expanded in terms of Gaussian. So, we will that is a general philosophy for all atomic orbitals. So, first we will only describe the atomic orbital set then we said valence double zeta please note that when you say valence only basis we are still including carbon 1s because core cannot be completely neglected what I mean by valence only is that polarization function would not be there we can simply call it valence basis. So, that is basically it means that up to valence it will be there. So, then you have a valence double zeta which means carbon would have just 1s and the actual valence 2s, 2p will be doubled as 2s prime, 2p prime. So, 2s 2p, 2s prime, 2p prime and for hydrogen this will be also 1s, 1s prime because hydrogen 1s itself is valence. So, I am first describing what are the atomic orbitals the slater type of functions slater functions what are the slater functions that are there. So, this will be the hydrogen 1s, 1s prime and up to this point we said we further said however we do not use any slater orbitals each slater function is expanded as a linear combination of Gaussian functions and we decide to call this primitive Gaussian.  So, then it means that is slater function. So, I have a slater function of s type which would be now on centered A which would be now written as a linear combination of various Gaussians. So, Pgf which are characterized by the exponent alpha which I just call alpha i. So, what is required is of course going to be s type that is for clear that is s type Gaussian because I am expanding s type atomic orbitals. So, what we require in our basis expansion is to know for each slater function let us say l number of Gaussians. So, what is the length of the Gaussian and what are these coefficients and the exponent as we said that each slater cannot be written as one primitive Gaussian. So, it has to be a linear combination of primitive Gaussian. The two important difference between slater and primitive Gaussians we highlighted that at r equal to 0 its derivative is 0 whereas in the case of the slater it is non-zero. So, that behavior is different at r equal to infinity these decays much more rapidly than this later because of the fact that you have a square. I hope all of you realize why at r equal to 0 it is 0 if you take a derivative of r square r will come out and r will make it 0 whereas in the case of just exponential minus r it will not become 0 it will remain non-zero. So, I think that is a very simple algebra that you should be able to do I just told these two differences and because of these two differences as well as the differences in the intermediate region s slater cannot be mapped to one primitive. So, it has to be mapped to a combination of primitive and this is usually preset. This combination is usually preset from an atomic calculation, from an earlier atomic calculation. So, this is something these coefficients are not something which are part of the SCF these are known using this we actually calculate the atomic orbitals, atomic orbital integrals for the valence only. So, before I go forward to further basis where I include more than valence let us spend some time and look at two particular basis sets which are of use double zeta valence and this is actually a name given by Dunning and Huzinaga Dunning. Another is 6, 3, 1g, 4, 3, 1g type 3, 2, 1g etc type which are which are the popl's basis. So, I will just try to explain these two examples of course there may be many, many basis sets just to tell you what this means. So, first the Huzinaga Dunning basis in the Huzinaga Dunning basis the core remains single zeta. So, that means core is not expanded core remains as one function of course core will be expanded in terms of primitive Gaussians, but core is not expanded in terms of 2. So, what will happen is that you have an expansion for 1s function. So, you have an expansion of 1s function in terms of pgs. So, we will worry about how many functions and all that expansion in terms of pgs. So, some number will be expanded and then you have 2s, 2s prime, 2p, 2p prime these are expanded again in terms of primitive Gaussians with some exponent, some exponent and some coefficients. Usually what is done is that these exponents are kept same for both s and p, but not for the prime and unprime there that is different, but whatever you use for 2s will be same for 2p, 2s prime will be same for 2p prime. So, one of the basis that was very commonly used by Huzinaga Dunning was called 9s 5p stroke 3s 2p for example. I will explain this why this is double zeta valence. The first in the bracket are number of primitive Gaussians which are used. So, total number of primitive Gaussians used are 9s type 5p type. From this 9s type and 5p type we use, we construct a contraction this is called the contraction. So, these are often these are also called contracted Gaussian functions cgf just like these are called pgf. So, now actually we do not work with later function we work with contracted Gaussian. So, we contract this 9s type to 3s type functions and 5p type to 2p type. What are those 3s type functions that is very clear you have 1s, 2s, 2s prime and these are 2p, 2p prime. Please note that these 3 and 2 are not the principal quantum numbers these are just the total number. So, these are 3 total number of s types this is total number of p type we judge that in this case it happens to be 2p, 2p prime. So, do not confuse and you have a total number of pgf which are 9 5. So, out of the 9s type few of them will be used for 1s and a few for 2s, few for 2s prime. So, typically what is used is for 1s we use 6 core a 6 primitive Gaussian out of the 9 for 2s we use 3, one of them become common and 2s prime is usually uncontracted. So, 1 so 3pgf this is 1pgf. So, it appears that 6 plus 3 plus 1, 10 you do not have 10 here but one of them is actually common Gaussian and each for each of these expansion you have coefficients those are actually least that is given to you it is not important but just to remember this prime remains uncontracted this is actually called uncontracted because I am using only one primitive. Now, you may argue with this but then this is only an additional basis to 2s, 2s prime. So, it does not matter one is sufficient because actual 2s is taking care. So, it has 3 number of 2s. So, similarly you have p functions which are usually make 4 and 2p prime they make 1 this was usual Huzinaga Dunning convention. So, this is just one typical basis. So, 5p is contracted 4 plus 1 5. So, this is a typical basis that I am just giving you but you can have n number of basis. In fact, there are further basis in which this can be 13s, this can be 7p contracted to 3s 2p only. So, that means for each of them I am using more number of primitives and always more the merrier please understand more here, more here everywhere more is better in basis set. So, I can keep on expanding my basis set question is that if you have more number somewhere rather computational time will increase. So, that is where you have to play the balancing game. So, this is typically the Huzinaga Dunning basis set. I will explain now the Poples basis set because this is more commonly used today. In fact, it is interesting that the Huzinaga Dunning basis set is almost outdated today. Most people use Poples basis set after the Gaussian has come. So, that is of course marketing because Poples started the Gaussian. So, Poples of course does not use Huzinaga Dunning basis set in Gaussian. So, eventually people have forgotten Huzinaga Dunning basis. That is unfortunate. I may also say that the Huzinaga gave the primitive Gaussian coefficients and Dunning gave the contractions. That is Dunning gave these coefficients, Huzinaga devised this alpha i's. What are the primitive Gaussian? So, that is their contribution, Huzinaga and Dunning. But it is almost forgotten today. Everybody uses the 631g, 431g etc. So, I will now come to explain these. These are actually much easier. So, let us say I start with 631g which is a very common basis set. So, 631g essentially means this dash is very important. This dash separates core from the balance. So, this 6 is the number of primitive Gaussians used to expand 1s. These three are the number of primitive Gaussian that is used to expand 2s and this is uncontracted for 2s. So, the 631 are actually not the number of atomic orbitals. They are the number of primitive Gaussians for each atomic orbital. So, when I write 631g, first you have to understand that is this. So, this is basically double sheet of balance of Huzinaga and Dunning. Coefficients are different, exponents are different. That is all the difference. So, number of orbitals, number of atomic orbitals used in this basis set and Huzinaga and Dunning basis set is identical. Number of atomic orbitals, that is number of contracted Gaussians which is used. Finally, these later function, they are identical. That number is 1s, 2s, 2s prime, 2p, 2p prime. So, 631g essentially says this and then for 2p, 2p prime, we use exactly the same contract, same exponents 3 and 1. So, just like the Huzinaga and Dunning basis, Huzinaga Dunning has also used similar those 5p, 4 and 1. That is a little different and their exponents are little bit different from the s. Here, whatever they are using for s type, the same exponents they use for p type. So, this is very typical of the Popol's contraction. The exponents are actually identical here, same exponent they share. Only the contraction coefficients will be different. So, this is the Popol's basis set. So, you can see that it is very pretty much the same. So, you have 1s later function which is expanded in terms of 6p, pgf and then your 2s and 2s prime are expanded in 3 and 1. So, it is pretty much what the Huzinaga and Dunning did, values are little bit different and the same goes for 2p and 2p prime. What is interesting in Popol's basis is that they share the common exponents. That is a very special feature which is not there in Huzinaga Dunning and in fact, 3 and 1. Huzinaga Dunning, they are not even used 3 and 1, they used 4 and 1, but that is in a minor difference, 3 and 4 are minor differences. So, this is basically 631g. If you now take another basis set, so for example, 431g, now you can yourself tell what is 431g. What is 431g now? Same number except the 1s is 4, now no difference. Yeah, first row, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, yeah, first row atoms. So, it is exactly the same, yeah, 4. So, if I now use 321g, it is exactly the same. So, you will then have 3, this will be 2, this will be 2. That is it, but as long as I am using of before dash 1 entry, after dash 2 entries, it means it is this basis. That is important. Of course, if I do for hydrogen, I should also tell for the hydrogen, then this is immaterial. You just look at 1s, 1s prime, both are valid. So, you use accordingly 631g, 431g. How many contractions are there for hydrogen 1s? This is no longer important. That is all. So, if you look at these basis sets, they are pretty much same Dunning and Huzinaga and Popol, but yeah, exponents are different, total number may be different and you can keep changing. Of course, these numbers can be made as big as possible. 631g is typically good, but people use more number, as I said, more the merrier. So, the point that we are trying to say that these 6 or 321 has nothing to do with the number of contracted functions. The number of contracted functions are decided by number of entries. So, these are only the number of contractions used for contracted function and this is preset from an atomic calculation. So, they do not really come in the heart reform. So, initial calculation, of course, becomes expensive. The calculation of the 1 and 2 electron integrals become more expensive and I will come to that because you have to expand that in terms of primitive Gaussian, eventually to calculate as I discussed in the last class, only once you have to do, but once you have done that, the rest of the heart reform calculation does not depend on these numbers per say 321, but what it depends is the number of entries because they define my number of atomic orbitals, contracted atomic orbitals which become my basis set M. That capital M that I was talking will be decided by this number. So, let us look at that number now. Either Huzinaga Dunning double zeta valence or the Popol's basis, the number is same quite clearly because each of them uses 1s, 2s, 2s prime, 2p, 2p prime. So, number is actually same. So, your total number M in SCF calculation remains the same except the quality of the integrals will be different because the quality of integral will depend on expansion in terms of Gaussians. So, can you calculate the number? Let us say I am doing a calculation of methane. What will be the total number of atomic orbitals, contracted atomic orbitals which will generate total number of molecular orbitals? Let us say there is no linear dependence. So, your total number of MOs that will be generated, your Fock matrix, M by M, Fock matrix. What is that M? Can you tell me now? How do you calculate? Remember, P is 3-fold degenerate. So, whatever we are doing for P, I should also tell you we do exactly same for Px, Py, Pz. So, now you tell me what is the number? 9. 9. Total methane. I have carbon, I have hydrogen. No, what is the total number of contracted Gaussians? What is the total number for this basis here? This basis is same as this basis or this is double zeta valence or who is in Nagar Dhani because number of contracted functions are identical. 1s, 2s, 2s prime, 2p, 2p prime. Hydrogen, 1s, 1s prime. So, who said 17? You are right. You have 1, 2, 3, 6, 9. 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. What is so difficult about it? You have 4 hydrogen, each of them has 2 orbitals. So, 8, 8 already. For carbon, you have 3 plus 6, 9. So, if you do a calculation of methane, and this is very important, in double zeta valence of who is in Nagar Dhani, you will get total 17 atomic orbitals. Your SCF will be 17 by 17. Your number of molecular orbitals will be 17, out of which, of course, these are special orbitals. Remember, so you have actually 34 spin orbitals, out of which actually five of them will be used for occupied orbitals, and the rest of the 12 will remain unoccupied. So, just want to explain to you because we did that Focke matrix, Fc equal to Sce etc. So, you get that many eigenvalues, eigenvectors. So, you get so many coefficients, sets of coefficients. The set of coefficients that you will get will be equivalent to 17 by 17 matrix. So, C will be 17 by 17 matrix. You will get 17 MOs, out of which only five will be used because this is a closed shell system. Five will be used for Hartree form. The rest of the 12 will be unoccupied. So, the lowest energy among them unoccupied will be called Lumo. The highest of the occupied will be called Homo. So, if you do double zeta valence calculation with methane, and if you do not get 17 orbitals, there is some problem with input. You should be able to find out something that you should go back and check what happened. Maybe there is a linear dependence, something was removed as I told you. That could happen and reducing the number, but it cannot increase anyway. Now, if you do 321 g calculation for methane, what is the total number of molecular orbitals that you get? I am just saying what is the total number of MOs you will get, so that there is no confusion. That must be that m. If you do 321 g, good, very good. I just wanted to test it. If you do 431 g, it is same. 631 g, it is same. Many people get confused because these numbers are increasing 3, 4, 6, but it is same because you are still describing only this many number of atomic orbitals. What is happening is that the quality of the atomic orbitals in terms of the primitive Gaussian is changing. That is the only thing that is changing. So, when I go from 431 g to 631 g, the valence anywhere remains same. Only the 1s function is getting better because for the 1s function, now I have used 6 instead of 4. So, obviously 1s function will be better than the 431 g 1s function. That is all that is happening. So, I have a better quality 1s function, but the number is same. Quality is determined by number of primitive Gaussian because I am anyway not using slater. So, everything is an approximation. So, how good is this slater or what I call contracted Gaussian? That depends on the number L and also details of Di and alpha i, assuming that they are almost similar. This will be certainly better than this and because the core is better, you should also expect Hartree-Fock results to be different. Although your basis is same, do not expect the Hartree-Fock results to be same because the integrals will be different. The integrals involving the core orbital will be different because the core is different and hence the results will be different and actually results will be better here. By the variation theorem, I am always more the better. So, it will be lower, lower energy will be lower and you can do that calculation and see. Although it is a very minor difference, only the 1s core carbon is changing, nothing else is changing. So, the difference will be very, very minor in very few last few digits will change. 3 to 1g will be significantly worse because your valence, not only core is 3, your valence is also got worse. One of the valence instead of 3, you are using 2 orbiters. So, it will get worse but total dimension of the problem will be same. So, there are two different things. So, total number of MOs that I will get will be that will be determined by the dimension of the Fock matrix. Core function usually requires, one of the reason is that we are only using one core orbiter. So, that is why we try to do that as good as possible. So, that is why we usually require a larger number of cores. We do not have a double zeta. In fact, I did not tell you, Huzinaga and Danin when they first started, they actually said only double zeta, just d z. So, just d z if you do, that is not d z v. That means core is also expanded. 1s, 1s, 1s. If you do that for the methane calculation, you now have 18 orbiters. If somebody has a old program run d z v and d z, you will see suddenly one more MO has occurred. So, just because that carbon is also expanded, that was original Huzinaga, Danin, those who read earlier papers. In fact, when we used to do calculation, it was double zeta. Double zeta valence I learned much later and that is actually to be consistent with the popol. Popol was always using double zeta valence because for popol to use double zeta, he has to have two more entries here, two entries here because this is a separator between core and valence. So, this is the number of valence. This is the number of cores. So, you have to have different two entries. So, let us say the 6 is split into 5 1, then 5 1 dash 3 1 g. Popol never invented this basis set. If you have such a basis set, it would mean core is also double zeta, but popol never invented this basis set. So, popol never used double zeta actually. Popol always used double zeta valence and then somewhere down the line, Huzinaga Danin double zeta was also forgotten. People used Huzinaga Danin double zeta valence because popol showed actually, you will have one extra atomic orbital and it really does not help the results and there are a lot of studies which are made to show that for the core 1 is sufficient and then you need more number of contractions. You do it only once. So, that is why all these are punched to just 6 instead of splitting them as 5 and 1. So, there are lots of literature and basis set and they are all trial and error. Many of them have come out of intuition. So, many say that the basis set is more of an art than science. It is probably little bit of dramatic statement, but it is probably true that it is more of an art than science because you just do trial and error. You have some intuition and there is lots of literature. So, I will not go into those details, but let me now say how do you calculate the integrals before I go over to the other basis sets, some of the other basis sets which are also there. So, how do you calculate the integrals? So, for example, I take a simple integrals of mu H nu which is a one electron integral or mu nu. So, each of these are now contracted gaussian. So, they will be expanded depending on 1s, 2s, 2s prime, 2p, 2p prime whatever, it will be expanded. So, let us say mu is expanded in terms of i equal to 1 to k, some d mu i, then I have a gaussian function, I call it just mu i H and then mu is expanded similarly as sum over j equal to let us say 1 to l dj nu and gaussian function nu j, is it clear? This is primitive gaussian pgf. So, just as I used to do normal basis set expansion, I am expanded mu in terms of di mu pgf mu i. So, this just shows that it is a mu h basis, i is the number of the pgf k number, nu has l number, everything can be different. So, you have to keep track dj nu pgf nu g and of course, so the basic integration that you have to do is this. This is the basic integration that you have to do with the primitive gaussians and fortunately these integrals can even be calculated in an analytic manner, there are lot of not numerical. So, analytic integrations are possible with the primitive gaussian function and then all you do is to multiply with these coefficients which are now known. Remember, these are already preset from an atomic calculation. So, they do not come in the hard reform. I had given you a step, calculate 1 and 2 electron integrals. So, it will only come there because these numbers are already known. So, you just calculate this. Similarly, I do mu nu lambda sigma 1 by r 1 to lambda sigma. So, you will have now four summations i j k l. So, this can be i equal to 1 to k 1, j equal to 1 to k 2, l equal to a k equal to 1 to k 3, l equal to 1 to k 4.  So, it is a routine thing. I will just keep track of your symbol. That is all. I mean, it is very simple. So, all you need to do is to evaluate this integral. Again, I am writing everything in Dirac notation. You can convert it into a Boolean notation. That is not important. So, here the real simplification is here as I explained to you because now there are gaussians. So, they can be actually written in terms of only two gaussians because this p g f i mu and p g f k lambda can be combined 1 into 1. They can be combined into one gaussian on a different center and here again this and this can be combined into another center. Of course, they have centers also now. So, you have to keep track which mu. So, mu has the center a, b, c, but you can do that calculation. It is not very difficult. So, the real advantage is in the calculation of this integral and because of that the gaussians are actually done. So, this is a complicated thing that is actually done. It is not so simple to calculate a two electron integral, but these are evaluated after this simplification of two gaussians being converted to one gaussian. They can be now evaluated completely analytically. So, there are function formulas. So, these formulas are directly programmed which is very fast. So, you do all analytic integrations. So, people have done this integration is very long thing, but for computer programmer you do not care. You take the last line equal to final line. You just program that. That is the formula programming. So, that is very quick. So, please this is a lot of literature that is done. In fact, there are papers by I think SACs, somebody called SACs in general of mathematical physics. Lots of paper in the 1960s I think when the gaussians were coming up. JMP general of mathematical physics. So, those who are mathematically oriented can read those papers. Here is many papers. How to evaluate these integrals? Now, long papers. So, each of them may be 4, 5, S type, P type, D type all different depending on that because obviously if it is P type, remember primitive gaussian function will be different. It will not be just exponential minus alpha because there will be r to the power something. P type has also x, y, z. So, r to the power 1 depending on what is the quantum number. So, they are actually done for everything and very, very long papers. A lot of mathematics you know I tried to read through once. I found that probably is not useful to read through because I mean they have done it. So, everybody trust their mathematics is right. What is important is the final formula for the programmer and they just take the final formula, but those of you are actually interested in integral evaluation in terms of gaussian can go back. All the literature is available and read those papers. We will go forward. This is not the only basis set that you can use. As I said, we have so once you understand the integral evaluation in terms of primitive gaussians.


lately people have started wondering when is Plasma 6 getting released and well how do we even know there's a Plasma 6 coming and then to that relies in Qt. Now Qt is the framework that Qt uses to actually draw anything on the screen and much more and usually when Qt announces a new version well it's the right moment for Qt Plasma and Qt in general to step up and maybe do a new version of the frameworks a new major version so not the small ones so instead of keeping Qt Plasma 5 for the eternity or I don't know even frameworks frameworks are currently 5.92 93 and counting and instead of continuing to do that when Qt says we're going to do Qt 6 all Qt says okay then we're going to do Qt framework 6 and Qt Plasma 6 and in there we can do a bit more things so the biggest one of course is to actually start using Qt 6 so Qt will start using Qt 6 in Qt Plasma 6 Qt framework 6 and so on the 6 release and of course you can actually already use Qt 6 in stuff and nothing stops you absolutely and some developers are actually like trying out apps with Qt 6 but there's also other stuff going on let's take the Qt frameworks what are those so the frameworks are a code that's well let's say behind the scenes makes Qt work it's a 83 add-on libraries of various like I don't know some manages time like days events stuff like that could be anything and right now they're in version 5.22 23 as I've said and is people are working on KD framework 6 since 2019 when Lars presented the plans for Qt 6 so Qt 6 was announced in 2019 October 2019 and that's when the Qt frameworks work actually began so there's planning the transition and the idea that is that this is completely behind the scenes for users you shouldn't notice this but all of the application that are currently using Qt from frameworks well 6 is a good time to actually break the promises of the API so if you had a certain behavior in Qt framework 6 that we actually wanted to change well we couldn't because apps were relying on it even third party ones Qt framework 6 is a major release and that means that we can actually break promises in the API and clean stuff up which is also what's happening in Qt Plasma 6 let me make you an example so you know plasmoids in your panel when they use a plasmoid API now the plasmoid API over time has got some properties that after a bit of time we realized that they weren't as good as we thought my bad on a particular one I introduced at least one of those so Qt Plasma 6 is the perfect opportunity to actually get rid of those because apps are not relying on it anymore because a new major version means that you actually have to do work to port your application and of course uh application or plasmoid of course that means that there is a bit of porting needed for those who work on Qt frameworks or I don't know plasmoids API or any API that's being ported to 6 and the idea is to make sure that it's as little work as possible so that everything that worked before works even in Qt 6 without too much hassle so there's also joined the Qt frameworks 6 print and I want to show you that this was March 27 28 2021 which is almost a year ago so when people ask when is Plasma 6 coming up coming out sorry well it's been in the works in Qt frameworks at least for more than a year a year and some months at this point so yeah this is the Plasma 6 work board with this very nice not official 6 so this is the backlog the things that well it's the default so all the stuff really goes here it's just one task here one task here 85 years so yeah and I'll make you an example I think this is rather representative all these tasks are like this port Plasma desktop applets window list from Plasma components 2 so Plasma components 2 was a older way of actually displaying Plasma things now there's Plasma components 3 and KD Plasma 6 should use Plasma components 3 and so there are lots and lots of tasks saying we need to port away from Plasma components 2 then what else do we have Plasma plugin loader cleanup so this is the best time as well to do cleanups of behind the scenes code what else we get kill run associate applications this is again a feature that KD Plasma had it's like behind the scene feature but in order to get rid of it since people are relying on it well we need Plasma 6 and you got the idea nothing of this list is actually exciting for any user and the reason for that which is my reply to what we expect from KD Plasma 6 is that KD Plasma 6 is not meant to be a revolution with lots of new features and awesome stuff and okay people are working on KD Plasma 6 already for months years even at least one and the idea is that it's a lot of behind the scenes work and you the user maybe there will be new features but the main idea that is that everything should keep working so Plasma like 4 to 5 if I remember correctly I was in KD back then but there were some issues in that it was buggy maybe the first the Plasma 5 release and that's something that KD doesn't really want to happen again so Plasma 6 should be a bug free release as bug free as KD Plasma can get obviously there are bugs there will be bugs but hopefully no new bugs or not too many so all the people all the things that people are saying indeed in this discussion of 186 comments well they're not like bad things or things that will never happen but these are not things that should happen on a major release or necessarily happen on a major release like full Wayland support is something KD was working on for years and one day it will be ready and maybe that day will be for coincidence the same day of Plasma 6 but it is not maybe it will be Plasma 5 dot I don't know what is it 26 maybe and if it's ready for Plasma 5 dot 26 why wait for 6 some kind of tablet mode again this is something that could happen at any time Plasma 6 means nothing for this thing a corner bug fix come on seriously and at this point I'm so annoyed still seeing this better programming thinking options well ironically this could be in Plasma 6 because there's discussions of making the theming system better for 6 Plasma 6 and why is that well the idea is as I said Plasma 6 is the best time to break promises and in order to improve a theming system significantly you need to break them a bit so there are ideas of improving redoing from scratch the theming system so maybe but the stuff here doesn't actually need a major version to happen more padding and consistent UI these things have been happening for years now this consistent consistency goal has fixed so many inconsistent UI layouts and paddings but it's not because there's Plasma 6 it's because we need to improve Plasma regardless of the release well paper will paper sorry saving bug fixes again this shouldn't happen on a Plasma 6.0 release there's no reason why it should be what is actually happening is that in this third people are saying what they would want KD12 but you don't need for Plasma 6.0 to actually implement those things and another thing about that is since we're using Qt6 do we get cool stuff and I mean Qt6 does have some cool stuff that's for sure however I gotta say that the coolest feature that I think could be in Qt6 is not in Qt6 yet it was promised for Qt6 and it wasn't really delivered yet but Qt6.26.3 is slowly coming and that is the QML compiling for real ish so you can actually take a subset of QML a subset of QML plus JavaScript and compile it to C++ code for better performance and I think that's super cool and given that most of KD's UI if not basically everything is QML that could be an improvement I don't want to say that it will be a revolution because it won't be and there will be work needed to actually make sure that well first of all if this will interest us right now there's no such product so who knows but if it's something interesting there will be work to adapt QML to that subset of QML that actually compiles but that could mean less RAM usage more performance we'll have to see let me just see another couple of examples yeah this is the point 4 to 5 will not smooth and the point is that 6 should be super smooth from 5 so what do I expect from Plasma 5 for the love of all that is holy that it isn't forced to be a replacement for Plasma 5 until it actually bloody works you get a point drunken coli t that's the whole point Plasma 6 doesn't wish to be the revolution which is to be a clean transition where things that are old and should be replaced are actually replaced


What's up guys take down here with another story time video for you today is episode 11 and Please don't click it out of this video because it's gonna be really funny And I hope you guys will enjoy the title is true It is a story about how I got my first black eye and it's actually the first black eye I can remember maybe before that I might have had another one when I was really young but not to my memory so this one here I remember fully and I gave myself the black eye, so that's why it's gonna be hilarious for me And it's gonna be hilarious for you, and I hope you guys will enjoy, but let's just get right into it. So This story actually starts off Yeah, it happened between the fifth and sixth grade I can't remember when but as you guys know because I've mentioned it before on this channel that I live in Canada and When I was younger we had a pile of snow Now 2018 we don't have nearly as much snow as we did when I was younger But whenever I was younger the public school had a huge paved area. The whole playground was huge actually but we had a huge paved area and they used to have to get plow trucks in and they would push it up close to the fence and It would be actually pretty high, so I would say maybe four feet five feet at some spots Almost over the fence, let's say which is pretty high So needless to say it was a lot the whole length of the fence and it used to be really fun The stuff we would do we would toboggan down it. We would slide we push people off of it Play multiple games, and it would just be a blast and so before I say about how I got my black eye I'll kind of give a back story because it'll make sense rather than me just saying exactly how I got a black eye, so Now that you know there's there's big Mountains of snow on each side of the playground what we would do is have big snow forts now We weren't allowed to throw snowballs I know that's probably what some people are thinking because back then if you threw if you were caught throwing a snowball Whatever grade you were in that's how many lines you had to write So if you're in the third grade, that's 300 lines You'd have to write if you're in the sixth grade that's 600 lines You would have to write and we never well. I never got caught. I know some people that had But we would have big forts and We would just find big boulders bring it back to our full forts and we try to build up the biggest While also destroying the other person and we'd have to defend ours So it was like a it was like a ward like castles medieval times so we try to destroy each other's forts while trying to build up ours and I was I guess I Used to have a if you're a 90s kid if you've ever heard of this Snowboards back in the day ankle with thin ones that you strap your feet on in the 90s What they were or maybe it was the 80s one, but I had it as a kid It was a thick snowboard not too long not like some of the new ones no straps on your feet There was a cord on the one end so you would hold it up with a handle and you that's what you would use to guide you whichever direction you want to go and on the bottom To help guide you in whatever direction there is two maybe three Decently long blades metal blades in there and they were a little bit sharp Yes, 90 kids had dangerous toys dangerous stuff But they don't have a lot of the stuff nowadays because it's unsafe Which kind of makes sense because I got a black eye from that but moving forward my job in these forts was to Basically collect because I had the snowboard Collects boulders and bring them back and I fit quite a few on there And I would actually pretend to be like people would know I was on one for it But I pretend that I got kicked out and I joined on this for it and they would just be like okay come We'll do whatever so I take their their boulders off their fort and put it all on this and whenever I was questioned I used to say well, I'm just putting it on this side. I was told to put it over here And it was really funny because I'd take it back to ours anyways The main part of the story is how I got the black eye and that's what I'm getting to right now Imagine this as a kid.    Most people think you've gotten a fight. No, I gave myself black eye by hitting a by taking my snowboard and Like smashing it right in my eye. I didn't hit like right in my eye hit like right below my eye That's how I got the black eye so fast for hit the eye. I could have lost my eye I could have lost vision. No, I hit like right under right on the bone God, I remember I had a big black eye. I could barely see out of it And I decided to make this as a story time because at the time it was really funny And that's what I kind of want to go for moving forward with these story time So I want some serious ones.  I'm gonna be continuing continuing to do this weekly not sure if it's going to be Tuesdays probably not by now by this video is up. It's probably gonna be still once a week But it's gonna be on different days You see my days off or what I'm gonna be uploading on because I know I'm not gonna always have Tuesdays off anymore But if you liked this video, please give it a thumbs up I'm gonna be doing more in the future and as always I will see you guys in the next video. Take care. Peace
